While we learn more and more about COVID-19 each day, there are still many questions about daily life and how to best stop the spread of the virus. First and foremost, the most important information has not changed:
– Wear a face covering
– Physical distance at least 6 feet
– Frequent and thorough hand washing
Our staff continues to monitor the situation around the clock. We are working diligently behind the scenes to help protect our community and maintain services. For your convenience, we have compiled a resource guide to frequently asked questions.
If you have a specific question not covered in the links below, please call the Southside COVID-19 hotline (757) 683-2745 for the fastest result. Due to the sheer volume of cases, we cannot guarantee your inquiries to our Chesapeake Health Department staff will be answered in a timely fashion. The Southside hotline is open Monday through Friday from 9:00am to 12:30pm and from 1:30pm to 5:00pm. Messages will be monitored over the weekend and answered as soon as possible.
