Media Advisory, 042809

Local public health agencies and directors around the state should continue to take the lead for local communications in their communities. To facilitate timely communications to the public, local communications do not need to be reviewed by the state’s joint information system.

Reporters and news outlets seeking state information should continue to contact the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment for state information about swine flu in Colorado.

We will begin to send out a daily update between 2 and 3 p.m. each day for developments in Colorado. This will serve as the update for today.

As of today, the state still has no confirmed cases of swine flu.

* General information line for the public 1-877-462-2911
