The Sacramento Region is the second region in the state in which the orders were lifted. The Northern California region was the first.
Riverside County is in the Southern California region, where the stay-at-home order remains in place as the ICU availability is at 0%. A region needs to have 15% or above ICU availability in order for the order to be lifted.
