National Guard being brought in to Westmoreland Manor(Pennsylvania) amid rise in COVID-19 cases

Westmoreland County commissioners have decided to bring in the National Guard to assist at Westmoreland Manor.

The role of the Guard will be to take over testing at the county-operated nursing facility, allowing management to return to normal duties.

Commissioners met with Excela Health and the Regional Response Health Collaboration Program about the issue on Thursday.

Of the 59 total cases at Westmoreland Manor, commissioners say most patients are currently asymptomatic.
