The white house is trying to establish widespread coronavirus contact tracy. Officials say the Contact Tracing is a key to reopening the economy but as sara sidery explains that process can be both difficult and expensive. This was painful. Amy driscoll says coronavirus had her in a vise grip that wouldnt let go for weeks every brass every movement every you know raising your arms rolling over in bed every single thing is painful less than 2 hours after arriving home from the hospital her phone rang it was the county Health Department asking lots of questions who am i seen in the last 2 weeks where was i in the last 2 weeks who is eyeing content with where do i work the Health Department was doing what is called Contact Tracing you have to trace. Every person who comes up positive. Trace means investigate investigate all those prior contacts pressed traister steps. She got to work for boston staff had to be contacted she went to a restaurant for lunch, she went to her hair some on they had to be contacted. She went to a Cleveland Cavaliers game all her Family Members who sat with her were contacted this kind of Contact Tracing is happening across the country and the those suffering through the deadly covid19 outbreak in new york to those connected to the first major us outbreak in Washington State to california. The first place where a statewide stay at home order was announced experts say without Contact Tracing and enough testing america and the world cannot reopen safely were going to be. At risk of resurgence of this disease not just in the fall and going into next year to say without Contact Tracing a massive amount without testing a massive amount we could find ourselves right back where we started i think we can find ourselves very much at risk of another resurgence that the u. S. Does not have enough people to do that racing. State Health Officials estimate there are about 2000 people doing this work now the Johns Hopkins university warns we need at least 100,000. For now Contact Tracing is only as good as your memory. This is hard i mean before stay at home orders can you remember all the people you had close contact with over a 2 week period say at the coffee shop. Youre at the Grocery Store. At your Childs School and thats where big tech like google and apple are jumping in they will soon have an app you can voluntarily download built with Health Departments so they concede it held location data from your cell phone. But the public may be skittish about it due to privacy concerns still Contact Tracing require serious leg work. La mer is pushing for federal help were probably going to need hundreds of thousands of americans to be put to work it should be funded by the feds been acted locally as for driscoll her contacts have been found the Health Department tells her that none have symptoms so far.

How theyre going to purchase the necessary food. The reasons for the delays according to experts the sheer volume of americans who are eligible some 150 million for people who didnt file electronic tax returns a dont have direct deposit arrangements with the irs. Its taking longer to get them their payments via snail mail that. Process of printing in stopping those checks is going to take many a many weeks and the estimate i seen is that it will take about 4 to 5 months also some people told cnn their payments were sent to all Bank Accounts that have since been closed and millions of low income people who are not required to file tax returns are harder to locate while they wait desperate for money some are turning to shops.

And also mountain snows with that too seems like were able to scrounge up some mountain snow through all that rest of the week High Pressure starts to build look at that keep away keep away thats the warming all the way to next weekend in the following week.

Even hear more seeing as we talked about last week the negative thinking leads to negative feelings, negative behaviors. So definitely give yourself a break it to you know like when youre south loading and one years self punishing thats going to lead to another round of Emotional Eating so since so try not to do that. It really can become a spiral cant it. Oh absolutely and now they have another name for this Emotional Eating during that that quarantine they calling it in a stall to eating haha really whats whats that about. Well so that means that for cut that people are looking for their comfort food, but theyre looking to go back to the foods that they loved when theyre tied to a child their childhood favorite and a lot of those of course are packed with sugar on thinking of things like 20s and ho hos and. Apple jacks and all of that that you had when youre a kid and you yeah not a good not a good way to go im one of the things that comes of this is that a lot of us are reaching from food more often now because were in an emotional. Dealing with an emotional time right now. Right right it and it and its difficult to you know its like if you are you know your route to food all the time, its browns you 24 7 imagine if you are a smoker and youre told to carry a pack of cigarettes in your front pocket all day long kind of its very tempting still yet just putting the food at a site will also help you know making sure its its not there. They found that when that food is is right there in you youre going to eat a lot more. One thing that a lot of people do i know and and thats part of just the new normal is that weve been hoarding a lot of things including food. Ive seen a lot of people buying pasta rice enough to last the whole year let alone a couple of weeks. Right and you know what thats a double edged sword because we are encouraged to you dont stop pile because of the facts so you do dont go to the store more than once a week or once every 2 weeks. But the study show that you eat 81 more calories when you have food out even when you buy it in bulk. So. Baby 81 81 thats incredible more calories. Yeah is it is. So so if you do you have buy in bulk like that yeah try to keep it to maybe see stuart someplace else so its just not visible youre not seeing those big piles of food so this really this really amounts to just making a plan here as we have to do with so many things in life now. Is is to make a plan on what were going to eat what were going to store where were going to put it. Yes, so if you can avoid stopped stocking up on some of effort to get something that that would even be better. One other tip that you have thats really inteaesting and that is to try and any based on an internal clock. Yes and it should say they also found that you eat more often when you are eating according to the now that youre at home you have the advantage of eating when its your time when youre hungry so its a matter of differentiating between being emotionally being actually physically hungry so. The emotional the emotional hunger could come at any time right. Yes, and thats thats where it gets a little dangerous so you know one of my tips is it it to differentiate between the emotional hunger and the and the physical hunger if youre renting through your refrigerator, your pantry and if you are offered carrots or you would probably say yes, ill eat it if youre physically hungry, but if youre emotionally hungry probably not youve got to have the cupcakes yeah let me a twinkie and physical hunger does not differentiate between carrots and cook it, yeah well the other the other thing too is that a lot of times we crave a specific food, ive got to have some popcorn or i got to have you know that go back to the 20 again. That is also part of stress eating is not. Yes, and that is Emotional Eating when you have those specific ratings. But what if youre physically hungry, you youre just looking for food, youre not looking for anything specific. I know the one thing we have a tendency of doing at times like this is say well, you know what i can have that because i deserve it look what look what im having to deal with. Yes, exactly and that is i always tell people that is the number one red flag when youre saying i deserve, you know, then that means that you rewarding yourself with food and that is thats part of the whole Emotional Eating. Syndromes. In the time that we have left lets talk a little bit about trying to make availability inconvenient for us hiding it away. Another thing out of sight out tonight is at the cutting it and you know making it difficult they actually did a study where they they looked at this and if you can make it put it at a higher shelf put it behind some of the the healthier foods just making it harder to get to it also kind of make a plan and say ok when i do snack, im going to put it on a plate im going to sit down and eat it and that will vest person standing up and getting it out of the bag just look at convenient to eat and have been to my house where you just open the bag and just to point out of the bag they talk about not for karen karen to wrap things up whats the take away here. Well to try not to form some new habits right at this time because once were out of this. Its going to be really difficult to let go those habits in to break those habits so just better better just try not start anything new like that. Yeah dont go there all right karen thanks.
