EXECUTIVE ORDER S-22-09

10/06/2009

 

 

            WHEREAS on April 28, 2009, following a report from the

World Health Organization that an outbreak of H1N1 Influenza in Mexico

had caused multiple deaths and confirmation from the United States

Center for Disease Control of cases of the disease in California, I

proclaimed a State of Emergency to exist in the State of California;

and

 

 

            WHEREAS the Secretary of the United States Department of

Health and Human Services declared a nationwide public health

emergency as a consequence of confirmed cases of H1N1 Influenza in the

            WHEREAS the World Health Organization has raised its

pandemic alert for the H1N1 Influenza Virus to phase 6; and

 

 

            WHEREAS the H1N1 Influenza virus has now spread throughout

the world and cases have been reported in all California counties;

and

 

 

            WHEREAS public and private schools from the kindergarten

vaccines at the beginning of October, 2009 to the California

Department of Public Health for allocation to local distribution

points; and

 

 

            WHEREAS there will not be sufficient vaccine initially to

vaccinate all Californians, and vaccine will first be allocated for

administration to priority target populations to minimize the spread

of H1N1 Influenza and to reduce the potential for morbidity and

mortality from the virus; and

 

 

            WHEREAS it is essential that the public, including

healthcare practitioners, be informed about the H1N1 Influenza, the

need to observe hygiene and other practices to prevent the spread of

the virus, the vaccines, the vaccination program, and the importance

of receiving a vaccination when vaccine becomes available for each

target population; and

 

 

            WHEREAS a large number of contracts will need to be

executed in a very short time to carry out activities to respond to

the H1N1 Influenza pandemic, including but not limited to the

distribution of vaccine, as well as the tracking of vaccine

administration and other activities related to the program to immunize

all Californians; and

 

 

            WHEREAS the State of Emergency proclaimed on April 28,

2009 continues to exist, and it is essential in order to mitigate the

effects of that emergency to issue orders to facilitate emergency

response.

 

 

            NOW, THEREFORE, I, ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, Governor of the

State of California, in accordance with the authority vested in me by

the Constitution and statutes of the State of California, including

the Emergency Services Act and in particular Government Code sections

8567 and 8571, do hereby issue the following orders to become

effective immediately:

 

            IT IS ORDERED THAT that all agencies and departments of

state government utilize and employ state personnel, equipment, and

facilities as necessary to assist the California Department of Public

Health and the Emergency Medical Services Authority in immediately

performing any and all activities designed to distribute vaccine, to

administer and monitor vaccinations, and take such other actions as

these agencies deem necessary to carry out an effective vaccination

program, consistent with the State Emergency Plan as coordinated by

the California Emergency Management Agency.

 

            IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the California Health and Human

Services Agency and all departments and offices within that agency, as

well as the California Emergency Management Agency, the Department of

Veterans’ Affairs, the Highway Patrol, the Department of Forestry and

Fire Protection, the Department of General Services, and the

Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation enter into such contracts

as they deem appropriate to provide services, material, personnel and

equipment for the purpose of responding to the H1N1 Influenza

pandemic; including, but not limited to, distributing vaccine,

administering and monitoring vaccinations, and supplementing the

extraordinary preventive measures implemented by local jurisdictions

if needed.

Forestry and Fire Protection, the Department of General Services, and

the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation deem necessary to

carry out an effective vaccination program and such other measures as

may be necessary to respond to the H1N1 Influenza pandemic, to the

extent that such laws would prevent, hinder, or delay prompt

mitigation of the effects of this emergency.

 

 

            IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, pursuant to Government Code

section 8567 to ensure adequate availability of technical personnel, I

am invoking Standby Order Number 1, which waives the period of time

permissible for emergency appointments for the hiring of necessary

emergency personnel.

 

 

 

            This Order is not intended to create, and does not create,

any rights or benefits, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law

or in equity, against the State of California, its agencies,

departments, entities, officers, employees or any other person.

I will say the school my son attends actually sent home paperwork that says if you don't return the paperwork signed, then your child won't be vaccinated - i marked out ALL their signature lines and wrote in marker all over it that my son was NOT to be vaccinated, i didn't give the medical information they requested so i'm hoping they are true to their word, my son knows he's not to be vaccinated (and agrees), he knows that if they try to force it on him, he has my permission to be disobedient and the office and counselors and nurse know i don't approve, so i'm hoping we don't have any trouble - my son's school is doing BOTH the regular flu vaccine AND the swine flu vaccine and i approve of NEITHER!bobbie--- On Sun, 10/18/09, Mary Ostrowski <mary wrote:Mary Ostrowski <maryRe: {Herbal Remedies} Schwarzenegger: All Californians to be vaccinatedherbal remedies Date: Sunday, October 18, 2009, 8:26 PM

Chances are he'll be #1 & personally rally for the rest to get in line- because he sincerely believes it's the "right" thing to do...(Haven't we all been there at least once? Trusted the wrong person/people because they're "experts" and/ or knowledgeable, etc...)He loves CA & our nation & has tried VERY hard to make both better...(At least, that's my 2¢'s worth...) :oP
