On monday, californias new reopening blueprints went into effect, heres where each bay area county stands in the new colorcoded terror system all bay area counties except to as you see there are indicating widespread infection. This means many non essential indoor businesses remain closed, San Francisco in napa county show substantial widespread infection.

Reopening in california is now based in a for tier colorcoded system purple red orange and yellow with yellow meaning cases are minimal and purple meeting cases are widespread. As you see by this map most counties in the state are in the purple now moving up the ladder is based on 2 factors gauged over 3 week period. One of the my mind says new framework is its its facetime or teus. Metrics primarily what is the number of new cases per day you know diagnosed cases and then the percent positivity. And that really is a way of making sure that were testing it off and that the testing were doing it seemed to see how many cases were seeing. Marin county Health Officer doctor matt willis believes the new framework is a step in the right direction.

You have to me for 3 weeks and anyone setting so you know you not be able to move too quickly. Counties that do more testing like San Francisco can have the rating adjusted for the better and each color or tear indicates what can open and while most counties remain in the purple under this system things that were not allowed to open before like indoor hair salons and malls can reopen the so thats an improvement but solano countys Health Officer says the downside in his mind is it fully reopen under the for tier plan as we go to read this before we would then also listed everything had gone back to the way it was before, but now thats not true that they remain heavily restricted all the way down to yellow and so we have to achieve far far lower rates of the disease to get back to where we were before we got on the monitoring list and would have been the case since the head last a lot pro or con and the new Guidelines HealthOfficials Say whats most important heading into this Labor Day Weekend. Is to learn a lesson from what happened over memorial day. Promising trends could be quickly reversed right we could have very low levels of transmission which can turn on a dime.
