I am not buying the "they are all at the nursing home" stuff anymore.. The non-resident count has gone up by 4 in the last week. Freeport has an additional one.

Perhaps some of the people in rehab there are from outside our county. Not sure about Freeport but numbers may be off. If you call the health dept or emergency services let us know what the deal is.
