I’ve concluded that Newsom was very likely lying when he said they have are monitoring 8,000 people. How is that even possible? How did they learn about them? How do they monitor them? I doubt most of them are hospitalized.

I decided to look up what Newsom actually said:
Newsom said some of the cases being monitored were individuals who had returned from to the U.S. on repatriation flights from other parts of the world.

"Over 800 people have come in on those flights but that is a small part of the overall picture," Newsom said.

"Thousands and thousands of other people have come in on more traditional flights through the state of California," Newsom continued. "8,400 plus are currently being monitored, with 49 local jurisdictions doing those protocols and monitoring as it relates to more traditional commercial flights which came in from points of concern and potential points of contact, particularly in Asia."

His statement that they were "monitoring" 8,400 people apparently was interpreted by the stock market as that they knew of that many who had the symptoms, and the freaking market crashed. But he said nothing like that. Unbelievable.

They are not monitoring 8,000. It is important to watch the language being used. They are voluntarily self-quarantine. Saying they are being monitored implies a different scale of medical care and causes confusion.
