It is great to have these numbers but there is no way they are accurate except for how many people are in the ICU…we need to be testing more starting with all the “essential” wworkers because if the guy stocking the shelves has it(unknowingly) then someone comes by him and buys what he is stocking and so on…

Santa Maria leads Santa Barbara County with 48 cases….why?


https://publichealthsbc.org/


What is the SB County Public Health Dept. doing to prevent groups of all ages gathering for shopping or recreation in Santa Maria? Are people being educated?


If things stay this course, Marian Regional Medical Center is going to be overwhelmed and the Italian experience will be replicated in our own backyard.

That’s only 18 new cases in the last five days. I’m staying home, it sucks, but it seems the right thing to do and when I have ventured out, people are being smart as far as I can tell. Keep it up and we will beat this thing sooner than later.
