Statement from Monterey County Chief Administrative Officer Charles McKee Regarding Governor Newsom's Announcement on October 17 About The COVID-19 State of Emergency that will End in February of 2023

 

“Today Governor Newson announced that the COVID-19 State of Emergency will end on February

28, 2023. This timeline gives our Office of Emergency Services and Health Department ample time to

demobilize and to look ahead to managing what most would agree is an evolving and on-going public

health challenge.

What this means for the County of Monterey specifically will be determined over the coming weeks.

We will however remain strong proponents for our residents who live here and those who work here of

getting fully vaccinated. Science has proven time and time again that vaccinations are our best defense

against COVID-19.

Our County Health Department, Natividad, and our other public and private sector partners in

community health have been planning for this day as well as a potential surge that may occur after the

holidays in January and February. Coupled with health experts’ expectation that we will experience a

very challenging Flu season, making it more important for our community members to get both

COVID boosters and Flu shots.

There is nothing more important to our Board of Supervisors and our County’s Healthcare

Professionals than the health and wellbeing of our residents. The County of Monterey will continue to

beat the drum of prevention and reasonable measures to protect our people and our economy.”

March 10, 2020, marked the date the County of Monterey Board of Supervisors approved the County’s

Emergency Proclamation. County of Monterey COVID-19 timeline is available at the link below.
