Déjà vu All Over Again: California Gov. Newsom Imposes Statewide Indoor Mask Mandate

‘I want to see Hollywood and the elites comply with Gavin Newsom’s mask mandate’

By Katy Grimes, December 13, 2021 5:02 pm

On the heels of New York Governor Kathy Hoshul’s indoor mask order, Gov. Gavin Newsom just imposed yet another mask mandate on all of California.

Oregon Governor Kate Brown recently imposed a statewide mask mandate and is preparing to make it permanent. Masks forever.

It’s hard not to wonder if these blue state governors are trying to outdo each other.

Former Director of National Intelligence and Ambassador to Germany Ric Grenell replied on Twitter: “I want to see Hollywood and the elites comply with @GavinNewsom’s mask mandate. This means TV talk shows, movie sets, professional sports teams, performers and local news anchors all must wear masks first.”

Given that Gov. Newsom recently extended California’s State of Emergency because “COVID,” and then promptly took a vacation to Mexico, and then went on a book tour to promote his new children’s book. He stopped by a few talk shows: “He went on the View, the Daily Show, and the Late Late Show in what might have been called a Tour de Lies,” Assemblyman Kevin Kiley said.

Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said the mask mandate will be effective Wednesday Dec. 15, and remain in effect until Jan. 15. Why Wednesday? Why not immediately if there is such an urgency?

“We are proactively putting this tool of universal indoor masking in public settings in place to ensure we get through a time of joy and hope without a darker cloud of concern and despair,” Ghaly said. “Californians have done this before, and we, of course, believe we can do it again.”

Ghaly says “Since Thanksgiving, the statewide seven-day average case rate has increased by 47% and hospitalizations have increased by 14%.”

I was recently at Sutter General Hospital in Sacramento and there was one COVID patient being treated at the gigantic hospital.

“This new measure brings an added layer of mitigation as the Omicron variant, a Variant of Concern as labeled by the World Health Organization, is detected across California, the United States, and the world and is likely to spread more easily than the original SARS-CoV-2 virus and the Delta variant,” Ghaly said.

Current stats on California’s COVID Dashboard report:

0.1 new deaths (per 100K)

And testing in the Past 8 weeks = 2.2% test positivity.

No worries. It’s just temporary; we’re all in this together.

  1. As Katy mentioned, if it’s such an emergency why would Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly wait until Wednesday? Knowledgeable people know that masks are totally ineffective against small virus particles and that the evil Democrat cabal are reimposing their silly mask mandates to control the masses. Do not comply!

    1. Because it’s political theater probably related to the upcoming midterm elections. We are stuck with Newsom for another 6 years.

  2. California was given enough Federal money to build and staff dozens of new hospitals.

    We should never want for hospital beds ever again, but Newsom pissed it all away a few hundred dollars at a time by giving it to people who didn’t need it and never earned it.

    I don’t want to hear guys who suck at their jobs, like Newsom and Dr. Mark Ghaly whine about the hospitals being full. Failure to think ahead on their part does not make for an emergency on mine.

  3. Masks only serve to show servitude, damage your immune system, deprive your brain of oxygen. Crimes against humanity and children, but they already knew that, and will be held to account. Nuremberg 2.0 has begun.
    This is over when people do not comply. Even Democrat Gov. Poulis, Colorado, has ended all mandates (which are not laws), because he knows the 2-weeks to flatten the curve dog and pony show is over.

  4. Katy Grimes, you really need to put a sock in it!
    Gov Newsom is doing the right thing. Just as predicted, the winter surge of Covid is underway.
    Cases in CA are at their highest in many months. Its only going to get worse.
    The governor needs to go further. A statewide lockdown and stay-at-home order is needed.
    I have already suggested this to the governor.
    Here’s the link to the gov website for sending a message: https://www.gov.ca.gov/

    1. W16521 needs to wear at least 3 masks at all times, keep 6 feet or more distance from others at all times, get weekly vaccine boosters, and cower in a safe place until Gavin Newsom and the Democrat cabal give further dictates on what to do next.

    2. Why don’t you shut up..!! You’re a perfect example of the term sheeple..!!

      It is about control and your coke snorting Governor is demanding people to bow down to him and worship him.

      I’ve had Covid, two shots, and an antibody test that is thru the roof.

      All Gruesome Newscum wants is sheeple like you to suck up to him.

    3. W16521, is Governor Climate Change and the rest of the lefty Democraptic pukes in this state going to wear masks? You know the Democraptic pukes like London Breed, Nancy “Stretch” Pelosi, Sam Liccardo, Diane Feinstein, and especially Governor Climate Change. Are they going to maybe hang out together at the French Laundry and “get caught in the vibe of the moment” maskless and giving us the finger while violating their own rules? Just make sure you wear your mask ESPECIALLY when you are in your car driving by yourself! Governor Climate Change needs to look at states like Florida and Texas where they don’t have mask and vaccination mandates and the covid rates are much lower than California. Also the Omikron or whatever they are calling the latest version this week has not killed anyone. The doctor in South Africa who discovered it last month has publicly stated that no one there has died from it or has been hospitalized from it.

    4. This political…no science behind it. Flimsy paper masks do nothing to stop the spread of a virus. But you keep pushing the hype for the gov.

    5. How is it that you have learned nothing in the last two years? Seriously is it really possible at this point to still be this gullible and misinformed?

    6. @w16521
      You still don’t understand that “cases” are meaningless?? Hospitalizations and deaths are the only numbers that matter and even those are being skewed because some of those people are people who were tested while in the hospital for something completely unrelated…
      South African doctors told the world that Omicron (anagram for Moronic) symptoms are VERY MILD but that is being ignored because this plandemic was always about control and not public health…

  5. NOPE, Dictator Newsom doesn’t have a leg to stand on and we’re done. No one who has any sense is taking this B.S. seriously anymore and people who aren’t yet brain-dead have not been on board with his lies since April of 2020. Really, before that, going back to January 2019, “pre-pandemic.” As has been repeatedly shown on this site, over the past almost TWO YEARS, this nonsense he and his groupies push isn’t science (and they know it). What’s more, any virologist or epidemiologist worth anything who hasn’t been frightened to death or brainwashed will tell you that we’ve known for a L-O-N-G time that when viruses mutate they WEAKEN. And so it is with this latest scare-variant and we should not submit to the constant fear porn.

  6. Only one month? Seems like I have heard that one before.

    Wanna take bets on how many months it will actually end up lasting?

    1. Has it ever ended??
      It only ends when we refuse to wear them. I have been entering stores without one.. I get looks but have not been stopped.

  7. These fear mongerers are going to try to extend this CHARADE of kabuki-theater virtue signaling through the midterm elections next year…
    They’re looking for the opportunity to mandate all the smokescreens that they used to steal the 2020 Presidential election AND Newsom’s recall election…

    Go pound sand , Democrats… We’re not playing your psy-op any longer….

      1. W14661, why don’t you knock off the pointless policy-parroting and just keep your own nose clean, okay? Because somehow you don’t strike me as an altruistic type who is concerned about other people’s health and well-being.

      2. The NY Post is the oldest newspaper in the US and it gives the truth something that the left wing news media does not. Covid is not surging and no one has died from Omikron or Omicron or whatever the left is calling it this week. Governor Climate Change should look at Texas and Florida where there are no mask or vaccination mandates and the covid rates are much lower than California’s. Check it out.

  8. Terrible. There is no evidence that Covid is a problem for most people. Vaccination rates are already high for the elderly (the only demographic that are affected by hospitalization and death), and boosters are already available. With the mask mandates, it’s just a way to control people by fear and exert authoritarian measures.

    Many people will not be receptive to Ghaly’s words and will either protest or not comply.

  9. Masks offer ZERO protection from virus’s. This has been documented over and over again in major medical journals. No doubt most of these studies have been deleted but I looked them up back at the beginning of this satanic farce. The boxes used to have a warning printed on them that they offer NO protection from virus’s.

  10. According to The Epoch Times, San Francisco offices and gyms where everyone is vaccinated won’t have to follow Newsom’s mask mandate for both the vaxxed and unvaxxed according to the city’s health department. San Francisco Health Officer Susan Philip said the California Department of Public Health granted a mask exemption, describing the move as the “recognition of all of the thought and care that San Francisco residents have been putting into all staying as safe as possible.” Contra Costa and Marin counties told the Chronicle on Tuesday that they will also receive exemptions to the statewide masking order. So much for equity when it comes to the Democrat cabal’s mask mandates?

  11. Well the film crews are being forced to. It’s not even in line with the CDC. Last summer while shooting a western in the desert we were forced to wear masks in 100-115 degree heat outdoors, not a crowd of hundreds, while carrying gear all day. Are you getting the spins or migraines because it’s hard to basically work out and wear this all day? Take 10min, ok now you’re better. The masks become fuzzy sweat rags from hell. It’s been like that for almost 2 years now. Every show you’ve enjoyed that’s been made since 2019 has has a crew of people dealing with this shit for 12-14 hours each day. I’m tired of reading articles written by journalists working from home in the ac now how “it’s just a piece of fabric”, “You’re selfish if you admit it’s miserable”, and most annoying “Oh well, it’s a new normal”. It’s always just “three more months”.
    This is the same tactic the airlines use when planes are late. It seems like we’re being conditioned into this being permanent, but they don’t want a bigger spike in suicides, alcoholism and depression than they already have.

  12. Well the film crews are being forced to. It’s not even in line with the CDC. Last summer while shooting a western in the desert we were forced to wear masks in 100-115 degree heat outdoors, not a crowd of hundreds maybe 5-10 spread out over a wide area, while carrying gear all day. Are you getting the spins or migraines because it’s hard to basically work out and wear this all day? Take 10min and some electrolytes ta-da. The masks become fuzzy sweat rags from hell. It’s been like that for almost 2 years now. Every show you’ve enjoyed that’s been made since 2019 has has a crew of people dealing with this shit for 12-14 hours each day.

If you have an immuno problem wear a damn mask. A lot of us would like to embrace the minimal risk and live our lives again. Besides it’s estimated that updating the vaccines for new variants would only take 3 months since the system is in place. I’m done with the theatrics.
