A MESSAGE FROM YOUR COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT
Just a quick reminder that folks coming down from the New York, Connecticut or New Jersey still are required to quarantine for 14 days or duration of their stay.
For individuals who have had actual close contact to a positive case (less than 6 feet for 15 minutes), the recommendation continues to be the same: Quarantine for 14 days in your home from the date of exposure. If symptoms develop, contact your healthcare provider.

Wear masks, social distance, enjoy the fresh air, keep our vulnerable folks safe.
