County reopening confusing AF

SLOCo’s Dr. Penny holds the power, but before she starts the graaaadual process of the next phase of a reopening effort, she asked 200 of the county’s business leaders for input on a Roadmap to Reopening.

Meanwhile, hospitals in SLO are so slow they’re laying off workers, so it’s clear we have done a great job of staying home, but now what?
