The San Francisco Bay Area is currently home to Californiaโ€™s worst coronavirus case rate. The region is likely being hit hard with new infections now because of the โ€œlatest supercharged transmissible variant,โ€ whose contagiousness is approaching that of measles, one of the most readily transmitted diseases for humans, Chin-Hong said in a briefing he gave to campus staff Friday.

 

Another factor behind the soaring case rates could be that a relatively large number of people in the Bay Area have not been exposed to the coronavirus until this point of the pandemic because of the regionโ€™s intensive efforts to keep the virus at bayโ€ฆ

 

Berkeley schools announced Friday a new order to reinstate an indoor mask mandate for students and staff for the remainder of the school year, effective Monday, including indoor graduations.

 

UC San Francisco is beginning to require universal masking at all large events with 100 or more attendees.
