NEWS on COVID-19 in California: What could California’s new coronavirus restrictions look like? Here are some clues
“Gov. Gavin Newsom’s warning that California will soon face ‘more dramatic’ coronavirus restrictions in an effort to blunt an alarming surge of COVID-19 infections threatening to overwhelm hospitals is reviving memories of last spring’s frantic lockdowns.
But even as we enter what epidemiologists warn could be some of the darkest and deadliest days of the pandemic, there are few indications at this point that California is going to return to such a widespread, near-total halt of daily life.
Instead, book stores and barbers that shuttered in March could stay open this time around, albeit with much smaller capacities. Closures of parks and beaches seem unlikely to return, though travel limits may make those destinations less accessible. Outdoor restaurant dining stands some chance of making it through the winter. Those are some of the potential changes highlighted by epidemiologists, who cited new restrictions enacted by Santa Clara and Los Angeles counties as examples of what could be next for the state as a whole.
‘We see the writing on the wall and we have to take these steps now,’ said Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, a professor and chair of the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California-San Francisco. Still, she said, ‘Nobody wants a full shut down.’
Newsom has not yet announced the new health orders that his office expects to roll out in the coming days. He said Monday that the restrictions would ‘fall in line’ with the spring stay-at-home order, though with unspecified modifications. It isn’t clear how the order might affect schools.”
