From the Mayor’s Office:
“Mayor Muriel Bowser established the DC Contact Tracing Force to hire hundreds of additional tracers at DC Health.
“An effective response requires widespread contact tracing so that we know who has the virus and who has been exposed to it,” said Mayor Bowser. “When it comes time to reopen our city, this team of contact tracers is going to play a critical role in keeping Washingtonians safe and our city moving forward.”
DC Health currently has about 65 contact tracers, and about 70% of confirmed cases have been traced.
The Force is in the process of increasing that team to about 200 tracers, with up to an additional 700 tracers to be hired through Phase One of re-opening the District.
The Contact Tracing Force will help contain the virus and mitigate community spread through a five-step process:
Test
Isolate
Trace
Quarantine
Connect to Services”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
