The following message is to the citizens of Russell County from Judge Exec. Gary D. Robertson:
I have just gotten off a conference call with County Judges and Mayors from all across the state. Gov.Beshear was also on the call. Our active Covid19 case numbers are slowly increasing over the past couple of weeks. I am asking for all citizens of Russell County to try to be more diligent in taking precautions when you are out in public. Please try to social distance,wear a mask when you are around other people and wash your hands as suggested by health officials. Try this for the next 2 to 3 weeks and let’s see if we can reduce our cases here in Russell County. This might keep us from having any kind of outbreak in the coming weeks. Thanks to everyone.
