TODAY'S SITUATION
To date, the State has received 19,133 Mission Requests which continue to strain their ability to prioritize and
fulfill these requests.
State EOC Updates:
• The State is ordering another 30 to 45 days' worth of food for the State. Counties will be required to
provide the data analytics when submitting their Mission Requests. • Sheltering — State is still working
on Sheltering Guidance for this Hurricane Season. For Congregated Sheltering, the America Red Cross
guidance is 110 square feet per shelter participant. This is only a guidance, NOT a requirement. As of
today, FEMA will reimburse for those that have something else then the 110 square feet. If a County
requests the Red Cross to manage their Shelter, then the Red Cross will require that the Shelter their
110 square feet guidance. Page 2 of 2
• The State is still working on their guidance for Sheltering this Hurricane Season and will hopefully have
this guidance pushed out to the Counties in the next week or two.
• Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA)-Emergency Rule 59AER20-3, Mandatory Entry for
Testing and Infection Control for Nursing Homes
St. Lucie County EOC Updates:
• Continue Monitoring the Public Information Line (PIL): 772-460-3547 (HELP ) assisting citizens issues,
particularly those pertaining to unmet needs.
Last week, as we have had since March 19, we had the lines open 6 days per week M-F 8am-6 pm, and
8 am-5 pm on Saturday. The line answered a total of 376 questions. (Monday was day 1 of SLC's Rental
assistance program).
We have the capacity to have 3 lines open, and began the week that way, but midweek reduced to 2
lines with the capacity to send in relief if needed.
COMPREHENSIVE STAKEHOLDER STATUS UPDATES
Department of Health in St. Lucie (DOH) — Two hundred eight -four (284) positive COVID-19 Residents,
including nine (9) positive COVID-19 non-residents. Five thousand three hundred thirty-six (5,336) COVID-19
lab testing reports came in.
The Department has established a goal to test two percent of the population each month above long term care
in your area as a part of the state's phase one re -opening strategy beginning May 4th. To meet this goal in the
month of May, each County Health Department (CHD) will coordinate with community partners to expand testing
offered in the community to meet daily targets. Initially the primary focus is virus testing from respiratory swabs
which will help identify those that need contact tracing.

Social distancing, closure of buildings for public access, monitoring of all employees reporting to duty, and
increased disinfection practices continue to be practiced. We have observed a decreasing trend in number of
combined respiratory distress, sick, fever, malaise, and weakness calls. Our burn rates have not been updated
for the week so we are unable to provide one. However, we do not anticipate an increase. We currently do not
have any unmet needs. Our stockpile of PPE is still adequate for the immediate future. We continue to seek
PPE from vendors. It is becoming increasingly more available but at inflated prices.

may vary locally along with reductions in visitor capacity to ensure social distancing. Visitors should check the
Department's website at www.floridastateparks.org for the latest information. Compliance with social distancing
requirements and approved activities will be enforced and failure to comply with proper social distancing or
approved activities may result in law enforcement action or park closure.
For a complete list of open parks and available amenities, please visit www.floridastateparks.org.
The Florida Department of Health COVID-19 Call Center can be accessed by calling 1-(866) 779-6121. The
Call Center is available 24 hours / 7 days. Public Information Line 772-460-HELP (4357). Inquiries may also
be emailed to COVID-19(a)flhealth.gov. You can also contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) for information by calling 1-800-CDC-INFO (800-232-4636) or go
to https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html. High recommendation is given to practice protective
measures for employees, essential functions, and alternate work capabilities (e.g., telework, alternate
schedules). For detailed information on preparing the workplace see the Occupational Safety and Health
(OSHA) Guidance on Preparing Workplaces for COVID-19.
To ensure continuity of operations of essential functions, the CDC advises that critical infrastructure workers
may be permitted to continue work following potential exposure to COVID-19, provided they remain
asymptomatic and additional precautions are implemented to protect them and the community. Critical
Infrastructure workers who have had an exposure but remain asymptomatic should adhere to the following
practices prior to and during their work shift:
• Pre -Screen: Employers should measure the employee's temperature and assess symptoms prior to
them starting work. Ideally, temperature checks should happen before the individual enters the facility.
• Regular Monitoring: As long as the employee doesn't have a temperature or symptoms, they should
self -monitor under the supervision of their employer's occupational health program.
• Wear a Mask: The employee should wear a face mask at all times while in the workplace for 14 days
after last exposure. Employers can issue facemasks or can approve employees' supplied cloth face
coverings in the event of shortages.
• Social Distance: The employee should maintain 6 feet and practice social distancing as work duties
permit in the workplace.
• Disinfect and Clean Work Spaces: Clean and disinfect all areas such as offices, bathrooms, common
areas, shared electronic equipment routinely.

We use many different tools to assess the timing and impact of COVID-19 on the community:
• Emergency Department data is monitored for people coming to the Emergency Department with
symptoms compatible with COVID-19, such as cough, fever and shortness of breath.
• St. Lucie County Fire District monitors all calls related to various complaints, among them are
symptoms compatible with COVID-19 such as; cough, fever and malaise & respiratory distress.
• Health Department personnel are working daily with facilities (nursing homes, group homes,
long term care facilities, rehabilitation centers and assisted living facilities) to prevent the spread
of COVID-19 among the most vulnerable members of our community, the elderly. Once COVID-
19 is introduced into a facility, the threat to the residents is significant and must be addressed
aggressively.
• St. Lucie County has initiated a COVID Disaster Recovery Plan to review the recovery strategy
framework focusing on key conditions, criteria for transitioning of phases and guidelines on
reopening. The COVID Disaster Recovery Plan seeks to ensure local health officials have a key
role in reviewing and approving any changes in current restrictions.

COVID Surveillance
In Florida, a system called ESSENCE provides an early warning system for diseases and conditions of
public health importance. In partnership with hospitals and other facilities, the Health Department
receives real-time information on resident visits to the hospital Emergency Department about certain
"syndromes" or a specific collection of symptoms, that are indicative of diseases of public health
concern. This data is monitored daily and the system identifies syndromes of importance at the first
encounter with the hospital ED allowing for rapid intervention and preemptive control of disease spread.

Week
• Influenza activity in St. Lucie is currently mild.
• FDOH-St. Lucie uses different factors to estimate influenza burden in our community. One
of the key indicators of influenza activity in a season is the percentage of emergency room
visits with complaints or diagnoses of influenza like illness (ILI) or influenza.
• Percentages over a 2.4% baseline indicate above average community illness.
• In past seasons, St. Lucie County would see numbers increase over baseline for a few
weeks but this season the percentage of emergency room visits for the flu went over the
baseline in early October and has continued through March 2020. During April and over the
last 14 days the percent has continued to decrease.

HEALTH

Governor
Scott A. Rivkees, MD
State Surgeon General
We must all stay vigilant and continue to follow the latest guidelines from local, state and federal
updates in order to keep yourself and others protected especially our most vulnerable populations. We
are continuing to "stay the course" with social distancing, public awareness, prevention and hygienic
measures that have been effective elsewhere in the world and appear to have also been effective in
preventing more COVID-19 cases in St. Lucie County.
COVID Testing
There have been many ongoing discussions about the role of COVID-19 antibody testing and future
plans for seroprevalence studies in coordination with public health partners. Validated laboratory -
based serologic tests (blood tests) will be useful for understanding the proportion of our population that
have been infected with COVID-19. In regard to rapid antibody testing, these point -of -care antibody
tests are currently being evaluated to develop effective strategies and recommendations on how they
will be useful in COIVD-19 response. The role of the antibody testing to determine best strategies to
decrease spread in a community has not been determined at this time. It has yet to be determined if
COVID-19 infection causes long term immunity.
Positivity Rate
The rate of positivity is an important indicator because it can provide insights into whether a community
is conducting enough testing to find cases. If a community's positivity is high, it suggests that that
community may largely be testing the sickest patients and possibly missing milder or asymptomatic
cases. A lower positivity may indicate that a community is including in its testing patients with milder or
no symptoms. The WHO has said that in countries that have conducted extensive testing for COVID-19
positivity ranges between 3-12%. https:Hcoronavirus.mhu.edu/testinq/individual-states
For St. Lucie County, the current average positivity rates for the past 14 days was approximately 3.5%
What you Should Know
COVID-19 can spread from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth, including
when an individual coughs or sneezes. These droplets may land on objects and surfaces. Other people
may contract COVID-19 by touching these objects or surfaces, then touching their eyes, nose or mouth.
Symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough and shortness of breath. Symptoms may appear in as few as
two days or as many as 14 days following exposure. Most people recover from COVID-19 without
needing special treatment. The elderly and those with underlying medical problems like high blood
pressure, heart problems and diabetes are more likely to develop serious illness.
There is currently no vaccine to prevent COVID-19. The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being
exposed to the virus. The Department recommends everyday preventive actions to help stop the
spread of respiratory diseases, including:
• Avoiding close contact with people who are sick;
• Staying home when you are sick and avoiding contact with persons in poor health;
• Avoiding touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands;

Discussion of COVID-19 continues each day and we are providing updates from OSHA and the Centers of Disease Control
(CDC). Risk Management encourages that the guidelines and recommendations be followed as best practice. We also
recommend visiting their websites frequently as more updates are being posted as additional information regarding COVID-19 is
gathered. The CDC for Social Distancing guidelines has been extended to April 30, 2020.
Below are current recommendation from the CDC's website as of March 25, 2020:
1. Employees can take steps to protect themselves at work and at home. People with serious chronic medical conditions are at
a higher risk for complications.
2. All employees should follow out procedures for illness, stay home if you are sick and inform your supervisor if you have
someone who is sick.
3. Take your temperature as your enter the EOC and document on the provided log. Please do the same again as your leave
the EOC.
4. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use hand sanitizer throughout the day.
5. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
6. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your sleeve when you cough or sneeze. Throw used tissues in the trash and
immediately wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds.
7. Clean AND disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces such as workstations, keyboards, telephones, handrails, and
doorknobs.
8. Avoid using other employee's phones, workstations, or other work tools. If you have used them, clean AND disinfect after
each use.
9. Practice social distancing by avoiding gathering and maintaining six (6) feet from each other at all times.
HR/Risk Management has a vendor on standby to disinfect the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) as needed. Please direct
requests to disinfect to HR Director or Risk Manager.
For more information regarding specific policies and safe operating procedures, please contact HR/Risk Management.
