LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – In a special Friday video event, local officials gathered to help answer Lake County children's and youth's questions about COVID-19.
The “kids-only press conference” event, hosted by First 5 Lake, discussed COVID-19, sheltering in place, and school closures.
Lilly Wiser, an eighth-grader at Konocti Christian Academy, asked the questions sent in earlier this week from Lake County youth via social media and email.
County officials and community leaders who were on hand to answer the questions as part of a panel included community health nurse Lynn Brookes, Lake County Superintendent of Schools Brock Falkenberg, Sheriff Brian Martin, District 4 Supervisor Tina Scott and preschool teacher and owner Terrie Sullivan.
The half-hour press conference can be viewed in the video above.
