This month, Public Health Officer Dr. Allison Berry is back from maternity leave and for her first BOCC Public Health Report in three months gave a virus and vaccine update to the Commissioners, answered KPTZ listener questions (quite a few), and talked about the confusion due to the disconnect between the two Washingtons. She also offered hope and reassurance that there are many organizations across the country and in WA State who are trying to get out science-based vaccine recommendations. Director of Emergency Management, Willie Bence offered insights about local and state wildfires too, and a few words about wildland firefighters who are now under more stress because of the increased scrutiny of ICE agents.
