Attention to hygiene is important. We encourage travelers to follow the safety outlines as provided by the Centers for Disease Control and the Sonoma County Health Officer: On June 18, the state of California released new guidance mandating the use of cloth face coverings by the general public statewide when outside the home, with limited exceptions. You should wear face coverings when in public places, particularly when those locations are indoors or in other areas where physical distancing is not possible. Wash your hands frequently with an alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water. It is suggested that a 20-second washing is appropriate. Maintain social distancing. Stay at least 6 feet from anyone who is coughing or sneezing. Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. The virus enters the body through these three areas.
