Mason County, operating with a comprehensive partnership including the community, tribes, health care, first responders, city, and county leadership, continues to meet or exceed the criteria needed to reopen our local economy and support medical systems. Mason County's population estimate is 66,768 (census.gov, 5/5/2020). As a responsible governing body, Mason County is seeking this variance to prevent collapse or further unnecessary and preventable second and third order of effects to the population and economy. It should be noted that our primary focus is always keeping the community safe while moving into Phase 3 Washington's Phased Approach. Governor Inslee, in collaboration with local elected officials, the Department of Health, and local health jurisdictions, has established a data-driven approach to reopening businesses and modifying physical distancing measures while minimizing the health impacts of COVID-19. This approach reduces the risk of COVID-19 to Washington's most vulnerable populations and preserves capacity in our healthcare system, while opening businesses safely. The plan involves assessing COVID-19 activity in the state along with healthcare system readiness and our state's ability to perform extensive testing, isolate and manage cases, quarantine their contacts, and protect high risk populations. The state will implement a phased approach to reopening businesses and modifying physical distancing measures when disease activity is adequately suppressed, and readiness is achieved in five key areas: healthcare system readiness, testing, case and contact investigations, and protecting high-risk populations.

Kitsap County has 2 locations for testing available to our North Mason residents for convenience and working with our Hospital District 2 partners. All the above locations for testing are available to low-income, no insurance, or underserved populations. Testing sites have a triage phone line available to call and set up testing times and dates. 3. Median number of days from onset of symptoms to specimen collection. a. Since moving to Phase 2 we have had 3 cases, one asymptomatic close contact family case b. Median numbers not calculated for low response numbers 4. During the period of For each of the weeks you have been in Phase 2, report the total number of COVID-19 tests reported for the county, the number of negative and number of positive test results, percent positive, and what 50 times the number of positive tests would be. In addition, report the percent positive of all tests for the overall time period. The ideal target is to perform about 50 tests per case and have a percent positivity no more than 2%. If the target is not being met, what seems to be the cause(s) and what are you doing to help address that? a. Week 1 (5/15-5/21):206 tests, 205 negative tests, 1 positive tests, .4% positive, Week 2 (5/21-2/27): 256 tests, 255 negative tests, 2 positive tests, .7% positive Week 3 (5/28-6/3): 218 tests, 217 negative tests, 1 positive test, .4% positive b. Sum total: 4positive tests/680#of tests= .5 percent positive. 5. Report or update the local health jurisdiction's resources to perform case investigations and contact tracing using statewide standardized COVID-19 case and contact investigation protocols. a. Mason County Department of Community Services, Public Health and Human Services Division maintains a highly trained communicable disease staff with experience in contacts investigations. L With Mason County's population at 66,768 we have established 10 FTE's are required to conduct efficient contact tracing investigations. MCPH currently has 17 public health staff and 2 citizen volunteers, all trained in the Incident Command System, outbreak investigations and contact investigations. This is a total of 15.2 FTE's. This meets the guidelines of 15 investigators/100,000 population. No gaps identified for steady state operations. ii. Outbreak Considerations 1. A COVID-19 outbreak will be handled just as we would handle any infectious disease outbreak in these settings. Mason County Public Health (MCPH) staff will quickly and efficiently respond. Following all DOH and DSHS guidelines we will direct the outbreak response and investigation. 2. To date Mason County has experienced one (1) COVID-19 outbreak in a workplace setting of four(4) employee cases and one (1) contact case. Mason County Public health was able to contact all cases and conduct contact tracing investigation efficiently without diminishing or exceeding our capabilities. All within Phase 1. 3. With the help of our local Department of Emergency Management, we will ensure they have adequate PPE and testing supplies throughout the outbreak. Mason General Hospital has the testing capacity to serve our testing needs in the event of an outbreak in a local facility or workplace. MCPH currently has 17 public health staff and 2 citizen volunteers, all trained in the Incident Command System, outbreak investigations and contact investigations. This is a total of 15.2 FTE's. This meets the guidelines of 15 investigatorsj100,000 population. 4. At the peak in March, Mason County did not exceed the capacity of the first line series of investigators. 100 percent of positive cases are investigated within 24 hours. Most case investigations are completed within 12 hours. Pop 66,768= 10 FTE investigator(15/100,000 pop) 4- Public Health Nurses 9-trained community health and EH Specialists 4-trained administration staff 2-trained volunteers Tota 119= 15.2 FTE No further training scheduled at this time Mason County 1 workplace outbreak(4 employees and 1 contact case)case investigation complete <24 hours Reliance on DOH Resources + Per guidance from Secretary of Health John Wiesman, should any incident exceed the capacity of local resources, MCPH will contact DOH for an immediate strike team and request additional resources from DOL trained investigators. Ten additional investigators will be moved to Emergency Command where they have access to phones and computers. A MCPH nurse will supervise these additional resources. Mason County also has a partnership with the Squaxin Tribe to provide culturally appropriate case investigation. • Relying on DOH to provide relief for local investigators avoids exhaustion and multiplies effectiveness. • Mason County is currently in negotiation with DOH to supply case investigators and staffing for congregate quarantine/isolation through the use of a Memorandum of Understanding. b. The total number of cases identified over the past two weeks and the percentage of cases reached by phone or in person within 24 hours of receipt of positive lab test report (the ideal target is 90%). 2 patients/ 100% c. The total number of close contacts identified over the past two weeks and the percentage of contacts reached by phone or in person within 48 hours of receipt of positive lab test report on a case (the ideal target is 80%). 8/10 contacted/80% d. For cases, are you currently reaching out to them daily throughout their isolation period via a combination of phone calls and electronic means (e.g., text) to check on their overall status and ability to successfully isolate? Daily contact x8 days/100% e. For contacts, are you currently reaching out to them daily through a combination of phone calls and electronic means(e.g., text)to check on symptom development and their ability to successfully self-quarantine? Daily contact x 8 days/100% f. The department conducts case investigation seven days per week. 6. Facilities used for isolation and quarantine. Motel for<10 persons isolation/quarantine Time period indefinite Food, laundry, provided by Mason County (Jail kitchen and laundry) Paid w/Corona funds Food may also be provided by families and public health for cultural appropriateness Building 10 County Owned Up to 75 beds for either isolation or quarantine County owned —indefinite time period Housing, laundry, food, recreation county provided Security services—private contract addition to county contract Showers+ 2 interior bathrooms 2x Portable toilets and handwash facilities Mountain View Middle School (directly behind Mason General Hospital) 100 Bed Alternative Care Facility (portable) MOU with Shelton Schools—available until school starts Showers, bathrooms in school gym Food, laundry, recreation county provided Community Lifeline Homeless Shelter 30 beds added to capacity specifically for ill homeless (non- corona) On contract with county—will become permanent All services provided by Community Lifeline 7. In-home isolation a. The health department case investigator is asking each positive patient who is isolating at home if they have family or friends that can bring groceries or supplies. If the patient has no help, we access United Way, Meals on Wheels, Agency on Aging, and the local Senior Center to provide emergency boxes of food and supplies. Money is available to pay for rent in order to assist low income cases to stay at home. b. The health department case investigator/staff makes referrals to outside agencies. The agency will let us know when boxes of food/supplies is available and delivered. Money is available to purchase food or foods cards for low income/isolated patients c. Health department case investigator checks in with patient every day—so we know when supplies are low, more food is needed, or medications need delivery. 8. Outbreak investigation (see also section 5. a. ii.) a. Mason County maintains the ability to immediately respond to outbreaks in congregate settings such as long-term care facilities, homeless shelters,jails, and works with Department of Corrections for prison facilities. b. DON is currently conducting screening within skilled nursing facilities for staff and residents. Mason County will assist DOH as needed to provide local contacts and context. c. Per guidance from Secretary of Health John Wiesman, should any incident exceed the capacity of local resources, MCPH will contact DOH for an immediate strike team and request additional resources from DOL trained investigators.Ten additional investigators will be moved to Emergency Command where they have access to phones and computers. A MCPH nurse will supervise these additional resources. Mason County also has a partnership with the Squaxin Tribe to provide culturally appropriate case investigation.An MOU is currently in the approval process that outlines the specific requests. d. Relying on DOH to provide relief for local investigators avoids exhaustion and multiplies effectiveness. 4. Lessons Learned from move to Phase 2 a. Roll out timeline needed better coordination. The notification came out on a Saturday with very short notice. b. DON/state industry specific guidance lagged behind counties moving into Phase 2. Industries began re-opening without guidance. c. Counties should control specific industry specific openings. With the move to Phase 2, clarity was not achieved. Mason County Plan For the move to Phase 3, Mason County will officially move into Phase 3 not earlier than 22 June 2020 or 48 hours after approval from DOH official notification.The Joint Information Center will post the start date and time through standard notification channels. Mason County understands that the state is not producing industry specific guidance for Phase 3 with the exception of pools/spas and sporting events. Guidance from Phase 2 is extended into Phase 3. Mason County seeks a full opening with the exceptions of pools/spas and sporting facilities/ball fields.These areas will be approved upon commission and health officer review and approval. Mason County offices will utilize the Phase 3 Safe Start Plan Template (https://www.governor.wa.gov/sites/defaultlfiles/BusinessTemplate Phase3 1.pdf?'utm medium=email&utm source=govdelivery)Appendix C for opening the county to the public at large with a tentative start date of 22 June, 2020 Hospital Data Input from Mason General Hospital daily Al _ a ■yyrwr4�M..rr .. i 5 Y F.� Y`w1� .rw bM»m �wiy YW�!r f.II�14M M���IrfA1 up.s I ffi c, s .xeew � �nrmd^: tire.-.:.�.�:x:. arrenma,�s+ �o-sacza srsa wary eezm t.aan+*rneww�. s�mo4«+.. �n.w..G,-.�x+.•.ra. c,.�ase�rr..ems+. c>:m..c,�. :...w,�,„ ,.-,....«. d ba < 9!6 t > re mad uQM" WMW6e-H W,—U!M SNIIO 0IMS UOISO Nt 00 We WON 0 Wawuedq atet;u016-14'rM cas S i Epp wairMoO uaw a4g � _. 0t Ot 0• oewm t e,{al lea? -'< t.0.'+stit 4r m01 .� 04 a1(� SL•a 04 syaa,e wet tMtd a,w0,s 4L !► s !6 sYa Yt sasr�rsOtniae] � ? i�� .w,ICVEC4t R" t yryo-p 5o,y,atldny 4 Y a�daa4 00G001 sa0s -st _qt taw,w(�o Y.ati E+tgaaly ;.� taaseH saaak 0�I ttPa4 aY1 6aun0 zso7 RasvvOdA Elo,wO a a�aiag vS`-`---^`_--------`_"-____- -. `-_`.- ------- sr 99 At-ow to 54001 rao axed f. ayes Sp Iea.q..-• aau Mwa twxl-0-acat asap.® et4ead moot sad sas-pasau6t,p 14-0.t0 ated 4vA03 uOsew q0+aari,axt unxgama,aamad] syaar Ort iwM aYi 6uuap 414ead tM600 t tad 1au0 y=nt4t.arat 5—t,se Al,,M 11e p..ot sau4ap YI}eaN y tO wawt-d.0 441 60 u^P Y6�Yt LL frH 6u,e"r old0a4 000,001'ad sasea 6l•OJAOa 0esou6etr 4.-10 stet aYl ma+x sYdu6 w4l ,t 82 amp s4"m oxu jcq d ryi buunp eare0 61-CIA03 PasYUfie7P 4M"U 10 WS wni b11x4Yye•sesdp 6t•O1M10� s+,iw�:<ax e tsatag td w4as a azot s1 aoM W ze ata0 AllRtl?t1 3SV351tf r Etlu¢sy astawp 4t-WAV3 .a.aaeo*rb +4xnt a+.O.�J H+t�+s+u•+a awss,aMrar6 wrww�y •=++.nwF �,�s�..r.s a�,ra,.�r�s -r-,rw*.asasax�as cY+r.w.E�ss wl bE�.'S�rMM�lR Ytr rs�1#tc7.e!.sY aR.1 fl �.«� . rs�g4tda4P4M :� ..-..__..._ ( %CO %9'f1 WO %"I %OV _ �x .a �i .warti rp t y; n 01 w.waaa0ssa O4 wnsre y.,wY,bp M+WY+�l nw.4 0.aroaw eow)i,Cwq r...,s.P.mr 3 Doi!..._ •9 �;n,�., �i cti..� ar.: r.,...aar. �c�,..w .s c.... w. 41 .

Mason County as well has created a strong, coordinated approach to combating the novel coronavirus.The initial "Stay Home,Stay Safe" proclamation along with the hard work of our area command, has helped us prepare our community for responding to the pandemic. Since Mason County was allowed to move forward to Phase 2 on May 23rd, we have been carefully monitoring for any additional spikes in cases. Mason had a single cluster of cases since that time, which was quickly evaluated, case and contacts were investigated, and the State's outbreak response team was notified.We are continuing to see low levels of community transmission which has remained below the required rate of transmission recommended to move to Phase 3.As outlined in the variance request,we have been able to prepare our community and we feel that our healthcare system, case and contact investigations and isolation and quarantine availability are well prepared for additional cases that may arise. Based on this success, I am proud to support a proposed Phase 3 variance on June 22"d By setting a date for progression, we will be able to prepare our community through outreach and education. I recognize that relaxing social distancing rules and expanding businesses could pose a threat to increase the spread of this virus in our area,and that we may be potentially susceptible to additional spikes in cases. I believe that continuing to encourage social distancing, appropriate hygiene practices and broad use of masking is required to maintain our low incidence rate.We will be relying on the guidance for business openings as defined by the state.As we continue to cautiously restart our economy, we will evaluate and act quickly to contain additional outbreaks. If we can move forward with a Phase 3 variance,we will continue to monitor the situation. Mason County is prepared to reevaluate, potentially further restrict services and take a step back to Phase 2 if needed. I appreciate the excellent work of our Board of County Commissioners,the Mason County Board of Health,the Public Health Department, and our health system for allowing us to have this discussion. Sincerely, Daniel Stein, M.D., Mason County Health Officer Mason Health Mason General Hospital • Mason Clinic 20 May 2020 Mason Health certifies the following: 1.

I'll need to have you do another letter based on the following guidance. I can pull some of this from Wa Health if that helps. I'll update metrics just prior to submission. Each local hospital must submit a dated letter explicitly certifying each of the following or alternatively, if a county's hospitals are all reporting into WA HEALTH, the local health department can use that information to report on the following elements, except for element"e"below which would require an email confirmation from the hospital. If the county does not have a hospital,that local health jurisdiction must obtain the same documentation from the hospitals)that serve the majority of the county's residents: a. The percent of licensed beds occupied by patients(i.e., hospital census relative to licensed beds). b. The percent of licensed beds occupied by suspected and confirmed covid-19 cases (ideal target is<10%). c. That the hospital is reporting,and will continue to report daily, including on weekends, all data requested by the Washington State Department of Health into WA HEALTH, and for how many days in the last 2 weeks they did report into WA HEALTH. d. The hospital has at least a 14-day supply on-hand for all of the following PPE, including N95 respirators, surgical masks,face shields,gloves,and gowns. e. Reaffirm that if or when the hospital is using PPE conservation strategies, that no staff person is wearing any one N95 respirator or surgical mask for longer than one shift, and that they are following PPE guidance on reuse or extended use in this guidance:https://wvi-w.doh.wa.pov/Portals/1/Documents/1600/coronavirus/PPE- Reuse. f.
