The taskforce that I assembled last year has been in constant contact with the area hospitals regarding the issue of this swine flu. The mayor and I have been talking from day one in dealing with this issue. Anyone that has any concerns in reference to this issue should reach out to Solaris, and they will give you the information that you need in terms of treatment, prevention, and other valuable information to combat this flu. They have outlined a plan, which they submitted to the State. Therefore, the State, the County, as well as Plainfield are all aware of this outline.
Fortunately, working with the Mayor, we have been able to identify how we can deal with this issue if it begins to affect Plainfield as well as our neighboring communities.
If anyone has any further questions regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to call JFK Hospital and/or my District Office so I can put you in touch with the appropriate authorities.
I want to publically thank the Mayor of Plainfield, as well as the other mayors in my district for moving in a proactive approach in dealing with this issue.

People having problems should feel free to go to the SED--the current emergency room--at Muhlenberg. It's still open and from what I hear functions much better than the ER at JFK, where waiting time can be quite long.
Dear Assemblyman Green,
Thank you for posting the information regarding the task force being in contact with other hospitals. Would you mind posting more information regarding the task force and addressing concerns in regard to the functions that it may or may not provide for the communities affected by the loss of Muhlenberg ? For example, is transportation provided for seniors with limited means by volunteers?
Thank you for your time and best regards.
