Sonora, CA...From the Tuolumne County Public Health Dept yesterday. "4 new cases are being reported today. 2 individuals are isolating, 1 has recovered, and 1 is hospitalized. The California Department of Public Health reports that they have cleared the CalREDIE backlog and are continuing to work with local health jurisdictions to identify and resolve any remaining data gaps. The state had previously reported that they would halt the county data monitoring process. However, in order to consistently reflect the data and how the disease is impacting communities, as local health departments work with the state to complete the processing of backlogged cases, the state plans to retroactively apply the data and update the county data monitoring list for each day. Due to the state lab reporting system challenges, we have temporarily turned off the case rate tab of our data dashboard. We will update this information and begin reporting that part of the data again as soon as possible.
