Our Response To COVID-19
What We’ve Done
As always, the City will follow both the State and County Health Orders, and where there is a conflict between the two, the stricter rules must be followed. Check Sunnyvale.ca.gov/virus for possible activity changes.
Masks – When to Wear Them?
Masks are REQUIRED in some specific cases: • If you are not vaccinated • Youth, ages 2 to 17
Youth participants, parent/guardians and staff are
REQUIRED to wear a mask, regardless of vaccinations status as stated in the CDPH Mask Guidance related to
K-12 schools, childcare and other youth settings.
What is covered under “youth settings?”
“Youth settings” include K-12 schools, day camp, childcare, preschool, parent and child classes, youth sports and other youth activities or classes, including theater and music performances and band. • When entering Columbia Neighborhood
Center (CNC)
CNC is considered a healthcare setting because the
MayView Clinic (healthcare setting) shares the same building entrance and lobby area. Santa Clara County RECCOMMENDS to wear masks INDOORS regardless of vaccination status.
What Is Considered a Close Contact?
Close contact is someone who was 0 to 6 feet of an infected person for at least 15 minutes or more than within a 24 hour period regardless of whether both parties were wearing masks. The ≥15 minutes could be continuous contact with the positive case or someone who had repeated shortduration interactions with the infected person within the 24 hour period.
Health Screening Questions

Close Contacts and COVID-19 Positive Test Notifications:
