There is an update to this order which says the previous order is not to shelter in place and businesses should stay open. They admit the first order caused widespread confusion.

ORIGINAL STORY
Orange County, California on Tuesday announced severe restrictions on residents in order to “minimize the Coronavirus outbreak.” For example, if you gather at all inside or outside with people, any number of people, not in your household, you could go to jail.
The chief health officer in Orange County announced a ban on in-restaurant dining, ordered bar closures and threatened to jail people who congregate.
“All public and private gatherings of any number of people, including at places of work, occurring outside a single household or living unit are prohibited,” the order stated.

The order went into effect immediately on Tuesday and will expire at midnight on March 31st.
“We are taking these mitigation steps in line with a directive issued by Governor Newsom to help slow the spread of COVID-19,” said Dr. Nichole Quick, County Health Officer.
Dr. Quick encouraged Orange County residents to ease their anxieties by reaching out to loved ones by text, phone and video messaging.
If you violate the order, they might fine or imprison you.
“To the extent necessary, this Order may be enforced by the Sheriff of chiefs of police pursuant to Government Code sections 26602 and 41601 and Health and Safety Code section 101029,” the order stated.
This goes too far.

Might as well be martial law, me thinks that the local gobermint in Orange County wants a police state.
Fascism at work from the Left.
@ JP,
Thanks for the positive spin. A www page said worst case was 15million dead and a $3 trillion hit to the economy.
A society too stupid to not ally itself with commies will feel the burn eventually. Maybe that is the only way people can learn anymore, the hand on the hot stove method.
Fear the copycat paper tiger China? Hardly. It would be rough but we would win eventually.
We should have thought about all this before the fifth column of globalist traitor rats built up China.
The ChiComs have launched World War III. They have covered up their collapsing economy, imposed incredibly restrictive measures on their own people, and thrown the West into Chaos. They released a bioweapon that will probably kill 2.5million people in the US and the UK according to recent projections of the Imperial College in the UK. In The Meantime, they have collected hundreds of billions of profits from their carefully orchestrated “panic.”
In the past 4 days the world’s markets have declined by the following:
-26%
-26%
-25%
-27%
-20%
-19%
-16%
-24%
-14%
-17%
-12%
– 17%
Now, look at this:
(China) + 0,3%
China, the creator of the pandemic, has miraculously “recovered”, has almost no more cases of coronavirus. The world is now beginning to feel the effects and panic about the disease. Who recovered first ?? China itself! It seems to be that this virus was a move by the Chinese government in response to the loss of the trade war with the United States. The goal: to throw the world into recession !!!
Is the scenario not clear? They are already growing! China bought almost everything it devalued on the stock exchanges around the world … with that the Chinese became owners of the global companies that are in China and without the money leaving China
