TABLE 1. Entry quarantine options for onshore seafood processors under initial Alaska COVID-19 health mandate 10, appendix 1*.

Option	Quarantine	Testing	Transit	Destination community
Pretravel quarantine	Workers observed a 14-day monitored quarantine period outside of Alaska.	RT-PCR† test was done within 48 hours before beginning travel to Alaska.	Safe transit§ was used for all travel to the processing facility in the destination community on a chartered aircraft, ground vehicle, or vessel.	Workers entered the nonquarantine quarters upon arrival and started work alongside workers who had completed quarantine.
Midtravel quarantine	Workers traveled to Alaska to observe a 14-day monitored quarantine period in temporary lodging in a large community with a general acute care or critical access hospital.	RT-PCR test was done within 48 hours before beginning onward travel to the destination community.	All travel from the quarantine location to the processing facility in the destination community was accomplished via safe transit.	Workers entered the nonquarantine quarters upon arrival and started work alongside workers who had completed quarantine.
Posttravel quarantine	Workers traveled to their final destination community in Alaska to observe a 14-day quarantine, housed individually or in a quarantine group (workers living or working in close proximity were assigned to a quarantine group and completed quarantine together).	RT-PCR test was done before entering monitored quarantine lodging. (Another test was done at day 6 and within 48 hours of completion of quarantine as supplies allowed.)	Travel to the destination community was done via commercial transit.	Workers were permitted to work during their 14-day quarantine period under specific circumstances.¶
