The Warm Springs Covid-19 Response celebrates with our Community- low positives for the week. We worked hard to get to these lower numbers and let’s keep on grinding to: wear masks, social
distance, avoid gatherings, wash hands often, avoid hot spots and if sick, stay home. If told by
Community Health nurse to ISOLATE or QUARANTINE—follow directions.
