CHW release – Coos Health & Wellness wants to remind you that this year, it is more important than ever to put safety first. COVID-19 cases have risen recently and this brings concern that traditional fall activities like family gathering or social events and travel outside of the area may lead to additional cases. Other holiday gatherings on Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day led to increased case counts. So, this Halloween, be extra mindful of your choices. Choosing low risk events and plans can help to prevent the spread of COVID-19 illness, decrease the impact on Oregon’s health care system and save lives. It is up to us, as a community, to be the best public health stewards we can be. If you have any questions regarding COVID-19, please visit our website HERE for the most recent guidance, or email us at covid19.questions@chw.coos.or.us.
