Preventing The Spread of Respiratory Viruses When You’re Sick 

Using precautions to prevent the spread of respiratory viruses when you are sick is a core prevention strategy to lower risk from respiratory viruses. Updated CDC guidance when people may have a respiratory virus is as follows: 

●Stay home and away from others (including people you live with who are not sick) if you have respiratory virus symptoms that aren't better explained by another cause. 

● You can go back to your normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, both are true: 

     ○ Your symptoms are getting better overall, and 

     ○ You have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication). 

● When you go back to your normal activities, take added precaution over the next 5 days, such as taking additional steps for cleaner air, hygiene, masks, physical distancing, and/or testing when you will be around other people indoors. These additional precautions are especially important to protect people with factors that increase their risk of severe illness from respiratory viruses.
