COVID Spread in North Yorkshire Not Down to Schools, Care Homes or Pubs

The majority of the spread of Coronavirus in North Yorkshire can be tracked to Households and their social interactions according to the latest data from the county council.

North Yorkshire's Director of Public Health, Dr Lincoln Sargeant, says the latest data shows Pubs, Schools and Care homes have got their situation under control.

He's praised the diligence of the hospitality industry in North Yorkshire

Dr Sargeant says

Understanding that is helpful for a number of reasons. Firstly, because it should give us all confidence to continue to attend or support our education and childcare settings, to carry on supporting our businesses and to go about our daily lives in a safe way. Also, because if we accept that fact, we know exactly what we must do to keep on top of it. Wash our hands, keep our distance, cover our faces and stick to the rule of six. You have proven once again how willing you are to make the necessary sacrifices. Please, stay part of Team North Yorkshire and keep making that difference.

We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
