Hi
everybody
thank
you
for
joining
us,
I'm
larry
little.
My
colleague
todd
is
here
in
just
a
few
moments.
We're
going
to
be
answering
some
of
your
questions
around
testing,
also
providing
an
update
on
what
you
can
expect
when
visiting
a
pop-up
testing
location
here
in
santa
clara
county,
but
first
want
to
let
you
know
that
we
have
removed
our
faith
coverings,
so
everyone,
including
the
american
sign
language
interpreters,
can
clearly
understand
and
communicate
the
information
that
we
will
be
sharing
this
morning.
Todd
thanks
for
being
here
as.
B
Want
to
get
right
to
it
as
far
as
the
pop-up
locations,
there
have
been
some
changes
at
those
pop-up
locations
and
we
want
to
make
it
clear
because
I
know
a
lot
of
times
when
information
starts
in
mountain
view,
it's
one
story
and
when
it
makes
it
to
morgan
hill,
it's
a
totally
different
story.
So
we
want
to
say:
testing
is
still.
Free.
B
C
Yeah,
so
I
think
the
big
change
right
now
is
that
the
county
has
started
to
allow
people
to
self-report
whether
they
have
insurance
or
not.
So
it
just
allows
us
to
kind
of
keep
better
metrics
and
record
to
see
how
many
people
are
actually
coming
to
our
sites
that
may
have
other
providers
out
there
in
the
county
so
that
we
can
keep
track
of
that.
Obviously,
but
yeah.
C
I
just
want
to
reiterate
what
larry
had
said
as
well,
that
we
are
still
not
charging
people
for
their
tests,
we're
not
turning
people
away
necessarily
because
they
have
insurance.
So
please
continue
to
utilize
those
sites
appropriately,
don't
be
turned
off
by
the
fact
that
you
may
be
able
to
provide
our
staff.
The
fact
that
you
haven't
you
actually
have
insurance
as
well.
C
C
B
C
At
this
time,
no
it's
still
consistent
with
who
should
be
tested
and
those
individuals
are
the
ones
that
are
symptomatic,
others
that
are
within
close
contact
of
somebody
who
is
symptomatic,
as
well
as
those
who
are
considered
front-line
workers
and
that
have
high
risk
to
being
exposed
to
coven
19,
like
our
restaurant
workers,
like
our
pharmacy
techs,
like
our
our
our
public
safety
division,
firemen,
police
officers
and
so
forth.
So
they
should
be
getting
tested
yeah
because
they
are
a
very
high
risk
field.
B
C
Thank
you
because
we're
getting
a
lot
of
businesses
contacting
us
kind
of
really
trying
to
determine
what
they
should
be
doing
if
they
have
a
positive
case.
So
if
you
have
tested
positive
or
you're
symptomatic
well,
let's
back
up
first,
if
you're
symptomatic,
you
should
not
go
to
work
and
you
should
quarantine
for
at
least
10
days
and
ensure
that
you
have
at
least
three
days
without
symptoms,
meaning
that
say,
I
have
a
fever
for
three
days
on
my
first
day
of
exhibiting
a
fever,
I
stay
home.
C
Well,
I
have
that
fever
for
four
more
days
and
finally,
on
that
fourth
day,
it
breaks.
So
if
I
do
not
have
a
fever
or
any
other
symptoms
after
that
day,
that
would
constitute
your
three
days
of
not
having
symptoms.
So
at
the
end
of
that
initial
10
days,
you
would
be
eligible
to
go
back
to
work
and
as
we're
always
encouraging
people
who
are
symptomatic,
please
get
tested
as
well.
C
Absolutely
great
question:
so
if
you
are
considered
a
close
contact,
which
is
someone
that
has
been
with
in
six
feet
for
at
least
15
minutes
of
a
confirmed
positive
case,
you
should
be
quarantining
at
home
for
at
least
14
days,
and
if
you
get
a
test-
and
it
still
comes
back
negative
because
we're
encouraging
people
who
are
close
contacts
to
get
tested
after
seven
days
from
that
exposure
to
the
person,
you
should
still
quarantine
for
that
14-day
period.
Even
if
that
test
comes
back
negative.
C
And
we
have
more
information
on
our
business
and
workplaces
website,
but
just
to
touch
on
a
couple
of
things.
The
actual
order
still
strongly
encourages
and
mandates
that
employers
maximize
the
number
of
staff
who
work
from
home.
Just
because
you
can
have
staff
going
to
the
office
and
the
workplace
doesn't
necessarily
mean
you
should
if
your
staff
can
work
from
home
effectively.
C
With
that
being
said,
if
there
is
a
positive
case,
they
must
notify
the
county
within
four
hours
of
finding
out
that
that
person
is
positive.
They
should
also
notify
those
individuals
at
the
job
site
who
are
considered
close
contacts
that
they
were
exposed,
and
they
should
go
home
and
quarantine
immediately.
C
They
should
also
close
down
those
work
areas
that
were
where
that
individual
was
working
and
clean
appropriately.
We
have
those
additional
guidelines
on
our
website,
as
well
as
making
sure
that
they
air
out
the
room
and
so
forth
and
to
make
sure
that
they
can
get
rid
of
as
much
code
as
they
possibly
can.
Yeah.
B
All
right
todd,
thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you.
Facebook

it

Well,

Just
be

let
them
know
about
