COVID-19 cases are rising throughout CA. We're now seeing a rise in cases in SF too. Our numbers are still low but rising rapidly.
As a result, we're temporarily delaying the re-openings that were scheduled for Monday.
At our current rate, the number could double rapidly. If that continues & we don't intervene, we'll be at such a high number that our only option would be to shut down.
Everyone needs to wear face coverings, maintain social distance, and practice good hygiene.
Nobody should wait to get tested.
Let’s protect each other so that we can safely reopen San Francisco.
I know people are anxious to reopen--I am too. But we can't jeopardize the progress we've made.
We'll continue to let you know as soon as decisions are made.
