You could lower your risk of spreading the infection by practicing respiratory etiquette, said the WHO.
That includes coughing into a flexed elbow, or by regularly washing your hands.
The UK government has advised the public to remain indoors in an attempt to curb the spread of the infection.
The public have been told that they should only be leaving their home for work where absolutely necessary, to go food or medicine shopping, or for one hour of exercise.
In the UK, 133,495 people have tested positive for coronavirus, while 18,100 people have died.
