an unprecedented act never seen before
in American history we direct a
statewide order for people to stay at
home it started when the governor of
California asked 40 million people to
remain at home as the corona virus
pandemic spreads now other states are
taking the same steps including New York
and Pennsylvania the order leave your
house only for essentials like groceries
and urgent medical attention
president Trump applauding the actions
today I applaud them they're taking very
strong bold steps you need to make away
from the valley to the west side wide
open Los Angeles is adapting to a new
normal usually it's a bumper to bumper
traffic during the morning commute but
not today you can basically get anywhere
in Los Angeles in about 15 minutes from
what I see people are taking this day at
home order very seriously Hollywood
Boulevard is normally packed with
tourists today it's a ghost town well
this is absolutely shocking nobody is on
this sidewalk here in Hollywood this is
an mechag Leone Oh in Times Square here
in New York the governor ordered drastic
measures starting Sunday night all
non-essential businesses are being
ordered to send their workers home and
people have been told to stay off public
transportation it's all in an effort to
keep the state's 20 million people
indoors as much as possible if you do go
out for example to get some food you
must stay six feet apart
the governor says all of this is not
just helpful advice these restrictions
will be enforced among the essential
services allowed to stay open
grocery stores pharmacies banks gas
stations hospitals police and fire taxi
drivers dry cleaners laundromats
sanitation workers and bakeries
