“While we continue to reopen more businesses and activities, the risk of contracting the virus is still high, so it is important for business owners to follow all the guidance recommendations to keep the transmission in the businesses and in our community low,” said Dr. Julie Vaishampayan, Stanislaus County Public Health Officer. “We need to be even more attentive to social distancing, washing our  hands, and wearing face coverings while out in public to protect ourselves and those around us.” 

Governor Gavin Newsom recently approved the reopening of movie theaters, however, that sector was not included in Stanislaus County's list of reopenings.
