Currently, there is an increase in the number of cases of COVID-19 being diagnosed and we expect that trend to continue.
Many of those with COVID-19 may have mild to moderate symptoms, however those who are 65 and older or with underlying health issues are especially at risk. Madison County Government is taking steps to protect all of our residents and to avoid overwhelming our healthcare facilities.
At this time, the county commissioners and public health department are recommending that you shelter in place. Shelter in place means to remain in your homes or on your property, unless it is essential that you leave. Essential would include travel to and from a job that is necessary, travel to the pharmacy, grocery store, or to seek medical care.
Madison County Government has opened a COVID-19 hotline to assist you. Please call 649-0755 if you have medical questions or need food or medications.
