This guidance provides critical infection prevention and control considerations for these sites, and is intended to supplement existing plans (created by jurisdictions as part of pandemic planning). Read the guidance.

New MMWR Article: Community Mitigation Strategies During COVID-19 Response
Implementing community mitigation strategies during a pandemic—including personal protective measures, social distancing, and environmental cleaning in community settings—can slow the spread of infections. Investigators found that community mobility (a proxy measure for social distancing) in the metropolitan areas of Seattle, San Francisco, New York City, and New Orleans declined with each community mitigation policy issued and as case counts increased. This information could be used to inform other communities’ mitigation strategies during COVID-19. Read the MMWR article.
