COVID-19 SPECIAL COVERAGE (TUES 4.21)

Michal Frenn

This is NSPR’s weekday show about the local and regional effects of COVID-19 in the North State. Listen each weekday at 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 a.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 for the North State.

Today, we’re taking a trip to Lassen County where still no cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed. We’ll hear from the owner of an in-home care service that works with seniors about what challenges this pandemic has created there. We’ll also hear from a Chico State professor who just got off of a 28 deployment with the state’s disaster medical response team after working at a patient overflow facility in the Bay Area.
