How you can do your part to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
The CDC recommends that people wear masks in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Masks may help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus to others. Masks are an additional step to help slow the spread of COVID-19 when combined with everyday preventive actions and social distancing. It is important to always remove masks correctly and wash your hands after handling or touching a used mask.
Below are the CDC guidelines on How to Wear and Wash Cloth Masks.
