Emergency measuresĮmergency measures are closely linked to the number of people requiring hospital care for Covid-19. The requirement for patrons came into effect on 20 August and for staff will take effect on 13 October. In San Francisco, proof of vaccination is required for patrons at indoor bars, restaurants, clubs, theatres and entertainment venues, as well as indoor gyms and other fitness establishments. As an example, the Los Angeles Unified School District mandate orders all employees to be vaccinated against Covid-19 by 15 October. The mandate of strict coronavirus safety measures for employees and students in various organisations and businesses is helping in the progress to contain the virus and prevent another lockdown in the state. The number of people being vaccinated in California is rising. This is mirrored by weekly figures falling for the nation as a whole, from153,000 to 118,000 cases a day for the same period. Taking data from specific areas over the same period, the San Francisco Bay Area reported a decline in weekly cases of 36 per cent Southern California, 28 per cent the Greater Sacramento area, 27 per cent the San Joaquin Valley, 18 per cent and rural Northern California, 15 per cent.

Figures from the state Department of Public Health note a fall from an average of 13,400 cases a day for the week ending 27 August to around 9,800 cases a day for the week ending 10 September. Whilst there have been claims that data-processing delays may have skewed figures, California has reported a 27 per cent decline in weekly cases over the period from 27 August to 10 September 2021. It is due to the masking, testing and vaccinations that the California Department of Public Health announced in August that lockdowns would not be necessary, stating that the state was keen to keep businesses open and have children safely back at school. The fall has been credited to wearing masks in indoor public spaces and high vaccination rates, according to state epidemiologist Dr Erica Pan. The level of coronavirus transmission in the state has fallen from “high” (red) to “substantial,” (orange) which is the second-highest tier defined by the CDC. Rates of transmission fallĪs it stands at the time of writing, the chance of another lockdown in California is low.
#CALIFORNIA NEW LOCKDOWN SOFTWARE#
Online businesses have benefitted from the closure of traditional retail and entertainment sites with Betfred Casino just one of those making the best use of rapid software developments in the last few months to launch live dealer games that make players feel as though they are at a games table in a brick-and-mortar casino. The last 18 months in California have been tough for most and even though some businesses have thrived many others will not be able to survive another lockdown. What has been confirmed by new data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is that California’s coronavirus transmission rates have continually dropped throughout September 2021 and there is hope this decline in cases will continue after the Delta variant surge in the summer. The chances of another lockdown in California depend on many variables. Posted: 12:26 am, Septemby Access Publishing
