Today marks the end of the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency. The Department of Health and Human Services provides a fact sheet that describes what will change and what will remain the same. One thing I did not expect was that the California Department of Public Health would turn off exposure notifications.
An announcement on the California Department of Public Health website states, “As of May 11, 2023, the COVID-19 digital exposure notification systems across the U.S. are turned off. These systems were timed to shut down on the same date that the nation's COVID-19 State of Emergency ends.”
