Weekend. Today is the last warm day. Look at these the temperature trend in concord. 49 to start and 70 degrees by noon. And another warm day but we cool down this weekend. More on that coming up. Mike is seeing a problem for drivers over highway. That is right. Not across the bay, but it is between 280 and Half Moon Bay. Problem is i believe we have Traffic Control in one lane in either direction at a time just between the area are where you park the bikes and can yada road and this is a problem for the garbage truck and that part of the morning commute. Back to you. Thanks, mike. Well now to the new developments in the coronavirus outbreak. This is a live look at Uc Davis Medical Center in sacramento. This is where a Solano County woman is in the hospital as the number of cases pops overnight in self nations including the United Kingdom and france and iran. As for the Solano County case, theyre trying to figure out how she became infected. She was not traveling to china or had contact with anyone there and the cdc recently transferred an infected patient to a San Mateo County hospital for treatment. As of this morning there are now 83,000 cases of the virus worldwide and 2,800 people have died and the number are deaths are rising and there are now 60 confirmed cases in the united states. Nbc bay area is dead waited to bringing you every development on the story. We have more Live Team Coverage including a breakdown of the signs and symptoms to look out for. But first lets check in with sarah dallof with a closer look at our Solano County case Getting National attention. Yeah, that is correct marcus and laura. You just mentioned the unique case in the bay area. Well Health Officials and the white house are keeping a very close eye on how that unfolds. Meanwhile the Trump Administration is striking back against c to combat the spread the mysterious and deadly illness but the president saying that his response was been incredible. As Congress Continues to work to provide emergency funding to prepare and rush a vaccine, that case in california is getting special attention from lawmakers as the woman wanted tested for coronavirus for several days as she didnt fit federal criteria. I want to though why it is taking so long to test folks. I would like to know what the exerts believe they need and make sure we fund that. Reporter and Officials Say a possible vaccine is at minimum a year away. Lawmakers want to make sure that when it comes out, it is affordable for all americans. Perhaps dipping into that emergency funding to make it so. Laura and marcus. Closely following that one. Thank you, sarah. With developments in the outbreak seemingly changing by the hour. And so muchthe information you kris sanchez is in our all r been getting. Everywhere you go, people are asking questions about this. So people are aware of of the coronavirus and the fact that the cdc is warning we should anticipate more cases here, a lot of people are asking questions. One of the big ones, what is it anyway . Coronavirus is not new. If you remember sars, that also was a coronavirus. But Novel Coronavirus known by the name covid19 is a new version of the virus. It is spread when a sick person coughs or sneezes but cant rule out it is spread through fecal contamination like the coronavirus sars was spread as well. So when do you see a doctor . If you have cold and symptoms, runny nose, cough and fever and you travel to a coronavirus hot spot or been in contact with someone who has also traveled it might be time to see a doctor but dont expect to get tested on the spot with strep or flu. They do that quick rapid test and there isnt one for had a. This is a look inside of the richmond lab one of only 16 processing tests for the virus for all of california. So anybody in california tested for coronavirus, this is one of the places where theyre going to go. Positive tests have to be confirmed by the cdc. But if you are headed to the doctor because you are concerned and you meet those criteria call ahead both so that you could describe your symptoms to your provider and they could limit you and the exposure that you might have to other people. So the prevent tips are worth repeating. Those havent changed. The cdc said wash your hands, but really scrub with soap and water for 20 seconds. That is singing happy birthday two times to sing to yourself or whoever you want and when you cant do that use Hand Sanitizer. The cdc does not recommend masks for Healthy People and it is only if you are sick and trying to keep your germs from going anywhere else for a respiratory virus. And a lot of questions. When you pick up at Little League all people want to talk about right now. That and the markets which are affected by it as well. So you have advise people on Hand Sanitizer and the 401 k . We try to figure out the answers. So at 5 30, why some people get so sick, right, some people just die, right, and then where we are in terms of breakthroughs and vaccines. Sounds good. Well see you in half an hour. We have a lot of information about what is going on with with the coronavirus online. We put together a map that shows you the global outbreak. Just head over to nbcbayarea. Com. Now to decision 2020. President trump is campaigning in South Carolina today. Ahead of tomorrows primary. The president will speak at a rally in north charleston. On the democratic side, joe biden the top choice according to a new Monmouth University poll. Hes followed by Bernie Sanders with california Democrat Tom Steyer coming in third. A tragic story in contra costa county, a young boy died after simply trying to cross the street. Today in the bay bob redell is live at the scene in antioch. And, bob, what are police saying about it this one . Reporter marcus, the boy was just 11 years old. He was trying to cross lone tree way behind me not far from deer valley high in antioch when he was hit and killed by this white sports car you could see on your screen. We believe its with a corvette. This happened before 7 00 last night which means it was dark or close to dark out. Visibility probability wasnt the best and the boy unfortunately was not using a crosswalk when he tried to cross all six lanes of traffic. Police say the driver of the car suffered minor injuries but is going to be okay. That driver is cooperating. Police do not believe drugs or alcohol played a role in this cash. Live in antioch, bob redell, today in the bay. Bob, thanks so much for that update with what is going on. Such a tragic story. Thank you. The back and forth continues to simmer in oakland in the saver imagine of the firing of police chief anne kirkpatrick. The first meeting since voting to fire kirkpatrick and other Department Staff members gave them an earful and other people expressed support. All civilians argued they made the right decision and saying she was fired for not waiving a towing fee for one of the commissioners. The idea that that something so petty would drive all supervisors and the mayor to reach the same conclusion is simply ridiculous. Some within the department are asking what kind of message it will send to potential replacement candidates. Developing now, the search is on for thieves in San Francisco. It is hard to watch video showing them targeting a woman walking near the stockton tunnel. A 55yearold woman didnt give her purse up but the man there was dragging her along the ground. While another gets out to the car to help with the robbery. Some People Living in china town are worried about being targeted. That is terrible. Everything is a set up and waiting like bait. The woman tells us shes okay but has bruised all over her body. Well making it in the bay now an update on the north bay homeless crisis. Sonoma county received trailers to help house the homeless. They were used to house victims of the 2018 deadly campfire in chico. Next month supervisors say they plan to assess how much the trailers are helping and if more help is needed.

Workers have been in odds over months for a contract gone on strike once but the union said the deal is now in place pending a vote to ratify. 5 10 now. Want to check in with kari hall. Weve been talking about the Drought Conditions and concerns and as they are spreading. Yesterdays sierra snow pack survey shows a big drop from january. We have one more day left in february. No rain means new record in place for San Francisco. Yeah, that and the fact that the sierra snow pack was very disappointing after that survey yesterday. Theyre finding that about 46 of the statewide average were getting that amount of snow. So less than half of where we should be. And were seeing new Drought Conditions developing for parts of the bay area now. Including in a moderate drought in parts of solano and contra costa county. How much rain to catch up to normal. Nearly 9 inches in San Francisco. San jose needs 7 inches and we hope for a miracle march but that is very unlikely considering were seeing a dry pattern that may continue into next month.

Were getting a clearer picture this morning about the worker who went on a rampage at a Historic Milwaukee brewery. Police say 51yearold Anthony Farrell opened fire at the molson coors brewery killing five employees, then taking his own life. He worked for years as an electrician. There is no motive but talking very emotionally about the victims. They were powerhouse and machinists and electricians but more importantly they were husbands, they were fathers, and they were friends. The plant is closed for the rest of the week as workers come to grips with what happened. Well we know actress Lori Loughlin will head to trial in october. She and her husband Mossimo Giannulli had a trial date. They want the trial delayed claiming they found new evidence.

Meteorologist kari hall is tracking the forecast. Meteorologist kari hall how is it looking. Looking good. Warm but not as warm as yesterday. A live look outside in san jose, a clear start and temperatures milder. Campbell in the low 50s and our temperatures in the low 70s into the afternoon. Still well above normal.

So a few folks in the cash lane but more volume in the fast track lanes. No metering lights just yet but they may have be turned on in a few minutes. But so far feeding into contra costa looks great. Back to you. Thank you, mike. Well coronavirus cases continue to expand and are now confirmed in nearly 50 nations around the world. So we want to get you up to speed on the new numbers from overnight and the case that is bringing National Attention to the bay area. We have a live look at uc davis in sacramento where doctors are treating a Solano County woman in a case making records because they dont know how she became ill. She hadnt traveled. Theyre trying to retrace her history. And another patient was tracted to a snoem county. More deaths are now being reported outside of china and there are 60 confirmed cased in the united states. School districts across the bay area letting parents know theyre closely monitoring the outbreak. And maybe youve received a notice. Sharon katsuda is live in fairfield where schools are hard sat work trying to respond to the mysterious case now confirmed in their home county. We dont have your micro upon right now so well work on that and check back in a little bit. Sharon. She can hear me. Well clear that up. Well talk about development in the outbreak changing by the hour. And so much mystery surrounding how it spread. We want to sure you have the information you need. And we have answers from our Coronavirus Center this morning. Lets talk about the questions were fielding. Youve people out and about Wearing Masks to clearly people are concerned but the question is when should you really worry. Talk about the symptoms and severity. Coronavirus is a respiratory virus with runny nose, cough, sore throat and fever and in serious cases it could lien to pneumonia and that leads to organ failure and that is how people die. 3 to 5 of patients end up in intensive care. One of the facebook friends asked about the mortality rate. The chinese cdc said that 2. 3 of people with coronavirus die compared to. 05 of people with the flu. So when do you see a doctor . If you have those cold and flu symptoms and you traveled to the coronavirus hot spots or youve been in contact with someone who has, it might be time to see your doctor. But you can expect to get tested right on the spot like when we have strep or the flu. This is a look inside of the richmond lab one of 16 labs processing tests for the virus for all of california. Positive tests then have to be confirmed by the cdc. But if youre heading to the doctor, make sure you call ahead and let them knooure coming. So on breakthroughs. Right there is no vaccine for coronavirus or covid 19. A vaccine will not be available for another year. The reason they could get to the Clinical Trials is because it is an existing therapy for something else. In nebraska a group of patients are participating in a Clinical Trial for an antiviral drug developed to treat ebola and other coronaviruses. The National Institute of health and the university of texas at austin, my alma mater, identified the spike that lets the virus chip away into the cell and that is a forward step in vaccine creation. I mentioned that were taking questions on facebook as well. Another viewer asked if the hospital is required to tell you that theyre treating a coronavirus patient . Ill answer that question coming up 6 00. Lets check back in again with sharon katsuda. We were talking about how concerning it is for those of you with kids out there. Oh, sure. What would happen. Shes out in fairfield talking about what schools are trying to do to prepare. Reporter that is right. The messages are going out to participants throughout the bay area. I received a couple emails from the School District that my children go to. And basically especially in this community, theyre very concerned because the woman in Solano County, they dont know how she got the virus. The School District in fairfield is making sure every desk and classroom is wiped down and disinfected in the hopes of limiting the spread of the coronavirus. Listen to the voice mail from the district to the parents. We understand the coronavirus is causing concern for many parents. Yeah, because we live close to the air force. It is like 15 minutes away from here. Reporter a district spokesperson said there is no known direct link with any schools but the north Bay Health Care group confirmed that the coronavirus patient was lying in a hospital bed at the Vaca Valley Hospital for three days before anyone knew she was infected with the virus. The patient may have exposed dozens of hospital staffers and those with the highest risk of exposure are staying at home and monitoring for any coronavirus symptoms. Now some of the emails that have come out to parents suggest they remind children to stay at home if theyre sick, to constantly wash their hands and for adults, make sure youre not shaking hands. People will understand at this point. Live in fairfield, im sharon katsuda, today in the bay. Good advice for all of us. Thank you, sharon. It is 5 36. Switching gears. Super tuesday now just four days away and Democratic Candidates will be stumping across california. Gathering lastminute support before heading to the boles.

Well new details for you on San Francisco long push to open safin sque safe injection sites. A legal victory this week in philadelphia may finally pave the way. That is where a nonprofit won the right to open a safe injection site despite a doj legal challenge. That is prompting the mayor london breed to draft new legislation for San Francisco. Past efforts have been held up by legal challenges. But it is possible that a safe injection site could open in San Francisco by next year. A new housing study saying People Living in Affordable Housing are at risk at losing their homes to try to make it in the bay. The bay area has lost 2,000 rent controlled apartments according to the California Housing Partnership and another 5,000 units are at risk because leases are set to expire. Now back in december San Jose City Council Approved several laws to prevent eviction without reason and make more Affordable Housing in the city. Old trains are not the only reason for the delays you experience on b. A. R. T. Bad behavior is just as big of say problem. According to the chronicle, if you data showing crime, unruly conduct or sick passengers cost 37 of the delays lasting more than five minutes. B. A. R. T. Police say they got 7,000 calls a month. Onethird of delays are kazzed by mechanical problems. This is short of the agency goal of 94 of the time. So if youre misbehaving on b. A. R. T. , theyll pull this train over. Take care of things. Over here, no delays for b. A. R. T. And none reported to me. Roadways look very good. Over on the peninsula, 280, both crashes cleared from the area around canada road and skyline and no problems between Half Moon Bay and 280.

And the president said coronavirus may just disappear. Like a miracle. Those are his words. That is not what is happening in other countries, scott. It is certainly not. Iran not. Italy. China said the numbers are getting better. And the white house is pushing back on news reports that the Coronavirus Team has to clear what it said through the Vice President and we heard that from dr. Anthony fauci. Should he be clearing what he said through the Vice President or should the Vice President be clearing what he says through the nations top scientists . Listen as the Vice President talks to the media. Fauci is off to the left. Our best estimate is the threat to the american people, dr. Fauci, remains low. But the president took the actions out of abundance of caution. But he called it something else. This is something unique and trouble some as weve seen the havoc in china with the number of cases theyve had. This virus has adapted itself extremely well to be transmissionable in humans. The president showed off a list of countries and how well they were prepared for an epidemic and you the wat at the top of the list and that is indeed true.

Im a business person, i dont like have you thousands of people around when you dont need them. We expect the president to speak more on the rally in north carolina.
