Remember: Wear your masks when you leave home! The Governor, Jim Justice, made an Executive Order today that when entering a building you must wear a mask. There are no "punishments" listed at this time, but I feel certain if individuals continue to play Russian Roulette with not wearing a mask, that Governor Justice will set in place a punishment. If he should follow the path of some other states, that could mean incarceration, and/or a penalty fine (most states that have set this law in place, have chosen $5,000 for the fine. Again, Governor Justice has not set any fines or fees or punishments into place at this time.

Please protect yourself and those you love! WHO is now saying that COVID-19 virus is indeed an air borne infection. So a mask is simple to protect us. Please wear one when you leave your home. Have a blessed evening, and may you rest well through the night. God bless!
