Pharmacists are vital healthcare resources in their communities.
That’s why we've joined forces with @novascripts to train pharmacists to provide sound health information, starting with flu.

A1: Getting a #flu vaccine this season can help reduce the burden on our healthcare systems responding to the #COVID19 pandemic & save medical resources for care of #COVID19 patients. If you haven’t gotten your flu vaccine yet, get vaccinated now! #SaludTues #FightFlu #StopTheFlu

A6 Chances are you’re already staying home most of the time. But if you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, you really need to stay home for 14 days. #SaludTues
A6 Because COVID-19 can be spread by people without symptoms, we can’t wait for symptoms to change our behavior. We need to take swift action if we have been exposed. #SaludTues #JuntosStopCovid salud.to/juntosstopcovid

#SaludTues #JuntosStopCovid A5 Well I still don't think it is a good idea to have big gatherings, even if it's family members. I do see my daughter and grandkid's, we watch them while the parents at work. But we take precautions when going out.

A5 You may not be at a crowded public place, but all get-togethers are risky right now. #SaludTues
A5 A case study found that one family gathering where people did not wear face masks or practice physical distancing resulted in the spread of #COVID19 to 41 people. Fourteen people infected at the gathering spread the disease to another 27 people. #SaludTues
NOVA ScriptsCentral retweeted
A5: If getting together with familia, reduce risk of spreading possible infection:
* Wear masks
* Ensure open windows with good airflow or be outside
* Wash hands
* If possible, get tested beforehand
* Take these extra seriously if with elderly or immune compromised.

A5: Risk reduction is about deliberate and intentional behaviors. Placing oneself in situations that create poor behaviors is a great RISK. Social distance, masks and proper mental covid competence is key. WE ALL CAN GET IT. @SaludAmerica #saludTues
NOVA ScriptsCentral retweeted
A5 While there are a lot of unknowns, we see COVID-19 occurring here, in our backyards.
We have to make some temporary adjustments to protect our families and our future. #SaludTues
A5 Juntos─together─we can each do something to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
The surest way is to stay home and avoid public places.
Stick to virtual get-togethers with familia!

A4: Face masks are important to slowing the spread of #COVID19 and have been shown to be extremely effective! As demonstrated in @MMWR, infection can be prevented by wearing face masks. 😷Combined w/social distancing & handwashing, can significantly reduce the spread. #SaludTues

A4 “I have five faces masks, and they are all cotton, so I try to be washing them every day,” says Dolores Garcia. 👏👏#SaludTues #JuntosStopCovid
A4 “Wearing a mask is a Win-Win situation,” says Edgar Munos. “For a guy like me, it’s protecting me from getting the virus, but is also related to respecting others.” #SaludTues #JuntosStopCovid youtu.be/JCegOrV2F5U
