NY Allowing High-risk High School Sports \u2013 Released Friday<\/strong>: As a region, the local health departments of the Finger Lakes (including Monroe, Ontario, Wayne, Livingston, Genesee, Orleans, Wyoming, Seneca and Yates counties) are in support of re-opening high-risk sports but want to make sure it\u2019s done safely and uniformly. As a region, we will be discussing and drafting additional guidance with our school partners to ensure a consistent, regional approach. We are planning to provide that guidance early next week.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vaccine Information<\/strong>:
At this time all appointments are full, however we encourage you to keep monitoring in case people have canceled. People are encouraged to cancel their appointment if they are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, the flu or a cold; if they have been placed on mandatory quarantine because they are identified as a close contact to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19; or they can\u2019t make the appointment for any other reason. Canceling the appointment as soon as you are aware you can\u2019t make it will
open up a new appointment for someone else. Please make sure you cancel using the information on your confirmation sheet or by calling the provider. The health departments cannot cancel appointments for other providers.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To check for vaccination clinics in Genesee and Orleans Counties please go to<\/em>: http:\/\/bit.ly\/39bfElNGOHealthVaccine<\/a>
We are currently scheduling Point of Dispensing (POD) mass vaccination clinics for Priority Groups 1A and 1B. To check your eligibility to either of these groups go to:
https:\/\/covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov\/phased-distribution-vaccine#phase-1a—phase1b <\/a>Links for pre-registration are updated on a week to week basis based on vaccine availability. If appointments become full, please check the state vaccine web page:
https:\/\/covid19vaccine.health.ny.gov<\/a>\/ or the GO Health Vaccine web page:
http:\/\/bit.ly\/39bfElNGOHealthVaccine <\/a>or check with your primary care provider or pharmacy.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to high traffic volume, the registration links may temporarily become unavailable. Please continue to try again if experiencing any errors with registration. The process of getting the vaccine out to priority groups and eventually the general public is going to take quite some time.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more information about the vaccine and access for those who are 65 and older who do NOT have internet access, please contact your respective Office for the Aging (OFA). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Genesee OFA please call 585-813-2457 for COVID-19 Vaccine assistance between 9:00 a.m. \u2013 4:00 p.m. and leave a message if you get voicemail and someone will return the call. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Orleans OFA please call 585-589-3191 between 9:30 a.m. \u2013 4:30 p.m. and leave a message if you get voicemail and someone will return the call. The OFA offices can only assist with the clinic links as they are available. The system may experience slowdowns and crashing due to high volume. Please be patient and try again later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quarantine and Isolation Update<\/strong>:
New guidance for those on mandatory and precautionary quarantine as long as you have no symptoms: for community members, travelers and healthcare personnel (with exceptions):
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consistent with recent CDC guidance, quarantine for individuals exposed to COVID-19 can end after ten days without a testing requirement if no symptoms have been reported during the quarantine period.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

o Individuals must continue daily symptom monitoring through Day 14;
o Individuals must be counseled to continue strict adherence to all recommended non-pharmaceutical interventions, including hand hygiene and the use of face-coverings, through Day 14.
o Individuals must be advised that if any symptoms develop, they should immediately self-isolate and contact the local public health authority or their healthcare provider to report this change in clinical status and determine if they should seek testing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who work as healthcare professionals at Nursing Homes, Adult Care Facilities, certified as Enhanced Assisted Living Residences (EALR) or licensed as Assisted Living Programs (ALP):
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

o Individuals can be released from quarantine after 10 days of being symptom free, however they are still furloughed (not able to report for work) for the full 14 days.
o Individuals will have to continue to self-monitor the entire 14 days. Individuals must be counseled to continue strict adherence to all recommended non-pharmaceutical interventions, including hand
hygiene and the use of face-covering, through Day 14.
o Individuals must be advised that if any symptoms develop, they should immediately self-isolate and contact their supervisor.
These quarantine requirements are also applicable to travelers who are not essential workers and\/or who did not complete the testing requirements described in Executive Order 205.2.
o If you believe you are a contact or have been notified you are a contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19, it may take a few days for contact tracers to initially contact you due to the volume of contacts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please self-quarantine, even if you are feeling fine. Stay away
from other household members, use separate bathroom facilities (or sanitize after each use), have meals delivered. If you start to feel ill, contact your primary care provider and let them know you were exposed to or tested positive for COVID-19.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

o If you are being tested for COVID-19 it is important that you self-quarantine until you get your test results whether you have symptoms or not. If you are symptomatic, meaning you are coughing, have a fever or other symptoms, self-quarantine even if you are an essential worker until
you get your results back, if you have COVID-19 you may be spreading it! That means to stay home and limit contact with other people, even in your household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
