2. Can you tell me where the Presumptive Positive Cases in Miami-Dade County are located?

The Florida Division of Emergency Management publishes a daily report of cases at  www.floridadisaster.org/covid19 that breaks down location to a municipal level.

3. I have symptoms - what do I do?

Per the Florida Department of Health, you should call your healthcare provider for medical advice if you think you have been exposed to COVID-19 and develop a fever and symptoms such as cough or difficulty breathing.  Emergency warning signs of COVID-19 may include shortness of breath, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, persistent cough, fever, body aches and fatigue.  Remember that having any of these symptoms does not mean that you have COVID-19, but it is imperative that you notify your healthcare professional.

4. I am considered at risk - what do I do?

Older adults and people who have chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes and lung disease are considered “at risk”. Here are some things you can do: stock up on supplies, take precautions to keep space between yourself and others (social distancing), keep away from others who are sick, wash hands often, avoid crowds, avoid cruise travel and non-essential air travel and finally stay home as much as possible during the outbreak to reduce your risk of exposure.
