All that said, individual counties may impose more stringent restrictions than the state mandates.

For instance, officials in Los Angeles County — which has struggled for months with stubbornly high case loads — have said that the virus is spreading to dangerous and unsustainable levels.

So, effective Friday, the county is requiring that restaurants operate at half capacity, even outdoors. Also, personal care businesses can’t accept walk-ins, and they must provide only services that don’t require customers to take their masks off.

As far as outdoor gatherings, which the state guidelines cap at simply three households, Los Angeles County is capping at 15 people.

And if things continue to get worse, officials say they will reimpose a stay-at-home order similar to the one the county implemented in March, which would require people to stay home except to go to essential businesses. (The threshold would be a five-day average of more than 4,000 new cases per day, or if there are more than 1,750 hospitalizations per day.)

San Francisco officials have also paused reopening plans without a state mandate.

So is there a curfew?

Although earlier this week, Mr. Newsom said he and other state officials were looking at research into whether some kind of statewide curfew could be effective, there is no such curfew right now.
