Medical professionals in NYC share how they try to avoid bringing coronavirus home: “The best thing to do is basically staying far away. We FaceTime each other when we have something to say and we’re in the same house,” one paramedic says.
“It’s very hard because you're already social distancing -- at home, imagine social isolating,” they said.
For those living in a house with an elderly or a vulnerable person who requires physical assistance, the resident said the ideal situation would be having one or two people designated for that person's care, “to be sure that person doesn't have any contact with any other people who might be at risk.
Those believed to be sick should wear masks whenever possible and people should avoid having unnecessary visitors to their homes, the CDC said. “Everything the person touches, clean up after yourself. It could be as small as flushing the toilet, you touch that knob to flush it, clean it up ,” the paramedic, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said.
