February 18, 2021Disaster Council Minutes <br />Interim City Manager Robustelli deferred to SLPD and other city staff for report. <br />San Leandro Police reported that staff have been able to obtain vaccines through the <br />Sheriff Office. Messaging should include a reminder for people to be patient to get the <br />vaccine, there will be enough for everyone eventually and include that even after getting <br />the vaccine, people should continue to wear their masks, wash their hands, and <br />maintain social distancing, because the virus can still be spread. Right now, there are <br />delays due to the weather and to manufacturing of the vaccine. There are multiple ways <br />for those within the current tier to sign up for an appointment, including contacting their <br />healthcare provider using the state’s Myturn website and phone line, and calling 211 for <br />information. <br />During 2020, Emergency Services was working with PG&E to set up a community <br />resource center (CRC) at the library and to get a generator set up. The generator had <br />been set up in late November and was in place until next week when it will be removed. <br />It will be brought back before fire season. While the generator is fuel based, <br />Emergency Services will be pursuing a grant from Cal OES for PSPS mitigation and <br />hoping to purchase of at least one alternative energy generator. <br />RHS reported the MCC test site is funded until the end of April and it has seen a <br />decrease in the number of people getting a test, like many other sites, due to the <br />availability of the vaccine. The county is focused on getting the federal megapod at the <br />Coliseum set up and they will be providing mobile units, though that is in the planning <br />stages at this time. The focus will be on the five zip codes with the highest positivity <br />rates, including using the Reach Center in Ashland/Cherryland. A meeting was held <br />with Tiburcio Vasquez to partner with SCC, but they could not move from their site <br />due to their license. The county has proposed two sites to use in the city, but there <br />has not been much discussion lately. <br />Healthcare Services <br />• Hospitals <br />• Davis Street Family Resource Center <br />• Red Cross <br />• SL Elder Care Alliance <br />2.D. <br />Kaiser Hospital reported that they are still having vaccine supply issues and are <br />planning for when they can provide for a larger audience. The current vaccine site is in <br />the conference rooms with the entrance being on the west side. People do have sign <br />up on the website, kp.org/covidvaccine. A letter is going out this week to those 75 and <br />will include a phone number to use. <br />San Leandro Hospital reported their support and thoughts go out to those who have <br />family members suffering from COVID, congratulated interim Chief Torres and thanked <br />SLPD and ACFD for their recent response. They continue to care for the community <br />and are responding to those who need care for COVID and patients with day to day <br />needs, including vaccinating staff and patients. They continue to monitor PPE supply <br />and to encourage everyone to follow establish safe procedures. <br />Davis Street Family Resource Center reported that they have been using the Moderna <br />vaccine since January to provide up to 150 doses to the community. They are focusing <br />on black, brown, and homebound seniors and are doing outreach to rehab and <br />congregate living facilities. They have volunteer medical staff coming back to assist <br />in giving the vaccines. Because of the lack of computer access, the clinic is assisting <br />the community in filling out vaccine paperwork. The weather did affect the process <br />Page 4City of San Leandro <br />41
