Wishing you a safe and healthy holiday
As we embark on the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, we want to let you know that we, too, feel the pain of not gathering with our families and friends like we do every year. This is not easy. More than ever, we want to express our gratitude to you for the sacrifices you are making to protect our communities from the devastating effects of COVID-19.
As we see a surge in cases, we ask that you continue to do some simple things to keep yourself, your family and your community safe.
Staying Safe Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving gatherings are a cherished tradition but can increase the chances of getting or spreading COVID-19. Learn more about lower risk and high-risk activities so you can make smart, informed choices this holiday.
A New Turkey Day Favorite?

Curbside COVID testing
If you are experiencing symptoms or if you have been exposed to someone who’s tested positive for COVID-19, you are urged to get tested. Learn about testing options, including curbside testing at Welia Health.
