SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — After Governor Gavin Newsom detailed plans for a regional stay-at-home order based on ICU capacity, some Bay Area counties decided to enact it early.

- Outdoor recreation: No overnight stays, no food/drink/alcohol sales
- Worship: Outdoor services only
- Restaurants: Take-out only
- Offices: Remote work only, unless not possible for critical infrastructure sectors
