At Angelina College, we take pride in looking out for one another. Our most recent challenge is protecting ourselves and our community from COVID-19. To assist in this goal, we can take several simple steps to ensure this year is safe, productive, and free of speed bumps.
- Get vaccinated for SARS-CoV-2.
- The COVID-19 Vaccine is the most effective method of protecting you and those around you.
- Wear a face mask when indoors
- People at high risk or who have weakened immune systems may NOT be protected even if they’re fully vaccinated. However, a face mask can help to protect them.
- Social Distancing
- Maintaining a distance of six feet can protect yourself and others from the potential spread, which is very important for those at high risk of getting sick.
- Wash your hands often for 20 seconds at a time
- Its especially important to wash before eating, touching your face, using the restroom, leaving public places
- Hand sanitizer will work if you’re unable to wash your hands
- Monitor your health daily!
- Be alert for symptoms. Watch for fever, cough, shortness of breath, and other COVID-19 Symptoms.
- When Sick, Stay home.
- Except to get medical care!
- Stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. Use over-the-counter meds to help with symptoms.
- Separate yourself from others to protect them from potentially getting sick.
