The leader of a central Illinois hospital remains minimally concerned about the coronavirus making a great impact on central Illinois. CEO of Warner Hospital and Health Services in Clinton, Illinois, Paul Skowron, believes the coronavirus coming to central Illinois is not of grave concern for him at this time. He feels because the area doesn't have major gathering places, the likelihood of it spreading is small.

Skowron credits national and world health organizations for their proactivity in educating the public about this outbreak and taking appropriate measures to keep the public safe.
