5 components of the National Pandemic Plan: - Recruit and train volunteers including retired health workers - Local authorities stock piling PPE such as masks (in 2005 they were given $$ to buy but a lot of hospitals did not purchase) - Electronic system to track hospital beds - Alternate care sites (high schools etc.) - Triage phone lines
1. 禁航和禁止国内不必要的旅行。2. 取消或暂停各种类型集会和会议。3. 保证一线医院员工的口罩和防护服。教育医院医护如何防护。4. 鼓励公司员工尽量WFH，允许学生在家上学。5. 科普民众COVID-19的危害以及如何预防，如何自测，如何就医。6. 州县市政府组织本地医疗救援。比如King County has requisitioned a Motel for isolation and will also use modular units for the cabin. 这样可以有效减少家庭聚集性传染。7. 州县市政府申请经费并自筹资金，购买急需医疗器械和药品。8. 开通更多政府热线，保证病人或疑似能得到及时诊断和治疗。

Self-edit：下面是修改过的样本，加上了咖啡因mm首贴里面的几个建议，写给我们州参议员的信。feel free make any changes as you see fit.
Dear XXX,
I am a constituent and I vote.
I have been following coronavirus news since mid-January when China initiated large-scale quarantine measures. Particularly recently, I have been very concerned about its rapid spread in the states, and it seems that the federal and local governments are not taking sufficient measures to contain the disease.
My concerns:
1. The U.S. government seems unprepared and public health messaging is muddled. The U.S. is not testing enough to have an accurate estimated case count. Without broader U.S. testing, we don't know what what we don't know.
2. Former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb just said on CNBC on March 4th that because of the lack of adequate testing in the past weeks and that we already have multiple cases of community transmission in the states, we have missed the window of opportunity for testing, but we still have the window of opportunity for mitigating, and we should seize the opportunity and no further delay any more!
3. What is your role in urging the congress and federal government to allocate funds in a timely manner to assist state and local governments in containing and mitigating the spread of COVID-19?
Particularly, I'd like to see how you help make sure efforts being put into the following areas: - Recruit and train volunteers including retired health workers - Local authorities have PPE such as masks to make sure our frontline healthcare professionals are properly protected - Electronic system to track hospital beds so that a patient can make informed decisions about if and where s/he would be able to get a bed in case the symptoms become severe enough to get professional medical care. - Alternate care sites (high schools, motels, etc. , e.g.: King county in Washington state is procuring a motel to be used as modular isolation units)

- 停学停工
- 征用地方高中楼房做隔离和基本医疗辅助用
- 其他
美国在2005建立了national pandemic plan.里面多数步骤都是地方政府执行的。建议华人mm积极联系地方政府：州长办公室，市长办公室，local cdc/health department，众议员（如果你可以投票）。

MM能share一下你的邮件模版吗？
ins，youtube，facebook，Instagram，twitter，以及各种local的网站。
消息扩散出去，让更多美国人知道。
另外给议员打电话不需要是公民。反正我以前打过，只问我邮编，没问是不是选民。
同求，谢谢！
不矛盾，两者都要做
你要打电话给议员，州政府，而不是到社交媒体上爆料。到华人上骂是最没有用的。 顶帖子也没有用。有这功夫，不如快一点打电话给州政府，只有州政府宣布紧急，学校才能停课。
美国联邦政府这时候管不了州政府的。除非最坏情况下可以宣布martial law.
这个要打电话给议员和白宫了，其他不管用。
与身份无关，只跟地域有关。
囤吃的好歹做准备了。不理解的是也不看新闻，就在网上嚷嚷的。这里和国内不一样，媒体报道忙着呢，不只报道正能量，纳税人有权利也有渠道给政府提意见。
这个我也试过了，那人家就叫你看看网站上贴的文字，全都是按C某C的来。我得问问他们防护怎么办，不能光戴个口罩就拉倒。大家知道这个该怎么说？医疗人员和参与人员的防护。还有你看中国医疗人员都会隔离家人——很多是主动的，但这边的医疗人员呢？
如果能给个模板大概outline下说什么就好了，大家可以自行选择说那几条or全部。
这个赞，总结的很有帮助！谢谢mm
好帖！
赞！
没错。遗憾的是这个是医院级别的规定。我和我的医生朋友都说了，他们都很小心。
后面几条都没问题，第一条对于州或者地方政府，在现在的情况下，基本上不可能。
美国社区传播已经开始，防疫工作的落实主要在各州和地方。下面是来自Ohio的一份倡议书，模版信也许可以供其它州参考。（模版信部分来自reddit，free feel to change/add as you see needed.）
[太阳][太阳][太阳][太阳]倡议[太阳][太阳][太阳][太阳]
如果你对美国政府这次的防疫行动不满意，请花一点时间去表达你的不满、发表你的建议。如果我们华裔要更多的参政议政，这就是一个具体的行动。如果大家都发挥监督、督促的作用，就多一点希望看到我们需要的变化。比如，最近有很多俄州选民对即将在州府举行的阿诺武术比赛表达了担忧，州长作出相应变更调整。Warren County居民通过邮件指出当地卫生部门关于Covid-19的宣传信息严重滞后，当地卫生部门两天之内全面更新了网站的防疫宣传手册。下面是一封监督联邦政府和州政府加强防疫措施的信样板，可以根据自己的意见修改后，发给州长、议员。
