Page 6 of 6 Budget Matrix: Legislative Performance Measures Background When a novel virus with pandemic potential emerges, nonpharmaceutical interventions, which will be called community mitigation strategies in this document, often are the most readily available interventions to help slow transmission of the virus in communities. Community mitigation is a set of actions that persons and communities can take to help slow the spread of respiratory virus infections. Community mitigation is especially important before a vaccine or drug becomes widely available. The following is a framework for actions which local and state health departments can recommend in thew community to both prepare for and mitigate community transmission of COVID-19 in the United States. Selection and implementation of these actions should be guided by the local characteristics of disease transmission, demographics, and public health and healthcare system capacity. Goals The goals for using mitigation strategies in communities with local COVID-19 transmission are to slow the transmission of disease and in particular to protect: • Individuals at increased risk for severe illness, including older adults and persons of any age with underlying health conditions (See Appendix A) The healthcare and critical infrastructure workforces These approaches are used to minimize morbidity and mortality and the social and economic impacts of COVID-19. Individuals, communities, businesses, and healthcare organizations are all part of a community mitigation strategy. These strategies should be implemented to prepare for and when there is evidence of community transmission. Signals of ongoing community transmission may include detection of confirmed cases of COVID-19 with no epidemiologic link to travelers or known cases, or more than three generations of transmission. Implementation is based on: • Emphasizing individual responsibility for implementing recommended personal -level actions • Empowering businesses, schools, and community organizations to implement recommended actions, particularly in ways that protect persons at increased risk of severe illness • Focusing on settings that provide critical infrastructure or services to individuals at increased risk of severe illness • Minimizing disruptions to daily life to the extent possible a nsnea avla n Guiding principles • Each community is unique, and appropriate mitigation strategies will vary based on the level of community transmission, characteristics of the community and their populations, and the local capacity to implement strategies (Table 1). • Consider all aspects of a community that might be impacted, including populations most vulnerable to severe illness and those that may be more impacted socially or economically, and select appropriate actions. • Mitigation strategies can be scaled up or down depending on the evolving local situation. • When developing mitigation plans, communities should identify ways to ensure the safety and social well-being of groups that may be especially impacted by mitigation strategies, including individuals at increased risk for severe illness. • Activation of community emergency plans is critical for the implementation of mitigation strategies. These plans may provide additional authorities and coordination needed for interventions to be implemented (Table 2). • Activities in Table 2 maybe implemented at any time regardless of the level of community transmission based on guidance on from local and state health officials. • The level of activities implemented may vary across the settings described in Table 2 (e.g., they may be at a minimal/ moderate level for one setting and at a substantial level for another setting in order to meet community response needs). • Depending on the level of community spread, local and state public health departments may need to implement mitigation strategies for public health functions to identify rases and conduct contact tracing (Table 3). When applied, community mitigation efforts may help fadlitate public health activities likecontactttracing --- --- u Table 1. Local Factors to Consider for Determining Mitigation Strategies Epidemiology • Level of community transmission (seeTable 3) • Number and type of outbreaks (e.g., nursing homes, schools, etc.) • Impact of the outbreaks on delivery of healthcare or other critical infrastructure or services • Epidemiology in surrounding jurisdictions Community • Size of community and population density Characteristics . Level of community engagement/support • Size and characteristics of vulnerable populations • Access to healthcare • Transportation (e.g., public, walking) • Planned large events • Relationship of community to other communities (e.g., transportation hub, tourist destination, etc.) Healthcare capacity • Healthcare workforce • Number of healthcare facilities (including ancillary healthcare facilities) • Testing capacity • Intensive care capacity • Availability of personal protective equipment(PPE) Public health capacity • Public health workforce and availability of resources to Implement strategies • Available support from other state/local government agencies and partner organizations N � L y O N •�-� O Y W r w G u C an d C E N r N N a.. u c E n vi 0 "' Y m O. a J io o E D > m d G N a r u .axr 3 0 L E c Y E o 3 o- N o 0 o p' = `a N d o ,a �+ i s c o N E >. ,C C C C d d L 7 N c N u a s a u c « •H c o ; m N O v o c 8 a d o+ a �c O m L > d a 0 d t o o a u N o T .k c m o a M v c _rn v z o > m g a .x .ac m N Q E'a L 7. >.a .0 a+ >i C �n u a N+ C V 'O L O1 O C m 0 o> ov v"mi iv m E E Soy co��-'�° ` �' poi m nv u'9 °i d9 m u oL i'i c u M T � d E T o+ N C O C T a > V O a d 3 c u n E N C d O d O O ry C O o c > n E `o d C N a D m E N S c `c co v „ L o —y N> E d N � N N m T Ol E T a a q O C O O N C N N C d C p C O C -O •O W� C C m C L o n 00 v a E v v S N rn w N � L y O N •�-� O Y W r w G u C an d C E N r N N a.. u c E n vi 0 "' Y m O. a J io o E D > m d G N a r u .axr 3 0 L E c Y E o 3 o- N o 0 o p' = `a N d o ,a �+ i s c o N E >. ,C C C C d d L 7 N c N u a s a u c « •H c o ; m N O v o c 8 a d o+ a �c O m L > d a 0 d t o o a u N o T .k c m o a M v c _rn v z o > m g a .x .ac m N Q E'a L 7. >.a .0 a+ >i C �n u a N+ C V 'O L O1 O C m 0 o> ov v"mi iv m E E Soy co��-'�° ` �' poi m nv u'9 °i d9 m u oL i'i c u M T � d E T y c o — x > - - Lm t a E E a d 3 c u n E u 77 v 0 'n v c ti � > a a �' a N `-° R� ''` a •o m a °1 E o a > o N O p OV 'n a w EC ay a i EC omv oCw=' yicwc w.3 N `w E?

Potential mitigation strategies for public health functions None/minimal Evidence of isolated cases or limited community transmission, case investigations underway, no evidence of exposure in large communal setting, e.g., healthcare facility, school, mass • Continue contact tracing, monitor and observe contacts as advised in guidance to maximize containment around cases. • Isolation of confirmed COVID-19 cases until no longer considered infectious according to guidance. • For asymptomatic close contacts exposed to a confirmed COVID-19 case, consideration of movement restrictions based on risk level, social distancing. • Monitoring close contacts should be done byjurisdictions to the extent feasible based on local priorities and resources. • Encourage HCP to develop phone triage and telemedicine practices. • Test individuals with signs and symptoms compatible with COVID-19. • Determine methods to streamline contact tracing through simplified data collection and surge if needed (resources including staffing through colleges and other first responders, technology etc.). Moderate Widespread and/or sustained transmission with high likelihood or confirmed exposure within communal settings with potential for rapid increase in suspected cases. May reduce contact tracing if resources dictate, prioritizing to those in high-risk settings (e.g., healthcare professionals or high-risk settings based on vulnerable populations or critical infrastructure). • Encourage HCP to more strictly Implement phone triage and telemedicine practices. • Continue COVID-19 testing of symptomatic persons; however, if testing capacity limited, prioritize testing of high-risk individuals. Substantial Large scale community transmission, I healthcare staffing significantly impacted, multiple cases within communal settings like healthcare facilities, schools, mass gatherings etc. May reduce contact tracing if resources dictate, prioritizing to those in high-risk settings (e.g., healthcare professionals or high-risk settings based on vulnerable populations or critical infrastructure). • Encourage HCP to more strictly implement phone triage and telemedicine practices. • Continue COVID-19 testing of symptomatic persons; however, if testing capacity limited, prioritize testing of high-risk individuals. Appendix A: Underlying medical conditions that may increase the risk of serious COVID-19 for individuals of any age. • Blood disorders (e.g., sickle cell disease or on blood thinners) • Chronic kidney disease as defined by your doctor.

To this end, administrators, teachers and staff are developing a temporary honteschool education plan in order to maintain continuity of instruction. In the meantime, the District is engaging precautionary protocols and procedures in order to reduce virus transmission among students and staff. Maintaining cleanliness for health is our primary concern. The School District will employ the following measures: • Reteach and establish regular handwashing schedules for students and staff members. o KIBSD recommends hand washing at least three limes per day. • Reteach and practice the correct use of tissues and disposal. • Reteach and practice coughing and sneezing protocols. • Reduce or eliminate classroom activities that require shared objects and regularly clean objects that have had multiple student contacts. o All lunchroom PIN codes shall be entered by a staff member, rather than the students. • Reduce or eliminate non-essential, multi -class activities during the school day. • Reduce or eliminate food -sharing. • Students and staff shall stay (tome if they are sick: o fever— 100 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. Remember that a child must be fever free for 24 hours WITHOUT the use of fever -reducing medication before returning to school. o Fever with Cough — a fever of over 100 degrees Fahrenheit plus a cough could indicate a virus that needs attention from a medical provider. Please call your healthcare provider. o Shortness of Breath —difficulty breathing especially if it affects talking or walking, feeling of tightness in the chest, wheezing, blue/dusky color around lips or beds of nails. This could be serious, please call your healthcare provider or 911. o Eyes — thick with mucus, pus draining, pink eye. With pink eye you may see white or yellow discharge, matted eyelids after sleep, eye pain and/or redness. o Chronic Cough and/or green nasal discharge — These conditions may be contagious and require treatment. o Sore throat —especially with fever or swollen glands in the neck. Willi Strep throat, the child may return to school after 24 hours on antibiotics. o Diarrhea — three or more watery stools in a 24 hour period. o Vomiting —two or more times in a 24 hour period. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your building principal. Sincerely, Larry Le a Superintendent Kodiak Island Borough School District 722 Mill Bay Road Kodiak, Alaska 99615 March 6, 2020 Dear Parents and Guardians, For the past several weeks, our school district, as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and state and local health agencies have been closely monitoring the impact and spread of the Coronavirus and its related illness, COVID-19. The primary guidance of these major state and health organizations is to remain vigilant in our efforts to limit and contain the spread of this illness. At this time, there are no reported cases in Kodiak, nor in the state of Alaska. It is my intent for our district to take a proactive approach in our efforts to respond to the risk of Coronavirus reaching our community and schools. Students as well as staff receive several reminders daily to engage in thorough handwashing, and posters demonstrating proper handwashing steps have been posted in every bathroom around the district. Teachers have been directed to increase social distance between students in classrooms, and cleaning staff have been instructed to increase their sanitization process each day. As another measure of preparedness, administrators, teachers and staff are actively preparing contingency plans, including a plan for delivering distance learning to students in the event of a school closure. In order to provide training for staff in the event that we must move to a distance learning program, the district will be having early release on Wednesday. March I I" and Thursday. March 12". We realize that this may be an inconvenience for our families, but we believe that the rapid developments related to COVID-19 evidence the need for preparation. We certainly hope that this is not the case. Questions have been asked as to what might cause a school closure to take place. Please note that any decision to close schools would be made in conjunction with Dr. Anne Zink, the State's Chief Medical Officer, and local health officials. Should the State's recommendation indicate that closure becomes necessary, the School District will strive to release timely information, and maintain communication, via our website, Facebook, One Call, and direct email. We ask that our families engage in the preparedness and prevention efforts alongside our staff. Please take the time to review and practice proper handwashing and flu hygiene with your student. Teach the importance of covering both mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, either by using their arm or a tissue. Wherever possible, consider limiting non-essential group activities and activities that require the use of shared objects, and regularly clean objects that have had multiple person-to-person contact. If your child is experiencing any of the following symptoms, please keep them home from school: • Fever: Oral temperature at or above 100.4 F - If your child has a fever, please do not send him/ her back to school until he/she has been fever -free (without the use of fever -reducing medication) for at least 24 hours. This is very important in controlling the spread of flu and flu-like viral illnesses. • Vomiting • Diarrhea • Severe Cough • Rash of unknown origin Kodiak Island Borough School District 722 Mill Bay Road Kodiak, Alaska 99615 As the circumstances surrounding the Coronavirus and COV ID -19 rapidly develop and change in the days and weeks ahead, we encourage you to keep informed. In addition to our District webpage, which now features a link specific to coronavirus information, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provides regular, daily updates on this issue, both nationally and globally.

It is our sincere hope that the precautions we are taking will never prove necessary. Sincere!X, Larry LeDoux Superintendent Kodiak Island Borough School District 722 Mill Bay Road Kodiak, Alaska 99615 KIBSD Illness Procedure Update Dear Parent or Guardian, The State of Alaska Section of Epidemiology is advising school districts to track student and staff absences and report increases in absenteeism due to respiratory symptoms and fever. Please be advised that KIBSD will be very strict with our illness procedures to minimize the potential spread of illness among students and staff. KIBSD will also be initiating two NEW procedures to assess students returning to school who have been absent due to sickness. NEW KIBSD Procedures: 1) Secretaries and School Nurses will gather more information from parents when they call to report the reason for absence. Office staff will ask if your child has/ had a fever, cough, or respiratory symptoms as well as review recent travel in your household. 2) When students return to school after an absence related to sickness, the school nurse will assess students before they return to class to verify their temperature is within normal limits and review symptoms. Please review our existing illness procedures: • Fever: Children must remain at home when they have a fever at or above 100.4 degrees F. They can return to school after being fever free for at least 24 hours without the use of fever -reducing medicine such as Tylenol or Motrin. • Diarrhea/Vomiting: A child with diarrhea and/or vomiting should stay home and return to school after being symptom-free and consulting with school personnel. • Rashes: Common infectious diseases with rashes are most contagious in the early stages. A child with a suspicious rash should return to school only after seeing a health care provider and having that provider's authorization. • Colds/ Sore Throat: A child with congestion and/or persistent cough should remain home. This is especially important for young children that cannot perform consistent hand hygiene or effectively cover their mouth when coughing/ sneezing. A child with a sore throat that is accompanied by a fever and/or swollen glands in the neck needs to stay home. A child diagnosed with strep throat by a healthcare provider may return to school after 24 hours on antibiotics. • Eyes: Children suffering from eye discharge and/or itchy, red eyes (not associated with allergies) should remain at home if they cannot keep their hands out and away from their eyes. If you have any questions, please contact your school nurse or building administrator. Sincerely, 417 Larry LeDoux, Superintendent KIBSD Guidelines for Wearing Face Masks Dear Parents and Staff, With rising concerns about the spread of germs and infection prevention, KIBSD would like to review the guidelines for wearing face masks at school. We ask all families to please follow the recommendations' of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for using a facemask. • CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a facemask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID-19. • Facemasks should be used by people who show symptoms of COVID-19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others. The use of facemasks Is also crucial for health workers and people who are taking care of someone in close settings (at home or In a health care facility). The World Health Organization (WHO)' recommends the use of masks only in specific cases: • If you have a cough, fever, and difficulty breathing, you should wear a mask and seek medical care. If you do not have these symptoms, you do not have to wear masks because there is no evidence that they protect people who are not sick. • If you are healthy but you are taking care of a person who may be infected with the new coronavirus then you should wear a mask whenever you are in the same room with that person. We ask that you do not send your child to school with a face mask, as children are not trained to use and dispose of face masks properly. The U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams warns that you may increase your risk of infection if facemasks are not worn properly. Individuals who do not know how to wear masks correctly tend to touch their faces more frequently, which can increase the spread of germs. Face masks can be hot and uncomfortable and will be distracting to both the child wearing it and other classmates at school. If your child has any symptoms that warrant him or her wearing a mask as outlined above by the CDC/ WHO, your child should remain at home and follow-up with a medical provider. If you are concerned about keeping your child safe, you may choose to keep them home from school. In this case, please contact your child's school, and their absence will be excused. If you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact your school nurse or school administrator.

The person was "a foreign national individual who was transiting through" the Anchorage international airport, said Dr. Anne Zink, Alaska's chief medical officer. "This is an isolated case" that officials believe they can contain, she said. The person, who was identified only as a male, had traveled to Alaska in the past 48 hours, she said. The person had not been interacting extensively in the community, she said. She declined to say whether the person had been on a commercial, cargo or private plane. He was treated at Alaska Regional Hospital and discharged, said Dr. peri Gardner, chief medical officer from the hospital. She described his condition as "stable," "doing quite well," and not in a life-threatening situation. They are now in Isolation in Anchorage, though officials declined to provide details about that. Zink described the person as an adult who was otherwise in good health, but officials declined to provide other details, including where he was from, their age, and where in the city he had gone. The person self -isolated as soon as he began experiencing symptoms and asked to be tested, she said. "They had been watching themselves because they knew they were an international traveler," Zink said. "And as soon as they started to develop some symptoms that were concerning including a fever they called and made appropriate https://www.adn.com/alaska-news/2020/03/l3/first-positive-alaska-coronavirus-case-Identified/ Page 1 of 2 First positive Alaska coronavirus case Identified - Anchorage Daily News arrangements to be tested ... From what we're hearing from this patient, they did an amazing job of self -isolating." Epidemiologists are documenting the person's travel history and who they had contact with, she said. The case was identified on Thursday afternoon, Gov. Mike Dunleavy said. "This just happened a couple hours ago," he said. Dunleavy said Alaskans should expect more cases. "This is not a surprise," he said. "We expect more positives: Nationwide, confirmed case numbers continued their ascent, with 1,215 confirmed cases and 36 deaths from the diseases, the CDC reported Thursday. The symptoms of COVID-19 include shortness of breath, fever and cough. An outbreak of the novel coronavitus, a virus known as SAR-CoV-2 which causes COVID-19, began in Wuhan, China but has since spread to several countries worldwide. If you are sick, the CDC recommends you stay home and call your health care provider to describe the symptoms you might be experiencing. This Is a developing story. Check back for updates.

BY ERIC HOLDEMAN / FEBRUARY 20, 2014 Each disaster will be unique, but common threads will run through each. Knowing the types of hazards that could impact your community will, however, aid you in preparing for those emergencies or disasters. Steps elected and senior officials should take prior to a disaster include: 1. Familiarize yourself with Local/State Statutes. This not only outlines your responsibilities, but it also outlines additional powers that you will have during a disaster. 2. Review emergency ordinances to ensure they are adequate. Define emergency powers and add a provision for declaring a local/county state of emergency. 3. Integrate emergency management into all departments that may be called upon to respond to provide support during a disaster. 4. Ensure that your community's comprehensive emergency management/operations plan is current and compliant with the National Incident Management System (NIMS). 5. Know what your responsibilities are and participate in disaster drills/exercises. 6. Develop and support the establishment of an Emergency Operations Center (EOC). 7. Develop or maintain a Continuity of Operations/Continuity of Government Plan (COOP/COG). In the private sector, this would be similar to a Business Continuity Plan. 8. As a part of your COOP/COG plan, identify alternate facilities in which to operate out of in the event that your primary facilities are damaged or in an evacuation zone. These alternate facilities may be in another jurisdiction if necessary. 9. Develop a community-based mitigation process to implement a hazard mitigation plan. This is critical for receiving hazard mitigation funds after a disaster occurs. lo. Develop mutual aid agreements with other agencies and jurisdictions. 11. Foster the creation of a Long Term Recovery Committee to plan and guide local recovery issues. Steps elected and senior officials should take during a disaster include: 1. Maintain a presence in the EOC. 2. Consider the need for issuing an emergency declaration or proclamation. This can help position your community to receive additional state and federal assistance. g. Understand the incident objectives, provide visible leadership and set policy. 4. Exercise sound reasonable judgment and make decisions with appreciation of legal considerations. Follow your unique standard of care. 5. Prioritize resources. 6. Communicate to the public the nature of event, status of community response, and what individuals should do. 7. Utilize mutual aid with neighboring jurisdictions. 8. Promote the timely completion of Preliminary Damage Assessments by individuals and businesses. 9. Document, Document, Document! Steps elected and senior officials should take after a disaster include: Tour damaged areas and meet with impacted residents. z. Develop a recovery plan and work with state and federal agencies to secure recovery funds. 3. During the recovery process, consider mitigation projects which could lessen or preventfuture damage. 4. Work with the Long Term Recovery Committee to address long term needs for survivors. 5. Participate in `after action' reviews/critiques. Emergency management is like an insurance policy. You hope that you will never have to use but when you do, you want the assurance that it will be there. If elected and senior officials do not put the time in on the front end, they will spend ten times more on the back end trying to understand and deal with the ramifications of not being prepared.
