Responding to Covid-19 April 10th, 2020
Covid-19, the virus is rapidly spread around the world at an alarming
speed. Different areas of the world are seeing different levels of impact, the
United States is seeing a steady increase in the number of confirmed cases
In the Palmer area and throughout the Valley many businesses and
individuals are deemed essential. They are putting their lives
on the frontline continue putting essential supplies on the shelves
so that people are can continue with their lives as we navigate this new
normal. From the bottom of my heart and for everyone else in the Valley, I want
to thank the men and women who are going out every day, working long hours
for days on end, working tirelessly to provide for the citizens of the Valley. We
thank you and will continue to thank you for all that you are doing for our
community.
It can be extremely difficult to find the true statistics without
having data left out or exaggerated. The sad truth is that media
hardly ever focuses on delivering the whole story, but rather delivers what is
most interesting or gauged to get a certain response. Knowing what is going
on in the world is more of a necessity now than ever before to keep our
families safe.
Through all of my own research I have found that the Center for
Disease Control’s website is very trustworthy and not media motivated. I have
also found that looking on official state websites give reputable facts and
sources for those facts, along with the steps that you can take to stay as safe
as possible during this increasingly dangerous time.
The same guidelines are being relayed; Stay at home unless you have
an essential or emergent reason to leave. When/if you do have to leave your
home make sure to maintain safe distances from other individuals, it is
recommended that a distance of 6 or more feet be left between bodys.
Continually wash your hands and use a sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol
content or more. And wear a mask in public. Stay safe!
