WASHTENAW COUNTY, Mich. – School administrators and individuals from the health department in Washtenaw County signed a joint letter to the community to follow COVID-19 protocol. Norman, along with other school administrators throughout the county signed the letter as a call for action in the community. “We worked with our Washtenaw County Health Department and our local public private and charter schools to craft a communication to our community -- to let them know how important it is to take care during COVID-19,” Norman said. It also reduces the chances of people becoming infected with both flu and COVID-19 at the same time. Being outdoors in an open space is safer, and the Washtenaw County Health Department recommends avoiding being in small rooms with poor airflow with non-household members.
