4) Today's Topic: Community Spread begins with you

b)How we interact with others in our community
c)How we interact with our environment
We'll do a brief overview of (a) [see tweet 3]

6) But as #COVID19 spreads hand washing as a Protection is 1 tool in a multi-layered strategy. Below are other measures we must take to help stop community spread in our own homes first. Those habits will help us stay healthy and avoid infection in our own community

7a) Once a contagious disease like #COVID19 spreads in a community the next most effective way of stopping it is through Social Distancing. Today Chicago & NY implemented different levels of social distancing. In the video below Dr. Arwady explains Level 1

7b) In #NY, a moderate level of mitigation was not enough to curb the rapid spread of #COVID19 in #NewRockelle #NY. As a result, the Gov increased the measures to a Level 3 with many closures & activated the National Guard to support the #NewYork State Health Dept. #Rockland #OC

8) Today was Italy's first day using a Level 3 Mitigation strategy - a lockdown, in order to stop the spread and reduce the deaths. This type of limited strategy has been effective in #Singapore & #Vietnam. Day 1 for Italy was not as successful. #Seattle
