  • – Contact tracing premise is simple: alert anyone who has been in contact with an infected person and help them prevent spreading the disease to others
  • – Trained workers interview the person with the “index case” and trace back who they have had recent close contact with, including family, friends, work colleagues and neighbors

Dallas County COVID-19 Efforts

Tuesday, 07 April 2020 by Dr. Elba Garcia Staff

Greetings,

I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe as we continue to work together and do everything that we can to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

I recently attended the Board of Directors meeting for the Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce and presented a PowerPoint presentation on the efforts Dallas County is taking to support our communities during this ongoing crisis.

I wanted to share this PowerPoint presentation with you all so you are aware of the work that is being done to keep our communities safe as well as some very helpful information regarding the current status and cases of the COVID-19 virus.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and lets continue to practice social distancing, wash our hands, and stay safe!

Saludos,

Elba Garcia

Quedate En Casa Mantente Seguro – COVID-19 Actualización 31 de Marzo de 2020

Tuesday, 31 March 2020 by Dr. Elba Garcia Staff

Estimados amigos y vecinos,
A medida que terminamos la primera semana de refugio en su hogar, quería tomar un momento para agradecer a todos por hacer su parte en ayudar a mantenernos a todos a salvo. Sé que muchos están sufriendo dificultades – ser despedidos de su trabajo, tener su negocio cerrado o tener seres queridos enfermos con el virus. Es muy probable que lo peor aún esté por venir. Nuestra paciencia y resistencia serán probadas. Pero sé que podemos superar esta crisis y vencer a este virus si todos trabajamos juntos y nos cuidamos el uno al otro. Estoy asombrada de los actos de caridad y amabilidad que veo en toda nuestra comunidad. Restaurantes que están fuera de servicio, pero dando comida a aquellos que lo necesitan. Empresas que están convirtiendo sus líneas de producción en fábricas de equipos de protección para nuestros héroes de la salud, lo cuales trabajan en la primera fila de esta pandemia. Todos los días nuestra oficina recibe llamadas de empresas e individuos que preguntan “¿Cómo puedo ayudar?” Con cada llamada que recibimos, estoy llena de mayor confianza en la fortaleza de nuestra comunidad.
Gracias a todos los que están donando su tiempo, su trabajo y sus materiales. Un agradecimiento muy especial a nuestros héroes del cuidado de la salud, que están trabajando horas inimaginables y que están arriesgando sus vidas para salvar la nuestra. Les debemos una deuda que nunca podremos pagar. Por último, gracias a todos los que se quedaron en casa esta semana. Esa es la contribución más importante que se puede hacer y la única cosa que reducirá la propagación de este virus. Como siempre, estamos aquí si nos necesita. Nuestra oficina sigue abierta de lunes a viernes, de 8:00 a.m. a 4:30 p. m. Llámenos o envíenos un correo electrónico si necesita información, asistencia o si necesita que lo conectemos con servicios de salud o financieros. Gracias de nuevo por su paciencia y su perseverancia durante esta crisis. Manténgase fuerte. Quédese en casa – Estoy segura de que hay programas en Netflix que aún no ha visto. Recuerden que todos estamos juntos en esto, y que prevaleceremos.
