By Governor Kristi Noem With the COVID-19 situation continuing to be very fl uid in South Dakota, it is important that we all remain diligent and wise in the coming days. Common sense steps – that we all can take – should help us manage the virus’ spread. Epidemiologists refer to this as “fl attening the curve.” What that means is with social distancing (avoiding large gatherings) we should be able to slow the spread of the virus and avoid a spike in the number of people getting sick. If that happens, we should be able to avoid overwhelming the hospital systems, which is a top priority.
