Erie, PA – Erie County Department of Health and County Executive Kathy Dahlkemper teamed up with WQLN PBS to launch a new video to show children the ABCs and 123s of preventing COVID-19.
The video is intended for adults to watch along with children and discover ways to talk about what’s happening in the world and in Erie County.
The video can be found in the following places:
- YouTube: Erie County, Pennsylvania – Government
- Website: eriecountypa.gov on the COVID-19 page under “Videos”
- Facebook: @EriePAHealth and @ErieCountyPennsylvania
- Twitter: @EriePAHealth and @CountyofErie
Additional resources for children and how to stay healthy during the pandemic are available at eriecountypa.gov.
“Everyone has questions about this novel coronavirus,” said Melissa Lyon, director of Erie County Department of Health. “We wanted to find a way to reach children to help them understand what they can do to stay healthy during the pandemic. We’re hopeful this video and the resources we have identified will help adults and children with those important conversations.”
