Coronavirus: California identifies nail salons as source of spread, Gov. Newsom says
- Community spread of the coronavirus in California began in a nail salon, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday, as other states allow their manicurists to reopen.
- "This whole thing started in the state of California, the first community spread, in a nail salon," Newsom said at a news briefing. "I'm very worried about that."
- State health directors have put some "red flags" on nail salons as a high-risk business, Newsom added, likening them to gyms and hair salons.
