California Gov. Gavin Newsom, discusses his decision to withdraw several hundred National Guard troops from the nation's southern border and changing their mission, during a Capitol news conference, February 11, 2019, in Sacramento, California.California Gov. Gavin Newsom in a letter to President Donald Trump on Thursday asked to "immediately deploy" a United States Navy hospital ship to the Los Angeles port to assist in the coronavirus outbreak.
"This resource will help decompress the health care delivery system to allow the Los Angeles region to ensure that it has the ability to address critical acute care needs, such as heart attacks, and strokes or vehicle accidents, in addition to the rapid rise in COVID-19 cases," Newsom added. Newsom and other city leaders declared an emergency and enacted several measures to prevent the outbreak from spreading. San Francisco authorities mandated residents to "shelter in place" on Monday, restricting over 6 million people from non-essential travel until early April. The move was praised by New York City mayor Bill de Blasio, who said that his city, which has a population density similar to that of Los Angeles, should be modeled after San Francisco's response.

The government could easily convert cruise ships to hospital ships when the official hospital ship runs out of beds. What color are his eyes? This is relevant. 💜
CA projection seems unrealistic. China, the epicentre, has 81,155 cases as of today. How does CA project 25 million? If no action is taken to prevent or contain? FuzzyMath
