SACRAMENTO – (INT) - The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is ending COVID-19 policies that required weekly COVID-19 testing for unvaccinated individuals in high-risk workplaces and schools.

The change effective September 17th brings state COVID-19 guidance in alignment with the most current federal recommendations.

Remaining in effect are vaccination and booster requirements for employees in healthcare, correctional health, and adult residential settings.
