I predict that this week Newsom will issue a NEW Shelter In Place Order by the end of this week. All non essential businesses shutdown and no in person interaction with anyone outside your household unless it's an essential service. This is how I think it will be stricter than the one in Spring:


1) Strict mask mandates for anytime you leave your house, including getting your mail or watering your front lawn. No mask exemptions so if you can't wear a mask for any reason, you stay in your house and have another household member get essential needs unless it's a life or death emergency.



2) This time they will enforce the rule about zero social interaction with anyone outside your household: that includes stopping to talk to a neighbor while you're walking your dog (even if you both have masks and stay 6 feet apart).


Anyone violating those two rules can be legally charged with a misdemeanor and fined up to $1,000 and/or sentenced to 30 days in jail. HOWEVER, the rules will ONLY be enforced in upper class neighborhoods where people are mostly law abiding and can afford to pay the fines. There will be a hotline to rat on people not following the rules. If the person in the neighborhood is White or Asian and upper class, the enforcement officers will actually show up and fine the violators. Lower class neighborhoods will probably be ignored because there is too much risk involved when it comes to enforcing the SIP law and they are very unlikely to pay the fine. I don't think anyone will go to jail but there will be plenty of citations and fines issued. Typical cases will be retired couples having their adult kids over for a meal, a person who lives alone having their significant other spend the night, a family with one kid having another family's kid over for a playdate, two single women walking their dogs together, and a lone jogger stopping to have a conversation with a neighbor who is watering the front lawn. They will also take pictures of anyone who isn't wearing a mask on their mouth and nose and fine them if they are the right demographic to pay the fine to avoid trouble.



There is ONLY one situation that will allow people to interact socially in person with people outside their household and in that one singular exemption to the SIP mandate, there will be no limits on numbers, social distancing, or mask requirements. You know what that activity is.

So this is just your personal prediction - not based on any information or quotes from leadership?

My personal prediction is, we're not going backwards from this. We're going to plunge forwards, no matter what.

And I say that, on the very worst day for reported deaths since COVID began in the US. (note, data is collected in spurts, and Tuesday tends to be the biggest data dump day, and the second biggest tends to be Wednesdays. That said, there hasn't been a higher "dump day" for COVID deaths in the US than today).
