The City of Harrisonburg and the Central Shenandoah Health District hosted a virtual town hall meeting this week to answer some of the most frequently asked questions and allow viewers to ask their own questions.
District Director Doctor Laura Kornegay says that as a public health official, she would not ask anyone to do something that she would not have done herself.
Dr. Kornegay asks everyone to get vaccinated and also still be vigilant with the mitigation measures, including wearing masks and physical distancing until we can reach herd immunity.
Harrisonburg and the Health District will host another town hall this Saturday morning at 10 and you can watch it on the city’s YouTube channel.
Staunton City Council votes 4-3 to repeal uncodified emergency ordinance Staunton City Council [FILE] By Chelsea Church | WHSV | April 9, 2021 at 7:28 PM EDT - Updated April 9 at 7:31 PM
STAUNTON, Va. (WHSV) Staunton City Council discussed multiple measures during Thursday’s meeting that led to a split vote among council members.
The council voted 4-3 to repeal the uncodified emergency ordinance. This means the council will no longer be able to meet virtually and community members also cannot call into the meetings.
“An abundance of the vaccinations being given, and we’re starting to see business as usual coming about in Virginia,” Staunton Mayor Andrea Oakes said as a reason for supporting the vote.
