As usual, here's a"bulletin" saying the county I live in is destined to stay perma-fucked by Newsom. I keep telling people to sign a recall petition. ONLY way this will stop.
STATE SAYS COUNTY'S CORONAVIRUS EPIDEMIC HAS WORSENED
• Latest report card puts us further from reopening
This morning the California Department of Public Health assigned Monterey County a coronavirus score of 8.5, which means we have moved in the wrong direction when its comes to meeting the 7.0 threshold required to get out of the
Purple Tier and into the Red Tier in the state's economic shutdown scheme. Last week, our score was 8.3.
This week's score is based on Monterey County's coronavirus cases for the week ending Oct. 17, when the county's 7-day average infection rate per 100,000 residents, as reported by the Monterey County health department, had increased to 12.2. Since then, the number of new cases has been decreasing. However, given the mysterious nature of the state's scoring system, it's hard to know what anything portends for the eventual reopening of our economy.
