SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH OFFICIALS DIAL BACK

HEALTH ORDER REGULATIONS

In an effort to curtail the growing number of cases, hospitalizations and ICU admissions, San Diego County Officials announced the dialing back of the County Health Order.

Beginning Wednesday morning, July 1:

Bars, wineries, and breweries in San Diego County that do not have a license to serve food must close

Patrons visiting a bar, restaurant, or winery that does serve food need to be seated and ordering food

The County may announce further regulations ahead of the July 4 holiday weekend. They reiterated that community outbreaks from parties and get-togethers at homes have contributed to increasing case numbers.

THANK YOU FOR TAKING PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES

We now know from recent studies that a significant number of people with coronavirus lack symptoms (“asymptomatic”) and that even those who eventually develop symptoms (“pre-symptomatic”) can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms. This means that the virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity—speaking, coughing, or sneezing—even if those people are not exhibiting symptoms. In light of this new evidence, the U.S. Center for Disease Control recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where social distancing measures are difficult to maintain, and they are now required statewide in most instances .

In addition to everyday steps to prevent COVID-19 , keeping space between you and others is one of the best tools to avoid being exposed to this virus and slowing its spread locally and across the country and world. Limit close contact with others outside your household in indoor and outdoor spaces. Since people can spread the virus before they know they are sick, it is important to stay away from others when possible, even if you—or they—have no symptoms. Social distancing is especially important for people who are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
