Continue to stay home, stay healthy

In an update on the response to COVID-19 in Snohomish County, County Executive Dave Somers and Health Officer Dr. Chris Spitters emphasized the importance of everyone continuing to stay home and stay healthy in order to continue the progress our community has made in our fight against COVID-19. Staying home and practicing social distancing is working, but the public health risk is not over and it’s vital that everyone continues these efforts to keep our community safe and healthy.

 
Find information via Washington 211

The state Department of Health is partnering with Washington 211 to answer questions about coronavirus and better provide community members with information. Washington 211 replaces the department’s novel coronavirus call center. Callers can continue to dial 1-800-525-0127 and press # to be transferred to Washington 211. Callers can also text the word “Coronavirus” to 211-211 to receive texts with links to the latest information on COVID-19, including county-level updates, and resources for families, businesses, students and more.

Visiting parks during the pandemic

When the sun comes out and temperatures warm up, the outdoors may be calling. Exercise is an important part of health and wellness, but exercising responsibly during a pandemic is vital to the health and safety of our community. Before heading out for some fresh air, we ask community members to be mindful of changes to our parks and follow public health guidelines from state and local health officials.

Do ride your bike
Do walk your pets on a leash
Do go for a walk

Do:

  • Stay close to your home. If you have to take a car, it’s too far.
  • Limit your park use to short walks, runs or bike rides through open areas and trails.
  • Keep pets on a leash.
  • Maintain social distancing of at least 6 feet from others.
  • Pack it in, pack it out. Take your trash and belongings home with you when you leave.
  • Follow public health guidelines and the governor’s stay home order.
Don't drive to the park
Don't gather in groups
Don't leave your trash at the park. Take it home with you.

Don't:

  • Don’t park in front of park gates or other no parking areas – it is prohibited and may result in a fine. Emergency services need access at all times.
  • Don’t enter closed areas. Playgrounds, picnic areas, bathrooms and active recreation areas, like sports courts, ballfields and skate parks, are closed until further notice. Many of these are high-touch areas where social distancing is difficult.
  • Don’t gather. This includes having a picnic or playing a game of ball or frisbee with your friends. Park use should be limited to walks, runs and bike rides with members of your immediate household only.
  • Don’t leave your trash in the park. Take it with you to throw away at home.
What you can do

Let the bunny come to you this holiday weekend

Holidays look a little different this year for many of us. Although the sunshine and festivities will be tempting, it is more important than ever that we all continue to stay home, safe and healthy, and work together to flatten the curve. This year, stay home and let the bunny come to you. Host egg hunts at home instead of the park, connect with friends and family virtually, and only go out for essential needs like groceries and medical care. If you have to go out for essentials, avoid groups, cover your face, stay 6 feet from others and wash your hands.

Stay home and let the Easter bunny come to you this year

Make and donate face coverings

CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. Wearing a face cover can help reduce the likelihood that you are spreading COVID-19 in the community. If you can make face coverings for your household, check with your neighbors to see if they need help. Many don’t have the equipment, supplies or knowledge to make a face covering. Lastly, we encourage you to make face coverings for the Everett and Snohomish County community. Learn how to make, donate and use face coverings in Snohomish County.
