Don’t Let Your Guard Down
COVID-19 Infection Rates are Rising
Keep Social Distancing

Keep your circle of contacts small, even during the holidays. When you are around others, stay 6 feet apart and wear a mask.

Stay Home if You’re Sick

If you’re sick, don’t go to work or school. Get tested and isolate until you know your results. If you have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19, stay home and away from others for 10 days.

Avoid exposing the elderly and people with underlying health conditions to the virus. Instead of visiting, call. Offer help with groceries and other goods.
