Brookfield has now lost 7 residents to COVID-19.  State reports suggest new infections have plateaued, but First Selectman Steve Dunn says it’s essential to continue to protect the community by isolating and following social distancing guidelines.  Brookfield has had 147 confirmed cases of coronavirus, with no new information on those hospitalized. 54 people are reported as having recovered. The data reporting systems are still sporadic so Brookfield officials are only report those cases confirmed by the Director of Public Health.  Brookfield has arranged to test all police, fire, EMS and town employees for coronavirus and antibodies, which Dunn says will help ensure they are safe.  The test takes five minutes and results are returned in 24 hours.
