(Indianapolis, Ind.) – Help “spread the word, not the virus.”

This simple message is one that the Indiana State Department of Health is trying to send to all residents of the Hoosier state with their #MaskUpHoosiers initiative.

The ISDH says that everyone wears a mask to protect someone- whether it’s for your grandparents, your kids, or the strangers in line at the grocery store.

Hoosier are encouraged to share an image of themselves wearing a mask and answer the question: who you wear your mask for?

You can help spread the word by downloading #MaskUpHoosiers tool kit at coronavirus.in.gov.

To date, Indiana has reported 48,626 positive COVID-19 cases (314 new cases on July 6) and 2,524 deaths.
