Source: San Francisco Chronicle
San Francisco Mayor London Breed is telling city residents to stay in their homes as a shelter-in-place order is issued.
"Effective at midnight, San Francisco will require people to stay home except for essential needs," Breed tweeted at noon Monday. "Necessary government functions & essential stores will remain open."
Individuals are asked to avoid all gatherings except for medical purposes, to get food, or for work reasons.
"These steps are based on the advice of public health experts to slow the spread of #COVID19," Breed said. "The most important thing you can do is remain home as much as possible. There is no need to rush out for food or supplies, as these stores will remain open."
