Updated
Note to readers
Our COVID-19 tracker will be simplified in the coming months. Please take this survey and let us know what kind of information you'd like to see moving forward.
With the end of California’s state of emergency declaration and many counties’ COVID-19 dashboards retired, the Times has stopped reporting on case rates in communities within the county.
This page will continue to update semi-weekly with data from the California Department of Public Health, but will no longer include testing data due to reporting inconsistencies. Data from CDPH may have up to an 8-day lag in cases. For more information, please visit Sierra County's website.
