General hygiene rules:

• Wash your hands after using the toilet, before eating, and if you cough/sneeze into your hands (follow the 20-second hand-washing rule). You can also use the sanitizers you’ll find around the office.

• Cough/sneeze into your sleeve, preferably into your elbow. If you use a tissue, discard it properly and clean/sanitize your hands immediately.

• Open the windows regularly to ensure open ventilation.

• Avoid touching your face, particularly eyes, nose, and mouth with your hands to prevent from getting infected.
