As Californians face increasingly restrictive orders to curb the swelling pandemic, public health experts say the targeted measures applied so far — including indoor dining bans and statewide curfews — may not be enough, and another strict lockdown may be on the horizon. There is growing evidence that blunt lockdowns, which require people to stay at home except for certain permitted activities, are effective in slowing the spread of the virus, particularly as case numbers and hospitalizations soar. But those orders are difficult to maintain and can cause serious economic damage. California health officials have mostly resisted such orders since the first shelter-in-place command was issued in March, relying instead on a so-called “dimmer switch” approach, promoted by Gov. Gavin Newsom, that targets specific activities and industries. But cases are exploding across California and parts of the state are coming precariously close to hitting intensive care capacity in hospitals. The governor said some regions could run out of ICU beds in just a week or two. And that’s before California sees any impact from Thanksgiving gatherings and travel.
