County officials Monday encouraged local businesses and employers to implement stricter COVID-19 measures amid a spike in new virus cases.
COVID cases and hospitalizations are escalating and that has renewed demand for COVID-19 testing. Primary healthcare providers, community health clinics, pharmacies and the County all offer testing. Now the County is reopening some of its former large testing sites, like at San Diego State University, to ease crowds and make access as convenient as possible.
Due to increased demand, the County is once again opening more sites where San Diegans can get tested for COVID-19.
More than 2 million San Diegans are now fully vaccinated against COVID-19, placing the County closer to achieving its vaccination goal.
The County’s Southeastern Live Well Center project is moving forward and residents in the area will once again have an opportunity to give their input on the look and feel of the facility which will serve as a hub for health and social services in the region.
County Vector Control crews will conduct their regular mosquito-fighting larvicide applications this week on dozens of local waterways — but by hand, rather than from the air, because the helicopter used is down for unscheduled maintenance.
San Diegans have largely turned to traditional vaccination clinics to get immunized against COVID-19.
