Preparing for the novel coronavirus

Virus under microscope

Currently, there has not been a confirmed case of COVID-19 in Placer County. However, further transmission is expected to occur in the United States, and our community, in the future. Placer County Public Health is actively working with our partners in healthcare, education and beyond to prepare. We encourage members of our community to think ahead and plan for potential disruption to daily life as well. Learn more and find updates at www.placer.ca.gov/coronavirus.
