Latest Dare County Bulletin

Bulletin #34
April 7, 2020 
1:00 p.m.

In North Carolina, there are currently 3,221 cases of COVID-19 in 90 counties. There have been 46 fatalities in NC associated with COVID-19. Currently, the state is reporting 270 hospitalizations across the state from COVID-19 illness. 

As of today, a total of 10 individuals have tested positive for COVID-19 in Dare County. Three of the four new cases announced today are all associated with direct contact with the individual whose positive test result was announced on April 4. The other new case is an individual who also likely acquired the virus through direct contact when out of the area. 

Of the 10 individuals who have tested positive for COVID-19 in Dare County, five have completely recovered, three are asymptomatic (meaning they have not experienced any COVID-19 symptoms), one is recovering in isolation and one remains hospitalized out of the county.

Now that community spread is likely in our community, you must act as if everyone you come in contact with has COVID-19 and has the ability to spread the virus. To protect yourself, your family, and our community, it is imperative that everyone in Dare County follows the Stay Home - Stay Healthy order (which aligns with Governor Cooper’s Stay at Home Executive Order). Restrict ALL non-essential movement. Only go out when absolutely necessary (for essential needs). Avoid direct contact, other than immediate family members. Practice good hygiene.

Raymond the Mule

Meet Raymond 

This is Raymond the mule. He's lived among Corolla's wild horses for over 20 years! According to a November 2019 Coast article, Raymond is the son of a domestic donkey brought to the Outer Banks in the 1990s. The donkey mated with a wild horse mare to produce Raymond, famous for his feisty spirit, big ears and loud braying. For 20 years, he led mares as if he were a stallion himself and fought off larger challengers. He made up for his size with speed and craftiness, biting at their legs and spinning and kicking. He was victorious most of the time.

Due to some health issues, Raymond now spends his time at on a farm for rescues in Grandy, NC, where, according to a post from the Corolla Wild Horse Fund's Facebook page, he is ruled by a goat. 

Everybody loves Raymond!
