Louisiana Governor Encourages Citizens to Download COVID Defense App
Governor John Bel Edwards is encouraging you and me to download the COVID Defense App while we continue to battle the coronavirus here.
The app notifies you of potential COVID-19 exposures in your area and they hope that this latest tool will help the state rebound while still in the global pandemic.
Gov. Edwards says in the video below that the app is free to download and that the app will not track you.
This latest tool will help protect you as we navigate through these very challenging times, but will do you get it and will you use the app?
The governor of Louisiana has issued the challenge, are you up to it? For more information on this visit, coviddefensela.com
