Steps of Precautions-

Vaccines remain the best shot against the battle with the virus. This health measure has shown to be an effective tool to protect people, slower down the rate of transmission, and reduce any likelihood of the emergence of newer variants. It also helps prevent serious illnesses. Get yourself vaccinated, fully vaccinated, or get booster shots, after the initial vaccination. Wear masks, it is not over yet. Wearing masks outdoors or in public where chances of transmission are high is necessary. Wear the right type of masks, regardless of the vaccination.
Get tested if you observe any symptoms. You might be asked to have additional testing done if needed.
