To combat the spread of COVID-19, the Metro Public Health Department has issued a Safer at Home Order directing all residents of Nashville and Davidson County to stay inside their homes unless they are engaged in certain “essential activities.”
When you are outside of your home for necessary tasks, please remember to stay at least 6 feet away from others and practice healthy hand and respiratory hygiene.
Mayor Cooper announced March 31 the extension of the Safer at Home Order to April 24 to further contain and combat the spread of the coronavirus in Davidson County.
