San Francisco Halts Reopenings, Cites Rising COVID-19 Cases
San Francisco will temporarily pause most planned reopening efforts that were previously scheduled to resume on Tuesday, November 3rd. San Francisco Mayor London N. Breed and Director of Health Dr. Grant Colfax announced the change on Friday, citing an increase in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations.
Mayor Breed says, “Given what we’re seeing in our numbers here as well as across the country and the world, we want to make sure we continue our cautious and deliberate approach, which is why we’ve decided to pause before moving forward with more reopening. With this pause, our public health experts can evaluate our cases and hospitalizations so that we can work to stay ahead of this virus and keep our community safe.”
The majority of activities and businesses that were scheduled to reopen or expand their capacity on November 3rd will be paused. These include opening indoor pools, bowling alleys, and locker rooms at fitness centers, and expanding capacity at indoor dining establishments, places of worship, and museums, among other businesses and activities that are allowed only if a county at least reaches the orange tier under the State’s blueprint. Businesses and activities that are currently allowed may continue operating at this time.
