San Francisco is banning gatherings of more than 1,000 people for at least two weeks because of the coronavirus, a decree that will impact Golden State Warriors home games.
Mayor London N. Breed made the announcement Wednesday morning.
“We know that this order is disruptive, but it is an important step to support public health,” Breed said in a statement. “We’re following the recommendations of public health officials to slow the spread of COVID-19 in our community.”
“We know canceling these events is a challenge for everyone, and we’ve been talking with venues and event organizers about the need to protect public health.
