Novant Health is implementing temporary visitor restrictions at its hospitals due to a rise in flu, RSV, and COVID-19 cases. Children under the age of 13 will not be allowed to visit in most circumstances to reduce the spread of respiratory viruses. Masks remain optional for visitors but are highly recommended. Novant Health advises community members to stay home if sick, get vaccinated against flu, RSV, and COVID-19, and seek appropriate care when needed.
