3/6/2020 The health and safety of our residents is of utmost importance to Castle. We are all aware the coronavirus has spread rapidly, now in multiple countries and most recently in Florida. Castle is actively monitoring the latest guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and other public health agencies. Below is important information on prevention and precaution about coronavirus. |
| The coronavirus (officially the 2019 Novel Coronavirus [2019-nCoV]) is a respiratory virus first identified in Wuhan, Hubel Province, China. It is believed the virus spreads from person to person through coughs or sneezes like other respiratory illnesses such as the flu. Currently there is no vaccine to prevent the virus and the best way to prevent infection is to avoid being exposed to the virus. Additionally, following everyday preventive actions may help prevent the spread of respiratory viruses: |
| o Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
