READING — Among those helping the tornado-stricken town of Reading last week, Franklin County’s mobile command and clinic trailer. At the request of the state, Franklin County emergency management director Alan Radcliffe took the trailer to Reading, where the Lyon County Public Health Department used it as an emergency health clinic. Over the last week, Lyon County public health staffers gave more than 100 tetanus vaccinations to Reading residents and volunteers who stepped on nails and or received cuts, he said. Franklin County received a pickup and the trailer for free with the condition that it be available for disasters in northeast Kansas.
