"This is a very difficult time for our communities, and there are many people who are experiencing the profound sorrow of loved ones who have passed away from Covid-19. We are very deeply sorry for your loss," said Barbara Ferrer, PhD, MPH, MEd, Director of Public Health. "We join the many voices coming together in anger, frustration and protest around the murder of George Floyd. Let's work together to prevent our peaceful protests from resulting in more transmission of COVID-19."


A new Health Officer Order has been issued that allows for in-person dining at restaurants and hair salons to reopen once the establishments are able to implement the required distancing and infection control devices. Brewpubs, breweries, bars, pubs, craft distilleries and wineries that do not offer sit-down, dine-in meals are still required to stay closed.
