These 3 people provide very very different perspectives.

Then the vaccine has to be manufactured rolled out of frozen because its a tricky vaccine to handle. There are not a nowhere near enough doses to go around by the end of this year so were probably talking about spring and summer of 2021 when you start having enough people vaccinated to make a material difference in in the course of covid in.

However, where a pocket of the coldest air will be probably appear in the north bay for most of the valleys again some outlining areas may drop into the upper 20s to east bay youre not technically in that, but you see plenty of 30s and you to me see some spots the drop below freezing looking ahead of our forecast period here weve got kind of unsettled weather for thursday and into friday and temperatures remain cool through the period sides.

Thinking of traveling or having family and friends over kron fours morning. Kelly joins us. Shes in San Francisco with the latest morning. Thats right because im here on union street in San Francisco in music starting to see a few of the shops here putting up holiday displays in their windows. Its that time of people are usually starting to think about thanksgiving hanukkah christmas. People wanted to get together with friends and family. And a lot of people for that that means packing their bags and flying off somewhere getting on a bus or driving long distances. So today, the big area, many of the bay area Public Health officers got together. A list of rules but they really say theyd rather you just stay home this year. This is at a time of year where people are making travel maybe intending to travel outside of the region to visit family and friends. And just want to make that message really clear that this is not the time to do were to mobile right now to increases in cases and most bases across the United States right now are seeing much more transmission of the virus that were seeing here. Its really important to work to protect those games weve achieved, but for those who do decide to take the risk and take off for the holidays bring countys Public Health officer is one of many around the bay area that are strongly recommending that you self quarantine for 14 days after you come home, if what you do while youre way put you at higher risk for catching coronavirus such as spending time within 6 feet with people outside of those you normally live with well you or Anyone Around you was not wearing a face mask, especially. Indoors or as an alternative. Obtain testing a few days after that we turn 5 to 7 days after the return and if that test is negative and we could be more confident they havent been infected. Or if you travel on planes buses trains Public Transportation or other shared vehicles, if face masks were not worn at all times by both you and the other person in the vehicle. And if youre planning to get together with others during the holidays, there are also recommending that you keep those gatherings safe by holding him outdoors. Keep them small with no more than 3 households. He gathering short meaning no more than 2 hours and keep them stable by not participating in multiple gatherings with many different but its important we dont move from one group like that to another to another over the course of the holidays, were having multiple invitations so taking that group and sticking the backrooms important because it leads to fewer net interactions and less risk of transmission. So basically they want you to pick a holiday pod as it were and stick with them throughout the Holiday Season rather than being a social butterfly this year.

Still ahead soaring numbers on wall street today following covid19 vaccine results and now weve got some good news, stocks surged today catapulting wall street back to record heights this after the encouraging announcement. A potential Coronavirus Vaccine. As the battle for the white house lowly comes to an end markets around the world are also seeing a climb for more as the country moves forward were joined by Morgan Stanley Financial Adviser george nocioni george always a pleasure this is news weve only you know weve all been waiting for especially after seeing the market. Roller coaster over the course of the last few months. Do you think that with the elections now over and this promising news on the vaccine front that the market will stabilize for a bit. Well covid19 is a real story in the market was euphoric this morning is it is hungry for news how were going to stop this virus. Weve been escalating the number of people that have con contracted covid19 the been more deaths. Theres actually fear of closing down parts of the economy things have not gotten better. So this morning when when pfizer came out with their report saying theyre almost a month or tests and its been positive for a lot of people in next week. It goes to the fda if they can start getting some of the vaccines out that would be great, but you know theres only 50,000 or 50 million vaccines. Available and its not just for United States is really for the Global Economy and who negotiates the most and of course theres other companies to that working on the vaccine and so eventually theyll be all a lot of the vaccines out there, but for right now its going to be rather slow and thats why the markets started to trend down towards the end of the trading day. But trending down but high in comparison to what weve been saying right. Yeah, exactly why me that dow finished up about 3 thats good in anybodys book. The s and p was up 1. 7 thats nice. But nasdaq was down 1. 6 and that was interesting because investors evaluated this whole thing and having a vaccine means were not going to be as inclined to be shelter in place and tech has really benefited by sheltering in place buying online we have been going out my more our computer screens. Tech has really benefited by that so that was kind of a correction in the market. Were tech has been overvalued and having a vaccine could actually be a threat for tech Going Forward and being as overvalued as they have been said to check was down nasdaq. But down about 1. 6 but still its on its 52 week high, its still up over 40 . So thats thats pretty darned good after rescuers elections are over biden one were still fighting the pandemic unemployment numbers are still high. President elect joe biden is going to be taking on a lot when he takes office in january. How do you think thats going to kind of pan out for the market. Its a very good the president elect has a lot of headlines ahead of them, i mean fdr did during the depression. In Ronald Reagans term. He handed the Democratic Administration of recession. This happened once in the bush push number one it happened one time bush number 2 it happened twice. And yet bill clinton came in during the recession and brought a specter of cover e obama did the same. This year weve been in a recession and now the by administration is going to its challenges.
