ABOUT COVID-19

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is a global outbreak that has affected people in many countries, including Mainland China and the United States. Local, state, and now the federal government has since declared public health emergencies in hopes of stopping the spread of this disease.

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough and shortness of breath. If you have traveled to a country/region with cases of the new virus, and you develop symptoms, call your doctor and tell them about your symptoms and your recent travel.
