The Times asked the leading Republican replacement candidates a series of questions to understand how they would handle COVID-19 as governor of California. Here's how they responded👇
The rate of vaccinated is encouraging, but concerns remain: thousands remain hospitalized, and about 89 people are still dying of COVID each day.
Children under 12 remain ineligible for COVID-19 vaccinations, and some students are immunocompromised or have health issues that make them more vulnerable to the disease than others. An optional mask policy, in which one parent could make a decision that affects the health of another person’s child, is a set-up for disaster, Wachter said.
If he were elected governor, Kiley said he would advise that “testing and quarantining requirements should not extend beyond what is recommended by the CDC,” and he would “communicate best practices to local health departments and school districts.”Kiley said decisions on school rules “would be left in the hands of local communities and their citizens” but noted limits on “what measures government officials can take at any level.
“Yes, I support local districts having local control on those decisions, based on the foundation that schools are open for in-classroom instruction,” Faulconer said.Of all his pandemic decisions, Newsom’s business restrictions may have earned the most pushback. The governor ordered all but essential businesses to shutter early on and toggled between opening and closing certain types of businesses with capacity limits depending on the spread of the virus in a particular county.
Kiley offered a similar limited-government approach, suggesting there was no situation that would inspire him to reduce the number of customers indoors at businesses statewide. He said he would reverse “steps California has taken towards a government-mandated verification system” for vaccines and “mandates to the full extent of my legal authority.”He said it wasn’t clear that a governor had the authority to stop businesses from requiring patrons or employees to provide proof of vaccination.
