COVID Updates

MESSAGE FROM THE HEALTH AND SAFETY TASK FORCE
COVID-19 Vaccine Update:

CDC now recommends the updated COVID-19 boosters for those who are eligible (most over age 12, depending on dates your other shots and boosters were completed).  The updated, or bivalent booster, targets the most recent Omicron sub-variants, BA.4 and BA.5, that are more contagious and more resistant than earlier strains of Omicron. Learn if you are eligible for the updated booster and stay up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines.

For information from the FDA about the vaccine, click here.

To learn if you are up-to-date on your vaccine and eligible for the bivalent booster, click here.

The Health District will be offering the bivalent vaccine by appointment only at Town Toyota Center on Wednesdays beginning 9/28/22 through 10/26/22.  You can schedule an appointment through a link on the Health District website.

Check with local pharmacies.  Walk-ins may be allowed, and Safeway, Walgreens, and Costco offer online scheduling for appointments.

COVID Update
from the Health and Safety Task Force

As of September 29, 2022, at 3 p.m.  LOW

Based on data from CDC, the COVID risk level for our area is HIGH.

For our in-person indoor Sunday service on October 2, 2022, here is what to expect:

  • Masks are optional and will be available if needed.
  • Up to date vaccinations, including boosters, are recommended.
  • Seating allows for physical distancing if preferred.
  • Coffee and conversation indoors after the service are OK.
  • Congregational singing is OK.

**Note:  To streamline the checking of everyone’s status at the front door, the greeters are placing stickers on name tags to show that your vaccinations are up to date, so you may proceed directly into the building. 

If you are not comfortable with the protocols listed above, there is always the option of watching our Sunday service live streamed from home. Please test and stay home if you are experiencing any symptoms of COVID or have been recently exposed.
