We are looking for a few more volunteer groups for our Jamestown race on 9/18. If you are a non-profit or team looking to raise some funds, we will make a donation to your group in exchange for a few hours of helping our runners. Earn up to $400 before… https://t.co/rP0zBjD6BN

RIDOH is partnering with three agencies—Alert Ambulance, MedTech Ambulance, and PACE—to administer COVID-19 vaccines to homebound people in their residences. If you have already completed this survey https://t.co/rBUtBslPfE, you will be contacted to make an appointment.

Officially sworn in and ready to get to work as Governor. I am honored and humbled by the opportunity to serve the people of Rhode Island at this crucial time. I will work hard on behalf of all Rhode Islanders to get shots in arms quickly. Together, we can defeat this pandemic.

We miss him already. Our friend and former colleague Bill Rappleye has passed away. Nicest and smartest guy in the newsroom. May he Rest In Peace.

Just hearing of the passing of our friend and colleague Bill Rappleye. This picture was taken on Bill's last night on @NBC10 just about a year ago. He was an intelligent, thoughtful, selfless journalist and an even better person and friend. Our thoughts are with his family.

Confused by the difference between quarantine and isolation? You are not alone. Here's what you need to know.

[Rhode Island Department of Health @RIHEALTH]

Wearing masks & social distancing help reduce your chance of being exposed to #COVID19 or spreading it to others, but these measures are not enough.
Vaccines will work with your immune system so it will be ready to fight the virus if you are exposed. https://t.co/pD5eGy0feT

[Rhode Island Department of Health @RIHEALTH]

The current spread of COVID-19 in RI (38 out of 39 cities and towns). See our updated data page for the latest numbers: https://t.co/Hk9qhqSBUI. This, RI, is why it is so important to #StayHomeSaveLives. If you're not stopping the spread, #KnockItOff!

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

I'm heartbroken that we've lost three more Rhode Islanders to Coronavirus. We are keeping their loved ones and everyone impacted by this virus in our thoughts and prayers.

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

I want to thank our local manufacturers who are stepping up to the plate and helping us get the supplies we need. If you or your company can help in any way, please do so. @RIHEALTH has created a form for donations: https://t.co/rnP0j91SYJ

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

My top priority all along has been protecting the health and safety of Rhode Islanders, just like Governor Cuomo is doing for the people of New York. No matter where you live, we know these are difficult times, and we are all in it together.

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

I am heartbroken that we have lost two Rhode Islanders to Coronavirus. We extend our deepest condolences to their loved ones, and we continue to keep those who are affected by this virus in our thoughts and prayers.

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

I want to make a note to commuters. As I’ve already said, if you’re able to work from home, you're required to do so. If you live in RI and work in another state at a job where you can’t work from home, you can go to work. But when you come home to RI, you must self-quarantine.

[Gina Raimondo @GovRaimondo]

Starting Monday, all non-essential retail businesses must shut down their stores. I don’t make this decision lightly, but I’m hearing too many reports of crowded stores. So for now, we need you to shop online to support your local retailers.

[Providence Police @ProvidenceRIPD]

We encourage anyone who needs to report a non-emergent crime to do so through our online police reporting system. In an emergency ALWAYS call 9-1-1 https://t.co/bH76I6CxBi
