Coronavirus In LA: Your No-Panic Guid To Daily Life & The New (A Changing) Rules

April 28, 2020

Life in L.A. — and really, most of the country at this point — has been fundamentally changed. We don’t know yet what the new normal is going to be, and we don’t know when. Some local officials are eyeing mid-May to start rolling back restrictions, but a lot would have to happen first.

Life in L.A. — and really, most of the country at this point — has been fundamentally changed. We don’t know yet what the new normal is going to be, and we don’t know when. Some local officials are eyeing mid-May to start rolling back restrictions, but a lot would have to happen first.
Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan for relaxing the stay-at-home order hinges on six key metrics with phases on phases. L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti has a plan with five key marks to hit.
On April 27, Garcetti told us this: “My sense is probably in the next two to six weeks we’ll see some baby steps forward.”
Garcetti, who was talking to our newsroom’s public affairs show AirTalk, which airs on 89.3 KPCC, added ”it’s not really about a date, or how few cases you have — it’s about the infrastructure you have to handle opening up.”
So here’s where we are:
Californians are still under orders to stay home unless working essential jobs or seeking essential servicesBusinesses are closed, a staggering number of people are out of work, and if you’re not sure what day it is, we can relate.
The U.S. still has the highest number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the world, with local numbers contining to rise.And we are still publishing and updating this guide. For weeks now we’ve been doing what we can to help combat fear, anxiety and frustration by:

  • Bringing you the most recent and accurate information
  • Explaining what’s happened/happening in clear language (but let us know if we’re falling short)
  • Continuing to update this comprehensive guide as new information becomes available (it’s now basically impossible to count how many updates we have made.)  For more information CLICK
