Orange County Rally Attendees Call for End to Local Health Emergency
The supervisors voted to let the local health emergency stand.
About 200 people gathered outside the board’s Santa Ana, California, chambers during the May 25 meeting. Two weeks prior, a rally of more than 700 people gathered there to oppose a digital vaccine verification system, which the board voted to halt.
“We’re here because we stand for freedom, something that you guys are infringing upon, including our civil liberties,” one public commenter said.
The board’s move to continue the local health emergency will last for 30 days before reaching another renewal period.
