COUNTY TO CONSIDER MEDICAL EMERGENCY DECLARATION

While no novel coronavirus cases have been confirmed in San Bernardino County, the board of supervisors will consider declaring a health emergency at its meeting today. The declaration is a proactive measure to help the county get additional dollars to help with preparation efforts. Supervisors will also hear an update from county health and public safety officials. That discussion will include additional steps the county could take to limit the spread of the virus, known as COVID-19.
