Recommendation Regarding Social Distancing Including Remote Meetings of Legislative Bodies

Montery county

Monterey County issued the following announcement on Sept. 

The Monterey County Health Department continues to recommend that physical and social distancing strategies be practiced in Monterey County, which includes remote meetings 

of legislative bodies of local agencies, to the extent possible. Monterey County continues to experience transmission of COVID-19 locally. Physical and social distancing is still an 

effective measure to reduce the spread of COVID-19, especially when combined with use of face coverings, frequent hand washing, staying home when ill, testing, and vaccination 

with U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines. Remote meetings of legislative bodies allow for the virtual participation of agency staff, 

presenters, and community members in safer environments, with less risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The Monterey County Health Officer will 

continue to monitor local metrics and the necessity of this recommendation.
