Wasco County Commissioners held a virtual meeting Wednesday with public health and Mid-Columbia Medical Center officials, discussing preparations for re-opening of businesses as they await finalization of a plan from the Governor’s office.  County Administrator Tyler Stone says the Wasco-Sherman-Gilliam Unified Command for the COVID-19 pandemic is not waiting on the state guidelines to prepare for what will have to be done for a reopening, but work is on-going as they await word from the Governor’s office.  Personal protective equipment acquisition was once again one of the key concerns in moving toward a reopening, especially as medical offices are able to resume doing some elective procedures.  Mid-Columbia Medical Center CEO Dennis Knox said his facility is at a 30-day supply of PPE right now, but the difficulty is not having a supply chain they can trust.  North Central Public Health Director Teri Thalofer said PPE is an unknown given the amount private businesses might need to reopen.  She added they are awaiting guidance from the state on contract tracing needs…but that she can put that together once the standards are in place.
