COVID-19 Information

We at Baltimore SourceLink have created this portal of resources specific to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak to help you stay informed, safe, and sane.

As COVID-19 progresses and communities become increasingly concerned with ways to slow and manage the spread of the virus, many startups and small businesses are suffering through a loss of sales, a decrease in supplies, responsibilities associated with employment, and concerns for their own health and safety.
