Kate Brown in press release. “We have to live with this disease for a while. And that is going to require adjusting our habits — taking the simple step of covering our nose and mouth in spaces where we inter- act with others.” Incident Commander Eric Gleason with Coos Health and Wellness said this means cus- tomers will need to wear masks when walking into businesses, including grocery stores, gyms, Zach Silva, The World A bee flies near some Scotch broom flowers along a path near the North Spit. and shopping malls.
