2019-nCoV, are likely to exhibit symptoms within 2 to 14 days, which period of time is referred to herein as the “incubation
period”. Thus, the clear and convincing evidence suggests that this disease is easily transmissible from person-to-person.

[local health department name]
3. 2019-novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a new communicable disease that has not been previously identified in the
world. 2019-nCoV meets the definition for “severe acute respiratory syndromes” as set forth in federal Executive Order
13295, as amended by Executive Order 13372 and 13674, and is a federally quarantinable communicable disease. It is
characterized by fever, cough, and shortness of breath and can progress to severe respiratory illness requiring
hospitalization and mechanical ventilation and can lead to death.

stricken with this disease in Kentucky and ____________ people have died.
[applicable number]
[applicable number]
[date of first case report]
7. The most effective method currently known to medical science to contain and curtail the spread of this disease is the
isolation of anyone who has the symptoms identified above at Paragraph 3, and the quarantine of those who have been
exposed to a person infected with this disease for the duration of the incubation period, as identified above at Paragraph 5.
6. There are no known preventive medications for this disease at this time.
4. 2019-nCoV is spread from person-to-person among close contacts. According to the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention, person-to-person spread is thought to occur mainly via respiratory droplets produced when an infected
person coughs or sneezes. These droplets can be inhaled into the lungs and in the mouths or noses of people who are
in close contact. Further, this disease may be spread from contact with contaminated surfaces or objects.
The COURT, having received evidence in this matter, and being otherwise sufficiently advised, now FINDS:
