The Cherokee County Government and Cherokee County Emergency Management Agency (CCEMA) are working closely with the Department of Public Health, and all local public safety agencies to monitor and respond to the current Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Confirmed cases of COVID are steadily increasing in Cherokee County and there have been a number of COVID related deaths. It is important to note, this rise in confirmed cases will continue until current mitigation efforts are given time to work. We urge citizens to practice all precautions recommended by Public Health officials. These include proper hand washing, disinfection of all surfaces you touch, covering your coughs or sneezes, refraining from touching your face, and social distancing of 6 feet or more. All citizens are encouraged to stay at home, unless it is absolutely essential to go out. We are all in this fight together, so please be mindful of your neighbors and fellow citizens. Please continue to monitor this page for the most current information.
