What early and aggressive actions did CA do exactly? All I heard was a bunch of doom and gloom from their nutjob governor
San Francisco did shut down a full week or so before NYC.
Counties surrounding the SF Bay area, where CA’s first outbreaks started, were the first part of the country to issue “shelter in place” orders. CA was the first state to issue a shelter in place. But I don’t give Nutjob Newsom credit. It started way before he got involved.
Back when CV19 was just a “Asian Problem”, California businesses were implementing policies of social distancing, canceling travel, moving meetings to teleconferencing and advising employees how to stay healthy. CA was canceling large events and encouraging people to work from home while NY was still encouraging people to ride the subway, go to restaurants, party it up in Times Square, and go to the Chinese Lunar New Year Parade.
Newsom sees this as a political opportunity he can ride to the White House in 2024. Or maybe he wants Cali to secede, as he refereed to CA as a “Nation State” repeatedly a few nights ago.
