medivac from villages.
Our hospital here in Homer put the word out that a medivac helicopter has been posted here, presumably in case anyone needs out of the smaller villages for which Homer is a hub. Kind of weird that as of right now the only locality mentioned in the "impact" section is Ketchikan, there are cases all over the state now. Fairbanks is apparently been declared as a "hotspot"
[1] Incidentally, I was doing remote work in small villages most of the winter, and we were asked on the 16th by village leadership to please stop and leave right after we arrived on our last trip. Can't say I blame them. APRN ran a story last week about villages in the
YK delta that are restricting visitors. I'll see if I can find that. Here's tow possible refs on that:

March 2 and 3, 2020
There is a discrepancy in the numbers released by the State of Alaska from April - April 2, 2020. On the 1st, there were 143 COVID-19 cases in Alaska. The next day, the state website said there were 8 new cases, but the total given there only rose to 147. However, Gov. Dunleavy said the number rose to 151. The state did change the timeframe for releasing daily information, so maybe there was some overlapping of cases between the old and new timeframes. But if that's the case, then why did Dunleavy say there were 151? Is he wrong? Or is there a typo on the state website? Hopefully the next release will provide clarity.
