Calif. Gov. Gavin Newsom orders residents to stay at home (so they can’t spot him at French Laundry again?)

Newsom says the new system will be designed around which areas are close to ICU capacity:

#BREAKING: Gov. Newsom has announced a new, regional stay-at-home order as an "emergency brake" to curb the rampant spread of COVID-19 in California. Details: https://t.co/TCTbW0Nuo1

California Governor Gavin Newsom will apply regional stay-home orders in the state based on hospital capacity https://t.co/QFTc5yClIA

That’s one way to keep people from spotting out and about being a shutdown hypocrite again.

Our ICUs are climbing quickly toward their capacity. Our death rate is rising.

To slow the surge of #COVID19 and save lives, CA is introducing a Regional Stay-At-Home Order.

Regions where ICU capacity⁰fall below 15% will be placed into this Stay-at-Home Order ⁰for 3 weeks.

Lockdowns failed. Solution: lock down harder https://t.co/RVasZptoCQ

SCIENCE!

Has anybody asked him how this could happen in the state that has had some of the strictest measures designed to ensure this doesn't happen? https://t.co/7MnJULhQ64

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

That must mean him and his cronies are having dinner somewhere and they don’t want to experience any traffic on the way.

California officials already had all the sand bulldozed into skate parks earlier this year, so it’s already been pounded.

For anyone who wants to complain about the new order in-person, Governor Newsom will be at the French Laundry restaurant tonight from…
