Hey,

“Health is like money, we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it.” – Josh Billings

You've probably been following the news about the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak, as well as how and where it is spreading.
The virus is still affecting mostly in China, with some outbreaks in other countries.
The vast majority of the people who become infected experience mild illness, and then quickly recover but it can be more severe for others.
It’s best to avoid it by taking care of your health, which helps protect others, too.

Of course, life and business must go on, but for safety reasons,
This is a list of certain safety rules that we ask you to follow to stay safe and mitigate the risk of potential infection.

SAFETY RULES

-Good hand hygiene.
-Avoid touching your face unless hands are clean.
-Avoid hugs and handshakes.
-Avoid areas where people are affected.
-Make sure you get proper rest, sleep, and eat healthy to optimize your health.
-Cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze and make sure to leave the crowd. If you feel sick, please go home.
-If you have any symptoms, it’s highly important to get tested and self-quarantine.
-If people close to you have been infected, again it’s important to get tested and self-quarantine.


RESTRICTION ON MEETINGS


Follow these safety rules while attending organized meetings (BP, BPS, Events):

-No hugs.
-No handshakes (instead: lots of smiles)
-If you have ANY symptoms, you must stay home even if you are the speaker. You can use Zoom.
-People from areas with many infected cases should join by Zoom only.
-Clean your hands often.
-Cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze and make sure to leave the crowd. If you feel sick, please go home.
-Avoid close contact with other people.
-The organizer of the BP/BPS/Event is responsible for getting all door handles sanitized at the event location before, during and after every break.


Take care of your health and protect yourself and those around you.

Have a great day,
