A state strike team will visit Monterey County seeking to improve compliance of local businesses with the state’s health order. Governor Gavin Newsom created strike teams to fan out across the state primarily targeting trouble spots to help with enforcement of state COVID-19 business guidelines.
Monterey County was added to California’s coronavirus watchlist because of elevated disease transmission. The Monterey County Health Department said it will work with the state teams while they are in Monterey County.
The teams will focus on bars, restaurants and other sectors/facilities that are putting both customers and employees at risk.
