Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom held a press conference to mark the June 15 reopening of the state after months of harsh lockdown protocols during the coronavirus pandemic with banners as a backdrop that read: “California Roars Back.”
Newsom told reporters that the state is following the most recent guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), but there are numerous caveats to the “fully reopened” plan.
Here are some of the exceptions, as reported by an NBC affiliate in California.
“As of June 15, California no longer requires physical distancing and allows full capacity for businesses. The state’s long-standing county tier system that determines restrictions has also been lifted, and the indoor mask mandate is no more,” KCRA 3 reported.
But here is some of the fine print:

I’d guesstimate that maybe 15% of the people I saw in stores, in the restaurant, and in one outdoor plant nursery had masks on. Most everybody gave them up instantaneously.
We went from dirty looks and harassment yesterday and the previous 15 months to wide open at the stroke of midnight.
It’s really weird because nothing magical happened last night at midnight.
I kept one in my pocket today just in case one of the stores still required it.
The absolute worst store around here was the Summerwinds Nursery. They trained all their young workers (lots of high schoolers) to harass customers nonstop. It was nuts because you are in the great outdoors and usually nowhere near another customer. “Sir, you MUST pull your mask over your mouth.” “Sir, your mask MUST be over your nose.”
Of all the NE Governors Jolly Ned is probably one of the best in finally relaxing restrictions. He basically said, CCPVirus is over, back to normal.
Unlike NY and CA, no testing/passport mandates for events, etc.
Yes.
Many Linuses and Luciles won't want to part with their blankies.
Mighty white of him😷
BNGO. I am glad I don’t live in California anymore.
I volunteer as a lector (scripture reader) at daily mass. Today I was told that people in the pews who are vaccinated can ditch the masks. BUT, clergy, staff and volunteers must wear their mask as they do their job, even if vaccinated. So, I sit in the pew with my mask off. But I put it on to approach the ambo (lectern). I take it off to read. I put it back on to walk back to my pew. I sit down and take it off.
Weird, huh? And yet it is better than it was…
Any place that I go if they require a mask I just tell them “F#CK YOU” and leave!!
Haven’t had to say it very often, I think the mask KARENS and KENS are starting to get the point.
I’m seeing the same thing here in NH
“Report: California ‘Fully Re-Opens’ with Many Restrictions Still in Place”
A total contradiction brought to you by evil sk uF 2ho contrive to sell the most successful product on the planet:
FEAR!
A corollary headline would be:
Report: California has hottest weather ever, but it’s still cold.
“FULLY reopens ... with restrictions”
I don’t think “fully” means what the writer thinks it means.
The local zoo has dropped the mandate for vaccinated people, but the website states that they will not be asking for proof. A big circular argument then ensued, regarding the fact that if the vaccine is effective, it shouldn’t matter if others are masked or not. It defies logic.
I was out again today. Two Old Navy stores and a McDonald’s. No one asked me to mask up. Most people wore masks but I saw more barefaced people.
Just like NYS.
It only defies logic if you still think CoupFlu was about public health.
