COVID Variants: Updated Information
Alameda County Information and August 3, 2021 Order:
Strong recommendations for everyone –
Everyone is strongly encouraged to wear a mask in outdoor crowded settings and in non-public indoor settings, like a private residence, when you are with people you do not live with.
While fully vaccinated people are less likely to require hospitalization and less likely to die from variants, they may be asymptomatic or get infections.
While COVID-19 cases are increasing and the Delta variant is spreading, everyone is asked to wear masks to help slow the spread of the virus.
Eligible, unvaccinated persons are encouraged to get vaccinated to help prevent a future, even more virulent mutant.
