What You Can Do to Prevent Illness There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person: It may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads. Older adults and people who have severe underlying chronic medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19 illness. Please consult with your health care provider about additional steps you may be able to take to protect yourself. Take Steps to Protect Yourself and Others Avoid close contact If you do have to leave your home to get food, necessary healthcare, care for a loved one, or go to your essential job. If you do have to leave your home to get food, necessary healthcare, care for a loved one, or go to your essential job. We encourage individuals who live and work in the Greater Nashua Public Health Region to stay at home, except for essential needs, to minimize the spread of COVID-19. What to do if you are sick See all steps from the CDC here Call your doctor:  If you think you have been exposed to COVID-19 and develop a fever and symptoms of respiratory illness, such as cough or difficulty breathing, call your healthcare provider immediately. Stay Home except to get medical care Separate yourself from other people and animals in your home Call ahead before visiting a doctor Cover your coughs and clean your hands often . Additional Coronavirus Resources CDC logo CDC Resources Frequently Asked Questions See also the CDC's general COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus FAQ. What is a novel coronavirus? What is the source of the virus? Will warm weather stop the outbreak of COVID-19? What should healthcare professionals and health departments do? A novel coronavirus is a new coronavirus that has not been previously identified. The virus causing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is not the same as the coronaviruses that commonly circulate among humans and cause mild illness, like the common cold. A diagnosis with coronavirus 229E, NL63, OC43, or HKU1 is not the same as a COVID-19 diagnosis. Patients with COVID-19 will be evaluated and cared for differently than patients with common coronavirus diagnosis. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses. Some cause illness in people, and others, such as canine and feline coronaviruses, only infect animals. Rarely, animal coronaviruses that infect animals have emerged to infect people and can spread between people. This is suspected to have occurred for the virus that causes COVID-19. Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) are two other examples of coronaviruses that originated from animals and then spread to people. More information about the source and spread of COVID-19 is available on the Situation Summary: Source and Spread of the Virus. It is not yet known whether weather and temperature impact the spread of COVID-19. Some other viruses, like the common cold and flu, spread more during cold weather months but that does not mean it is impossible to become sick with these viruses during other months.  At this time, it is not known whether the spread of COVID-19 will decrease when weather becomes warmer.  There is much more to learn about the transmissibility, severity, and other features associated with COVID-19 and investigations are ongoing. See the FAQ for Healthcare Professionals from the CDC for more information.
