City of San Rafael issued the following announcement on Dec. 23.
Our key message is to please keep yourself and those around you safe and healthy. Hunker down at home as much as possible with movies, puzzles, walks, books… maybe some virtual coffee with a friend or an evening virtual storytime with a grandparent! Whatever you do, think about how the choices you make about who you see and where you go will help to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, or spread it further.
The reality of virus transmission is that if someone in your family gets sick, it is most likely that the infection came from someone you know or another family member. That also means we have a lot of influence over stopping the spread.
Many people chose not to follow the highly publicized public health recommendations to not gather over the Thanksgiving holiday, resulting in a second surge and another lockdown. Let’s work together to make good choices for us, our families, and our community.
What you can do to help
- Stay home except for essential services.
- Wear a mask in public—get yourself a mask, or a few masks, that fit well and that you like, and wear one whenever you leave your home.
- Wash your hands regularly.
- Keep at least six feet of physical distance from anyone outside of your household—social bubbles and pods are no longer allowed.
We are in this together.
