MONTANA needs your help

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise around Montana, it's more important than ever that we all wear our masks and wear them properly. Read the sections below to learn how you can help slow the spread of COVID-19.

Why Wear A Mask?

Wearing a mask protects others around you, including your loved ones. Masks are a critical tool in reducing the spread of COVID-19. The more Montanans use them, the more protection they provide. COVID-19 can be spread by people who have no symptoms and do not know they are infected.
