Newsom says California is starting to shift its focus from the surge of COVID-19 to its suppression abc7.la/2xkHJs7

Until we build #Herd_Immunity, California will do the following...
- Ensure our ability to care for sick in hospitals
- Protect most vulnerable
- Build capacity to protect general public
- Reduce social, emotional & economic disruption

Per CDPH Director Dr. Sonia Angell @ABC7

When will we see the #StayHome orders lifted in California?

Governor @GavinNewsom says there is no on/off light switch but it will be gradual. Until we have herd immunity and a vaccine... there is no way to completely reopen "normal" life.

NO timeline today on when economy in California can reopen.

"Let's not make the mistake of pulling the plug too early... I don't want to make a political decision and put people's lives at risk..." - Gov. @GavinNewsom

Governor @GavinNewsom won't respond to a reporter's question about his thoughts on President @realDonaldTrump saying he has total authority when it comes to re-opening the country. Says he just wants to focus on getting stuff done. @ABC7

@GavinNewsom @realDonaldTrump @ABC7 MORE: CA announces plans for their reopening of their economy in coming months and will include,

-Restaurants will open with fewer tables
-Disposable menus
-Your temperature will likely be checked

Governor says mass gatherings are out of the question until herd immunity or a vaccine is developed.

Basically... prepare for summer holidays to be different this year. @ABC7
