(21,723 posts)16. Sacramento county here
64 and bunkered in. It's really nothing different for me as I am a hermit and semi-hoarder anyway, so I think I'll be ok. One of my sons, who is also in Sac County, was sick this past weekend. He asked for a test and was refused one. I talked to him on the phone yesterday and he sounds crackly, but is feeling better. He works as a hospital cook, and was told to stay home. He said that 3/4 of his coworkers were also sick. He also worked pt at the golden one center, so that job is gone.
Stay safe, neighbor!
