COVID-19 ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion Funding
Award Number COVID-19ELC69
County of Fresno
Dear Dr. Rais Vohra:
This letter covers the reimbursement for the ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion funding
through the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021,
P.L. 1 16-260, to provide additional critical support as we continue to address COVID-19
within our communities. Funding for these activities is covered for the period beginning
January 15, 2021 to July 31, 2023. The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is
allocating $50,690,289 to County of Fresno.
Like the work supported by ELC Enhancing Detection, this funding expands support of
testing, case investigation and contact tracing, surveillance, containment, and
mitigation. Although this funding spans the same six Strategies as the ELC Enhancing
Detection funds allocated in early August 2020, there has been a significant amount of
additional allowable activities added to each of those Strategies. You are encouraged
to review the Guidance document (Attachment 4), specifically the red font which
highlights additional allowable activities within each Strategy beginning on page 9.
Funding:
The funding term is January 15, 2021 to July 31, 2023. CDPH will evaluate spending at
the local level in January 2022. CDPH, in consultation with the California Conference of
Local Health Officers and California Health Executives Association of California, will
consider options for possible redirection of funds at that time.

Submission Requirements:
1. Complete a Workplan and Spend Plan by March 31, 2021 and submit to CDPH at:
CDPHELC@cdph.ca.gov. See Attachments I and 2. Your Agency should consider the
following when developing your Workplan and Spend Plan:
• It is recommended that your Agency fund an administrative position to ensure
fiscal accountability and reporting requirements of the various ELC funds.
• Your Agency must work in coordination with tribal governments, community-
based organizations, and faith-based organizations, particularly those with
experience with high-risk populations based upon county COVID-19
surveillance data. There is no explicit cap or percentage that must go to these
partners; however, you must reach out to them and enlist their help where it
makes sense (i.e. outreach, testing strategy, education, or housing, etc.).
• Your Agency is encouraged to recruit and give hiring preference to
unemployed workers, underemployed workers, and applicants from local
communities disproportionately affected by COVID-19, who are qualified to
perform the work. In addition, you are encouraged to work with applicants
from your community when executing contracts and other services.
• Your Agency's Equity Targeted Investment Plan is on a tab embedded within
your workplan labeled "Health Equity". These plans are used to reflect equity
activities across all ELC strategies. Please see Attachment 6 for additional
information and instructions for completing this portion of your workplan. Please
also include in the packet your vaccine equity plan (due to CDPH earlier in
March) which should describe the network equity capacity that currently exists
in your jurisdiction; as well as potential and future potential to administer
vaccines in the jurisdiction's Health Equity Quartile zip codes. The vaccine
equity plan should also include the locations and populations being served, a
description of the jurisdiction's strategies/activities/educational approaches
with community partners to reflect strategies/activities/educational
approaches; as well as identification of other support needs to reach
disproportionately impacted populations in the Health Equity Quartile zip
codes.
• CDC guidance allows ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion funding to be used
for expenses that compliment other CDC vaccine delivery efforts, such as staff,
contractors, call centers, storage, and other infrastructure needs. Your Agency
should prioritize vaccine specific funding and then determine how best to
incorporate vaccine-related activities with this funding through your workplan.
Reporting Requirements:
As a subrecipient of the COVID-19 ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion funding, the CDC
requires submission of the following reporting documents. Additionally, CDPH will require
additional data metric reporting related to Strategy 5 (contact tracing and isolation and
quarantine activities). For your convenience, your Contract Manager will issue reminders
as these dates get closer.
1. Submit quarterly progress reports to CDPH following the schedule below to provide
status of timelines, goals, and objectives outlined in your workplan. Reporting must
include a list of tribal governments, community-based organizations, and faith-
based organizations that your Agency has included in its efforts. See Attachment
1. Note, if your workplan is under review by CDPH and has not been approved by
the progress report due date, you are still required to submit your progress report to
CDPH.

Final May 1, 2023-July 31, 2023 August 31, 2023
2. Submit monthly expenditure reports on the last day of each month, beginning on
April 30, 2021. Expenditure reporting should be completed within your Spend
Plan. Note, if your spend plan is under review by CDPH and has not been
approved by the reporting due date, you are still required to submit your
expenditure report to CDPH.
3. For Agencies not using the CalCONNECT Contact Tracing data management
system comprehensively for all of their COVID-19 cases, there may be additional
reporting required on a monthly basis related to Strategy 5 activities. CDPH will
provide a template to use to facilitate the reporting of these additional data
metrics.
Reimbursement/Invoicing:
CDPH will reimburse your Agency upon receipt of invoice. In order to receive your
reimbursements, please complete and submit your invoice(s) to:
CDPHELC@cdph.ca.aov. See Attachment 3.
1 . First Quarter Payment: CDPH will issue a warrant (check) to your Agency for 25% of
your total allocation, this will be issued as an advance payment.
2. Future payments will be based on reimbursement of expenditures once the 25%
advance payment has been fully expended. In order to receive future payments,
your Agency must complete and submit reporting documentation within
Attachments 1 and 2 following the due dates above within Reporting Requirements.
3. Your Agency must maintain supporting documentation for any expenditures
invoiced to CDPH against this source of funding. Documentation should be readily
available in the event of an audit or upon request from CDPH. Documentation
should be maintained onsite for five years.
Thank you for the time your Agency has and will continue to invest in this response. We
are hopeful that this additional funding can support the needs of your local health
jurisdiction and that it provides adequate resources for your participation in ELC
Enhancing Detection Expansion activities. CDPH is hosting a webinar on Friday, March 5t"
at 1:30pm to go over the requirements and activities of this funding. If you have any
questions or need further clarification, please reach out to CDPHELC@cdr)h.co.gov.

PROJECT
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
*Note:As the 'ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion'guidance is intended to build upon the prior work supported under
'ELC Enhancing Detection'. this guidance contains the language from the 'ELC Enhancing Detection'guidance. In
instances where sections and activities have been expanded, the language will appear in red font;whereas, language left
unaltered will remain in black font.
This guidance is intended to provide details regarding$19.11 billion from the Coronavirus Response and Relief
Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021, P.L. 116-260,that will be provided to ELC recipients early in 2021. While the
activities largely build upon those under Enhancing Detection,specific details of the guidance should be reviewed in
total for important context and clarification.
As part of the CARES Act and Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act supplements,the ELC
awarded approximately$11 billion in 2020 to help address the domestic response to COVID-19. To provide additional
critical support to jurisdictions as they continue to address COVID-19 within their communities,$19.11 billion from the
Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021, P.L. 116-260,will be provided to ELC
recipients. These additional resources, by law, are intended to "prevent, prepare for,and respond to coronavirus" by
supporting testing, case investigation and contact tracing, surveillance, containment,and mitigation. Such activities may
include support for workforce, epidemiology, use by employers, elementary and secondary schools, child care facilities,
institutions of higher education, long-term care facilities, or in other settings,scale up of testing by public health,
academic,commercial, and hospital laboratories, and community-based testing sites, mobile testing units, health care
facilities, and other entities engaged in COVID-19 testing, and other activities related to COVID-19 testing,case

investigation and contact tracing,surveillance, containment, and mitigation (including interstate compacts or other
mutual aid agreements for such purposes).
As with the previous awards, direct recipients are limited to existing jurisdictions covered under CK19-19041. Recipients
should continue to build upon existing ELC infrastructure that emphasizes the coordination and critical integration of
laboratory with epidemiology and health information systems in order to maximize the public health impact of available
resources. It is the role of the recipient's ELC Project Director to ensure funds are used to achieve the required activities
in this guidance; and to guarantee these new funds do not duplicate financial support through prior awards.These funds
are intended to complement and not duplicate resources from any other federal source, including those previously
awarded via the ELC Cooperative Agreement. Similarly,these resources are not intended to be applied without
foresight, consideration for, and planning to address future infectious disease events.
Ongoing monitoring of milestones and performance measures will be utilized to gauge progress toward successful
completion of priority activities supported with these funds. Recipients will again be required to complete and submit
Jurisdictional Testing, Case Investigation, and Contact Tracing Plans (please note that these may be published on the
HHS website: https://www.hhs.gov/coronavirus/testing-plans/index.html). The following guidance outlines other
specific details and requirements accompanying the resources.
JURISDICTIONAL TESTING, CASE INVESTIGATION, AND CONTACT TRACING PLANS
Utilizing the provided template, located in REDCap, recipients will update information regarding the overall testing
landscape within their jurisdiction. This exercise should be done in partnership with state/jurisdictional leadership(e.g.,
public health, emergency management,State Health Official, local health departments,etc.) and should reflect the
approach to testing at a broad jurisdictional level, including tribal needs as appropriate. For example,testing done at
public health, clinical and/or commercial labs should be included as well as approaches for reaching communities placed
at greater risk for COVID-19, and the application and use of various types of testing for detection and/or surveillance
(antigen, molecular,and serology)and inform contact investigation and tracing efforts.These plans should include
aspects of advanced molecular detection (AMD)technologies to inform and drive investigations utilizing molecular
epidemiology techniques.
Jurisdictions must provide details regarding their robust SARS-CoV-2 testing,case investigation,and contact tracing
program that ensures adequate testing is made available according to CDC priorities, including but not limited to:
diagnostic tests,tests for close contacts of cases, and expanded screening testing for asymptomatic persons to identify
and isolate infectious individuals and monitor community spread. Recipients should assure that provisions are in place
to meet future surge capacity testing needs including point-of-care or other rapid testing for outbreaks. Plans should
include provisions for testing at, and reporting from, non-traditional sites (e.g.,schools, retail sites, community centers,
residential medical facilities,or pharmacies);testing of populations at higher risk of becoming infected with SARS-CoV-2
due to high frequency of residential,occupational or nonoccupational contacts; and should also address any essential
partnerships with academic,commercial, and hospital laboratories to successfully meet testing demand.
In conjunction with optimizing testing and increasing test volumes for COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2, resources will support the
establishment of modernized,timely(real-time) public health surveillance (e.g.,to help support case investigation and
contact tracing) and health information systems.These systems will support the public health response to COVID-19 and
1 Only current ELC recipients are eligible to receive awards associated with the supplement described in this guidance. While tribal
nations are not included in these awards,other federal support is provided in the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental
Appropriations Act of 2021.

lay the foundation for the future of public health surveillance.
Establishing systems and processes to report the data categories described in this document on a daily,automated basis
to state and federal health systems is a requirement of accepting these funds, if such systems are not already in place.
These systems must be transparent and visible to communities through an open website. For each data category,data
elements will be specified by CDC for each reportable condition (e.g., race/ethnicity)at a later date. Both existing and
newly established surveillance and data reporting systems must:
1. Ensure that real-time, at least daily, complete and accurate test orders and results can be exchanged within the
healthcare/public health system and simultaneously reported to CDC and others via automated systems in a
machine-readable format.These systems must support reporting of test results at the county or zip code level
with additional data fields as specified by CDC [e.g.,Ask on Entry(AOE) questions].This includes not only testing
for the presence of virus(nucleic acid or antigen testing), but also serological testing documenting past
infection.
2. Ensure real-time, at least daily, complete, automated reporting in a machine-readable format for the following
data categories: case, hospitalization and death reporting; emergency department syndromic surveillance; and
capacity, resources,and patient impact at healthcare facilities through electronic reporting.
3. Support the display of up-to-date, critical public health information relating to COVID-19 and future outbreaks at
the county or zip code level in visual dashboards or tables on county or state websites, including case data and
syndromic surveillance data.
Enhancements to epidemiologic activities resulting from additional test data are also fundamental to controlling the
spread of COVID-19. Recipients must accelerate efforts to conduct robust case investigation and contact tracing and
then identify and isolate new cases of COVID-19 among symptomatic or asymptomatic individuals.This information
should be further utilized to understand COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 transmission within a community and determine
appropriate mitigation strategies.
FUNDING STRATEGY
Funding by jurisdiction will be based on population, as provided in the legislative language for the Coronavirus Response
and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021
(https://rules.house.gov/sites/democrats.rules.house.gov/files/BILLS-116HR133SA-RCP-116-68.pdf).
Direct Assistance is authorized under CK19-19042; however,should opportunities for direct assistance be made
available,these will be shared broadly with our recipient base and options for providing direct assistance in lieu of
financial assistance may be discussed and coordinated with the ELC Project Officer and the CDC Office of Grant Services
(OGS).
2Legislative Authority for CK19-1904: Sections 301 and 317 of the Public Health Service Act(PHS Act),42 USC sections 241 and 247b,
as amended;and funding is, in part,appropriated under Affordable Care Act(PL 111-148),Title IV,Section 4002(Prevention and
Public Health Fund),Title IV,Section 4002.

ALLOWABLE COSTS
Recipients should consider requesting the following when developing budgets, in furtherance of award activities.The
financial resources provided are required, by law,to support activities intended to address prevention and response to
COVI D-19.
1. Personnel (term,temporary,students,overtime, contract staff, etc.).
2. Laboratory equipment and necessary maintenance contracts.
3. Collection supplies,test kits, reagents, consumables and other necessary supplies for existing testing or onboarding
new platforms.
4. Courier service contracts (new or expansion of existing agreements).
5. Hardware and software necessary for robust implementation of electronic laboratory and surveillance data
exchange between recipient and other entities, including healthcare entities,jurisdictional public health and CDC.
6. Tools that assist in the rapid identification,electronic reporting, monitoring, analysis, and evaluation of control
measures to reduce the spread of disease (e.g. GIS software,visualization dashboards, cloud services).
7. Contracts with academic institutions, private laboratories,other non-commercial healthcare entities, and/or
commercial entities.
8. Renovations and minor construction (e.g.,alteration of less than 50%total square footage of an existing structure;
installation of a concrete slab for modular laboratory units;etc.) may be considered for unique cases where
conditions do not currently allow for safe or effective testing and/or delivery of effective public health services.
9. Leasing/purchasing vehicles(e.g., mobile testing, providing public health services in underserved areas, etc.). Note:
Recipients will need to submit quotes with their revised budgets that are due within 60 days of award issuance and
receive prior approval from OGS.After the revised NOA is issued, any further request for leasing/purchasing must be
made through GrantSolutions and include the necessary quotes.
10. Software or systems to assist with laboratory resource management(e.g.,software for inventory management,
temperature notifications, etc.), quality management, biosafety or training needs.
11. Quarantine and isolation support necessary for preventing the spread of COVID-19(including wraparound services
such as hoteling,food, laundry, mental health services,etc.).
12. Stipends/incentives may be considered to encourage participation in testing and/or vaccination coverage for those
put at higher risk for COVID-19 (individual level) or for facilities/agencies to enroll and/or report data to the health
department(institutional level). Recipients interested in exploring this option (individual and/or institutional) must
submit a plan that covers all of the following elements: (a)justification, (b)cost savings [e.g., how it will defray costs
or have a positive return on investment], (c) defined amount, (d) qualifications for issuance, and (e) method of
tracking.When submitting the revised budget within 60 days of award issuance, stipend/incentive plans must be
included in the 'budget justification'section of the ELC budget workbook and receive CDC approval before
implementation.After the revised NOA is issued, any subsequent requests for using funds to support
stipends/incentives must be made in GrantSolutions, including the stipend/incentive plan, and receive CDC approval
before implementation.
13. Resources to complement, but not duplicate,other CDC vaccine delivery efforts (e.g.,those activities covered under
IP19-1901). Costs can include infrastructure needs(e.g.,staff, contractors,call centers, storage,space,etc.)that
support testing as well as vaccination operations.
14. Health communications materials and health education services to inform and protect communities are allowable, if
they do not duplicate activities covered by other CDC funding mechanisms(e.g., IP21-2106, IP21-2107). Recipients
are reminded to be cognizant of the statutory and policy requirements for acknowledging the HHS/CDC funding
when issuing statements, press releases, publications, requests for proposal, bid solicitations and other documents.
In accordance with CDC General Terms and Conditions for Non-research Awards-Acknowledgement of Federal
Funding, in your base award.
4 1 P a g e
ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion Guidance- 1/12/2021
15. Expenses associated with outreach and assistance (e.g.,support provided through community-based organizations)
for those put at higher risk for COVID-19.
The above list covers the anticipated, most relevant costs associated with achieving the activities in this guidance. This
list does not represent a full list of allowable costs. Recipients are referred to the cost principles regulation found at 45
CFR Part 75 Subpart E—Cost Principles.
In determining if costs are allowable, consideration must be given to applicable grant regulations,the overall underlying
cooperative agreement(CK19-1904);be considered necessary and reasonable;and be considered allocable(see:45 CFR
75.403 .Any questions about specific budget items should be directed to the OGS and the ELC Project Officer.
SUPPORT TO LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS (LHD)
As with previous support provided for COVID-19 activities, recipients should work with their local health departments
(LHDs)to determine how local needs will be addressed with the overall available resources. Direct ELC recipients are
strongly encouraged to provide financial resources to LHDs within their jurisdiction by way of a contract or other
mechanism(s)that may be available through their health department. In addition to financial resources,directly funded
recipients may also provide support to LHDs through offering non-financial resources(personnel,supplies, etc.) to
address COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 testing,surveillance, case detection, reporting, response, and prevention needs at the
local level. When completing the revised budget, in the ELC budget workbook,there is a state/local health department
allocation section that must be completed accurately to allow tracking of direct and indirect support to LHDs. During the
quarterly workplan milestone progress reporting, recipients must provide reports, in the REDCap monitoring portal, on
progress in supporting LHDs (e.g., on-track or barriers and proposed remedies,etc.)along with amount of funding
(direct and/or indirect)to LHDs at time of reporting.
The ELC Program Office will continue to monitor spending and programmatic performance,which will be reported to
CDC and HHS leadership, and others as appropriate and necessary, on progress and barriers experienced by recipients
(see HHS regulation on performance measurement 45 CFR 75.301). Information regarding resources provided to local
jurisdictions should be made available to the ELC Project Officer during regular monitoring calls and if issues arise that
require action on the part of the recipient or CDC(e.g.,significant delays by a local health department when submitting
documentation to the state for reimbursement). In circumstances where CDC finds lessons learned from programmatic
performance,such as successful or unsuccessful strategies,these may be shared with other recipients.
SUPPORTING MANAGEMENT OF ACTIVITIES AND RESOURCES
The ELC Program Office strongly recommends that recipients ensure ELC leadership staff at the recipient level are
adequate for the management of this award and its integration with the recipient's overall portfolio of ELC funded
activities. A minimum of 1 program manager and 1 budget staff(or equivalents) is suggested for the effective
management and implementation of the recipients' proposed activities. Depending on the recipient's current capacity
for managing both existing COVID-19 funds and these funds associated with this award,the program manager and
budget staff may consist of full-time or additional part-time support to achieve the necessary monitoring and
management requirements.

ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion Guidance-1/12/2021
PROCESS FOR WORKPLAN AND BUDGET SUBMISSION
Within five(5) business days of receipt of this guidance the Authorized Official is required to acknowledge receipt of this
guidance by submitting a Grant Note in GrantSolutions.The acknowledgement must be submitted on the recipient's
official agency letterhead and utilize the'Acknowledgement Letter for CK19-1904—COVID Supplemental Funds'
template provided at the end of this guidance document.
This funding should support activities and the necessary reporting for Budget Period 2 (BP2) under CK19-1904.This
supplemental funding is for a 30% month project period and will end on July 31, 2023.The expanded project period
coincides with the end of Budget Period 4(BP4) of the ELC Cooperative Agreement(CK19-1904);therefore, workplans
and revised budgets should reflect activities and associated costs that will end on July 31, 2023. Recipients are reminded
that expanded authority3 applies, and funding may be extended to subsequent budget periods to cover the activities
until July 31, 2023. Within 60 days of receipt of the Notice of Award (NOA),the recipient is required to submit a
workplan and revised budget describing its proposed activities. Upon submission, budgets and workplans will be
reviewed by CDC and feedback will be provided and discussed with the recipient. Any necessary or recommended
changes may be agreed upon between the recipient and CDC and documented in REDCap; and any agreed upon changes
must be captured in GrantSolutions,the system of record,as necessary.
To appropriately document workplans, budgets, and facilitate recipients meeting the 60-day requirement:
1. Workplan entries will be completed in the ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion 'ELC ED Expansion' page, under'ELC
COVID-19 Projects' portal, in REDCap; and
2. Revised budgets must be completed by using the Excel budget workbook template provided via GrantSolutions
Grant Notes at time of NOA issuance. Note: If a recipient does not meet the 60-day submission requirement and has
not received written approval for an extension from CDC,then the Payment Management System (PMS) account
associated with this award will be restricted.The restriction will result in a manual drawdown process that requires
CDC approval of each PMS charge.This restriction will remain in effect until the recipient satisfactorily meets the
workplan and budget submission requirement.
a. Funds will be awarded under the 'Other'cost category and will be accessible in the Payment Management
System (PMS) during the 60-day budget revision period for use in accomplishing activities outlined in this
guidance;
b. Recipients will adjust the cost category allocations of awarded funds to reflect the areas where financial
assistance is needed;
c. Recipients will upload the revised budget into GrantSolutions via a budget revision amendment,with a
courtesy copy into REDCap'ELC ED Expansion Financials' page of the 'ELC COVID-19 Projects' portal, by the
60-day post award deadline; and
d. The ELC Project Officer and OGS will process the budget revision amendment in GrantSolutions and the
recipient will receive a revised NOA reflecting the requested cost category allocations.
3. A letter, indicating that all ELC Governance Team members(i.e., Project Director, Epidemiology Lead, Laboratory
Lead, Health Information Systems Lead, and Financial Lead) have both contributed to and agreed upon the workplan
and revised budget submitted, must be signed by all Governance Team Members(hard copy or digital signature)and
submitted with the documents in the REDCap portal.
3 Expanded Authority is provided to recipients through 45 CFR Part 75.308,which allows carryover of unobligated balances from one
budget period to a subsequent budget period. Unobligated funds may be used for purposes within the scope of the project as
originally approved. Recipients will report use,or intended use,of unobligated funds in Section 12"Remarks"of the annual Federal
Financial Report.

Both CDC and recipients should appropriately coordinate with points of contact in relevant stakeholder organizations to
maximize the impact of federal dollars [e.g.,tribal nations, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), HHS
Testing and Diagnostics Working Group, etc.].
ACTIVITIES
Data collected as a part of the Activities supported with these funds shall be reported to CDC in the form and fashion
determined by CDC. Recipients are required to establish electronic reporting systems to support comprehensive, timely,
automated reporting of these data to LHD, CDC and others, at a frequency determined by CDC, if such systems are not
already in place. Such systems must support reporting for COVID-19, other conditions of public health significance.
Note:These additional resources are intended to be directed toward testing, case investigation and contact tracing,
surveillance, containment, and mitigation, including support for workforce, epidemiology, use by employers, elementary
and secondary schools,child care facilities, institutions of higher education, long-term care facilities, or in other settings,
scale up of testing by public health,academic, commercial,and hospital laboratories, and community-based testing
sites, mobile testing units, health care facilities, and other entities engaged in COVID-19 testing, and other related
activities related to COVID-19 testing, case investigation and contact tracing,surveillance, containment, and mitigation
which may include interstate compacts or other mutual aid agreements for such purposes.
The following programmatic workplan activities are required and must be completed by the public health department
and/or public health laboratory. Note: If a recipient does not address all the required activities in the workplan,then
the workplan will be considered incomplete. If the workplan is not complete by the 60-day submission requirement, and
has not received written approval for an extension from CDC,then the Payment Management System (PMS) account
associated with this award will be restricted.The restriction will result in a manual drawdown process that requires CDC
approval of each PMS charge.This restriction will remain in effect until the recipient satisfactorily meets the workplan
requirement.
The 'ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion'workplans will be started in REDCap for recipients through use of the 'ELC
Enhancing Detection'workplans. Recipients will then build upon the workplans, in REDCap, to establish their'ELC
Enhancing Detection Expansion'workplans. If activities were not previously addressed in 'ELC Enhancing Detection'
workplans, recipients are required to update 'ELC Enhancing Detection Expansion'workplans and respond to all activities.
Certain activities or purchases will require recipients to work with ELC HIS prior to the start of implementation.

meet increases in testing demand in a timely manner. Laboratories are strongly encouraged to diversify
their testing platforms to enable them to pivot depending on reagent and supply availabilities.
c. Perform serology testing with an FDA EUA authorized serological assay in order to conduct surveillance for
past infection and monitor community exposure.
d. Work with LHDs, including through sub-awards,to build local capacity for testing of COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2
including within high-risk settings or in vulnerable populations that reside in their communities.
e. Apply laboratory safety methods to ensure worker safety when managing and testing samples that may
contain SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19.
f. Implement alternative surveillance methods, including sequencing,wastewater surveillance, regional
testing centers for surveillance and screening, etc. and link with other relevant surveillance systems(e.g.,
immunization registry). [This activity is optional and should complement other already funded activities.]
g. Augment or add specificity to existing laboratory response plans for future coronavirus and other outbreak
responses caused by an infectious disease.
h. Support national surveillance for SARS-CoV-2 by submitting representative,deidentified samples to CDC for
sequencing through the National SARS-CoV-2 Strain Surveillance(NS3) program.
Note: CDC has issued guidance elsewhere on specifics of the submission of samples and metadata
(see https://www.aphl.org/sars2seg), but in general: unless otherwise indicated,samples submitted
for NS3 should be from separate cases, unrelated to each other and that represent typical cases
of COVID-19 in the jurisdiction.The number of samples requested is reflective of a minimum
number of samples needed for long term surveillance,with adjustments for population and other
factors. Please work with the CDC NS3 surveillance team to develop a sustainable sampling plan
for your jurisdiction.
i. Expand the use of SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequencing and molecular epidemiology for state and local
surveillance and response.
Note:Timely access to viral genomic sequence data can be a critically important tool in
responding to outbreaks; assessing transmission pathways, mechanisms and risk; determining the
effectiveness of public health control measures; positioning state and local public health
resources; and in supporting policy decisions.CDC encourages the expanded role of sequence
data in support of state, local and regional public health priorities, especially when they are done
in coordination with national sequencing efforts such as SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing for Public Health
Emergency Response, Epidemiology and Surveillance(SPHERES).These efforts could include rapid
sequencing and analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genomes by contractors and staff within the public health
laboratory itself,through the expansion of laboratory capacity,workforce or bioinformatics
capabilities (including improved access to cloud computing resources), or through the
establishment or expansion of partnerships with academia and the private sector.
2. Enhance laboratory testing capacity for SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 outside of public health laboratories
