At a trade show a few years ago the e-learning company Pluralsight was
handing out webcam covers. You stick this over the camera, and it has a
shutter which slides out of the way when you want to use it. It works
very well. These are sold for under a dollar.

Unfortunately there's no easy fix like that for the microphone.
You could open the laptop and destroy the microphone, then plug in an
external one when required. The sound from internal microphone is not
usually very good anyway.
