Don't wait to be safe
Today, Thursday, Nov. 12, is exactly two weeks from Thanksgiving. Two weeks is the general time between exposure and COVID-19 illness. That means if people are getting together with their families on Thanksgiving, today is the critical day to start quarantining or at least reining in activity. What people do between tomorrow and Thanksgiving can affect lives, hospitals, the economy, etc. If you haven't been wearing a mask in public, socially distancing and increasing hand hygiene, today is the day to start.
