California plans sweeping stay-at-home order as Covid cases surge

Governor Gavin Newsom says the order will be the most restrictive since the beginning of the pandemic as intensive care units are strained.

California has unveiled plans to issue regional stay-at-home orders for areas in the state where intensive care units are expected to fall below a capacity of 15%, with the vast majority of the state expected to meet that criteria within the next few days.

Gavin Newsom, California’s governor, announced the new restrictions on Thursday as cases in the state reached the highest reported since the pandemic began.

The city’s restrictions mirror county-wide guidelines and limit nearly all social gatherings of people from more than a single household. People may “lawfully” leave homes to engage in exempted activities like healthcare operations, supermarkets and restaurants, the directive said. The guidelines also exempt religious services and protests protected by the constitution.

As a citizen of SouthernCalifornia, I can say this is total BS. We are just going into seasonal flu season and our hospitals are in line with that. F€CK Newscum!

Saturday night will be a Huge Trump rally/curfew breaking rally in Huntington Beach. F€CK their lockdown.
