The Tribe has continued to monitor covid-19 levels in the community and make reasonable responses based on the data. The phased approach is staggered each 2 weeks to allow staff to review how changes impact the spread of Covid-19.
In February the Tribe was able to move from Phase 3B to Phase 3C. With no case rise or outbreak, the Tribe will progress to the next phases in March.
In addition to the phased approach, Mashpee Wampanoag Indian Health Services began offering weekly PCR Covid testing on site. The turnaround time for test results has returned to a safe timeframe. The testing is no longer being conducted through Cape Cod Healthcare.
Employees will continue to receive new guidelines prior to the start of a new phase. Tribal citizens are encouraged to visit our website for current phase details.
