What a Difference a Day Makes

Coconut Creek, Florida Township TOWNSHIPCOCONUTCREEK.COM CitizenSEPTEMBER 2020 TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 What A Difference A Day Makes On Monday we emailed jokes, on Tuesday we did not; On Monday we thought that we were secure, on Tuesday we learned better; On Monday we were talking about heroes as being athletes, on Tuesday we relearned who our heroes are; On Monday we were irritated that our rebate checks had not arrived, on Tuesday we gave money away to people we had never met; On Monday there were people fighting against praying in schools, on Tuesday you would have been hard pressed to find a school where someone was not praying; On Monday people argued with their kids about picking up their room, on Tuesday the same people could not get home fast enough to hug their kids; On Monday people were upset that they had to wait 6 minutes in fast food drive- through lines, on Tuesday people didn’t care about waiting up to 6 hours to give blood for the dying; On Monday we waved our flags signifying our cultural diversity, on Tuesday we waved only the American flag; On Monday there were people trying to separate each other by race, sex, color and creed, on Tuesday they were all holding hands; On Monday we were men or women, black or white, old or young, rich or poor, on Tuesday we were Americans; On Monday politicians argued about budget surpluses, on Tuesday grief stricken they sang, “God Bless America;” On Monday the President was going to Florida to read to children, on Tuesday he returned to Washington to protect our children; On Monday we had families, on Tuesday we had orphans; On Monday people went to work as usual, on Tuesday people went to work as usual and they died; On Monday people were fighting the 10 commandments on government property, on Tuesday the same people all said “God help us” while thinking Thou shall not kill, It is sadly ironic how it takes horrific events to place things into perspective, but it has. The lessons learned this week, the things we have taken for granted, the things that have been forgotten or overlooked, hopefully will never be forgotten again.

According to COVID-19 safety guidelines from Cleaning agents should not come into direct contact with the monitors and the National ATM Council, users should wear disposable gloves or use instead droplets of the agent should be applied to a Microsoft fiber cloth, hand sanitizer for any contact with ATM terminals and cash. They should which can then be used to clean the monitor. also follow CDC guidelines, such as washing hands frequently with soap and water, avoiding touching one’s face, and maintaining a distance of at PCs least 6 feet from other people. Personal computers can harbor germs and viruses, and the risk rises as more people use the same device. Before cleaning a PC, unplug the device. PCs can be cleaned by using a lint-free cloth made from microfiber. Don’t use aerosol sprays or abrasive cleaning agents and don’t spray cleaners directly on the computer. Make sure no moisture enters any openings.

Laptops Often receiving daily use, laptops can be major carriers of germs, thereby potentially spreading bacteria and disease. A 2018 New York Times article recommended laptop users begin by turning the machine off and removing the battery, if easily done, then cleaning out all the crevices using canned air. The outside can then be wiped down using a microfiber cloth with a few drops of rubbing alcohol added to it – never apply alcohol directly to the computer. The screen can be wiped using a mircrofiber cloth dampened with plain water.

T h e T o w n s h i p C i t i z e n | S e p t e m b e r 2 0 2 0 33 Parent Guide to the Novel Coronavirus (2019-NCOV) Due to increased concern in the community about the spread of the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), Broward County Public Schools has developed this guide so that parents/guardians have the correct information regarding what the virus is, how to protect yourself and your child, and what to do if you suspect a possible case. The 2019-nCoV is a new respiratory virus originated in Wuhan, Hubel Province China. It is being closely monitored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Reported illnesses of 2019-nCoV have ranged from infected individuals with little or no symptoms to individuals who are severely ill. Public health officials are unclear as to how 2019-nCoV spreads from person to person. What you should know: The symptoms include mild to severe respiratory illness with: • Fever • Cough • Difficulty breathing Having these symptoms alone does not mean that someone has the virus. Symptoms may appear in as few as two days or as long as 14 days after exposure. According to the CDC, the greatest risk of infection is for individuals who have traveled to Wuhan China. These symptoms mimic flu-like symptoms and there are currently no specific treatments for 2019-nCoV. However, preventive measures for the 2019-nCoV are similar to other respiratory viruses such as the flu. What are flu symptoms? Flu symptoms can include a cough, sore throat, fever, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headaches, chills, feeling tired and may include vomiting and diarrhea. Some people with the flu may not experience all these symptoms. What if my child has these symptoms? • You should contact your healthcare provider immediately. Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen! • Parents/guardians are encouraged to keep children home when sick. What are some ways I can protect my child? • According to the CDC, proper handwashing with soap and water is one of the best ways to prevent illness. • Demonstrate proper handwashing for 20 seconds. Have your child visit https://www.cdc.gov/ handwashing/index.html to watch a video on proper handwashing. • Demonstrate to your child how to cover their nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing. They should throw the tissue away after use and wash their hands. If a tissue is not available, THEY SHOULD NOT USE THEIR HANDS. They should cover their mouth and nose with their sleeve. • Children should avoid touching their eyes, nose, or mouth. Germs spread this way. • If possible, avoid people who are sick. • Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces or objects

Virtual Gatherings Virtual gatherings are the new norm. This is a way to be with and talk to those you love while staying safe. You can do this from the comfort of your home! Video-chat apps allow you to gather socially from your cell phone or computer. Some apps used are: Facetime, Zoom, Skype, Google Duo, Facebook Messenger, and WhatsApp just to name a few. Most phones already have these apps preloaded for easy use and access. Until it is safe again for us to socialize, get in-touch with your tech-savy skills and bring your friends and loved-ones together virtually and safely.
