Californians ordered to wear face masks in public after ‘too many people with faces uncovered’: Gov. Newsom
KTLA ^ | 06/18/2020 | by: Nouran Salahieh

Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered all Californians Thursday to wear face coverings while in public or in high-risk settings after the state recorded a single-day high in coronavirus cases.

Face coverings are now mandated for residents while at work, on public transportation, in taxis and ride-sharing cars, and inside or in lines to enter all public spaces— including hospitals and pharmacies.

“Simply put, we are seeing too many people with faces uncovered – putting at risk the real progress we have made in fighting the disease,” Newsom said in a written statement. “California’s strategy to restart the economy and get people back to work will only be successful if people act safely and follow health recommendations. That means wearing a face covering, washing your hands and practicing physical distancing.”

The new order comes a week after Orange County lifted its face mask requirement, with local officials saying they wanted to be “more consistent with the state.” Last month, Riverside County also went from mandating face coverings to “strongly recommending” them.

Previously, the state had only recommended wearing the face coverings, but counties — including densely-populated Los Angeles County — have required the masks for those visiting or working in public spaces and interacting with others.

Meanwhile...

Steve Scalise sent letters to the Democrat governors of NY, NJ, CA, PA, and MI demanding they explain why they ignored protocols, forced COVID-19 patients into nursing homes.

GFY yourself New-scum. Guess impeachment, Russia, Riots, COVID part 1, this, that didn’t work so let’s bring COVID part 2 which by the way, is the biggest hoax perpetrated on the country and economy. Last I thought, hot weather killed the virus....aka the flu?

Again, GFY you POS. I’ve had it with these people.

Many of the surgical ones from China are crappy. The straps break after a couple of hours. Of course that’s how they were designed: one use, then into the trash.

Masks, I can deal with for now. It’s but a temporary annoyance. I’m just glad Gov. Gav. has allowed many businesses to re-open. These people need to keep the money coming in.

Under Sharia, only the women have to wear face coverings.

California is off to a flying start.
