The State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) is tracking 4,701 active resource requests from

implemented partial curfews. Currently one County's government is fully closed, 37 County

After the Local State of Emergency was declared the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) was

rhythm, developing messaging and participating in conference calls with the State EOC and with
local partners. ESFs identified unmet needs, and requests for medical equipment, medical supplies,
cleaning supplies and laptop computers have been logged in WebEOC. Cleaning and medical
supplies are on back order at Florida Division of Emergency Management. Currently, the EOC has
been communicating with the County's approximate 230 Healthcare Facilities as well as the County's
first response agencies. Currently approximately 5,500 items for Personal Protective Equipment
