You and your travel companions (including children) pose a risk to your family, friends, and community for 14 days after you were exposed to the virus. Regardless of where you traveled or what you did during your trip, take these actions to protect others from getting sick after you return:

● When around others, stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms’ length) from other people who are not from your household. It is important to do this everywhere, both indoors and outdoors.

● Wear a mask to keep your nose and mouth covered when you are outside of your home.

● Wash your hands often or use hand sanitizer (with at least 60% alcohol).

● Watch your health: Look for symptoms of COVID-19, and take your temperature if you
feel sick.

● Follow state and local recommendations or requirements after travel.
