The coronavirus lockdown is giving everyone, especially celebrities a major case of the quarantine blues! As the country struggles to get the coronavirus under control, many states are enacting 'stay and shelter' orders with the exception of "essential activities." Stars have been finding various ways of fighting cabin fever as they self-quarantine -- usually by soaking up sun in the fresh SoCal air or running errands around town.
Australian-born actress Naomi Watts and husband Liev Schreiber recently packed up their belongings and landed in Los Angeles with their children as coronavirus cases in New York top 30,000, by far the most in the nation. The two-time Academy Award nominee posted a few cute photos of her journey to her Instagram account.
After getting settled in on the west coast, Watts was able to clear her mind by partaking in a leisurely bike ride with 12-year-old son Alexander. She's been seen taking extra precautions from the virus by sporting latex gloves during her grocery run as she stocks up for lockdown.
Oscar winner Casey Affleck beat the boredom by hitting the streets for a game of football with 12-year-old son Atticus. The duo tossed the ball around and ran a few drills as they pass time during lockdown. The doting dad showed off his long ball while Atticus sprinted down the street in attempt to make the catch.
Goldie Hawn shows she's still every bit the bombshell at age 74. The blonde beauty displayed her sun-kissed glow in all-black workout gear as the mother-of-three takes an afternoon stroll with a pal. Not pictured is the love of her life, Kurt Russell, with whom she's been partnered with for over 37 years.
Olivier Martinez isn't a fan of food delivery services so the French actor broke from quarantine to pick up a few vital items at Bristol Farms in West Hollywood. The 54-year-old shares a 6-year-old son, Maceo Robert Martinez, with ex-wife, Halle Berry.

Last week California became the first state to mandate a stay-home order when Governor Gavin Newsom put an edict in place to slow down the spread of coronavirus infections. The order remains in place until further notice and citizens are ordered not to leave home except for "essential purposes".

Kristen Stewart took her mind off the pandemic by chilling at the park with pals. The gang maintained a safe distance from one another as they mingled in the afternoon sun. Afterward, they enjoyed a leisurely stroll before heading to K-Stew's pad for lunch.
Charlize Theron picked up a few necessities at Bristol Farms supermarket in Beverly Hills with daughter August and son Jackson. The two can be seen running ahead of mom, Jackson hiding his face as he heads to the car. One thing that stands out... no face masks or gloves for this crew! Be safe, guys!
Swedish star Malin Akerman took son Sebastian to the park for some fresh air and a game of ball. The pair kicked the soccer ball around, threw it, and rolled around on the grass after being "safer at home" for days following California governor Gavin Newsom's mandate.
SNL alum Jason Sudeikis got his blood flowing on the crowded hiking trails -- despite rising death tolls due to the pandemic.
It seems even celebrities are willing to run the risk of infection in order to maintain some normalcy to their lives!

It's doesn't matter if it's the doctors or the nurses, the ambulance drivers, first responders, the people that work in the grocery stores or supermarkets, or if it is people delivering food to homes where people are starving. All those people are real heroes... I just want you to know that I appreciate it so much. I've played an action hero my whole life in the movies, but you are the true action heroes. Congratulations and thank you for serving the community."
