ATTN: BAY AREA! The 'shelter in place' order is NOT a lockdown. It is rightfully serious, but you can still shop for food, household + necessary supplies, access health care and provide aid to family + friends in need. It begins at 12:01 AM tonight til at least April 7… #COVID19
This #COVID19 'shelter in place' order affects the six counties of Marin, San Francisco, Santa Clara, San Mateo, Contra Costa and Alameda counties and all 6.7 million people who live here, in a concentrated effort to stop the spread and risk of Coronavirus…
Groceries, pharmacies and takeout from restaurants will remain open, as well as banks, gas stations, hardware and home supply stores, auto repair shops, vets and laundry services — where employees and customers need to stay six feet apart, including in lines… #COVID19
Everyone else is required to work from home or stop work, unless essential services, like healthcare workers, police, fire and emergency responders, utility providers and others who keep society functioning (thank you, heroes!)… #COVID19
Reschedule all routine medical appts and elective procedures. If you need to use taxis or public transit for essential travel, you can do so. And yes, all of us here in the Bay Area can still go outside for walks, exercise and sanity — just keep six feet between people… #COVID19
Take a deep breath. Call each other. Check in with neighbors, friends, loved ones, elders and vulnerable populations across the Bay Area. If you need help amid the 'shelter in place' order, I am here! Heed precautions. Flatten the curve. Stay home, save lives. #COVID19
