Sonoraville High employee tests positive for COVID-19

Community April 28, 2020 , by Susan Kirkland

An employee at Sonoraville High School who helped prepare meals for students recently tested positive for COVID-19, causing the school system to temporarily stop services at the school so they could disinfect. Meals for students in that district can pick meals at Gordon Central High school on Thursday.

According to a press release from the Gordon County Board of Education:

Gordon County Schools was notified on the afternoon of Monday, April 27 that one of our School Nutrition Program staff members recently tested positive for COVID-19. The employee was preparing meals at Sonoraville High School on April 20 and has not worked with the program since that date. The employee is at home recuperating. Our thoughts and prayers are with our staff member for a complete recovery. Following CDC guidelines, staff members who worked with the employee have been notified.

Though not required under Department of Public Health guidelines, we have made the decision to temporarily close the kitchen at Sonoraville High School to support our staff members and allow for additional cleaning and disinfecting. Due to the shutdown of the kitchen, there will be no meals provided for the remainder of the week (Thursday and Friday) out of Sonoraville High School or mobile sites served from the Sonoraville High School kitchen. Meals will only be distributed at Gordon Central High School and mobile sites serviced by the Gordon Central High School kitchen. Those who normally receive meals from Sonoraville High School are welcome to go to Gordon Central High School on Thursday to pick up meals for Thursday and Friday. We plan to reopen all sites the week of May 4.

Our School Nutrition Program had already taken many precautions to mitigate the spread of the virus by following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control, Georgia Department of Public Health, and the Gordon County Health Department. This has included self-reporting when symptoms occur, wearing gloves during food prep and distribution, use of masks or face coverings, limiting the number of employees in the kitchen and prep areas, and practicing social distancing among staff and the public. To further help promote public wellness, meal distribution was reduced from daily to two days a week beginning April 13.

Gordon County Schools is committed to providing food for families while promoting public health and safety. Therefore, we are taking further actions to protect all of those involved in the meal service program. Starting Thursday, April 30, school nurses will be on hand to screen all of those working in the meal service program. Additionally, we are continuing to monitor guidance from national, state and local health organizations, and will make adjustments accordingly while striving to maintain meal distribution service for those in need.

Our current school meal program will end on May 22, and our summer meal service will begin June 1 and run through July 31, with no service the week of June 29-July 3.

coronavirus update COVID-19 Gordon County

UPDATE: Gordon County Task Force updates for March 31, 2020

Press Release March 17, 2020 , by Susan Kirkland

CALHOUN–Gordon County has 16 confirmed cases and one death, remaining the same as Monday night’s numbers, according to the Georgia Department of Health.

The numbers released by the Department of Public Health (DPH) as of 7 p.m. confirm 4,117 cases of COVID-19 in the state of Georgia, up 300 from 3,817 cases at the same time on Monday. The DOH releases numbers at noon and 7p.m. daily. The number of deaths increased to 125 today from 100 at the same time.

As for Gordon County, AdventHealth Gordon numbers reported today to Gordon County Emergency Management for cases tested at their facility are as follows:
six positive results, thirty-six negative results, and twenty pending results. Just as a reminder, DPH cases are assigned to each county by the address of the resident, not where they were tested. Also, this is all the information that has been shared with Gordon County as due to HIPPA laws, the county does not know the names of any patients or fatalities.

Gordon County, Calhoun, leadership and public safety from other municipalities held their fifth meeting via web conference to discuss issues relevant to COVID-19. The COVID-19 Pandemic Task Force comprised of all local governments, state government, public safety agencies, schools, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, public health, churches, non-profit organizations, and our hospital. These weekly meetings serve as tools to make sure all are “collaborating together to stay up to date on our current situation as well as that around our nation.

“We are working daily together to combat this virus here in Gordon County and taking steps to make sure we are prepared for different scenarios that could present themselves. Our focus is on social distancing as evidenced by the joint resolution between the county and all municipalities last week. We need our citizens to heed these directives to assist in keeping us all safer as well as doing the small things like covering your cough and washing your hands. The best-case scenario is that by practicing these things we are able to keep our numbers here in Gordon County at a lower count than some of our surrounding communities,” said Keith King, spokesman for Gordon County.

“We are all working hard on keeping the best-case scenario in play at the same time we assure the public that we are planning for a more worst-case scenario if necessary. Plans are in place and have been reviewed and updated that would address issues that we would face in this type of scenario to include surge capacity plans for our hospital, alternative care site plans if we must offer medical care in other locations, as well as casualty plans. These plans were all created in hopes that we never have to use them but they are in place and ready to be enacted if the need arises,” he continued.

He said residents should be mindful of their surroundings and use common sense precautions to prevent the spread of all infectious diseases including COVID-19. Some of these steps are:

Stay at home if at all possible.
Avoid gatherings of more than 10 people and practice social distancing by maintaining 6 feet of physical separation from others at all times.
Wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
Stay home when you are sick.
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

“We will continue to work diligently to be prepared to protect our citizens and visitors no matter the threat we are faced with. We continue to ask for your prayers for our community, our state, and our nation,” said King.
