AUGUST

As COVID cases rise and there are more requirements to show proof of vaccine – for travel, in-person school and indoor dining – we are finding that many people have misplaced the vaccine cards they were given as they were vaccinated. This can be a stressful issue, but the state has provided a quick remedy that can help replace the information. You can click Digital COVID-19 Vaccine Record (ca.gov) and within a few minutes you can get the information needed to show proof of vaccine.

If you need some assistance, you can call the Public Health customer service line at 951-358-5000 and they can walk you through the process.

JULY 28

Statement from Riverside County Public Health concerning latest face mask recommendations:

“Following the updated face mask guidance issued by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and the California Department of Public Health, and in light of the recent increase in local COVID-19 cases, Riverside County Public Health recommends residents follow the new state and federal guidance for face coverings.

The current state and federal masking guidance recommend that vaccinated individuals wear face masks in public indoor settings. The state still requires unvaccinated individuals to wear masks indoors.

As the impact on the Delta variant increases transmissibility, Riverside County health officials continue to stress that getting vaccinated is the best protection against the virus and its variants.”

Schools and childcare settings continue to have statewide restrictions pending updated guidance from the California Department of Public Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For more information, visit https://covid19.ca.gov/safely-reopening/#reopening-california.

Riverside County residents are asked to take precautions when celebrating Thanksgiving with smaller, shorter and safer get-togethers. With the recent rise in coronavirus cases and COVID-19 hospitalizations, state health officials are urging residents to limit possible exposure to the virus by reducing the number of people they have contact with during Thanksgiving.

Smaller – If you are going to meet during the holiday, keep the groups small and separate, even within a household. Avoid large gatherings.

Shorter – Keep get-togethers to an hour or two.

Safer – Don’t forget about basic safety: wear a mask, practice social distancing and wash your hands. Eat and socialize outside. Consider seating one family group on the patio, while another sits in a separate area. Keep plenty of hand sanitizer on hand. Avoid sharing serving utensils.
