Nov. 10: Mayor London Breed announced San Francisco will have to roll back reopening plans and eliminate indoor dining, reduce gym capacity and reduce movie theater capacity starting on Friday due to an uptick in COVID-19 cases.
(SF is still Yellow in CA's measurements, but its numbers would have earned it an Orange this week. If they are still Orange next week, SF will move from Yellow to Orange. I believe the Mayor has seen the numbers and know it is coming.)
SCC, currently in Orange, had Red-level numbers this past week. Nothing has been announced at their website yet. If the numbers are Red again next week, SCC will move into the Red Tier. For SCC, these were the things relaxed when SCC moved from Red (Tier Two) to Orange (Tier Three), so these will GO AWAY:
San Mateo county is Orange, and had Orange numbers this past week (so not at risk of moving to Red for at least 2 weeks).
Because of testing levels, cases in SF only counted as 0.5 cases in the adjusted case-rate computation; In SMC, 0.544; In SCC, 0.639.
