The Regional Stay at Home Order announced by Gov. Gavin Newsom Dec. 3, kicks in immediately in regions with less than 15 percent ICU availability. It prohibits private gatherings of any size, closes sector operations except for critical infrastructure and retail, and requires 100% masking and physical distancing in all others. The order will remain in effect for at least three weeks and, after that period, will be lifted when a region’s projected ICU capacity meets or exceeds 15 percent. This will be assessed on a weekly basis after the initial three-week period. Learn more about this order at the link below. Yolo County is affected.

They’re soft spoken, so turn up the volume! (we’ll get the sideways part corrected later on). #climatecrisis #climateaction #youthled #davisca #yolocounty
