The meeting was moved from the commissioner’s office to the Common Pleas Courtroom to allow for attendees to spread out and practice social distancing. The Declaration of Emergency read as follows: Whereas, the area known as Meigs County, Ohio and all Townships and Municipalities contained therein, and those residents withing those communities are, because of technical or natural causes, facing eminent threat to their general safety by the Novel Coronavirus-19. Whereas, all citizens are called upon and directed to comply with appropriate emergency measures and to cooperate with public officials and disaster relief forces in their execution of emergency operation plans and to comply with the lawful directions of properly identified public officers; and to curtail any unnecessary travel, into the affected areas; and Now, therefore be it resolved, we the Board of Meigs County Commissioners, hereby declare that a state of emergency exists in Meigs County and hereby invoke and declare in full force in effect in Meigs County, statutes and ordinances applicable to this emergency by the government of United States, the State of Ohio and the County of Meigs for the exercising of all necessary authority for the protection of lives and property of the people of Meigs County and restoration of local government with minimum interruption. All operating forces will direct their communication and request for assistance and operations directly to the Emergency Operations Center. The declaration was drafted along with Meigs County Emergency Management Agency Director Jamie Jones. President of the Meigs County Commissioners Randy Smith explained that the County Commissioners Association of Ohio advised that the counties did not likely have to take the step in order to be able to draw down funds, but that it was better to proceed with the declaration in case it is in fact necessary. Smith added that the declaration does not limit the rights of county residents or override the requirements of their employers. The declaration simply allows the county to receive assistance and reimbursement from the state and federal level should it become necessary. In addition to the declaration, the commissioners approved a resolution asking that all offices reduce staff in the office due to COVID-19. The commissioners See DECLARATION | 3 PVH implements drive-up viral testing appointments Response to COVID-19 Staff Report POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Pleasant Valley Hospital (PVH) announced late Thursday evening the creation of a drive-up viral testing station for people exhibiting symptoms of respiratory viruses including COVID-19.

Families receive food through distribution Staff Report ROCKSPRINGS — A total of 200 families were supplied with canned soups, chili, and beans; pasta, dried legumes, and other staples at a drive through distribution held at the Meigs County Fairgrounds on Tuesday. The distribution was sponsored by Indivisible Appalachian Ohio (IAO), an area non-profit social welfare organization that regularly sponsors the SE Ohio Foodbank’s mobile food pantry in Meigs and Vinton Counties. In addition to financial sponsorship of the mobile pantry, IAO also provides logistics and volunteer services to carry out the large operations. Tuesday’s distribution was especially labor intensive due to protocol the organization and the SE Ohio Foodbank put in place to protect recipients and volunteers from exposure to the pandemic coronavirus. Assisting IAO was a group of volunteers from WOUB Center for Public Media through their Community Give Back program. The volunteers assisted the families with many needs during the event, including vehicle issues and the loading of See FOOD | 3 Indivisible Appalachian Ohio volunteers, along with a group from WOUB’s Community Giveback Program, loaded vehicles during the food pantry.

My prayer is that local agencies will be fully supported by the local, state, and federal governments so that Appalachian Ohioans will get the help they desperately need right now.” The distribution took several hours to complete, and all volunteers — ranging in ages from 15 to 70 — were cold and tired, but very happy that they were able to help their neighbors in need. “I want to especially thank our volunteers, the SE Ohio Foodbank, and the Sheriff’s Department for making this possible. We have done many distributions, but none that presented the challenges this one did. Hopefully we kept smiles on our faces, and offered encouragement to those we served,” said Shaw. A producer working on an assignment with the PBS news show Frontline was on the site filming the distribution as part of an upcoming piece in April about the coronavirus and its impact on low income families.

That is OK because we adults have also had many changes we never thought would happen, and we don’t completely understand what is going on around us either. All because of a new virus Ann that is very contagious. Moody Schools, churches, restauContributing rants gyms, movies, and columnist some stores are closed, we are supposed to stay home as much as possible, some supplies are not readily available, school work is being done at home, and many more things are very different now. We all (children and adults) are unsure, anxious, and even afraid. This is perfectly normal and nothing to be ashamed of feeling. Did anyone in the Bible ever feel unsure, anxious, or afraid do you think? The truth is almost everyone we read about in the Bible felt this way at one time or another. Moses was unsure about leading the people out of Egypt and didn’t feel up to the task. Abraham didn’t understand God’s plan for him. King Saul chased David and wanted to kill him. Mary and Joseph sure didn’t know what God had planned for them with the birth of Jesus. The Disciples were afraid after the crucifixion and thought their lives were over. Even Jesus wanted and needed assurance from His Father God that He was on the right path. Remember in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus was praying and sweating blood. But all of these and others in the Bible put their faith and trust in God and carried on with what they knew to do. We have to do the same thing. We must always remember God is in control of everything in this world. He has not deserted us, forgot us, or left us alone at this time with the Coronavirus. None of us know how this will all play out, but (and it’s a big but) we do know WHO will help us get through this – and get through it, we will. My mother always told me, “This too shall pass.” Lots of times, I didn’t believe her, but you know what – it eventually did pass. This problem will probably take some time to get resolved, but it will. In the meantime, we all need to do our part to stop the virus’ transmission, help each other, pray, and read our Bibles. In fact, the Bible has many passages just for a time like this when we are all a little afraid and apprehensive of the future. For times of fear of the unknown: Isaiah 41: 10, “So do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with My right hand.” For when we worry about things going wrong: Philippians 4:6, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God.” If you are afraid of someone or something, Deuteronomy 31: 6, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you. He will never leave you or forsake you.” And finally, if you worry about getting things you need: Matthew 6:25, “Jesus said ‘I tell you do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?” Then 1 Peter 5:7 sums it all up when he tells us, “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” If you are afraid, worried, or nervous about things happening right now, be sure to talk to your parents, grandparents, or a trusted friend. You each have many people that love you and only want the best for you. They will make sure you are OK. God gave you these people to take care of your needs. He will also take care of you if you ask him to do so. Remember these Bible verses and maybe you and your parents can find even more in Bible or read some Bible stories that prove just how God loves and helps his children - always. Let’s say a prayer. Father God, this is a scary time for us, but we know that You love us and will help to calm our fears if we ask You. Help all those who are sick with this virus and bless all those people who take care of them. Help us to remember that You are always with us through whatever is going on around us. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen. Ann Moody is pastor of Wilkesville First Presbyterian Church and the Middleport First Presbyterian Church.

We—-the people of the church, in particular—-need to be mindful of that. If you read the Bible, you have to see that sometimes God works in judgment concerning the wickedness people practice. We have to admit that our world is just that— -wicked. Our own country is just that—-wicked. It would be a daunting exercise to list the all the sins and evils that are currently permeating our societies. At one point, God said, “Since those days were, when one came to a heap of twenty measures, and there were but ten: when one came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty vessels of the press, and there were but twenty. I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labors of your hand, yet you turned not to me, saith the Lord.” Sometimes God uses shortness to get our atten- attention?

I am staying inside more so these days. We need to yield our usual lives to curtailed living for a while. It will not hurt us to do that. But, as people of the church, we need to be in the process of pointing to God. People at large will not like it. I figure that people will not like this thought about which I write. But, a Bible-based world view must be manifested for God’s honor and glory. He is worthy of praise and adoration, He is worthy of recognition for His power and authority, and He is worthy of respect for how He works His will. Bless the Lord.

CROSS WORDS Sovereign in the silence, V Some might think Esther is a book without God. After all, God’s name has yet to be mentioned in the text. And it never will be. Instead, there’s a king named Ahasuerus who seems to rule the world. Throwing a banquet. Divorcing his wife. And summoning hundreds of virgins to sleep with him. I mean, can this book be any less godly? But the past few weeks have revealed God’s hand at work. We’ve seen His sovereignty despite a prideful king. And this week is no different. God’s name is never mentioned, but He is sovereign in the silence. God’s Word says, “Now there was a Jew in Susa the citadel whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, son of Shimei, son of Kish, a Benjaminite, who had been carried away from Jerusalem among the captives carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away” (Esth. 2:5-6 ESV). The author of Esther now introduces us to a Jew named Mordecai. It’s the first reference of a Jew in Esther’s narrative. And it leaves us wondering why Jews are present in the Persian Empire in the first place. If you remember, the Jews are taken into Babylo- Here’s a Jewish girl with a good shot at becoming queen of Persia. Interestingly, however, she doesn’t want people to know she’s Jewish. “Esther had not made known her people or kindred, for Mordecai had commanded her not to make it known. And every day Mordecai walked in front of the court of the harem to learn how Esther was and what was happening to her” (v. 10-11 ESV). Why does Esther conceal her identity? Perhaps she is concealing her conviction. Seeking approval from the world rather than God. But regardless of the reason, here’s a young foreign girl with a good chance at becoming queen. And God is present through it all. He is sovereign in the silence. And as we’re about to see, God uses Esther to save His people from destruction. Upon reading these verses, let’s be reminded of God’s sovereignty at work. Even when we can’t see Him. Even when we can’t hear Him. He is working to fulfill His promises both for our good and His glory. Even when COVID-19 tries to tell us otherwise. all, King Ahasuerus is nian captivity (Dan. summoning beautiful 1:1-4). The Persian young virgins to his Empire defeats the harem, remember?

The Oregon senior shattered the NCAA career triple-double mark and became the first player in college history to have 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 1,000 assists. She earned a spot on The Associated Press women’s basketball All-America team Thursday as a unanimous choice from the national media panel that votes on the Top 25 each week. She was joined on the first team by Oregon teammate Ruthy Hebard, Baylor’s Lauren Cox, Kentucky’s Rhyne Howard and UConn’s Megan Walker. Ionescu is the eighth player in women’s basketball history to earn AP All-America honors three times. The last was South Carolina’s A’ja Wilson. “Sabrina is a transcendent basketball player,” Oregon coach Kelly Graves said. “There’s really nothing that she couldn’t do on the court. She was the ultimate leader.” Baylor’s Brittney Griner, Tennessee’s Chamique Holdsclaw, Duke’s Alana Beard, Oklahoma’s Courtney Paris and UConn’s Breanna Stewart and Maya Moore are the only other players to earn first-team honors at least three times. Paris and Moore were All-Americans all four years. Ionescu averaged 17.5 points, 9.1 assists and 8.6 rebounds this season as well as having eight of her 26 career triple-doubles. Hebard was on the receiving end of many of those passes and averaged 17.3 points and 9.6 rebounds to help the Ducks win the Pac-12 regular season and conference tournament. “I’m happy for Ruthy. Sometimes she gets overlooked. She’s so darn good and important to what we do,” Graves said. “Not that she played in the shadows so to speak, but she wasn’t on top of everyone’s mind.” Oregon teammate Satou Sabally made the second team, giving the second-ranked Ducks three of the top 10 players in the country. “I would say that’s pretty good. I wouldn’t expect three. There are a lot of really good players,” coach Kelly Graves said. “That’s really neat. I think that’s really cool.” Cox earned first-team honors for the first-time. The senior post averaged 12.5 points and 8.4 rebounds while blocking nearly 2.7 shots a game. She only played in 22 of the Lady Bears 30 games because of a stress reaction in her foot early in the season. “She is so deserving,” Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. “Just her presence on the floor made us better whether she scored a point or not. Her presence brought an air of confidence to our basketball team.” Howard did nearly everything for Kentucky this season. The sophomore guard averaged 23.4 points, 6.5 rebounds and hit 84 3-pointers. She is the Wildcats’ first women’s player to be a first-team All-American. “Rhyne is the definition of an All-American and one of those rare players that impacts the game in absolutely every statistical category . She’s so much more than a prolific scorer,” Kentucky coach Matthew Mitchell said. “She has zero weaknesses which makes her the most dynamic player in college basketball.” Walker gave UConn a first-teamer for the seventh consecutive season. Walker, who declared she was entering the WNBA draft and not returning for her senior season, averaged 19.7 points, 8.4 rebounds and 47.7% from the field. “Meg put in a lot of work before and during the season to elevate her game. She transformed herself into being one of our go-tos on the court,” UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. “Megan had an incredible season and this honor is a testament to her hard work.” See TEAM | 7 Photos by Alex Hawley | OVP Sports GAHS senior Logan Blouir (14) tries a jump shot in between three Panthers, during the Blue Devils’ 17-point setback on Feb. 12 in Centenary, Ohio.

Gallia Academy was represented on the All-Ohio list by senior Logan Blouir, a first time all-state honoree. An honorable mention choice, Blouir scored 16.6 points per game for the 10-13 Blue Devils. River Valley junior Jordan Lambert named to the honorable mention portion of the All-Ohio list for a second year in a row. Lambert averaged 17.3 points per game for the 6-18 Raiders.

Although information moving in free agency in CINCINNATI (AP) — An employee who works year-round at the Reds spring training complex in Goodyear, Arizona, has tested positive for the new coronavirus, but no Cincinnati players have been diagnosed with the illness. The employee was in contact with Reds staff and players from Feb. 29 to March 14 and is selfquarantined in Arizona. Some Reds employees who were in Goodyear and had contact with the infected employee were tested as a precaution Wednesday in Cincinnati. Major league and minor league players were informed of the positive test and urged to contact the team if they feel ill. So far, none has reported any symptoms, said Dick Williams, president of baseball operations. “We are keeping in daily contact with them,” Williams said. “If there’s anything suspicious, we’re going to work with them very quickly to get tested.” Jim Day, a Fox Sports Ohio broadcaster, was among those tested as a precaution. He participated in the team’s weekly “Hot Stove League” show Wednesday by calling in from self-quarantine at home. Major League Baseball has shut down spring training and pushed back the start of the season until at least mid-May because of the pandemic. While players in the NBA and the NHL have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, no big league baseball player is known to have been infected. Two New York Yankees minor leaguers have tested positive for the virus. On Tuesday, the Ottawa Senators announced that one of their players — who wasn’t identified — had tested positive, the first known case in the NHL. The virus causes only mild or moderate symptoms for most people, such as a cough and fever. Older adults and those with existing health problems can develop more severe illness, including pneumonia. The vast majority of people recover from the virus. Those with a mild illness recover in about two weeks, according to the World Health Organization, while those with more severe forms make take three to six weeks. The Reds employee in Goodyear began feeling sick over the weekend and went for testing. “They tested negative for the flu and strep,” Williams said. “Because of the nature of the job and the exposure to a lot of players from international locations, they decided to go ahead and do a (COVID19) test. “It takes a few days for the results to come back, so the employee wasn’t informed until late last night.” Team From page 6 Joining Sabally on the second team were Aliyah Boston of South Carolina, Chennedy Carter of Texas A&M, Aari McDonald of Arizona and Dana Evans of Louisville. The third team was Ty Harris of South Carolina, Michaela Onyenwere of UCLA, Kathleen Doyle of Iowa, Elissa Cunane of North Carolina State and Kaila Charles of Maryland.

Friday, March 20, 2020 7 one of the busiest years of action are such stars as Brady, Philip Rivers and Jason Witten. While they certainly can afford to wait for everything to become official, it’s a strange dynamic in what, of course, is a strange time. The NFL has delayed the offseason schedule of practices amid the uncertainty — meetings and organized team activities (OTAs) would have begun in April. Becoming familiar with new surroundings, teammates and coaching staffs for the likes of veterans Brady, Rivers and Witten — who collectively spent 52 years with their original teams — and the dozens of other players changing addressed must wait. Several of Brady’s ex-teammates are also leaving Foxborough and many of them are reuniting with former Patriots assistants Matt Patricia in Detroit and Brian Flores in Miami. Linebacker Jamie Collins (three years, $30 million) and defensive tackle Danny Shelton (two years, $8 million) are headed to Detroit, which also acquired safety Duron Harmon from the Patriots. Linebacker Elandon Roberts is expected to follow linebacker Kyle Van Noy (four years, $51 million) and O-lineman Ted Karras to the Dolphins. While Brady’s representatives and the Buccaneers worked out details of their contract, teams went ahead with their plans to bolster their rosters amid all the uncertainty: DOLPHINS: From tanking to banking, the Dolphins have been the busiest team on a spending spree, committing a whopping $133 million in guarantees to seven players. After making Byron Jones the NFL’s highest-paid cornerback, the Dolphins also have agreed to deals with C Ted Karras, LB Kyle Van Noy, DEs Shaq Lawson and Emmanuel Ogbah, RB Jordan Howard and G Ereck Flowers. The total value of the new deals is more than $222 million. That’s big change — and a big change for a franchise that began stockpiling money and draft picks a year ago with a roster dismantling so drastic Miami used an NFL record 84 players and was accused of tanking. BRONCOS: A day after losing out on NT D.J. Reader to the Bengals, the Broncos made their second big trade by acquiring five-time Pro Bowl DL Jurrell Casey from the Tennessee Titans for a 2020 seventh-round pick, people familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. Casey, due $11.2 million this season and under contract through 2022, plugs a gaping hole on Denver’s D-line just as the free agent acquisition of C-G Graham Glasgow (four years, $44 million) fills a big need on the O-line. STEELERS: Pittsburgh turned the opening day of free agency into a family affair for the Watt family, agreeing to terms with OLB T.J. Watt’s older brother, FB Derek Watt, on a three-year contract worth $9.75 million. “’Come to Pittsburgh’. IT WORKED!!! Welcome to #SteelerNation,” T.J.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver revealed that notion as one of several items under consideration by the league right now during the shutdown caused by the pandemic. Silver made the comments in a televised interview on ESPN. “Maybe it’s for a giant fundraiser or just for the collective good of the people,” Silver said. “You take a subset of players and is there a protocol in which they can be tested and quarantined and isolated in some way. … People are stuck at home. They need a diversion. They need to be entertained.” Silver offered no predictions on when NBA games would resume. He said the league may, when conditions allow, resume games but without fans — a move the league was going to make last week before Utah’s Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19 and prompted the league to go on what it thought would be a hiatus, not a stoppage that is certain to reach multiple weeks and likely months. Silver, as he often does, said he hopes the NBA can be a conduit to spark positive change in the country — especially now when there will be a real need. “One thing I’ll say about the United States … we’re an incredible country and some of the greatest inventions, some of the best innovations, some of the best minds are in this country,” Silver said. “And I’m sure as people are sitting home but still working they’re thinking of these various things like how can we restart the economy and what role can the NBA play?” Silver also said he doesn’t know when play can return. The NBA has said the shutdown will be at least 30 days, though the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has subsequently said it recommends no gatherings of more than 50 people take place before mid-May. “I don’t have a good enough sense of how long a period this is going to be,” Silver said. In other matters Silver discussed: Team testing Silver said eight full NBA teams have been tested for the coronavirus, which is more than was previously known, as well as members of other teams who were showing symptoms. The Brooklyn Nets, Oklahoma City Thunder, Utah Jazz and Toronto Raptors have said publicly that they have been tested; the Los Angeles Lakers indicated Tuesday that they would be tested. The Detroit Pistons said a player was tested; that player, according to a person with knowledge of the situation, was Christian Wood, who tested positive.

We also understand that with no actual contact with an infected person, our risk levels are low.” A week ago, most probably thought the risks seemed low. Now, everyone is just guessing. And it only took a week for everything to change. “We’re flying by the seat of our pants here,” Kaminsky said. “And I feel like everyone is.” staff were keeping track of the situation on a moment-by-moment basis while different contingency plans were being worked out. Bettman told the Board of Governors that once a player tested positive, all bets were off. The NBA had sent similar indicators. in two cities, including the same locker room in Boston. The Carolina Hurricanes followed the Jazz into a Detroit hotel, and broadcaster John Forslund went into self-isolation after being informed the person who used his room before him tested positive. It took almost a week after the NHL season was suspended for the first player to test positive. The Senators announced late Tuesday night that an unnamed player had COVID-19 and that other team employees were instructed to self-isolate and monitor their health. “The player has had More NHL and NBA tests mild symptoms and is When Gobert tested in isolation,” the team positive just before a game the night of March said. “The Ottawa Senators are in the process of 11, it sent shockwaves notifying anyone who has around sports.

The Gobert domino Connecting the dots is impossible, simply because it’s unlikely to ascertain when or how Gobert or any other infected player got the virus. The Jazz played at the New York Knicks on March 4. The Washington Capitals played at the New York Rangers — using the same locker room that the Jazz did — the next night. The Detroit Pistons visited the Knicks on March 8, using that same locker room again; the Pistons’ Christian Wood tested positive about a week later. And the Tampa Bay Lightning went on the road to face the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings, both times following the Jazz. “The Lightning followed the Utah Jazz into arenas in Boston and Detroit this past weekend, moving into a locker room in Boston that had been occupied by the The Los Angeles Lakers, a second person with knowledge of the matter, were in the process of getting players and staff tested this week because the Nets — who said they obtained private testing — had four players test positive. The Lakers played the Nets on March 10. What’s next Yet even a week ago, very few saw this — a global shutdown — coming. “It’s funny. We had one guy in our entire organization that was taking it extremely serious,” Phoenix center Frank Kaminsky said in his “Pros and Joes” podcast that was released Wednesday. “He was warning everybody. Everyone would crack jokes at him. … Like, you just think, ‘Oh, that’s in China. That’s not going to get here.’ And then the next thing you know, there’s reports that it’s getting worse and worse. “And then Rudy Gobert tests positive,” Kaminsky continued. “And then your season is pretty much over, or in a hiatus as they’re calling it.” It very well may be over.
