== San Francisco cancels some public gatherings, add? ==

San Francisco canceled all public gatherings of 1,000 or more people for at least two weeks. In light of the moratorium, the [[Chase Center]] will be empty for Thursday’s [[Golden State Warriors]] game against the [[Brooklyn Nets]].

:{{u|Emerson7}}, No. The title should be consistent with the others in [[:Category:2019–20 coronavirus pandemic by country and territory]]. ---[[User:Another Believer|<span style="color:navy">Another Believer</span>]] <sub>([[User talk:Another Believer|<span style="color:#C60">Talk</span>]])</sub> 17:17, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

== Economic impact (list) ==
Hi wikipedians,
In this section, if you use ref from news article, please also verify from the business, college, or government facility. Please include start and end dates (for temporary closure). Since coronavirus situation is very dynamic, the best ref is the main source and verifiable. Keep the summary short.[[User:SWP13|SWP13]] ([[User talk:SWP13|talk]]) 02:02, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

== Homeless population ==
IMHO, Since there are many homeless people in California, if this infects a homeless person, it will spread like wild fire.[[User:SWP13|SWP13]] ([[User talk:SWP13|talk]]) 02:37, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
:{{u|SWP13}}, I found some sources specifically about the pandemic's impact on homeless populations in Oregon. You might search to see if similar sources exist for California. ---[[User:Another Believer|<span style="color:navy">Another Believer</span>]] <sub>([[User talk:Another Believer|<span style="color:#C60">Talk</span>]])</sub> 17:18, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

>>Thanks. I'll try to stay off this topic for awhile.[[User:SWP13|SWP13]] ([[User talk:SWP13|talk]]) 22:46, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

== Is there any detailed map tracking the confirmed cases? ==
Does anyone know if there is a live update (google) map of where exactly the coronavirus cases has been confirmed across California, at least by county? The maps that I found on google so far only shows total number of cases across the entire California, which is not helpful for preventing the spread of the virus!

Is there any people who know how to make a custom google map which can put flags on where the confirmed cases were found or being treated, based on public information? For example, putting flags on NorthBay VacaValley Hospital, Scripps Green Hospital, and the county where cases were confirmed on interactive google map so people are aware and can avoid going to or be extra cautious when traveling to these places?

Thank you. ---[[User:Wadawadaw|Wadawadaw]] ([[User talk:Wadawadaw|talk]]) 17:15, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

I've created '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject COVID-19|WikiProject COVID-19]]''' as a temporary or permanent WikiProject and invite editors to use this space for discussing ways to improve coverage of the ongoing [[2019–20 coronavirus pandemic]]. Please bring your ideas to the project/talk page.

It would be helpful to have the State level data of "New cases" both in chart form and in graphical form. This is included on a national level, but not state.
The reason why this is helpful is that about 2 wks after "shelter in place" the number of new cases begins to level off and then go down (see data on China, South Korea, and now with Italy's shelter in place start date of 3/10, to see that this trend has been consistent). Having the "New Cases" on the state level, will help people see that what they are doing is starting to work, and that the graph is not continuing exponentially.

== San Diego cases ==
The county website now shows 33 cases [https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/content/sdc/hhsa/programs/phs/community_epidemiology/dc/2019-nCoV/status.html#Table] (up from 8 on Friday). I'm uncertain about editing the table but could someone update the numbers? Thanks. -[[Special:Contributions/68.7.103.137|68.7.103.137]] ([[User talk:68.7.103.137|talk]]) 04:40, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

:I'm trying to stay on top of it. Reporting across counties is very inconsistent and there isn't always a good source for daily data. [[User:Michaelrhanson|Michaelrhanson]] ([[User talk:Michaelrhanson|talk]]) 14:49, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

== Concern: daily case counts in Timeline losing utility? ==
As someone in an affected county, I've found the data on this page for my county useful for seeing:
# The current total count (i.e. how bad is it right now?)
# The trend over time (i.e. how bad is it going to be?) through the Medical Case Count visualization

[[2020_coronavirus_pandemic_in_California#Timeline|The Timeline]] currently provides daily case counts for some counties but I don't think the format is useful for (2). Also, it only seems to be providing numbers in prose so I think it would benefit from a data-oriented format (e.g. a table). Should we find an alternative format that maintains the data but creates a visualization allowing one to see the trend over time? To be honest, I'm not sure what that would look like given the large number of counties we're tracking.

For what it's worth, the [[Timeline_of_the_2020_coronavirus_pandemic_in_the_United_States]] only contains notable events rather than daily case counts in each of the states and each states' visualization is broken into a separate page.

:Agreed (and I'm the editor putting most of the data in); I do wish there was a better place to put day-by-day reportage so that we could generate growth graphs automatically while maintaining the citation trail.

== Unsourced medical claim ==

I think this article needs a warning, since it's commonly professionally estimated that the undiagnosed cases outnumber diagnosed cases by around 50:1 (depends on the estimate, of course). Just because the US government is hiding it, (unlike South Korea's) doesn't mean we should be violating [[WP:NPOV]] by going along with it.

We should be tracking hospital admissions too.

And since the shelter in place order is statewide, how 'bout collapsing the Economic impact lists? They're only of historical relevance now, right? --[[Special:Contributions/50.201.195.170|50.201.195.170]] ([[User talk:50.201.195.170|talk]]) 01:03, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Placer County Daily numbers are not correct

Placer county recently switched their daily Covid-19 case count page from a simple table to an arcgis map dashboard style web page. The current web page tools to gather the Placer county case totals have not been working since the Placer county web page made the change.

Endemic approach

Governor Newsom has announced an "endemic approach" to COVID-19 in California. It's the first US state to shift response to COVID-19 as an endemic disease, although Newsom has stated that "this pandemic won't have a defined end":
