COVID-19 Overview and Infection Prevention and Control Priorities in non-U.S. Healthcare Settings | CDC
Healthcare workers should be trained on the correct use of PPE, including how to put it on and remove it. Extended use and re-use of certain PPE items such as masks and gowns can be considered when there are supply shortages. Healthcare workers should:

Use a medical mask (at least a surgical/medical mask)
Wear eye protection (goggles) or facial protection (face shield)
Wear a clean, non-sterile, long-sleeve gown
Use gloves

There is a higher risk of self-contamination when removing PPE. Please see instructions for putting on and removing PPE [2.9 MB, 3 pages] for guidance.
For healthcare workers performing any of the following aerosol generating procedures on patients with COVID-19, it is recommended that a fitted respirator mask (surgical N95 respirators, FFP2 or equivalent) is used as opposed to surgical/medical masks. In addition to wearing a fitted respirator mask, healthcare workers should also wear appropriate PPE, including gloves, a gown and eye protection.
Although there is a difference in determination on which procedures generate infectious aerosol, the current WHO list of Aerosol Generating Procedures includes:1

Endotracheal intubation
Bronchoscopy
Non-invasive ventilation
Tracheotomy
Manual ventilation before intubation
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Sputum induction
Dentistry and autopsy procedures

Shop Smart | MyPlate
Types of whole grains include whole wheat, brown rice, bulgur, buckwheat, oatmeal, whole-grain cornmeal, whole oats, and whole rye.
While shopping, check ingredient lists and pick the items that have a whole grain listed first.
Rice and pasta are budget-friendly grain options.
Choose hot cereals like plain oatmeal or whole-grain dry cereal.
Try new whole-grain snack ideas, like switching to whole-wheat crackers or popping your own popcorn.

 
 Protein Foods

 

Find protein foods throughout the entire store. They can be found in the fresh meat section, frozen foods section, dairy section, and canned and pantry food aisles.

Some low-cost protein foods include beans, peas, and lentils such as kidney beans, lima beans, split peas, and garbanzo beans (chickpeas).
Beans, peas, and lentils cost less than a similar amount of other protein foods.
To lower meat costs, buy the family-sized or value pack and freeze what you don't use.
Choose lean meats like chicken or turkey. When choosing ground beef, make sure it's lean (at least 93% lean/fat-free) ground beef.
Seafood doesn’t have to cost a lot. Try buying canned tuna, salmon, or sardines. These items store well and are a low-cost option.
Don’t forget about eggs! They’re a great low-cost option that’s easy to make.

 
 Dairy

 

Find dairy foods in the refrigerated and pantry aisles.

Choose low-fat or fat-free milk. These have just as much calcium, but fewer calories than whole and 2% milk.
Buy the larger size of low-fat plain yogurt instead of single flavored yogurt. Then add your own flavors by mixing in fruits.
Choose cheese products with "reduced fat," or "low-fat" on the label.
Check the sell-by date to make sure you're buying the freshest products.

 
 Other

 

Drink water instead of sodas or other high-sugar drinks. Water is easy on your wallet and has zero calories.

Earthquake Safety	

Be PreparedAre you prepared for a major earthquake? What will you do when one occurs? While the potential earthquake hazards you may experience depend upon your location, everywhere in California is considered at high risk compared to the rest of the country. There are a multitude of reasons you may or may not have prepared yourself, your home, or business for the occurrence of an earthquake. But you need to take the time to do it now.Safety TipsThe Monterey Park Fire Department provides the following information to inform the general public of what to do before, during,and after an earthquake. Earthquakes strike suddenly, violently and without warning. Identifying potential hazards ahead of time and advance planning can reduce the dangers of serious injury or loss of life from an earthquake.Checking Utilities in Damaged HomesCheck for gas leaks - If you smell gas or hear blowing or hissing noises, open a window and quickly leave the building. Turn off the gas at the outside main valve if you can and call the gas company from a neighbor's home. If you turn off the gas for any reason, it must be turned back on by a professional.Look for electrical system damage - If you see sparks or broken or frayed wires, or if you smell hot insulation, turn off the electricity at the main fuse box or circuit breaker. If you have to step in water to get to the fuse box or circuit breaker, call an electrician first for advice.Check for sewage and water lines damage - If you suspect sewage lines are damaged, avoid using the toilets and call a plumber. If water pipes are damaged, contact the water company and avoid using water from the tap. You can obtain safe water by melting ice cubes.

Winter Safety Tips
Be wary of black ice, which can be difficult to see but makes conditions slippery when pavement temperatures are below freezing.
Have a cell phone handy and charged.
Equip your car with emergency supplies.
Inform a responsible person of your destination, intended route, and estimated time of arrival.
Keep calm and do not panic in case of a vehicle breakdown, accident, or if you become snowbound.
Keep your gas tank full to prevent gasoline freeze-up.
Trapped in a Car
Stay in your car and wait for help to find you.
Run your engine for short periods of time to stay warm. Keep your down-wind window open and make sure your exhaust pipe is clear of snow.
Turn on the dome light at night when you are running the engine to signal rescuers.
Hang a brightly colored piece of cloth or piece of clothing from your car.
Exercise from time to time by vigorously moving arms, legs, fingers and toes to keep blood circulating and to keep warm.
Winterize Your Vehicle
Preparing your vehicle for winter weather travel will help ensure your vehicle is in good working order when you need it most.
Have a mechanic check the following items on your vehicle:
	Battery
Wipers and windshield washer fluid
Antifreeze
Ignition system
Thermostat
Lights
Exhaust system
Flashing hazard lights
Heater
Brakes
Defroster
Oil level

Install good winter tires. Make sure the tires have adequate tread. All-weather radials are usually adequate for most winter conditions. You may also want to carry a set of tire chains in your vehicle for heavy snow conditions.
Keep a windshield scraper and small broom for ice and snow removal and maintain at least a half tank of gas throughout the winter season.
Finally, plan long trips carefully. Listen to the local media report or call law enforcement agencies for the latest road conditions.

Screening station at the Courthouse
The Superior Court of California, County of Tuolumne, has full-time security personnel who are stationed at the main entrance of the courthouse. Our goal is to ensure the safety of our visitors, staff, and Superior Court building, while facilitating your entry. 
All persons must go through entrance screening each and every time they enter the building.
Court Entrance Screening Process
When entering the building, remove any metal items from your pockets and your person. This includes metal belt buckles, boots, watches, cell phones, coins, or any other item that will not clear the metal detection equipment. Place your personal property, including laptops, in a plastic bin or on the conveyor belt.
If backpacks, satchels or purses are present, you may be asked to remove one or more items so the security officer can clearly see the contents. Please comply with all requests of the security officer.
If you have medical concerns, discuss them with the screening officer. (NOTE: The magnetometer is certified safe for pacemakers.)

Proceed through the walk-through metal detector.
If you trigger the detector's alarm, you will be asked to remove any objects you may have missed and walk through the metal detector again.
The security officer may also use a hand wand to detect any metal on your person.
No unauthorized objects will be allowed into the court building.

Security officers and court personnel are not allowed to hold any prohibited item for you. Should you bring any such item into the screening area, security personnel will require you to return the item to your car or throw it away via the security officer.

California State Parks Safety Tips
Know Before You Go: Prior to leaving home, check the status of the park unit you want to visit to find current park information. Trails, roads or certain areas may be unavailable due to unforeseen circumstances. Also, check local weather forecasts and the official website or social media channels of your destination.
Plan and Prepare: Permits may be required such as for entry, camping, certain recreational activities or transportation. Also, having and knowing how to use the appropriate gear for your activity could make or break your experience. Have a back-up plan in case your destination or activity is unavailable.
 Play It Safe: State parks are meant to be enjoyed in many different ways, but to play it safe, err on the side of caution. Make sure you not to underestimate temperatures or hiking distances. Let somebody know that you are in the park, especially if you undertake longer hikes. Enter waterbodies such as rivers or lakes in parks only if and where it is safe and encouraged. Be sure to wear a U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket when recreating near or in the water.
Leave No Trace: Leave areas better than how you found them by staying on designated trails and packing out all trash. Do not disturb wildlife or take plants.

Seasonal safety guidelines:

Summer: Summer activity safety is the most important issue to keep in mind when recreating in the heat and in water. When outside, please remember the following safety tips:

Wear a Life Jacket Around Water: Water-related accidents can happen suddenly and rapidly. Make sure you and those with you wear properly fitting, U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets, especially children. Wearing a life jacket is the best way to increase your chances of survival during an incident. View locations where public agencies and private organizations offer to loan life jackets to the public.
Ocean Rip Currents: If you get caught in a rip current, stay calm and do not fight the current. Swim or float parallel to the shore until you are out of the current and then swim toward the shore.
Check the Weather:

Plan activities based on temperatures throughout the day.
Dress in proper clothing for the activities you are planning.
