<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is a link to the web page that walks through the process for ordering masks (or other PPE) from the state.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://www.doh.wa.gov/AboutUs/ProgramsandServices/EmergencyPreparednessandResponse/PPEBackstop">PPE Backstop :: Washington State Department of Health</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">IHEs will likely need to make the request via their local governments—either the local emergency management agency or local health jurisdiction Here is the link to the contact info for Local Emergency Management
<a href="https://access.wa.gov/topics/emergency/resources/Contact/List.html">Access Washington - Emergency Contact Information by County</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is the link to the contact info for Local Health Jurisdiction
<a href="https://www.doh.wa.gov/AboutUs/PublicHealthSystem/LocalHealthJurisdictions">
Local Health Departments :: Washington State Department of Health</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Note: the state can direct ship to an IHE if the IHE and Local govt prefer, we just need the request to come in through this system.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regarding the at-home tests, at this time, we do not have supplies to allocate or make large distributions to any groups beyond the groups and mechanisms called out in the governor’s press briefing:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l4 level1 lfo3">K-12 schools<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l4 level1 lfo3">Local Health/Tribes and their community partners<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l4 level1 lfo3">The Public Portal<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are continually trying to procure more tests, but the supply chain is very strained and the demand for tests continues to be very high.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, students/staff of IHEs CAN use the public portal to order a test kit. We expect this to go live within a few days. Also, they can use the federal site
<a href="https://www.covidtests.gov/">COVIDtests.gov - Free at-home COVID-19 tests</a> which is already live<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We are in the process of updating our various guidance docs but this is going to take a few days (including over the weekend) and CDC issued another update earlier this week. We are connecting with Local Public Health on this tomorrow,
but our tentative recommendation is that IHEs follow the general public recommendations, given that CDC essentially recommended that K-12 schools do so. More to come.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Masks or other PPE should be requested through the typical process, which is through local emergency management or public health to the state. Meaning, community colleges, universities, etc should contact their local emergency management
or public health department to request supplies. I asked our team to get some instructions for how to do this to share (many community orgs, hopsitals, etc already know). Using this process is necessary because of the way the supplies were procured and paid
for.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tests can be requested directly from DOH for those IHEs that have been requesting them. Please note: at this time, only a small portion of the at-home tests are actually here. I am aware there is a question pending about IHEs having access
longer term and we’ll work through that. We have other testing supplies available, including rapid point of care tests.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I understand people are wanting clarity and information as soon as possible. We are working towards that<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">I had a chance to watch today’s press conference with Governor Inslee where he noted the 1 million COVID-19 tests that will be sent to K-12 schools, which will
also receive a sizable number of the 10 million available masks (also noted below).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">As you know, college students are a highly mobile population. Is it possible for the community colleges and universities to receive some of the additional masks
and tests? Is there a process to make a formal request? I know that they would be well utilized on campuses across our state as they continue to serve many students in person.
