Blanchard Valley Health System (BVHS) is reopening its Findlay COVID-19 testing center, 1900 South Main Street, Findlay, in response to the region’s rising COVID-19 cases.
If patients are symptomatic, they will need to schedule an appointment with their primary care provider (PCP). A PCP will determine if a COVID-19 test is needed and will place an order for testing at Blanchard Valley Hospital (BVH). Appointments are required. The drive-through testing site is open from Monday through Friday from noon to 5 p.m.
It is the season of transition from summer to fall, and for many students from freedom to structure. Many students have a mix of excitement and dread for the upcoming school year. Even with this mixture, students commonly benefit from the increased structure school offers--it is built in socialization, cognitive exercise, physical activity, and provides opportunity for a routine sleep schedule. All students are encouraged to maintain these activities and structures outside of school year but oftentimes it dissipates slowly.
Chicken wire is a thin, flexible mesh of galvanized steel with hexagonal gaps meant to contain chickens and fowl. The wire comes in gap diameters of ½, 1, and 2 inches with gauges between 19 and 22. Chicken wire was used during World War II for radar fields and over helmets to insert leaves to make camouflage. Chicken wire can block radio and Wi-Fi signals by creating a Faraday cage. The Faraday cage was invented in 1936 by Michael Faraday to protect sensitive electronic equipment within an enclosure from external radio waves. So why am I writing about chicken wire?
