Here at home, more than 4,300 cases in bay area and Santa Cruz County and 116 people died. Attempts to get people back on the job after being i being the cdc has looked at the essential workforce and how to maintain that workforce, particularly at this time as we begin to get ready to reopen and have confidence and bringing our workforces back to work. So now the cdc director says employees should take their temperature before they go to work, wear a face mask at all times and social distance at work and go home if they are feeling sick. The Strategic National stockpile is almost out of n95 masks. Surgical masks, face shields, gowns and other supplies. The house overnight sxhcommitte it has been distributed to state and local governments. The remaining 10 being held in reserve for federal workers. This is up to states to figure out how to come up with their own equipment. Governor newsom is pledging to spend up to 1 billion to buy 200 Million Masks a month for front line workers. In the south bay, people and businesses with a stockpile of personal protective equipment are asked to report it to Santa Clara County. This is a new order from the health department. County Officials Say they have a pretty good supply right now but they are preparing for a possible shortage ahead.

California is having some early success flattening the curve and now experts are trying to figure out why. They say social distancing is definitely helping, but only part of the explanation. New york with a state population half that of california has faired much worse during this pandemic. Heres a look at a graph from bay area and 14 surrounding counties so you can see the shape of orcurve. One thinks its possible coronavirus has been in our state since the fall. Victor hanson says in the fall, doctors reported an early and vicious flu season. During that same time,cong m8the havent quite found out yet. When you calculate, as well, there were people on direct flights to San Francisco and lax from wuhon, ground zero of the outbreak. Youd be naive to think that the california population wasnt exposed. If thats the case, a portion of our population may have already had covid19 and recovered and those people could have helped us build up immunity. A stanford study is looking further into this possibility and the conclusions are expected to be published in a few weeks. It was a rough night in northeast arkansas just about an hour ng to have to clean up this morning along with all the other issues were having to deal with because of covid19 and they had hail.

We started at 7 00 and go all the way to 3 00 and you can see the gray blanketing most of our neighborhood and may open for a little sunshine from time to time, but its not going to warm us much. You see a few green dots down there especially in the south bay. Thats one chance and as we head into the overnight hours, little chunk of energy is going to rotate back towards us and you can see wet weather in the Central Valley try to back its way towards us and also going to kind of fall apart as we head to tomorrow morning and then as we head to the afternoon hours. A little bit of a wind shift and northwest wind will develop and bring in drier air and little bit of sunshine as we head into the afternoon hours. If you get caught under one of the stray showers or drizzle this morning, a lot of times not even measurable but enough to make the ground wet and slipp y slippery. If youre one of our essential commuters, be careful out there because of that 0. 001 to 0. 02 at most. Look at the mid60s and upper 70s monday, tuesday and wednesday of next week.

Fauci also said that americans have the potential to take summer vacations if we continue these mitigation strategies. We dont want to undo all the work weve done but it could be in the cards. Kumasi. All right, good to hear that. Thanks. Berkeley is turning off pedestrian push buttons at 50 intersections.

This is an unfortunate study were seeing because it really is going to impact some people that, i mean, we all have been going outside. So, letsisten up, everybody. The six feet may not be enough. A european study that came out that saying joggers and runners specifically may need to give themselves greater distance. This is pretty much routine for us when we step outside. Here are the details. Researchers in belgium and another university in the netherlands found that someone infect would the virus could pass on respiratory droplets to people more than six feet behind them through a kind of vacuum they form as they cut through the air. Reggie and kumasi, i know there have been complaints specifically here in oakland and lake marit and people having problems with not having enough space. There are less people, but have you been finding it difficult yourself when youre out there . I have. So, what ive taken to doing since theres not so many vehicles in the road, i have been running in the road. People who are pushing strollers or taking a walk with two people at a time and taking up most of the sidewalk, that way were no where near each other. That seems to work and, also, i dont think you can go to places like like marin. Too many people out there. Reggie, get out of the streets. I think its safe, kumasi. I need you guys to come back, okay. Especially the bike lanes. No ones in there. And the drivers, to be fair, the drivers are being very cautious because theyre aware that there are more people trying to like avoid the sidewalk. Okay, friends. Please be safe. Thats all i ask.
