"Let’s safely open Indiana’s economy and remain vigilant about protecting our health and well-being. We start by applying all we’ve learned about taking precautions to protect ourselves and others against this virus as we build business, employee and consumer confidence. Ultimately, we will get back on track and create an even stronger Indiana." Governor Eric Holcomb

On behalf of the Dearborn County Health Department and the Board of Health, we want to assure the public there is a process locally in place. We are monitoring the status of the COVID-19 virus frequently throughout the day. Call your physician early if you or someone in your family develops a fever, cough, difficulty breathing or respiratory symptoms and tell your provider of any recent travel, contact with travelers, or contact with a confirmed case.
First Responders request that those experiencing mild symptoms speak with their Doctor, Urgent Care, or Hospital ER via phone about which steps to take next. This will allow for emergency response services to better meet the needs of those with more severe respiratory illness.
For information regarding COVID-19 on weekends, holidays, and after hours, please contact Indiana State Department of Health Epidemiology Center at (317) 233-7125 or (317) 233-1325.

Indiana 211 adds new COVID-19 resources
Indiana 211 is a free service that helps Hoosiers across the state find the local resources they need quickly, easily and confidentially. In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, Indiana 211 is working closely with the Family Social Services Administration and United Way to add additional resources for those in need of assistance connecting with health and human services agencies in their local communities.
For those in need of food, counseling, internet or errand assistance, Indiana 211 has created a new site to serve as a hub of information on COVID-19 resources. Hoosiers can still find information regarding mental health and addiction services, housing and utility assistance, and more here.
To connect with a navigator, Hoosiers can dial 2-1-1 or 1-866-211-9966, which are available 24/7. You can also text your ZIP code to 898-211 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to receive more information.
