Down into the mideighties at our warmest well coastal in bayside areas remain in the 60s and 70s. James all right john thank you want to begin this morning with the very latest on the coronavirus pandemic record breaking cases have triggered rollbacks on the reopenings across nearly 40 states. In american fact yesterday the u. S. Had the most infections recorded in a single day. Take a look at this chart Johns Hopkins university reporting now that more than 50,000 new cases were reported you wednesday alone and that brings the total number of positive cases here in the u. S. To more than 2. 6. Million with more than 128,000 people having died experts worry that if things dont turn around soon. The nation could eventually see a 100,000 new cases each and every day. Heres a look at the numbers closer to home across the state of california. We have more than 238,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus and more than 6,000 deaths. In the bay area we have more than 25,000 cases confirmed with 500 and 84 deaths. And california is leading the way with that terrible raise to coronavirus highs Governor Newsome taking action to try to slow the spread now and rolling back. The reopening plans. He identified 19 counties where restaurants, bars wineries museums, zoos card rooms and movie theaters have to remain closed for 3 weeks and then well see those county or the states communities that have seen. Spread thats why theyre on a watch list. They make up 72 of the states population, so a lot of people affected by this in the bay area. This includes solano and contra costa and santa clara counties. This doesnt mean restaurants shut down it means that were trying to take activities many activities as we can. These mixed activities is concentrated activities and move them outdoors california unlike some others. We were successful in bending that curve we will be successful. Again inventing this new curve. The governor or your parking lots at state beaches to be closed for the Holiday Weekend. That includes wanted crown memorial state beach in alameda. When hes done this in the past and closed the parking lots that really cuts into the amount of people go because theres nowhere for them to park absolutely and especially important to the Holiday Weekend. People are flocking in droves to one coronavirus testing site in the east bay in fact the demand for a test is so big that officials are now being forced to close that site. Early crawfords will trend live to california state university, east bay campus with the story well. James you can see it right behind me its the infrastructure is set in place and its been there for a couple of months, but over the past couple of weeks weve seen an uptick in coronavirus cases so they were steady for a long time, no problems with people showing up in fact well have video that the stories weve done over the past couple of months people showed up they all got tested no problems but because theres been an uptick in cases and lets face it a lot of people are fearful that they may have coronavirus that theyre turning out in droves that just 2 days ago. They actually shut down this location at 1230 in the afternoon. Thats 3 and a half hours before the scheduled close time because they did not want people to be stuck in line only to find out that they would not be tested. The other day they tested about 500 people on any given day before that they were around 30350 people but the uptick has caused this place to be so overwhelmed that the staff actually theyre staying longer than your schedule closing time just to get things done when this all started a couple of months ago the problem was the labs. Were not able to process so many tests per day now the labs can do that the only problem now is that so many people are turning out that the testing sites themselves they are being overrun that you want to come down to this location, it opens up at 9 oclock in the morning and theoretically closes at 4 oclock in the afternoon. So long as its not overwhelmed again is scheduled to close july 31st. Once again its worth reminding. It does not cost you anything but the jumping off point is that you have to have a fever of at least 100 degrees or so and they dont care about immigration status. He should get here early because again they closed hours before they were set to close in with the case is continuing to rise arise every day we do expect this place to get even busier james. Interesting yeah that cabbie out while supplies last so well see what time they after close up shop today. Thank you will.

But Solano Countys Health Officer says that increase in hospitalizations as well as cases is not to do things like Indoor Dining the reason that were seeing the surge is mostly because of people having family gatherings and social gatherings on the weekend and in addition, we also have a pretty sizable outbreak among migrant farm workers. And now the officer says he is unsure shutting down Indoor Dining will have much of an impact on the numbers unless those social activity stop. Back at the loft wine bar and Restaurant Business has been good since Indoor Dining reopen 6 weeks ago. Now though just have to survive with patio dining only.
