Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

In compliance with the New York State governor’s “New York State on PAUSE” order issued on March 20th 2020, “all non-essential gatherings of individuals of any size for any reason are temporarily banned”. Therefore, Bravo Zulu’s in person training and consultation services in New York state will be suspended until further notice. Additionally, in adherence to the president’s recommendation on Monday March 16th 2020 that Americans “stop unnecessary travel and avoid bars, restaurants and groups of more than 10 people” Bravo Zulu’s in person training and consultation services throughout the country will also be suspended until further notice.  As much as our team of educators and safety consultants would like to continue serving our valued customers, heeding these VITAL, reasonable and prudent attempts to stop the spread of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) makes good sense…to all of us.

On a personal note, please pay heed to the official warnings and advisements related to this pandemic.  This is NOT “just another flu bug”.  This is a highly contagious and dangerous virus that will likely challenge our country’s ability provide lifesaving medical care to those who will need it most (especially in the urban centers).  Understand that it is going to get worse before it gets better…and it is not likely going to get better anytime soon.  So be vigilant, be patient, reach out to people who might need some help (medically, emotionally, etc), practice good sanitary habits (wash your hands, cover your cough and refrain from spitting) and most of all try to be a good human being to one another.  We will get through this.  We will.

SOCIAL DISTANCING STOPS THE SPREAD AND SAVES LIVES

And while you’re practicing “social distancing” please consider taking advantage of our ONLINE Defensive Driver’s Course (for New York drivers).  It’ll save you 10% on your automobile insurance, take up to 4 points off your driving record and occupy you for 6 hours (it can be done in multiple sessions if you want to break it up a bit).  And in all truthfulness, watching streaming video services and poking around on social media won’t save you money on your insurance or help you “survive the drive”!
