SF DPH Will Now Come to Your House and Vaccinate You for Free
The SF Department of Public Health is now making house calls, and offering to come by your place and vaccinate you for free, provided you have a group of 5-12 people on hand for the shots.
Like any U.S. city, San Francisco is juggling carrots and sticks to try to get to a fully vaccinated population. In the light-a-fire-beneath-your-rear-end department, we’ve seen Mayor Breed require city employees to get vaccinated, and of course bars making proof of vaccination mandatory for indoor service. On the incentive front, we’ve seen free Giants tickets plus food and Skystar Ferris wheel tickets dangled to persuade the unvaccinated. Breed announced another persuasion move today, saying the DPH will come to your house and vaccinate you for free.

SF Just Recorded As Many New COVID Cases In a Day As In Mid-January
New cases of COVID-19 are popping up in San Francisco and elsewhere in the Bay Area in what is clearly a fourth wave of the pandemic, and everyone is clearly anxious and exhausted.
The latest surge in new cases arrived swiftly over the last two weeks, with the numbers in San Francisco still fairly low in the first days of July. The city was averaging 12.6 new cases per day in the month of June, and that rose to an average of 39 per day in the week after the July Fourth holiday. Now, SF s seven-day average, as of Sunday (with a couple of days of delay in the health department s reporting of numbers), was 147 new cases per day. 218 new infections were tallied in SF on Sunday alone, with 196 the previous day, which compares to days in mid-January when we were in the midst of the winter surge. July 20 also saw 215 new cases.
