  1. Hello. So today I will be discussing my proposal for
  2. a co vid mobile immunization banks and workshops program.
  3. The way that this will work is a concurring to
  4. part program, one being the workshops with a budget of
  5. $15,000 with a 30% in kind share being matched.
  6. And then a second part of the program being the
  7. immobile immunization bank, which is the $75,000 of additional district
  8. funds with a 30% in kind match from the majority
  9. of the budget, and we'll get into that later.
  10. There is a real window of opportunity with Cove in
  11. 19 vaccinations and streamline testing and production.
  12. It is crucial we engage in conversation with our community
  13. regarding feelings, beliefs and attitudes towards vaccinations, whether it be
  14. positive or negative.
  15. Schools have been opening up across the nation without complete
  16. preparedness plans, and we see them shutting down just as
  17. quickly as their opening.
  18. It is important that we acknowledge fax and data versus
  19. those who take precedence in a NW opinion, and this
  20. is what the workshop really serves to Dio.
  21. According to the Washington State Department of Health during the
  22. 18 4019 school year, there is, um, unionization rate of
  23. 86.4% in Spokane, while there was an 88.8% percent vaccination
  24. in Washington state, and that is to Washington State requirements.
  25. While these numbers do seem high, we know it requires
  26. upwards towards 95% to achieve herd immunity for diseases such
  27. as the measles.
  28. I feel this is an important subject due to the
  29. way that Spokane is broken up.
  30. Spokane County Using data from the American County Survey completed
  31. by the U.
  32. S Census Bureau, so Can County has a population of
  33. 455,000 people, with approximately 45.5% of the county's population or
  34. 207,000 people residing.
  35. Within the city of Spokane.
  36. Another 29% or 135,000 people is living in the unincorporated
  37. area of Spokane County, leaving the remaining 25% of county
  38. residents living in 12 cities and towns.
  39. Uh, Airway Heights, Chini, Deer Park, Fairfield Late, all Medical
  40. Lake. No.
  41. Would Liberty Lake, Rockford Spangle, Spokane Valley and Waverly.
  42. It's important to note the break up of the population
  43. just because we need to make a point that not
  44. everybody has the same access and availability to credible information
  45. or credible sources of information or vaccines themselves.
  46. By educating and promoting vaccination and safe practices, we will
  47. be removing those negative ideas and false opinions, or miss,
  48. if you will, about vaccinations.
  49. We will also be reducing barriers such as cost, transportation
  50. and accessibility, and availability to vaccines is participants do choose
  51. to receive one.
  52. Achieving herd immunity will positively impact the population because that
  53. means enough of the population got vaccinated to fend off
  54. the non communicable diseases for the entirety of population, whether
  55. they received the vaccine or not, this might be why
  56. we're so removed from the idea of wanting to get
  57. the vaccine is because the vaccines have worked so well
  58. in history.
  59. This aligns with the organization as we seek for the
  60. health and well being of community because a strong community
  61. and a healthy community or two in the same, I
  62. will next be going into each individual budget, starting with
  63. the coded immunization budget.
  64. We have everything from personnel, thio, equipment, facilities, supplies as
  65. well as marketing and travel.
  66. Um, the budgets will look very similar if I can
  67. go forward as their broken out.
  68. Very similarly with justifications to the right of each item,
  69. Um, we will actually have double personnel.
  70. So the personnel that you are seeing on one budget
  71. is not necessarily the same that you will be seeing
  72. on the other side of the budget.
  73. Each has been appropriately allotted enough money to have their
  74. own personnel.
  75. So as mentioned, this is a $15,000 grant with a
  76. 30% in kind sources being matched by us bringing the
  77. total of $19,900 for this entire part of the work
  78. programs workshop to move forward.
  79. And we're spending about 16,000 of that, leaving us to
  80. surplus about $3000 to go towards any where we see
  81. fit and moving into the immunization bank.
  82. We see that we did hit a little bit of
  83. a overspending in regards to our in kind sources.
  84. But with the surplus from the, um are the leftover
  85. funds from the workshop, we will a lot that to
  86. cover for that.
  87. This has been my proposal for a co vid 19
  88. immunization bank and mobile immunization bank and workshopped.
  89. Thank you for considering
