What are the symptoms of someone infected with COVID-19?
It varies person-to-person. But some common sign includes fever, cough, respiratory symptoms, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties. In more server situations, the infection can cause pneumonia, kidney failure, severe acute respiratory syndrome, and even death.
What do people need to know about wearing masks?
The CDC recommends you wear a cloth face covering over your mouth and nose in public where other social distancing measures cannot be maintained. It is effective in preventing the spread of the virus from people who do not have any symptoms. The cloth will help in containing anything coming from your nose or mouth and also provides some level of protection for you against viral droplets.
If you are walking outside and maintaining a good distance, it is still better to wear a face covering. Studies have proved that viral partials can travel much further than 6 feet. But, your masks cannot be a substitute for staying home or distancing.
Is ordering takeout safe? Do we need to take any extra precautions?

Here, you need to take some extra precautions: request no-contact delivery, pay with card and maintain 6 feet of distance.
After bringing the food inside, put it on a counter. Remote the food with utensils and put them on the plate. Throw away the packaging, clean the counter, and wash your hands.
