COVID-19 Bulletin #45 from Dare County Emergency Management

State Cases of COVID-19
In North Carolina, there are currently 5,859 cases of COVID-19 in 93 counties. There have been 152 fatalities in NC associated with COVID-19. Currently, the state is reporting 429 hospitalizations across the state from COVID-19 illness.

County’s Positive Test Results Remains at 15
The number of positive COVID-19 test results remains at 15. Fourteen have recovered/or are asymptomatically cleared (meaning they are seven days post testing with no symptoms) and one died.

Proposed State and Federal Guidance for Opening
Within the past two days, both North Carolina and the White House have released guidance on pathways to open up the state and nation. Both recognize the value the restrictive measures have had on slowing the spread of COVID-19 and both also acknowledge the significant socioeconomic impact these measures are having as well. The guidance from the state and nation is aligned with the understanding that the COVID-19 virus will be with us for a long time and the necessity of lifting restrictions incrementally. A phased reopening will help ensure that hospitals do not become overwhelmed and unable to care for severely ill patients.

Officials Continue Discussing Entry to Dare County
Locally, we are closely monitoring what is happening at the local, state level and federal level. Local officials will continue to have serious discussions about ways to most effectively balance the health of our community and the economic impacts. They will base their decisions on what is in the best interest of our community based on the scientific data including trends and models that are frequently changing, the capacity of local healthcare providers, and the ability of local merchants to provide essential goods and services.

Spread Kindness Not Germs

Yesterday, the crew at Ladles Soups OBX arrived to work extra early to put together a special lunch order for the Dare County Dispatchers and Corrections Staff. The order was paid for by a few “Outer Banks Angels.”

In addition, Ladles has also been providing meals for our first responders. Thank you Ladles! We are so appreciative of your kindheartedness.
