Fines of up to $ 1,000 and 6 months in prison for those who do not stay home in California for the coronavirus | Univision News United States

Los Angeles California.- Californians went to sleep this Thursday surprised by the historic partial curfew that Governor Gavin Newsom ordered seeking to stop the upward curve of coronavirus cases. Was the first state in the country to take such drastic action.

The executive order indicates that you should not leave home unless it is for “essential” activities, how to buy food, medicine and gasoline; go for a walk in the park; caring for a sick or elderly family member; visit the doctor and work in offices considered essential (doctors, nurses, police, firefighters, supermarket employees, bank tellers, etc.).

This extraordinary measure that affects more than 40 million people in California took effect from Thursday afternoon (when the governor enacted it) and will remain indefinite.

Will there be a punishment for those who do not obey? Under what circumstances are you allowed to leave home? Below, we explain what this state mandate consists of due to the covid-19 pandemic.
