Local forum planned on Ebola virus

Flathead Valley Community College will host a Community Forum on Ebola virus on Monday, Nov. 10, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

The event is free and open to public and will be in the large community meeting room in the college’s Arts and Technology Building.

On hand to answer questions will be Dr. Jeffrey Tjaden, an infectious disease specialist, and Joe Russell, the Flathead City-County Public Health Officer, along with other representatives from Kalispell Regional Healthcare and North Valley Hospital.

These experts will take questions from the crowd at the end of the presentation and will try to curb fears about Ebola as well as quashing any unfounded rumors.
