Clean hands keep you healthy and can stop germs from spreading to others. What you need to know about handwashing: https://t.co/uXE4Y10iCK

[GaDeptPublicHealth @GaDPH]

The best way to prevent #COVID19 is to practice everyday preventive behaviors like hand washing and covering your #cough or sneeze with tissue. Hand washing & covering your mouth & disposing of tissue protects those around you from viruses like cold, flu and COVID-19. #COVID19GA

[CDC @CDCgov]

The newest CDC Health Alert Network (HAN) Update highlights the recently expanded criteria for evaluation of Persons Under Investigation (PUI) and summarizes the expanded criteria for testing for #COVID19. See https://t.co/5JZt6xpxui.

[CDC @CDCgov]

Reduce your risk of exposure to respiratory diseases, like #COVID19: wash hands often w/ soap & water for at least 20 seconds. If soap & water aren’t available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. https://t.co/qbIZmiuPwQ #SuperTuesday

[CDC @CDCgov]

The US public health response to the threat of #COVID19 has included active monitoring of people exposed to COVID-19 cases. CDC supported state/local public health officials as they tracked 445 close contacts of the first 12 US cases. Learn more @CDCMMWR https://t.co/yBJcz6Hbgu

Another day of rain. Today will also see an increased chance for severe weather as well. We're expecting the heaviest rains tomorrow evening. Stay tuned and stay weather aware. #gawx

[CDC @CDCgov]

CDC does not currently recommend the use of facemasks to help prevent novel #coronavirus. Take everyday preventive actions, like staying home when you are sick and washing hands with soap and water, to help slow the spread of respiratory illness. #COVID19 https://t.co/uArGZTJhXj

Here are our rainfall totals from yesterday. We've got some good news and bad news for you.

The good - we've got a beautiful weekend ahead.

The bad - the 0.94" Atlanta received makes this the 7th wettest February on record already, and more rain is coming early next week. #gawx

It's going to rain tomorrow (2/18). Again. We have accepted our fate and are preparing for the second coming of Cthulhu. Rain amounts will range with the highest totals across the central part of the state. #gawx
