BinaxNow.<\/p>\n<p>By screening with rapid antigen tests, event attendees will be able to receive their test results within 15 minutes via text notification. The test also is less invasive than a PCR (Polymerase chain reaction) test in that it uses a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=iVoNhZY5TI8&amp;feature=youtu.be\">nasal swab to collect a sample<\/a> from the lower part of the nostril.<\/p>\n<p>If a person tests positive, they should isolate at home immediately and a case investigator will be in touch with them within 24 hours. If the screening yields a negative result, individuals should continue to monitor for symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>Interested individuals should fill out an online survey at <a href=\"https:\/\/testreg.nd.gov\/\">testreg.nd.gov<\/a> for faster registration.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about rapid antigen tests and North Dakota\u2019s screening strategies, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.nd.gov\/rapid-antigen-screening\">https:\/\/www.health.nd.gov\/rapid-antigen-screening<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-221188\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/COVID-Vacc-Mar-16-2021-300x202.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/COVID-Vacc-Mar-16-2021-300x202.png 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/COVID-Vacc-Mar-16-2021-260x175.png 260w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/COVID-Vacc-Mar-16-2021.png 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Jamestown\u00a0 (CVHD)\u00a0 Central Valley Health District\u00a0 will be offering a<strong> first dose COVID vaccination clinic for those in priority group Phase<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1C<\/strong> <strong>on Tuesday, March 16, from 10:00am \u2013 2:00pm at the Jamestown Civic Center in<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>the Exchequer Room.

(AP) \u2014 Gov. Doug Burgum is recovering after undergoing hip replacement surgery. The Bismarck Tribune reports the 64-year-old Burgum had surgery Friday to replace his left hip. Gubernatorial authority was briefly delegated to Lt. Gov. Brent Sanford on Friday morning. Sanford said he didn&#8217;t take any actions before Burgum resumed his authority. Burgum spokesman Mike Nowatzki says the governor is expected to be discharged from the hospital late Friday. Burgum issued a statement saying the surgery went well and he looks forward to pain-free horseback rides. He joked that his career as a college hurdler is over.<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A replacement representative for the seat of a North Dakota lawmaker expelled has been named. District 36 Republicans\u2019 executive committee on Thursday night unanimously appointed Dori Hauck, of rural Richardton. She is a rancher, writer and music teacher, and has served as the secretary-treasurer for the district party since 2012. Hauck succeeds former representative Luke Simons, whom the House expelled last week for allegedly threatening and sexually harassing women at the Capitol. District 36 GOP Chairman John Enderle says he expects Hauck will be sworn in on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Bismarck\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 Seasonal load restrictions will be placed on additional North Dakota highways across the state Monday, March 15, at 7 a.m. CST.

The ND DOCR is committed to ensuring the safety of all public, team members, visitors, and adult and youth residents while also recognizing the importance of their well-being by offering visitation with COVID-19 safeguards in place.<\/p>\n<p>Each facility will have specific guidelines; however, all will follow the same basic rules, which are subject to change:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A COVID-19 test must be administered no more than five days before the scheduled visitation date with negative results OR a rapid BinaxNOW\u2122 COVID-19 test must be administered with a negative result at the specific facility prior to visitation<\/li>\n<li><\/li>\n<li>There will be COVID-19 symptoms screenings which will include temperature checks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One adult visitor is allowed per visitation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>N95 masks must be worn by the visitor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The ND DOCR will share the identities of all visitors with the ND Department of Health (NDDoH) in order to trace visitors who show no signs of illness at the time of visit but subsequently test positive for COVID-19.

We know it has been an extremely tough year on everyone by suspending in-person visitation early on; we are excited to welcome friends and family back in to visiting their loved ones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In order to maintain proper social distancing, all visits must be pre-scheduled due to limited occupancy.

The settlement was announced Friday as jury selection continued in the trial of Derek Chauvin, a white former officer charged with murder and manslaughter in Floyd\u2019s death. Floyd family attorney Ben Crump planned a lawsuit later in the day. Floyd was declared dead May 25 after Chauvin pressed his knee against his neck for about nine minutes. Floyd\u2019s family filed the federal civil rights lawsuit in July against the city, Chauvin and three other fired officers charged in his death.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 An investigation into the official response to Daniel Prude\u2019s police suffocation death last year in Rochester, New York, is faulting the city\u2019s mayor and former police chief for keeping critical details of the case secret for months and lying to the public about what they knew. The report, commissioned by Rochester\u2019s city council and made public Friday, said Mayor Lovely Warren lied at a September press conference when she said it wasn\u2019t until August that she learned officers had physically restrained Prude during the March 23 encounter. Warren was told that day, the report said, and by mid-April she, then-Chief La\u2019Ron Singletary and other officials were aware that Prude had died as a result and that the officers were under criminal investigation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ALBANY, N.Y.

The 2018 policy called on Health and Human Services to share information about family sponsors with immigration authorities, a move that discouraged parents and other relatives from stepping forward out of fear they would be deported. The move is another step to repeal policies of former President Donald Trump that discouraged people from seeking refuge in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Millions of coronavirus vaccine doses are in cold storage in the U.S. but can\u2019t be injected because they are not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration. But the Biden administration is not yet allowing those doses to be sent overseas, where American allies are struggling to get enough vaccine for vulnerable populations. U.S. partners are prodding President Joe Biden to release supplies of AstraZeneca&#8217;s vaccine that are sitting idle, noting that the administration has lined up enough doses of the three already-approved vaccines to cover every American adult by the end of May and the entire U.S. population by the end of July.
