an unprecedented statewide 'stay at home order' directing the state's 40
million residents to hunker down in their homes for the foreseeable
future in the face of the fast-spreading coronavirus pandemic
Governor
Gavin Newsom's directive, effective immediately, marks the largest and
most sweeping government clampdown yet in the worsening public health
crisis brought on by the COVID-19 outbreak, which he predicted could
infect more than half the state within eight weeks
'We
are confident the people of California will abide by it, they will meet
this moment,' Newsom, a Democrat in his first term as governor of the

from the state capital in Sacramento.
