From YouTube: Board of Health Meeting June 13, 2022
A
Okay,
well,
we
don't
have
lander
yet,
but
we
do
have
a
quorum.
A
No
problem,
then,
we
have
a
quorum
and,
let's
see
the
regular
boulder
regular
meeting
of
the
boulder
county
board
of
health
has
been
called
the
order.
Discretion
of
boulder
county
public
health
executive
director,
camille
rodriguez
notice
of
this
meeting
was
posted
at
the
board
of
health's
website,
as
required
by
law
and
included
the
conference
phone
number
and
conference
id
so
that
members
of
the
public
can
participate
in
the
meeting.
We
are
still
meeting
virtually
during
the
covert
19
pandemic,
and
this
is
meeting
is
being
held
via
webinar
as
authorized
by
our
board
of
health
bylaws.
A
So
I
will
we
will
just
kind
of
follow
the
procedure
that
we've
had
here
for
the
last
several
months
where,
due
to
the
volume
of
staff
presentation,
we'll
have
staff
be
introduced
as
they
are
presenting,
and
so
I
guess
do
we
have
people
logged
in
for
a
public
comment,
thomas
or
jordan.
E
F
Okay,
great,
thank
you.
I
I'm
confused,
though,
why
are
you
still
meeting
virtually
when
we
have
no
emergency.
A
F
Okay,
well,
I
would
love
to
see
you
get
back
to
normal.
I
think
this
is
a
whole
lot
of
work
for
nothing,
but
I
am
a
nurse.
I
am
a
former
school
nurse,
I'm
a
public
health
nurse.
I
am
a
pediatric
nurse
practitioner,
so
I
do
speak
with
a
little
bit
of
experience
here
and
I
do
not
understand
how
you
can
even
consider
giving
millions
of
doses
of
covid
for
zero
to
five-year-olds
when
it
really
hasn't
even
been
authorized
yet
by
the
fda.
F
F
It's
most
of
the
children,
the
zero
to
five-year-old
that
you're
going
to
be
talking
about
they've
already
had
it.
They
had
it
way
back
when
in
february,
and
it's
been
shown
that
they've
had
it.
So
why
would
you
want
to
waste
all
this
time
and
money
on
vaccinating
them
again?
F
I
don't
understand
what
the
rush
is
to
vaccinate
the
zero
to
five
year
olds.
Anyway,
they
are
not
at
risk
of
dying
at
all.
They
probably
have
already
had
it.
It
makes
no
sense
for
most
children
to
have
this
vaccine,
particularly
when
we're
talking
now
about
variants
omicron,
we,
the
the
vaccine,
was
made
originally
for
the
wuhan
original
virus.
F
Well,
we
don't
even
deal
with
that
anymore,
and
we
know
that
so
many
people
who
have
been
vaccinated
have
ended
up
with
a
vaccine
or
I'm
sorry,
have
ended
up
with
the
actual
disease
from
parents,
teachers,
everything
I
would
urge
you
to
wait
for
a
whole
lot
more
information
from
the
feds
from
your
congress,
who
is
also
asking
the
same
questions
before
ever
giving
this
unapproved
vaccine.
I
think
you
will
be
open
to
lawsuits.
F
There
are
too
many
terrible
things
that
are
happening.
Heart
problems,
it's
just
not
good,
there's,
no
long-term
studies.
Yet
please
wait
before
you
ever
mandate,
this
disease.
Why?
It's
better!
I
don't
know
so
I
would
thank
you
for
listening
to
me,
but
this
is
not
in
the
books
at
this
point
in
time.
I
think
most
parents
very
few
will
get
it.
E
E
G
G
G
G
I
hope
you
will
ask
the
parents
and
explain
to
them
the
risk
benefit
and
have
them
sign
off
on
an
experimental
drug,
the
long-term
effects
of
which
we
do
not
know
and
has
very,
very
little
benefit
to
these
young
people
do
not
experiment
around
children.
Do
it
on
us
older
folks,
not
not
our
children.
H
Hello,
yes,
at
its
meeting,
the
board
of
health
discussed
some
questionable
policies,
including
planning
for
the
cope
vaccine,
rollout
for
zero
to
four-year-olds
back-to-school
booster
shots
for
older
children
and
focus
groups
to
combat
covet
vaccine
hesitancy
with
a
goal
of
persuading
parents
of
young
children,
especially
latinos,
to
accept
coveted
vaccines.
H
This
last
policy
uses
taxpayer
dollars
to
target
parents
to
try
to
override
their
natural
best
judgment.
The
presumption
is
that
government
knows
best
when,
in
fact,
parents
who
are
reluctant
to
give
these
products
to
their
children
may
have
very
good
reasons
such
as
one
covid
poses
very
little
risk
to
children.
H
Two,
their
children
may
already
have
natural
immunity
to
covid
the
cdc's
own
data
show
the
large
majority
of
u.s
children
have
already
developed
some
form
of
natural
immunity.
Three,
the
coveted
vaccines
are
ineffective
for
children.
Visor
clinical
trial
data
failed
to
meet
even
the
low
standard
of
fifty
percent
effectiveness
for
zero
to
four
year
olds.
After
two
doses
and
now
they're
applying
for
a
three
dose
eua
modernist
trial
data
showed
only
37
percent
efficacy
for
children.
Two
to
five.
H
H
The
cdc's
answer
is
to
give
them
a
booster,
but
isn't
it
better
for
children
to
rely
on
their
natural
immune
system
rather
than
being
set
on
a
path
where
they
will
need
potentially
dozens
of
booster
shots
over
the
course
of
their
lifetimes,
each
with
a
non-negligible
risk
of
serious
side
effects,
and
that's
reason,
four:
why
parents
are
wary
of
coveted
vaccines?
Children
and
teenagers
have
suffered
vaccine
injuries,
ranging
from
myocarditis
to
neurological
issues
to
menstrual
irregularities.
H
Many
pediatricians
who
are
observing
these
injuries
in
their
practice
are
intimidated,
but
starting
to
speak
up.
For
example,
dr
kirk
milhoen
quote
for
many
kids,
it's
all
risk
and
no
benefit.
What
are
we
doing?
Dr
michelle
perro
quote.
Clearly,
these
vaccines
are
dangerous
for
kids,
the
data
is
irrefutable,
and
yet
we've
proceeded
dr
rennie
moon
quote.
The
lack
of
regard
for
safety
is
highly
unethical.
H
I
personally
put
it
into
the
arena
of
crimes
against
humanity.
Unquote.
Last
wednesday,
18
members
of
congress
even
got
involved
in
this
issue.
They
wrote
a
letter
to
the
fda,
asking
them
to
justify
why
they
are
pushing
ahead
with
mrna
shots
for
kids
in
the
face
of
their
significant
adverse
effects,
combined
with
low
or
even
negative
efficacy.
H
I
I
If
this
is
the
intent
of
these
groups,
then
the
county
will
be
in
violation
of
federal
and
international
law.
Even
if
the
state
provides
the
funding
for
this
program,
you
will
still
be
in
violation
following
orders
does
not
exonerate
you.
Why
do
I
say
this
all
currently
available?
Copit19
vaccines
have
been
authorized
by
the
fda
under
emergency
use
and
cannot
be
mandated.
I
I
The
right
of
americans
to
decline,
a
vaccine
medical
procedure
or
medicine
approved
under
emergency
use
is
protected
under
u.s
law.
Coercion
of
any
kind
violates
federal
and
international
law.
Informed
consent
is
required,
people
must
be
given
all,
and
I
want
to
emphasize
all
the
information
about
the
significant
known
and
potential
benefits
and
risk
and
of
the
extent
to
which
such
benefits
and
risks
are
unknown.
I
I
have
provided
the
evidence
of
these
statements
in
my
written
testimony
to
emphasize
once
again,
people
must
be
told
all
the
risks
and
benefits
of
an
experimental
medicine
and
they
have
a
legal
right
to
decline.
Any
experimental
vaccine
coercion
of
any
kind
is
prohibited.
If
you
were
holding
groups
to
combat
quote
vaccine
hesitancy,
you
are
violating
the
law.
I
I
So
do
one-sided
persuasion
in
which
parents
are
not
informed
of
the
numerous
adverse
side
effects
and
deaths
following
these
shots,
if
you
coerce
parents
in
any
way,
including
through
persuasion
or
one-sided
presentations
or
mandates
of
these
injections
or
tests,
you
can
be
held
accountable
in
federal
and
international
courts.
Three
minutes.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
J
Okay,
great
thank
you
hi,
I'm
marty
hopper.
I
live
in
boulder
county,
I'm
also
speaking
tonight
with
concerns
about
boulder
county's,
coveted
vaccine
policies,
which
include
the
current
mandate
for
county
employees,
as
well
as
plans
to
continue
promoting
the
injections
for
children
and
possibly
even
infants.
First,
both
data
and
logic
tell
us.
The
vaccines
are
not
working.
According
to
the
boulder
county,
public
health
department
website,
82
percent
of
boulder
county
residents
ages,
five
and
over,
are
fully
vaccinated,
making
it
one
of
the
highest
in
the
country
if
the
coveted
vaccines
work.
J
J
Regarding
children,
I
also
have
grave
concerns
about
the
safety
of
these
vaccines.
Although
vaccines
are
given
in
abundance
for
childhood
illnesses,
we
all
know
that
covid19
is
not
a
childhood
childhood
illness,
but
one
that
mostly
impacts
older
adults.
National
data
demonstrates
that
the
likelihood
of
a
child
surviving
covid
is
over
99.99.
J
J
The
number
of
deaths
in
boulder
county
from
covet
19
according
to
your
website,
is
372,
which
is
one
tenth
of
one
percent
of
our
residents.
I
tried
to
find
the
number
of
debt,
those
deaths
who
were
children,
but
this
information
is
not
available
on
the
boulder
county
website.
When
I
contacted
the
health
department,
I
was
told
you
don't
collect
fatality
numbers
by
age
and
that
I
should
check
the
cdc
national
data.
It
seems
imperative
to
track
such
data
before
promoting
an
experimental
injection
for
our
children
according
to
theirs,
the
cdc's
vaccine
safety
monitoring
system.
J
A
Okay,
thank
you,
jordan.
Can
I
ask
a
clarifying
question
camille
or
indira,
I'm
not
sure
where
this
may
meeting
stuff,
I
mean
other
than
talking
about
planning
for
the
eventual
approval
of
vaccines
for
children
under
five.
There
was
no
talk
of
any
mandate
for
that
correct.
K
Greg
I'd
be
happy
to
have
indira
answer
that,
specifically,
the
recollection
of
mine
is
the
same,
and
there
was
no
intention
by
boulder
county
public
health
to
mandate
any
vaccines
for
children.
If
that's
what
you're
asking
but
indira,
are
you
able
to
hop
on
and
yeah
and
answer
a
little
further
into
that
for
us?
Thank
you.
L
L
So
we
do
prepare
for
that,
because
we
do
offer
those
vaccinations,
but
there
is
no
mandate
associated
with
that.
It's
just
being
able
to
offer
those
vaccinations
to
the
general
public
and
we
do
have
focus
groups
that
we
have
ongoing.
But
none
of
those
focus
groups
are
are
mandating
anything
for
vaccines,
in
fact
we're
just
asking
parents
their
what
their
thoughts
and
concerns
are.
So
we
can
better
learn
and
appreciate
all
all
sides
of
how
people
feel
about
vaccines.
It's
in
boulder
county.
K
L
K
A
Okay,
all
right
well
we're
going
to
move
on
to
item
two
of
the
agenda,
which
is
approval
of
the
minutes,
and
we
have
the
may
9th
regular
meeting
minutes
by
may
23rd
special
meeting
minutes
and
june
7th
special
meeting
notes.
B
This
is
morgan
I'll
make
one
motion
for
all
three,
so
I
move
to
approve
the
minutes
for
the
may
9th
regular
meeting
minutes.
The
may
23rd
special
meeting
minutes
and
the
june
7th
special
meeting
minutes.
K
Yeah
thanks
greg,
as
you
indicated
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting,
we
were
not
going
to
list
every
staff
person,
that's
present,
but
wait
until
the
presentation.
At
this
time
we
have
joe
malinowski
our
environmental
health
division
manager
to
give
an
update
so
I'll
turn
it
over
to
joe.
M
Thank
you
camille
good
evening
board
for
the
update
today.
M
What
I
thought
I
would
do
is
take
you
through
each
of
those
areas
that
we've
been
talking
about
for
our
environmental
health
response
and
really
focus
you
on
what
were
the
original
goals
and
objectives
in
each
of
those
areas,
whether
it's
the
food
safety
or
the
air
quality
or
healthy
homes
or
the
hazardous
waste
or
water
quality,
but
just
those
original
goals
and
objectives
that
we
had
set
and
take
a
look
at
those
and
so
take
a
look
at
the
kind
of
the
time
frame
of
when
we
expected.
M
If
we
haven't
already
moved
away
from
some
of
that
work,
when
we
expect
to
be
able
to
move
away
from
that
work
or
at
least
be
able
to
be
not
in
such
an
emergency
mode
and
be
able
to
move
it
into
the
individual
programs
to
still
respond.
M
So
first
slide,
please
so
just
looking
at
food
safety,
our
original
goal
is
to
ensure
retail
food
establishments
and
impacted
by
the
fire
mitigate
those
food
safety
risks
prior
to
reopening
and
then
again
the
other
part
of
the
sector
was
the
residents
that
were
impacted,
and
you
know
so.
They
were
aware
of
what
to
do
with
the
spoiled
food
in
their
homes
and
those
kind
of
things
around
food
safety,
and
really
the
team
did
a
great
job
here.
I
think
we
reached
out
to
over.
We
did
actual
inspections
over
100
restaurants.
M
We
reached
out
to
all
the
restaurants
in
the
retail
food
facilities
in
superior
lewisville.
I
think
there
was
out
of
those
hundred
facilities.
There
was
25
that
were
really
impacted
by
the
by
the
that
really
had
direct
impact
from
the
fire,
and
I
think,
all
of
all
of
those
there's,
I
think
three
that
probably
will
not
open
just
because
they
were
severely
damaged
and
perhaps
just
chose
not
to
open,
there's
a
couple,
others
that
are
just
rebuilding
so
out
about
hundreds
about
five
facilities
that
are
still
working
to
reopen
to
get
back
to
business.
M
And
again,
most
of
this
work
was
really
wrapped
up
at
the
end
of
february
first
part
of
march,
and
while
we
can,
we
will
to
continue
to
work
with
those
individual
restaurants
and
retail
food
facilities.
Most
that
work
is
just
going
back
to
our
regular
probiotic
work
next
slide,
please
so
hazardous
waste
we
really
focused
on
this
was
really
ensure
the
fire
and
ash
impacted.
M
Soils
were
mediated
to
mitigate
health
and
environmental
impacts,
and
really
what
we
really
did
was
work
with
cdph
to
figure
out
what
was
the
best
way
to
approach
the
the
make
sure
that
there
wasn't
going
to
be
hazardous
waste
remaining
after
the
fire.
Ridge
of
this
state
just
want
to
do
visual
inspections
of
just
requiring
to
make
sure
as
best
as
no
testing
we
wanted
to
based
on
some
california
data
we
saw.
We
felt
that
there
needed
to
be
some
testing
done,
so
we
did
our
own
testing
on
soil
sampling.
M
I'm
also
aware
that
some
of
the
schools
in
the
municipalities
and
also
some
additional
soil
testing-
and
we
ended
up
using
that
data
for
not
only
to
look
at
the
risks
to
the
public,
but
also
to
help
coordinate
the
resource
conservation
approach
to
their
sat
on
the
soil,
sampling
parameters
for
the
cleanup
efforts,
and
then
we
also
developed
just
multiple
frequently
asked
questions
resources
on
the
web
to
help
residents
with
that.
So
really
that
that
worked,
it's
pretty
much.
M
We
we
understood
the
level
of
contamination
we
were
able
to
set
that
protocol,
and
most
of
that
work
was
wrapped
up
in
april.
Although
we
do
con,
do
consider
to
do
look
at
some
of
the
results
that
they're
getting
from
the
actual
cleanup
and
testing
make
sure
they're
still
following
a
guidance
next
slide.
Please.
M
So
water
quality,
one
aspect
of
that
was
we
were
looking
at
the
unincorporated
areas
with
most
of
those
folks
were
on
wells.
So
the
water
quality
team
really
wanted
to
support
homeowners
that
were
on
private
wells
to
be
able
to
understand
if
their
water
was
safe
or
not
from
the
fire,
not
a
lot
of
research
that
area.
So
we
were
concerned
just
with
what
was
the
effects.
M
Perhaps
there
was
back
siphons
from
the
homes
and
those
kind
of
things
are
actual
direct
damage
to
the
well
heads
that
we
just
wanted
to
make
sure
we
could
evaluate.
So
what
we
did
was
just
worked
with
our
communication
folks
develop
guidance
around
what
to
test,
for
we
provided
a
list
of
laboratories.
M
We
collaborated
with
cdphe
and
their
talks
to
college,
to
be
able
to
answer
questions
on
people
for
those
results,
and
then
we
also
work
with
purdue
university
on
some
actual
testing
they
did
for
vocs
and
what
we
really
found
that
there
wasn't
much
impact
from
docs,
at
least
from
the
fire,
but
there
were
components
of
the
water
system,
wells
and
electrical
that
were
damaged,
that
we
were
able
to
just
help.
M
People
navigate
to
get
those
fixed
and
what
to
know
what
they
needed
to
repair
and
again,
most
of
that
work
was
wrapped
up
in
may
of
this
year.
M
Our
next
one
is
septic
systems.
I'm
sorry
this
this
work,
so
this
work
is
probably
where
we'll
be
spending
most
of
our
time
in
the
future.
So
there
was
150
homes
that
were
damaged
over
150
homes
are
damaged
in
the
county
that
are
on
septic
systems
and
our
our
goal
is
to
enforce
the
regulatory
requirements
around
that.
So
what
we
did?
M
M
We
expect
this
work
because
there's
150
homes
and
people
will
take
long.
You
know
a
long
time
to
navigate
the
process
to
get
rebuilding
and
everything
is
involved
to
do
that.
We
expect
to
be
working
in
this,
probably
for
the
next
five
years
to
help
those
folks,
150
systems
get
re-permitted
and
re-established
again.
This
is
probably
where
we'll
spend
most
of
our
time
in
the
future.
M
Next
slide,
please
another
aspect
of
water
quality
was
the
storm
water
work.
We
didn't
really.
What
we're
trying
to
do
is
protect
surface
water
quality
from
impacts
from
the
burn,
scar
really
run
off
from
the
fire
and
really
what
we
did
was
just
we.
We
serve
as
a
regulatory
authority
for
storm
water
in
that
incorporated
unincorporated
parts
of
boulder
county,
and
we
need
to
maintain
compliance
with
the
clean
water
act,
and
then
we
also
need
to
we
facilitated
regulatory
compliance
around
the
technical
support
for
the
debris
removal.
M
So
we
just
want
to
make
sure
when
they
remove
the
debris
they
weren't,
causing
additional
debris
that
could
be
washed
into
the
storm
drains
and
really
what
we
ended
up
doing
really
consulting
with
them.
If
you
remember
there
was
that
that
met
the
hydro
bulging,
we
talked
about
this
so
to
stabilize
the
soil
to
keep
a
lot
of
that
from
running
off.
That
was
really
highly
effective.
M
We
also
collaborated
with
the
partners
in
superior
lewisville
on
their
stormwater
issues
as
well
and
again,
we
expect
this
work
to
really
coincide
when
we
expect
the
clean
actual
cleanup
to
be
completed,
which
we
expected
to
clean
around
the
end
of
september
of
this
year.
M
Thank
you
very
much,
okay
for
outdoor
air,
really,
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
modern
report,
air
quality
to
impact
the
residents,
the
burning
and
provide
guidance
on
the
mitigate
health
impacts,
and
we
will
also
want
to
assure
that
air
quality
impacts
are
minimized
during
debris,
removal
and
really
we
present
multiple
times
on
the
board.
This,
where
we
were
able
to
work
with
the
municipalities
in
the
schools
and
and
set
up
those
26
air
monitors.
Looking
at
particulates,
we
cut
we
contract
with
clarity
for
those
monitors.
M
We
also
worked
with
love
my
air
and
denver
public
health
to
get
those
the
actual
data
on
web
worked
for
our
communication.
Folks
worked
extensively
to
try
to
make
that
as
user
friendly
as
possible,
we
also
developed
those
user
alerts
where
people
can
sign
up
to
have
actual
communications
pushed
out
based
on
that
that
air
quality
that
we
showed
you
before.
M
We
use
this
also
to
help
establish
the
air
monitoring
requirements
during
the
debris
removal.
So
the
contracts
are
required
to
have
air
monitoring
in
place
so
that
as
they're
moving
debris
out,
if
they
have
actually
have
wind
storms,
those
kind
of
things
they're
doing
what
they
need
to
minimize
the
dust
wetting
it
down
and
those
kind
of
things,
and
not
working
when
it's
high
wind
days.
But
these
monitors
will
help
us
know
if
they're
actually
doing
a
good
job
with
that
and
then.
M
M
We
saw
that
it
wasn't
much
higher
than
background,
but
hopefully
some
of
that
research
can
be
used
to
help
establish
some
of
the
perhaps
residential
standards,
not
just
not
looking
at
worker
standards
for
for
exposure
to
those
kind
of
contaminants,
then
also
how
climate
change
perhaps
affected
marshall,
fire
and
and
some
of
the
health
implications
of,
and
what
we
expect
to
see
in
the
future.
M
M
Another
really
robust
area
of
our
response
was
around
the
indoor
out
healthy,
healthy
homes.
We
just
wanted
to
ensure
that
homeowners
had
the
information
they
needed
to
properly
clean
up
their
homes
and
mitigate
the
risk
and
also
know
what,
if
they
were
impacted,
what
to
look
for.
We
also
wanted
to
ensure
that
guidance
was
developed
around
windblown
ash
for
the
public
spaces,
so
we
could
so
we've
developed
multiple
information
on
the
web.
Around
that
guidance,
we
worked
with
the
school
districts
who
did
testing
on
their
indoor
air
quality.
M
We
gave
we
provided
help
help
them
provide
just
their
cleanup
guidance
for
their
their
schools,
and
we
continue
to
partner
again
with
those
researchers
that
we're
going
into
homes
and
doing
air
monitoring
there,
as
well
just
to
see
what
the
vocal
levels
were
and-
and
we
also
hired.
If
you
recall,
we
also
hired
industrial
hygienists
to
work
individually
with
homeowners
to
answer
questions
and
help
navigate
any
reports
they
had.
I
think.
M
M
But
again
this
work
we
pretty
much,
are
going
to
see
it
go
away.
Just
the
inquiries
from
the
public
have
slowed
down.
So
we
expect
that
work
to
end
by
july
of
this
year.
M
B
Thanks
joe
to
you
and
your
team
for
really
just
doing
so
much
lifting
around
this
recovery
work
and
so
really
appreciate
that
on
the
contributions
of
bcph
through
the
community
recovery-
and
I
just
wanted
to
sort
of
clarify
on
that
expectation
that
permitting
is
going
to
take
up
to
five
years.
That
is
it's
not
that
the
septic
system
is
the
bottleneck
of
that
whole
process.
B
I
mean
there
is
the
site
cleanup
and
then
there's
the
design
process
and
working
sort
of
through
you
know
getting
an
architect
and
getting
all
of
the
permitting
through
right,
so
just
to
clarify
the
expectation
that
this
might
take
five
years.
There
are
many
other
hurdles,
unfortunately
facing
those
who
are
looking
to
rebuild.
Not
their
septic
system
is
that.
M
I
think
you're
right,
a
lot
of
folks
may
want
to
change
the
design
of
their
home,
so
they
may
be
working
with
design,
you
know,
and
then
they
have
to
find
a
contractor
and
just
navigate.
I
know
at
the
pine
cliff
fire
I
think,
there's
only
it's
been
what
almost
three
years
now
and
I
think
only
a
few
of
those
homes
have
actually
started
to
rebuild
it.
Just
takes
that
long
to,
I
think,
to
navigate
the
insurance
as
well.
C
M
So,
as
I
understand
there's
already
folks,
working
with
with
the
planning
and
on
the
county's
permitting
and
code
enforcement
folks
to
do
the
the
building
permits,
they
actually
have
developed
a
separate
process
for
homes
that
were
in
the
fire
to
just
expedite
them
by
understanding.
I
think
we
had
one
of
our
first
contractors
to
trying
to
already
start
to
do.
Go
through
the
you
know
to
get
a
permit
for
the
system.
If
you
recall,
we
did
waive
the
fees
for
the
septic
systems
of
people
that
already
had
an
improved
system.
C
A
K
Oh,
I
was
gonna.
I
was
gonna,
introduce
our
climate
action
team
leed,
grace
hood
as
well
as
our
air
quality
and
healthy
homes
coordinator
bill
hayes
to
give
the
board
of
health
an
update
on
our
heat
emergency
project.
Go
ahead
team
thanks.
N
Thank
you,
camille
and
good
evening
board
bill
hayes
air
quality
coordinator
here
to
present
tonight
our
extreme
heat
emergency
response
plan,
so
this
work
began
last
year
after
the
pacific
northwest
had
their
unprecedented
heat
dome.
We
realized
that
this
was
an
area
that
we
could
improve
our
emergency
response,
initially
rachel
arndt
chris
campbell
and
kerry
middleton
in
emergency
preparedness.
N
The
four
of
us
met
several
times
talked
about
how
we
might
put
such
a
plan
together,
but
it
really
didn't
gain
traction
and
start
moving
until
october
when
we
brought
grace
hood
on,
and
so
I'd
like
to
acknowledge
her
great
work
in
leading
this
effort.
N
We've
also
partnered
outside
of
public
health,
working
with
the
area
agency
on
aging
working
with
via
mobility,
working
with
our
public
library
systems
working
with
our
emergency
operations
management
center.
So
a
lot
of
people
have
put
some
input
into
this
plan.
Grace
is
gonna.
Tell
you
about
it
and
the
only
thing
else
I'll
add
is
you
know
this
is
gonna,
be
test
run
this
summer,
we're
fully
expecting
to
learn
as
we
go
and
make
the
plan
more
robust
in
the
future.
O
O
So
it
just
kind
of
highlights
the
importance
of
this
plan
and
our
work
that's
going
to
be
happening
over
the
summer
head
to
the
next
slide,
so
risk
of
extreme
heat.
You
see
here
on
this
slide
that
actually
extreme
heat
causes
more
deaths
than
any
other
weather-related
related
hazard,
that's
more
than
tornadoes
extreme
cold,
even
wind
and
floods.
O
Sometimes
people
refer
to
extreme
heat
as
the
silent
killer,
and
this
doesn't
even
count
the
thousands
of
people
who
get
medical
treatment
for
heat
related
illness
next
slide.
O
So
bill
had
mentioned
the
portland
heat
dome,
so
some
interesting
statistics,
so
in
multnomah
county
this
is
just
surrounding
portland.
Obviously,
the
heat
dome
also
covered
seattle,
but
I
thought
I
would
draw
to
your
attention
to
the
fact
that
half
of
the
72
deaths
in
the
county
surrounding
portland
were
older
adults
and
among
those
who
died.
O
None
had
air
conditioning
kind
of
speaks
to
kind
of
a
key
demographic
for
us,
which
is
older
adults,
but
also
the
importance
of
air
conditioning
in
terms
of
surviving
a
extreme
heat
event
head
to
the
next
one.
O
We
also
know
that
climate
change
is
happening.
It's
here.
It's
arrived
in
boulder
county,
we're
estimating
about
an
8
degree,
fahrenheit
increase
in
summer
temperatures
in
the
coming
decades,
which
would
essentially
make
our
climate
feel
like
northern
new
mexico
and
boy.
Sometimes
it
just
feels
really
hot
already
this
past
weekend
certainly
felt
that
way
ahead
to
the
next
slide,
so
who's
at
risk.
O
Well,
there's
kind
of
two
weather
national
weather
service
products
that
were
keying
off
of
the
first
is
a
national
weather
service
warning,
and
this
is
the
most
extreme
product
that
the
national
service
puts
out
on
extreme
heat.
So
this
is
where
temperatures
exceed
105
degrees
or
greater,
and
this
is
for
two
or
more
days-
and
this
is
also
where
nighttime
temperatures
may
or
may
not
go
below
75
degrees
at
night,
under
this
more
extreme
warning,
everyone's
at
risk,
national
weather
service
advisory.
O
So
this
this
is
where
temperatures
are
above
100
degrees,
fahrenheit
for
two
or
more
days,
and
temperatures
may
or
may
not
go
below
75
degrees
at
night,
and
we
have
specific
groups
that
are
at
risk,
so
older
adults,
outdoor
workers,
households
without
air
conditioning
we
have
children
under
the
age
of
four
individuals,
with
chronic
medical
conditions
as
well
as
outdoor
athletes
and,
in
addition
to
these
groups,
boulder
county
public
health
has
also
identified
individuals
living
in
manufactured
homes
and
our
unhoused
population
as
high-risk
groups.
O
So,
let's
head
to
the
next
slide,
so
for
this
summer,
boulder
county
public
health,
our
extreme
heat
response.
What
we're
working
with
here
is
during
an
extreme
heat
event.
So
again,
that's
a
warning
or
advisory.
We
are
asking
individuals
to
go
to
a
boulder
county
heat
relief
site.
O
So
if
individuals
do
not
have
air
conditioning
we're
advising
them
to
go
to
the
heat
relief
site,
which
is
our
local
libraries
head
to
the
next
slide
and
a
couple
of
points
of
note
so
fans
during
a
extreme
heat
event
really
are
not
effective
at
preventing
heat
illness,
they
can't
cool
the
core
body
temperatures.
O
So
that's
why
we're
one
of
our
key
messages
is
that
air
conditioning
is
the
number
one
way
to
stay
safe
and
it
doesn't
even
necessarily
have
to
be
going
to
a
heat
relief
site.
You
know
we
also
have
talking
points
in
in
our
press.
Release
and
information
about
hey
indoor
malls
go
to
a
movie,
there's
a
number
of
different
places
where
folks
can
get
relief.
O
We
also
have
advice
about
checking
on
your
neighbors
certainly
seems
like
after
the
marshall
fire,
we've
been
through
a
number
of
emergencies
here
in
the
last
couple
of
years,
so
our
advice
to
folks
is
really
to
establish
those
relationships
with
neighbors
early
before
an
emergency,
but
certainly
during
an
emergency.
O
If
you
have
an
older
adult,
particularly
an
older
adult
who's
living
alone
check
in
with
them
see
how
they're
doing-
and
you
know,
maybe
invite
them
over
to
have
a
cup
of
coffee.
If
you
have
air
conditioning
and
you
notice
that
they
don't
head
to
the
next
slide.
O
So
what
are
we
doing
for
outreach?
Well
right
now,
in
the
coming
days,
we'll
be
doing
an
early
summer.
Information
push
so
that'll,
be
a
press
release
in
english
and
spanish.
Just
talking
sharing
some
of
our
talking
points,
but
also
pointing
individuals
towards
our
webpage.
That
has
a
number
of
information.
It
has
a
lot
of
information
and
also
infographics
in
both
english
and
spanish
on
just
what
does
heat
related
illness
look
like.
O
We
also
last
month
held
a
webinar
for
both
older
older
adults
and
for
outdoor
businesses
related
to
extreme
heat.
So
I
mentioned,
we've
been
doing
some
outdoor
business
outreach
and
then,
in
terms
of
the
other
component
of
our
older
adult
education.
O
The
other
thing
that
we're
doing
is
distributing
a
two-page
flyer
that
we've
developed
that
really
talks
about
heat-related
illness
and
how
to
stay
safe
during
an
extreme
heat
event.
We're
going
to
be
using
and
working
with
our
partners,
area
agency
on
aging
and
really
working
with
partners
like
meals
on
wheels
to
distribute
these
flyers
in
both
english
and
spanish
manufactured
home
communities.
O
We
are
going
to
be
holding
a
webinar
later
this
summer
to
work
with
individuals
who
live
in
manufactured
homes,
homeless,
solutions
for
boulder
county
outreach
collaborative,
so
they
are
really
a
key
partner
for
us
during
a
heat
emergency,
and
these
folks
are
really
our
prime
sort
of
channel
for
getting
information
out
to
our
unhoused
individuals
about
where
they
can
seek
refuge
and
air
conditioning
during
a
heat.
Emergency.
O
O
She
has
a
couple
of
different
ways
that
she's
working
with
spanish
language
speakers-
one
of
them,
is
just
by
doing
a
couple
of
media
interviews
that
she
plans
to
do
here
in
the
coming
weeks,
but
she
also
hosts
a
hiking
club
for
spanish
language
speakers.
That's
another
way
that
she'll
be
working
with
folks,
but
also
we're
going
to
be
planning
a
couple
of
events
here
in
the
in
the
about
the
next
month
head
to
the
next
slide.
O
O
The
other
thing
that
we're
working
on
is
we're
mapping
heat
islands
and
heat
hot
spots
across
the
county.
This
is
a
project
that
we're
working
on
with
resilient,
analytics
they're
doing
a
number
of
different
mapping
projects
for
the
oscar
sustainability
group,
and
our
hope
is
that
these
heat
islands
will
not
only
help
us
in
emergency,
but
also
help
us
in
terms
of
developing
some
adaptation
strategies
getting
air
conditioning
or
heat
pumps
which,
if
you're
not
familiar
with
heat
pumps,
they
also
provide
cooling.
O
So
it's
a
little
bit
of
a
confusing
term,
but
you
know
I
think,
long
term.
We
really
need
to
be
thinking
more
about
adaptation
and,
to
what
extent
can
we
get
either
heat
pumps,
which
are
a
little
bit
more
climate,
friendly
or
air
conditioning
into
the
homes
that
really
need
it
and
head
to
the
next
slide?
I
think
that
that
is
it.
Thank
you.
So
much
and
I
welcome
any
questions
that
you
have.
D
Hey
grace,
this
is
lindy.
Thank
you
so
much
for
for
that
report.
I
was
just
about
to
ask
you
about
getting
cooling
units
into
people's
homes.
Obviously
I'm
concerned
particularly
about
the
older
population,
potentially
not
being
able
to
leave
their
homes
to
actually
get
access
to
cooler
environments.
So
I
I
like
to
hear
that
you're
partnering
with
the
area
on
agents,
our
areas
on
aging-
and
I
know
there
are
some
programs
that
already
exist-
that
potentially
could
help
people
with
those
resources.
D
So
if
that's
something
we
might
even
be
able
to
focus
on
sooner
in
terms
of
specific
populations
where
that
might
be
applicable,
and
even
some
funding
to
support
that,
I
would
be
very
supportive,
so
anything
I
can
do
to
help
with
that
particular
population.
I'd
be
excited
to
to
engage
more
around
that.
O
That
would
be
fantastic,
I'll
tell
you
kind
of
the
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
granularity
around
that
plan.
I
mean
really
we're
relying
on
our
partners
at
area
agency
on
aging
and
chris
campbell,
who
I'm
sure
you
all
know,
is
working
with
via
mobility,
but
it's
very
much
sort
of
more,
I
think
of
a
you
know.
The
onus
is
really
on
the
individual
to
say
hey,
I
need
transportation
to
this
place.
O
We
I
would
love
to
hear
kind
of
any
additional
ideas
you
have
about,
maybe
how
we
could
be
a
little
bit
more
proactive
in
that
space.
Yeah.
D
N
And
I'd
jump
in
and
add
that
when
we've
spoken
with
the
area
agency
on
aging,
you
know
they
have
a
very
robust
call
list
for
seniors
in
the
county,
and
you
know
we
have
raised
the
possibility-
it's
not
in
the
plan,
yet
that
they
could
actively
contact
seniors
that
they
know
of
that
live
alone.
N
That
might
need
help.
As
far
as
adding
cooling
you
know.
As
I
said,
this
is
our
first
year
but
long
term.
We
are
already
talking
with
colleagues
there's
a
lot
of
effort
output
right
now
to
promote
heat
pumps
as
energy
efficiency,
greenhouse
gas,
reduced
options,
and
so
we're
talking
with
our
partners
that
are
looking
at
that
on
how
we
can
focus
that
on
lower
income,
folks
to
help
them.
N
And
then
we
have
traditionally
had
weatherization
programs
that
focus
on
insulating
and
heating
homes
for
people
through
the
winter,
and
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
those
existing
programs
and
not
shift
the
focus
but
add
to
the
focus
cooling
in
the
summer.
So
you
know
some
of
those
existing
programs
so
that
we're
not
starting
new.
A
K
B
Yeah
yeah
thanks
grace
and
bill,
and
others
who
have
worked
on
this
really
important
work,
and
you
know
my
first
thought
is:
oh,
my
goodness.
We
need
to
do
more
to
lobby
the
state
on
climate
work
too,
just
to
do
what
we
can
to
prevent
all
of
this
extreme
weather,
and
you
know
it
isn't
a
foregone
conclusion.
There
is
much
that
we
can
do
as
a
state
and
as
a
country.
B
To
try
to
mitigate
some
of
the
climate
impacts,
but
thank
you
for
paying
close
attention
to
this
need.
I
also
was
thinking
about
early
childhood
centers
and
I
don't
know
if
you
are
working
or
early
childhood
providers,
not
just
centers,
but
there's
a
lot
of
in-home
providers
and
when
you
think
about
at-risk
populations
being
including
young
children
and
just
making
sure
I
know
we
have
good
partnerships
with
ece
providers
through
the
covid
work,
but
ensuring
that
they
are
tuned
into
this.
B
Also,
I
mean
a
lot
of
early
childhood
providers,
do
not
have
air
conditioning
or
they
have
unstable
air
conditioning,
so
thinking
about
how
we
can
get
messaging
out
to
them
to
also
just
be
familiar
with
what
resources
might
be
available
to
them,
and
so
just
thinking
about
that
and
then
in
terms
of
the
unhoused
population.
You
know,
I
know
that
we
have
challenges
with
providing
shelter
during
not
during
the
winter
months
in
this
community,
and
so
you
know
I'm
curious.
O
Yeah
I
so
chris
campbell
has
been
doing
most
of
the
outreach
on
finding
places
and
kind
of
securing
spots
for
cooling
centers
we're
calling
them
heat
relief
sites,
but
really
it
is
the
libraries
that
we're
working
with
at
this
point-
and
you
know
I
I
will
have
to
say
one
of
the
interesting
sort
of
conversations
that
we've
been.
Having
is
just
simply
the
fact
that
I
think
there
was
definitely
some
concern
with
among
library
staff.
O
Just
like
hey
what
kind
of
turnout
are
you
expecting,
and
you
know
our
sort
of
initial
response,
and
we
did
quite
a
bit
of
research
and
there's
was
an
amazing
practicum
student
who
worked
with
me
last
semester,
stephanie
pease.
O
The
sad
truth
is
that
folks,
right
now
really
just
do
not
use
cooling,
centers
or
heat
relief
sites
and
so
kind
of
our
initial
response
to
the
library
staff.
Is
we're
just
really
not
expecting
large
numbers,
but
over
time.
O
I
hope
that,
as
we
just
continue
to
edu
educate
the
public,
that
we
will
have
a
larger
demand
for
this
type
of
service,
but
I
think
coming
right
out
of
the
gate.
There's
just
we're
not
sadly
not
expecting
a
huge
turnout
should
we
have
a
heat
emergency.
B
What
sort
of
opportunities
might
exist
in
working
with
faith
communities
who
you
know,
I
think
again,
there's
a
history
in
this
community
of
faith
communities,
opening
up
shelter,
space
for
cold
weather
events
to
unhouse
individuals?
But
you
know
it:
could
a
similar
partnership
be
worked
into
around
heat
events,
too,
and
and
given
sort
of
the
generosity
of
faith
communities
in
that
space?
Could
we
work
with
them
to
look
at
these
events
as
well.
O
It
is
I'll
drop,
a
link
in
the
chat
so.
C
I'm
just
I
was
just
looking
to
see
if
I
could
find
it,
because
I
know
a
lot
of
the
complaints
that
I
get
from
the
public
is
that
they
can't
find
information
on
the
public
health
website
and
so
maybe
consider
dropping
a
heading
link
on
the
home
page,
since
this
is
something
that's
pretty
important
and
we're
already
we're
already
really
dealing
with
it.
Now.
A
So
it
won't
be
triggered
a
lot
if
you,
if
you
go
off
their
criteria,
I
would
guess
maybe
once
or
twice
a
summer
you'll
have
consecutive
days
at
or
above
100,
but
usually
the
lows
always
get
below
75.
So
even
then,
your
low
temperature
criteria
might
not
be
exceeded,
which
I
guess
in
the
end
is
not
a
bad
thing
right,
because
it
just
means
that
in
theory
that
should
be
tolerable
for
more
people,
even
though
99
70
degrees
still
makes
it
tough.
A
If
you
don't
have
air
conditioning
in
your
house,
and
your
house
retains
a
lot
of
heat,
so
you
know,
I
think
libraries
are
a
good
starting
point
frankly,
they're
open
during
the
day.
I
guess
my
question
would
be:
is
that
in
the
future,
if
things
like
energy,
rolling
energy
outages
as
a
result
of
demand
and
supply
become
a
factor
which
I'm
not,
I
haven't
heard
excel
talk
about
that
at
all.
I
have
read
about
other
places
that
are
expecting.
You
know:
potential
rolling
outages
over
the
course
of
the
summer
based
on
supply
and
demand.
A
But
then
you
know
what
would
happen
in
the
event
of
let's
say
we
do
get
multiple
events
in
a
year
and
daytime
relief
is
one
thing.
Nighttime
relief
is
entirely
different
right
where
you're
talking
about,
then
maybe
an
emergency
cooling
center
that
has
to
have
after
hours
operation
and
not
just
a
facility
like
a
library
or
a
rec
center
that
may
have
more
traditional
types
of
hours.
So,
but
it's
important
work
and
we
have
to
start
somewhere
so
good
job
grayson,
though.
O
Yeah,
you
know,
and
one
thing
greg
I'll
just
point
out
is
you're
absolutely
right.
I
think
we've
only
had
something
like
eight
or
nine
heat,
advisories
or
warnings
in
the
state.
But
one
thing
we
learned
in
the
course
of
our
research
is
that
the
national
weather
service
is
developing
a
new
product
called
heat
risk
and,
as
a
result
of
that,
that's
actually
triggering
more
heat
advisories
for
our
denver
metro
area.
O
So
I
think
we
will
start
to
see
kind
of
more
of
these
and
in
the
sense
that
the
national
weather
service
isn't
factoring
in
humidity
as
much
for
our
region,
obviously,
because
we
would
never
have
a
heat
advisory
or
warning,
but
they
have
they
absolutely
use
it
in
the
southeast
and
places
like
that.
O
So
I
I
sadly
I
think
we
will
be
seeing
more
potentially
to
come,
but
it's
a
good
point
on
the
the
blackouts
and
and
redundancy
I
mean
that's,
certainly
something
to
just
be
thinking
about
in
terms
of
having
air
conditioning
back
up
wherever
we
do
have
offer
cooling
yeah.
N
And
I
would
just
add
on
that
grace
and
I
had
a
really
good
conversation
today
with
our
colleagues
up
at
the
city
of
fort
collin
and
we've
been
talking
with
them
over
the
last
year,
as
they
also
developed
an
extreme
heat
response
plan
and
they're,
taking
a
a
kind
of
different
tact
on
when
they
activate
their
plan
based
on
forecast
models.
N
D
D
So
I
wonder
if
we
can
sort
of
correlate
that
that
uptick
in
communication
with
the
public
in
some
way
to
ensure
that
we're
getting
the
message
out,
even
if
we're
not
in
a
true
heat
advisory,
that
you
know
it's
getting
warm
and
to
take
precautions
and
all
the
things
that
we
want
people
to
make
sure
they're
doing,
particularly
if
they're
in
high
risk
groups
similar
to
air
quality
similar
to
red
flag
warning
days.
Obviously
these
things
are
tend
to
be
intercorrelated
as
well.
A
Okay,
well,
thank
you
again,
I'm
glad
you
guys
are
thinking
about
that.
If
you're
interested
bill,
we
recently
developed
our
cooling
center
guidance.
However,
that
would
likely
pertain
to
what
I
mentioned
in
terms
of
an
emergency
shelter
right
where
it
would
be
open
beyond
business
hours,
normal
business
hours.
So
it's
pretty
short,
I'm
happy
to
send
it
to
you
just
for
future
reference.
A
All
right,
we
will
move
on
to
item
four.
L
L
So
just
some
key
messages
up
front
is
that
we
are
still
in
a
pandemic
state
and
the
teams.
The
covid
response
teams
have
been
working
over
the
past
few
months
on
internal
plans
to
shift
our
response,
and
most
of
that
has
to
do
with
reflecting
changes
in
grant
scopes
of
work.
So
we're
getting
different
guidance
from
the
federal
and
state
governments
who
are
telling
us
that
they'd
want
us
to
move
in
a
little
slightly
different
direction
in
terms
of
case
investigation
contact
tracing.
L
L
You
know
the
the
rates
from
the
school
of
public
health.
Their
forecast
should
probably
come
out
in
the
next
week
or
so,
but
we're
doing
fairly
well
as
a
state
and
as
a
community.
Our
vaccination
rates
are
pretty
high,
so
we're
we're
holding
pretty
strong.
We
know
that
our
variance
will
continue
to
emerge
as
long
as
we
have
community
transmission
and
that
continues
to
be
widespread.
L
So
right
now
the
predominant
variant
is
the
omega
variance
and
we're
starting
to
see
shifts
to
ba
four
and
five,
as
they
start
to
increase
the
prevalence.
But
formicron
is
you
can
hold
both
in
the
state
and
in
boulder
county
and
in
order
for
us
to
think
kind
of
in
the
future
and
how
we're
going
to
support
the
community.
L
L
The
distribution
across
different
sites
across
the
state
is
being
managed
by
the
state
health
department,
but
it's
my
understanding
that
that
federal
money
is
is
poised
to
run
out
at
the
end
of
the
month,
and
so
this
may
cause
us
to
have
to
pivot
a
little
bit
on
the
therapeutic
side,
which
is
another
reason
why
we
want
to
hold
off
on
sharing
our
plans
until
potentially
july.
So
we
can
see
what
happens
in
the
space.
B
L
Sure
insurance
will
cover
it.
The
problem
will
be
access,
accessibility,
so.
L
What
happens
if
you're
underinsured
you
can't
and
and
one
of
the
challenges-
and
we
can
talk
about
this
towards
the
end-
is
that
you
know
you
really
have
to
go
see
it.
You
have
to
go,
see
a
provider,
so
you
have
to
have
that
connection
to
a
provider
and
and
within
five
days
of
being
symptomatic,
and
that
makes
it
really
challenging,
particularly
if
you
can't
see
your
doctor
within
five
days,
so
we
have
been
working
on
this.
We
have
a
new
website
going
up
we're
working
closely
with
the
state.
L
We
actually
have
staff
that
are
just
focusing
on
therapeutics,
because
we
know
it's
the
path
forward,
but
it's
not
going
to
work
for
people
if
we
can't
get
them
in
to
get
a
provider
to
write
a
script
so
and
you
can't
even
get
in
your
provider
now
so
I'll
try
imagining
trying
to
get
in
within
five
days,
so
people
are
having
a
hard
time
with
it,
and
so
we're
trying
to
work
on
that
piece
as
well,
particularly
for
the
under
uninsured
or
people
who
have
you
know
from
an
equity
lens.
L
L
So
these
are
the
three
indicators
that
we're
using.
These
are
part
of
the
cdc's.
You
know
our
switch
to
the
community
levels
right
now,
we're
in
high,
so
our
coded
cases
for
100
000
over
the
last
seven
days.
Just
at
379.2,
you
can
see
that
our
covet
hospitalizations
for
100
000
in
the
last
seven
days
total
is
16.4.
L
This
is
a
lot
lower
number,
which
is
good,
but
still
it
puts
us
in
a
high
category
and
then
the
percent
of
staffed
inpatient
beds
occupied
by
covenant
patients
is
less
than
ten
percent.
So
it's
in
the
median
category.
L
There
are
currently
14
counties
in
the
state
of
colorado
that
are
in
high
community
level
of
high
and
27
in
medium
and
the
rest
are
in
low.
Most
of
the
lows
are
in
rural
areas.
In
eastern
colorado,
next
one
put
this
graph
together,
which
I
thought
was
really
good.
It's
this
the
cdc's
community
levels
for
boulder
county
over
time.
L
So
you
can
see
back
in
april
when
I
was
mentioning
that
community
was
super
high
back,
then
we
were
in
the
low
with
a
low
number
of
cases,
low
number
of
admissions
hospitals
and
the
beds
that
are
occupied,
and
then
over
time
we
moved
from
low
to
medium
to
high,
which
we're
currently
at
in
the
last
date
being
june
9th,
and
I
think
what
this
this
data
also
suggests
is
that
you
know
our
vaccines
are
holding
up
against
severe
disease.
L
So
when
you
take
a
look
closer
look
at
this
data,
it's
telling
the
story
that
is
very
similar
to
what
cd
phd
just
released,
which
is
that
you
know
compared
to
people
who
are
unvaccinated
people
who
are
boosted.
So
that
means
they're
vaccinated
and
have
been
boosted
are
less
likely
to
be
infected.
There
are
three
times
less
likely
to
be
hospitalized
and
almost
five
times
less
likely
to
die
and
that
data
really
kind
of
shows
up
here
that
we're
seeing
pretty
widespread
community
transmission.
L
This
is
just
looking
at
case
trends
among
age
groups.
The
seven
day
cumulative
case
rate
per
100
000
really
remains
highest
among
those
in
the
35
to
54
age
group,
and
you
know
those
are
kind
of
those
top
green
and
purple,
and
but
the
case
numbers
themselves
were
highest
among
those
23
to
34..
L
But
we
expect
some
fluctuation
over
time
of
these
age
groups,
and
I
should
share
that.
You
know
we
don't
expect
us
to
come
out
of
being
in
high
cbc
high
level
transmission
just
because
our
wastewater
data
is
starting
to
indicate
that
we're
starting
to
see
a
little
bit
of
a
certain
thing.
That's
just.
L
Just
quickly
running
through
these
just
community
testing-
and
you
know
the
epi
and
what's
happening
programmatically
with
testing.
We
learned
today
that
stasio
and
saint
brain
in
valley,
school
district's
innovation
center,
will
actually
have
been
approved
to
stay
open
until
the
end
of
september,
which
is
really
good.
So
up
until
now,
we've
been
kind
of
getting
this
month
to
month
basis
approval
from
the
state.
So
it's
nice
that
they've
given
us
a
few
months
to
know
that
these
will
stay
open.
L
The
others
will
be
closing
that
we
have
on
our
website.
I
believe
at
the
end
of
june
again
we
know
that
lots
of
people
are
accessing
at
home.
Rapid
tests,
which
is
great
not
everyone,
has
access
to
those
at
home
rapid
tests,
and
so
we
do
try
to
promote
that,
particularly
for
older
individuals,
making
sure
that
they're
aware
that
they
can
access
them
through
the
federal
government
and
also
the
state,
but
again
we're
not
counting
all
the
cases,
because
not
everyone
is
going
to
the
website
to
report
in
terms
of
our
epidemiology.
L
This
is
probably
where
we've
seen
the
biggest
shifts
over
the
last
few
months,
we'll
be
moving
away
from
case
investigation
and
contact
tracing,
which
was
kind
of
a
main
pillar
for
us
during
the
pandemic,
and
we've
done
a
lot
of
staffing
in
that
area
and
we'll
be
moving
away
from
that
towards
really
prevention
and
response
and
priority
setting
so
really
focusing
on
infection
prevention,
helping
with
outbreaks
in
areas
such
as
jails,
shelters
and
residential
settings.
L
And
then
our
communication
is
really
going
to
be
general
communication
out
for
the
public,
but
we're
also
going
to
start
doing
more
focused
communication
for
older
adults.
Those
who
are
immunocompromised
have
chronic
conditions.
Reciting
priority
settings
really
encouraging
people
to
to
assess
their
health,
assess
their
risks,
encouraging
them
to
wear
a
mask
and
when
they
need
to
maybe
stay
away
from
large
gatherings.
Things
like
that,
so
really
trying
to
focus
on
those
high
risk
foods
and
then
in
our
data
surveillance.
We
you.
L
You
are
aware
that
we
shifted
to
the
community
levels,
but
then
we
are
still
monitoring
and
using
the
waste
water
just
to
inform
our
surgery.
L
And
then
we
view
this
access
to
vaccines
and
therapeutics
is
really
kind
of
our
way
out
of
being
in
a
pandemic
state.
We
feel
that
they're
pivotal
to
supporting
the
community
through
future
surges,
preventing
death
and
limiting
the
impact
on
our
health
care
systems,
which
has
been
our
overarching
goal,
is
to
limit
the
impact
of
code
on
the
health
care
system,
and
so
we
we
are,
you
know
we
have
vaccinations
that
we
know
that
they.
P
L
As
the
number
one
protection
against
net
compensation,
reducing
infections,
but
the
uptake
is
pretty
hot
right,
so
78
of
our
residents
are
vaccinated
64
up
to
date,
that's
really
good,
we're
very
fortunate,
but
we
we
don't
know
necessarily
what
the
fall
will
look
like
right
and
vaccines
will
become
important
in
terms
of
making
sure
those
who
are
in
those
high-risk
categories
are
getting
boosted.
L
We
don't
necessarily
have
a
plan.
We
do
have
a
vaccine
mandate
for
our
staff.
We
have
decided
that
we're
not
going
to
require
staff
to
be
up
to
date,
which
means
that
they'll
just
be
fully
vaccinated
in
two
shots,
and
we
had
a
conversation
with
dr
boner
about
that
and
feel
good
about
the
direction
we're
moving
there.
L
The
focus
groups
that
we're
doing
just
making
you
aware
that
we
are
working
with
parents
of
children
under
12..
We
also
have
some
teen
young
adult
communication
campaigns
that
we're
really
excited
about
and
those
will
continue
and
help
inform
public
communications
and
really
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
get
everything
in
line
for
kind
of
back
to
school,
in
the
fall
in
the
fall
and
in
terms
of
therapeutics.
L
We
did
launch
the
website
still
promoting
monopoly,
antibody
therapies,
oral
anti-narrow
medications
and,
as
I
said,
we're
going
to
be
working
really
hard
in
this
space
because
we're
very
concerned
about
the
kind
of
barriers
to
accessibility
to
these
things.
So
I
think
that's
it
for
me
any
questions.
A
Well,
yeah,
like
I
mean
obviously
you've
tested,
positive
you've
got
symptoms,
you
go
to
your
physician,
they
confirm
they
prescribe
therapeutics,
and
I
mean
I
guess
you
know
you
either
get
better
most
likely.
You
were
better,
but
I'm
just
curious
if
they're
keeping
those
kind
of
post-hoc
stats
after
administration.
L
P
P
They
have
some
limited
data
on
who's
dispensing
it.
So
so
you
know
who's
get
who's,
giving
out
the
therapeutics,
but
nothing
about
who
they're
giving
it
to
so
it's.
It
is
not
not
a
good
way
of
tracking
it
at
denver
health.
We
can
see
for
the
folks
who
are
patient
in
our
system
and
are
receiving
it.
We
we
have
that
ability.
We
are
a
test
test
to
treat
site.
P
So
there
are
people
who
can
be
referred
from
outside
and
you
know
they'll
get
in
our
system
to
receive
the
to
receive
the
testing
and
the
therapeutics,
but
then
they
may
never
fi.
We
may
never
see
them
again,
so
we
don't
have
complete
data.
E
A
B
L
Our
fqhc
said
that
they
do
not
have
the
capacity
to
be
able
to
provide
that
service,
so
we
have
been
trying
to
encourage
them
to
participate,
but
I
think
you
know
a
lot
of
healthcare
systems,
including
the
you
know.
Fqhcs
have
been
pretty
bad,
so
it's
been
really
hard
for
them
to
take.
B
L
L
P
Yeah
I
mean,
I
think
I
think
telehealth
is
a-
is
a
reasonable
option.
The
the
best
medication
therapeutic
that
we
have,
the
pax
lavid
is
safe.
The
biggest
challenge
is
drug
interactions
and
so
understanding,
knowing
what
people
are
other
medications
and
also
if
there
are,
if
people
are
taking
any
over-the-counter
supplements
or
herbals
as
well,
so
really.
P
Detailed
understanding
of
what
people
are
on
is
probably
the
most
important
step
to
to
know
before,
prescribing
it
so
it.
But
it
really
is
around
the
challenge
that,
with
the
test
to
treat
program
that
the
federal
government
stood
up,
which
is,
I
think,
a
fantastic
concept.
But
it
was
with
the
the
idea
that
well,
the
tests
have
been
provided
for
free
and
the
therapeutics
are
being
provided
for
free.
But
there
was
no
mechanism
for
paying
the
the
provider
costs
and,
and.
A
P
The
infrastructure
needed
to
actually
do
it,
and
so
that's
been
the
biggest
barrier
for
for
up
to
uptake
to
convince
a
site
to
do
it,
for
you
know,
so
it's
broadly
available
not
just
to
the
population
of
people
who
are
already
in
care
through
their
through
their
site.
So
that's
why
there
are
very
few
overall
that
are
doing
it.
Our
one
right.
P
We
only
have
one
clinic,
that's
listed,
that's
doing
it
out
of
our
network
of
fjhts
at
denver
health,
and
it
happens
to
be
the
one
that
also
has
an
urgent
care
and
is
doing
infusions
of
the
monoclonal
antibodies.
So
that's
why
they
were
already
doing
that
and
they're
able
to
expand
to
do
the
test
retreat
for
the
oral
therapeutics
as
well.
But
we
for
similar
reasons
we
don't
have
the
the
capacity
or
or
the
the
necessary
funding
to
to
you
know,
stop
doing
something
else
and
and
and
divert
resources
to
this.
A
That
okay!
Well!
Thank
you
for
the
updates
and
guess
we'll
stay
tuned
as
we
approach
the
fiscal
cliff.
K
Thanks
greg,
I
am
just
going
to
give
a
brief
update.
It
looks
like
we
have
results
from
the
doodle
poll
that
we
did
with
the
board,
as
well
as
with
two
members
of
our
office
of
financial
management
staff
at
the
county
and
the
date
where
everything
synced
and
worked
well
together
was
tuesday
july
19th.
At
5
30
pm
jordan
will
be
sending
out
more
information
in
the
coming
weeks
and
hold
your
calendars.
It
will
be
virtual
and
it
will
be
open
to
the
public,
but
it's
it's
likely.
K
No
public
comment
will
be
taken
at
this
time
because
it's
a
work
session.
So
that's
just
a
very
small
update,
there's
an
explanation,
obviously
in
your
packet,
about
the
nature
of
the
session
and
what
we
intend
to
accomplish,
but
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
that
brief
update
on
behalf
of
catherine
palmer,
our
director
of
administration
and
finance.
Thank
you.
A
K
Yeah
thanks
greg.
Next
we
have
our
consumer
protection
program
coordinator,
lane
drager,
who
is
very
steeped
in
our
policy
and
legislative
work
at
the
at
bcph
and
so
lane
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you
now.
Thank
you
so
much.
Q
Thank
you,
camille
and
good
evening
board.
I
want
to
just
talk
through
some
resources
that
shared
with
you
to
give
you,
hopefully
a
good
idea
of
different
things
that
happened
at
the
legislature
this
last
session.
So
we
had
a
lot
of
information
in
the
director's
report
under
the
legislative
updates
section,
so
I'll
kind
of
talk
through
some
of
that,
then
I
also
wanted
to
point
out
some
of
the
resources
that
were
shared
in
your
overall
packet.
Q
So
one
is
the
summary
of
the
of
the
legislative
session
that
our
lobbyist
for
the
colorado
association
of
local
public
health
officials
puts
together,
and
it's
an
incredibly
thorough
summary,
so
I
think
it's
20
22
plus
pages
or
so
so
that
will
really
walk
through
all
the
bills
that
were
being
tracked.
What
the
status
was.
Q
You
know
some
information
about
the
bills
as
well
as
just
overall
information
about
the
session
and
included
a
little
bit
of
that
in
your
director's
report
as
well,
but
for
for
our
item
tonight
just
wanted
to
highlight
at
least
some
of
the
specific
bills
that
we
were
very
active
on
for
calfo
and
then
highlight
a
few
bills
that
bcph
staff
were
were
also
very
active
on
either
providing
legislative
testimony
or
going
to
add
to
fact
sheets
or
just
lending
our
resources
to
to
those
efforts.
Q
So
we'll
highlight
some
of
those,
so
the
two
bills
that
calpho
was
most
active
on
the
first
one
related
to
flavored
nicotine,
and
so
it
was
an
effort
to
ban
those
those
products
so
think
of
our
vaping
products,
as
well
as
any
cigarettes
cigars,
any
any
tobacco
products.
Q
Q
If
you
recall,
denver
was
successful
in
passing
a
local
ordinance
to
then
have
it
vetoed
by
the
mayor
of
denver,
believing
that
this
should
really
be
dealt
with
at
the
state
level
and
unfortunately,
the
governor's
threat
was
to
veto
because
it
felt
it
should
be
a
local
issue.
So
a
lot
of
work
to
still
try
to
navigate
these
waters
and
figure
out
how
to
be
successful.
Q
Potentially,
we
can
start
at
a
local
level
and
see
if
we
can
be
successful,
but
ultimately
we
do
need
to
see
this
statewide
for
one
municipality
to
have
it
and
be
able
to
sell
it,
and
the
one
next
door
doesn't
really
help
address
the
risks
here.
So
so
that
was
an
unfortunate
bill
that
a
lot
of
activity
and
effort
went
into
including
staff
from
bcph,
but
ultimately
unsuccessful
in
this
session.
Q
The
other
bill
that
had
significant
effort,
also
from
our
folks,
I
think
in
the
commissioner's
office,
was
a
air
toxic
spill
and
so
also
another
challenging
bill
had
a
lot
of
efforts
and,
ultimately,
a
lot
of
changes.
This
one
did
pass
and
instead
of
really
getting
into
a
lot
of
the
regulation
around
air
toxics,
especially
again
at
that
local
level,
where
folks
are
often
exposed
at
again
levels
that
are
dangerous
in
those
those
small
localities
versus
the
larger
airscape
of
you
know
tons
of
hazardous
air
pollutants.
Q
So
the
the
effort
finally
will
be
just
to
monitor
and
and
expand
the
state's
monitoring
efforts
on
those
air
toxics
with
the
hope,
then
that
there
will
be
additional
steps
or
potentially
additional
legislation
based
on
what
the
what
the
findings
of
those
results
are.
So
those
were
the
two
most
active
bills
that
that
calpho
was
involved
in
the
other
bills.
Q
Well,
actually,
in
your
director's
report-
and
I
think
in
in
some
of
the
other
documents,
I've
shared
you'll
get
the
full
list
of
all
the
priority
bills,
as
well
as
all
the
bills.
That
califo
is
monitoring
which
is
incredibly
extensive
and
that
will
give
summaries
and
hyperlinks
to
all
those.
So
you
can
again
see
all
of
that
in
addition
to
that
summary
document,
but
wanted
to
just
highlight
some
of
the
other
bills
that
bcph
staff
were
active
in.
Q
The
next
bill
is
house
bill,
1279,
which
was
reproductive
health
equity
act.
So
this
bill
did
pass
and
was
signed
into
law,
and
it
is
really
focused
on
fundamental
right
to
use
or
refused
contraception
and
pregnant
individual
has
a
fundamental
right
to
continue
the
pregnancy
and
give
birth
or
to
have
an
abortion
so
really
on
those
again,
some
of
those
challenging
things
that
we're
seeing
nationally,
unfortunately,
but
that
bill
did
pass
house
bill,
1153,
marlow's
law,
a
firm
parent,
parentage,
adoption
and
assisted
reproduction.
Q
So
really
looking
at
giving
rights
for
folks
that
are
part
of
that
adoption
process
to
to
be
able
to
adopt
right
at
birth,
and
it
kind
of
walk
through
some
of
the
details
around
that.
So
again,
for
people
who
may
not
be
the
biological
parent
house
bill,
1055
a
sales
tax
exemption
on
essential
products.
Q
So
this
really
looked
at
period.
Products,
which
is
the
nomenclature
that's
being
used
instead
of
feminine
hygiene
products,
as
well
as
adult
incontinence
products,
so
really
removing
the
sales
tax
on
things
that
are
really
essential
for
people
at
different
points
in
their
life
and
that
did
also
pass
and
was
signed
house
bill.
1157
collection
of
data
for
public
health
purposes,
a
fairness
and
data
collection.
So
this
one
also
was
passed
and
signed
into
law,
and
this
was
really
looking
at
getting
that
essential
data.
Q
House
bill
1289
health
benefits
for
colorado,
children
and
pregnant
persons.
This
also
passed
and
was
signed
into
law
again,
looking
at
our
health
insurance
coverage
for
low-income
pregnant
people
and
children
and
local,
low-income
families.
So
an
expansion
of
that
that
effort,
house
or
senate
bill
149
was
an
effort
to
improve
the
marijuana
industry
regulation.
Q
This
bill
was
not
successful.
It
was
postponed
indefinitely
in
the
senate
and
you
could
kind
of
read
some
of
the
specifics
in
the
report
and
then
the
summaries
of
kind
of
what
the
details
were
on
that
that's
kind
of
the
summary
of
kind
of
what
was
going
on
at
the
legislature
this
year.
Again,
please
take
time
to
read
through
that
document
from
our
our
lobbyist.
B
B
Efforts
and
where
they,
what
happened
with
those
bills
and
just
really
thorough.
So
thank
you
for
sharing
that,
and
thanks
also
for
all
the
good
work
that
went
into
the
legislative
session,
with
some
some
good
wins
and
more
to
do
so.
Thanks.
Q
Thank
you
yeah.
I
guess
another
piece
just
I
know
we
started
sharing
information
after
our
last
update
just
wanted
to
also
check
in
on
that
to
see
if
that's
kind
of
information,
that's
helpful
during
the
session
just
to
get
a
sense
from
the
board.
What
kind
of
communication
thinking
into
next
year
would
be
most
helpful
for
for
the
board.
C
B
And
the
only
thing
I
would
add,
because
I
thought
it
was
also
helpful-
and
I
appreciate
it
that
you
all
you
know,
increase
the
communication
with
us
throughout
the
session
also
based
on
our
feedback
and-
and
you
know
just
if
there
are
other
opportunities.
I
think
we
were
asked
at
one
point
to
testify
for
one
bill,
and
you
know
just
thinking
about
how
the
board
boys
can
be
leveraged
either
to
testify
or
again
in
writing
letters
of
support
or
in
other
ways
in
future
sessions.
B
Q
Yeah,
absolutely
and
if
there's
specific
issues
that
any
of
you
are
are
really
championing.
Please
share
that
so
that
I
can
kind
of
have
that
in
my
mind,
as
well
as
the
rest
of
our
our
staff.
So
we'll
kind
of
have
that
in
insight
to
know
these
are
specific
ones
that
you
really
are
very
interested
in
participating
on.
A
Okay,
we
are
moving
on
to
item
eight,
which
is
the
director's
report.
Thanks
greg.
K
Yeah
thanks
greg
it's
a
a
thorough
report,
as
always
staff
contributions
make
up
the
bulk
and
show
off
their
expertise.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
or
lean
on
any
of
the
staff
present
in
the
meeting
tonight.
If
you
have
a
question
you
want
to
ask
of
us
so
I'll
leave
it
at
that.
A
K
Thank
you
to
the
staff
who
every
month
contribute
and
to
jordan
thomas
who
corrals
us
all
to
put
it
together
and
she
makes
it
look
nice.
So
thank
you,
jordan.
L
A
Okay,
that
brings
us
to
the
end.
A
K
K
I
do
know
anecdotally
that
some
of
our
colleagues
in
the
community,
even
other
city
councils,
went
back
in
person
and
and
then
experienced
some
issues
with
community
spread
of
copenhagen,
and-
and
so
I
think,
I'm
not
naming
any
of
our
colleagues
wouldn't
to
ever
do
that,
but
I'm
I'm
being
very
cautious
to
provide
space.
K
So
if
people
feel
symptomatic
or
just
our
public
who
might
be
immunocompromised
and
and
again,
it's
just
been
a
challenge,
because
there's
such
a
demand
for
that
throughout
the
organization
boulder
county
in
general,
not
even
for
the
departments
that
have
boards
and
commissions,
but
just
who
want
to
conduct
hybrid
meetings,
and
so
I
will
be
happy
to
email
the
board
with
an
update
after
I
connect
with
facilities
and
other
staff
who
are
involved
in
that
direct
communication,
I'll
I'll
get
that
out
to
you
hopefully
tomorrow.
Thank
you.
Okay,
thanks.
A
Okay,
well,
that
means
we
are
adjourned.
It
is
709
pm.
Thank
you
to
camille,
thank
you
to
the
staff
thanks
to
everybody
who
commented
part
of
the
public
comments,
so
we
will.
