CHULA VISTA, Calif — Weighing in on a week of new COVID-19 protocols, San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria said the city is not requiring the general public to do anything different in terms of mandating vaccination or wearing masks.
"Public Health orders are the jurisdiction of the county and state governments, and neither have indicated to us that a mandate of that nature is coming. In terms of mandates for the general public, I don't foresee those anytime soon,” Gloria said.
