COMTÉ DE SHELBY, TN - Le département de la santé du comté de Shelby publie aujourd'hui une directive révisée sur la santé n° 21 qui entrera en vigueur le 15 mai à minuit. Cette directive sanitaire révisée n°21 :

1)    Modifie l'âge d'éligibilité à 12 ans et plus pour le vaccin Pfizer ;

2)    Clarifie l'utilisation du masque pour se conformer aux directives du CDC publiées le 13 mai 2021.

« Ces révisions de Directive Santé n°21 étaient nécessaires pour aligner les directives du ministère de la Santé sur les dernières directives fournies par les Centers for Disease Control and Prevention », a déclaré le directeur intérimaire de la santé, le Dr La Sonya Hall. « Le département de la santé du comté de Shelby continuera d'aligner nos recommandations en matière de santé sur les conseils d'experts nationaux et locaux en santé publique et en médecine. »

Mercredi 12 mai 2021

COMTÉ DE SHELBY, TN - Les problèmes du département de la santé du comté de Shelby Directive Santé n°21 aujourd'hui pour entrer en vigueur le 15 mai à minuit. La directive sur la santé n° 21 est conçue pour être une directive à long terme qui équilibre les mesures de sécurité recommandées pour les particuliers et les entreprises avec des restrictions obligatoires considérablement réduites.

Principaux changements dans la Directive Santé n°21 :

  • Remplace la directive n° 5 sur les masques faciaux à la date d'entrée en vigueur de la directive 21 sur la santé (15 mai 2021), résultant en un document consolidé pour les informations liées à COVID
  • Fournit des conseils sur quand les masques ne doivent pas être portés, quand ils doivent être portés et quand ils sont fortement recommandés
  • Exige des masques pour certains employés qui travaillent dans des environnements où il y a un risque accru d'exposition
  • Permet aux entreprises, aux autorités scolaires et aux autorités publiques d'exiger des masques si des panneaux d'avertissement appropriés sont affichés aux entrées fréquemment utilisées
  • Réduit considérablement le nombre de restrictions obligatoires au profit d'orientations hautement recommandées
  • Permet aux organisateurs d'événements de grands festivals, foires, défilés, événements sportifs et événements communautaires de solliciter l'assistance technique du Ministère pour leur(s) plan(s) d'événement, mais le Ministère n'émettra pas d'« approbations » pour un événement pour le moment ; et
  • Permet aux écoles de demander l'assistance technique du Département pour leurs emplacements physiques, mais le Département n'émettra pas d'« approbations » de tout plan opérationnel lié à l'école

La dernière directive sur la santé indiquait: «Si le comté n'entre pas dans une troisième vague au cours des 30 prochains jours, la prochaine directive sur la santé fournira des conseils hautement recommandés sur le maintien de pratiques sûres pour les personnes et les entreprises qui ralentiront et mettront fin à la transmission de COVID 19, qui continue d'être une menace directe et mortelle pour les habitants du comté de Shelby. Plus vous et votre famille prenez de mesures pour empêcher la propagation du COVID-19, plus vous et les autres serez en sécurité. Encore une fois, veuillez noter que si le nombre de cas et d'autres indicateurs restent stables au cours des 30 prochains jours, la prochaine directive sanitaire, qui sera publiée en mai 2021, passera d'une approche obligatoire à une approche de recommandation. »

Les changements reflétés dans la directive sanitaire 21 peuvent être apportés à ce stade car les taux de cas du virus sont restés stables au cours des 30 derniers jours. À la mi-avril, lorsque la directive sanitaire 20 a été publiée, le taux moyen était d'environ 165 nouveaux cas par jour. Maintenant, cette moyenne est d'environ 135 cas par jour.

  • Élimine les restrictions de capacité pour les services de restauration mais exige que pour tous les repas intérieurs/extérieurs, les sièges soient séparés de 6 pieds et disposés de sorte que chaque personne assise à une table soit séparée de 6 pieds des autres personnes assises à une autre table
  • Les clients peuvent être assis et servir de la nourriture et des boissons dans un bar tant qu'il y a des sièges fixes pour les groupes de deux personnes maximum et que chaque ensemble de deux sièges est séparé de six pieds (et séparé de toute autre table de six pieds également). )
  • Les salons de cigares/narguilés auront les mêmes restrictions que les restaurants. Toutes les entreprises devraient interdire de fumer ou de vapoter à l'intérieur en raison du risque de transmission aérienne du virus. Tout tabagisme à l'intérieur autorisé doit être conforme à la loi du Tennessee sur les exigences en matière d'âge, d'heure et de lieu

Bien que le virus COVID-19 reste une menace, ces activités sont jugées autorisées maintenant car notre communauté a connu une transmission réduite du virus pendant une période de plus de 14 jours.

Le taux de reproduction virale dans le comté de Shelby est de 0,8, le plus bas depuis le début de la pandémie. Le nombre de cas a continué de baisser depuis début janvier. Les taux de positivité hebdomadaires des tests COVID-19 sont les plus bas depuis octobre.

The vaccination site is set to be operational beginning on Monday, February 1. The start date is tentative and will greatly depend on the number of vaccines that the Health Department receives from the State of Tennessee.

“Staff has worked round the clock for weeks to put a plan in place that allows Germantown and Collierville to be a part of the solution and to help put an end to the pandemic that continues to impact the health of our businesses and neighbors,” said Germantown City Administrator Patrick Lawton.

An additional announcement will be made once there is a final decision regarding an operation schedule.

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - The Shelby County Health Department would like to get your feedback about what you know about COVID-19 and your attitudes about wearing masks and being vaccinated against the virus.

This survey is completely anonymous and will only take about 5 minutes to complete. Please click the link below in your preferred language to go to the survey Website (or copy and paste the link into your Internet browser).

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) originally set a 14-day quarantine period for COVID-19 based on estimates of the upper bounds of the virus’ incubation period. Since that time, research indicates that more than 90% of exposed persons who go on to develop COVID-19 illness develop symptoms within 10 days of exposure. For that reason the CDC has revised its guidance to allow for a shorter quarantine period under the following conditions:

  • Quarantine can end after Day 10 of exposure without testing and if no symptoms have been reported during daily monitoring
  • In some cases, quarantine can end after Day 7 of exposure, if a diagnostic specimen tests negative for the SARS-CoV-2 virus and if no symptoms were reported during daily monitoring, but quarantine cannot be discontinued earlier than after Day 7
  • In both cases, the quarantined subject must continue to :

      /li>

    • Wear a mask when around others
    • Observe social distancing through Day 14 of exposure

Those organizations and institutions that partner with the Health Department in workplace and schoolbased contact tracing should incorporate this new guidance into their current policies. Healthcare providers who partner with the Health Department to place patients in quarantine should also adhere to these policies and incorporate them into patient education materials.

Quarantine is a public health strategy used to separate someone who may have been exposed to an illness and who is still in a period of time when they can develop illness. Quarantine is used to prevent transmission in the event the exposed person develops the illness. Quarantine is an important measure to control the spread of COVID-19 because it has been demonstrated that persons may spread the virus before they develop symptoms, and others may spread the virus without experiencing any symptoms.

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - The Shelby County Health Department is offering free flu vaccinations at no charge during a special statewide “FightFluTN 2020” vaccination event on Thursday, November 19, 2020. The influenza vaccine will be offered at no charge at two locations in Shelby County during the hours of 1 :30 p.m. and 4 :30 p.m. No appointment is needed. Below are the locations offering FREE flu vaccinations. Both sites are also COVID-19 testing sites and will offer free COVID-19 testing as well as free flu vaccinations.

  • Lamar Emissions Station1720 RKS Commercial CoveMemphis, TN 38114
  • Millington Public Health Clinic8225 Highway 51 NorthMillington, TN 38053

Flu vaccination is more important than ever this year, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. It is possible to get the flu and COVID-19 at the same time, and that may increase the risk of severe illness. The flu vaccine will not protect you against COVID-19, but it is the best protection we have against seasonal influenza. High rates of flu vaccination that will also reduce the burden of flu-related illnesses, hospitalizations and deaths on the health care system and conserve medical resources for the care of people with COVID-19.

Annual vaccination against influenza is recommended for everyone six months and older, and is especially recommended for the following individuals:

  • People 65 years and older
  • Pregnant women
  • Children age 5 and younger
  • People of any age with chronic medical conditions, including asthma and other lung diseases, heart disease, kidney disease and diabetes
  • People who live in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities
  • People who care for those at high risk for complications from influenza, including :
    • Health care workers
    • Household contact of persons at high risk for complications from influenza
    • Household contacts and caregivers of children less than six months of age

The flu vaccine contains inactivated virus, so it cannot cause flu illness. Side effects from the vaccination are usually short-term and mild, and may include soreness at the injection site, lowgrade fever, and body aches. In addition to the flu vaccine, the Shelby County Health Department recommends to following measures to slow the spread of flu virus in our community :

  • If you are sick with a flu-like illness, stay home. Those with flu-like symptoms should not get a flu vaccine; however, they can and should be tested for COVID-19
  • Cover your nose and mouth with tissue when you cough or sneeze. After using the tissue, throw it in the trash and wash your hands
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water. Use alcohol-based hand sanitizers if soap and water are not available
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way
  • Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with viruses thatcause flu

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - Many Shelby County families are planning for the upcoming holiday season, beginning with Halloween. The Shelby County Health Department is sharing information based upon guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how to take part in Halloween celebrations in ways that reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19.

Traditionally, the Town of Collierville does not regulate a trick-or-treating schedule. October 31 is the date of Halloween and will be observed on this date. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Town asks residents to follow these recommendations to allow Halloween celebrations to continue in ways that reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19.

Halloween Activities:

NOT Permitted - Gatherings and events that are not allowed under the current Health Directive :

  • Festivals, fairs, parades, large-scale sporting events and large-scale community events unless the Department has approved a site-specific plan for the event

Some Halloween traditions are fun, but may increase the risk of exposure to COVID-19. Trick-or-treating may present a risk because it may be difficult for children to maintain social distancing. Trick-or-treating may be made safer by :

  • Avoiding direct contact with trick-or-treaters
  • Giving out treats outdoors, if possible
  • Setting up a station with individually bagged treats for kids to pick up
  • Washing hands before handling treats
  • Wearing a mask

“Trunk-or-treating” where children go from car to car instead of door to door to receive treats poses similar risk to children if they do not maintain recommended social distancing. Following the recommendations listed above may make trunk-or-treating safer.

Safer Alternatives:

Below are some safer alternatives to traditional Halloween celebrations that reduce the risk of contracting or spreading COVID-19.

  • Online parties/contests (i.e. costume or pumpkin carving)
  • Drive-by events, including events where individual participants remain in their vehicles
  • Halloween movie nights at drive-in theaters that meet the requirements of the current Health Directive
  • Decorating homes and yards with Halloween-themed decorations
  • Outdoor activities are safer than indoor activities

Personal Protection Measures:

  • If you are sick or have been in contact with someone who is sick with COVID-19, stay home and away from others and seek testing
  • Correctly wear a cloth facial covering to prevent disease spread. Wear a cloth mask with two or more layers over the nose and mouth and secure it under the chin
  • Avoid confined spaces – Actively avoid indoor spaces that don’t allow for easy distancing of at least six feet between yourself and others
  • Avoid close contact – Stay at least six feet away from all other people who are not part of your own household, especially when talking, eating and drinking
  • Wash or sanitize your hands often
  • Clean frequently touched items regularly

Wednesday, October 14, 2020

COLLIERVILLE, TN - As of today, October 14, 2020, there are four (4) confirmed COVID-19 cases in the Collierville Fire Department (CFD). The employees are on various shifts, and work at different firehouses. These employees are quarantined, per CDC and Shelby County Health Department Guidelines. Personnel can sufficiently cover the shifts of the quarantined employees and are staffed to continue normal business operations.

Since the beginning of the pandemic in March, CFD has followed all CDC and Shelby County Health Department guidelines. CFD closed  fire stations to the general public. They monitored employees as they come to work with temperature checks. Employees are required to wear masks, practice social distancing, and decontaminate fire houses, equipment and apparatuses twice a shift - every morning and night. Personnel are given sufficient PPE and are taking all precautions when they are going out on all dispatched calls. After every COVID-19 call, personnel are required to take further decontamination steps with showers and a change of uniform.

"Our emergency responders have been working extremely hard to serve the community while keeping themselves safe. Our thoughts and prayers are with our employees and their families, and we are hopeful that everyone will safely recover." - Mark King, Chief of Administration, Collierville Fire Department

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - The latest health directive from the Shelby County Health Department was issued today and adds an Improvements/Set Backs and Responses chart that shows “tripwires” for re-openings and shutdowns. The Health Department will continue to share information about testing capacity, hospital capacity, and public health capacity with the mayors and other medical partners because those “responses” involve actions required by the health department and/or governmental partners.

Substantive changes in the new health directive :

  1. Improvements/Set Backs and Responses chart added to show "tripwires" for reopenings/shutdowns

SHELBY COUNTY, TN - Over the weekend, the newest health directive from the Shelby County Health Department went into effect. So, what has changed?

In summary, it has some substantive changes from the previous Health Directive regarding :

Further guidance for individuals and employers.

  1. Further limiting risk behaviors in bars and restaurants (please see below for additional background on risk behaviors associated with bars)
  2. Providing guidance for schools (including colleges and universities).
  1. Individuals and employers are required to report positive test results to the Health Department. Further, the Directive provides link to current guidance for individuals/employees on staying home when they are sick and for employers on providing a safe environment if an employee tests positive for COVID-19
  2. Restaurants:
    • Pick-up/delivery/drive-thru service for alcoholic beverages must end at 10 pm
    • Any full-service restaurant that has a gross annual revenue from the sale of prepared food that is 50% or less than the gross annual revenue from the sale of alcoholic beverages must close regardless of their licensure (this is to address concerns that some establishments on Beale Street are operating as bars). In the event the health department receives a complaint that an establishment does not meet this threshold, they would be required to provide 1) the most recent sales numbers that were provided to the Commission for license renewals or sales number for year-to-date sales and 2) a “food affidavit” by an owner of the establishment attesting that the numbers submitted are correct
    • Full-service restaurants have these additional restrictions (in addition to what was already in place) :
      • There shall be no standing room or seating at a physical bar
      • Alcohol may only be served with food and to customers who are seated at a table
      • Food service at a table for each customer/group should not exceed two hours
      • Music (live or recorded) must be kept at a decibel level that permits regular conversation. In other words, the noise level should not be so great as to cause patrons to raise their voices to be heard
      • Dancing is not permitted at a restaurant
      • Club houses at golf courses, tennis courts, and other facilities if they qualify as a full-service restaurant under state law, must comply with these requirements as well
  3. Schools (including colleges) are referred to various sources of guidance/information on reopening procedures and safety precautions. The Health Department is not “approving” plans to reopen; it is only agreeing to review any plan and provide technical assistance (which can be in writing and/or a site visit)
