APRIL 2021Message.
Dear family and friends of DWIU:
Greetings. Every one of us have been at the frontline of this pandemic since the very beginning. We’ve donned, gowned, masked, gloved, doffed and faced this virus heroically.
It has been a crisis like none other and we all hope to never see anything such as this again.
We have all witnessed what COVID-19 is capable of doing and we have all mourned its impact in some way or another. Now after a yearlong battle, we are in a position to make things right and put an end to the spread of this unwavering disease.
I believe vaccines are a critical step in promoting the safety and well-being of family, friends and neighbors. I strongly encourage everyone to educate themselves on the COVID-19 vaccine, and make a decision for yourselves accordingly so we can transition from soft openings to full scale activities and life as we once knew it.
As always, we will continue following all guidelines and recommendations from the CDC and local health department.
Stay well.
President Chin...

Dear Members & Friends of DWIU:
The quarantine protocols have been in effect since mid-March. Since then, we’ve continued to closely monitor the local COVID-19 landscape and I’m happy to report that we are ready to relax some, but not all, of our quarantine protocols.
Our new plan depends on a lot of things —adherence to rigorous infectious disease controls, and proper PPE (personal protective equipment) usage by members and guests. Our relaxation is also limited by the directives of state and local authorities—including restrictions on social gatherings and distancing.
Collectively, each and everyone can help us progress thoughtfully, carefully and safely together. We need your cooperation in abiding by all health and safety guidelines, and your patience as we adjust to a post-quarantine world.
Regards,
President Chin
