With the Coronavirus crisis still going, we must do our part in preventing it from spreading by keeping ourselves, our beloved families, our neighbors, and our communities as safe as possible.
To accomplish this, we must make the best of our situation and take advantage of alternative options. At J. Gonzalez Injury Attorneys, we plan to do our part in the best way we can, and that is by reinforcing and following the “social distancing” guidelines health officials have recommended.
Fortunately, with today’s constant advancement in technology, our team of lawyers are ready to chat with you remotely so we are perfectly capable of answering any legal questions you may have and to discuss your case.
How We Can Help Reduce the Risk of Exposure to Keep You Safe
Citizens nationwide are attempting to limit in-person contact in every way they can in efforts to slow the spread of the virus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been diligent in providing us with effective precautionary measures to adequately protect ourselves, as well as others, from exposure.
One particular safety precaution that health officials have recommended is a term called “social distancing.” In this, we distance ourselves from large social events and keep ourselves at least 6 feet in distance from others. This is said to help control and reduce the massive spread of COVID-19.
Because maintaining a safe distance from others throughout this troubling time is a good way to reduce exposure, our legal team can still be here to talk about your legal issues whether it’s over the phone or via completely free video conferencing apps like:
- GoToMeeting
- Facetime
- Skype
- Zoom
- Google Duo
- Join.me
What to Know about COVID-19
This virus has spread like wildfire, and that is why we cannot stress the importance of taking the necessary precautions to prevent its continual spread. You can get COVID-19 if you touch an item or surface that has the virus on it, and then touch your mouth, nose, or eyes. Health officials state that you are most contagious when you are showing symptoms, but you may be contagious prior to showing any symptoms as well. Getting tested, however, is the only certain way to determine if you have developed COVID-19.
Some of the major symptoms of the virus include:
- Respiratory tract infections
- Shortness of breath
- Fever/chills
- Cough
- Flu-like symptoms
- Fatigue
- Pressure in the Chest
- Headaches
- Muscle or body aches
- Sore throat
More information and updates regarding the virus continues to be released every day. If you need a credible source, do not hesitate to stay up to date with the CDC’s website.
