Emergency Order 18-20 Amendment
On June 24, 2020, Miami Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez amended Emergency Order 18-20 to require hospitals to provide certain additional information twice daily, as opposed to only once; and also instructed hospitals to inform both COVID-19 patients that do not require hospitalization, and individuals who have been tested for COVID-19 but are awaiting test results, that the County has hotel space available for voluntary quarantine, if desired by such individual. Persons interested in such placements must contact Irina Gonzalez from the Florida Department of Health at (786)316-1273.
