3 NEW COVID CASES IN WARREN COUNTY Warren County Health Services reported three (3) new Warren County resident COVID-19 cases as of Thursday morning, with no ad...ditional recoveries documented. Health Services staff are monitoring nine (9) active cases as of Thursday, all with mild illness. None are hospitalized. Two of the new cases appear to stem from exposures during out-of-state travel, one traveling for work and one for pleasure. These cases are not connected to one another. The other case involves a person who was infected at a college who opted to come to a family home in Warren County to isolate while they are ill. Warren County Health Services Director Ginelle Jones continues to strongly urge the public to avoid non-essential gatherings, and direct that those who feel any symptom of illness should refrain from attending school, work or going into public until they consult with a medical provider to discuss a COVID-19 test. Mask use, hand washing and social distancing are particularly important during this period of time as we look to keep our schools open and COVID-free. With Halloween approaching, please find attached a flier with state and local guidance if you choose to host or attend a Halloween party despite Warren County Health Services’ recommendations against them. This flier can also be found on our Warren County COVID Hub website here: https://public.warrencountyny.gov/gis/covid/gatherings.pdf. Also: After receiving inquiries from the public about the safety of Halloween activities for children, Warren County Health Services has developed Halloween trick-or-treating guidelines for county residents. Those recommendations can be found online here: https://public.warrencountyny.gov/gis/covid/halloween.pdf. New York State’s new Halloween guidelines can be found here: coronavirus.health.ny.gov//13244_covid_halloweenguidance_1. Warren County Health Services and the Warren County Administrator’s Office have received numerous complaints in recent weeks about local taxi cab companies not enforcing state mask requirements with their drivers or passengers. This is particularly concerning in light of the fact that cabs are frequently used for transportation to and from health care facilities, including nursing homes. Warren County is working with city of Glens Falls officials to ensure that these cab companies are aware of the requirements for both drivers and passengers, and enforcement will be undertaken if needed. New York State has unveiled two new online portals to track COVID-19 infections and other data at K-12 schools and SUNY colleges statewide. For data on all State University of New York (SUNY) campuses, go to www.suny.edu/covid19-tracker/. The new portal for K-12 school districts can be found through this link: forward.ny.gov/dashboard-covid-19-data-schools. For the Capital Region’s current COVID-19 metrics, which include Warren County, go to: forward.ny.gov/early-warning-monitoring-dashboard as well as forward.ny.gov/percentage-positive-results-region-dashboard and forward.ny.gov/percentage-positive-results-county-dashboard. NEW YORK, VERMONT TRAVEL ADVISORIES New York State’s travel advisory for visitors from COVID hot-spot states includes travelers from 38 states, Puerto Rico and Guam.

Visitors from these states must quarantine for 14 days when arriving in New York, and those who are quarantining in New York when a state is removed from the advisory list are required to continue their quarantine until 14 days have passed. New York state is also strongly discouraging non-essential travel to the states of New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania until further notice as those states deal with burgeoning COVID case numbers as well. Those who arrive from one of these states are directed to contact Warren County Health Services at 518-761-6580 to go over local protocols, and the state travel advisory form can be found here: forms.ny.gov//Welcome-to-New-York-State-Traveler-Health-Fo.

Please also note that Vermont has also instituted a policy that requires those coming from areas with certain COVID caseloads quarantine upon entry to the state for leisure travel, if they have not quarantined and/or been tested for COVID-19 beforehand. Those from Warren County who travel to Vermont for non-work purposes are required to quarantine if staying in the state, should they not meet quarantine criteria beforehand.
