Officials say as plans are put into place to re-open businesses and facilities in phases, it will continue to be important for residents to help limit the spread of COVID-19 by social distancing, wearing face coverings in public places, washing hands, practicing good cough and sneeze hygiene, and quarantining yourself if you or another in your household tests positive for the virus.
