CALIFORNIA RANKS 3RD IN COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS

Americans experienced months of heavy restrictions on their everyday life in order to fight the coronavirus pandemic, but now all states have at least partially reopened and are gradually expanding the types of businesses that are open. In order to determine the states with the fewest coronavirus restrictions, the personal finance website, WalletHub, compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia across 16 key metrics. Managing editor Tami Roleff says California ranks as one of the most restrictive states…

Overall, California ranks as having the third most coronavirus restrictions. The rankings are based on requirements for having a face covering; travel restrictions for state employees, civilians, and members of the military; whether large gatherings were banned; the closure of all schools; whether it ordered bars and restaurants to close, and issuing guidance for them to reopen; the re-opening of child care centers and non-essential businesses; and more.
