We're increasing our capacity for testing at our local public health lab.

Public health is among 10 California health labs that have received CDC test kits, and we have additional kits on the way we are currently testing and have been since last Wednesday.

Locally for Covert 19 we will ensure that people who test positive for the novel Corona virus and they're close contacts are quickly identified and closely monitored and supported while they're in isolation and or quarantined.

We will start tomorrow with daily radio briefings on three different stations by the public health director, and I'll be joined by our health officer.

We are in contact with over 3500 leaders and administrators across the county on a weekly basis.

We're holding an educational webinar for all of our skilled nursing facilities at the end of this week so that they, too, can make sure they're adequately prepared for the possibility of cases within their facilities.

Our healthcare workforce is a high priority.

We are updating our pandemic response plan for covert 19 in accordance with CDC guidance and local conditions, and working with the Office of Emergency Management of There, we are opening our E O.

C uh, today to coordinate across the city departments.

As you know, there are increasing cases of covert 19 across the United States.

Today we're announcing six new cases. 00:14:52.740 --> 00:15:1.920  We've confirmed these cases as of last night with positive lab results from our local lab and we have completed investigations. 00:15:3.210 --> 00:15:10.050  All of our cases, all of our six new cases are linked to an assumed known exposure.

There's either a travel history to an area with an outbreak.

There's exposure to known travelers coming from areas where there's an outbreak or the person is a close contact with a confirmed case I want to repeat.

We have information that allows us to allows us to announce that we know of assumed known exposure source for all six of our new cases that we're announcing today.

This means that as of today, we still don't have known cases of community transmission.

Like other large jurisdictions, we anticipate more local cases.

This is because they're increases in outbreaks all across the world. 00:15:55.860 --> 00:16:5.590  And the fact is that people who are in close contact with folks who are infected with novel Corona virus can themselves become infected. 00:16:6.220 --> 00:16:16.150  We know that we have effective public health interventions that slow the spread of infectious diseases, especially when we're all working together.

I want to start with what's most important, stay home if you're sick, sick people make other people sick.

That's the main route of transmission, a sick person coming into contact with somebody who's well.

So if you're sick with anything, including mild illness, we need people to stay home.

We need people to wash their hands with soap and water for a least 20 seconds.

Frequently, Uh, we need people to cover their coughs or their sneezes with tissues, and then throw those tissues into the trash and wash your hands.

A county, but we still need people to adhere to common sense public health practices. 00:16:59.630 --> 00:17:8.010  And there's still time for people to get immunized against the flu, and we encourage this, as many cases is we have of influenza. 00:17:8.200 --> 00:17:19.370  Reducing that number reduces the burden and the stress on our health care system, which will see more need to respond to the increasing number of cases of covert 19.

We also ask that the public plan for the possibility of more extensive social distancing requirements.

These measures would include having an ample supply of essentials at home, no different than the preparedness activities we ask people to do to be ready for natural disasters.

The plan for the possibility of business disruptions, school closures and modifications or cancellations of select public events.

We will be working closely with schools and public event venues and businesses before decisions are made to close. 00:17:59.940 --> 00:18:6.840  But this is a time for people to have a plan of what they would do should their child's school need to close. 00:18:7.210 --> 00:18:14.580  We ask everyone to start practicing Sze sort of what we called simple social distancing practices.

Uh, use verbal salutations in place of handshakes and hugs.

And, whenever possible, try to keep six feet between you and other people that you don't know at large events.

If you're an organization of business, a human service provider, there are additional strategies that we ask you to adopt you.

We need you to make sure that your bathrooms air well stocked and consume port.

Hand washing. 00:18:44.620 --> 00:19:3.510  We need folks to take a look at their sick leave policies so that their flexible, non punitive and consistent with public health guidance implement plans that allow people to stay home if they're mildly ill without the risk of being academically or financially penalized. 00:19:4.220 --> 00:19:14.800  Make sure it's your business and at your organization's location that you're performing regular cleaning and disinfection for for frequently touched surfaces.

Ensure that your continuity of operation plans are up to date so that your essential functions can continue should you see large numbers of people that are sick and unable to get to work.
