Battle Creek Chamber issued the following announcement on April 3.
Calhoun County, like the rest of the country, is experiencing a shortage of COVID-19 testing supplies. While local health systems work hard to develop testing ability and use outside laboratories, State guidance recommends prioritization for the testing that is available. Top priorities for test recipients will be given to health care professionals, first-responders and hospital patients in order to best protect those on the front-lines of treating COVID-19 from becoming ill and dwindling their numbers.
It's important to remember that testing for COVID-19 does not change the way we treat this disease. Please take care of yourselves and help us spread this understanding.
Thank you Calhoun County. Your actions are helping to protect our community in a big way.
