The latest developments around the region related to the novel coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, as of Tuesday afternoon include:
- Alameda County officials are reversing their plan to move the county to greater socialization and business activity amid the novel coronavirus pandemic, health officials said Monday, citing an increase in hospitalizations from the virus and a rising rate of cases.
- The Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors and Public Health Department held a joint meeting Monday with the San Jose City Council to preview the county’s new reopening plan that will be released later this week. The new plan will include across-the-board guidelines for all open businesses, with some more restrictive guidelines for higher risk activities that will be applicable for the long-term. This also means that some businesses will be deemed too high-risk to open up for the time being.
- The city of Fremont and the Fremont Unified School District announced Monday that they will collaborate in an effort to provide nutritious meals to youth and families in need over the summer. According to the city, the FUSD has provided approximately 11,000 to 15,000 Grab & Go meals every week since March 23 in an effort to improve food security for youth under 18 years old in response to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
