Making Safe Choices
Here are some strategies to help you make safe choices to keep yourself and your family safe and healthy.

Individuals and Families

If you are vaccinated:

• You can resume most of your normal activities without social distancing. At this time you should still wear a mask indoors if you are in an area of high or substantial community transmission. To find an area's status, see the CDC's COVID Data Tracker. You should also continue to follow the guidance at your workplace and local businesses and adhere to other requirements that are still in place.
• Continue to follow everyday prevention measures:
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
  • Stay home when you are sick and get tested if you have symptoms of COVID-19.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

• Get vaccinated for COVID-19. All of the vaccines that have been authorized in the United States are safe and effective. Find information and local vaccinators at RockCountyShot.com.
• Continue to follow CDC guidance to prevent getting sick. This includes wearing a mask and social distancing when in public.

  • People at higher risk include:
    • People 60 and older
