WCHD CONFIRMS MULTIPLE CASES OF COVID-19 IN WOODFORD COUNTY

Visit our Facebook page for the most up-to-date information regarding confirmed cases: https://www.facebook.com/woodfordhd/

While the risk to the general public is low, health officials are working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Kentucky Department for Public Health (KDPH) to identify and notify all those who may have come in contact with the infected individuals. These individuals will be monitored for fever and respiratory symptoms.

Additional details about the persons affected cannot be provided due to medical privacy laws.

“At this time, we believe the risk to the general public is low, and as this situation evolves, we will continue to communicate with the CDC, KDPH and the people of Woodford County,” said Cassie Prather, Woodford County Public Health Director. “The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, there are everyday preventative actions you can take to help prevent the spread of this virus.”

The health department offers these tips:

Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.

Stay home when you are sick.

Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.

Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.

The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person:

Between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).

Via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs.

Woodford County Restaurant Update

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear on Monday announced that he plans to order all restaurants in the state to close to dining-in, beginning at 5 p.m. Monday, March 16, 2020.

Closing restaurants and bars to in-person service

Gov. Beshear said he will direct restaurants and bars to close, although there will be expectations for drive through and delivery. The Governor urged people to order take out when possible and support local businesses and their employees.

“We are to the point now where this is a step we have to take. I want to thank everyone that stepped up and did this voluntarily,” he said. “We are asking so many people to make sacrifices. It is not lost on me that most of these are small businesses. We are going to do everything we can to be there for you. We realize the impact this will have and we will be there for you.”
