RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee to execute Amendment to Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) #28-944-7 with the City of Antioch, to expand the authorized use of an existing COVID-19 services site at the Nick Rodriguez Community Center to include the administration of Monkeypox and influenza vaccines and extend the term through April 30, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a nonfinancial agreement, there is no cost to the County associated with this MOA.

BACKGROUND:

On January 5, 2021, the County and City of Antioch entered into a MOA for mutual aid assistance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, authorizing the County to provide COVID-19-related services such as testing and vaccinations in a portion of the City’s Nick Rodriguez Community Center, for the period from December 28, 2021, through July 31, 2021. Thereafter, the parties entered into a series of agreements to extend the term through January 14, 2023, and change the area made available to the County under the MOA.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The Health Services Department is anticipating a high rate of respiratory syncytial virus spread throughout the community this winter and anticipates the need for COVID-19, Monkeypox and influenza vaccinations during these months. If the proposed amendment is approved, vaccinations for COVID-19, Monkeypox and influenza will be authorized at this site. COVID-19 testing will remain an authorized service but is not currently being provided at this site.

The County Health Officer and Health Services Director both recommend that the MOA be extended through April 30, 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, vaccination and testing services will not be available at the Nick Rodriguez Community Center under the MOA.
