The Orange County Sheriff’s Department has been proactive in implementing containment strategies, and has activated our communicable disease protocol to safeguard the inmates and staff at the Orange County Jail. The Sheriff’s Department is requiring enhanced medical screening for all inmates, law enforcement, and staff entering the Orange County Jail, including temperature screening prior to entering any OC Jail facility. In addition, all incoming inmates are quarantined for up 14 days to limit exposure to the current inmate population.
