It looks like the Charles Co. Dept. of Health site has been hacked.

For the past few days I kept getting these Google news alerts for money making schemes on the "Charles County Department of Health" site. I thought it looked a little strange, but assumed that maybe they were trying to help people earn some money in a tough economy. After receiving yet another one today that looked even more suspicious, I foolishly clicked on the link in the email from Google and my browser quickly tried to redirect to some ".ru" site. Fortunately, my Malwarebytes.org Anti-Exploit blocked it. (Lesson #1: You can't even trust a link sent to you from Google)

So I googled the URL contained in the email from Google alerts and then looked at the cache of the page. They've definitely been hacked. I would stay away from the site until they clean it up.
