| Community Health

HARRISBURG, PA — Four Pennsylvania counties have “substantial” risk of community spread of coronavirus, according to new data released by the state this week.

The Pennsylvania Department of Health in recent weeks has been providing details on the likelihood of getting coronavirus through community transmission by county. Community spread means people have been infected with the virus in an area, including some who are not sure how or where they became infected, the Centers for Disease Control explains.

Counties are rated either low, moderate or substantial transmission risks.

Counties with low risk have had less than 10 cases per 100,000 residents over seven days or a less than 5 percent positivity rate over seven days.

The moderate designation means the county has had anywhere from 10 to less than 100 new cases per 100,000 residents over seven days or a 5-10 percent positivity rate over seven days.

Those designated as

Rabies vaccine falling from the sky in 17 Alabama counties

October 5, 2020

| Health Article

Workers are using helicopters and trucks to distribute thousands of oral vaccines across a 17-county region of Alabama to help stop the spread of rabies.

The state health department says packets containing a vaccine meant to be found by raccoons will be distributed along roadsides in populated areas including metropolitan Birmingham. Trucks will be used for that work.

Vaccine packets will be dropped out of helicopters or low-flying airplanes over forests and other rural areas.

The packs consist of a plastic satchel that contains the rabies vaccine. The shell is coated with fishmeal or dog meal, and raccoons come into contact with the vaccine when they tear open the pack with their teeth.

The health department says the contents of the packet doesn’t pose a risk of rabies to other animals or human.

“Vaccination is very, very effective, with only rare cases of rabies occurring in vaccinated animals,” Dr. Dee

PHOENIX — Arizona is reporting 705 additional COVID-19 cases and 24 more deaths as health officials say all 15 counties have cleared state benchmarks for partial reopening of certain businesses.

The overall statewide total of confirmed cases is now 219,212 cases, and the death toll 5,674.

Arizona’s Department of Health Services says the classification of largely rural, southeastern Graham County improved to “moderate transmission stage.” That made it the final county to meet criteria for reopening businesses such as indoor gyms, bars serving food and movie theaters.

One county, tiny Greenlee in southeastern Arizona, is at “minimal” status, the highest step below normal conditions.
