\u201cThe social distancing measures that we have put into place have been working,\u201d said Dean Kelaita, MD, Calaveras County Health Officer. \u201cPeople staying home, washing their hands, avoiding group gatherings, and wearing face coverings, have made an impact in keeping our numbers low. These activities will also reduce the risk of the hospital system from becoming overwhelmed with sick patients all at the same time.\u201d Calaveras Public Health advises the public to continue these practices to keep Calaveras safe.<\/p>\n

Calaveras Public Health staff will continue the investigation to determine any possible persons who may have had close personal contact with the newly identified positive individual, including any friends or family members, to assess and monitor them for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 illness. Close personal contacts identified during this investigation will be placed under strict quarantine.<\/p>\n
