covid-19 update

Picture
Still at yellow  - Utah’s efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19 were working. In the last couple of weeks the Bear River Health District has seen a significant increase in cases. Governor Herbert has announced Utah will stay in the yellow phase of the plan for the time being. He asks everyone to follow the social distancing, wearing face masks and washing hands and surfaces to get back to the downward trend. If you don't need to go out stay at home.  High-risk individuals continue to operate under stricter instructions because they are more likely to suffer severe illness from COVID-19.

Scam Alert!!!

Picture
SCAM - A reminder that scammers are out in full force. It is tax time and the calls claiming to be from the IRS will begin. Many of the callers will fool you by giving you bits of personal information such as your address or sometimes the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number and asking you to verify the rest. Do not give out personal information.  Don't be fooled by phone scams claiming they have your children or grandchildren or that you will be arrested. HANG UP! Once you respond they will continue to call and become more aggressive. Generally the call originates from another country and ends up with you wiring money or purchasing cards from a local retailer.  Contact Box Elder County Dispatch to report fraud at 435-734-3800.
