(CNN) Southern California and San Joaquin Valley residents will be under a stay-at-home order after the intensive care unit capacity in the two regions fell below 15%, triggering a mandate issued by the governor earlier this week that aims to bring down the soaring number of Covid-19 hospitalizations. The order goes into effect Sunday at 11:59 p.m. PT for the some 27 million people in the regions, which includes Los Angeles and San Diego. That follows a proactive order issued by six San Francisco Bay Area jurisdictions on Friday for its almost 6 million residents.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said he is considering imposing another lockdown. This lockdown would be a stay-at-home order, according to Business Insider. This move on Newsom's part comes as hospitalizations in the state spike amid COVID-19 surges. About 75% of California's 7,733 ICU beds are occupied. California hospitals could reach 112% of capacity by December 24th. If these trends continue, California will have to take much more dramatic, arguably drastic, actions.
