Public health districts across Virginia announced Sunday that they have activated public health call centers to answer questions and provide information about COVID-19 and related issues.
These questions and answers include symptoms of the disease, how to minimize the risk of exposure for yourself and your loved ones, local and statewide conditions, testing resources and how they are used, and what to do if you think you may be ill.
It will be most helpful to contact the nearest public health center.
