Trinity County Blueprint for a Safer Economy

Press release from Trinity County Health and Human Services:

The Trinity County Blueprint for a Safer Economy replaces the County Data Monitoring (CDM) List and Attestation for determining sector opening and modifications. The county Blueprint is now posted on the Trinity County website at www.trinitycounty.org.

Trinity County is currently in the yellow tier. Sector guidance and tier assignment can be found at the California COVID-19 website at www.covid19.ca.gov. Trinity County would not move back into the more restrictive orange tier unless our absolute case rate number hits seven (7) under the Alternate Case Assessment Measure.

Alternate Case Assessment Measure:

Small counties are subject to all existing Blueprint rules (test positivity thresholds, minimum duration of 3 weeks in a tier before moving to a less restrictive tier, inability to skip over a tier while moving from more restrictive to less restrictive tier designations, etc.) with the exception of the case rate thresholds as delineated below:

From Tier	To Tier	Trinity Co weekly case number threshold
Yellow	Orange	7
Orange	Red	14
Red	Purple	35

The Alternate Case Assessment Measure provides a small county protection against sudden tier changes as a result of small changes in cases over a two-week period. If the county exceeds the absolute weekly case number thresholds (as defined in the table above) for two consecutive weeks, it will be required to move to the more restrictive tier.
