How does the board make decisions and make health recommendations when there is so much conflicting information?

The Board of Health meets once a month at an open town meeting and the Director updates members with information in between meetings. We have open discussions at meetings with Board of Health Members and the Director with regards to issues that come up. The Public Health nurse, other community members and associated organizations will also be present as needed. As a practicing Primary Care, Internal Medicine Physician, I keep updated with validated new health guidelines as they come out and am able to provide my view point and support to the Board as needed.
