Citing the rising number of cases of COVID-19 and increased hospitalizations due to the virus in the county, Centre County government workers will remain in full-remote work status for at least another two weeks. If numbers don’t stabilize, it could be even longer.
The county had hoped to move workers to a full-rotational model beginning the first week in April. During Tuesday’s Board of Commissioners meeting, County Administer Margaret Gray said she learned that day that COVID-19 hospitalizations had risen again at Mount Nittany Medical Center. She said the number of county workers who have needed to quarantine has also climbed.
