Classic Air awards Marland Billie

An Arizona Department of Transportation employee on Jan. 2, 2020, was performing routine sign maintenance. That morning, at about 9 a.m., a driver and four passengers were traveling southbound on U.S. Route 89A, near Cliff Dwellers Stone House. They crashed into a ravine. Four hours later, trooper Jacob Perger received a call about an unknown injury collision at milepost 548. “An ADOT worker (Marland Billie) was informed by a UPS driver there was a car in a ravine off the side of the road,” Perger said.

Coronavirus and misinformation

County Supervisor Lena Fowler and Navajo Parks and Recreation Manager Effie Yazzie met with Navajo Nation staff and Navajo tour operators. The topic was the coronavirus. A presentation was given by the Navajo Nation Division of Health, Tuba City Regional Health Care Corporation, Page Banner Hospital, and the Coconino County Health Department. The purpose of the meeting was to educate, but it also helped dispel some of the misinformation circulating. Some of the questions brought up were concerns about animals in the area. Explanations were given about the virus’s mutations, which continue, and that it has become a human virus. Others were concerned about handling money that may transmit the virus. This is unlikely.
