NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED TO MONO COUNTY TO SUPPORT COVID-19 TESTING CAPACITY Fifty OptumServe Testing Sites in California to Receive Additional Support

This winter season, enjoy the Eastern Sierra safely and responsibly. LADWPEasternSierra.com

January 09, 2022 – On January 7, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom activated the California National Guard to support local communities in their response to the escalating demand for COVID-19 (Coronavirus) testing. Mono County was assigned National Guard members who will provide increased capacity at the Sierra Star Clubhouse (2001 Sierra Star Pkwy.) OptumServe testing site in Mammoth Lakes. “California has led the country’s fight against COVID-19, implementing first-in-thenation public health measures that have helped save tens of thousands of lives,” said Governor Newsom. “We continue to support communities in their response to COVID by bolstering testing capacity.” Activation of the National Guard comes as the Omicron variant continues to spread rapidly across the globe, accounting for at least 80% of COVID-19 cases in California. The National Guard plan to deploy over 200 California National Guard members across 50 OptumServe sites throughout California. National Guard members will function as interim clinical staff while permanent staff are hired, greatly enhancing capacity for walkins, while assisting with crowd control and back-filling for staff absences – all in an effort to increase testing capacity. Mammoth Hospital remains in a “Green” status; however, the demand for testing has created a bottleneck in the Emergency Department and clinics for other patients trying to obtain services for various other conditions. Mammoth Hospital encourages residents and visitors to utilize OptumServe and Mono County Public Health clinics for COVID-19 testing, and reminds exposed and/or symptomatic individuals to isolate until symptoms are resolved regardless of the ability to test. Both OptumServe and Mono County Public Health provide COVID-19 testing clinics in Mono County (pending weather-related issues). OptumServe offers testing most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 11am – 7pm in Mammoth Lakes at the Sierra Star Golf Course (2001 Sierra Star Pkwy.). Testing staff typically take lunch between 3-4pm. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged for both OptumServe and Mono County Public Health testing clinics. Mono County Public Health will be adding pop-up testing clinics as additional resources become available. To help slow the spread of COVID-19, Californians are encouraged to get vaccinated, get boosted, wear a mask indoors and get tested if sick. The Mono County COVID-19 testing schedule for January can be accessed here: https://coronavirus.monocounty.ca.gov/pages/health. OptumServe Pre-Registration: https://lhi.care/covidtesting.

Mono County Board of Supervisors Elects 2022 Chair Supervisor Jennifer Kreitz Recognized for Service as 2021 Chair

MONO COUNTY, Calif. (JANUARY 6, 2022) – On Tuesday, the Mono County Board of Supervisors elected Supervisor Bob Gardner (District 3) to serve as 2022 Chair, taking the reins from Supervisor Jennifer Kreitz (District 1), who was recognized for her service during an extremely challenging year. Chair Gardner immediately assumed the role, which will run through the year. “I am honored to have been elected by my colleagues to serve in this capacity, and am optimistic about the year ahead,” stated Chair Gardner. “It has been a challenging couple of years, and I remain dedicated to the health and safety of our residents and visitors, and committed to aggressively pursuing the county’s priorities.” Supervisor Rhonda Duggan (District 2) was elected to serve as 2022 Vice Chair, and Supervisor John Peters (District 4) was elected to serve as 2022 Chair Pro-Tem. The Board of Supervisors also appointed themselves to various Boards, Commissions, and Committees for 2022.

January 08, 2022 – Effective Monday, January 10, 2022, Dr. Caryn K. Slack, Mono County Local Health Officer, has ordered the temporary closure of in-person instruction and indoor activities within the Mammoth Unified School District’s (MUSD) Mammoth High School, Mammoth Middle School, Mammoth Elementary School, Sierra High School, Husky Club, Mono County Office of Education’s Inclusive Preschool on the campus of Mammoth Elementary School, and Inyo-Mono Advocates for Community Action Mammoth Head Start Preschool. This closure is in response to a dramatic increase in COVID-19 (Coronavirus) cases, and the resulting impacts on staffing and resources upon local schools. MUSD facilities will be closed for in-person instruction and indoor activities beginning at 12:01am on Monday, January 10, 2022, and may re-open for in-person instruction and indoor activities as of 11:59 pm on January 28, 2022. This Order does not apply to school-related activities that are conducted outdoors. “This Order is intended to reduce the likelihood of exposure to COVID-19 in the schools, thereby slowing the spread of COVID-19 in the community and throughout the County,” stated Dr. Slack. “We are experiencing an unprecedented number of cases in Mono County, and with the high volume of students and staff who have been exposed to or infected with COVID-19, and the lack of staff now available to ensure compliance with California Department of Public Health (CDPH) protocol for safe schools, including the testing and monitoring of individuals under modified quarantine, make it unsafe for the school to remain open at this time.” CDPH issued Public Health Guidance for K-12 Schools in California for the 202122 school year, on the foundational principle that all students must have access to safe and full in-person instruction and to as much instructional time as possible. At present, approximately 23% of students and 19% of staff are unable to be physically present within MUSD schools due to illness or quarantine. This drastic shortage of staff restricts the ability of MUSD to ensure compliance with CDPH guidelines. Mono County and MUSD consulted with CDPH on this closure. For those who need to test, both OptumServe and Mono County Public Health provide COVID-19 testing clinics in Mono County (pending weather-related issues). OptumServe offers testing most Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 11am – 7pm in Mammoth Lakes. Mono County Public Health offers testing in other locations throughout the county at various times throughout the week. While both OptumServe and Mono County Public Health accept walk-ins at their COVID-19 testing clinics, pre-registration is strongly encouraged as walk-ins will only be accommodated pending resource availability. Mono County Public Health will be adding pop-up testing clinics as additional resources become available. The COVID-19 testing schedule for January can be accessed here: https://coronavirus.monocounty.ca.gov/pages/health. ###
