Source Agency: Public Health – Seattle & King County (Washington)State: WashingtonThe Social Distancing Protocol identifies types of social distancing, assesses the probable economic and social impact of each measure, and provides a guide for phased implementation based on WHO pandemic phase and local surveillance. These materials would be useful for review by state and local health departments, because they reference proposed decision-makers at each level of implementation. This document constitutes a good model for public health organizations that want to be proactive about planning a layered approach to social distancing in a community. It may be important to ensure that these materials, especially those pertaining to social distancing thresholds, correspond with federal guidance.Tools: Appendix D-2: Graded Implementation ChartDownload pdf, 18 KBAppendix D-3: Decision ProtocolDownload pdf, 40 KBAppendix E: Decision ChartDownload pdf, 16 KBAppendix F: Threshold DeterminantsDownload pdf, 36 KB
