Alameda County Stuck On 'Watch List': State Glitch

ALAMEDA COUNTY, CA — Alameda County is stuck on the state's coronavirus "Watch List" for the time being, meaning that there can be no further loosening of restrictions. The problem is a state computer glitch.

Nearby Contra Costa County health officials added a disclaimer to that county's coronavirus web page that reads, "The State electronic system is experiencing delays in processing test results. Consequently, case, testing and positivity rate data is temporarily incomplete. As a result, the State has postponed any movement of counties “on” or “off” the watch list until this is resolved."

As Alameda is currently on the list, it is stuck until the problem is fixed.

Meanwhile, the county reported 3 new deaths on Tuesday, bringing the total to 192. Another 63 confirmed cases were logged, bringing the total since the start of the pandemic to 11,909.
