Since our 1/28 update, 48 additional lab-confirmed COVID-19 positive cases have been reported.
CCHD asks residents to continue following all of the safety practices we have been encouraging all along. Reduce contact and the length of time you spend with those who do not live in your household. When you are out in the community, wear a mask that goes over your nose AND mouth. Keep at least 6ft between yourself and others. Avoid crowds and gatherings. Wash your hands often or use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Stay home when you are sick. If you are in one of the eligible groups, schedule your COVID-19 vaccination.
