Please follow these steps to protect yourself against COVID-19:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Put distance between yourself and other people.
- Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care. Call your medical care provider first if you are experiencing any symptoms related to COVID-19.
The Village is committed to keeping our residents safe and informed. Please be aware that this is a fluid situation and we will continue to share updates along the way.
