LANES
LANES REOPEN. >>> THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US POSTED.
LET'S JUMP INTO THE LATEST ON
CALIFORNIA'S ROADMAP FOR
REOPENING.
>> WE HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO
GO AFTER PEOPLE THUMBING THEIR
NOSE.
THIS VIRUS CONTINUES TO SPREAD.
>> THERE YOU HAVE IT.
THE CORONAVIRUS CONTINUES TO
SPREAD AT AN ALARMING RATE IN
CALIFORNIA.
WE HAVE NEW RESTRICTIONS.
BARS, MOVIE THEATERS AND DINING
INSIDE RESTAURANTS WILL BE SHUT
DOWN FOR AT LEAST THREE WEEKS.
SACRAMENTO, SAN JOAQUIN,
SOLANO, AND STANISLAUS
COUNTY'S.
WE ARE LIVE IN MIDTOWN.
CARLOS, WHAT ELSE DO WE NEED TO
KNOW?
>> A ROLLBACK ON THE
RESTRICTIONS IN A REOPENING IN
CALIFORNIA.
THE OUTDOOR BUSINESSES YOU JUST
MENTIONED WILL HAVE TO
COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN OUTDOOR
OPERATIONS.
THAT IS GOOD NEWS FOR SOME
BUSINESSES AND RESTAURANTS.
THEY CAN CHOOSE TO STAY OPEN,
BUT ONLY FOR OUTDOOR DINING.
SOME OF THEM HAVE SET UP
ADDITIONAL OUTDOOR SEATING.
IT IS UP TO THEM TO DECIDE IF
THEY WANT TO REMAIN OPEN.
THERE IS A THREE-WEEK CLOSURE
OF BUSINESSES LIKE RESTAURANTS,
WINERIES, TASTING ROOMS, MOVIE
THEATERS, FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT
CENTERS, ZOOS, MUSEUMS, AND
CARD ROOMS.
BARS WILL HAVE TO CLOSE
COMPLETELY.
OFFICIALS SAY IN THE PAST TWO
WEEKS, CASES IN THE STATE
JUMPED BY 45% AND
HOSPITALIZATIONS HAVE SOARED.
SACRAMENTO COUNTY HEALTH
OFFICIALS SAY MANY VISITORS DID
NOT FOLLOW SOCIAL DISTANCING
RULES OR DID NOT WEAR A MASK.
>> THESE ARE EITHER OUTDOOR
ACTIVITIES WHERE PEOPLE
CONGREGATE LIKE ZOOS AND
MUSEUMS OR PEOPLE DO NOT WEAR
MASKS LIKE RESTAURANTS WERE YOU
NOT WEARING A MASK BECAUSE YOU
ARE EATING AND DRINKING.
>> WE ARE LEARNING THAT
NEIGHBORING YOLO COUNTY IS
VOLUNTARILY CLOSING
RESTAURANTS, BARS, AND
WINERIES.
THEY ARE TRYING TO STAY OUT OF
THE STATE WATCHLIST.
THEY REPORTED 555 CORONAVIRUS
CASES ALONG WITH 24 DEATHS.
>> THOSE FAMILIES ARE REALLY
HURTING THIS MORNING.
YOU MENTIONED THAT CASINOS WERE
NOT CLOSING BECAUSE OF THE NEW
RESTRICTIONS.
THEY HAVE INDOOR OPERATIONS.
WHY ARE THEY EXEMPT?
>> Reporter: THEY ARE ON
SOVEREIGN LAND SO THEY ARE NOT
MANDATED TO FOLLOW STATE RULES
OR STATE ORDERS.
GOVERNOR NEWSOM HAS ASKED THEM
TO CLOSE DOWN OPERATIONS
BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE DO
VISIT WITH MOST OF THEM NOT
WEARING A MASK.
IT IS UP TO THEM TO DECIDE IF
THEY WILL FOLLOW STATE
GUIDELINES.
>> THANK YOU FOR THAT.
>>> THAT BRINGS US TO THE
QUESTION OF THE DAY.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE NEW
RESTRICTIONS?
DO YOU SUPPORT THEM?
YOU NOT SUPPORT THEM?
DO YOU NOT CARE?
JOIN THE CONVERSATION ON OUR
ABC10 FACEBOOK PAGE.
THIS IS A TOPIC THAT I THINK A
LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE AN OPINION
ON.
>> IT EFFECTS ALL OF US.
SOME PEOPLE ARE SIMPLY NOT
WANTING TO USE THAT MASK.
IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU, IT IS
ABOUT PROTECTING OTHER PEOPLE.
AND LYNN SAYS SORRY PEOPLE ARE
NOT TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY.
AND COLLEEN SAYS IF YOU DON'T
FEEL SAFE TO GO OUT, DON'T GO
OUT.
DON'T PUNISH THE BUSINESSES.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION
WITH OTHER PEOPLE JUST TO GET
OTHER PERSPECTIVES.
THAT IS HOW YOU GROW.
>> 70% OF VIEWERS ARE SAYING
THAT YOU SUPPORT THE NEW
RESTRICTIONS AND 27% DO
