For months now, our "new normal" requires taking the precautionary measures of protecting ourselves from exposure to COVID-19. Businesses have adjusted their protocols to reopen to the public, some schools are back to in-person learning or children are learning in small pods with other students, and we are starting to see more social gatherings with friends and family. However, SouthCoast Health wants to warn our patients the dangers of engaging in COVID-19 complacency.
Nationally, the number of cases reported daily are on the rise. As the winter season is approaching, our community cannot be COVID-19 complacent, especially with the start of flu season and the holidays around the corner. Please stay vigilant with your precautionary practices and encourage friends and family to do the same. As a community, our goal should be to avoid overwhelming the healthcare system with people sick with COVID-19, the flu, or both.
As a reminder, here are SouthCoast Health's recommended coronavirus precautions:
