Officials are holding their breath while they wait to see what happens with COVID-19 in Haines in the wake of widespread flooding and landslides that have displaced at least 50 residents and brought a large number of volunteers and emergency workers into the community in the past week. I don t know how we re going to get out of this without active cases, Haines Borough interim manager Alekka Fullerton said. It s front and center in my mind, every day. Every day that we still don t have any active cases in Haines, I m doing a little happy dance.
