Stay Home, Save Lives

COVID-19 is spreading, and you may not know you’re infected until you’ve already infected others. It’s a challenge like we as a nation—and a world—have never experienced before.

A bi-partisan group of more than twenty public health professionals has released an open letter with recommendations for immediate steps that can be taken to mitigate the worst potential impacts of this pandemic.

Fortunately, there’s something that many of us can do to help stop the spread--#StayHome and let frontline workers do their jobs.

#StayHome. It could save someone’s life. We’re all in this together.
