What are the Health Protocols followed by the university?
WEAR YOUR MASK AT ALL TIMES
- Wear a well-fitted mask
- When visiting other household/s, strolling at the malls, or dropping by grocery stores, markets, or workplaces - chances of getting infected are high. Take all precautions and never let your guard down. We can't easily identify carriers of the virus - even if they are your family members.
MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING
- Don't hesitate to put a distance between yourself and people who don't live in your household.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Remember that some people without symptoms may be able to spread the virus.
AVOID CROWDS AND POORLY VENTILATED SPACES
- Avoid indoor spaces that do not offer fresh air from the outdoors as much as possible.
- Refrain from dining in at your favorite restaurants, going to shared fitness centers, and visiting banks at peak hours. Choose the take-out way, try to be a little creative in creating a DIY fitness space in your home, and learn how to transact online.
WASH YOUR HANDS OFTEN
- It is preferred to wash your hands with soap.
- It is especially important to wash:
- Before eating or preparing food
- Before touching your face
- After using the restroom
- After blowing your nose, coughing, sneezing
- After handling your mask
- After caring for someone sick
- After touching animals or pets
COVER COUGHS AND SNEEZES
- If you coughed or sneezed while wearing a mask, put on a new clean mask as soon as possible and wash your hands.
- If you are not wearing a mask (eg at home), cover your mouth with a tissue or the inside of your elbow and wash your hands immediately.
CLEAN & DISINFECT
- Clean high-touch surfaces daily: tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks.
MONITOR YOUR HEALTH DAILY
- Be alert for symptoms.
- Take your temperature.
- Learn how to properly monitor symptoms, and report health situations to proper authorities through different LGU and workplace guidelines and protocols.
GET THE BOOSTER SHOT
Although voluntary, there's no doubt that getting the booster shot can help protect you from getting Covid-19. Let us know if you are interested so we can line you up for the next booster schedule of PHINMAVax or in R1MC.
