Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino released the following statement on an Ebola inquiry made on Tuesday to the County Department of Health.
"The Westchester County Department of Health has been proactively encouraging hospitals and other medical providers to contact them if they have concerns about the Ebola virus. This is a best practice that is under way out of an abundance of caution. Since August, the health department has received 11 inquires including one made last night. Upon review none of the individuals had any risk factors, exposures or indicators that would even warrant testing for Ebola.
Most of the cases have involved people returning from trips and not feeling well. But again, after review, they have not involved Ebola.
The Health Department continues to encourage hospitals and medical providers to contact them if they have any concerns. These calls allow us to review procedures and to be prepared in the event that an actual case is identified."

Are builders going directly to homeowners to make deals to buy and demolish their homes? According to Associate Real Estate Broker Anne Moretti of Julia B. Fee Sotheby's, "Builders are definitely looking for properties more aggressively this year, and there have been some direct sales. Still, most owners realize that MLS exposure typically nets the owner more money, even for a home which has "substantial deferred maintenance" (otherwise known as a teardown)." As for agents, Licensed Realtor Jennifer Constantin of Jula B. Fee Sotheby's agrees, saying, "Agents would rather have a home go to market."
