ACL’s COVID-19
Resources: What’s new
Face coverings to slow the spread: We've
added new guidance from CDC on wearing cloth face-coverings in areas where
social distancing may be difficult. The CDC offers suggestions on creating
your own face covering at home, including a video from U.S Surgeon General
VADM Jerome Adams demonstrating how to use a shirt and some rubber bands to
create a face covering in less than a minute.
