Counties that reach the orange tier can allow bars to reopen outdoors, with modifications, without needing to serve food.
Local-level health officials can opt to maintain stricter standards than those outlined in the tier framework. “We saw a lot of movement last week; we’ve seen a lot of movement this week; you’re going to see even more movement next week,” Gov. Gavin Newsom said Tuesday. When that happened last Friday, the state began allowing counties with an adjusted case rate of up to 10 new cases per day per 100,000 people to exit the purple tier. Previously, counties needed to have case rates at or below seven per 100,000 people to move into the red tier.
