The resurgence of the coronavirus in California is not yet showing signs of abating and state and city officials are prepared to re-close even more of the economy if things don’t start to improve.
Ghaly couched that inevitably as partly due to California being the largest and most populous state in the country, but admitted that it may take up to five weeks to see cases of the virus start to decrease again due to the reclosures and the month-old state mandate on wearing masks in public. During a briefing on Monday, Garcetti and county health adviser Barbara Ferrer pointed to the public resuming summer activities and gatherings, showing a lack of seriousness regarding the virus, as well as workplaces not implementing necessary steps to prevent transmission. All of this, they said, has contributed to the rapid increase in spread in the county and the serious consideration of another stay-at-home order.
But very few other businesses have been reported as closed, despite OSHA receiving an increased number of complaints throughout the U.S. For CalOSHA, businesses are expected to self-report workers with cases of the coronavirus.
