Snippets from the Age of COVID-19: May 16, 2020.
The Victoria Day long weekend has arrived. People, tired of being cooped up in their homes, are now out enjoying nature. The Provincial Parks are open in Alberta for all to enjoy. This new-found freedom, however, does not negate the responsibilities that everyone carries for preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
The COVID-19 virus has not magically disappeared. It is still very much with us. We cannot grow lax, otherwise, it will come back with a vengeance and the gains that we have made will be quickly lost.
We must continue to watch out for each other. We must continue to use effective handwashing techniques. We must still exercise physical distancing. We don't want to go back to square one! Be happy! Be safe!
