“Contact Tracing is key to slowing the spread of COVID-19 and keeps YOU, your FAMILY, and your COMMUNITY – SAFE”
- Contact tracing is being used by local health departments to slow the spread of COVID-19.
- Contact tracing involved identifying people who have COVID-19, people who they came in contact with, and working with them to slow or stop of the spread of COVID-19.
