“Today is a huge milestone on our county’s path out of this pandemic,” said Dr. Sara Cody, Health Officer and Director of Public Health for the County of Santa Clara. “Because so many members of our community are now fully vaccinated, COVID-19 case rates are at some of the lowest levels we’ve seen since the start of the pandemic. We are now confident that vaccination not only prevents people from getting sick, it also prevents people from spreading COVID-19.”
