CDC expected to issue new guidelines aiming at preventing parks from becoming viral hotspots as Americans seek time outside as a break from staying at home.
March 26, 2020, 3:17 PMSocial distancing is a public health intervention.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is expected to issue new guidelines on Thursday aiming at preventing parks from becoming viral hotspots as the novelThe National Park Service, as well as state and local recreation departments, have closed some parks or areas of parks to protect visitors and staff from coming in close contact with one another -- but in many national parks, outdoor spaces have remained open.
Tune into ABC at 1 p.m. ET and ABC News Live at 4 p.m. ET every weekday for special coverage of the novel coronavirus with the full ABC News team, including the latest news, context and analysis. Vice President Mike Pence said that new guidance will be released by CDC as many fear that these areas -- which have seen a surge of visitors in the last few weeks -- could become breeding grounds for the coronavirus.
“It would be several weeks ago that our park service waived all entrance fees and we directed the CDC to provide us guidance for how people can still practice social distancing and common sense but be out of doors and enjoy our natural parks. We will be sharing our guidance with state park systems around the country and encouraging their support,” Pence said.
