San Diego Covid-19 Updates 2021
SAN DIEGO COVID UPDATES
Finally, there is a light at the end of the tunnel! As we begin to emerge from this pandemic the good news follows; more than 25% of San Diego is fully vaccinated, and over 44% have received at least one dose, leading to California announcing the removal of the color coded tier system by June 15.
With the end of the tier system, restrictions on business will be removed with business as usual. Mandatory mask wearing will still be required. The full reopening will be contingent on two conditions: sufficient vaccine supply and low hospitalization rates. Currently, San Diego is in the Orange Tier. No matter what tier San Diego is in on June 15, the removal of the tier system will still occur. California has not announced if different guidelines will then replace the current tier system.
This past week the California Department of Public Health updated it's guidance documents for indoor live seated events and performances as well as private events, including receptions, conferences and meetings. These are based on the tier system
