California's latest coronavirus surge is all anyone here can talk about — unless they're Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Facing a recall threat, Newsom is trying to steer the conversation toward anything but Covid: shoplifting, homelessness, rent relief, broadband, wildfires and the drought. But that's become difficult after Los Angeles County shocked Californians last week with an indoor mask mandate and other large counties urged residents to mask up, regardless of vaccination status.
“Get vaccinated. We could end this thing quickly if everyone just went out and got vaccinated,” Newsom said at a press conference Wednesday in Los Angeles focused on reducing retail theft.
The closest the governor has come to even hinting at the possibility of reconsidering mask requirements was Wednesday, when he said any subsequent decisions would be made “on the basis of epidemiology, on the basis of science, on the basis of the status of our health care delivery system.”
About half of California’s residents now live in areas where indoor masking is recommended or required for those who are vaccinated. The spike has revived talks of vaccine “passports” and other verification methods — possibly at places like bars and restaurants — as well as employer vaccination requirements.
While Newsom regularly touts California’s high vaccination rates, the state is still trailing many blue states and is just above the national average. Public health experts agree that the governor is right to focus on vaccinations, and that the state can’t mask its way out of the pandemic.

Newsom: “Time to lock up the state. Everyone not voting early in the recall please stay home on recall voting day. We’ll get those votes counted for you!”
Half the population is vaccinated and the problem is getting worse. So if the other half get vaccinated, the problem should be twice as bad as it is now.
It’s all made up surge. Fake news. This stupid plandemic has been 19 months being perpetuated by the media, democrats and some rinos from the gitgo. What I know and heard hospitals had to build makeshift container freezers to accomodate remains killed by the COVID injection they maybe claiming killed by delta variant oh yeah.
building up a reasoning if he loses and gets recalled.
Happens over and over. Once these scumbags are up for election, they starting avoiding the commie policies they support when in office and talk like they are for the people.
And the sheep fall for it over and over again because so many are simply not paying attention.
Only the “Vax’d votes will be counted.
