Data graph: Recently, the new Coronary Pneumonia epidemic has forced many meat processing plants in the United States to shut down, which has led to a continuous decline in meat production, triggering concerns about meat shortages. Some supermarkets in the San Francisco Bay Area have begun to adopt purchase restrictions to deal with the potential shortage of meat products. China News Service reporter Liu Guanguan
In the new round of “Home Order” regulations, the basic regulations such as “social distance” that have been implemented before are still valid. At the same time, health officials have made several changes to the order to ease restrictions on outdoor activities in recent weeks. Health officials say the Bay Area is laying the foundation for a gradual return to normalcy, while preventing a surge in new cases.
Under the new regulations, as long as the builders can follow the health and safety guidelines, all building construction can be resumed. Construction projects of different sizes will have different regulations to ensure the safety of construction personnel. Real estate transactions can also be restarted, but site visits are still restricted. At the same time, the moving business was also restored. Outdoor businesses including nurseries and gardening services, flea markets and car wash will also be allowed to resume business. Workers engaged in "basic business" can send their children to a nursery. In addition, as long as people observe the "social distance", some outdoor leisure facilities including golf courses and skate parks can be reopened. Any entertainment facilities involving shared equipment (such as playgrounds) or physical contact are still prohibited from the public.
On the 4th, in San Mateo County, 13 trails in 23 parks in the district were reopened, and citizens entering the trail must keep a distance of at least 6 feet from others. The reporter saw on that day that cars were parked near the entrance of Sawyer ’s trail. Citizens run in twos and threes, running or walking on the trails and enjoying the spring sunshine. On a golf course a few miles away, there are already many swingers.
The “Home Order” in the San Francisco Bay Area has undergone several extensions and adjustments. The six counties in the Bay Area began implementing the "Home Order" on March 17 local time, requiring residents to stay at home as much as possible, and to maintain a "social distance" with others when going out for necessary activities. On March 31, the "Home Order" originally scheduled to end on April 7 was extended to May 3, and more stringent regulations were added. Health officials in six counties in the San Francisco Bay Area and Berkeley announced on April 27 local time that the "Home Order" will be extended to the end of May. The new round of orders will "maintain" the existing restrictions "to a large extent" while also "limitedly relaxing certain restrictions on a few low-risk activities." (Finish)
