Meeting May 26

Contexts we are working in:

Health & safety: Is another committee. They will be coming up with safety measures based on different scenarios. Safety measures depend on what risk level we are on: low, medium, high

low (on campus); medium (blended); high (online)

Employee relations

Started at schedules and grouping because that will determine many aspects:

Social distancing: Could include capsules....keeping pods together and not mixed with other groups. This makes tracing and limiting easier.

Extended/remote:

July 22 meeting

Expanding activities: Local government has an important role to play. Number of cases in a community may not reflect the state's trend. If there is resurgance, we may have to go back to shelter in place. 2. Infrastructure and tools for tracing: Capacity for trace and isolate as cases emerges. People with confirmed cases, must isolate for 14 days. Asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic testing. Serological testing- Test people's blood. It may be able to check for immunity. Testing, tracing and isolating must be done in conjunction with other measures: proper handwashing, protective gear, social distancing, etc. Testing, tracing and isolatio...
