Governor Sununu

Today we’re announcing that the state is set to receive an additional 230,000 cloth face coverings from @HHSGov, on top of the 100,000 coverings that have already been distributed by the @NHNationalGuard. These face coverings will go directly to schools across the Granite State.

CDC tells states: Be ready to distribute vaccines on Nov. 1

Associated Press – “CDC urgently requests your assistance in expediting applications for these distribution facilities and, if necessary, asks that you consider waiving requirements that would prevent these facilities from becoming fully operational by November 1, 2020,” Redfield wrote.” – More at AP News
