CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM HAS CREATED A NEW SYSTEM FOR THE RE-OPENING OF BUSINESSES THAT HE SAYS IS SIMPLER, SLOWER AND STEADIER THAN THE CURRENT METHODOLOGY. THE NEW, COLOR-CODED PROCESS RELIES ON 2 METRICS…..THE NUMBER OF CASES IN A COUNTY, AND THE POSITIVITY RATE…AND MANDATORY WAIT TIMES. EACH COUNTY WILL MOVE THROUGH THE 4-TIERED SYSTEM AT ITS OWN PACE ALTHOUGH A COUNTY CAN HAVE STRICTER GUIDELINES THAN THE STATE, THEY CANNOT HAVE LOOSER ONES.
AN EXCEPTION TO THAT NEW PROCESS….ALL HAIR SALONS AND BARBERSHOPS STATEWIDE CAN NOW RESUME INDOOR OPERATIONS.
VIRUS STATISTICS WILL NOW BE REPORTED ON A WEEKLY BASIS.
