HUTCHINSON, Kan. — In a Saturday email, Reno County Commissioner and State Senator-elect Dr. Mark Steffen provided to Hutch Post and community members a site he is calling Reno County Citizens for Transparency.
"So much about our nation's and our state's response to the virus has been troubling," Steffen says in the email. "Common sense and time-tested methods have been discarded."
His site includes research on alternative therapies for COVID-19 and studies that he cites in asserting that mask usage is ineffective.
The Board of Reno County Commissioners will meet Tuesday and likely review the recently renewed Health Order that continues to promote mask usage and social distancing measures in the county.
That meeting is Tuesday morning at 9 a.m. at the Reno County courthouse.
