Letter to the Editor: Outrage at the termination of Emily Brown

To the editor,


I am writing you to express my outrage at the termination of Emily Brown from the Rio Grande County Health Department.


Not only is she one of the most qualified people to direct the department of health; we are in the midst of a pandemic and need capable and educated leaders to help get us through this crisis! Terminating her at this time, or any other, is a serious and even dangerous blunder on the part of the BOCC.
