Following a spirited debate, the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors unanimously authorized administrative enforcement of public health order violations on Thursday.
Effective immediately, under an "urgency ordinance," county personnel may fine individuals and businesses for violations like holding a large gathering, not wearing a mask or not following physical distance guidelines in a business. ---
Recent issues with the California Department of Public Health's electronic reporting system have led in San Francisco to temporarily suspend posting some COVID-19 data online, city officials said Thursday.
Counties across the state announced underreported COVID-19 case numbers early this week due to a glitch in the California Reportable Disease Information Exchange (CalREDIE) disease reporting system.
In response, CDPH has directed all laboratories to report positive COVID test results directly to county health departments until the issue is fixed.
The San Francisco Unified School District and the United Educators of San Francisco announced Friday that they reached a tentative agreement for distance learning for the upcoming school year. The memorandum of understanding between the two parties was necessitated by the COVID-19 coronavirus that is preventing much of the state from starting fall semester classes in person.
The agreement requires students to have no less than two hours of "daily live interaction" with a "certified district employee," who will also supervise students during the school day. Teachers will be available to speak with students via computer during their normal seven hours as outlined in their contracts.
