'We're going to shut down all state parking lots, and that will go into effect immediately,' Newsom said.
Gov. Gavin Newsom said Monday that he is closing parking lots at California’s state parks in order to deter people from congregating and unintentionally spreading the novel coronavirus.
The governor made the announcement four days after he ordered all residents to remain in their homes, making California the first state in the nation to place such restrictions on the movement of its residents in response to the coronavirus. Newsom took drastic action last week in order to slow the spread of the virus before hospitals are overwhelmed with more seriously sick patients than they can adequately treat.
