If you are sick, wearing a mask can help protect others from getting infected with COVID-19 and other viruses. Our offices are now requiring masks for individuals who are sick.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends wearing a mask with the best fit, protection, and comfort for you ¹. It is also important to wear a high-quality mask or respirator when you are sick or caring for someone who is sick with COVID-19 ¹. If you have household or social contact with someone at high risk of getting very sick, consider self-testing to detect infection before contact and consider wearing a mask when indoors with them .

Remember that masks are just one of the many layered prevention strategies that can help prevent severe illness and reduce the potential for strain on the healthcare system. It is also important to stay up to date on vaccines and follow other prevention measures such as washing your hands frequently, avoiding close contact with others, and staying home when you are sick.

Stay safe and healthy!
