Social Distancing In Millbrae Slows Spread Of Coronavirus

Press release from the City of Millbrae:

March 23, 2020

While San Mateo County Health has ordered all residents to shelter-in-place, that doesn’t mean you can’t go out for essential work and to buy essential items.

When you do have to leave your home, please remember to practice good social distancing and avoid large crowds, do not shake hands with others, and keep at least 6 feet of space between you and other people.

Shelter-in-place and social distancing policies are proven to slow the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus), and will help protect you and your family from contracting the disease.

Johns Hopkins University recently published a good article on social distancing and why it’s important. To read it, please visit https://hub.jhu.edu/2020/03/13/what-is-social-distancing/.

社交距離減慢新冠肺炎 COVID-19 的傳播

儘管聖馬刁縣衛生局已下令所有居民居家防疫，但這並不代表您不能外出從事必要的工作和購買必需品。

當您必須出門時，請謹記保持社交距離，避開人群，不要與他人握手，並且您和他人之間至少要保持6英尺（2公尺）的距離。

實踐證明，居家防疫以及社會隔離政策可以減緩新冠肺炎COVID-19（冠狀病毒）的傳播，並有助於保護您和您的家人免於感染該疾病。

約翰·霍普金斯大學（Johns Hopkins University）最近發表了一篇很好的文章，介紹了社交距離及其重要性。 如要閱讀該文章，請瀏覽 https://hub.jhu.edu/2020/03/13/what-is-social-distancing/.
