You can make sure your home follows building codes.
It is very unlikely for a tornado to directly knock down a 5-story brick building. Tornadoes are typically capable of causing significant damage to structures, but the structural integrity of a 5-story brick building would make it highly resistant to collapse from a tornado.
A tornado rips building by the wind speeds and other debris that the tornado is swirling around, so there are lots of things that a tornado can do to a building.
people get injured or killed in a tornado whether they were close from the location of tornado or they have poor building anchorage so this poor building will destroy which will hurt or kill the people inside that building.

Unfortunately there is no way to prevent tornado damage, but it can be reduced with improved building standards.
Concrete is used in building a skyscraper to help make it wind proof and able to support its own weight. The building can also be earthquake safe when rods are put through the concrete to make it stable.
When you see a tornado, go into a secure building or if there are none near you, huddle in a nearby ditch.
The best place to be in a tornado is in an underground shelter, preferably one not directly beneath a building.
People can limit tornado damage by building home to higher construction standards.
If you are too high to get to the bottom floors, go to an interior hallway or better yet, a stairwell towards the middle of the building. The idea is to put as many walls between you and the tornado as possible. Stay away from windows as the greatest threat in a high rise building in a tornado is flying glass.
