Covid-19 has continued to cause havoc on the United States. The United States has recorded 200,000 cases a day as of December 6th. California has now taken measures to try and control the virus. They have issued a lockdown to try to stop the spread of covid-19.This lockdown will cause strict closures on businesses and ban gatherings outside of individuals' households. The lockdown will last 3 weeks which will still be in place during the Christmas season. Fear for small businesses is the biggest concern for individuals living in that state however individuals understand that it is more important to protect the lives of Americans. This attempt will try to stop holiday gatherings especially after the spike in cases since Thanksgiving. California has hit 2.3 million cases and it is only expected to rise without proper restrictions. ICU centers are struggling with bed capacities and this last push for lockdown is a wall to hopefully turn that around. California could be the first of many other states to issue a serious lockdown.
Do you think other states will begin lockdowns? Do you think it will help?
