This week, the 12th, 14th and 15th floors, which Dr. Tom Balcezak said had been converted to treat COVID patients, were converted back for oncology. “It does make everyone here pleased to see these patients back where they belong,” Balcezak said.

But finally on Thursday, just days three days before Sunday’s expiration of the $83,000-a-month agreement, DPH’s acting communications director, David Dearborn, confirmed that arrangements are underway toward extending the contract with McDowell Communications Group. Still, he said, he didn’t know how much longer it would continue, or for how much more money. ....
