Preventing the spread of flu and Corona virus

Other critical infrastructure, such as law enforcement, emergency medical services, and transportation industry may also be affected. Health care providers and hospitals may be overwhelmed. "

...Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at home, work or school...
