Supervisors discuss COVID-19 toll on bars

MOHAVE COUNTY – Supervisor Buster Johnson noted Thursday that new COVID-19 daily case counts are trickling north again after recently reaching lows of 0 and 2, when peaking above 100 during Mohave County’s summertime surge. “Do you have any concerns with the higher number of cases coming in this week,” Johnson asked Department of Public Health Director Denise Burley during Thursday’s Board of Supervisors coronavirus management meeting. “Yes, supervisor Johnson I do,” Burley replied. She said case rise can likely be connected to citizen burnout with protective restrictions and due to increased group activity during Labor Day. “I think we…

What will you do on judgment day?

Dear Editor, How much fire, destruction and death does it take to open the eyes of the blind? Since 9/11, we have seen so much death and destruction, and yet the people of America seem to have blinders on – can’t see and can’t hear.

Vote, vote vote

Dear Editor, This upcoming election will be one of the most important in my 79-year lifetime and probably yours. Our current federal government is the most dysfunctional government ever. We have legislatures that want a more socialistic government and some leading to Marxism. The problem is do they really know what this could lead to? I have had the privilege of serving in our military and serving two – two – tours in the area of the Middle East, living and government traveling in Turkey, Pakistan, Iran North and East Africa. Knowing some of the depth of the governments in…
