Coronavirus: What You Need to Know

With the spread of the COVID-19 virus, there are some easy, practical steps you can take in an effort to keep yourself safe and prevent the spread of the virus.  According to medical experts:

• Wash your hands often with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds;

• Cover your mouth and nose with tissue or your upper sleeve when sneezing or coughing;
