27 Million People in California Are Forced to Stay Home Due to COVID-19

California has told 27 million residents to stay home via emergency alert on their cell phones. The alert was triggered by a huge spike in new cases, more than 23,500 per day, which authorities believe is the start of the long-feared Thanksgiving weekend surge. In Britain, the rollout of the vaccine is going off without a hitch, though two people did suffer allergic reactions. Americans who refuse the vaccine run the risk of being fired, as many companies are expected to require it of employees.
