She reported that the science now indicated that we are contagious two days prior to showing any symptoms and an additional three days after symptoms begin. The Health Department will be updating their information and pushing out these new recommendations; however, it will take some time to change all the locations this information is listed in, so be aware that there may be conflicting, or outdated info still listed in some instances. DISCUSSION WAS HELD on vaccination rates in Henderson, approximately 55.2%; new media/social media campaigns to update the new information; the Mayor offered assistance in putting information on the City’s website; the variant is more contagious and one person can infect up to 18 people before knowing they are positive; our area has not seen a spike in infections, but an overall high steady number of cases; and when asked about mixing the types of vaccine and booster shots - the best vaccine or booster is the one you can get. ________________________ PRESENTATION: “Dr. April Abbott Video” DR. APRIL ABBOTT, Director of Microbiology and Diagnostic Laboratories at Deaconess Health System, reported that specific tests at her hospital can actually scan for three  209 CITY OF HENDERSON – RECORD BOOK Record of Minutes of A Regular Meeting on December 28, 2021 specific genes to determine the variant. Twelve percent of samples came back as the Omicron variant. Dr. Abbott indicated that, “one of the things that makes this variant unique is that it replicates at really high levels in the upper part of your lung, so it is very easily spread from person to person.” Because of that, Dr. Abbott says she expects super-spreader events to be even more likely with the variant and reminds everyone to be extremely cautious. Continue to take precautions – wear a mask, social distancing, and washing your hands. ________________________ ORDINANCE NO. 50-21: SECOND READ ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 7 – BUILDINGS AND BUILDING REGULATIONS AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 7 – BUILDINGS AND BUILDING REGULATIONS BY ADDING ARTICLE VIII – CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION, SECTIONS 7-250 THROUGH 7-256 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF HENDERSON MOTION by Commissioner Staton, seconded by Commissioner Pruitt, that the ordinance be adopted.
