Precautions: Normal precautions should be taken. Make sure everyone is vaccinated for pertussis, keep visits to immediate family only (grandparents, aunts, uncles), no children under 12, everyone must wash hands and wear masks, Ask about travel and exposure (ie/ socials, crowds, protests), ask about symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, nausea, etc). No kissing the baby! Sanitize after they leave.
