It is important that we all do our part during this curveball that the Coronavirus has thrown us. Being educated about the virus is probably the most important.
Below is a list of helpful links about COVID-19, what it is, what are its symptoms, and what to do if you feel you have any of those symptoms.
The first on the list, we consider to be the authority on the subject, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The rest of the links are of local government sites. They stay up to date on what’s happening as well as the measures that are being taken to help keep us all safe.
Finally, let me say that our hearts go out to all those affected by COVID-19 (Coronavirus). We recognize that this is a challenging time for all, and we remain deeply committed to the safety of our customers, teams, and local community.
