July 24, 2020 - Lancaster, PA
Governor Tom Wolf visited Lancaster Health Center, a federally qualified health center, to thank staff for their work to ensure the community's most vulnerable receive care during COVID-19 and year-round."Here at Lancaster Health Center, workers have gone out of their way to reach minority and vulnerable populations," Gov. Wolf said. "That includes the Latino community through targeted bilingual outreach and advocacy tailored to Hispanic culture. This has been key during this pandemic because it has allowed all Pennsylvanians access to COVID-19 care and testing."In addition to thanking center staff, the governor focused on the successes the state is seeing in COVID testing and contact-tracing. The state has already met its testing goal for July and is working to shift testing sites to areas with more need or where there has been a recent increase in cases.
