But like you mentioned aria things are opening up businesses are opening up. So Health Officials are urging people out there if youre out and about to make sure you wear a mask when youre out doing any of the activities the businesses ive seen on this street theyve all had on mask and the people that are frequenting those businesses also are Wearing Masks for now reporting here in Alameda County harvey kron 4 news.

S. In fact now has 25 of the total cases in the world and 25 of deaths even though america only has. 4 of the worlds population lucy kavanaugh has the latest. On capitol hill, an urgent warning from the nations top Infectious Disease doctor. As President Trump campaign and the other side of the country in arizona, one of the states experiencing a rapid increase in reported coronavirus cases were now seeing. A disturbing surge of infections. The next couple of weeks are going to be critical in our ability to address those surgeons that was seeing. New weekly infections are on the rise in at least 26 states, including california recording 5,000 new cases its highest daily count since the start of the pandemic here in texas, one of the first states to begin reopening. Governor greg abbott now says its possible restrictions will be back. Because the span so rampant right now, theres never a reason for you to have to leave your home unless you do need to go out the safest place for you as that youre home theres no statewide mandate for Wearing Masks in texas nor is there in florida where Governor Ron Desantis is still resisting issuing one catch more flies with honey than vinegar and you touch criminal penalties for something.

A county face mask rule was not enforced that trumps indoor event at an arizona mega church as the state reported a new single day record of cases that nearly 3,600 doctor Anthony Fauci giving this advice to help slow the spread dont go in a crowd. Plan b if you do make sure you wear a mask. Fauci along with other top Health Officials testifying before a House Committee about the trump administrations response to the coronavirus weve all done that. The best that we can do to tackle is virus. And the reality of brought this nation to its knees. And shutting down this claim from President Trump last week so i said to my people slow the testing down please. Trump staff said he was kidding. But according to the president i dont kid by having more cases. It sounds bad. Fauci telling lawmakers he was unaware of any delays to my knowledge, none of us had ever been told to slow down on testing that just is a fact in fact we will be doing more testing. And on the question of a possible vaccine. I still think there is a reasonably good chance. That by the very beginning of 2021. That if were going to have a vaccine that we will have it by then. In sacramento, the state capital staff member is in selfisolation after being the first in the building there to test positive for covid that staff member only worked in the Capital Office and wore a Face Covering and had minimal interaction with anybody else less than 2 weeks ago the rules committee warned the legislature of a possible exposure after to Highway Patrol officers tested positive the officers were assigned to the building in response to the protests around the capital its unclear if the officers or the ones who spread the virus to that staffer. Another big story this morning baseball is back with the league and the Players Association finally coming to an agreement kron fours will tran on that story for us live from oracle park in San Francisco. Big day for baseball fans will finally baseball on tv to watch right. Repeat after me right you can come back to the ballpark because fans will not be allowed inside only the players and the tv crews. So it will be televised 60 games is set at 162. But at least we have baseball live sports. At least the major leagues. Were talking baseball basketball football, Major League Baseball will be back one week from today will be spring training, you might recall they tried spring training before covid19 and they had to shut it down the giants the as all of the baseball teams because the shelter in place. They try to do it a second time, but some players came down with covid19 so they shut it down again and then they spent the last 3 weeks fighting over money which a lot of fans thought that was tone deaf. So many people are unemployed struggling in here they are millionaires on both sides, the owners and the players fighting over millions of dollars but the bottom line is they asked it out there will be a season and fans like bill and allie are excited i stopped to from walking by this morning. I told you the news your reaction despite not being in the best ballpark in the majors. Im really thrilled wave miss it terribly and i miss or broadcasters it will be wonderful to hear them again. Will it be weird to watch even a game without organs, playing say fans in the background you can see fans are part of beyond even during a telecast it will be the same but it will be something were looking forward to. Or was it like not having to be so close to the ballpark in walking by really missing really missing a positive. Part of our hour by hour. You are here at age and Everything Else its just wonderful baseball is positive we need its american pie and hot dogs, your reaction about a shorter season, the players wanted a longer season 60 games is not to read them.

Cosby has been in a prison in philadelphia for about 2 years so far after a jury convicted him of drugging and sexually assaulting a woman at his home in 2004. His sentences 3 to 10 years. The Supreme Court of the state decided he could go forward with an appeal and theyre agreeing to review 2 aspects of the case including the judges decision to let prosecutors call 5 other accusers to testify about encounters with cosby and the court will also consider whether the jury should have heard evidence that cosby had given sleeping pills to women in the past. The fbi says that wrote that nascar driver Bubba Wallace found in the garage show where he dinner nascar race, it wasnt a hate crime. But he says it was a noose no doubt about it and it was offensive. Video evidence shows the rope was hanging and serving as a garage pole and had actually been there. Since october of 2019 way before wallace was a side of that garage last weekends talladega race and the last race or to use the garage where the rope on was white ways car. Why a driver wallace is the only black a nascar driver. Theres also evidence said there were nooses used in other garages as polls and nascar as far back as 2017. But wallace says whether the rope was a poll for the garage or not whether it was aimed at him specifically or not it was a noose and it should be considered a hate crime because its a symbol of hate.

We have Senate Democrats saying that theyre planning on blocking a republican backed bill on Police Reform they say it doesnt accomplish anything substantial and they want to see the democratic version taken up at some point our washington correspondent joe khalil explains. Senate democrats say its not enough to pass any Police Reform bill they see the moment requires meaningful legislation we have proposed a prescription. That actually responds to not just their demands but the specific cases and the bodies that have just most recently been buried much less the generations of black bodies that have been buried because of this issue senator Kamala Harris as Senate Republicans are not acting in good faith, the republican bill has been thrown out to give lip service to an issue. With nothing substantial and harrison fellow democrat cory booker are pushing the senate to instead take up their justice in policing which mirrors the House Democrats bill if we dont implement real measures of accountability is not if. But when we will be back here again senators booker and harris say theyre going to vote against even bringing the republican version of Police Reform up for debate, something their republican counterparts say its a mistake. Theres no opportunity. For anyone any search or you or anyone of us to offer amendments to improve it republican senator john cornyn says by blocking debate on the bill democrats like harris or preventing a worthwhile public discussion the senator would rather have these negotiations occur behind closed doors. As opposed to here on the floor of the Senate Republican senators need to convince 7 democrats to vote for the republican bill later this week or the bill dies in washington, im joe khaleel.
