Covid-19

Gov. Gavin Newsom said the pause is not expected to have a significant impact on California’s vaccine allocation or plans to reopen by mid-June — a plan that is contingent on adequate vaccine supply.

People in need of in-home care have been near the top of the eligibility list since early in the vaccine roll-out. But there are likely still thousands of people unable to leave their homes trying to figure out how to access the shot.

Gov. Gavin Newsom is running two races this spring: The first is to clobber the coronavirus pandemic that has killed nearly 60,000 Californians and devastated businesses and schools with unprecedented restrictions. The second is to keep his job, which could be threatened by a recall election later this year.

California could end its tiered reopening system and fully reopen its economy June 15, but only with adequate vaccine supply and hospitalizations from COVID-19 remaining stable enough to not stress health systems.
