NORWALK — Typically on the holy day Ash Wednesday, Christians receive a cross on their forehead marked in ash by a priest’s or reverend’s thumb. This year, they’ll feel a cotton swab graze their faces instead.
In a world filled with coronavirus pandemic firsts, local parishes are finding new ways to celebrate the holy day while remaining socially distant.

Norwalk Hospital gets $2.7M in COVID-19 relief funding

Norwalk Hospital gets $2.7M in COVID-19 relief funding
FacebookTwitterEmail
NORWALK — Norwalk Hospital recently received $2.7 million in COVID-19 relief funding from Gov. Ned Lamont’s office.
The funds will be administered once the hospital provides proof of financial expenses incurred from COVID-19 treatment and prevention, according to a statement from the governor’s office.
Last week, the governor’s office administered a total of $40 million to non-governmental, short-term general hospitals based on certian requirements of facilities treating COVID-19 patients, according to the statement. Of the $40 million distributed to 25 hospitals around the state, Norwalk Hospital received $2.7 million.
“This funding recognizes the frontline role Connecticut’s hospitals and their dedicated employees have played throughout this pandemic,” Lamont said. “Our hospitals have needed to adapt to new protocols and infection control measures, while also ceasing elective procedures during the crest of the first wave of COVID-19, which had the effect of increasing costs and decreasing revenues, not to mention the physical, mental, and emotional toll this pandemic has taken on their staff.”
