BROOKVILLE â Director of Emergency Services Tracy Zents gave an update on Jefferson Countyâs COVID-19 numbers, and shared how the holidays have and will continue to impact these numbers.
The total COVID-19 cases for December, as of the meeting, were 572 cases. Zents said the number of cases are starting to come down, with a peak around Dec. 7 with more than 50 new cases.
He also said they are working with the long-term care facilities in the county as they are seeing an increase in cases as well. Zents believes about 80 percent of the EMS calls dispatched daily are related to COVID somehow.
