North Central Public Health District officials briefed County Commissioners on the latest in their efforts against COVID-19 as reopening occurs. District Health Officer Dr. Mimi McDonell said one of the messages they are trying to emphasize the difference between going to a location like the grocery store as compared to trying to go to a bar or other location where people congregate in tight quarters for a period of time and risk of exposure increases. District Director Teri Thalofer says she would like to see more mask wearing in public, adding it’s about protecting your neighbor and community members. Thalofer also said that working with community partners has prepared them as well as they can be for the beginning of cherry harvest and the influx of workers that will arrive in the region.
