Well when you talk about this curfew really is unclear how the governor stay at home order is going to be enforced in different counties around the state you have a tonight local Law Enforcement are now sharing their plans. A car for his theresa has details now from Castro Valley. Here in Castro Valley, the Alameda County Sheriffs Department is in charge of police in this area and i spoke with the Alameda County sheriff about this new order that goes into effect on saturday. I asked him if people are going to get arrested if they violate the order and he said that its actually very simple. It is all up to us about how this all goes down. Hoping to cap the rapid rise of covid19 cases, residents living in purple tier counties. Well soon have to follow a limited stay at home order between the hours of 10 00pm and 05 00am for some this makes sense i do my best just to try to anything that help its important to do whatever we can others not so much one man who didnt want to go on camera lashed out of the governor calling the order ridiculous want to be friendly to our constituents we will advise him and talked to none. Alameda county sheriff greg ahern says his deputies will play a significant role in enforcing the stay at home order. But he says arresting people miss is the spirit of the order not in the spirit complaints, you know a lot of people may not be aware of these things that you know challenge in areas where we a lot of people dont know why find working many hours a day so theyre not made aware following guidelines and the ups and downs of the covid19 a mitigation plan so we have to make sure they have an opportunity to know. But they could be in violation of law. The sheriff says fielding calls about parties or people behaving badly will not be a priority, but he adds. However people are blatantly. Violating this new limited order. We will take enforcement action. The sheriff says that these are unique times and they call for all of us to do our part. Hopefully without the forced to comply. It is and never before we see a pandemic in the bay area. Have the in the number of and positive covid19 cases that with that and this is definitely a surge. The numbers you know prove the fact the governors following the numbers for the high numbers in the state and also high numbers in again this new limited shelter at home order goes into effect. Saturday at 10 oclock and cast a rally theresa kron 4 news. Were hoping that we dont have to let anyone go. But that might be the grim reality that happens because of this and counties affected by the looming curfew last call is so weve been talking about is going to come a lot earlier for bars and restaurants. As theresa mentioned they are going to be required to close at 10. Pm now as kron fours rob fladeboe reports for us tonight from san jose, some bar owners say theyre being unfairly singled out. Jails and dreams was its model before the pandemic but doing business now is more like a nightmare for the the popular bar and restaurant here in san joses Almaden Valley serving customers outdoors in keeping with health orders. Those cocktails are served until 02 00am but on saturday that comes to an end when a newly imposed curfew will shut down business at 10 00pm. The curfew is well intentioned, but unfair and misguided says owner tony griffis exactly and thats all thats happening. The parties not because the bars to close its just move into private residences. Where theyre having 5000 people are even smaller 20 people were theres no mask regulations and a lot of people dont believe in the mass. And youre getting super spreader is there. The curfew arrives just as many bars and restaurants for offering limited Indoor Dining other bars dreading the curfew or po st. 55 south. One of the al fresco destinations in downtown san jose, 55 cells and ps 2 here on north on that then both offer extensive outdoor seating and Late Night Service and the curfew was going to hurt says conor erik nielsen. Basically what it means that were going to lose an additional 15 to 20 of our revenue. Every week when were already i mean for the year and like 88 close to 90 . And you know were just starting to claw back some of it and then our work and it right back in the wrong direction again not all the businesses impacted by the curfew are open late but most are operating on a tight margin these days many did not receive pandemic relief. The brand of loans invested 15,000 in an outdoor tent furniture and other pandemic related supplies. People could see their hours cut back again, tony griffis believes the curfew is counterproductive if the real culprit here is private gatherings that maybe instead of targeting bars. We target costco safeways and liquor stores. And see if we can cut alcohol sales, there so if people do want to get a drink. They have to come to a controlled environment that is safe for them to actually imbibe. Closing the bar a oclock means last call could come as early as 9. 15 as for enforcing the curfew for their part San Jose Police say theyll be taking an approach similar to what they did. Back during the original shelterinplace order in march in other words they will emphasize education as opposed to immediately citing people for violating e curfew in san jose rob fladeboe kron 4 news. Due to an increasing demand the mass covid19 testing facility at the santa clara fairgrounds is going to be expanded to accommodate 3,000 appointments today, starting next weekend 5,000 by mid december, twice, the current capacity.

In the fight against Covid Vaccine trials are underway here in the bay areas Drug Companies race to seek fda approval. The drug giant pfizer has applied for emergency use authorization for its Covid Vaccine meaning the first doses of the vaccine could be rolled out in a few weeks, yeah and if approved the drug will initially be given to those most at risk Like Health Care workers. Kron fours gayle ong a spoke to a medical supply expert and she joins us now live from santa clara with the win. The general public can get the shot gayle. They can grant there is a light at the end of the tunnel some time in 2021 and by that time, well know how well the vaccine works. The covid19 vaccine race is speeding up as Drug Companies announced progress pfizer and moderna announcing their vaccines are about 95 effective we spoke with samantha a pharmacy solution advisor at which provides hospitals with data to help them solve Health Care Supply chain challenges trip pharmaceutical companies which one is better. I think its too early to really be able to bet on on one vaccine over the other, but what we do know is that the fda very rigorous in their so if they do grant. Emergency use authorization to either it means that in their eyes a benefit far outweighs the risks and that a review the efficacy and safety data pfizer is awaiting emergency approval from the food and Drug Administration if signed off the vaccine could roll out in a few weeks moderna expects to also seek emergency authorization within weeks the drug will be given to those most at risk particularly health care workers. The plan is to phase this out i think with those 2 manufactures theres probably going to be about doses but theyre projecting for the end of nearly a billion next year and the big question when will the public have access to the vaccine for the rest of us likely and 2021. Those that are perhaps lower risk whats great about that is as they continue the Clinical Trials and continue to study other patient populations like perhaps pediatric children populations and things of that nature will have a little bit more information also in 2021. Publics first chance to see how well the evidence really is will come december 10th. Thats when fda scientific advisors will have a Public Meeting in the meantime, how the experts say the best way to protect yourself from covid is wearing a mask.
