For current information within the region, visit KyCovid19.

In the event of a discrepancy between case confirmations, please note kycovid19.ky.gov is reporting confirmed cases by the Kentucky Department of Public Health (KDPH). We are working diligently to confirm cases as they are reported to KDPH.
This is a projection of the number of people in each county within Lincoln Trail District Health Department who could become infected if we strictly comply with at least three months of social distancing measures. This graph also shows the difference in the number of potential cases we could see due to poor compliance with the Governor’s guidelines. Such a surge in cases would put a strain on healthcare resources and could result in a large loss of life. Data compiled by and maintained by Lincoln Trail District Health Department.

Community Guidance

Locally in Hardin County, Red River Waste Solutions will continue their regularly scheduled routes. In addition, we are asking all citizens to bag all material placed for trash collection. Out of an abundance of caution due to COVID-19, waste collectors have been instructed not to pick up any loose trash, trash placed on the ground or trash stuck inside receptacles. Each bag should be hand tied by gathering and twisting the neck of the bag and using a tie or hand knot to secure the bag, and each container should be securely closed.

If you have developed a fever or respiratory symptoms and believe you have had exposure to a known case or traveled to an area with community spread, isolate yourself from others in your home and contact your healthcare provider or local health department to describe your symptoms and any recent travel before you go to the healthcare facility.

Social distancing is key to keeping Kentuckians safe. It is essential that Kentuckian’s participate in the following social distancing activities:

  • It is advised that all community gatherings be cancelled
  • All 172 school districts, the Kentucky School for the Blind and Kentucky School for the Deaf will close
  • Avoid all non-essential travel. Do not fly. Do not participate in cruise travel.
  • Recommend the temporary closure of senior centers to help halt the spread of the virus for those most vulnerable
  • All state prisons are closed to visitors
  • Recommend businesses to utilize telecommuting and allow employees to work from home if possible
  • State boards and commissions have canceled any scheduled in-person meetings and instead will use video teleconference technology
  • Hospitals are asked to cease elective procedures

This guidance will continue to change as circumstances warrant.
