In defiance of Governor Gavin Newsom's statewide stay-at-home order, Yuba and Sutter counties in Northern California are gearing up to allow businesses to reopen on Monday. 

Likewise, Modoc County on Friday allowed businesses, schools, and churches to reopen as long as people remained six feet apart. The county has fewer than 9,000 residents. 


Yuba and Sutter counties have a combined population of 171,000 people with just 50 coronavirus cases and 3 deaths, the Los Angeles Times reports

The counties have announced that they would allow for the reopening of restaurants, retailers, shopping malls, gyms, fitness studios, salons, spas, and tattoo parlors. Establishments will be required to offer hand sanitizer at the entrance and enforce a six-foot distancing rule. 

Bars and nightclubs that don't serve food, museums, movie theaters, bowling alleys, arcades, live performance venues, places of worship, schools, community centers, beaches, and summer camps will all remain shuttered. 

Social gatherings of more than 10 people are banned.
