SANTA ANA (CNS)—Citing improving conditions in hospitals, state health officials Jan. 25 lifted all regional stay-at-home orders, including in the 11-county Southern California region, but counties will still be subject to tight regulations of the restrictive “purple” tier of economic reopening guidelines.

The regional stay-at-home order was imposed in Southern California last December when intensive care unit (ICU) capacity dropped below 15 percent. The regional capacity subsequently dropped to an adjusted 0 percent.
