With pundits predicting continued exponential growth across the globe of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), which was first identified in Wuhan, China, the City of Beverly Hills is taking active steps to educate residents about the disease and what they can best do to prepare.
“While the overall risk associated with Novel Coronavirus remains low according to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), the City continues to prepare for this and all emergencies,” Director of Emergency Management, Resilience and Recovery Pamela Mottice-Muller told the Courier. “And as the City does its part to prepare, we ask our residents to remain vigilant, prepare emergency supplies, practice good hygiene and make healthy choices.”
