Press Releases 
Dr. Linda Bean, DO, Deputy Health Officer for Crawford County
​New health officer offers guidance for employers, employees to minimize spread of COVID-19 in Crawford County

One of Dr. Linda Bean’s first priorities as the new deputy health officer for Crawford County is to educate and create awareness among employers and employees in an attempt to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, which gained a foothold in the county last week.
First and foremost: it is important to isolate at home if 1) you show symptoms of COVID-19 (such as fever or chills, cough, difficulty breathing, extreme tiredness, muscle aches, headache, sore throat, diarrhea, or loss of taste or smell), or 2) you have been tested and are awaiting results, regardless of whether you have symptoms, until you get the results.
Currently, there are 192 identified active cases in Crawford County — the highest of any county in Southeast Kansas — after an outbreak at Sugar Creek Packing Plant last week. (Read More)

​On Friday, June 19th, the Crawford County Commissioners acting as the Board of Public Health swore in Dr. Timothy Stebbins as the new Crawford County Public Health Officer and Dr. Linda Bean as the Deputy Public Health Officer.  

In addition to the roles Dr. Stebbins and Dr. Bean currently serve in the community, they will take on the additional responsibility of the Public Health Officer and Deputy Public Health Officer.

We are confident in the abilities of Dr. Stebbins and Dr. Bean to lead our community in their newly appointed roles. They will work closely with Rebecca Adamson, who is the current Crawford County Health Department Director.

All Health Department services and COVID-19 testing remain open and accessible to the public, for more information regarding those services, contact the Health Department at 620-231-5411.

​KDHE Issues Reminders for Sports Tournaments/Public Gatherings
For Immediate Release
June 26, 2020
 
KDHE shares steps to protect health amid potential
air quality impacts from Sahara Dust
 
TOPEKA – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) wants to alert Kansans to a potential air quality impact from Saharan dust.  The Saharan dust comes from the Sahara Desert in Africa, where storms can lift the dust into the atmosphere. Dust is picked up by trade winds and carried thousands of miles across the Atlantic and eventually to the U.S.  The particulate matter from this event has the potential to impact Kansas.
Particulate matter can cause health problems, even in healthy individuals.  Common health problems include burning eyes, runny nose, coughing and illnesses such as bronchitis.  Individuals with respiratory issues, pre-existing heart or lung diseases, children and elderly may experience worse symptoms.
Steps to protect your health on days when particulate matter is present in your community include:
  • Healthy people should limit or avoid strenuous outdoor exercise.
  • People with respiratory or heart related illness should remain indoors.
  • Help keep indoor air clean by closing doors and windows and running the air conditioners with air filters.
  • Keep hydrated by drinking lots of water.
  • Contact your doctor if you have symptoms such as chest pain, chest tightness, shortness of breath or severe fatigue.

KDHE recommends self-quarantine for Kansans who traveled to Lake of the Ozarks
TOPEKA – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) is recommending voluntary 14-day self-quarantine for those Kansans who traveled to Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri, over the Memorial Day weekend and did not use protective measures, such as social distancing and face masks. 
Over the holiday weekend, large crowds were reported at the Lake of the Ozarks with no protective practices being followed.
 
“The reckless behavior displayed during this weekend risks setting our community back substantially for the progress we’ve already made in slowing the spread of COVID-19,” Dr. Lee Norman, KDHE Secretary, said. “If you traveled to Lake of the Ozarks over the weekend, we urge you to act responsibly and self-quarantine to protect your neighbors, co-workers and family.”
 
While Lake of the Ozarks is not currently on the mandated travel list, KDHE urges those who traveled over the Memorial Day weekend to self-quarantine for 14 days upon return to Kansas.
 
A list of states on the mandated travel advisory is available at www.kdheks.gov/coronavirus.

KDHE and KDA recommend voluntary reduction in burning
​For Immediate Release
  March 26, 2020

KDHE and KDA recommend voluntary reduction in burning
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic currently impacting all states, including Kansas, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Kansas Department of Agriculture strongly encourage all land owners and managers to voluntarily reduce the number of acres that they intend to burn this spring.
“With the potential for this pandemic overwhelming the state’s medical facilities, any additional respiratory concerns that could be produced from breathing smoke from prescribed fire need to be mitigated,” Dr. Lee Norman, KDHE Secretary, said.
Common health problems related to smoke can include burning eyes, runny nose, coughing and illnesses such as bronchitis. Individuals with respiratory issues, including COVID-19, pre-existing heart or lung diseases, children and the elderly may experience worse symptoms.
With resources of the county emergency response staff already being taxed with COVID-19 response, it is important to minimize responses that would come with prescribed fire activity.
It is critical that land managers in areas included in the Smoke Model available online at ksfire.org consult the model if they do choose to burn. The model indicates the level at which a burn would contribute to urban area air quality problems. Secretary of Agriculture Mike Beam urges land managers to refrain from burning, especially if your area is predicted in the large (red) contribution range.
“Prescribed burning is a valuable land management tool in the efforts to fight invasive species and maximize land productivity, and this request should not be interpreted as an indictment of the practice of burning,” Beam said. “However, the circumstances surrounding the coronavirus pandemic have created a situation that calls for reducing burned acres this spring.”
