Logan
County Department of Public Health Administrator Don Cavi came to
the podium during a press conference Friday morning at the Logan
County Courthouse. In the background were Angela Stoltzenburg
representing Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital, Kara Davis with
LCDPH, Logan County State's Attorney Brad Hauge, Logan County Board
Chair Emily Davenport, Salena Matson LCDPH Emergency Response
Coordinator, and Sheriff Mark Landers.
The group was on hand to announce that the county is issuing a
Disaster Proclamation in response to COVID-19. The proclamation
opens the county up to additional resources of supplies and
equipment that will be needed if and when the coronavirus arrives in
Logan County.
Cavi reiterated that as of Friday morning, there are NO confirmed
cases of coronavirus in Logan County. Eight people have been tested.
Two were found negative and the other six test results are still
