California estimates that more than half of the state — 25.5 million people — will get the new coronavirus over the next eight weeks, according to a letter sent by Gov. Gavin Newsom to U.S. President Donald Trump.

“In the last 24 hours, we had 126 new COVID-19 cases, a 21 percent increase. In some parts of our state, our case rate is doubling every four days,” Newsom wrote in a letter dated Wednesday. Newsom asked Trump to dispatch the USNS Mercy Hospital Ship to the Port of Los Angeles through Sept. 1 to help with the influx of expected cases.

California like New York are no longer on a curve. It's literally a straight line pointed up - the number of new cases per day. This is happening because widespread testing is now available and revealing that more people have the virus then was thought to have. Due to community spread - people who have the virus coming in contact with others - is creating a domino affect. If left uncheck (not enforcing mandatory self quarantine and social distancing) it may definitely reach that 25.5 million number. That number is a worst cast scenario BTW. Also keep in mind that the government is about to open the federal coffers and states are going to want lots of money especially as our government is now in a giving/lending mode.

They are no longer worrying about the death rate. Today's concern is overwhelming our hospitals and medical systems along with shortages of respirators and medical supplies .

Florida has got to be a state that will at least equal New York & California's case count,if not surpass it in the future.
The elder to younger ratio not to mention that attitude of those in charge like that of Clearwater.

Yes the population of FL is slanted towards 65+. But so is Arizona. FL is 20% while AZ is 17%. Not too much of a difference.

Those photos and videos from Clearwater were disturbing yes. And the governor has refused to close all the beaches (FL gets $40 billion a year from tourism) leaving it in the hands of local mayors and city councils.

Unfortunately, times of need and guidance can bring out the worst in leaders (DeSantis) as it can bring out the best (Cuomo).

The biggest issue with FL is not the number of it's cases but with the number of people that visit FL for a short time then leave and go back home.

California governor issues statewide 'stay at home' order over coronavirus

Quote:

LOS ANGELES, March 19 (Reuters) - California's governor on Thursday issued a statewide "stay at home order" directing residents to leave their homes only when necessary during the coronavirus pandemic.

Governor Gavin Newsom said that modeling has shown that 56 percent of California residents were expected to contract COVID-19 over the next eight weeks, requiring nearly 20,000 more hospital beds than the state could currently provide.

Newsom earlier on Thursday asked President Donald Trump to send a U.S. Navy hospital ship to the port of Los Angeles "immediately" as the state braces for the expected surge in the number of coronavirus cases.

He said Los Angeles, as the nation's second-largest city, would likely be "disproportionately impacted" by the pandemic in the coming weeks.

In a separate letter sent to U.S. congressional leaders, the governor asked for additional federal funding for unemployment insurance and social safety net programs and aid to small businesses, schools and universities.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom orders all Californians to stay at home

Quote:

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday ordered all Californians to stay at home, marking the first mandatory restrictions placed on the lives of all 40 million residents in the state’s fight against the novel coronavirus.

The governor’s order comes at a critical time in California, where 19 people died and another 958 have tested positive for the disease.

Officials hope telling people to remain in their homes and restrict social interactions will slow the spread of the virus and ultimately prevent hospitals from being overrun with sick patients. The request for all residents to quarantine at home marks the strongest escalation of the Newsom administration’s response to the virus.

Newsom on Thursday also asked Congress for $1 billion in federal funds to support the state’s medical response to the novel coronavirus, which he said he expects will infect more than half of all Californians.

The state projects that 25.5 million people in California will be infected with the coronavirus over an eight-week period, Newsom said in a letter sent to President Donald Trump on Wednesday requesting the deployment of the U.S. Navy’s Mercy Hospital Ship to the Port of Los Angeles through Sept. 1.
