If you are traveling during this global health crisis, we would like to offer some precautionary tips, to keep you and your loved ones safe and healthy during this pandemic. Because there are no vaccinations yet, the best-recommended plan of action is to avoid exposure. However, if you have to travel it is important to be well-informed. Before traveling consider these possibilities: In the event that you contract COVID-19 after your travels - are you able to take 14 days off of work to self isolate? Do you live with more vulnerable people like the elderly or people with underlying health conditions?

Here are some tips to consider if you are planning a trip.

  1. Practice Personal Hygiene

    Wash hands for 20 seconds and rinse under hot soapy water. Cough into your elbow and if you sneeze into a tissue dispose of it immediately and wash hands. Avoid touching your face.

  2. Pack a thermometer

    In the event you contract coronavirus, it is important to monitor your temperature. For more specific guidelines about this click here. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/steps-when-sick.html

  4. Pack hand sanitizer

    Pack hand sanitizer to use while you are on the airplane. Health experts recommend hand sanitizers with 60% alcohol or more. Be sure to rub your hands together vigorously until they dry. Remember the hand sanitizer bottles much be 3 oz. or less according to TSA regulations.

  5. Pack Disinfectant

    Pack travel-sized bottles (3oz or less) of disinfectant spray or wipes and paper towels. When you board your flight, be sure to wipe down your armrests, seatback trays, tv monitors and the light and air switches above your seat.

  6. Social Distance

    Be sure to distance yourself from others, keeping at least 1 meter or 6 feet between you and others. This can prevent droplets from reaching you while waiting in queues at terminals, restaurants, and restrooms.

  7. Cover your mouth and nose

    Use a cloth to cover your face, even if you don’t feel sick. This protects both you and others from getting sick. It is now evident that one can be asymptomatic (carrying illness with no symptoms). Do not cover the mouth and nose of a child under 24 months. The cloth face covering should be tied snuggly and have layers of fabric that act as a barrier. For more guidelines from the CDC click here https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diy-cloth-face-coverings.html The CDC recommends a cloth face mask and reserving N95 and surgical masks for our health care workers on the front lines.

  8. Monitor current outbreaks

    When making travel plans be sure to monitor current outbreaks in the area you are traveling to and research the travel recommendations by country: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/map-and-travel-notices.html#travel-1 For those traveling internationally, be sure to follow the country’s local guidelines for health and prevention measures.
