There is a remarkable statistic when it comes to Easton’s public safety personnel and the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Easton Emergency Squad, which has answered calls throughout the coronavirus’ nearly one-year run, has had none of its 10 full-time employees get sick with the sometimes-devastating disease, according to Bud Shull, the squad’s president.
Four part-time employees tested positive after exposure from other places they work, Shull said. But that didn’t impact anyone else on the squad and just caused scheduling issues, Shull said.
