Intended Audience
Agricultural producers, ranchers, farmers, farm workers, veterinarians, Extension personnel, rural health care providers, and others who work in agriculture.

Objectives
At the end of the webinar, participants will be able to:

• be aware of common signs and symptoms of COVID-19
• understand the transmission risk to yourself, employees, and potentially your animals
• describe infection control principles and appropriate strategies for limiting disease transmission
• locate resources and training for ag producers related to infection prevention

If you cannot attend the LIVE event, a recording will be available shortly after the webinar has occurred.

COVID-19 is not a food-borne illness. It is extremely unlikely that someone will catch it through eating. The virus is most likely to cause illness through respiratory transmission. The routes to be concerned about include being in very close proximity to many people, or coming in contact with high touch surfaces.
