Stay the Course We cannot emphasize enough that to successfully transition from emergency response into long-term community recovery we must continue following the latest public health guidelines. Stay home except to meet essential needs. When you must go out, practice good physical distancing. Consider wearing a mask when in public buildings or in shared spaces to reduce the chance of you sharing germs you may be carrying.
