Nita Ludwig, Administrator of the Rock Island County Health Department, says people taking care of someone who's sick need to know how to protect themselves and others in the household.

In addition, she says it's important to clean first, then disinfect by following the product's instructions.

Frequently, that includes making sure surfaces and other items are wet for ten minutes. Also, don't forget to vacuum, clean soft surfaces, and do laundry.
