CDC should have seen this coming if they were on top of everything and doing their job...and mandated that all grocery stores in SF ban re-usable shopping bags and go to good old paper back in January

there's far less that care about the turtles, so I can see why SF went with plastic
gosh, the poor folks in SF must have been crying in their café latte over this one
