This is a message from the Wyoming County Health Department regarding today's confirmed COVID-19 class:
On March 17th, the first case of COVID-19 was confirmed in Wyoming County from a resident in the Northwest part of the County. The individual is in under mandatory quarantine, recovering at home.

There are additional test results pending over the coming days, and updates will be released as additional information becomes available.
In the meantime, if you are experiencing symptoms and have travel history or an exposure to a confirmed case, contact your healthcare provider. Please, do not go to the ER unless it is a true medical emergency.
Remember, most people with COVID-19 can recover at home. It is important to follow recommendations to slow the spread of illness, including avoiding crowds and good hand hygiene. Please check on community members that might need assistance, be a good neighbor - this is what we do in Wyoming County. Thank you to everyone who has offered to volunteer their assistance. A future update will give more information on how to volunteer where you are needed most.
Residents are urged not to respond to unreliable information. Consult the CDC and NYSDOH websites for federal and state updates and the Wyoming County website for daily local updates. Call the NYS COVID-19 hotline at 888-364-3065 with general questions.
Finally, our lives have certainly been interrupted by all these changes – things definitely look different than they did just a couple weeks ago. Someone said recently, it will be impossible to know if we over-reacted or did too much…but it will be quite apparent if we under-reacted or did too little.
Thank you for doing your part.

**TRAVEL ADVISORY LIFTED**
Effective February 28, 2020 at 6:30 a.m., Wyoming County Sheriff Gregory Rudolph has lifted the Travel Advisory.
There were a few traffic related issues yesterday, but no injuries and no significant damage.
Please do not let this “Lift” make you complacent. Continue to use caution as it still is a challenging "Wyoming County" February day. The high wind is still blowing the ground snow, which could present visibility and drifting hazards especially on north/south roads.
Thank you to our community for observing the advisory and allowing the Highway Departments / DOT to work safely and efficiently in those white out conditions yesterday.
Stay warm and be safe!

Effective February 27, 2020 at 11:00 a.m., Wyoming County Sheriff Gregory Rudolph has issued a NO UNNECESSARY TRAVEL ADVISORY for all of Wyoming County. The roads are NOT closed, however; the extreme weather combination of snow, wind and cold has created blizzard conditions and travel is extremely hazardous. The visibility is very poor and near zero in prone areas along with slippery and drifting roadways. North/South roads are particularly hazardous. The Wyoming County Sheriff does not determine the necessity of an individual’s obligation to travel. This is an advisory only and in effect until further notice.
