Del Norte High to return as county enters red tier Fewer COVID cases countywide allow indoor dining to resume ZACK DEMARS The Triplicate

Del Norte County has advanced to the red tier of COVID-19 restrictions, the state announced Tuesday.

The change in tier comes with a loosening of some restrictions as a result of declines in the county’s case rate. Del Norte County is one of just five across the state not

under purple-level restrictions, the highest level of the state’s framework.

“It’s good news. It’s very good news,” Dr. Warren Rehwaldt, the county’s public health officer, told the board of supervisors during its meeting Tuesday.

Among other changes, the key difference in the restrictions comes for restaurants, which will be

allowed to reopen to 25% of their indoor capacity.

“Well the list of impacted businesses is pretty long,” Rehwaldt said. “I think the ones that come to mind the most are our restaurants, though, because they were forced to go to outside operations only, which we all know is not really feasible in Del Norte County in January and February.”

Under state rules, the new restrictions mean: • Gyms and fitness centers will be allowed to reopen indoors to 10% capacity.

• Movie theaters will be allowed to reopen indoors to 25% capacity or 100 people, whichever is less.

• Museums, zoos and aquariums will be allowed to reopen indoors to 25% capacity.

• Restaurants will be allowed to reopen to indoor dining up to 25% capacity or 100 people, whichever is less.

• Retail stores can increase to 50% capacity, and grocery stores have no virus-related capacity restrictions.

K9 deputy honors Crescent City hero Huffman, experts address vaccine questions

Sheriff’s office names K9 after Capt. Bruno G. de Solleni

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

The Del Norte County Sheriff”s Office has chosen a name for its newest K9 officer and will honor a local hero at the same time.

When the sheriff’s department received the K9, it went to Facebook and asked for suggestions on a new name. In a release issued Friday, the sheriff’s office said hundreds of suggestions were received. The one chosen – Bruno.

The name honors Capt. Bruno G. de Solleni, who was killed in September 2008 while serving as part of the Oregon National Guard in Afghanistan.

On Sept. 20, 2008, de Solenni was on duty in Kandahar, Afghanistan when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle, sustaining injuries that took his life.

He was a lifelong resident on Crescent City and graduate from high school in 1994. In addition to serving in the National Guard, he worked as commercial crabber and logger. He was in Afghanistan for nine months, and previously served tours in Egypt and Iraq.

In a previously released news story, Oregon National Guard Capt.

Dominic Oto described Bruno de Solenni as smart, kind and with a steel core that made him the best officer on the team.

“He loved the Afghans, and in combat never was there a better operator or leader,” Oto said. “The man was absolutely fearless.”

Sheriff Erik Apperson said he talked to the de Solleni family before choosing the name.

The Del Norte County Sheriff’s Office recently acquired a new K9 deputy. After asking the community for suggestions for a name, the K9 was named Bruno in honor of Capt. Bruno G. de Solleni, who was killed while fighting in Afghanistan.

“This name just feels right,” Apperson said. “K9 Bruno will serve Del Norte County public safety

with focus and commitment. He will make our region a safer place and in no small way carry on the

legacy that came from his namesake. I am proud to be a part of this moment.”

Congressman Jared Huffman held a town hall Feb. 3 to share information about the state of the COVID-19 pandemic in the northern portion of his congressional district, from Del Norte County to Mendocino County.

Among many topics up for discussion during the pandemic, Huffman and a panel of experts focused on the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.

“It is the most hopeful part of this crisis,” Huffman said in his opening comments. “The fact that we, in less than a year, have multiple safe, effective vaccines that can save lives and accelerate our path out of this. But it’s also a frustrating issue right now, because the rollout’s been slower than any of us want, and it can be confusing, because there’s a lot of changing and seemingly contradictory information out there.”

Huffman said he’s seen changes in the country’s response to the pandemic in the time since President Joe Biden was inaugurated.

“Even though it’s only been a few days, I already see major changes in our national response to this pandemic,” Huffman said.

“There’s a new focus on science, on consistent messaging, on transparPlease see QUESTIONS, Page A8

Humboldt County woman still recovering after dog attack ZACK DEMARS The Triplicate

Family members are asking for support as a Humboldt County woman remains in the hospital after a dog attack caused serious injuries two weeks ago.

Candis Danielson, a Brookings-Harbor High School grad who moved to Humboldt County after graduation, had gone over to a neighbor’s house to help him with a generator he was borrowing, according to Shiann Davis, Danielson’s sister.

“I don’t blame her for going and helping her neighbor,” Davis said. “She just has such a big heart.”

The accident came when two dogs got out of the house in Myers Flat and attacked Danielson, mauling her legs and knocking her over, according to Davis.

“The dogs ended up dragging her by her legs underneath his trailer,” Davis said.

There, the dogs severely injured both of Danielson’s legs. Sheriff’s deputies arrived on scene to find Danielson with “serious and extensive injuries related to the attack” and had to perform life-saving efforts, according to a press release from the sheriff’s office.

One other victim was treated for bite-related injuries nearby after attempting to assist Danielson, and the dogs have been taken into Please see RECOVERING, Page A6

College of the Redwoods presents 2021 Faculty Exhibition The Triplicate The College of the Redwoods Art Gallery presents the Art Department 2021 Faculty Exhibition, opening online Feb. 23 and featuring work by Natalia Margulis, Shannon Sullivan, Tova Lund, Benjamin Funke, Lindsay Lacewell Kessner, Gary Christensen and David Wilson.

The 2021 Faculty Exhibition allows viewers to virtually explore images of paintings, sculptures, ceramic, jewelry and photography, reflecting the diverse ideas and media that CR art faculty use within their individual studio practices. The artists present a range of visuals from luminous photography, intricately subtle sculptures, to boldly abstracted forms.

This exhibit offers the opportunity to connect and learn from practicing professionals and demonstrates how these instructors integrate their artistic inquiries into their courses. The work exhibited

exemplifies the skills and commitment required for relevant and rigorous contemporary art making, particularly given the challenges of the ongoing pandemic.

Art professors Natalia Margulis and Lindsay Lacewell Kessner present a duo of abstracted works on canvas, which are immediately distinctive in appearance, medium and process. Margulis’ oil painting, Beginning, focuses on the interplay of texture and color, straddling the line between abstraction and representation while also attempting to express a range of emotion, from light to dark. Kessner’s work is an excerpt from a six-part series on elements. It emerged after her exploration into a wide variety of traditional and scientific systems for reducing the natural world to its most fundamental components. Kessner says, “I decided to develop an elemental system based on my own conceptions of reality.”

Her mixed-media painting, Lambda, refers to the quan-

Art Professor Shannon Sullivan’s ceramic sculpture, Folded Topography 3, is part of the ongoing project, Net Gain: An experiment in Geometric Folding by Central Booking, a non-traditional gallery in New York City.

Artists were asked to use specific complex mathematical patterns, cut and folded from a single sheet of paper, as the starting point for their work.

Her Folded Topography series emerged from Sullivan’s immediate affinity for the potential the Net Gain project presented. She states, “This project spoke to me from the very beginning. I enjoy being part of a community of artists

from around the globe folding paper during the COVID isolation. I had dabbled in paper clay casting before, but this opened the door for a deep study.”

Viewers are invited to view the 2021 Faculty Exhibition on digital display from Feb. 23 to March 25 at www. redwoods.edu/artgallery.

Selected images will also be viewable on the gallery’s Instagram @redwoodsgallery and Facebook throughout the duration of the exhibition.

The CR Art Gallery physical space is currently closed to the public. For further inquiries, or to be added to the exhibition announcement email list, contact art-gallery@redwoods.edu or leave a voicemail at (707) 4764100 ext. 4869.

Former Del Norte USD athletic Wood proposes legislation to protect director arrested in Grants Pass patients from surprise medical bills

By David Rupkalvis The Triplicate

A former Del Norte Unified School District athletic director is behind bars in Josephine County, Oregon, on charges he sexually assaulted a 17-year-old girl in late January.

Jay Reese, who served as the district’s athletic director from September 2019 to April 2020, was arrested Tuesday on two counts of sex abuse in the second degree.

According to information released by the Grants Pass Department of Public Safety, Reese, who is 60, met the

teen Jan. 28 at a Walmart in Grants Pass. The police allege Reese took the girl from Walmart to his home.

According to the police report, the girl stayed overnight at Reese’s home. During the night, the police allege Reese “subjected the victim to sexual contact without her consent.”

“This case is still under investigation and additional charges may be pending,” GPDPS said in a press release. “Due to the nature of this case, there is concern there may be other victims.”

In Oregon, sex abuse in the second degree is a Class C

felony and is punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine up to $125,000.

Del Norte Unified School Jay Reese District released a press release Thursday, saying it was made aware of the charges. The school district is cooperating fully with Grants Pass police. Michael Hawkins, communications manager for the district, said no reports or complaints of sexual conduct by Reese were made during his time with the district.

Hawkins did ask anyone who might know about the case in Grants Pass of possible information on any other case to call Detective Heather Yerrick at 541-450-6260 and reference case No. 21-4447.

Assemblymember Jim Wood recently introduced AB 510, a bill that adds new protections for patients from surprise medical bills, building on those already provided by AB 72, a bill that has protected 14 million California patients from surprise medical bills since 2017.

“AB 72 has been a lifeline for patients the past four years protecting them from the financial devastation that surprise medical bills could have caused,” said Wood.

The act also extends protections to approximately 6 million Californians who are covered under ERISA plans, plans California does not regulate.

“AB 72 provided patients with many protections against surprise medical bills and those will remain, including a key provision establishing the out-of-network physician payment structure, but AB 510 allows us to improve and add some new patient protections,” said Wood.

New nonprofit looks to showcase resilience with Harambee Liberation Month

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill Sarah Vevoda’s 7-year-old daughter Jaz used to say she had “up hair,” her natural Black curls growing upward instead of hanging down like nearly everyone else’s around her, including her family. Sarah, who is white, says Jaz has commented on not seeing other people who look like her.

“It’s very hard for her to be in a sea of white people everywhere she goes,” says Vevoda, noting Jaz is darker skinned than her eldest child, who’s also bi-racial, and her hair and skin are sometimes treated as curiosities by classmates. “As innocent as they are, because they’re children and aren’t used to being around someone who looks like Jaz … they can say things that make her feel like she doesn’t fit in, that she stands out.”

It’s with young people like Jaz that the HC Black Music and Arts Association means to connect. The nonprofit organization, which operates as a Dream Maker Project of the Ink People, is focused on connecting young BIPOC people to their cultural roots and each other. Starting as it did in 2020, the connections meant to foster self-esteem and resilience have become even more vital amid the COVID-19 pandemic and its attending isolation. Throughout February, national Black History Month, HCBMAA is holding Harambee Liberation Month, with Zoom workshops and classes, as well as distanced in-person storytelling and a memorial march through Old Town.

President and founding member of HCBMAA Valetta Molofsky, who teaches social work at College of the Redwoods and serves as second vice president of the Eureka NAACP, was hearing more and more through her work as a social worker about BIPOC youth struggling with stress and even suicidal ideation.

“I had one child that told me [kids] called her dirt.

That she was the color of dirt,” says Molofsky. “She thought she was ugly. … No child should be subjected to that.”

In late 2019, Molofsky started looking for funding and helping hands to create spaces of welcome and sup-

port for young BIPOC people in Humboldt. Donations and sponsorships started coming in, and with grant-writing help from Lorenza Simmons, the organization’s youth coordinator, so did funding from Humboldt Area Foundation and Coast Central Credit Union. With that funding, donated masks and hand sanitizer — and help from local artists, educators and community members — HCBMAA held a socially distanced Harambee Youth Empowerment Workshop in August. The camp, which took its name from the Swahili word for “pulling together,” focused on African history, dance, music and art, as well as bonding with BIPOC peers and mentors, all while applying African cultural principles.

For Jaz, Vevoda says the experience was invaluable.

“The first day of the camp, when she came home she was glowing,” she says. “Just being in a group of people who looked like her was just feeding her in a way that I didn’t realize.”

Simmons will be running somatic movement and music classes for Harambee Liberation Month. She incorporates African songs and movement from Congo, Egypt and around the continent, as well as African American traditions, to help participants connect to pan-African culture and “feel comfortable in their skins … doing that through music and art and all these different expressions to really build them up.” She’s found that many BIPOC youth “don’t have connection to African roots, or pieces are missing.” Through her classes, Simmons tries to bridge the cultures of Africa, the global diaspora and African American culture. Simmons says that connection — and just getting up and moving — has proven even more important over the last year.

COVID-19 has separated many students from vital support systems during a stressful time, but Simmons sees young people of color in particular suffering the loss after a tumultuous summer of local and national news.

“The movement and the protests were all amazing and needed, but I think with George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery

— I could go on and on, just that constant flow — and with it coming to a head, it’s just overload for the youth to be able to process it,” she says. “Some of the normal places where they find connection were being lost with the pandemic.”

Kory Jones, who is teaching a three-part series this month called “Being Yourself through Deconstruction,” will be trying to fill in some of that support. The Marine Corps veteran says he’ll be sharing some of the strategies that have helped him with PTSD brought on by exposure to violence in his early years and his time in the military, as well as the racism he’s experienced in varying forms. That means breaking down some of the conflicting belief systems coming from one’s family, religion, culture and country, evaluating those beliefs and deciding what to let go.

“Deconstructing and pulling some of that back,” Jones says, “that frees us.”

Jones, who hails from Florida, understands the unwelcome feeling many BIPOC youth and adults say they experience in Humboldt.

“In the South, you know

where you can and can’t go as an African American person. In California, it’s ‘Oh, OK.’ But you can’t.” Jones adds, “On the East Coast it’s blatant; in California, it’s more subtle.” He says he was recently struck by his thirdgrade son’s admission that he sometimes worries whether his father will make it home.

Even without having had a direct conversation about how easily a call to the police can escalate to violence against Black men, Jones says, “My children on some level already know what they’re dealing with. … We need to combat that on some level to keep their self-esteem high.” For Jones, the goal is creating something like the recreation center he grew up near, “a place where you can be safe with your being as a whole … mentally, spiritually — you have a place and you’re safe.”

HCBMAA Vice President Doug Smith, who is the coordinator of Humboldt State University’s African American Center for Academic Excellence, says he will be connecting to participants through poetry.

“It was a tool for me when I was younger going through

challenges … it was an outlet,” he says. And leaning into African oral tradition, he’ll be encouraging reading poetry out loud and connecting the work to what’s going on at school and in the community. “The history we do get about ourselves is very negative and what that does to a young child, growing up hearing only that they come from slaves,” can be devastating, he says, as can disassociation from ancestral ideals, values, tools and strategies. “Reaching into history, reaching into cultures that are not given platforms” through poetry, for example, can help reconnect kids to that well of cultural resources.

“We’re just trying to build back some cultural identity that’s been lost,” says Molofsky. “We’re resilient, right?

That’s how our ancestors taught us to be.”

“Del Norte County Library has been such a resourceful impact on both my life and the lives of my children!

When I had used the local bus transport in Crescent City, my children loved waiting at Front Street bus stop because they knew we would visit the library until the next bus came to take us home. It became our usual routine that brightened up my children’s day because they would get to play in the kids’ corner and pick out a few books to read until our next trip on the bus again. Also, while I was enrolled in online courses through Colorado Christian

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

‘Gun nut’ has a warning

By Brian Sexton When I was a young man growing up in rural Oregon, there was a term for people like me: “gun nut.”

By my 20s, I had a sizable collection of rifles, pistols and shotguns. Some people I knew had a “pre-64” Winchester, a rifle renowned for its quality. Or they had a Browning Auto 5, a beautiful shotgun. A friend had 10 of those in various gauges.

But gun nuts today are a different breed entirely.

When they talk about guns, they don’t get into describing graceful lines, tight grain wood or immaculate bluing.

At gun stores today what I hear praised is firepower that comes out of black plastic and steel. And these weapons are not for hunting, they’re assault rifles sometimes called “modern sporting guns.” The kind of sport they’re good for is not spelled out.

One of the gun stores I visited recently boasted a back wall lined with assault-style rifles, pistols and defensive shotguns, all black except for a choice few in hot pink “for the ladies.” The staff mostly wore black as well.

Their T-shirts for sale featured some amalgam of the American Flag and warnings such as “Don’t tread on me” and “ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ”, an ancient Greek phrase roughly meaning “Come and take them.” Everybody - and I mean staff and other customers - was packing holstered pistols. I felt out of place and time.

In my sleepy Oregon town, sentiments like this don’t stop at a gun store. A trip to the supermarket is not complete without several sightings of men or women packing a pistol on their hip.

It is as if we are living in a fetishized version of the Wild West. Some of these folks probably envision themselves as the white-hat cowboy, a character prepared to defend against marauders.

My town boasts one of the oldest independent newspapers in Oregon, but the readership is a quarter of that of the Facebook page for the local police scanner.

Every crime committed is conveniently pinged to each follower’s cell, providing a steady feed of this world’s ills. But when we see the world through a lens of fear, it is no wonder that we look at our neighbors with suspicion. Maybe that explains the amazing statistic last year from Axios.com that “an estimated 5 million Americans bought their first gun.”

Dana Loesch, the former spokeswoman for the bankrupt National Rifle Association, talked about this free-floating fear: “The government has proven it cannot keep us safe, yet some people want to disarm all of us.”

This new group of men and women who wear guns as political statements apparently no longer experience weapons as tools for hunting or for sport.

Even claims of defense are suspect. What type of threat necessitates military firepower? Somehow, guns have become identified as symbolizing freedom, individuality or just plain cantankerousness.

It makes me miss the old days when a gun was just a tool - albeit sometimes a beautifully crafted one.

The irony of the modern gun movement is that a take-no-prisoner stance on gun rights might just turn into a groundswell of support for tighter regulations of guns.

But when the patriots start to lose gun nuts like me, they teeter on the brink of irrelevance.

Meanwhile, as the FBI cracks down on extremists who like to brag about their weapons on social media, we could be looking at more outbreaks of violence. LaVoy Finicum, who was killed by the FBI during the Malheur Refuge occupation in Ore-

Brian Sexton gon, seems to have become a martyr. Kyle Rittenhouse, the young man charged in the slaying of two civil rights protesters, has even developed a cult-like following.

The so-called patriots of today risk the very rights they’ve pledged to uphold with their lives. I know it’s a far less exciting thing to promote, but what makes America great is getting things done by talking and compromising.

I do not own an AR-15, and depending on my mood I can make an argument both for and against further regulations. After all, is my favorite deer rifle any less deadly than the scariest-looking assault weapon?

But on Jan. 6 at the Capitol, as I witnessed some of my countrymen threaten to use their weapons against our government, I found regulations more appealing.

It may be tedious to take part in politics on the level of reading about issues and engaging with people, but so far, that’s what makes America the best place to live. If I had to come up with a T-shirt slogan about a weapon, it wouldn’t be a threat, a warning or a brag. How about: A gun is just a gun.

Time to play With most of the commercial fishermen away crab fishing, there wasn’t a lot of activity last week at the Crescent City Harbor. With most of the human activity gone, seals took over the harbor. Throughout the harbor, seals popped up to eat and play, taking advantage of a warm, sunny day and still waters.

Coast Central Credit Union spring Community Investment Program opens Coast Central Credit Union announced that the spring 2021 round of its Community Investment Program is now open. A total of $100,000 is available to support local organizations throughout its tri-county area. Grant amounts generally range from $3,000 to $25,000, and there are usually eight to 12 recipients. The giving program was created in 2008, and since then has awarded over $1.4 million to 150 organizations throughout Humboldt, Del Norte and Trinity counties. Recent grant recipients have included Big Brothers Big Sisters, Family

Resource Center of the Redwoods and Weaverville Parks & Recreation.

Last year, CCCU contributed $255,000 in community grants, including its COVID Community Care Fund which supported 15 organizations negatively affected by the pandemic. Additionally, through its ongoing sponsorship program, the credit union donated $140,000 to local nonprofits in 2020.

Applications and more information may be obtained online at coastccu.org under the Community tab, or by contacting Coast Central’s VP of Marketing & Com-

munications Colleen Toste at (707) 445-8801, x 309 or ctoste@coastccu.org. The deadline is Monday, March 1, by 5 p.m. to Humboldt Area Foundation. A committee comprised of credit union staff will review all completed applications and then make recommendations to Coast Central’s Board of Directors, which approves the grants. The board’s decisions will be announced in April.

Founded in 1950, Coast Central Credit Union is the largest member-owned financial institution in Humboldt, Del Norte and Trinity counties.

Recovering

and under constant monitoring by doctors.

According to Davis, Danielson’s right leg has been amputated a few inches below her knee, and further amputations on either leg may be necessary as doctors watch the progress of her healing and any resulting

infections. She might have to move to a hospital in San Francisco, depending on the progress of her condition.

Fortunately, Davis said Danielson, a mother of five kids, has been staying strong during the times she’s awake in the hospital.

“She sounds good, and she’s come to terms as much as she can with what happened,” Davis said. “She’s so strong, and we love her so much.”

But, because of the COVID-19 pandemic and

custody pursuant to county code, according to the sheriff’s office.

Since then, Danielson has been at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Eureka, awake off and on

hospital restrictions, Danielson’s family members have only had a few chances to see her.

They’ve found ways to drop things off at the hospital for her and connect through phone and video calls.

“It’s been such a challenge to just not have the chance to hold her hand and see her face,” Davis said.

Since Danielson has been unconscious for much of the time since the incident, Davis said the family hasn’t decided yet if it will pursue legal

action against the owner of the dogs for the accident.

Still, Danielson and her family have seen an outpouring of support from neighbors, community members and complete strangers, according to Davis.

The family set up a GoFundMe website to raise funds for Danielson’s medical bills and possible legal expenses, which has garnered over $40,000 in donations and on which Davis posts updates about Danielson’s condition.

The site can be seen at https://www.gofundme.com/f/29kfh71stc?qid=2a23826798cad103dbe208216cc27c35.

“It’s been incredible. It’s been such an outpour of support and kindness,” Davis said of the support.

It’s also brought the family closer together, according to Davis, who lives about 45 minutes away.

“It’s just one of those eye-opening things you wish didn’t happen to get you here,” Davis said.

Mysti is a sweet and sensitive girl with a calm disposition. Her owners moved out and left her behind. She was found sitting on the porch waiting for someone to come home. She is estimated to be around 6 years old, has been spayed, and has all her shots. Mysti gets along well with other cats and is used to big and small dogs. She knows her name when called and longs for love pats and attention but is not needy. She has no bad habits and uses the litter box with no issues. She would be a great indoor cat but also likes the patio and to sit in front of the house. Mysti would make a wonderful companion cat once she has adjusted to her new home.

Students will return to campus starting Feb. 16, after a five-day waiting period and the President’s Day holiday, and should be allowed to remain in-person regardless the county’s tier status in the future, Harris said.

“From our perspective, it’s pretty set in stone,” Harris said. “On Tuesday, once we bring our students back, we are good to go.”

According to Harris, bringing students back to campus will be a big win.

ency, on accountability.”

He pointed to Biden’s goal of administering 100 million doses nationwide in the president’s first 100 days in office. That goal gets to the heart of the biggest barrier the panel said counties and health care providers are facing in completing vaccinations: a slow trickle of supply.

“I think what we’re seeing in California here is that the infrastructure is taking great shape, and I think there’s counties that are doing a fabulous job of being able to administer the vaccine, but the weak link is the amount of vaccine,” said Assembly Member Jim Wood, who joined the town hall. “So the sooner we get that and have it in a reliable way, the sooner we’re going to all be much better off.”

Both county health officials participating in the town hall agreed with that assess-

For many students, the current distance-learning only model “is just not working” academically, Harris said.

Going back to campus means those students will have consistent instruction from teachers and time to interact with peers. It’ll also be a plus for mental health.

“At this point, one of the more concerning sides is the social-emotional piece,” Harris said. “A lot of supports I think we took for granted when we were in school, our kids have lived without for the better part of a year.”

Giving students time to be in person and see friends and teachers can chip away at the level of depression, anxiety and other serious worries students have been reporting, Harris said.

Still, the partial-day return to campus isn’t the end goal.

“I truly wish we could

have every child back every day for a full day,” Harris said.

The district is still subject to state restrictions requiring a certain amount of classroom space per student. And while the district hasn’t reported any student-to-student spread, Harris said taking virus precautions like wearing face masks and avoiding gatherings is essential to avoid having to quarantine groups of students exposed to the virus.

“The last thing we want to have happen is to close a class or cohort of students,” Harris said.

Slowing cases and a slow trickle of vaccines The county’s tier change comes as the county has reported decreases in new COVID-19 cases, with daily case totals consistently in the low-single digits over the

past two weeks.

“We have seen some gradual decline in our case numbers. We had a little bit of a bump towards the end of the week last week — we don’t know what that portends.

And I guess I should be cautious, cautiously optimistic, because we had Super Bowl Sunday,” Rehwaldt said.

“Hopefully it won’t have a big impact.”

The gradual decline is a good sign, Rehwaldt said.

“I think we’re in a good spot,” he said “Things are moving in a good direction, I don’t have a lot of concerns at the moment.”

According to Rehwaldt, the county could see the impacts of new strains of the virus in the coming months, too, indicating that public health precautions and vaccinations remain necessary.

“I guess the biggest con-

cern is the impact of the variant strains of the virus that we keep hearing about, and when and if they reach us — eventually they will — how much of an impact they’ll have on our local operational picture remains to be seen,” Rehwaldt told the board of supervisors.

What’s more, Rehwaldt told supervisors the county’s vaccine dose supply is largely tapped out until it receives additional shipments of doses.

Most of the county’s remaining doses on hand are reserved for providing second doses to those who’ve already received their first from the county or from a primary care office.

The county vaccinated about 300 people last weekend in a drive-through event, but Rehwaldt said those kinds of events will only be

available when the county gets enough supply of the vaccine.

“We have a few targeted groups that we are doing second doses of in the interim, but until our vaccine supply improves, it’s not very expandable,” Rehwaldt said.

“We can’t scale it up yet, it will depend on the supply improving.”

As of Tuesday, state data showed Del Norte County has administered over 2,200 doses of the two-shot vaccine.

For now, county health officials are waiting to see if they’ll receive additional vaccine doses before being able to scale up their vaccination efforts.

“If we can’t predict what we’re going to get, there’s going to be starts and stops,” Rehwaldt said. “And right now we’re in a stop mode.”

ment.

“Supply is really the main issue at hand right now,” said Dr. Ian Hoffman, Humboldt County public health officer.

Most counties in California have been rolling out the vaccine in the same way, distributing doses of vaccines to hospitals and other providers and allowing eligible individuals to register for vaccination appointments.

In Mendocino County, over 15% of those over 16 years old have received a vaccine, according to Dr. Andy Coren, the county’s public health officer.

“In Mendocino County, we have focused on those tiers for equity and ethical distribution of these scarce supplies, and we’ve made pretty much through the phase 1 Teir — one, two and three — and are firmly in 1B,” Coren said. “Based on some outbreaks we had, we moved up law enforcement, the sheriff’s department, and also water and waste disposal, since we did not want to risk another kind of epidemic.”

VA hospitals, which are distributing vaccines to veterans across the state, are also receiving doses in “fits and starts,” according to Heather Nye, associate chief of medicine at the San Francisco VA Medical Center, which has a facility in Eureka.

“As soon as we hit steady state, we may be told to stop, or we may be blessed with a windfall of doses.”

The public health officials also responded to a handful of questions about vaccinations during Huffman’s town hall.

One question asked why the state was prioritizing elderly people to receive first and second doses of the vaccine, rather than using those doses to get first doses to a broader population, especially as variants of the virus which may spread faster have begun to appear in the state.

Coren responded by saying that, since the current forms of the vaccine require two doses to be fully effective, fully vaccinating the elderly is a safer strategy.

“The issue with the elderly is that they’re the most vulnerable,” Coren said. “From an ethical point of view, we want to save the most lives.

And from a practical point of view, we want to keep our hospitals and emergency rooms available, so we can take care of not only them, and not only people with COVID, but people who have heart attacks and get involved in accidents.”

Providers have been very careful about keeping track of those second doses, since there’s a few-day window in which someone needs to get a second dose of the vaccine in order for it to be most effective, the health officials said.

“We very much worry where the next dose is coming (from), whether it’s the first dose or the second dose,” Coren said.

To help with supply tracking and planning, Coren and the other experts recommended individuals get their COVID-19 doses in their home counties, and make

sure to get their second doses at the same places they got their first.

Another question focused on the now-common virus precautions of limiting gatherings and wearing masks — and if those precautions could go away once someone is vaccinated.

Probably not for a while, the doctors agreed.

“I wish it were that simple that as soon as we had our two doses we could go back to our normal life,” Humboldt County’s Hoffman said.

“As a society, we need to keep up all the measures that we have been doing.”

Until a large swath of the population is vaccinated, Hoffman said those precautions will likely still be important to slow the virus and to prevent the spread of its newer variations.

The public health experts also took questions about misleading information about the vaccine’s safety. In response, they pointed out the importance of recognizing misinformation, and rein-

forced the fact that studies of the vaccines have proven them to be safe and effective.

Still, Nye said those concerns about vaccine safety can’t be ignored, and she encouraged anyone with concerns to talk them over with their health care provider or local public health expert.

During the town hall, which is available on Huffman’s Facebook page for viewing in full, the elected officials and public health experts encouraged residents to be patient to receive a vaccine, and watch out for information from their health care providers and counties about their eligibility.

“While we’re in that race for more vaccine and more vaccinations, it is more important than ever right now for us to follow the strict guidelines and keep this virus at bay,” Humboldt County’s Hoffman said. “That’s going to take time. So in the meantime we all need to stay really close to home and do all of our measures we’ve been doing to stop the spread.”

The Tribe proposes to construct a Convenience Store and Gas Station on Tribal Reservation lands located in the County of Del Norte, California. The Proposed Action will offer goods and services, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, propane, limited grocery and merchandise items, prepared food and snacks, tobacco products, and beer. The convenience store would be an approximately 4,010-square-foot structure that will include retail space, a limited food preparation area, an office, storage, and restrooms. The food preparation methods will include the assembly of cold items and use of a microwave, hot dog roller, etc. which will prevent the need for a grease trap. The gas station facilities would include eight (8) ‘ double stack’ dispensers (16 pumps total) beneath a fueling canopy, two (2) high speed diesel (HSD) lanes with three (3) dispensers beneath a fueling canopy, two (2) 30,000 gallon underground fuel tanks, fuel vapor recovery systems, a 1,000 gallon above-ground propane tank, and a water/air supply station. The quantity and type of fuel in the underground storage tanks will include 30,000 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline, 20,000 gallons of diesel, and 10,000 gallons of premium unleaded gasoline.

The site will also include 50 standard vehicle parking spaces, 6 truck/RV parking spaces, 2 ADA parking spaces, a 500 kilowatt diesel generator in a shed-type structure with a 400 gallon tank, a trash enclosure for two dumpsters, an animal relief area, monument and pricing signs (maximum height of 5 feet), stormwater improvements (e.g., drainage inlets, piping, and retention basins), and landscaping throughout the site. The Proposed Action will include approximately 3.1 acres of asphalt and concrete paving for access drives and parking and approximately 0.9 acres of landscaping. The Proposed Action would occur on Tribal trust land known locally as the Martin Ranch property, which totals approximately 203.5 acres.

The Martin Ranch property is located approximately 1.5 miles southeast of the corporate limits of the City of Crescent City at 1100 Humboldt Road, Crescent City, California 95531.

Project information is available for review at the Elk Valley Rancheria, California Tribal Administrative Office located at 2332 Howland Hill Road, Crescent City, California 95531.
