COVID-19 Status Update for 03/30/2021

Vaccination Eligibility Opens Up More on April 1

Starting April 1, all Marin County adults age 50 and older will be eligible for COVID-19 vaccinations, and everyone age 16 and over will be eligible to make an appointment starting April 15. Marin County Public Health officials are relying on increased allocations of vaccine from the state to match the demand as more people become eligible to make vaccination appointments.

“As vaccines supplies slowly increase, it’s the right time to widen the invitation to more of our residents,” said Dr. Matt Willis, Marin’s Public Health Officer. “At the same time, we still have nearly 100,000 residents to vaccinate, and that won’t happen all at once. We’re on track to get to everyone before June, but we’ll need to be patient.”

Cluster of Cases Among Members of Sports Teams

Marin County Public Health is investigating clusters of COVID-19 cases related to team sports. Non-adherence to guidance, including out-of-state travel and participation on multiple teams, threatens our pandemic response.

Participating in, traveling to, and attending sporting events increases the risk of COVID-19 transmission. All sports should adhere to state-recommended precautions for outdoor and indoor youth sports and recreational adult sports.

Update from State: Blueprint for a Safer Economy  

California Department of Public Health (CDPH) provided another update Tuesday on the Blueprint for a Safer Economy, and Marin County remains in the orange Tier 3 for at least another week. Alameda County moved from red Tier 2 to orange Tier 3 on Tuesday along with eight other counties statewide. Sonoma and Contra Costa counties remain in the red tier.

Reminder: For a county to advance to a less-restrictive tier, it must (1) have been in the current tier for a minimum of three weeks; and (2) meet criteria for the next less-restrictive tier for all three measures for the prior two consecutive weeks. 

You can track Marin’s progress by viewing our Blueprint for a Safer Economy dashboard, which is updated each Tuesday afternoon to reflect CDPH’s calculations.
