And most americans, gayle, are not happy with americas response to this crisis so far. According to the poll, 57 say its going badly. The poll also showed state and local officials are getting higher marks than the president even as governors face some tough decisions. Mark strassmann is in atlanta. Mark, with georgia set to reopen partially tomorrow, whats the feeling there . A little mixed, anthony. And theres also some very loud critics of the decision. In any state, of course, its up to the governor when the state will reopen, and any decision is bound to be criticized. Here in georgia, the republican governor was secondguessed by the republican president. I happen to disagree with him. Reporter President Trump minced no words about georgias plan to reopen part of its economy tomorrow. Would i do that . No. Id keep them a little longer. I want to protect peoples lives, but im going to let him make his decision. But i told him, i totally disagree. Reporter Governor Brian Kemp will push forward with his states reopening. Some businesses have the green light if they obey social distancing policies. Although i know one has the need to leapfrog over things, dont do that. Do it in a measured way. Reporter georgia fails to meet suggested federal guidelines for lifting restrictions. Primarily a 14day downward trajectory of new positive cases. Florida doesnt either. But some of their gulf coast beaches will also reopen as early as friday. We will do this safely, responsibly and based on the data in our state. Reporter oklahoma also falls short of the suggested federal standards. But the states governor announced businesses like hair salons and spas can open tomorrow. We need the facts on the ground to drive a lot of our decisionmaking. Reporter massachusetts has seen a worrying increase in covid cases. Their businesses are staying closed. In iowa, tyson foods suspended operations at a pork plant indefinitely. More than 180 covid infections were linked to the facility. We need to get a handle on how many people are infected. We need to get more testing here. Thats critically important. Reporter on wednesday, wisconsin also saw its largest daily jump in positive cases since the pandemic began. Theyre possibly tied to a cluster of infections at this green bay meat packing plant. Nearly 150 people have got sick there. Until the medical Community Tells us its safe, its just reckless and irresponsible to go back to business as usual. Reporter wisconsin Covid SurvivorLeah Bloomberg spent nine days in a coma on a ventilator. Shes still Building Back her strength and worries some states are reopening their economies prematurely. If you open up and somebody is asymptomatic, they dont know theyre a carrier. And it will just spread like wildfire. Reporter after the president s criticism, georgias governor tweetsd his defense saying he relied on the guidance of public state health officials. It also includes atlantas mayor and hundreds of local Business Owners even though theyre losing money every day. Their essential position is this too soon, too risky. Tony . No easy choice here. Mark, thank you. No easy choice until we get a vaccine. The doctor who was leading government efforts to find a Coronavirus Vaccine says he lost his position for contradicting the president. Dr. Rick bright is his name. He was removed for resisting a push toward unproven treatmented touted by the president. At the latest White House Briefing there was a public display of unity after tensions between the president and his medical team. Weijia jiang reports now from the white house. It was totally misquoted in the media. A statement about the fall season and the virus. Totally misquoted. Reporter President Trump began wednesdays press briefing asking the director of the cdc, dr. Robert redfield, to explain comments he made in an interview to the washington post. I didnt say that this was going to be worse. I said it was going to be more complicate or more difficult. Reporter redfield was quoted in the newspaper saying that a second wave could be more difficult because it may coincide with the flu. And he eventually said it was the headline he took issue with, not the article. Im accurately quoted in the washington post. As difficult. Reporter the president had a much more optimistic view for the fall. It may not come back at all. Well be watching for it, but its also possible it doesnt come back at all. Reporter moments later, dr. Anthony fauci directly contradicted that claim. We will have coronavirus in the fall. I am convinced of that. Reporter fauci is one of the few Health Experts within the administration who has publicly disagreed with mr. Trump. On wednesday, a highranking scientist said he was reassigned to another role because he resisted the white houses efforts to push chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine as treatments for the virus. I never heard of him. When did this happen . Reporter Richard Bright was the director of the federal agency in charge of developing drugs to fight coronavirus. And in a statement, bright said the Trump Administration pressured me and other conscientious scientists to Fund Companies with political connections as well as efforts that lack scientific merit. This guy says he was pushed out of a job. Maybe he was. Maybe he wasnt. Youll have to hear the other side. I dont know who he is. That was weijia jiang reporting for us. A health and Human Services spokesperson said it was dr. Bright who recently requested the emergency use of chloroquine. Anthony . Thanks, tony. A new jobless claims report out this morning shows why some governors are anxious to reopen businesses in their states. Another 4. 4 million americans filed for Unemployment Benefits last week. That raises the number of claims in the past five weeks to more than 26 million, roughly 1 out of every 6 people in the u. S. Workforce. Cbs News Business analyst Jill Schlesinger joins us. The trend line is down, but these are still staggering numbers. Yeah, theyre just awful as a matter of fact. You think about 26 million. That essentially erases every job gain since 2009. Now were hopeful that many of these people come back into the workforce when things are safe. But its also important to note that those who are already receiving Unemployment Benefits, this is called continuing claims, that number is at 16 million. To put that in perspective, the previous high during the 20082009 recession was 6. 6 million. So again, these numbers are so big, and they happen so quickly. One thing to be wear of, i should be really clear, some economists are worried the push to get back to work could backfire causing the economy to go even lower in a second wave. Thats what we need to worry about. Jill schlesinger, thank you. Gayle . The mayor of las vegas wants to reopen the city for business without a plan of action. In multiple interviews, mayor Carolyn Goodman has suggested letting businesses compete with each other to see who can keep customers the safest. As jamie yuccas reports, the idea is getting major pushback from nevadas governor. We want to welcome them back to the lights on the strip, but thats not today, and its not tomorrow. Reporter nevada governor steve sicilak criticized the comments of the mayor of las vegas who called to reopen sin city. Citing the states relatively low death toll. Hasnt it been because of social distancing that the numbers have been what they are . How do you know until we have a control group . We offer to be a control group. Anybody who knows anything about statistics knows that, for instance, you have a vaccine you are offering the citizens of las vegas to be a control group to see if your theory on social distancing no, no, no, wrong. Absolutely wrong. Dont put words in my mouth. I will not allow the citizens of nevada, our nevadans to be used as a control group, as a placebo. Reporter mayor goodman has yet to outline a plan for reopening, leaving it up to casinos and other business leaders. One las vegas bar owner who converted his tavern into a drivethrough store hopes the governor will at least set a date on when the state might reopen. Even picking a date would give us a glimmer of hope. That will give all small Business Owners a chance to be able to set up their businesses properly. Well all start thinking about what we need to do to social distance and cut our occupancy. Reporter it will ultimately be up to the state gaming control board, not mayor goodman, to reopen the strip. For cbs this morning, im jamie yuccas. Congress is expected to vote today on another bailout bill to help businesses slammed by the pandemic. This comes amid controversy over how government money has been distributed so far. Some Big Companies and wellendowed schools like harvard and yale have returned bailout money under pressure. Nancy cordes reports on those who are still left out. Were down to like 10.

Hes applied for a ppp loan three times but has heard nothing. The most frustrating part is it seems the people who are needing it the most arent getting it. Big business seems like the ones getting it. Reporter nearly 1. 7 million ppp loans have been approved so far by nearly 5,000 lenders. But one survey found that 80 of Small Businesses are either still waiting to receive the money or havent even been told where their application stands. Four major banks are already facing a lawsuit alleging they prioritized bigger customers because those ppp loans yielded bigger fees for the banks. Big corporations like ruths chris and potbelly secured their funds even as smaller businesses waited. Burger chain shake shack returned its money to avert a backlash. The owner of this oakland Catering Company says hes not counting on ever getting the aid. We had to take matters in our own hands. We pivoted our company to a direct to Home Grocery Delivery Service so that we could continue to employ our 40plus employees. Nancy cordes reporting for us. Thank you very much.

Millions of americans are filing for unemployment amid the coronavirus pandemic. Many who have lost their jobs have also lost Health Insurance. In our financial fallout series, weve been reporting on the Economic Impact of the coronavirus. Our consumer investigative correspondent, anna werner, reports on the Health Insurance options for the unemployed. This is the street that is generally filled filled with people and tourists. Reporter the beach in myrtle beach, south carolina, is empty, as is the hotel where donna zweig used to work as food and beverage manager until last month. They very kindly said that, you know, theyre going to have to let me go because they just dont have the business. Theyre going to not be able to open up the restaurant. Reporter she moved here last june from new jersey and took on two jobs. One full time at the hotel, another part time at a university. Shes now lost both. For how long isnt clear.

Reporter Insurance Options for people who are now out of work can be complicated. The Affordable Care act allows people who have lost jobs now to apply through special enrollment to state health care exchanges. Many can get subsidies. Prices and plans vary. Some laidoff workers qualify for cobra, temporary coverage, but it can be expensive. And if their incomes fall low enough, some people will be able to get medicaid. But often only in certain states. Health policy researcher dr. Aaron carroll. Weve done almost nothing to try to ease the path or make it easy. It appears to be incredible plea difficult. Reporter whats worse, he says many states appear overwhelmed. It takes a significant infrastructure to do all of the checking and signing people up and checking to see if they qualify for subsidies and during all of that. Its not clear that right now in april a lot of the exchanges, especially at the statebased level and federal level, staffed up and prepared to do that. To me, thats outrageous. In a country as rich as ours. Reporter senator mark warner and other democrats are now proposing a bill to reopen enrollment for the Affordable Care act and expand medicaid in states where it hasnt yet happened so people dont put off getting care. Somebody god forbid who may be coming down with signs of the virus should not be afraid of going to the doctor because they cant afford to pay.

Its actually like 1,000piece jigsaw puzzle that doesnt have borders. Reporter commissioner gary bettman is trying to steer his sport through the landscape. If we can play in a small window without fans, well be prepared to do that. If we need to go to centralized locations with no fans and modified the schedule, well will do that.

Reporter bettman and fellow commissioners from team and individual sports have had ongoing discussion with President Trump about an inevitable return. State away score reporter pro sports bike hockey, basketball, and golf had their seasons paused by the pandemic, while others like baseball have yet to start. Bettman says for all sports, health and testing are the top priorities. One getting the number of tests you need to be comfortable that youre doing the right things and coming together, and two, we dont want to be in a situation where were depriving the medical community of the tests that they may need to deal with people who are ill. The biggest question is i guess if were going to have a season. Reporter 13year nfl veteran Calais Campbell is a member of the Nfl Players Association executive committee. What is your biggest concern about the idea of sports Going Forward in the world that were in now . I think the biggest concern is really just the fan involvement. Reporter he also says health is a concern for players. Two in the nfl have tested positive, anding his close friend vonn miller. Does it hit closer to home when you see guys like yourself, healthy, pro athletes catching the virus, as well . Its pretty scary. That goes back to going back to work. These guys, we can all be sick and not know it. You know, some of us, we might not test and thats pretty scary. Reporter but while every sport is different, campbell believes no matter how each comes back [ cheers ] with fans or without, its the return that matters most. Sports brings happiness. You know, thats one of the best things about sports. It gives you something to believe in. Gives you a reason it hope. Everybody has a team they want to hope wins the game or goes and wins the championship. Thats what makes sports special. You know, i think sports will be beneficial for people right now going through tough times. You know, just bringing back something somebody to root for. Reporter to get the pro sports back, leagues are considering everything from neutral sites to limited sites and, of course, no fans. As for return dates, with major league baseball, nothing concrete net. The nba and nhl say they can play well into summer to finish the regular season which gives it the priority. The nfl has some time, and the pga tour is targeting a june return without fans. But they do say that that is contingent again on having all the testing necessary which would mean for the players, the caddies and all the support personnel, as well. So important to get it right but so important to get it back. I miss sports as much as everybo everybody. Yeah. Thank you so much.

Also youll remember this tiger that tested positive for the coronavirus at the bronx zoo here in new york city. Now the zoo says four more tigers and three lions have been diagnosed. Officials say the animals likely got sick from an infected employee, tony. Very interesting stuff. We should point out that experts dont think that the animals are transferring the virus back to people.

Well show you why the danger isnt over. Breakthrough discovery. An emergency room doctor tells gayle about what could be a lifesaving revelation about coronavirus treatments. And on your feet, first on cbs this morning, imploGloria Estefan will talk about rewriting one of her biggest hits with a new message. Love gloria. First, heres todays eye opener at 8 00. An overwhelming majority, 70 say, that the top priority should be slowing the spread. North americans are not happy with the countrys response to the crisis. 57 say its going badly. The decision about when to reopen is up to the governor and any decision is bound to be criticized by someone. The doctor who was leading the governments efforts to find a vaccine said he lost his position for contradicting the president. The mayor of las vegas wants to reopen the city for business without a plan of action, it seems. Anybody who knows anything about statistics knows that, for instance youre offering the citizens of las vegas to be a control group to see if your theory on social distancing while humans stay inside, the worlds cities are reclaimed.

Like many of you as you see, were following the rules and the guidelines to stay at home as much as possible. Because we know it definitely slows the spread and makes a difference. Anthony . Well get to the coronavirus pandemic in just a moment. First, a tornado outbreak in the Southern Plains has killed at least six people. Two of them died last night when a around the tore through oklahoma near the texas border. Three more people were killed in polk county, texas north of houston. There were scenes of devastation like this. Another death is reported in louisiana overnight. Some 29 million americans could see Severe Weather later today from louisiana to north carolina. Were hoping for the best there. Moving back to the coronavirus. Members of the White House Coronavirus task force are raising concerns about the rapid reopening of businesses in some parts of america. Dr. Anthony fauci is warning state officials if society reopens too quickly the virus could rebound. He urged Governor Brian Kemp to proceed with caution. President trump who has mostly supported states reopening soon also said he, quote, strongly disagrees with kemps decision to bring back some businesses tomorrow. But the president stopped short of saying he would intervene. A New Hampshire emergency room doctor with three decades of experience is sharing what he learned about treating coronavirus patients with potentially dangerous cases of pneumonia. In an op ed, the doctor described his ten days volunteering last month at a hospital. He wrote about a Simple Technology he believes could save lives. We spoke with the doctor who told me he was surprised by what he saw in the er. People were sick for days and only came in with shortness of pretty, like the day they presented. And they would arrive with oxygen levels that basically were incredible to us. I mean, almost unimaginable how people could be awake and alert and have oxygen levels that are half normal. You know, normally we are 94 to 100 on these devices that measure how much oxygen we have in our blood. People were showing up with oxygen levels of 50 . Now, this matches the level of oxygen that weve measured on the summit of mt. Everest. And its amazing to me that patients could be sick for days, getting sicker, not realizing that so they have these very low oxygen levels, but they had no sensation of i cant breathe . Is that the point youre making . Exactly. You were surprised some of them were still talking on cell phones. Why is that significant . Whats amazing to me with this disease is peoples brains are working fine. Their oxygen levels have gone down to scary low levels, but it has happened slow enough that their body has accommodated it. So they are not like every other patient we see with serious lung disease. What im saying is this disease kills by silent hypoxia, and patients should understand that shortness of breath is a late sign. Hypoxia is what exactly . Low oxygen. And the reason why its so important to get this Early Warning is because it could avoid you being on a ventilator, and having to be incubated. Right . Absolutely. So, you know, we think this ma moan in a basically has two phases. This silent hypoxia period where the oxygen is drifting down. But you feel okay. And the second part of this disease, the part of this disease that kills, is when all of a sudden your lungs get stiff, Carbon Dioxide finally starts to build up. You begin to feel short of breath, and those patients are the patients who are presenting with covid pneumonia. By then, in some cases its too late. By the time you go to the hospital and you cant breathe, its often a dire situation. Yeah, but let me reassure people. The Lessons Learned in new york are that we dont have to put in breathing tubes even in most of the people who show up with advanced covid pneumonia. We dont . No. They did a study of 50 patients. What we learned is that even people who showed up with significant covid pneumonia, we could keep off of ventilators. Three out of four of them. 75 of patients didnt need ventilators but they needed oxygen. They needed to do what we call positioning maneuvers. We put them in different positions to them open their lungs. How do you check your oxygen levels . The germans have the lowest death rates in europe. Every patient who has covid, they visit every day, and they check their oxygen and check their vital signs. And so what im saying to you is if youre having symptoms of viral illness. If youre known to have covid, you should check your oxygen. If you dont have a device, increased breathing may be a sign of that, but also just feeling worse. Most people listening to you will now think i need to get a device. Can you explain exactly what it is and how it works . Basically you just turn this little button on, and you put it on your finger, and within about ten seconds or so, it displays your heart rate and your oxygen level. I think that oximters for the next 12 or 20 24 months, the public should think of it like a thermometer. Its a tool they can have at their home, that they can check, and that they can call up their doctor and say hey, my pulse oximeter is reading consistently at this number. Do i need to be concerned . Every day were learning something new about this covid19, and it seems to be such a moving target, always chac changing. What im telling you is hopeful. What were learning about this disease is that it attacks primarily through one pathway and thats the lungs. We know when it is going to attack. It is going to attack between 5 to 10 days after infection. And we know we have a way to detect it earlier. And that way is by close monitoring of pulse oximetry. We can move the treatment curve earlier and do much better for patients. Oh, the thing about dr. Levitan, i learned so much talking to him. Hes not trying to be an alarmist. This is offering hope. When he explained it in great detail, i see what hes saying. He believes many people are put on ventilators that dont need to if doctors had given them the oxygen they needed. I thought that was fascinating, and oxi zbmeters are not expens. You can get them at the drugstore. Interesting stuff. This is a new virus. Were a complex organizatism, be need oxygen and air. And i love that simple fix. And oximeter. Ill goggle that later. Eye opening interview. You should have seen me. I got off the interview with him and went right to the interview. Hes not saying thats always a problem, but thats something we should look at more carefully. Moving on, every friday were answering your questions about the coronavirus. So this week well discuss caring for older relatives in Nursing Homes or who are living with you. If theres something you would like to ask, send us an email at coronavirus cbs. Com.

Toyota like almost everything in our lives, our sleep and dreams are being affected by the coronavirus. In a harvard survey, more than 2,000 people described 5,000 covidrelated dreams in the past month. They include nightmares about getting the virus and anxiety dreams about forgetting to wear masks outside. Dr. Carol ash is a sleep specialist and chief medical officer at Rwj Barnabas Health in new jersey. Good morning, dr. Ash. I know so many people who have been telling me theyve had strange dreams recently. Including myself. Ive had a couple of really surreal ones. The kind where you go, what was that . So what is going on in our heads . Well, anthony, dreams are a physiologic signal, and theyre normal. We have them all the time. Sometimes we dont know we are having them. Its your body and your brain processing the events and experiences of the day. Its for emotional processing, and it helps us prepare for future events. Is it basically healthy to have these dreams, as disturbing as some may be . Well, they are healthy. I mean, you can have dreams along a spectrum. When you have these dreams at night, again for that emotional processing, it helps to regulate your emotions during the day. It down regulates those anxious feelings. And studies have shown that when you dont sleep well at night, your anxiety is increased by 30 . So good sleep and dreams, they a normal, healthy process. Unfortunately, with all the things were dealing with with this coronavirus, were all going through collective trauma. So were seeing more and more of these vivid dreams, nightmares. Its not uncommon to have sleep disruption and nightmares during trauma. But what also is happening, anthony, is some of us because were not working, our schedules are disrupted, and were sleeping in. Were actually getting more sleep. And you have more dreams right before you awaken in the morning. So most of us are actually experiencing dreams for the first time. So were finding our dreams are more vivid because we just havent had the opportunity to really get good quality sleep. What kind of dreams are you hearing about from your patients . Theres a whole spectrum, anthony. We have people that are talking about virtual dreams where theyre literally dreaming about the virus all the way to metaphors, people feeling like theyre running away or theyre dreaming about people touching them, swarms of bugs. And unfortunately, obviously we have those Health Care Providers on the front lines that are experiencing real trauma. You know, its hard to be dealing with this coronavirus and doing what we do. And some of those folks are experiencing nightmares and having some real difficulties. Were also in this period of social isolation that most of us have not experienced. Is that affecting how we sleep . Well, this is really an interesting thing. Obviously the social distancing, it is critically important. We all need to stick to that, and were seeing wflg outcomes because wonderful outcomes because of it. Social isolation, it is a perceived sense of loss for many of us. You know, the daily routines, our interactions with folks, it defines a sense of self. So theres this perceived loss of sense of self. Its increasing anxiety. And anxiety and stress will disrupt your sleep at night. And heres the interesting part, anthony when you disrupt your sleep at night, it activates the part of the brain for protection. So you have a greater sense that your space is being violated, so you really dont even want to be around people. So it magnifies that sense of isolation and loss. So its not as bad as we think. Were going to get through this, stick to the social distancing, and we really can cope. Its the way the brain works thats giving us that perceived, additional sense of loss and isolation. All right. Dr. Carol ash, thank you so much for being with us this morning. Gloria estefan is using her music to spread an Important Message about the coronavirus. First on cbs this morning, shell tell us how her lyrics ended up flashing on the miami skyline. Youre watching cbs this morning. Why choose invisalign over other aligners .

Northbound 101 out of san jose, we are getting reports of a trouble spot with at least one lane lock. The expressway is an area where caltrans crews are working. If you are an essential worker, you will run into a bit of a snag as you had through there. No word yet if any injuries are involved but apparently a vehicle veered off to the right shoulder and into the bushes there off to the side. Apparently a cement mixer truck had blown out a tire. So two lanes are blocked. The two left lanes are closed. Northbound side, that stretches over to fair oaks. You have caltrans crews on scene. As far as delays go, not seeing a ton of them is so that is good news. Where we are seeing a few slower speeds is eastbound 4 as you approach that 680 connector. For ongoing caltrans work and other than that my things are clear as you work your way along 880. A pretty view with our Treasure Island camera. Mostly sunny skies, blue skies out there looking towards downtown San Francisco and our temperatures are running in the 50s and 60s as we start off our day.

The final episode of showtimes hit series homeland will air this sunday, single tear from me. Actor Mandy Patinkin has played cia agentturnednational security adviser Saul Berenson for nearly a decade. In this clip from the Series Finale, saul confronts his protege, Carrie Mathison, about her recent behavior. She is played by the great actress claire danes. Starting with why you havent checked in on franny since youve been back. Saul, im going to, of course i am. Ive been busy. Too busy to see your own daughter . I was waiting until the weekend. Because you dont want to say goodbye all over again. Truth is, youre not planning on staying in the country for as long, are you . Which begs the question, why come back at all . I came back to try and stop a war. Stop a war . How you plan to do that, stop a war . Any way i can. Showtime is a division of viacom cbs, and Mandy Patinkin joins us now from his home in upstate new york. Good morning to you, mandy. I want the viewers to know youre also a prop stylist. Before you went on the air you said, want me to put some tape on that window and tape it up for you . We thank you that youre so you notice those kind of things. I thought that was nice. Want me to get in duct tape and tape it up . Lets talk about go ahead no, i just i had plenty of gaffers tape where i go. Plenty of gaffers tape wherever i go. Yeah. Duct tape will solve anything. Lets talk about the Series Finale. Number one, i know youre not going to tell us anything about that so im not going to ask you that. I will ask you this are you pleased with how the series wrapped up . Because monday morning, there will be a lot of quarterbacking about they should have done that, why did they do that, what happened to her, what happened to him. Are you pleased with how the series is wrapping up after eight seasons . Yeah. I was very pleased. I thought that alex and the team came up with a great ending. And i dont think people will be disappointed. I wasnt disappointed. I thought it stayed true to what the cia was all about, what the origins of the show was all about, and what the intelligence communitys purpose is. And what has been a very trying time for this country, particularly in the past three years where intelligence has been at war with the administration. Uhhuh. And mandy, were you ready when we talked to claire danes when she was here, we were back in the studio, its clear that the two of you have a very special bond. Im wondering, were you ready, and what your final scene was like. I would think that would have been tough. Yeah. It was very tough. I wasnt ready for it at all. As you will see this coming sunday night, its some of the most intense stuff we have ever been engaged in. And all of a sudden, we finished the scene, and a voice came out of the room saying, ladies and gentlemen, that was the last shot between Carrie Mathison and Saul Berenson of homeland. And it was like a shocking moment. And then we found each others eyes, and we fell into each others arms, and we began to feel our bodies shake because we were both mutually weeping. And holding on to each other for dear life. And just dealing with we started this in 2010. So it was virtually ten years of our lives. And trying to grapple with what that means at one minute a switch is pulled or flicked, and its over. Wow. Yeah, i can only imagine. Mandy, im curious, youve said Something Interesting about your character, Saul Berenson, you said a lot of interesting things. One thing in particular stuck out. Could be a spinoff episode here. You say he made you a better husband and a better man. Saul berenson, marriage counselor, better man camp. How did he do that . It was just good luck on a lot of levels. The writers wrote a character who was very quiet and calm, different from my own personal nature. He was a better listener than i ever was. He was a kinder, gentler human being than i was. And a more empathic human being than i was. Although i feel i had some of those qualities and a combination of that situation and being with claire and our writers and time, gave my wife and my two children a husband that was a little bit more like saul than like mandy. And they liked that. And so he will go with me wherever i go for rest of my life, that better listener, quiet, more empathic human being. Who at times loses it and has to make some pretty brutal decisions and choices, but thats how life is for most of us. Mandy, thats a beautiful sentiment. Thank you very much. Thank you for giving us so many hours with the show. So many hours away from ourselves. We could use that from time to time and away from the world as it is. All right. Thank you very much. Were nothing were nothing thank you, and thank most. Okay, sorry. Weve got those delays, mandy. Sorry about that. The Series Finale of homeland airs sunday night on showtime. And you can hear more of cbs this morning including extended interviews and original content on our podcast. Coming up next, Gloria Estefan is using one of her most popular songs to help fight the coronavirus. And she will join us first on cbs this morning to explain. Well be right back. O0 c1 seventime grammy award winner, Gloria Estefan, is using her music to spread an urgent message about staying home. Put on your mask when you go out in public put on your mask help save the world from covid very nice, the singer songwriter rewrote the lyrics of her 1989 hit, you know it get on your feet. Shes saying get on your mask. I like it. The new lyrics light up the miami skyline every night at 10 00 when the curfew states. Theyre displayed on the paramount world center. First on cbs this morning, Gloria Estefan joins us from her lovely home in miami beach. There she is. Hello, lovely Gloria Estefan. Good to see you. Its good to see you, too, in a way, gayle. It really is a pleasure for me to be with you. And thank you so much for all that you guys are doing to keep us all informed. Yeah. We wouldnt want to be any other place. I promise you that. This is the thing normally we go to the doctors for help, but this time a doctor came to you for help. What did he or she say to you . Its dr. Eileen mart whoa has been my friend since we were 14. We went to high school together. She was frustrated that the message was not getting out that we all, any time in public or in a Grocery Store or any of the places that are essential that are the places were allowed to go, that we protect the world from us. Since we dont know whos spreading it, even asymptomatic people maybe, that it would just be far safer if we all wore masks. She said, glo, do it in your funny way. Something thats going to stay with people. She knows ive done parodies of my songs, you know, forever. And then after that, another friend sent me these masks that she was making that were really, you know, fashionable and beautiful. And i go, this is the universe telling me ive got to do something. That day i wrote a parody to get on your feet. I figured when people hear the song, theyre going to get the empowerment message that was behind it and subconsciously theyll get the positivity. At the same time, remind them to put on a mask whenever theyre in public. And not for nothing, gloria, its catchy, too. Youve seen the numbers. You know the communities of color are being greatly affected by this disease. You know, its been devastating to the black and hispanic community. I would imagine thats always another message you want to hit, to get people to pay attention. This is serious stuff. It is very serious. And you know whos listening the best are children. You know, my grandson was right on it. He understands that ive seen him mature so much through this entire process because theyre fcing is something that is unprecedented and scary. If its scary for us, imagine our own children. So i wanted to do something that was kid friendly, that was going to stick with them. And thats why since there were different images on the masks, i used those to kind of bring different characters to life. And one of my first songs was called dr. Beat, i have the doctor coat because im the family doctor, everybody calls me. And humor, you know, has helped me through the toughest times in my life. I wanted to share that with people through this song. Gloria, one of your restaurants, gloria, is delivery free meals to Health Care Workers down there. How did you make that happen . And what exactly are they doing . Well, you know, we tried for a while to do the takeout, we wanted to keep as many employees as possible. As a matter of fact, our servers and bartenders, we were able there was a National Chain of pharmacies that had bought a spanish pharmacy chain that were looking for employees. They knew that our people had background checks and were already voted. They thought vetted. They thought it was a great changeover to bring them on. We wanted to keep our chefs and our people ready to jump in whenever this crisis is over. In the meantime, we thought what can we do to help those First Responders, the people that are out there really taking, you know, a chance for all of us, that are keeping life going, that are making life easier for everybody at home. And we thought, you know, what better way than to donate good meals for them to at least have a solid meal from us daily. Weve been doing this seven days a week, were going to do it for 30 days. And well continue it if if need be. We had donations from our good friends iris and michael smith, gary nader, art gallery, and the milton family. And together with them, we donated our places and services, kitchen staff, and were preparing meals for people that are on the front lines every day. Gloria, were running out of time, but i wanted to know how you and emilio are doing. I know youre hunkered down together, your husband, of course. Whats giving you guys hope . You know what, were hunkered down. Emilio has two hunker down areas the studio which he goes to every day, the same core group, everybodys healthy. Thats the only thing that matters. Havent hugged my kids or grandson for close to two months now because we were hunkered down in miami beach before anybody else. But we cant complain. You know, were keeping positive. Yesterday my son actually inspired me with a conversation we were having to write a song. So ive written that. Im going to be reading from my noel books and putting stuff out for fans on social media. Try to stay connected. Yes. Some Companies Still have hr stuck between employees and their data. Entering data. Changing data. More and more sensitive, personal data. And it doesnt just drag hr down. It drags the entire business down with inefficiency, errors and waste. Its ridiculous. So ridiculous. With paycom, employees enter and manage their own data in a single, easy to use software. Visit paycom. Com, and schedule your demo today. That could mean an increase byin energy bills. You can save by setting your heat to 68 or lower. Unplugging and turning off devices when not in use. Or just letting the sun light your home. Stay well and keep it golden. This is a kpix 5 morning update. Good morning. It is age 55. Things are easing up just a bit. We had a few hotspots this morning due to caltrans roadwork. Highway 4 has been busy both directions. That 246 80 area, things have eased up nicely. If you are running out the door, you should have some easy time on the freeways for the most part. We do have some brake lights on the southbound 101 as you head into san rafael. We see this pattern pretty much every day. There is some a roadwork around that area. On the northbound side, not too bad. Likely will be gone by the time you guys get on the road this morning. State route 121 it near arnold, reports of a car fire. One lane is still closed. Eastbound four as you head towards that 680 connector. That is traffic. Here is mary. You can see beautiful blue skies on our Treasure Island camera. You can see our temperatures as we start off our day. We are in the 50s and 60s and we will only watch our temperatures climb as we had through our afternoon. Warmer compared to yesterday. Looking at a 612 degrees above average specifically in San Francisco, upper 60s, upper 70s for san jose and low 80s for concord. It gets even warmer for your friday, slightly cooler for the weekend but still mild to warm and above average. Daytime highs of warming up step by step, were going to figure this out. Were gonna find a way through this. Were working really, really hard in hospitals, our nurses, our techs, all the docs. Its about staggering when people get sick so that the hospitals can cope. Were gonna go through an awful lot of these. All across puget sound, people have been stepping up and donating personal protective equipment. We stay at work. For you. You stay at home for us. Just know were all with you. Thank you, thank you so much. Thank you doctors nurses. Wayne tada tiffany whoo jonathan more deals . wayne tiffany, whats behind curtain number one .
