ver two dozen vehicles meandered through a Rialto neighborhood Friday morning steered by Boyd Elementary School teachers and

staff in a spirited show of love to their students, waving and sounding the horn as they drove past.

“When we found out we wouldn’t see our kiddos again for the rest of the school year we wanted

to let them know that we miss them and that we love them and we’re thinking about them,” said Boyd Principal Kaynee Correoso. Boyd

ollowing Governor Gavin Newsom’s executive order April 3 that restricts water shutoffs to homes and small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, the West Valley Water District (WVWD) Board of Directors approved a measure that temporarily lifts the hiring freeze for critical vacant positions that will help improve operations and ensure ratepayers continue to have access to safe drinking water. WVWD Board President Channing Hawkins said, “Water is a critical public resource, which means we have to stay vigilant and operational during the coronavirus pandemic to protect West Valley ratepayers, residents and families. This also means filling water operations positions that are essential to delivering safe drinking water.” Governor Newsom signed an executive order that restricts water shutoffs to homes and

small businesses while the State of California responds to the COVID-19 pandemic. The executive order also restores water for occupied residences that may have had their water shut off as of March 4, 2020 when the Governor proclaimed a state of emergency. However, WVWD is one of over 100 public and private water systems across California that already voluntarily suspended water shutoffs for non-payment as a result of COVID-19. In addition to these protections, the WVWD is also offering ratepayers experiencing financial hardship the opportunity to apply for a payment plan. The board-approved positions include a supervising water system operator, two lead water system operators, and three water system operators. Earlier this year, the WVWD Board of Directors approved a temporary hiring freeze of personnel to WVWD, cont. on next pg.

Public Health officer recommends face coverings during essential outings

an Bernardino County health officials are recommending people use face coverings when leaving home to conduct essential business such as grocery shopping, going to a medical appointment or visiting a pharmacy to help flatten the curve of Covid-19. The County made the recommendation after reviewing guidance released on April 1 from the state Department of Public Health. Face coverings may include coverings that secure to the ears or back of the head and encompass the mouth and nose. Homemade cloth ear loop covers, bandannas and handkerchiefs, and neck gaiters may be used to reduce the spread of Covid-19 particularly among asymptomatic people. Staying home, practicing social

distancing and frequent handwashing are far more effective ways to combat the spread of Covid-19, and face coverings are not a substitute for continuing those practices, said Acting County Public Health Officer Dr. Erin Gustafson. “Surgical masks and N95 masks should not be used because they must be preserved for healthcare workers and emergency responders,” Gustafson said. “If you do use a face covering, make sure to practice frequent hand washing before and after touching and adjusting the covering.” Wash cloth face coverings frequently after each use -- at least daily. Place face coverings in a bag until washing them in detergent with hot water and dried on a hot cycle. Discard cloth face coverings that no longer cover the nose and mouth; have stretched

out or damaged ties and straps; cannot stay on the face; and have holes or tears in the fabric. “Covering your face may help reduce the chance that asymptomatic people spread COVID-19. This is not as effective as staying home and practicing social distancing,” said Curt Hagman, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. “We all need to do our part to flatten the curve and residents should use this as one more tool to stop the spread of this disease.”” For more information about Covid-19 in San Bernardino County, please visit sbcovid19.com. The public can also contact the coronavirus public information line from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday at (909) 387-3911, or email the County at coronavirus@dph.sbcounty.gov.

Boyd “We want to let the kids know how much love we have,” she said emotionally. “This is a bulldog family here… and this is my second family.” Myra Vera-Rizo brought her son Adan Vera (5th grade) and daughter Bella Vera (kinder) to greet teachers as they exited the school parking lot in a caravan. “They’re here to support us, so we wanted to show our support to them, too,” she said, holding a bright blue home-made banner that read, “Hooray Boyd staff you rock!” Enrichment packets have been sent out to students, and teachers district wide are preparing to launch Google Classroom on April 13.

WVWD reevaluate recruitment and hiring practices. Following this freeze, the Water District hired an interim human resources manager and transferred all recruitment, transfers, salary increases and performance evaluation powers to the human resources department. Though these positions have long been vacant, WVWD has full confidence in the interim human resources manager’s ability to adhere to protocol and secure qualified employees for the Water District’s open positions.

Each of these positions is assigned to the operations department which is responsible for protecting our water supply, monitoring water quality and regulatory compliance, and maintaining water treatment facilities and transmission lines to deliver safe drinking water. The most critical position, supervising water systems operator, leads the water quality division and has four primary functions: water quality and regulatory compliance, and managing the cross-connection control program, the commercial account

program and underground service alerts. Other vacant operator positions will provide support to the maintenance, meter services and water treatment divisions. Prior to the regular meeting the Board met in closed session and WVWD’s general counsel reported a severance agreement with an employee who requested a separation from the organization for personal reasons. The WVWD is temporarily filling the role with the dedicated and experienced Peggy Asche, an executive assistant, who has served WVWD for

Before facilitating an external search for these positions, the interim human resources manager will conduct an internal search

process. The WVWD offers career growth, promotion and transfer opportunities to qualified WVWD employees before advertising open positions.

A bo a r d F l i gh t AA 22 70 d ur i n g C OVI D- 19 sta y- at- ho m e o r d er s By Manny B. Sandoval

merican Airlines flight 2270 - Tampa, FL to Dallas, TX is the flight I just boarded, before heading to my destination, Ontario International Airport in the next connecting flight. I understand the airlines are taking precautions and deep cleaning the seats, but I also just finished wiping down the space around me; which is not new. My family and I have been wiping down the seats since we began flying, but one thing we did notice is that our wipes are no longer dirty after wiping the space down...which is alarming. Did they not clean airplanes before, after each flight? However, I just spent 3 days in Tampa Bay...yes, during the Covid-19 craze that has rocked the entire globe. A day or two before the trip, I highly considered cancelling, in order to do my part and protect the elderly, those whom may be underinsured or uninsured; but ultimately decided to board the flight on March 14 in San Diego. With numerous precautions in place, such as continuously washing hands, avoiding touching eyes, mouth and nose, utilizing hand wipes and hand sanitizer...the

stress was still at an all time high. It’s evident that we truly do not realize how often we rub our eyes, touch our nose and mouth, until it’s recommended that we do not. Each time anyone sneezes or coughs, I find myself dodging, ducking, running, etc. When I purchased my plane tickets two months ago the seats were basically full; leaving me to sit in between two strangers on the ride to our destination. But, in the day of Covid-19, I ended up having the entire row to myself. The airplane held around 200 passengers, but only about 50-55 passengers boarded the plane. While in Florida I visited the Busch Gardens Amusement Park, boarded a dinner cruise on a yacht and ate at Gator Docs and Datz Delicatessen. At the amusement park, they did their diligence with wiping down the rollercoaster with disinfectant after each ride...while we still went and washed our hands after each ride as well. At the dinner cruise on the water, surprisingly they kept operations at buffet style...I became nervous. I held the utensils with a napkin and washed my hands after I served myself. The restaurants and many of the shops also did their part, requiring

customers to wash their hands or utilize a hand wipe before entering the space. In regards to our Air Bnb that was rented, as soon as we entered, we went Clorox wipe crazy and wiped everything down; which is also something we have been doing for years to ensure our space is rid of as many germs as possible. While the trip was an experience...I surly did not have the opportunity to enjoy all of the offerings Florida possesses. The MLB spring training was cancelled, the aquarium closed, the space museum closed and those are just a few of the closures. Overall, the trip went smooth. I’m also happy that when we landed and I got off the airplane my neck didn’t hurt like it did when I landed in Las Vegas two weeks ago, due to stress. Once I get home, I promise to self quarantine. My recommendation, stay home. It contradicts the choice I made, but if I can go back in time...I would have postponed to have the ability to fully enjoy my trip during a less stressful time. Be safe everyone. Side note: Florida is also out of water bottles.

Aguilar announces over $13 million for Inland Empire Coronavirus response

n April 2, Congressman Pete Aguilar announced that five Inland Empire cities and the County of San Bernardino received a total of $13,133,589 in federal grant funding to begin responding to the financial crisis created by the spread of coronavirus. The new funding comes in the form of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program funds, which allow city and county governments to invest in programs to support economic growth, spur job creation, address homelessness and provide affordable housing. These funds were made available by the CARES Act, the third fed-

eral coronavirus response bill, which Congressman Aguilar helped pass on March 27, 2020. The breakdown of funding is as follows: County of San Bernardino: $6,560,515 City of $3,023,526

San

Bernardino:

City of Fontana: $1,854,673 City of Rialto: $714,324 City of Rancho Cucamonga: $604,816 City of Upland: $375,735 “These funds empower our com-

munities to mitigate the economic damage COVID-19 is causing. From support for affordable housing programs to direct investment in economic recovery, the CARES Act provides Inland Empire residents with the resources they need to make it through this crisis. I was proud to support this legislation, and I’ll continue fighting for more federal resources for our community,” said Aguilar.

“In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic we must continue to provide essential services, and this includes investing in affordable housing for our vulnerable population. I appreciate Congressman Aguilar’s leadership on this critical issue,” said San Bernardino County Supervisor Dawn Rowe.

“Investing in our economy now during the COVID-19 pandemic is essential to our recovery. The Community Development Block Grant and Emergency Shelter Grant are vital streams of investment to support our local economic growth, community revitalization and affordable housing,” said San Bernardino County

“We expect that the loss of revenue related to the COVID 19 pandemic will have a severe impact on the financial health and wellbeing of the City of San Bernardino and its residents. We are grateful that Federal Stimulus Funding has been made available to help soften the impact and provide needed resources to the com-

Board of Supervisors Chairman Curt Hagman.

munity we serve during this time and into the near future,” said San Bernardino City Manager Teri Ledoux. “We are experiencing unprecedented times, with a period of uncertainty to follow, the Coronavirus Aid Package that Congress approved will provide our community with a crucial lifeline to keep the economy moving. We are grateful for the leadership of the federal administration and their willingness to act quickly to ease the hardships,” said Fontana Mayor Acquanetta Warren. “This is fantastic, and much needed for our first responders. Its critical to meet the needs of our community,” commented Rialto Mayor Deborah Robertson.

San Bernardino County creates Nursing Facilities Task Force

he County Department of Public Health has established a multiagency Nursing Facilities Task Force aimed at mitigating the spread of COVID-19 among the county’s most vulnerable residents, and the Acting County Health Officer has issued an order requiring nursing facilities to take multiple steps to protect their elderly and healthcompromised clients. There are 171 state-licensed nursing facilities in San Bernardino County caring for at least 6,600 of the county’s most at-risk residents. Gov. Gavin Newsom on Saturday identified San Bernardino County as one of four nursing home “hotspots” in the state.

“The County is dedicating every resource we can to fighting the spread of COVID-19,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Curt Hagman. “This task force will focus on supporting our senior living facilities in their efforts to preserve the safety of their residents.” Work on forming the task force began early last week after a COVID-19 outbreak occurred at Cedar Mountain Post-Acute Rehabilitation in Yucaipa. Seventyfive residents and staff at the facility have tested positive and five residents have died of causes related to COVID-19. Later in the week, an outbreak was detected at the Reche Canyon Rehabilitation & Health Care Center in Colton,

with eight residents and seven staff testing positive and one resident succumbing to the disease to date.

ease Control, Inland Empire Health Plan, and other emergency management and hospital stakeholders.

“The County of San Bernardino is moving quickly to get a handle on the spread of COVID-19 in nursing homes. This task force will be an integral component of the County’s ability to protect our vulnerable senior population,” said Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe. Both the Yucaipa and Colton facilities are located in her district.

“The task force will proactively identify, map, and assess readiness for COVID-19 at nursing facilities throughout the county with the intent of identifying strategic sites that may act as COVID-19-positive sites to further mitigate spread among our most-vulnerable residents,” said County Public Health Director Trudy Raymundo.

The County Nursing Facilities Task Force includes County Public Health and other County agencies, the California Department of Public Health, the Centers for Dis-

Also, Acting County Public Health Officer Dr. Erin Gustafson today issued an order requiring nursing facilities to employ any means necessary to cease the use of staff members who also work at other nursing facilities. The order also requires nursing home staff to wear protective gear to prevent them from spreading illness to residents, requires staff members to monitor their temperatures, and forbids them from entering facilities if they have symptoms of any contagious illness. The order can be viewed by clicking here. “Without appropriate precautions and procedures, nursing homes can create a tragically ideal environment for the spread of viruses among those who are most susceptible to symptoms and complications,” Gustafson said. As an immediate response to the Reche Canyon outbreak, County

Public Health launched an aggressive testing campaign at the Colton facility and secured assistance from the State Department of Public Health, which regulates nursing facilities. The Yucaipa and Colton facilities are not affiliated. This week, County Public Health will provide testing supplies and staff assistance to other facilities in the county affiliated with Cedar Mountain to aid in the testing of symptomatic residents and staff. The County is also assisting the City of Yucaipa in its plans to conduct a community testing event in the city this week. San Bernardino County has 373 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and the deaths of 13 county residents ranging in age from 42 to 95 have been associated with the disease. Various appropriate County departments and agencies have been working together since Jan. 25 to protect the community from the COVID-19 pandemic. For information about the coronavirus crisis, visit the County’s coronavirus website at sbcovid19.com. New information and resources are updated daily. The public can also contact the COVID-19 hotline from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday at (909) 387-3911, or email the County at coronavirus@dph.sbcounty.gov.

Another element that has halted donors from giving blood is the concern of social distancing, an order issued by California Governor Gavin Newsom the week of March 16. “Blood donation sites are as safe as can be for prospective donors.

All prospective donors should be free of infections or illness, weigh at least 115 pounds, and not be at risk for AIDS or hepatitis. Donors receive a free mini-physical as part of the donation process. Donating blood takes about an hour, yet gives someone a lifetime,” concluded Escalante. Although appointments are encouraged at this time, walk-ins are available. For more information, visit www.LStream.org.

Virtual urgent care visits are being encouraged as an initial care option for anyone who would like to discuss symptoms characteristic of COVID-19 with a health care professional. As ambulatory and acute care facilities across the country experience an increase in the number of patients with COVID-19 symptoms, virtual health care visits can help providers meet demand while reducing potential transmission of the coronavirus. The service is a safe and convenient way for people to speak with a medical professional for advice without needing to visit a physical care location.

There are six Dignity Health hospitals in Southern California, including: Community Hospital of San Bernardino and St. Bernardine Medical Center in the Inland Empire, as well as California Hospital Medical Center in downtown Los Angeles, Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center, Northridge Hospital Medical Center and St. Mary Medical Center in Long Beach. To use the service, people can simply visit dignityhealth.org/virtualcareanywhere, download the Virtual Care Anywhere app in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, or call 855-356-8053 and use the coupon code COVID19. The service has a fee of $35 per visit, and the fee will be waived for any patient who thinks they may be experiencing COVID-19 symptoms. After requesting a vir-

tual care visit, a provider will contact the patient once they are available, typically within 15-30 minutes, although high demand may result in longer wait times. The service is on-demand and does not accept appointments. “Virtual urgent care visits are one way we will help patients with COVID-19 symptoms assess their options for treatment or testing,” said Julie J. Sprengel, Southwest Division President. “Virtual visits allow for timely care delivery without putting other patients or our clinicians at risk for contracting the virus. And while it’s not intended to replace in-person care visits, it will help reduce patient volumes at care sites, so we can serve those who need care the most.” We know this can be a scary time for our communities, and we want to ensure the public receives

Nicholas Testa, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Dignity Health Southwest Division is available for media interviews surrounding the new Virtual urgent care program and COVID-19.
