  3. 从4月10日开始，美国采取大范围检查抗体的方式来确定新冠病毒的免疫者，希望通过这种方式尽快复工，重启经济。4月11日，《纽约时报》报道了美国第一批免疫者，他们已经能安全地重返工作岗位了。其中包括38岁的华裔大学教授克莱门特·周（Clement Chow），他是犹他大学重症监护室的第一位新冠病毒患者，最近一次检测血液，证实他体内已存在抗体。来源：https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/11/us/coronavirus-survivors.html 。
  4. 州流行病学家Dunn说，在犹他州的COVID-19病例中，约28％是西班牙裔或拉丁裔，但该人口仅占全州人口的14％。 Dunn说，卫生厅要帮助减少族裔人口之间的差距，“消除阻碍人们居家隔离和自我隔绝的障碍”。 来源：https://www.sltrib.com/news/2020/04/14/live-coronavirus-updates/。
  5. 盐湖城在寻求布制面罩的捐赠。从四月十号早上九点起，在盐湖城14个消防站设立无接触的收集桶。每天晚上，盐湖城将将这些面罩收集、分类、清洗、清点，并分发给（紧急状况）响应人员和关键部门雇员。以下链接提供drop-off的地点、CDC对于面罩及其标准的信息：https://www.slc.gov/mayor/masks/ 。

  7. 4月13日，FDA (食品药品监督管理局) 批准了另外42家工厂位于中国的企业所生产的口罩获紧急使用授权（EUA），加上之前4/3许可的4家，共有46家企业，其中有20多家的KN95口罩有EUA授权，见：https://www.fda.gov/media/136663/download。

【4/14 COVID-19 Briefing by Utah Chinese Communities 6:00pm Mountain Time】

=== Safety Measures for COVID-19：Shelter in Place, Keep 6’ Distance, Stay Calm, Tele-commute and Tele-medicine. ===

  1. U.S. Confirmed Cases: 613,498(+26,491), Deaths: 26,002(+2,372), Recovered:48,137(+4,443). (https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com/).

The growth of coronavirus cases in Utah has been mainly following sub-exponential growth trend (p=0.57): http://www.castut.org/covid-19/utah0414en.png. The number of new cases has been decreasing in 5 successive days. The average growth is 6.08% per day for the last 14 days, and 4.33% for the last 7 days. Distribution in counties/areas in the format of “cases (hospitalization)”: Salt Lake 1,187 (108), Summit 306 (28), Utah 335 (18), Davis 211 (21), Weber-Morgan 104 (9), Wasatch 102 (5),  Southwest Utah 58 (9), Bear River 48 (8), Tooele 34 (4), San Juan 9 (2), TriCounty 8 (0), Central Utah 6 (1), Southeast Utah 4 (0).
  3. Since 4/10, U.S. has adopted a wide range of antibody detection methods to determine the immunity of the new coronavirus patients, hoping to resume work as soon as possible and restart the economy. On 4/11, the New York Times reported on the first group of immunizers in the nation. They were able to return to work safely. Among them is Dr. Clement Chow, a 38-year-old Chinese professor who was the first COVID-19 patient in the ICU of the University of Utah Hospital. The most recent blood test confirmed the presence of antibodies in him. Source: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/11/us/coronavirus-survivors.html 
  4. State epidemiologist Dunn said that some 28% of the COVID-19 cases in Utah are Hispanic or Latino, a population that makes up only 14% of the state’s population. UDOH aims to help limit disparities in populations, “breading down barriers that are preventing people from self-isolating and self-quarantining,” Dunn said.
