Mission, TX- The City of Mission has launched an informational page on its website to help disseminate information about COVID-19 to its residents.
“City leadership continues to monitor the situation and as new information becomes available, we feel it is important to keep our community informed,” Mayor Dr. Armando O’Caña said. “The City of Mission is here to serve our community throughout this outbreak. Misinformation spreads quickly, and we believe it is crucial to share factual information and guide our citizens towards credible sources.”
In light of the current health events across the nation and the world, in an effort to hinder further spread of the COVID-19 virus, also known as the Coronavirus, the Alamo Chamber of Commerce will be cancelling all events through the end of April , at which time we will reevaluate the situation.
Due to number of people at the Palm View Golf Course, McAllen Mayor Jim Darling ordered that it be closed until further notice. Beginning, today, April 1, 2020, the City of McAllen has closed the Palm View Golf Course to the public.
The COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis is forcing people to distance themselves from others, work remotely, and spend time indoors and online. While social distancing is a good health practice to reduce the spread of the coronavirus, it may be helping scammers. Research from the Better Business Bureau, the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, and the Stanford Center on Longevity found that people are more likely to lose money to a scam when they are socially or physically isolated from others, if they are actively engaging online, and if they are financially vulnerable (BBB.org/ExposedtoScams).
