And try to flatten the curve but the state is anticipating a big surge in virus cases next month. Give you a sense of optimism in terms of the curve in california a bending a it is bending, but its also stretch. Yeah, the governor went on to say that because of coronavirus curve is stretching our state is doing a good job of social distancing and thats allowing the state now to buy some time and loan out some of its medical equipment to states that are in more need right now. We have kron fours Ashley Zavala with that story. Slow and steady or 2 words governor newsome used to describe the increase of covid19 conditions in california confirmed cases rose 10 tuesday, while the number of patients in intensive care increased by 4 . Let me give you a sense of optimism in terms of the curve. In california a venti a it is bending, but its also stretching it. The governor noting the bent and stretched curve is allowing the state to buy time and loan some of its equipment to states in need california tuesday night is set to send off 100 ventilators each to new york, new jersey and illinois, according to newsome another 200 will be distributed between maryland washington d c nevada and delaware, California State Health officials said by may theyre hoping to have them back to help nearly triple californias inventory of ventilators were looking to get somewhere between an additional 1520 more. To reach about 25 to 30,000 ventilators in the state of california. And we know that we dont need that at this moment. Economically with 2. 3 million californians applying for Unemployment Benefits and stimulus checks on the way newsome said the state is considering extending direct payments to undocumented immigrants who werent eligible for the federal payout as californians caring deeply about residents in this to provide support for those individuals lost the answers yes, all of that is being considered all part of a broader package where will all be making some significant adjustments in this physically socially and financially difficult time for many the state Surgeon General today issued a set of stress response guidelines to help californians co in sacramento, Ashley Zavala kron 4 news. Ashley now lets get the very latest on the numbers in california according to Johns Hopkins university there are now more than 17,000 confirmed cases with 450 people having died of coronavirus again thats here in the state locally in the bay area theyre almost 4,000 confirmed cases of covid19. And heres a breakdown of the counties with the column for total cases and the column for deaths and you can see Santa Clara County tops. Both of those columns with more than 1200 cases and 43 people losing their lives so far San Mateo County has registered 21 deaths, 9 people have died from covid19 in San Francisco there been 7 deaths in Contra Costa County 15 in Alameda County 10 in moran and 2 deaths in both napa and Solano County with Sonoma County reporting just one death from coronavirus so far. The nations Surgeon General says that africanamericans are at a higher risk of coronavirus doctor jerome adams made this announcement after seeing data that shows africanamericans are getting sick and dying and more than 2 times the rate of anyone else in the u. S. And there are several reasons why. A particularly difficult problem. Exacerbation of the Health Disparity weve known literally forever. That diseases like diabetes, hypertension. Obesity and asthma. Disproportionately afflicting the minority populations, particularly africanamericans unfortunately when you look at the predisposing conditions that lead to a bad outcome coronavirus the things that get people into icy use require intubation and often lead to death. They are just those very comorbidities that unfortunately disproportionately prevalent in the African American populations who are very concerned about that its very sad. Its nothing we can do about it right now except to try and get the best possible care to avoid those complications and they want to get the best information they can about at the cdc and lawmakers have started calling for the cdc. To collect full racial data of coronavirus cases and several states and cities are already doing that oakland native representative barbara lee spoke with us today about what she says needs to be done. The African American population is probably about 2829 yet 81 of deaths are African American. And we see this trend taking place around the country and its its a really. So what im trying to do is number the appropriations committees to cheddar required the centers for Disease Control to begin to collect your data based on racial and ethnic characteristics so we know what is taking place so we can direct resources into been hardest impacted communities to begin to close this disparity so everyone. Will be able become more stable than and be able access the Proper Health care that they so desperately need. President trump says that he will require the cdc to collect racial data. He said the members of the Coronavirus Task force are going to start looking into that data. Leaders of 6 perry counties officially announced the Public School campuses will stay closed for the rest of the year. And that includes alameda Contra Costa County moran. San Mateo Santa Clara and San Francisco counties schools will continue to use their at home Distance Learning. But there are a lot of questions about next year and doctor Anthony Fauci actually spoke about that briefly during the most recent Coronavirus Task force press conference. I fully expect though im humble enough to know that i cant accurately predict that by the time we get to the fall that we will have this under control enough that it certainly will not be the way it is now where people are shooting schools. Doctor fauci says the biggest question right now is whether the curve will flatten enough for summer camps to reopen in time well have to wait and see. The good news is that the kids who are on track to graduate to are still going to get their diploma. Yes, these will build across the stage in shape, the principals hand. Do all of that that much or many would love to do hopefully that will come in the fall, but in the meantime there are still some students in need of Crucial Technology to complete that coursework graduate with crawfords taylor per second to explain. As bay area schools announced closures for the rest of the school year state superintendent of Public Schools, Tony Thurmond tells parents and students that seniors will still have the opportunity to graduate and move on to college has been flexibility on every front that you can imagine. Our seniors are able to take the a p exams all of our Higher Education institutions have suspended the s a t as a condition for admission into our schools. Our School Districts are providing flexible grady in some cases, a past not pass framework for how students will be created in all of our institutions of Higher Education have accepted that as a part of the conditions for missions into our University Systems all students can still graduate. Ceremonies are up in the air, i know its disappointing. That we cant point to Graduation Ceremony can take place. Thats only because we want you to remain safe and we know that there are many districts that are planning literally planning virtual graduation ceremonies. Many of our districts are planning to have ceremonies after we received the allclear to return the campus is meanwhile schools and teachers are constantly working to improve the new norm of Distance Learning for the next several weeks the California Department of education, well work with School Districts to provide training on how to provide distancelearning however its proven to be more challenging for some students. Those without access to the internet or online devices for those students teachers are making accommodations with packets of material has the department of education works to secure more devices for the students who need them department of education is working with the governors office. And many in the Technology Sector to get devices and Internet Access to many of our students. Right now the department of education says its moving to provide a 150,000 devices for students so they have the resources to work from home like many of us weve been doing this for the last couple of weeks even then though they say its still not enough and theyre asking for donations. So if youd like to help their encouraging you to go to donate act as cte dot cnn dot gov until it was actually reported kron 4 news.

We needed that after the drier start to the season really nice way to get april kicked off especially up in the sierra where they really did heavy snow that we got to but if the rain got shut down some sunshine is ahead for us that are looking forward to that you can see some clouds this morning so definitely not a clear morning just yet we are going to hold on to low cloud cover through much of the next few hours into the afternoon though a dose of sunshine between the clouds can be expected and most importantly the drive one as you get outside for a walk around the neighborhood low pressure resulting rainfall for southern and Central California were bit too far north for this thats been the story of the season, the showers. In Southern California that just not really impacted the bay aside from a couple of sprinkles out that blows east of san jose weve been nice and quiet across the bay area this morning today were going to be seeing some cloud cover at times but also clearing into the afternoon. So good chance to step outside with a light jacket on and enjoy what will be a seasonable day couple sprinkles really just to barely skirt the southern end of the bay area during overnight hours tonight will are all sleeping tomorrow more cloudy astin cruelest a of the forecast really only a chance of a couple sprinkles in the mountains above san jose like santa cruz and diablo range is aside from that this is a dry forecast ahead of us into friday, some better clearing to be expected that sets us up for a really pleasant easter weekend around the corner. Todays daytime highs, mostly in the 60s although conquered antioch napa and santa rosa, our inland further north in the bay areas are in the 70s, san jose in Mountain View and the upper 60s ball, oakland at 65 in San Francisco at 63 tomorrow a little cooler in the lok saudi or friday, some clearing going on and that sets us up for saturday sunday monday and tuesday of next week with some really nice weather highs will be in the 70s skies will be nice and sunny the only concern here is everyones going to want to be enjoyed that weather.

Thank you sarah. The city of oakland opened a new drive through testing site for frontline workers oakland mayor libby shaft says that there could be more sites coming down the road like this.

So were ready to expand as soon as the testing availability a meet need. And mayor chef went on to say the bay area is doing a great job that social distancing. We were the first in the country this area was the first to shelter in place and she believes that thats really going to make a difference in the end.

Well, california lawmakers have adopted a statewide emergency order suspending all evictions its meant to ease the problem in the court system due to coronavirus the emergency orders just one of 11 temporary rules that have been adopted now and this one delays all of the action cases from moving forward not just those related to people who cant pay rent because of coronavirus the courts have been operating with a reduced workforce. Due to the shelter in place restrictions so they needed some way of trying to slow down the flood of cases coming their way. In Santa Clara County Health Officials are crediting social distancing for helping to flatten the curve of covid19 infections. The countys midmarch shelterinplace orders also being credited with preventing hospitals from being overrun. Kron fours rob fladeboe explains. The models together provide a projection of possible outcomes that todays virtual board of supervisors meeting Santa Clara County Public Health officer doctor sara cody cited research that shows what might have happened. If the public were not abiding by the order the county issued on march 16th calling on people to stay home. This model suggests that had we not done anything or case counts would be somewhere in the 50,000 range but with what we have in place we anticipate that our case counts by may one. Well range somewhere between. 2512,000 doctor cody emphasized the models are only estimates but the Research Suggests the shelterinplace order has not only prevented deaths. But prevented hospitalizations and bought crucial time for hospitals to prepare if you focus. On that blue line which is very much at the bottom thats the projected hospital bed use. Here is that even projecting out to the end of may. You see it like it may cross the gray line, but its not crossing the black line and so that is and very a positive sign. And that is the result of every Single Person sent in our county doing their very best to comply with shelterinplace supervisors were told that the county still lacks adequate testing and thats robust Contact Tracing must continue. To slow the spread of covid19 uncertainty a bone says doctor cody, but physical distancing staying home is working the take home is that the trend is exactly what we want to see that were lengthening the doubling time. We are slowing things down. And as weve been able to do because our community has come together and you know reducing their contacts and interactions with each other to the gritty greatest extent possible. Is san jose rob fladeboe kron 4 news. Law enforcement and First Responders arent immune of course to coronavirus and theyre still on the front lines trying to protect the public. So for the Santa Clara County Sheriffs Office so far they have 12 members who have tested positive for covid19 3 are deputies of the 12 to have recovered and return to work at a News Conference the sheriff says thats all the more reason the department created a decontamination site. This decontamination site is open to all Law Enforcement all First Responders and essential medical personnel within the county of santa clara. The site is a 10 to as you can see here and it set up in san jose outside the officer Training Center and works around the clock. So what they do is first they step in to bleach with their boots and of that solution and then to the next bucket that has water. Then they take everything off. And everything is put into chemicals to disinfect all of their gear and tell bagged up and it can be washed either on site or at home. The First Responders can even shower and dress in clean clothes, right there and that site hes going to be open indefinitely. Scientists around the world are racing to try to meet the desperate demand to stop infections. A San Francisco based Biotech Company believes they found an answer in an antibody conference al assad alone and has details. New york is now the u. S. Epicenter of the Novel Coronavirus that is crippling both health and the economy there and around the world. The states governor is now one of many people who was hoping the testing people who have already recovered maybe a solution. This tests. The blood to determine whether or not you have viewed the bodies which means you had the virus unresolved the virus. Those antibodies can then be shared with anyone like Health Care Workers. To prevent them from getting covid19 as well as help heal people that are already infected among other benefits. Well have a better feel with the anybody test about what the actual penetrates of this infection was in society. How many people have actually been infected. Whos protected. If you have anybody is very likely that youre protected. But the nations top doctors test has been approved by the fda for use just yet. Well see and youve heard about it happening in the u k and other places. Theres a series of antibody tests out there that have not been validated were working right now very closely with a series of companies that know how to make these tests that have made these tests for us for decades for hiv for rapid test meanwhile in San Francisco to speed up the process. Researchers with a Company Called distributed are diverting from starting from scratch discovering an antibody and are instead hard at work using existing antibodies. That successfully fought off sars in the past. Well we did is we went back and took antibodies that were very effective against sars and weve modified them say now recognize the Novel Coronavirus this is a big advantage over vaccines with the vaccine. You cant give them to people that are already sick because it takes to longer a bodys to produce the antibodies. Whereas with our treatment you can administer thats for someone whos sick and can immediately protect them. Doctor glanville hopes are testing will be complete by the end of summer. So they can hand them off to the military then Start Testing these antibodies on people. And dont forget to if youre finding it hard to get through this.

American airlines by about 70 to 80 . And we know that the United Airlines which has a hub here at sfo they reduced flights system wide by about 60 . And we expect that those reductions will continue for the weeks and possibly months ahead, so its going to remain very slow here at sfo. Now the other big change here at the airport is that in the last week or so with the International Terminal they closed down the a gate, the gate and also gates there are closed and theyre all sitting all International Travelers through the g.

And this morning we have an update on the condition of marine county Public Health officer doctor matt willis he was diagnosed with coronavirus 2 weeks ago. Heres what he says its been like. About covid19 1st hand over the past 2 weeks. I was diagnosed i was optimistic because my symptoms were mild. Their estimate is how serious my on this could be. I developed a viral pneumonia that landed me in bed for about 12 days fever. Chest tightness and fatigue. On day 10 of my own us. I spent some time in one of our emergency departments. Because i was having shortness of breath. And they say thats the point where you should go and to the hospital james when youre shortness of breath, ive listened to the accounts of chris cuomo a cnn and he doesnt have that yet so by all accounts his first season right out these crazy fevers and aches and at home. Its and what of pressure that is on everybody else in the house i mean chris cuomos lucky enough hes in a basement and that doctor lucky enough that sure you know has an area court. The second itself i are talking about where would you quarantine your loved one i we have small places you have to care for that love once you get to bring food you have to help in some way without infecting yourself and if youve got kids in the house. Its another level of complexity to the whole thing, yeah and to hear these people talk about what its like though it is helpful because when you dont hear how someone recovers and get through it you can scare like you know that that the majority of people will recover so its good to know what youre going to go through and what you have to go through to get better now. So more on stories like that to come in the days ahead.
