First some good news -
The shelter-in-place mandate is showing some good results. The rate of new infection cases has increased about 4.4% for the last two days instead of the usual 10% to 15% per day. There is also a decrease in the number of COVID-19 patients in ICU and also the number of people being hospitalized.
Governor Newsom yesterday announced the returning of 500 ventilators to the national stockpile. He said California has enough ventilators to fight the virus since the new cases will not be as high as projected.
Still in crisis mode news -
