HOW TO PROTECT AGAINST INFECTION
Here are things you should be doing now to protect against infection:

  • Wash your hands many times during the day with soap, preferably with hot water for at least 20 seconds.
  • Use hand sanitizer.
  • Cover your face with a tissue or your arm if you are about to sneeze or cough. Do not cough or sneeze into your hands, and do not touch your face or eyes without first washing your hands.
  • Avoid contact when greeting people – so a nod is better than a handshake or kiss.
  • Clean shared workspaces with alcohol or bleach wipes, since this virus can remain on smooth surfaces for 9 to 14 days
  • Also, if you have a fever, body aches or other flu symptoms – or if a child or other member of your family has symptoms – again, stay home and call your doctor or visit a clinic or hospital to get tested. 

NEW TRASH CANS AND SIGNAGE AT BUS STOPS IN DISTRICT 10
Commissioner Souto is in the process of installing additional trash cans to all bus stops in District 10 and installing new signage to identify those Bus Stops that are used by the Westchester Circulator "Route 82" El Rapido.
