SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — San Diego County health officials say the county’s contact tracing program has not been hampered by the same issues plaguing efforts in other areas like New York City, but there may be blind spots in the county’s data.One of the keys to successful contact tracing is eliciting a full list of close contacts from an individual who tests positive. A “close contact” is defined as someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for at least 15 minutes, beginning 48 hours before illness appeared and lasting until the patient was isolated.It’s sensitive work, but the breadth of that list is critical to suppression efforts. “By identifying or ‘tracing’ the contacts of people infected with COVID-19, we can identify other individuals who might be infected, test those individuals for infection, treat those who are also infected and trace their contacts as well,” the county says on its website.However, in New York City, only 35% of the residents who tested positive actually provided information about their close contacts to tracers during the first two weeks of June, the New York Times reported.That means that even if tracers were able to reach virtually all of the individuals on their list, they would still likely have a vastly incomplete picture of those who may be at risk.That’s where San Diego’s first potential blind spot comes in. Unlike New York City, San Diego County is not actively monitoring the percentage of individuals who provide information on close contacts to tracers, County Medical Director Dr. Eric McDonald said Monday.“We don’t specifically follow that metric,” he said. “We think we’re probably doing better than the numbers you hear from New York. It’s difficult though for us to drill down on that specifically.”Instead, the county bases one of its triggers on attempts to reach the close contacts it has on file, regardless of how complete or incomplete that list may be, and regardless of whether tracers actually got in touch with those individuals -- a second potential blind spot.McDonald acknowledged that tracers are often given out-of-date or inaccurate contact information, and must rely on public records and other sources to try to reach out to close contacts.As of Monday, the county had attempted to contact 87% of known close contacts within 24 hours, well above the county’s goal of 70%.“I think we’re doing pretty well from the contact tracing perspective,” McDonald said of that metric.“I would say the general gestalt from talking to our contact tracers is that most individuals are actually quite cooperative and do give as best information as they can about close contacts. And we really do appreciate that,” he added.McDonald said that staff would reexamine the county’s database in light of the inquiry by ABC 10News, and on Tuesday a spokeswoman provided an update. “Approximately 60 percent of our cases identify one or more close contacts,” said communications officer Sarah Sweeney.Assuming that every person who tests positive has at least one close contact, it means San Diego County disease detectives are placing calls to -- at most -- 52% of close contacts within the first 24 hours.McDonald said while that tracers do not get close contact information from everyone, there are circumstances when a close contact is simply a household member and has no other unique close contacts to follow up on.“Some close contacts don’t need to be identifying any other close contacts,” he said. “Overall, I would say that our cooperation is good to excellent.”From May 4 to May 28, people who tested positive in the county identified an average of 2.2 close contacts, County Public Health Officer Dr. Wilma Wooten said at a Board of Supervisors meeting earlier this month.Whether tracers actually reach those individuals is another story.“I’m a person who thinks it would be great to have perfection: every single person telling us every single thing that they know. But I think that we are doing very well from the information we are getting from our close contact investigations,” McDonald said Tuesday. 4089

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- Rep. Susan Davis of the 53rd Congressional District won’t seek re-election in 2020, the Congresswoman announced Wednesday. Davis was first elected to Congress in 2000. “I have struggled to make this very difficult decision. I will not seek another term in Congress. My decision today represents a desire to live and work ‘at home’ in San Diego,” she said. Davis is currently the second highest-ranking Democrat on both the House Education and Labor Committee and the House Armed Service Committee. Among measures recently supported by Davis is the Green New Deal, introduced by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She also helped spearhead the repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell,” a Clinton-era policy which allowed LGTBQ people to serve in the military only if they remained in the closet.“It makes us a better military, a better country, and I was very happy to be a part of that,” said Davis.So far, only two other candidates have officially entered the race. Jose Caballero, a Navy veteran, filed earlier this year and has raised ,900 as of June.Joaquín Vázquez, the son of undocumented immigrants, has also filed to run, but has not submitted any fundraising documents yet to the FEC.Both are Democrats with no previous experience as elected officials.In 2018, Davis faced off against Republican challenger, Morgan Murtaugh, beating her by a nearly 40% margin. Murtaugh has not announced whether or not she plans to run again.Rep. Scott Peters of the 52nd Congressional District released the following statement after the announcement: 1568

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Researchers are deploying a specially-trained canine to help search for koalas in Australia affected by the country's wildfires.The San Diego Zoo-backed team is using "Smudge," a dog trained to follow the scent of koalas, to locate the animals who have survived Australia's devastating fires in the Blue Mountains.“We don’t know how much wildlife is left in the wake of these fires,” said Kellie Leigh, a San Diego Zoo Global-supported researcher. “In many places, the fire burned so hot that it even melted metal road signs, we don’t expect to find survivors there. However, we are getting reports of koalas turning up in new locations; they are on the move due to the fires. There are likely to be unburnt patches of native habitat that would provide refuges for koalas and a range of other threatened species."Smudge is just one of the many dogs being used to sniff out koalas in the wake of the country's fires that have decimated the wildlife population. According to CNN, the dogs are able to smell koalas and their droppings, and identify where live koalas may be located among the burnt ruins of bush land.RELATED:Here's how you can help the victims of the Australian wildfiresSan Diego Zoo Global supports koala recovery amid devastating Australia wildfiresNorth County woman crochets pouches for injured Australian animalsAs Smudge and his handler, Kim, make their way through the region, they'll assess how many koalas have survived and what aid is needed to help the population recover.The area is of the utmost importance for koalas since it contains the most genetically diverse population of the animals in the world. About 2.5 million acres of the region have been affected by the fires.“We need to find out where koalas might have survived,and work out how many we have left—to guide search and rescue efforts, and also to plan for helping koala populations to recover,” Leigh added. “We know that wildlife detection dogs out perform humans when it comes to finding wildlife that can be hard to see, like koalas up in the tree canopy. Smudge and his handler,Kim, area critical part of our team.”Around the country, more than 15 million acres of land have been scorched, killing millions of animals.San Diego Zoo Global has also started fund raising to support the recovery of koalas, platypuses, and other species.
