Wills Wing Further Update

The county retracted some of its press release

Note: This press release from the County of Orange is in response to an earlier press release about the recent Coronavirus health order, which officials acknowledge has created some confusion.

Public Health Order is NOT an Order to Shelter in Place

Today’s order from County Health Officer Dr. Nichole Quick is NOT an order to shelter in place. It is not a lockdown. It is important for all Orange County businesses to remain open while practicing social distancing consistent with the Governor’s guidance. However, following State guidelines, all bars and other establishments that serve alcohol and do not serve food shall close. All restaurants and other business establishments that serve food shall close all onsite dining. Pickup, delivery and drive thru services may remain open. It is important for all Orange County residents to read the order in its entirety.

Unfortunately, the order as written caused wide-spread confusion. In order to provide additional clarity requested by Orange County residents and businesses, the County will be issuing an amended Health Officer’s Order.

We're trying to adapt to the 'clarification' and I expect we might be able to operate at 50% capacity. I was planning on working full time anyway but the main problem is that Wills Wing depends on several people who are at high risk and for whom we don't have any replacements. For example, the guy who makes airframes has been here since 1982. We don't have extra resources to replace him and even the most qualified would struggle to match a fraction of his performance. We'll get through this one day at a time.
