The office of Rep Lucy McBath has released a webpage with resources to help stay informed about coronavirus and keep families healthy.
Washington, D.C. – The office of Rep. Lucy McBath (D-Marietta) has released a webpage with a list of resources containing information regarding symptoms, prevention, response, and further information about the COVID-19 virus (coronavirus) as it continues to develop. McBath’s office is working with state and local partners and closely monitoring cases in Georgia.
“We are monitoring this situation closely as it begins to impact the United States, and my prayers go out to those who have already been impacted by this disease,” said McBath. “It is important that we work together as Americans and do our part to keep our families healthy, and it is critical that we fully address the scale and seriousness of this disease.”
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), located in Atlanta, considers the coronavirus (COVID-19) a serious public health threat, and it is critical to understand the disease and follow the efforts necessary to prevent its spread. McBath joined her colleagues in sending a letter requesting that comprehensive supplemental funding be made available to combat this virus and empower state and local governments during this public health emergency.
