Los Angeles County issues emergency alert for corona virus.

First time I've ever got one. It popped up on my phone like an Amber alert.

The order is effective immediately and will be enforced through April 19, according to the county. Essential shopping and travel is allowed. Local news shows lots of idiots still going to parks and beaches. Look at our numbers, the big city mayors and governor need to be tougher and get control or California is going to the new Italy on the Pacific.




All public beaches, public trails, and bike paths are closing in Los Angeles County to slow the spread of the corona virus disease.

All public beaches, bike paths, and public trails in Los Angeles County are temporarily closing to prevent large crowds in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus disease, known as COVID-19.
