This is NSPR’s new weekday show about the local and regional effects of COVID-19 in the North State. Listen each weeknight Mon-Fri at 6:30 p.m. NSPR will continue this special coverage as long as our community needs it. Our mission with this show is to provide accurate news and information about COVID-19 in our region.
Tonight, we hear from Enloe Medical Center President and CEO Mike Wiltermood about the hospital’s preparedness and capacity for a surge. We also follow up with NSPR Reporter Andre Byik about concerns surrounding Personal Protective Equipment from some of Enloe's staff. And we talk masks: What are the new recommendations for the public? Why are they important? And how can you make your own mask from home?
We want you to drive this coverage, that means we need to hear from you. What information do you need to know? Leave your ideas and comments on our website mynpr.org or call us on our message line 530-433-9216.
