October 6, 2020 – The California Blueprint Data Chart (Excel) has been updated to show county tier status, date of tier assignment, number of consecutive weeks meeting the next tier’s criteria, case rates, adjusted case rate for tier assignment, testing positivity, and test rates for the weeks ending 9/20/20 and 9/26/20.

August 28, 2020 – California’s New Tiered System: https://covid19.ca.gov/safer-economy/

The “state monitoring list” is no more, and they have switched to a new tiered system that takes into account daily case rate per 100,000 and positivity rate. Counties have a mandatory 21-day period in any given tier and can only move onto a new tier when they’ve qualified for the new tier for a minimum of two weeks.
