To prevent that somebody that might need assistance does not get help we ask that the public in the area to look to their neighbors, friends, relatives and let us know if there is a suspicion of them needing support and/or help during the duration of this pandemic. This applies to both psychological support and/or help in gathering supplies to those individuals that might be in need.
