Lexington Mayor Announces Coronavirus Study Team

Lexington Mayor Linda Gorton announced Wednesday an internal city hall group has been formed to help ensure the bluegrass community is ready to respond to cases of coronavirus, if necessary. 

The mayor said, quote, “We’re planning, not panicking.  Acting, not overreacting.”  Gorton says a stakeholder meeting will be held next week.  Invited to participate are hospitals, schools, the airport, universities, businesses, Keeneland, assisted living facilities, shelters, and more. 

Fayette County Health Commissioner Kraig Humbaugh said no cases of coronavirus have been identified in Kentucky.?
