RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Memorandum of Understanding Agreement #28-887-1 with Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District, a nonfinancial agreement, to share Protected Health Information (PHI) on human cases of Vector-Borne Diseases, for the period from November 1, 2021 through October 31, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a nonfinancial agreement.

BACKGROUND:

The California Health and Safety Code Section 120175 authorizes the County’s Health Officer to take measures as may be necessary to prevent the spread of infectious or communicable diseases or the occurrence of additional cases. Approval of this agreement will allow the County to share PHI with Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District to protect the community from diseases spread by mosquitoes. Optimal mosquito trapping and testing will require the sharing of PHI with Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District.  



BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
On November 8, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Memorandum of Understanding Agreement #28-887 with Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District to allow the County to share protected health information with the Contra Costa Vector Control District, for the period November 1, 2016 though October 31, 2021.  
  
Approval of Memorandum of Understanding #28-887-1 will allow the County to continue to share protected health information to protect the community from diseases spread by mosquitoes, through October 31, 2026.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the residents of Contra Costa County will not have an additional level of protection from diseases spread by mosquitoes.
