LA Mayor clarifies the 3 mohth "lockdown Extension". Apprently the health
directors quote was misinterpreted and touched off a firestorm. I mean WTF did he think was going to happen. Im all for strategic opening with strict controls etc., to slowly bring things back. It is of course anyones conjecture as to what will happen.
“I want to reassure people because I think there was a lot of panic suddenly when the headlines said we’re all going to stay exactly as we are for three more months when that’s not the case,” Mayor Eric Garcetti told CNN in an interview. “I think, quite simply, she’s saying that we’re not going to fully reopen Los Angeles and probably anywhere in America, without any protections or any health orders in the next three months. I think we know it’s going to be even longer than three months,” Garcetti said.
