Commissioner’s Advisory on Prevention
COVID-19, RSV and flu are spreading in NYC this winter season. We strongly recommend everyone to wear masks in all indoor public settings to reduce the spread of these viruses.
Use these important tools to fight respiratory viruses:
- Stay up-to-date on vaccinations – for COVID-19 and flu.
- Get the updated COVID-19 bivalent booster.
- Wear a high-quality mask, such as a KN95 or KF94, that covers your nose and mouth.
- Test before and after travel or gatherings, or if you were recently exposed to someone who has COVID-19.
- Stay home if sick.
- Wash your hands.
- Consider additional precautions if you are at increased risk of severe illness.
We can all work to reduce the spread of COVID-19 by staying informed and taking the necessary steps in prevention. Learn more in the pages below about what you can do for yourself, your family and your community.
