Know Your Ws: Wear, Wait, Wash
The NC Department of Health and Human Services is asking people to remember these three things as we stay strong and continue to slow the spread of COVID-19.
If you leave home, practice your Ws: Wear, Wait, Wash
- Wear a cloth mask over your nose and mouth.
- Wait 6 feet apart. Avoid close contact.
- Wash your hands or use hand sanitizer.
These actions can protect our families and neighbors as the state works to ease restrictions while the virus is still circulating.
All North Carolinians are encouraged to share this message in their businesses and through their organizations.
