A dozen Orange County-operated beaches join a growing list of city shorelines that will close in an effort to keep crowds from congregating and potentially spreading the coronavirus.

Los Angeles and Ventura counties will close beaches for the entire holiday weekend, while several Orange County cities will close their shores Saturday.over the Fourth of July. The City Council voted Tuesday to close city-operated beaches entirely on July 4, a day that typically draws massive crowds to the city. On Thursday, the city decided to extend its closure until 5 a.m. Monday.

“Particularly on the Fourth of July when there were fireworks ... it looked like sardines in a can,” Mayor Pro Tem Steve Dicterow said this week. “There was no space in between people. My concern is that even without the fireworks, there just may be a huge density of people on the beaches.”

It’s safe at the beach as long as you bring placards, stand shoulder to shoulder and repeatly shout “Newsom must go”

The Orange County beaches of today barely resemble the OC beaches of the 1960s where I grew up. I am so glad to have had that one decade of rapturous, innocent enjoyment. Never again.

Thanks a lot, DeplorableVectors

If 100s of 1000s of protesters yelling and spewing germs on each other don't spread the virus according to Garcetti then how can people on the beach spread it? Here's an idea everyone act like they are a protester, carry a stupid sign and go to the beach. Lmao!
