So how the implementation is going to work, I have no idea and scared tbh (I fall under very high risk due to autoimmune conditions) but thats the only way forward.
In CA, we have a plan that includes testing, protective gear and distancing. And watch the numbers closely.
Gov. Newsom:
"when it comes to re-opening, SCIENCE - not politics - must be California's guide."
These are the six indicators that Newsom says will guide California's decision-making:
"The ability to monitor and protect our communities through testing, contact tracing, isolating, and supporting those who are positive or exposed;
"The ability to prevent infection in people who are at risk for more severe COVID-19;
"The ability of the hospital and health systems to handle surges;
"The ability to develop therapeutics to meet the demand;
"The ability for businesses, schools, and child care facilities to support physical distancing; and
"The ability to determine when to reinstitute certain measures, such as the stay-at-home orders, if necessary."
Remember, CA has more than 10% of the nation's population and is the 5th largest economy in the world.
I cannot fathom opening up without adequate testing. Think about schools; the children.
