Coughing can be a symptom of a positive respiratory infection. While everyone coughs to clear their throat from time to time, persistent coughing should be monitored with guidance from a healthcare provider to ensure others don’t get sick. When coughing, you should cough into your elbow, immediately wash your hands, avoid touching your face, and refrain from sharing eating utensils with others.

A social space is a gathering place where people gather and interact. It can be physical or virtual, like social media platforms. In physical social spaces there is usually a 4-12 feet distance between acquaintances. Some examples of social spaces are public places, such as town squares or parks, and others are privately owned and regulated, such as pubs and shopping malls.
Social spaces are used by various communities to conduct different types of social interaction, and it assigns appropriate places to different social relations. They can be used to implement a social cohesion in communities. As a result, the term spans greater than the dichotomy of public and private space.
Social space is perceived and adjusted depending on the situation and the level of friendship and/or understanding between people. A social spacing of 0’-4’ (0-1.22 m) between people would be considered too close. The most comfortable social spacing is typically in the range of 4’-7’ (1.22-2.13 m), while a distance of 7’-12’ (2.13-3.66 m) feels too far for social interactions.

Social distancing and physical distancing are interchangeable terms that mean keeping space between yourself and others who are outside of your home. The CDC recommends physically separating yourself from others with at least six feet, about two arms’ length, of space.
This is one of the best ways to help to slow the spread and avoid exposure of COVID-19. As the virus can spread between people before they know they are sick, physical distance from others is important even with people who may present no symptoms. Social distancing is crucial for people who are at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19.
The CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) recommended distance between people for preventing and limiting the spread of the Coronavirus, or COVID-19, is approximately 6’ (1.83 m). 6 feet (1.83 m) should be used as a minimum spacing for social distancing between people during COVID-19, and any distance less than 6’ (1.83 m) is considered 'close contact.'

Cleaning a surface with soap and water reduces the overall amount of germs, and spraying that surface with a disinfectant kills the remaining germs. The CDC recommend the use of an EPA-registered household disinfectant. High touch surfaces like tables, doorknobs, light switches, faucets, toilets, and sinks should be routinely cleaned and disinfected.
