Until further notice
Here is the most relevant part, there is a lot more there
It is also important that older adults and those at elevated risk of serious illness from COVID-19 take immediate steps to reduce their risk. This includes staying at home as much as possible and practicing social distancing, said Governor Newsom.
Based on the Governors announcement yesterday, older adults, individuals with compromised immune systems, and individuals who have serious chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and lung disease should take the following steps:
Remain at home until order is rescinded, or until further guidance is issued.
Cancel any non-essential travel, appointments, etc.
For routine medical care, contact your health care provider to discuss rescheduling.
Continue with outdoor activities.
As long as you practice social distancing, we encourage you to continue your outdoor activities such as walks, runs and yardwork, to the extent your health allows it.
