Although promising vaccines for the coronavirus are on the horizon, it is more important than ever to stop the surge. Countries across the world are seeing cases explode. It is critical for Iowans to step up their personal responsibilities to stay safe and healthy for themselves and their loved ones. And that, of course, includes our tireless healthcare professionals--those on the frontlines, working to save lives. This virus is hitting rural and urban areas alike. No community is immune. I ask every Iowan to continue to do their part to keep their family and neighbors safe: Wash your hands; limit your activity outside your household; social distance; wear a mask. We are going to get through this together, but we need everyone to do their part. I yield the floor. ____________________
