I have spoken to Dutchess County to discuss the high numbers of Covid-19 cases in East Fishkill.  This is due to our Town having a high density population.  There are no clusters of Covid-19 in the Town.
Please expect further distributions in the future as New York State and/or Dutchess County provide them.
