Experts say the COVID-19 outbreak means you should plan additional supplies and expect changes at evacuation shelters.
Anyone who is sick is advised to contact their health care provider for further instructions and to shelter in place if possible. If this is not possible and you need to stay at a shelter or public facility, alert shelter staff immediately so they can call a local hospital or clinic. If possible, put on a cloth face covering before being physically assisted, FEMA advises.
“We’re prioritizing individual hotel rooms or dormitory-style rooms to make sure people have a safe place to stay if they can’t return home after a disaster,” Trevor Riggen, senior vice president of Disaster Services for the American Red Cross, told HuffPost.
