WV, working together, we are slowing the rate of covid-19 spread. Yesterday, our positive test rate stands at 3.8%. That is substantially below the national rate of 8-10% and of NY, at 30-50%. Our rate is steady for the last 4 days. Stay strong and keep up the great work!
In addition to issuing a "Stay At Home" order for all WVians, today I announced a combined effort between @WVNationalGuard, @WVtourism, and @WVeducation to make sure our kids are fed while schools are closed, a statewide day of prayer this WED, and more. https://t.co/6csFGQi9uO
I will address the citizens of West Virginia tonight at 7 p.m. on our #COVID19 preparations and response. You can watch our livestream on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, or your local TV station.
Tonight’s meeting will be live streamed on our website https://t.co/s8LNQIKhRX.
If you have a public comment, please submit it to [email protected] before or during the meeting.
It will be open to the public but we strongly urge the public to practice social distancing.
Caring for someone who has #flu?
1. Avoid being face to face with the sick person.
2. When holding sick children, place their chin on your shoulder so they don't cough in your face.
3. Wash your hands often and right away, including after handling their tissues or laundry.
We urge healthy individuals to give blood amid #coronavirus concerns. Low donor turnout could hurt U.S. blood supply. If you're feeling healthy and well, schedule an appointment: https://t.co/BRqQocmiWX
Heavy rain may lead to flooding tonight into Thursday and a Flash Flood Watch continues for most of the region.
NEVER drive or walk into floodwaters. It is impossible to know how deep the water is just by looking at it. Turn Around Don’t Drown! #wvwx#kywx#ohwx#vawx
With the potential for increased high winds today there is the danger for downed power lines and power outages. Remember to always assume a downed line is live and avoid going near it. Here are some safety tips!
⚠ (Part 1) Multiple accidents have been reported throughout the County. First Responders are working to clear the accidents and DOH is working to clear the roads. Continued snow and accumulation is expected.
Winter weather may cause travel problems across the northern portion of our area Monday morning. Excessive rain may cause flooding across portions of our area of responsibility Monday night into Tuesday.
