Support Essential Workers
We have been talking to our customers who are essential workers, and they have told us three basic things we can do right now:
- Stay home. If you are not an essential worker and it is possible for you, please stay home. This is by far the best way to take pressure off of essential workers.
- Wash your hands. Wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds. Here's how and when to wash your hands.
- Be kind. Thank those people who are making sacrifices right now to provide healthcare, food, sanitation, transportation, and delivery. Be patient with them and with each other.
