With the spread of #COVID19 and stay-at-home orders, Los Angeles looks wildly different. Traffic is light, the skies are clear, and there's a new, surreal silence. Visual journalist @chavatweets1 went to document what it looks like. ⤵️

This is such an important question from @cronkitenews . Over the weekend, some city and state parks were full of people. How safe are we being if we all go outside to recreate during this time of #COVID19?
Despite repeated requests to practice social distancing to limit the spread of COVID-19, more and more people are choosing to take their plans outdoors. Do you think Arizona should close its parks and trails to limit crowds?
