COVID PEEL
(Pandemic Eradication Engagement Liaisons)
Pandemic Eradication Engagement Liaisons take committed and consistent efforts to do something, anything within their means, to help end the COVID pandemic. Whether taking one recommended safety measure or all measures, every effort counts.
PEEL is not intended to push any one COVID-control measure, but to press the importance of everyone taking some level of commitment in ending COVID. No politics…Just plain population health and safety.
Protect you, protect your family, and protect whatever matters to you. It’s time to engage! Be a PEEL.
What will you do to help restore safety and prevent getting or spreading COVID in your community?
One Measure or All – Whatever You Do Counts!
PEEL Possibilities
Entities considered a part of the public health infrastructure are encouraged to require masks for all who enter public facilities. As vaccinated individuals can become positive for COVID and possibly transmit to others, masking practices should apply to all persons inside facilities. Also:
- Arrange facility furniture and equipment in a manner that allows social distancing.
- Implement frequent cleaning practices.
- Supply masks onsite for convenience.
- Ensure access to COVID testing and vaccines onsite or nearby for convenience and safety.
Consider love of family and your desire to protect vulnerable family members from COVID infection. Think about ensuring safe schools where children can go to learn.
How can we protect loved ones?
For the love of self and others, wear masks and have children wear masks when away from home or in the company of others who do not live in your home…even those who have been vaccinated. Vaccinated individuals can become positive for COVID and possibly transmit to others.
To further protect you and your family:
- Get your COVID vaccine to minimize risk of severe illness or death in case of COVID infection.
- Minimize group gatherings that don’t allow adequate distancing.
- For extra care and safety, Be a PEEL.
Businesses are encouraged to request masks for all employees and patrons inside facilities. Because vaccinated individuals can become positive for COVID and possibly transmit to others, practices should apply to all persons inside facilities. Also:
- Arrange facility furniture and equipment in a manner that encourages social distancing.
- Implement frequent cleaning practices.
- Consider virtual work and activities where feasible.
- Restaurants may consider “masks until meal” (wear masks until meal arrives, then re-mask when meal complete) for those dining inside; and space tables at least 6 feet apart to create distance.
