Update from the State of California
  • COVID-19 State of Emergency Extended: Last week Governor Gavin Newsom extended for the third time the state of emergency related to the threat COVID-19 poses. The executive order, which opens up access to goods and emergency services for the state and health authorities, stretches the declaration through March 31, 2022. The first state of emergency was declared on March 2, 2020.
Update from Santa Clara County
  • All Residents Encouraged to Get a Booster Shot: To prevent a COVID-19 surge as the holiday season approaches, County Public Health Department officials recommend all residents 18 and older receive a COVID-19 booster shot. The booster is appropriate for almost everyone six months following the last Pfizer or Moderna vaccination, or two months following the Johnson & Johnson vaccination. The State of California recently informed local health jurisdictions and providers to allow patients to self-determine their risk of exposure and to not turn a patient away who is requesting a booster. Call the County's Call Center at 2-1-1 with questions. You can book at appointment or find a walk-in location County's vaccinations web page.
