In order to ensure safety when dealing with viral outbreaks, it is important to practice frequent and proper hand washing, avoid contact with people who are sick, stay home when feeling ill, cover one’s mouth and nose while coughing or sneezing, disinfect surfaces regularly and regularly wear appropriate protective clothing. It is also important for individuals to be aware of the risk posed by potential exposure to an emerging infectious disease and recognize that some symptoms of certain diseases may take several weeks before they become apparent.
