Today, we recognize the sacrifices our healthcare professionals have made throughout this pandemic and every day. We are so grateful for the North Carolinians who have answered the call to help others in our hospitals, nursing facilities and communities. https://t.co/RJXcfGBGS1 https://t.co/bhL49eGGfS — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you to the NCORR team for the hard work and the long hours that you’ve put in making sure this money can move as fast as the federal government will let us. Especially as we’ve battled COVID-19, it's good to know that we can press ahead on these other critical missions. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

We know help can never come fast enough if you’ve been devastated by disaster. But NCORR’s diligent work to act quickly will mean recovery money getting in the hands of people who need it sooner. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

But when it was time, North Carolina was on it and turned in an action plan within 24 hours and was the first state to receive approval of our plan. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

The program starting today took the federal government almost two years--500 days-- after Florence made landfall to publish the register laying out the requirements of how this money can be invested. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Much work already has been done. To date, North Carolina has provided more than $3.5 billion in state and federal funding for Hurricane Matthew and Florence recovery. Already, the recovery office has identified and approved more than 1,300 homes for CDBG funding. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Despite the virus, the work of hurricane recovery continues, and today, the state opens a new application process for homeowners seeking federal housing funding for Florence repairs. — PolitiTweet.org

Some North Carolinians and their communities are still recovering from the devastation of Hurricanes Matthew and Florence. These families are dealing with the threat of COVID-19 while they are trying to rebuild their homes and businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

As our Emergency Operations Center stays activated for our COVID-19 response, a dedicated team at the North Carolina Office of Recovery and Resiliency (NCORR) remains focused on another response – recovery from hurricanes. — PolitiTweet.org

Over the weekend, I talked to Vice President Pence about North Carolina’s concerning numbers. I asked him to help us with increasing our testing capabilities, especially in these counties. Another focus will be testing all nursing home residents & staff. This testing is ongoing. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Our @NCDHHS team is pushing assistance to local health departments, especially in the counties experiencing the highest growth — Alamance, Duplin, Durham, Forsyth, Guilford, Johnston, Lee, Mecklenburg and Wake are of particular concern. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

We’re watching these numbers closely to monitor for hospital bed & ICU bed capacity. Right now, our hospitals do have bed capacity, and that’s good. But that can change quickly. As we see North Carolina’s upward trends, we must redouble our work detecting & isolating this virus. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

Even during a weekend when the actual reporting of cases and hospitalizations slows down a bit, we continued to see record-high case counts. And we continue to be concerned with our percentage of positive tests and our hospitalizations. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Roy Cooper @NC_Governor

As of today, North Carolina has 45,102 lab-confirmed cases; 983 new cases reported today; 797 people in the hospital; and sadly, 1,118 people who have died. We continue to pray for those who've lost loved ones, and for those who are still hospitalized. — PolitiTweet.org

Albert Whiting made a lasting impact on thousands of students and played a critical role in shaping NCCU into the school it is today. North Carolina's education system is better because of Dr. Whiting's work, and our prayers are with his loved ones. https://t.co/UiuS4ZdHul — PolitiTweet.org
