Con septiembre designado como el Mes Nacional de la Preparación, la Agencia de Manejo de Emergencias y Seguridad Nacional del Condado de Shelby se ha asociado con el Departamento de Salud del Condado de Shelby, el Departamento de Bomberos del Condado de Shelby, el Departamento de Bomberos de Memphis y las alcaldías de Arlington, Bartlett, Collierville, Germantown, Lakeland y Millington para regalar mascarillas infantiles.
Los niños son nuestro tesoro más preciado y debemos cuidar de ellos y protegerlos durante esta pandemia del COVID-19. Muchas de las mascarillas para niños que están a la venta son muy grandes y no se ajustan bien a la cara de un niño. En cambio, las mascarillas que nosotros estaremos distribuyendo son especialmente diseñadas para los niños y vienen en un tamaño que se ajusta perfectamente a las caritas de casi todos los niños.
Los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades recomiendan que los niños de 2 años en adelante usen mascarillas cuando estén en un sitio público para protegerse del virus. Por lo mismo, este sábado, 26 de septiembre, de 11 AM a 3 PM, se estará distribuyendo mascarillas infantiles en diferentes lugares del condado. A continuación, presentamos la lista de los sitios de distribución:
