Strip club ruling on COVID rules protects all San Diego County restaurants, judge says
December 18, 2020 / 9:26 AM / CBS/AP COVID outbreak rages in California
A California judge cleared the way Thursday for all restaurants in San Diego County to resume on-site dining, marking a major, if temporary, setback to the governor s stay-at-home order to slow the spread of the coronavirus before the state s intensive care units run out of beds. Gov. Gavin Newsom immediately appealed, bringing uncertainty to restaurant owners weighing whether to buy food and schedule staff a week before Christmas amid the possibility that their victory could soon be reversed.
