FOR THE ENTIRE INYO COUNTY COVID-19 REPORT PLEASE GO TO https://www.inyocounty.us/covid-19
As of July 11, Inyo County transitioned to the HIGH transmission level of the CDC’s COVID-19 Community Index. According to available data,the dominant Omicron subvariants in California and the United States are BA.4 and BA.5 and they are both highly transmissible (even in outdoor settings); the R naught is approximately 18.6, which means that for each (1) Omicron-infected person approximately eighteen (18) other people will be infected.
Individuals should take precautions to protect themselves, family members, and friends. Inyo County Public Health recommends that individuals:
- Wear a mask indoors and in public space—Surgical masks, N95s, or KN95s with good fit are highly recommended
- People with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19 should wear a mask.
- Masks are recommended in indoor public transportation settings and may be required in other places by state authorities.
- Get the COVID-19 vaccine and booster doses when eligible
- If you have not been vaccinated or boosted against COVID-19 and you are eligible, please consider making an appointment today at one of our participating providers.
- Most of the COVID-19 infections among vaccinated individuals in Inyo County occurred in persons whose most recent dose of a COVID-19 vaccine was more than 5 months prior to infection and indicate a waning vaccine efficacy after 5 months in boosted and unboosted individuals.
- Get tested if you are experiencing symptoms and follow Isolation & Quarantine recommendations.

Sadly the evidence is clear….maskers-non maskers, vaccinated-non vaccinated, it’s all the actions and non-actions speaking truths. Who cares, who don’t, those who accept facts those who don’t accept facts even when it slaps them in… Read more »
Interesting, a claimed reproduction number of 18.6! That has to be near record breaking. Curious claim considering there is no way to test for these variants.

Kay, why oh why even try to debate someone that is not stable?
I do appreciate your links though. So many on this site like to say ” I saw one study”, or pass other information as facts without any supporting data.
Kay Kramer OMG !!!!…Mono Counties OWN conspiracy theory website !! I think the best one I’ve heard in the past couple years is,the Government,actually inserting “chips” into our arms..( not a vaccine shot at all )….and keeping track of how many guns we have,might want to buy, and will be… Read more »
Sadly, the Science has been politicized and corrupted, and tossing sandbox accusations of conspiracy theories only confirms suspicions that this is entirely ideological
Oh, but wait William, there’s more !!
