COVID-19 State of Emergency Orders Expired February 28, 2023 

On February 28, 2023 Governor Newsom ended California’s COVID-19 State of Emergency, and the Board of Supervisors ended Alameda County COVID-19 Emergency. Similarly, City of Fremont COVID-19 emergency legislation, proclamations, and orders not previously terminated, and which are tied to the state and/or county emergency orders, have expired as of February 28, 2023.  

Regarding eviction moratoriums, the City’s Residential Eviction Moratorium was previously terminated by the City Council, and the Small-Scale Commercial Eviction Moratorium will expire on March 30, 2023 (30 days after the end of Covid-19 local emergency). The Board of Supervisors has voted to extend the Alameda County Eviction Moratorium through April 29, 2023 (Saturday), at which time it will expire unless further extended. The City of Fremont Human Services Department can provide information and referrals to mediation and eviction assistance and other services.  Please contact the Fremont Family Resource Center at 510-574-2028.

The Federal Emergency is set to expire on May 11, 2023.

Stay Healthy

The end of the local health emergency declaration does not mean the end of COVID-19, which will remain present in our community. Residents should use the same tools that have proven over time to be effective in keeping themselves and others as healthy as possible. The Alameda County Health Care Services Agency continues to encourage everyone to:

• Stay home if ill or COVID-19 positive;
• Keep up to date on vaccinations, including getting the updated COVID-19 booster;
• Wear a high-quality, well-fitted mask for added protection against infection;
• Gather small and outdoors to reduce risk or if gathering indoors, improve ventilation by opening doors and windows or running air filtration systems;
• Get tested if exposed or sick;
• Plan how and where to access treatment and, if positive, contact a health care provider or utilize a state-supported resource right away: don’t wait until symptoms get worse.
