Firefighter first-responders stricken by virus
SAN BERNARDINO – (INT) – More first-responders are being stricken by the coronavirus.

The first two San Bernardino County firefighters have tested positive for COVID-19. One is with the San Bernardino County Fire Protection District and the other the Montclair Fire Department. Both are feeling well and remain in isolation. Both firefighters are being medically monitored by their primary physicians, according to a statement issued Sunday.

The San Bernardino County Regional All Hazard IMT has been planning for the last three weeks for the possibility of exposure and infection to the county’s first responders. The team’s plan, already in place, ensures that fire, rescue, and EMS service delivery will not be interrupted regardless of jurisdiction.
