On October 20, my husband was admitted to the hospital with respiratory failure.

Covid-19 is not something to be taken lightly. It can affect us all, regardless of our age or how healthy we are. It’s up to each of us to act with compassion for our neighbors.

Strokes can happen to anyone at any time. Know the signs of a stroke and, most important, check your blood pressure regularly. One in three people have high blood pressure and do not even know it. #worldstrokeday2020

[Kentucky Department for Public Health @KYHealthAlerts]

“Flu Crews” are working across the state to ensure everyone can get a flu shot. Thank you to the Flu Crew nurses and others for a successful first event at the Clark County drive-thru clinic on Oct. 17, 2020. If you haven’t scheduled your flu shot, do so today! #IFluToo #FightFlu
