"It's up to all of us to slow the spread of COVID-19," stated State Rep. Cristin McCarthy Vahey (D-133). “Now is a time to stay home, interact only with the people you live with and go out only for groceries, medical needs and required work. Stay up-to-date with public health guidelines from cdc.gov and the Town of Fairfield Health Department. For example, the CDC now recommends wearing a cloth mask anytime you must leave your home. Even a cloth mask will help impede the spread of the virus," McCarthy Vahey added.
