How a reclusive 'town of aging hippies' worked to screen itself from coronavirus
BOLINAS, Calif. — When the coronavirus outbreak appeared likely to rage through the Bay Area weeks ago, residents of this hermitlike beach community tried to protect themselves by doing what they do best — keeping out strangers.
Despite a regional stay-home order, outsiders were inundating Bolinas, which sits just south of Point Reyes National Seashore in west Marin County. Yelling matches ensued. Residents posted themselves at the entrance to town and shouted at drivers, “Go home!”
Under a homemade “Bernie 2020” sign painted in red, residents hung two others: “Bolinas closed to visitors for duration of pandemic. Residents, deliveries only.”
Working with volunteer and nonprofit groups, Jyri Engestrom organized a testing project for all willing residents, Bolinas employees and front-line workers. On Friday, the University of California, San Francisco, which processed the samples, announced the results of 1,845 nasal and oral swab tests. No one was infected.
