Hey all,
Directly quoting the top part of this morning's City of Berkeley press-release 'SEVEN BAY AREA HEALTH OFFICERS WILL EXTEND SHELTER-IN-PLACE ORDERS'
https://www.cityofberkeley.info/City_Manager/Press_Releases/2020/2020-04-27_Seven_Bay_Area_Health_Officers_will_extend_shelter-in-place_orders.aspx :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Berkeley, California (Monday, April 27, 2020) - The Public Health Officers of the Counties of Alameda,
Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara as well as the City of Berkeley will
later this week issue revised shelter-in-place orders that largely keep the current restrictions in place and
extend them through May.
The new order will include limited easing of specific restrictions for a small number of lower-risk
activities. The shelter-in-place orders in effect across the seven separate jurisdictions are set to expire
on May 3, 2020.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unsure if that new order which has "limited easing of specific restrictions for a small number of lower-risk activities" would include or exclude cafes and restaurants such as Cafe Blue Door?
If the "easing of specific restrictions" can apply for Cafe Blue Door, then maybe BerkeleyLUG *could* have a live meetup sometime in May(?)
OTOH, wouldn't myself promote that BerkeleyLUG *should* be able to have live meetups in May -- one reason that comes to mind is that the social/physical distancing most probably *
required* at most live venues for the [short-term] future makes it much more difficult to host groups of more than maybe a half-dozen and to Keep All Group Participants Together!
In any case, we'll all have to wait until later this week to view more details of the revised shelter-in-place orders.
Hope that everyone stays safe +and+ at home :}
