Governor Gavin Newsom has issued stay at home orders per region based on their capacity of ICU beds available. The order is in effect whenever a 15% capacity threshold is met for that region. As of right now, the Central Valley (also known as the San Joaquin Valley) is very near that 15% threshold, and as COVID-19 continually gets worse for Fresno, it is very likely we will see stay at home orders enforced soon. Just yesterday, Fresno has actually set a record for most cases in a single day — 320, and that’s not even accounting for the Thanksgiving surge.
