Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update
With news media flooding the channels with constant information regarding the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), we are monitoring the situation and will continue to update our site as new developments occur.
California is currently under a “shelter in place” order which directs residents to stay inside their homes and away from others as much as possible until further notice. The reason for this order is to hopefully slow the rapid spread of coronavirus. For more information on COVID-19 in California visit the California state website for up-to-date number and for details on what “shelter-in-place” means. For those in San Mateo County, you can find local information at the County of San Mateo website.
Information was posted by the White House on March 16, 2020 entitled “15 Days to Slow the Spread“.
