COMMUNITY AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

All New Hampshire counties are now demonstrating a “substantial” level of community spread according to the state health definition. Officials recommended universal masking indoors in counties or cities with a level of community transmission considered “substantial” or when there is a larger outbreak or multiple clusters in a school facility. Benjamin Chan said there can be exceptions for classrooms or schools with a higher vaccination rate, universal testing programs or other measures like strictly enforced physical distancing. He said face masks would be optional in areas with community transmission levels considered “moderate” or “minimal,” or when there are sporadic cases in a school with no evidence of facility transmission. Chan emphasized that these were recommendations, not requirements.  Rockingham County is listed as “Substantial” for transmissions. The Leadership Team may have to revisit the policy here at RBC based on the increasing Covid-19 numbers within our community. We will keep everyone informed of what is or may happen in the future but currently our policy that masks are optional is still in place. While we do not want to make any changes and are looking forward to moving forward here at RBC just be aware that this may be subject to change. Please if anyone with new and unexplained symptoms that could be COVID-19 should stay home and get tested, regardless of vaccination status.
