As a result of the positive cases, Henning says ten fire department staff members have been isolated per health department recommendations.
The chief reminds the public his personnel wear PPE’s when they respond to incidents requiring close interaction with the public, fire stations are decontaminated daily and crews are screened when they report to work to make sure they are asymptomatic.
