The city of Berkeley and six Bay Area counties announced Monday that their shelter-in-place orders will be extended through the end of May.

According to an email from the city of Berkeley, its extended order will ease restrictions for lower-risk activities. The health officers from the seven jurisdictions will also be releasing a set of indicators that they can use to determine how the shelter-in-place order will be lifted, as California Gov. Gavin Newsom did earlier in April.
