Hi,
Don't worry..
Those who are in high risk group (kids, older age group, Pregnant woman and those with underlying chronic illness) need to be extra careful.
Avoid contact with patients. Frequent hand washing.
These high risk group people may need prophylactic medication for prevention if they are in close contact with patients.
