BELLINGHAM, Wash. – Whatcom County’s Health Department Director says she received disturbing threats after a member of the county council posted her mobile phone number on social media.
Erika Lautenback says she reported the threats to the Sheriff’s Office after Councilmember Kathy Kershner included her phone number in posts of an email exchange about funding for a vaccination program.
The Bellingham Herald reports Lautenbach had requested funds to continue a program encouraging young adults to get vaccinated.
Kershner didn’t support the funding and posted the exchange with Lautenbach on Facebook on July 14th along with a statement that the county health department needed to be “reined in.”

Last Friday, the Bellingham Opportunity Council, in partnership with Whatcom County Health Department, published the 2021 Point In Time Count Report for Homelessness.
The report provides a snapshot of persons experiencing homelessness locally based on annual surveys conducted each year in late January.
Notably, 859 individuals from 625 households were counted in 2021, the highest numbers recorded since counts began in 2008.
Unnaccompanied, or single, adults remain the majority of individuals experiencing homelessness, and made up 82% of the households counted.
The ages of homeless individuals ranged from 0-87 years old, with a median age of 36.
