Three Georgia health systems have partnered on a campaign encouraging residents to wear face masks as COVID-19 cases continue to increase in the state, according to local news station WGXA.
The health systems rolling out the campaign are Macon-based Coliseum Health System, Warner Robins-based Houston Healthcare and Macon-based Navicent Health. The campaign, which utilizes television ads, social media posts and billboards, features local celebrities urging Georgians to take safety measures that slow the spread of COVID-19.
In addition to mask wearing, the campaign encourages Georgians to stay home if they are sick, follow social distancing guidelines and wash their hands regularly.
