The same principles that we advised to the public:

“Avoid the 3C and Practice the 3 W” should be
adhered.

So what are the three C's and what are the three W's?

Avoid Crowded places, Confined spaces and Close conversation.
We have to practice 3W: Washing our hands, Wearing masks and also Warning about
things like cough etiquette. Not to shake hands now. Instead, just put our right hand on our left
chest to greet people

So at the facility or clinic, we also have to adhere to these principles.
We have to minimize crowding in clinics, minimize patient contact time in the clinic,
confined spaces, minimize close conversation (face-to-face conversation), minimize handling by
healthcare worker, and we had to adhere to infection control, wear PPE, and we have to warn
our staff about physical distancing (is not only for people outside, but also) within the clinics as
well. Lastly we also have to use digital technology.
