Marking just over two years since Bay Area health officials announced unprecedented shelter-in-place orders, Santa Clara County’s Public Health Officer Dr. Sara Cody said Thursday that despite a steady downward trend of cases, residents should expect and prepare for a COVID-19 “swell” or “surge” at some point in the future.

“Even though many messages out there are ‘We are moving on,’ the virus hasn’t moved on,” said Dr. Cody at a press conference. “And the virus continues to mutate and change and reemerge in different corners of the world. And so we actually need to keep doing many of the things that we’re doing. Looking out for each other and keeping each other safe.”
