David, the co-creator of “Seinfeld” and star of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” cut a public service announcement for the California governor’s office, encouraging people to keep their distance.

“I basically wanna address all the idiots out there, and you know who you are,” David said in the PSA, sitting at his home. "You’re socializing too close, it’s not good. You’re hurting old people like me. Well, not me, I have nothing to do with you. I’ll never see you, but, you know, other old people who might be your relatives.”
