> Slide 1: How prepared is our state to test everyone who is symptomatic?
Positive tests could trigger notifications based on data collected by voluntary contact tracing apps. By only testing the symptomatic, mathematical models will continue to lack data for the subset of population that is already immune.
We also need to test asymptomatic cases that would benefit from therapeutics which work best in early stages. We need to avoid cases reaching late-stage, where e.g. > 80% of people on ventilators do not survive. The federal government has allowed pharmacies to administer tests, once these become available.
> Slide 5: Have we worked with businesses to support physical distancing practices and introduced guidelines to provide health checks when employees or the general public enter the premises?
Is this alternate A/B work days for employees to reduce building occupancy by 50%? Do "health checks" mean forehead or long-distance thermal sensor temperature measurements before employees (customers?) enter buildings?
> Slide 6: Do we have the ability to quickly communicate the need to reinstate these measures?
Existing SMS text messaging for government alerts. No need for dedicated/mandatory apps.
