This outbreak is being closely monitored by Public Health in coordination with Sherwood Oaks staff, a strike team of additional facility staff provided by the state, and Adventist Health.

“As a community we mourn for the residents of Sherwood Oaks who lost their lives to COVID-19,” said Health Officer Dr. Noemi Doohan. “Swift and coordinated action to prevent more illness and loss of life has been taken. It is this type of strong collaboration for the public’s health that will keep Mendocino County protected during this pandemic. Thank you Dr. Bessant Parker, Dr. William Miller and Adventist Health Mendocino Coast Hospital for providing urgently needed COVID-19 isolation care for our frail elderly.”

COVID-19 testing in response to this outbreak is still being facilitated through Public Health or through community partners for residents and employees of Sherwood Oaks. Public Health and the congregate homes throughout the County have been meeting weekly for months, to allow a coordinated response to outbreaks and to ensure congregate homes have sufficient PPE and prevention protection protocols in place. The County and congregate homes follow all the State guidelines including; using Optum Serve to do surveillance testing for 100% of staff monthly and offering surveillance testing to residents through Public Health. The preparation, planning, frequent testing and adherence to State guidelines are a key factor in quick and coordinated response to such outbreaks.

Mendocino County is still in the middle of a COVID-19 surge. Our county’s COVID-19 data does meet the criteria to place us on the state’s Watch List, but our placement on this list has not yet been confirmed by the state.

Currently, the State and local orders restrict permissible gatherings to outdoor Place of Worship faith-based services and cultural ceremonies; outdoor funeral and memorial services; as well as outdoor protests. Facial coverings must be worn by all participants in accordance with the facial covering order and physical distancing of at least 6 feet is required at all times between all persons from different households, living units or Stable Bubbles. Due to the increased risk of transmission (even outdoors), the Health Officer has also limited capacity to a maximum of 100 persons. The Health Officer does not consider drive-in/drive-through activities as gatherings, if participants follow the Guidelines for Drive-In and Drive-Through Events, stay in their cars and otherwise remain apart from individuals in separate households, living units or Stable Bubbles.

This upcoming week, Mendocino County Public Health will be issuing a revised Health Order concerning these changes in gathering allowances. It is crucial that all Mendocino County residents continue to adhere to current health orders in order to protect the health of our county.

Summary of Open and Closed Businesses and Activities, in Addition to Details on Permitted Gatherings:

  • Wear a facial covering at all times when in public
  • Practice social distancing
  • Stay home when you feel sick

If democrat governors hadn’t mandated C19 patients be placed in rest homes, those 6 deceased may have been alive today. Notice, across the country, it was only democrat governors that made these mandates. Cuomo is the most notorious, and at least Newsom rescinded the order after 10 days. Why would any rational being place infected people with the most vulnerable? Malthusian mindset at work, or are they just stupid. I’m going with both. Here’s a list of the villains.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy.
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf.
Cal. Gov. Gavin Newsom

Hmmm… That was a mistake 5 months ago that the governors have owned up to.
At this point, nobody ‘put’ Trump Virus patients in this rest home.
A virus carrier (symptomatic or not) infected them.

If Trump (“I’m not responsible, 15 cases soon to be zero, Democratic hoax, Virus is under control”) did his job, the outbreak of the virus in USA would be minimal.

Instead… this nation has become a hotbox of Covid-19 infections and deaths.
It should forever be known as the ‘Trump Virus’.
One person is responsible. Rump.

Im pretty sure whoever brought the virus here is responsible but play your politcal blame game all you want. It dont change anything. You seem to think a political move somehow stops a virus

>” You seem to think a political move somehow stops a virus.”

Oddly… some other countries have stopped the virus, via (er) smart government.
For the USA… there is no hope.

What if that is the PLAN?

IT’S NOT WHO votes, it is who counts the votes.

Black box voting has been the canary in the virus mine.

So you guys would support Trump if he started mandatory quarantine camps. Closed down the border to all international travel, strictly limited Interstate travel and tightly monitored via drone surveillance and phone tracking software, individual movements ? Because every country that has a “handle” on The Covid situation are using these three primary tactics to control the spread..

Trump used his briefings, where doctors and Pence were in charge, to berate reporters and stump for his reelection, bragging about fake shit in his brain and cuming from the TV attention.

I wouldn’t complain about him if he had shut the fuck up from day 2, walked away and left the rest to professionals so as not to create the mask confusion and doubts about this virus and American experts – that he has created.

Will you support him if he fucks with the elections (again)?
