The current status as of June 5th, 2020 is:
 
  • No new PPE requests from Law, Fire, or 911. (The Health Care Community, Hospital, and EMS make their requests and receive PPE through their Health Coalitions)
  • All Public Safety Work Force surveys indicate normal staffing levels. (Law, Fire, EMS, 911)
  • No new requests for the National Guard Infection Control Cleaning Teams.
  • The National Guard Mobile Testing Teams have been terminated due to the availability of local testing at the Health Dept.
 
EMA continues to monitor the COVID-19 event and continues to poll our local agencies for their needs while making resource requests from the State as needed.]]>
