Mask Mandate Lifted
California's statewide indoor
masking policy has changed
starting on February 16. Fully
vaccinated individuals are no
longer required to wear a mask in
indoor public settings, but are still
recommended to continue indoor
masking when the risk may be
high. Unvaccinated individuals
above the age of two will still need
to continue wearing masks in
indoor public settings. All patrons
may be required to wear masks by
hand washing.jpg
Washing Hands
Handwashing is one of the most
effective methods to keep yourself
and your family healthy.
According to the CDC, there are five
steps to properly washing your
hands.
1. Wet hands with clean, running
water (warm or cold), turn off
the tap, and apply soap
2. Lather your hands by rubbing
them together with soap. Lather
the backs of your hands,
between your fingers, and
businesses, venue operators, and
hosts.
For more information, please see
the updated guidance from
California Department of Public
Health: https://bit.ly/328LkoQ
beneath your nails should all be
slathered with soap.
3. Scrub your hands for at least
20 seconds. (Don't know when
20 seconds ends then Hum
Twice the "Happy Birthday"
song from start to finish)
4. Rinse your hands well under
running water.
5. Dry your hands with a clean
towel or let them air dry.
For more information regarding hand
washing visit the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention website:
