SOCIAL DISTANCING STILL MATTERS. According to the health department, Kentucky is still early in its response to the threat of the Coronavirus, and social distancing is still the most powerful tool we have to fight the spread of the virus.
By continuing to employ social distancing, we can dramatically reduce or prevent the spread of new infections.
