  • This week, the Florida Department of Health (DOH) reminded all Floridians to protect the vulnerable by avoiding the Three Cs: Closed Spaces, Crowded Places and Close-Contact Settings and by wearing a mask in public:

    • Closed Spaces. Avoid closed spaces with poor ventilation that could allow contagious droplets to linger in the air.

    • Crowded Places. Avoid crowded places with many people nearby; the greater the number of individuals in an area, the greater the chances of COVID-19 spreading from person-to-person.

    • Close-Contact Settings. Avoid close-range conversations and stay at least six-feet from others.

  • The Florida Department of Health issued a Public Health Advisory recommending the following:

    • All individuals in Florida should wear face coverings in any setting where social distancing is not possible,

    • All individuals over the age of 65 and all individuals of any age with high-risk health conditions should limit personal interactions outside of the home,

    • All individuals should refrain from participation in social or recreational gatherings of more than 50 people.
