from Charlottesville Quarantine Report · host Sean Tubbs

Quotes:“Face coverings are an important part of the next steps and we will have more to say about that next week especially as we think about phase one and phase two. I know everyone wants to know when Northern Virginia, Richmond and Accomack County will be able to move into phase one and when the rest of the state will move into Phase 2. We are in frequent communication with officials in those localities and we’ll have more information to share next week.” - Governor Ralph Northam, May 22, 2020“Next we have planned 44 community testing events and we anticipate that will include 17,500 tests. We’ll also be doing point prevalence surveys in approximately 15 facilities with about 6,000 tests.” - Governor Ralph Northam, May 22, 2020Resources :Virginia Department of Health’s Covid Check pageUSDA’s SNAP Online Purchasing Pilot pageVirginia Graduates Together information including submission portalTwitter page for Cam Thompson of CBS6 Local Food Hub May 18 blog post on drive-through marketsBlue Ridge Area Food Bank's COVID-19 page
