2. Ensure to pack face masks and alcohol-based hand sanitizer, cleaning supplies and disposable gloves so you can use them during your trip and if you'll be staying at a hotel

3. Bring prepared food and water to take on the trip. This is especially important in case access to restaurants and grocery stores is limited.
