<\/p>\nSonora, CA…From the Tuolumne Sheriff’s Office…”On Wednesday, we were notified one of our staff members in the custody facility tested positive for COVID-19. In response to the positive case, we are working closely with public health while conducting containment measures and mandatory testing for all inmate and staff within our facility. Additional resources from UCSF are on-site today to expedite the testing process. The purpose of testing is to identify any other potential cases or exposures. All exposures in congregate areas of our facility require containment and quarantine measures. These measures include adjusting distribution of meals, medications, appointments, and court appearance, all which have been pre-planned for.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Our primary concern is the safety of all people inside our custody facility. All COVID-19 protocols continue to be in place in accordance with the health officer\u2019s orders to include pre-screening, sanitation, face coverings, designated quarantine areas, and social distancing. All confirmed cases and exposures will be subject to the health officer\u2019s track and trace protocol.<\/p>\n
At this time, we have no further information and will know more once we receive test results.”<\/p>\n
Sincerely,
\nSheriff Bill Pooley
