San Francisco currently sits in the “purple” tier with a 7-day average test positivity rate of 1.94% (California is 6.4%) and 13.8 new COVID cases per day per 100k (California is 30.2).
These rates are slight drops from numbers reported on 11/28, but likely don’t take into account any potential surge from Thanksgiving weekend.
