Millions more KN95 masks for kids coming out this week, state says
Nearly 21 million high-quality N95 masks have been sent to California county school boards in the past 10 days and millions more children’s KN95 masks could arrive as early as the end of this week, according to the governor’s office. from California. Emergency Services.Cal OES has partnered with the state Department of Education for distribution and so far, 51 of the state’s 58 counties have made the requests. “The numbers sent out are a direct result of what county education departments requested,” Cal OES spokesman Brian Ferguson said. The masks are BYD Care model # DE2322, which is suitable for adults and some high school and junior high students, Ferguson said. The Sacramento County Office of Education received 62 pallets of N95s, about 950,000 respirators and has since distributed them, according to spokesman Tim Herrera. “Each district will collect its batch of masks — the number determined by the state — and then issue them to students, teachers and staff in their district with whatever process they decide,” he said. Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advised people to “wear the most protective mask possible that fits well and that you will wear consistently.” Properly fitted N95 respirators can filter up to 95% of airborne particles, but they have not been tested for wide use in children. Ferguson said “several million” additional KN95 masks better suited for children will be released this week. “These distributions are intended to supplement – not replace – the purchase and distribution of personal protective equipment to employees and students by local authorities,” Ferguson said. “Unlike the early months of the pandemic, several varieties of masks are currently widely available for purchase on the open market and the federal government continues to reimburse local jurisdictions for 100% of the costs associated with these purchases.” County offices of education are also able to request cleaning wipes and hand sanitizer. Overall, more than one billion units of personal protective equipment have been sent to counties, schools, medical facilities and local communities in California, according to Cal OES. Ferguson said even with the latest distribution, “California still maintains a strong supply of hundreds of millions of pieces of PPE and other essential supplies that remain available for rapid deployment to communities in need.” Here is a county-by-county breakdown of the recent distribution of N95 masks for California schools since the New Years holidays. : 15,360mendocino: 61,440Merced: 230,400Modoc: 15,360Mono: 15,360napa: 76,800nevada: 46,080Orange: 1,781,760place: 291,840plulas: 15,360Sacramento: 952,320San Bernardino: 1 551 360San Diego: 1,920 000san francisco: 245 760san Joaquin: 583 680san Luis Obispo: 138,240san Mateo: 368,640santa clara: 998,400santa Cruz: 153,600shasta: 107.520s iSkiyou: 30 720Solano: 245 760Sonoma: 261 120Stanislaus: 430 080SUTTER: 92 160TEHAMA: 46 080trinity: 15 360Luttarre: 399 360TUOLUMNE: 30 720ventura: 522,240 Yolo8: 122,640
