重要：保持社交距离

投注网站, as well as school districts 和 businesses across Michigan, have taken the extraordinary step of shutting down to prevent the spread of COVID-19. For the community prevention strategy of closing schools 和 other facilities to be most effective, everyone who possibly can practice 社会距离 must do their part. 在他的文章中今天不是下雪天,” Dr. Asaf Bitton urges everyone to “make daily choices to stay away from each other as much as possible.通过这样做, we have a better chance to slow the spread of COVID-19 和 prevent our health systems from becoming overwhelmed with sick people.
