OAKLAND, Calif. - The latest developments around the region related to the novel
coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, as of Tuesday afternoon include:

Santa Clara County launched two pop-up COVID-19 coronavirus
testing sites Tuesday, allowing residents in Gilroy and San Jose to be tested free of charge. The testing sites, located at Valley Health Center on 7475 Camino Arroyo in Gilroy and the Santa Clara County Service Center auditorium at 1555 Berger Drive in San Jose, will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through
Friday. Each location has the capacity to test up to 500 people per day.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra on Monday warned
residents to be on guard against scammers pretending to be coronavirus contact tracers in order to trick people into providing personal information. The scammers find victims via phone calls, email and text messages.

A free coronavirus testing site has opened in Berkeley for any
resident who wants to get tested or any business owner who wants to have their employees tested, city officials said Monday. Employees or residents can get tested even if they don't have symptoms. The site is operated by the state of California and tests are available by appointment only.

Church Street, West Linda Mesa Avenue and parking space on Hartz Avenue and Rose Street are being set aside to allow for more outdoor seating for restaurants in Danville amid the coronavirus pandemic, city officials said. The closures will be in effect for three months from that date with the possibility of being extended.
