[ inaudible ] as i said, protecting Healthcare Workers and First Responders one of the top three priorities at the health department. I dont have the numbers to share in terms of number of Healthcare Workers quarantined. They are at high risk for exposure. We are working with Hospital Systems across the city to prepare for the potential for a substantial portion of the work force to be under isolation or quarantine. One of the key things we are working on is insuring there is adequate protective equipment in keeping with the cdc guidelines to keep workers safe so they can care for the people most vulnerable for this disease. Do we not have enough healthcare wore concernings. We have a robust Healthcare System and everybody is stepping up. That will be posted on the frequently asked questions. What services at city hall are going to continue . Essential services will be continued. Essential City Services will be continued both at city hall and a cross the city. That will be provided, absolutely. Are you short equipment right now . Every local jurisdiction needs more personal protective equipment. I cannot emphasize how important that is. Given the need to protect our Healthcare Work force. We asked at the federal level for more in terms of what is availability. All local jurisdictions that i have talked to and i am aware of are working under a short supply. This is a key gap in our ability to collectively respond to the epidemic. We are working locally, regionally and state level to develop more uptodate guidelines with regard to what is the necessary protective equipment and also to make sure that we have a clear sense of what is available going forward. Personal protective equipment is a vital part of this response, and i want to ensure we are able to keep our Healthcare Workers protected with the best evidence possible so they can do their job. Under the order, take out will continue and coffee take out as long as social distances is maintained under the order that would be permissible. We will post essential activities on the website. Cleans is especially important for all of us during this period of time. Front line workers include the janitors who are keeping us all protected. What is the plan for the [ inaudible ] we have an ad campaign on the radio and tv and print media. Today we are switching all messages as we speak. You will be hearing and seeing and be able to read those as of today. All of that is out. You can either go to sf72. Org and find all of that material ready to print and share. I want to add also there are a lot of nonprofits we partnered with to distribute information in various languages all over the city. That information has already been going out. Thank you. Hand cleaner. What are you doing . Thank you for your question. Greg, it is not just hand sanitizer. Regular soap works just as well. I will let doctor colfax answer the details about supplies. I reinforce what the mayor is saying about soap and washing hands. Hand sanitizer we are working with our supply chain operators to ensure as much is available as possible. We work with what we have and we are trying to get more. We have been in preliminary conversations with a company. I dont have specifics to share. They are working with us and a couple other counties to try to i would emphasize this is pilot intervention at this time. We want to make sure given the national limitations of test Kit Available that those tests are reserved for the people who need the tests the most. If i could give that to you i would. I dont have that timeline that is not established yet. Mayor breed we cant sit back to wait for the federal government to do anything. Unfortunately, they have not been as proactive as they should in recognizing this is a crisis throughout the entire world. As you know, i sent a letter to the Vice President two weeks ago around the lack of support for test kits, around protective equipment, around the very terrible response in dealing with this. Sadly, now is not the time to point fingers. It is the time to come together to provide as many resources as we can locally to protect Public Health and we hope that people will cooperate with us. [ inaudible ] so the Public Health officers for the counties that i listed are all in constant communication and are the ones who put forth this specific directive. They are definitely in touch. I will let doctor colfax talk about what that entails. We as leaders of the city are in Constant Contact along with the Governors Office to provide coordinated responses for the suggestions or the mandates coming down from Public Health officers. There is a coordination that is happening around the region as a result of this particular situation, and we are working together, and we are working directly as well with the Governors Office, who is very supportive in our efforts. I will let doctor colfax talk about the Public Health officers and their coordination and response. Thank you. I think it is key to emphasize how important this Regional Response is. From the data that we are receiving from other countries, we know our regional approach must be taken, particularly with regard for social distancing, to have an optimal impact. Over the weekend the Health Officers from nearby counties came together and shared Data Information what we were doing and made a commitment to working regionally and collaborating and working lock step towards this order. While the order released today is specific to San Francisco, the order reflects the concepts that are being implemented and executed in all six counties, and the timing of the order and effect of the order, the date and time that the order is effective is consistent across the six counties. There will be a press availability with the director of m. T. A. At 3 00 today to provide details on muni and our Transportation System here. We unfortunately cant speak on behalf of bart. [ inaudible ] well, the first thing is if we are practicing the social distance requirement, the likelihood of somebody being stopped is extremely low unless they are doing else. If they are called in as a Disaster Service worker, they would need to have the regular credentials on them. That is explainable. We are taking a very common sense compassionate approach to this. We understand certain things have to happen, we have to have essential services in our city. Our officers will be very thoughtful about that. If social distances is being practiced there is no reason to stop anybody. Mayor breed we said this information is online. We realize that not everyone has access to the internet. 311 is also a tool. I want to reiterate this is not the time to panic. If people have questions, concerns, they can call 311, look at the department of Public Health website for any questions or any other concerns. We are here to provide as much information as we possibly can to help every resident of the city get through this very difficult situation which is something that again we have experienced maybe not in this magnitude but we have had challenges before, and we have become a more resilient city as a result of those challenges. We will emerge stronger and better because of this. Please cooperate with the order. Please continue to work with us to comply so that we can get through this sooner rather than later. Thank you all so much for being here today. Is our United States constitution requires every ten years that america counts every human being in the United States, which is incredibly important for many reasons. Its important for preliminary representation because if Political Representation because if we under count california, we get less representatives in congress. Its important for San Francisco because if we dont have all of the people in our city, if we dont have all of the folks in california, california and San Francisco stand to lose billions of dollars in funding. Its really important to the city of San Francisco that the federal government gets the count right, so weve created count sf to motivate all sf count to motivate all citizens to participate in the census. For the immigrant community, a lot of people arent sure whether they should take part, whether this is something for u. S. Citizens or whether its something for anybody whos in the yUnited States, and it is something for everybody. Census counts the entire population. Weve given out 2 million to over 30 communitybased organizations to help people do the census in the communities where they live and work. Weve also partnered with the Public Libraries here in the city and also the Public Schools to make sure there are informational materials to make sure the folks do the census at those sites, as well, and weve initiated a campaign to motivate the citizens and make sure they participate in census 2020. Because of the language issues that many Chinese Community and families experience, there is a lot of mistrust in the federal government and whether their private information will be kept private and confidential. So its really important that communities like bayviewhunters point participate because in the past, theyve been under counted, so what that means is that funding that should have gone to these communities, it wasnt enough. Were going to help educate people in the tenderloin, the multicultural residents of the tenderloin. You know, any one of our given blocks, theres 35 different languages spoken, so we are the original u. N. Of San Francisco. So its our job is to educate people and be able to familiarize themselves on doing this census. You go online and do the census. Its available in 13 languages, and you dont need anything. Its based on household. You put in your address and answer nine simple questions. How many people are in your household, do you rent, and your information. Your name, your age, your race, your gender. Everybody is 2,000 in funding for our child care, housing, food stamps, and medical care. All of the residents in the city and county of San Francisco need to be counted in census 2020. If youre not counted, then your community is underrepresented and will be underserved. Shop and dine on the 49 promotes local businesses and challenges residents to do shopping and dining within the 49 square miles of San Francisco by supporting local Services Within neighborhood. We help San Francisco remain unique, successful and vibrant. Where will you shop and dine in the 49 . San francisco owes the charm to the unique character of the neighborhood comer hall district. Each corridor has its own personality. Our neighborhoods are the engine of the city. You are putting money and support back to the community you live in and you are helping Small Businesses grow. It is more environmentally friendly. Shopping local is very important. I have had relationships with my local growers for 30 years. By shopping here and supporting us locally, you are also supporting the growers of the flowers, they are fresh and they have a price point that is not imported. It is really good for everybody. Shopping locally is crucial. Without that support, Small Business cant survive, and if we lose Small Business, that diversity goes away, and, you know, it would be a shame to see that become a thing of the past. It is important to dine and shop locally. It allows us to maintain traditions. It makes the neighborhood. I think San Francisco should shop local as much as they can. The retail marketplace is changes. We are trying to have people on the floor who can talk to you and help you with products you are interested in buying, and help you with exploration to try things you have never had before. The fish business, you think it is a piece of fish and fisherman. There are a lot of people working in the fish business, between wholesalers and fishermen and bait and tackle. At the retail end, we about a lot of people and it is good for everybody. Shopping and dining locally is so important to the community because it brings a tighter fabric to the community and allows the Business Owners to thrive in the community. We see more Small Businesses going away. We need to shop locally to keep the Small Business alive in San Francisco. Shop and dine in the 49 is a cool initiative. You can see the banners in the streets around town. It is great. Anything that can showcase and legitimize Small Businesses is a legitimize Small Businesses is a good morning everyone. The meeting will come to order this. Is the march 11, to 20 regular meeting. I am chair of the finance committee i am joined by supervisors walton and mandelman. I would like to thank Samuel Williams and michael from sfgovtv for broadcasting this meeting. Do we have announcements . Please silence cell phones and electronic documents. Submit documents to the clerk. Items today will appear on the march 17th agenda unless otherwise stated due to the deck rarcoronavirus we are asking yoo wash hands and avoid touching high volume surfaces as much as possible. Please call item one and two. Resolution authorizing the department of Public Health to accept 3 million from the Tipping Point community for creation of new Psychiatric Center for two year period beginning january 162020 through january 15, 2020. Two. Resolution authorizing the director of property to lease Real Property located at 11567 valencia street for 404,000 per year for three years with an estimated commencement date of mar1, 2020 to expire on februar. Thank you very much. Supervisor mandelman. Thank you. Colleagues. These two items will allow the department of Public Health to open a 30 bed shelter at 1156 valencia street. It is to extend a 3 million grant to help Fund Creation of the 30 bed Community Hummingbird facility. Two is to enter a lease with Salvation Army for use of 1156 valencia for a term of three years. Soon after i took office in the summer of 2018, i visited the citys first and still only hummingbird place located on the General Hospital campus. It is a 24 hour Behavioral Center with 29 beds serving Homeless People with Mental Illness. With an estimated 4,000 unhoused in San Francisco meeting these suffering from Mental Illness and Substance Abuse it is clear our current 29 hummingbird beds dont come close to meeting the need. We can see every day what happens when we dont have enough places to take unsheltered people. Too many end up in Psychiatric Services or Emergency Rooms or jail. More than half all patients are homeless and between october and december 2019, pes was on diverse upwards of 40 of the time. We also know that far too many people leaving pes are released back to the street to return to the hospital in weeks or hours later. I have been working with the department of Public Health to identify potential sites for one or more hummingbirds in district 8 since my first days in office. I will continue to beat the drum for hummingbird citywide. I live three blocks away on valencia street. I am eager to welcome the first hummingbird to my neighborhood. I want to thank the dent of department of Public Health and mayor breed and prc baker place for helping bring this online. Over the past month, they have worked to hold two Community Meetings providing venue for hundreds of neighbors and Community Members to raise concerns, have questions answered and engage in conversation how the city and neighborhood can Work Together to make it a success for clients abneighbors. I want to thank Community Members who attended and those who emailed or visited my office with feedback and i want to thank Tipping Point for the 3 million grant, Salvation Army for welcoming hummingbird and for all they do to address homelessness and addiction.
