Good afternoon,
I would like to share some updates as we approach the Thanksgiving weekend.
The following update will include information on the immediate future, quarantining practices, supports for quarantined students and distance learners, transportation, travel guidance, COVID-19 reporting, and some of my personal thoughts on what we might expect over the horizon.
The Immediate Future
As projected in October, community infection rates increased sharply over the past month. Meanwhile, our schools have shown a remarkable resilience in halting any spread of the virus in our buildings. I am confident that vigilance in maintaining our mitigating measures (i.e.masks, distancing, hand hygiene, etc.), as well as keeping the density of our schools at 50% capacity, have ensured this measure of success.
Westport Assistant Fire Chief Matthew Cohen said a person was pinned under a vehicle following a 9 a.m. two-vehicle accident between exits 18 and 19 on I-95. Firefighters used hydraulic rescue tools to lift the vehicle and remove the injured person, who had severe injuries and was taken to the hospital by Westport EMS. The accident tied up northbound I-95 until 12:45 p.m. (CLICK TO ENLARGE)
