Fourth of July Holiday Celebrations
With the Fourth of July holiday weekend approaching, CCHHS wants to remind everyone to continue following preventative actions such as keeping 6 feet of space between you and others, wearing a face covering, washing your hands often with soap and water for 20 seconds, staying home in you are sick, and avoiding large group gatherings to slow the spread of COVID-19.
If you are planning to host a small group gathering to celebrate the holiday, host it outdoors if possible. Remind guests to stay home if they are sick and keep a list of attendees in case it is needed for contact tracing purposes in the future. Require guests to wear a cloth face covering and encourage them to bring their own food and beverages.
More tips can be found at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/daily-life-coping/personal-soc...
In observance of Independence Day, the Quad-County COVID-19 Hotline will be closed Friday July 3 and Saturday July 4. It will reopen Monday July 6 at 8 a.m. The phone number is (775) 283-4789.
