Mayor Spellerberg opened the meeting by thanking all area partners for their tireless efforts and teamwork as we continue to fight the spread of Covid-19 and the new Omicron variant. “Since our first confirmed community case in March of 2020, our community came together with a focused plan to slow the spread of the virus, keep schools and businesses open, and vaccinate Fremonters. I want to thank the members of our community for following protocols set in place by area schools, businesses, and other organizations as we slow the spread of the current Omicron variant. COVID-19 and its current variants are not going away-so a vaccination and booster shot continue to be the greatest weapon we have to prevent serious illness and hospitalization.

“Terra Uhing and her team at the Three Rivers Health Department is doing a great job of keeping Fremont and the three Counties in its jurisdiction up to date with the latest information on the virus and new Omicron variant. The City and our community partners will continue to work with Three Rivers to focus on education and encouraging people to get vaccinated. As our community and hospital system are seeing a strong uptick in cases with the Omicron variant, please take necessary precautions to protect others and slow the spread. Monitor your symptoms, stay home when you are sick, and please take steps recommended by our health department. The path to a future without fear from the effects of COVID-19 and its variants is in the hands of the people and I am optimistic that they will continue to get vaccinated, boosted, and take the steps necessary, to protect themselves, their family and friends, and the general public,” concluded Spellerberg.

Three Rivers Public Health is offering free community testing in conjunction with Total Wellness. Testing will be Tuesdays 8:30 am – 3:00 pm, Thursdays 8:30 am – 12:00 pm and Fridays 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm. Testing is located at 210 East Military Avenue in Fremont and you must have an appointment in order to be tested. Please visit https://www.totalwellnesshealth.com/private/3rphd/ to make your appointment. “It is imperative that we all continue to do our part through this latest surge of COVID-19 cases. Please stay home if you are sick, get vaccinated and wear a mask when out in the community to help us preserve our medical capacity,” stated Terra Uhing, Executive Director.
