Wash Your Hands
Have you heard it enough? It’s vitally important to help flatten the curve. Watch the videos above to see why.
Love Your Neighbor
There’s been an upsurge in bad attitudes against certain people and places. We are all in the same boat, we are all anxious about the current events and they don’t deserve the backlash they are getting.
You can love your neighbor from 6 feet away or on the phone. Check on your elderly neighbors as well. If you are healthy, see if there is an errand you can run for them.
Don’t Fall for Scams
Don’t believe people who say they have a “cure” for COVID-19. There isn’t one. It’s a new virus. Also, take advantage of the tool out at FakeSpot to help you make informed decisions on buying products on Amazon. Remember that Amazon is full of people selling items out of their garage so look at who you are buying from. Always be wary of items that seem too good to be true!
