On Saturday, Cecil County Government informed the public that a number of people, both patients and staff, at the Calvert Manor Health Care Center had tested positive for covid-19 and that one of strike teams, newly formed by Governor Hogan was being sent in response.
The strike team appeared at the Calvert facility Saturday afternoon. The strike teams, made up of National Guard, state and local health departments and hospital systems, provide emergency care, supplies and equipment to overburdened nursing homes and extended-care facilities.
