The crowd formed quickly. Cars and trucks and hundreds of people, including Young Children who gathered to watch vehicles perform dangerous stunts. And found themselves shoulder to shoulder with other spectators. Social distancing was hardly being observed in the part of the bay area hit hardest by the coronavirus. Within a half hour, dozens of Police Officers moved in to disperse the gathering. The police chief said today his department would deal with Public Safety issues as they came along but he made it clear officers would not enforce the social distancing health order. Were not going to give away the tactics were ready to do. But we have teams ready to go to disperse crowds if needed to expect Police Officers to go and make arrests based on a Public Safety order is not credible. Its not going to happen. More than once we watched as a crowd gathered waving mexican flags and officers came along and shoed them away. Some revelers say its unfair as they try to celebrate their heritage.

Dr. David of Duke University was involved in the study led by a team out of the Los Alamos National laboratory the mutant form involves the spikes that stick out from the surface of the virus. Thats how it attaches to cremes and gets into cells. If you are all ready infected with covid19, thats the spot where your antibodies would block the virus from infecting you again. But with this mutation, your immune response might not be strong enough. Not only that. The mutation occurs in a piece of the virus called the st ths the protein thats in all of ines right now. Were concerned that the mutation in this new form of the virus will be a problem for the current vaccines. In San Francisco, maria medina, kpix 5. Researchers say at this point theres no evidence the virus is more dangerous, it just appears to be more contagious. San francisco could face a lawsuit over its response to housing the homeless during this pandemic. The examiner is reporting that homeless advocates sent a letter to the mayor demanding the city follow legislation approved by the board of supervisors to move the homeless into 7,000 hotel rooms by the end of april. That letter is considered the first step toward a legal action if the city does not comply. The mayor has said she would not sign legislation without a plan to supervise the hotels. Mean time, San Francisco will speed up the closure of the old jail inside the hall of justice.
