Valley County Cleanup
Day was held on Earth Day,
April 22nd. It was a beautiful
day and we had over 30
participants that signed up at
our office and took advantage
of the donated supplies. I am
so glad that people were able
to get out of their houses and
quarantine to clean up this
amazing county.
We were so blessed to
have T& R Trucking donate
garbage bags and put out
garbage cans at designated
areas, dumped them, and
collected the cans. FMDH
donated waters and gloves.
Wade & Brenda Sundby and
Duane & Doris Ozark very
generously donated money
towards purchasing gift
certificates from local Two
Rivers members to give away
for prizes. THANK YOU from
the bottom of our hearts to all
these people!
The following are the
participants that signed up
at the Two Rivers office and

ATTN: Parents of 6th graders
Please call the Valley County Health Department
at 228-6261 to schedule vaccinations for your 6th grade
child. Valley County Health Department encourages
immunization as soon as the child is age 11. Let’s do this
before school is officially out and the summer gets busy!
• Tetanus, Diphtheria, Acellular Pertussis (Tdap)
Montana Law requires students to have proof of this
immunization for 7th grade entry.
Boostrix or Adacel can be given at age 11 and
VCHD would like to protect our children as soon as they
are eligible. Pertussis, also known as whooping cough,
is a highly contagious disease involving the throat and
lungs. It is one of the deadliest diseases of infants and
young children.
These vaccines are also recommended and are
routine vaccinations:
• Meningococcal Vaccine (MCV4)
Menactra is recommended by the CDC for children
age 11-12. A booster dose is recommended between 16-
18 years also. Meningococcal disease is a leading cause
of bacterial meningitis in children in the U.S.
• Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
Gardasil vaccine is a series of 2 shots given 6 months
apart IF the first dose is given prior to age 15. The CDC
recommends that boys and girls age 11-12 receive this
vaccine. Spread by males and females, HPV is a very
common virus that can lead to genital warts and cancer
of the mouth and throat, cervix, penis or vagina. HPV
vaccine is cancer prevention!
• Hepatitis A (HAV)
Havrix vaccine is also a 2-dose series given 6 months
apart. This vaccine is now given routinely to all
babies, but this age group is often missing Hepatitis A
protection. Hepatitis A is a serious liver disease caused
by the hepatitis A virus (HAV). HAV is spread from
person to person through contact with the feces (stool)
of people who are infected, which can easily happen if
someone does not wash his or her hands properly. You
can also get hepatitis A from food, water, or objects
contaminated with HAV. Hepatitis A can be spread
without any symptoms.
Please do not wait to immunize; summer will
fly by as it always does! VCHD is open every week to
provide immunizations.
By appointment: Monday – Thursday from 7:30 am
– 6:00 pm. Please call us at 228-6261 for any questions
and to schedule your appointment!

Is Chicken Little Right?
Who Shot J.R.?
There are folks now telling us
that opening up for business as usual
would be a disaster because there
could be an outbreak of Covid-19 or a
much worse virus next winter.
Well DUH! Of course there will be some kind of
influenza outbreak next winter as there has been every
winter since Al Gore invented the influenza virus and
the internet. An outbreak of what is the question now
being posed, dissected, postulated and argued using
those cute little “hand quotes.”
The thing I most fear is the what if ’s. What if
Chicken Little is right and the sky falls in on us or that
we finally discover who shot JR November something
1980. (ICYMI it was not the butler in the closet with a
lead pipe. It was....wait for it....(How many of you can
remember who shot JR before I tell you?)....No it wasn’t
Sue Ellen. It was Kristen, in the apartment with a gun,
who then tried to frame Sue Ellen but failed.
What does all that have to do with the Covid-19
pandemic? Nothing. Carry on!
People are asking what’s the big deal with Covid-19
when SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) had a
far higher fatality rate, 9.6%, compared with Covid-19 at
1.4%. And what about MERS (Middle East Respiratory
Syndrome) with it’s astoundingly high fatality rate of
34%?
Here’s one reason: SARS infected just 8,098 people
and killed 774 while MERS had 2,519 with 866 deaths.
(These figures represent world-wide.) Today we are
looking at almost a million people in the US with
confirmed cases of Covid-19 and just over 55K have
died. World wide there have been 2.95 million cases
with 205K deaths. Montana has 448 cases with 14 deaths
as of 4/25/20.
The coronaviruses SARS and MERS aren’t as
easily transmitted as is the coronavirus causing the
Covid-19 disease. The origin of all three have been
traced from animal to human contact. SARS and MERS
are transmitted by closer contact mainly between close
family members and between healthcare workers and
patients. Most people who contracted SARS and/
or MERS knew exactly when they got sick and then
proceeded to home and bed until healed up.
Oh and I might ask why all the numbers pundits
who analyze and statisticize all the comparisons not
comparing this pandemic to the AIDS pandemic/
epidemic? How many deaths and how many cases were
there in that epidemic/pandemic? And why didn’t we
shut the country down then?
Again....sorry.... carry on.
The problem we’re seeing with the Covid-19 is that
people can be infected with the virus and spread the
virus without having any symptoms of being infected.
That’s the chief reason for all this social-distancing.
Covid-19 can spread through a sneeze or a cough, or
through contact with door knobs, food packages and
almost everything we come into contact with daily.
The Swine Flu (H1N1) of 2009 could spread just
like Covid-19 through coughing, sneezing or contact.
A person with Swine flu could infect 1.4 to 1.6 other
people while folks with the Covid-19 virus can infect
1.6 to 3.5 others. That’s called the RO or R-naught factor.
How many well people can a sick person infect before
the sickie either dies or heals up.
The Ebola virus surfaced in 1976 and has the
highest fatality rate of all aforementioned bugs with a
50% death rate. It has since spread from West Africa to
27 other countries.
The Covid-19 disease can be so mild that the
person doesn’t even know he/she is infect. That’s why
the virus is so very difficult to track and control and
that’s the reason social-distancing has been introduced
to Americans.
Seems most of these viruses originally spread from
some animal or another to some people or another. I
guess the real solution would be to kill all the animals?
Or we can all just go on sharing the planet with the
animals and keep on blaming President Trump for all
our ills.
Personally I think Nasty Nancy is behind it all!
Keep safe friends. (You can read that with or
without inserting a comma.)
That’s it for now folks. Thanks for listening.
