We are monitoring CDC recommendations and adjusting our recommendations as necessary.
Everyone, including individuals with medical conditions, should use basic infection prevention guidelines, including frequent handwashing for at least 20 seconds, avoiding touching your face, staying away from people who are sick, and cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched surfaces.
