San Francisco's mayor has announced an unprecedented three week lockdown that will begin on Tuesday at midnight and which bans anyone from leaving their home for anything other than doctor's visits or trips to the supermarket.
In addition to the lockdown in city parameters, six counties in the Bay Area are being told to 'shelter in place'.
The lockdown is the strictest action to be taken in America. Anyone who breaks it faces legal repercussions.
It will last until April 7. Mayor London Breed called it a 'defining moment' on Monday morning.
'This is going to be a defining moment for our city.

Just in: Pentagon will physically separate Defense Secretary Mark Esper & US military’s top officer Gen. Mark Milley amid the coronavirus outbreaks, Chief DoD spox Jonathan Hoffman says. Staffs will communicate via teleconference. DoD will screen those who go into Esper’s suite
First cop that would come up to a guy to take him into custody? The guy starts coughing and hacking.
The cops will scram. Either that or shoot him, and that is most likely what will happen.
government workers are disaster service workers and have to work.

BREAKING: Churchill Downs will make an announcement regarding the 146th running of the #Kentucky Derby during a press teleconference at 9 am ET Tuesday.
what about going to work? are doctors and nurses to stay home? who will be stocking the grocery stores and checking people out if all the workers are at home? No police or fire either? open season for thrives and looters....
Meanwhile, pooping in public in the streets continues unabated.
A defining moment, alright. The moment when the Socialists and Fascists managed to pull the lever to collapse the world economy that will make the 1930s look like a mild recession!
I just got back from the grocery store to get a few things. The toilet paper, hand sanitizer, eggs, and meat shelves looked like pictures we saw from the old Soviet Union.
doctors and nurses have to go to work.
Cant wait until Blasio tries to do a lockdown in NYC. Oh boy...that will be interesting
WW2 had lots of travel bans, curfews, and quarantines.
So it isnt unprecedented....just not for something like this.
they said everyone.... why should medical personnel have to go to work?
What if “home” is a tent, and you feel “the urge?”
No, in a civil society, they are requested to go to work. And they are paid compensation in return.
Don't know Mom MD, but if she decided to retire tomorrow, that's her choice, her call.
There isn't a draft or compulsory federal service.
Interesting. So all cops and firefighters will have to stay home for 3 weeks unless they are shopping for groceries or going to the Doctor. All air traffic controllers. Nobody unloading freight at the port of Oakland can show for work. That is going to make it tough to restock the toilet paper aisles. With all cops at home, who is going to enforce the quarentines?
SF is as idiotic as they come. Much thanks to the Lord that I escaped form that communists hell hole 15 years ago. It was hell on earth, I will tell you. Pretty, great weather, but hell on earth.
Wonder if they will check your kitchen cabinets to make sure you need to go grocery shopping.
So if someone is out driving around as say they are going to the store or the dr’s office, how can they prove otherwise?
In China you lost your license if you refused to work.
Dont think we would ever get that far
OMG these liberals are OUT OF CONTROL this is like marshal law!!!
