Macon County Health Department Public Health Administrator Brandi Binkley issued the following statement Thursday encouraging people to follow guidelines and prevent the spread of COVID-19:

"It is imperative that we all consider ourselves at risk for exposure to and contraction of COVID-19. As a community, we must all take ownership of this situation and act as though we, too, are on the frontline…because we are. We all have the power to turn our everyday actions into a first line of defense against the contraction and further spread of this virus. This means that we must take social distancing seriously, stay home as often as possible, and self-monitor for symptoms. Maintain distance from everyone who is not a member of your immediate household. Follow the precautionary measures – thorough and frequent hand washing; using a mask to cover your face in public and congregate settings; self-monitoring your own health condition – at every opportunity. If you are experiencing symptoms with which you are concerned, please call your primary care physician. Use technology and social media for the good and to your advantage – circulate credible information, stay in touch with friends and loved ones, and find creative activities and new meals for your household to try. We must make sacrifices, however difficult they may be, in the short-term for the benefit of the long-term. Everyone has a role to play."
