Date of Order: April 13, 2020
Date of Order: April 13, 2020Frequently Asked Questions » Safety Code § 120275, et seq.)
- This Order shall become effective at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, April 17, 2020 and will continue to be in effect until it is rescinded, superseded, or amended in writing by the Health Officer or the State Health Officer.
- California is in a State of Emergency because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The spread of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a substantial danger to the health of the public within the County of Sonoma (“County”). COVID-19 can easily spread between persons who are in close contact with one another. This Order is based on scientific evidence and best practices as currently known from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the State of California, and the Sonoma County Health Officer. This Order is intended to protect vulnerable members of the public from avoidable risk of serious illness or death resulting from exposure to COVID-19.
- The age, condition, and health of a significant portion of the population of the County places it at risk for serious health complications, including death, from COVID-19. Persons have been shown to be infectious up to 48 hours before onset of symptoms, and as many as 50% of infections seem to occur from asymptomatic persons. All persons who contract COVID-19, regardless of their level of symptoms (none, mild, or severe), may place other vulnerable members of the public at significant risk. Currently, there is no vaccine available to protect against COVID-19 and no specific treatment.
- COVID-19 is spread through respiratory droplets that are produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes or talks. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of others who are nearby, or can be inhaled into their lungs. COVID19 has been shown to attach to surfaces for days and remain viable in the air for up to three hours after the infected person has left. When properly worn by the user, these facial coverings have the potential to slow the spread of the virus by limiting the spread of these droplets. Even a small reduction in community transmission could make a major difference to the demand on healthcare system.
- This Order also is issued in light of the existence of 147 cases of COVID-19 in the County as well as two fatalities, as of April 13, 2020.
- The Health Officer has determined that this Order, and its prior Orders, were and are necessary because cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed throughout Sonoma County. COVID-19 is highly contagious and has a propensity to spread in various ways including, but not limited to, by attaching to surfaces or remaining in the air, resulting in physical damage and/or physical loss.
- This Order is issued in accordance with, and incorporates by reference, the Health Officer Order (C19-05) Extending the Shelter in Place Order issued on March 31, 2020; the California Department of Public Health Face Covering Guidance issued on April 1, 2020; the Sonoma County Department of Health: Health Officer Guidance on Face Coverings for General Public in All Age Groups issued on April 5, 2020, the Health Officer Guidance on Surgical Masking for Healthcare Workers and First Responders issued on April 6, 2020.
- All persons shall wear facial coverings before they enter any indoor facility besides their residence, any enclosed open space, or while outdoors when the person is unable to maintain a six-foot distance from another person at all times.
- This Order does not apply when the person is driving alone or with members of their households, unless the windows in the vehicle are lowered to interact with first responders, food service workers, or other persons who are not members of their households. Persons should refrain from purchasing medical-grade masks, such as surgical masks and N95 respirators; those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders coming into contact with infected persons.
- Facial coverings means any fabric or cloth that covers the mouth and nose. The facial covering can be made using household items (including scarves, bandanas, t-shirts, sweatshirts, towels, turtlenecks, or other fabric), can be sewn by hand, or factory-made. Further guidance on facial coverings could be found here:

The CDC is now recommending that we all wear face masks when we are in many public spaces.
"We now know from recent studies that a significant portion of individuals with coronavirus lack symptoms (“asymptomatic”) and that even those who eventually develop symptoms (“pre-symptomatic”)
can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms. This means that the virus can spread
between people interacting in close proximity—for example, speaking, coughing, or sneezing—even if
those people are not exhibiting symptoms. In light of this new evidence, CDC recommends wearing
cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to
maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based
transmission. . .
"The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are
critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first
responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance."

Who is at Higher Risk for Serious Illness from COVID-19?
Who is at Higher Risk for Serious Illness from COVID-19?
Who is at Higher Risk for Serious Illness from COVID-19?
The majority of people who are exposed to corona virus will be asymptomatic or have a mild flue like illness
Early information out of China, where COVID-19 first started, shows that some people are at higher risk of getting very sick from this illness. This includes:
- Older adults
- Individuals with compromised immune systems
- Individuals who have serious chronic medical conditions like:
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- Lung disease
If you are at higher risk for serious illness from COVID-19 because of your age or health condition, it is important for you to take actions to reduce your risk of getting sick with the disease, including:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing, or having been in a public place.
- Avoiding touching eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands.
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick, and stay away from large gatherings and crowds.
- Stay home as much as possible. Consider ways of getting food brought to your house through family, social, or commercial networks.
It is also important that you listen to public health officials who may recommend community actions to reduce potential exposure to COVID-19, especially if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.

What should I do if I am unable to work after being exposed to COVID-19?
Individuals who are unable to work due to having or being exposed to COVID-19 (certified by a medical professional) can file a Disability Insurance (DI) claim.
Disability Insurance provides short-term benefit payments to eligible workers who have full or partial loss of wages due to a non-work-related illness, injury, or pregnancy. Benefit amounts are approximately 60-70 percent of wages (depending on income) and range from $50 - $1,300 a week.
Californians who are unable to work because they are caring for an ill or quarantined family member with COVID-19 (certified by a medical professional) can file a Paid Family Leave (PFL) claim.
Paid Family Leave provides up to six weeks of benefit payments to eligibile workers who have a full or partial loss of wages because they need time off work to care for a seriously ill family member or to bond with a new child. Benefit amounts are approximately 60-70 percent of wages (depending on income) and range from $50-$1,300 a week.

"Code Blue"
Cold Weather “Code Blue” Advisory 10/27/2019 11:40 PM PDT
Santa Rosa, CA – October 27, 2019 – Effective Sunday, October 27, 2019, Sonoma County is issuing a “code blue” cold weather advisory in response to the National Weather Service’s prediction for near freezing overnight lows for several days in the coming week. This advisory requests that all homeless service agencies expand beds and open warming facilities in an effort to proactively mitigate cold-weather impacts on Sonoma County’s homeless population.
A Code Blue advisory is issued during periods of time when temperatures drop below 38 degrees, or when the wind chill reduces the effective temperature below 38 degrees, or when rainfall makes it difficult or impossible for unsheltered individuals to remain dry. As overnight temperatures are predicted to be at or near freezing throughout the week, the advisory will remain in effect through Saturday November 2nd, when the need for a continuing advisory will be assessed based on the latest weather conditions.
The latest information can be obtained by calling 2-1-1 , or online at www.211sonoma.org.
Homeless and If Evacuated From Your Home
For individuals who may remain unsheltered due to the fire evacuations, we encourage you to visit one of the available evacuation shelters tonight rather than remain in your vehicle or a tent. Lengthy exposure to cold temperatures can cause hypothermia. Hypothermia left untreated can be deadly. The list of available shelters: https://socoemergency.org/home/emergency/evacuation-centers/
Make Sure Babies And Older Adults Stay Warm
Infants less than one year old should never sleep in a cold room because they lose body heat more easily than adults. Follow these tips to keep your baby safe and warm during the extreme cold:
- Remove any pillows or other soft bedding. These can increase the risk of smothering and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
- Dress babies in warmer clothing such as footed pajamas, one-piece wearable blankets, or sleep sacks.
- Try to maintain a warm temperature inside your home. If you’re not able to keep your home warm, make temporary arrangements to stay elsewhere.
- In an emergency, you can keep your baby warm using your own body heat. If you must sleep, take precautions to prevent rolling on or smothering your baby.
Older adults often make less body heat because of a slower metabolism and less physical activity.
- Check on elderly friends and neighbors often to make sure their homes are heated properly.
- If you are over 65 years of age, check the temperature in your home often during extremely cold weather.
Dress Warmly And Stay Dry
- Inner Layer: Wear fabrics that will hold more body heat and don’t absorb moisture. Wool, silk, or polypropylene will hold more body heat than cotton.
- Insulation Layer: An insulation layer will help you retain heat by trapping air close to your body. Natural fibers, like wool, goose down, or a fleece work best.
- Outer Layer: The outermost layer helps protect you from wind, rain, and snow. It should be tightly woven, and preferably water and wind resistant, to reduce loss of body heat.
Know the signs of hypothermia.
Hypothermia (abnormally low body temperature) is a dangerous condition that can happen when a person is exposed to extremely cold temperatures.
In adults, warning signs of hypothermia include shivering, exhaustion or feeling very tired, confusion, fumbling hands, memory loss, slurred speech, and drowsiness. In babies, signs include bright red, cold skin, and very low energy. If you notice any of these signs, take the person’s temperature.
If it is below 95° F, the situation is an emergency—get medical attention immediately.
