Outdoor operations may be conducted under a tent, canopy, or other sun shelter, but only as long as the sides are not closed and there is sufficient outdoor air movement. All indoor operations for the businesses on the closure list are prohibited and activities like check-in should be relocated outdoors. The exception is restroom access. Restrooms may be indoors, however, face coverings are required and physical distancing protocols should be enforced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn our experience, most businesses want to do the right thing, so we start by making sure the business understands the restrictions,\u201d said Dr. Kelaita. All industry or sector guidance documents that have been issued to date, including all infectious control measures outlined in those guidance documents, including the use of face coverings, which is mandated statewide apply in outdoor settings, and thus must be adhered to.<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to control the spread of COVID-19 the State has developed data metrics that they monitor for each county. These metrics track local disease transmissions rates, hospitalizations, testing, etc. The State monitors each county\u2019s data and places those counties not meeting the data standards on the County Monitoring List. Counties on the<br \/>\nCounty Monitoring List receive targeted engagement and technical support from the California Department of Public Health and are required to close certain additional businesses for a specified amount of time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently, Calaveras is not currently on the monitoring list,\u201d said Dr. Dean Kelaita, Calaveras County Health Officer. \u201cHowever, one metric that we have to keep a close eye on, given we\u2019ve had a significant increase in cases recently, is what\u2019s called the case rate. It\u2019s the number of new COVID-19 cases in a given population. We want to stay below 100 new cases per 100,000 population in the last 14 days. To keep us below the state\u2019s requirements, people must continue to stay home as much as they can, avoid crowded places, confined spaces, and close contact with people not from your<br \/>\nhousehold,\u201d said Dr. Kelaita.<\/p>\n<p>Information about closures can be found on the State\u2019s website at:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.cdph.ca.gov\/Programs\/CID\/DCDC\/Pages\/COVID-19\/Guidance-on-Closureof-<br \/>\nSectors-in-Response-to-COVID-19.aspx<br \/>\nAdditionally, guidance for each sector should continue to be implemented for all outdoor activities.
