Covid-19 Community Response Plan

Objective: Rapidly launch and operate a COVID-19 testing -telemonitoring – voluntary isolation initiative in Buffalo.

– About 1 in 5 US residents live in a multigenerational family – a household with children, adults and grandparents.

Target population: (1) high risk, low income individuals and (2) positive/presumptive – positive with mild and moderate illness.

– Tomorrow, Erie County will add a ZIP Code feature to its COVID-19 map. So far, the largest cluster of cases includes people in 14215, which is the City of Buffalo’s East Side.

Outcomes: (1) improve treatment, (2) reduce mortality, (3) reduce burden on hospitals.
