GovGuam has instituted COVID-19 mandatory quarantine protocol measures for all incoming travelers without health credentials.

Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero signed Executive Order 2020-05 which prohibits large gatherings and mandatory social isolation, which was put in place at noon Friday.

Person-to-person spread is thought to happen among people in close contact (about 6 feet) with each other through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes, similar to how influenza and other respiratory pathogens spread.

The government advises:

Stay home. Consider ways of getting food brought to your house through family, social, or commercial networks.

Stock up on supplies.

Take everyday precautions to keep space between yourself and others.

When you go out in public, keep away from others who are sick, limit close contact and wash your hands often.

Avoid crowds as much as possible.
