A letter to Press subscribers:

Your safety, and the safety of our employees and delivery contractors, is critically important to us.

We know you may have questions about receiving our newspaper. The World Health Organization has stated that it is safe to receive packages, even from areas where coronavirus has been reported, saying that the likelihood of an infected person contaminating commercial goods is low, as is the risk of catching the virus from a package. This includes newspapers. Our production process is mostly automated, and it’s likely that the first person to touch your paper is the person who delivers it.

We also want you to know that we are guided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations at our printing plant and distribution centers.

As a home delivery subscriber, you also have full digital access every day: visit cdapress.com and log in with your email address and the password associated with your account.

If you have questions about your subscription, wish to report any delivery issues, or make changes to your subscription, you can reach our Customer Care Representatives at (208) 664-0220, or email us at circulation@cdapress.com.

For the foreseeable future, we are offering all of our digital products at no charge to make sure our entire community has 24-hour access to local news. Please know that we will continue to work hard to deliver news you can use, whether in print, via our e-edition, our App (scan below), or through our website.

Our journalists are working almost around the clock speaking to health experts and helping readers make sense of our rapidly changing world. This would not be possible without your subscription.

Please refer to the CDC and the World Health Organization websites for updated and factual information.

Thank you,

Clint Schroeder, Regional Publisher, CDA Press/North Idaho Newspapers
