鈥淭he Mask On campaign was initiated as a way to widely promote, across our county the importance of wearing a mask to slow the spread of COVID-19,鈥 she said. 鈥淭he campaign was launched as a partnership between United Way of San Joaquin County, Dignity Health and the San Joaquin County Department of Public Health.鈥
What started as a public health message that featured a cross-section of diverse influencers and leaders from all cities in the county has also included the distribution of over 200,000 masks, hand sanitizers and literature on the critical need for social distancing, the use of masks or face coverings and hand washing. The goal is to change behavior among communities or hot spots where the risk is the greatest. The campaign will continue until we see a significant reduction in the number of COVID-19 positive cases in SJ County.
