The Lenawee County Health Department issued a statement that says, as of late Friday afternoon, they have not reported any cases of COVID-19… but with recently increased testing and cases reported in neighboring counties, it is expected that community transmission of the virus will occur.
Lenawee County Health Department Health Officer, Martha Hall, states: “It is important that the health care system remain available for those who are seriously ill and need immediate attention. The LCHD is concerned the system could be overburdened if health individuals and those with mild symptoms seek care prematurely. Individuals without symptoms do not need to be tested. Individuals experiencing mild symptoms are encouraged to remain home and call their medical provider for guidance. There are many proactive strategies we can take to slow the spread.”
All Lenawee County residents are encouraged to take every day, common sense precautions to avoid getting sick and protect others.
