Shelter-in-place will last through May

from Civic · host Mel Baker, Laura Wenus

The shelter-in-place order keeping Bay Area residents in their homes except for essential activities will be extended through the month of May, San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced Monday. Dr. Grant Colfax, the city’s health director, said health officials are also looking for a sustained decline in the number of people hospitalized with COVID-19 before the shelter-in-place order can be lifted. Breed also announced that two major thoroughfares through city parks, John F. Kennedy Drive in Golden Gate Park and John F. Shelley Drive in McLaren Park, would close to car traffic to enable pedestrians and cyclists to maintain social distancing while they exercise. The mayor also described the idea of housing thousands of homeless people in hotel rooms — the ordinance allocates 7,000 rooms specifically for homeless people — as unrealistic. Hear this and other updates from today's press briefing.
