COVID-19 Q & A Resumes: Dr. Shames Returns

Alexey_Hulsov/Pixabay

When businesses in Jackson County began to reopen on May 15th, just 50 COVID-19 cases were known to health workers. Within the next two weeks, the number shot past 65.

Health workers here and around the world remind us that curve flattened or not, the total number of cases continues to rise. And there is no vaccine.

Dr. Jim Shames, Jackson County's Medical Director, resumes his visits with us to answer questions about virus, disease, and progress. Join in with a question at 800-838-3760 or JX@jeffnet.org.
