Please do your part to protect your neighbors, friends, and family. Wear a facial covering, practice 6 feet social distancing, and continue to wash your hands frequently. This is not related to a political agenda. This is related to protecting the public’s health. There is no shame in wearing a mask, and it does not mean you are affiliated with a certain political party. It simply means you are stepping up and doing what you can to prevent more folks from getting the virus so we can get through this troubling time. No one is enjoying Covid-19 in 2020.
