Lenoir County’s public health director says the three patients are in recovery. Health department and EMS workers are also taking measures to keep the public and staff safe
“They’re in various stages of recovery. They are doing fine right now, they’re doing okay. We do have some that are coming out of that isolation and quarantine time and we are really expecting all three to make a full recovery,” said Pamela Brown, director of Lenoir County Public Health Department.
Lenoir County health workers are doing contact tracing connected to those 3 positive cases. They are also practicing containment measures. That means they’re monitoring people currently under testing, people who have tested positive or ones who’ve recently traveled.
If we can keep those interactions from happening we can keep other people well,” said Brown.
