As restrictions start to ease and summer begins, people are hitting the beach. Here's what's different: NewNormal
While rules vary across the world, here is what you would find at Los Angeles County beaches like Santa Monica and Malibu:* No lounging around on the sand. Use of the beach is limited to activities such as swimming, surfing, and biking.* Both in and out of the water, stay at least six feet from others who are not members of your household.* Wear a face covering while out of the water if there are other people nearby.Spending time outdoors is a low-risk activity in the era of the coronavirus.
“People have been cooped up for several weeks now,” said Dr. Timothy Brewer, an epidemiologist at the University of California, Los Angeles. “Going to visit beaches or mountains are relatively lower-risk activities compared to being around people in an enclosed indoor space like a store or a theater.”“The advantage of being outside is that if someone does have COVID-19 and they are releasing respiratory droplets, the droplets will be rapidly dispersed.
