Following a Letter of Guidance from the Del Norte County Public Health Officer published on August 26, 2021, Dr. Aaron Stutz issued a public health order requiring masks in workplaces and public settings.
On November 3, 2021, the Del Norte Public Health Office published an update on the masking orders.
The update states:
On Monday, November 8, Del Norte and Humboldt counties will life the outdoor masking requirements. Additionally, the two counties will lift indoor masking requirement in public spaces not subject to state or federal masking rules when all the following occur:
- Consistently low and stable COVID-19 cases byCenters for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data tracker
- Consistently low and stable hospital impact of respiratory viruses including COVID-19
- Improved community protection with vaccination.
The update also states:
California’s health guidance for the use of face coverings will remain in effect after local masking requirements are lifted, meaning that people who are not fully vaccinated for COVID-19 must continue to wear masks in businesses and indoor public spaces.
The state also requires face coverings for everyone, regardless of vaccination status, in health-care facilities, public transit and adult and senior care facilities. California’s masking guidelines in K-12 schools would also not be affected by changes to local health orders.

A guide, on finding a man who has lost his way, brings him back to the right path—he does not mock and jeer at him and then take himself off. You also must show the unlearned man the truth, and you will see that he will follow. But so long as you do not show it to him, you should not mock, but rather feel your own incapacity.

Do not rely on following the degree of understanding that you have discovered, but simply think, “This is not enough”.
