California has acquired over 15,000 hotel rooms to shelter homeless people during thecoronavirus pandemic, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Saturday.
Newsom said a new agreement with the Motel 6 hotel chain will provide an additional 5,025 hotel rooms at 47 locations in 19 counties.
“Today marks an important milestone for our efforts to protect very vulnerable homeless individuals from COVID-19, and to protect our hospitals more broadly from surges that challenge our capacity and stress our system,” the governor said.

Will they get EBT room service ?
ReplyDeleteI read in a USA Today website column that OC Maryland hotels have opened their doors to people who are quarantined and (homeless?). Not sure about the homeless but they definitely mentioned OC MD. I was shocked. I do hope they publish the names of these hotels so I can be sure not to ever stay -there. Anyone else aware of this.

ReplyDeleteNorthwest Woodsman: Can you imagine what those rooms will look like in a matter of days. The building will require a napalm strike to kill all the viruses and bacteria as well as all the rest of their filth. If you have never patted down a homeless vagrant searching for weapons, you have no idea how unpleasant it can be and then to have your patrol vehicle fumigated because of lice and tuberculosis.
