Ventura County modified its coronavirus stay-at-home order to permit some businesses to reopen and some gatherings to take place.
Ventura County on Saturday modified its stay-at-home order to permit some businesses to reopen and some gatherings to take place for the first time since the restrictions were issued to fight the spread of the coronavirus.
The county had reported 416 cases of the coronavirus and 13 related deaths as of Saturday. Twenty-one people were hospitalized, including eight in intensive care units. “We are positioned to focus on the road to reopening because our residents and businesses have sacrificed so much to comply with the public health orders and slow the spread of the virus in our community,” Mike Powers, the county’s chief executive, said in a statement. “Our current situation is further strengthened by the work of our local hospitals to expand their capacity.
Robert Levin, the county’s public health officer, said that officials will scrutinize data trends over the next few weeks and make adjustments if they believe the spread of the virus is accelerating.On Saturday, he indicated that things had changed for the better but said that it’s still important to proceed carefully.
“The data is looking good, thanks to the diligence of our community members in following these orders, but we must be cautious in how we move forward,” Levin said in a statement.
