2 COVID-19 Safety Information

HELPFUL SAFETY REMINDERS AGAINST COVID-19

• Wash your hands frequently for at least • Clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces
20 seconds and practice good hygiene daily including phones, remote
controls, counters, tabletops, doorknobs,
• Wear a mask or facial covering over your bathroom fixtures, toilets, keyboards
nose and mouth in public settings and and tablets
around others who don't live in your
household • Stay home if you are feeling sick
• Get tested if you are experiencing
• Keep a social distance of 6 feet or more
from others when you leave your home COVID-19 symptoms

• Cover your nose and mouth with tissue
or sleeve when sneezing

COVID-19 VACCINES

COVID-19 vaccines are available in Stark County as a defense against the virus. No
matter which one dose or two dose vaccine that you are able to get, they will help
defend you against COVID-19. Anyone that wants a vaccine will be able to receive one,
it just takes time due to the volume of residents that want one and the limited quantity
of vaccines sent to the providers in our county. Call your local health department to
schedule an appointment.

COVID-19 RELATED SCAMS

Be aware and cautious of three major scams related to COVID-19 about vaccines,
social security or unemployment benefits. Local health departments will never ask
for your social security number or banking information over the phone or in person
at a clinic. If you or someone you know receives a call, the COVID-19 Response Team
of Stark County asks you to report it. Please call the Statewide Terrorism Analysis
and Crime Center (STACC) at 877.647.4683 or to the Stark County Sheriff’s Tip Line at
330.451.3937. We owe it to one another to prevent these scams.
