Only a few times in history has an illness/virus spread over the world, changing the ways we interact with others and continue our daily lives. Through vigilant precautions, sound direction and (most of all) the actions of our members our small community has been relatively COVID-19 free. The Creator has been looking over us, keeping us together in this time of crisis. Hopefully, with science and the belief of positive thinking, we shall be rid of this virus sooner rather than later. Stay vigilant, stay healthy and stay safe Rama.
COVID-19 testing has been taking place in Rama since March of 2020.
