Talk more about what happened reyna. And its right it was hard to miss it 30 foot tall statue here right behind me and now its replaced with a sign from the city the city letting people know this morning why they decided to remove that statue again were going to show you what it looks like here before it was removed. You can see this sir Francis Drake statue it had been here for many years i talked to residents in the area this morning. We were confused as to why was in here this morning. They are so used to seeing on their morning jog. Now people have been calling for the removal of the metal statue for weeks protesters said they wanted the statue gone because sir Francis Drake was a slave trader. Now theres a sign left by the city like i mention that says they temporarily remove the statue in response to demonstrators saying they were going to remove the statue them sales and so the city wanted to make sure they removed it before that happened now a petition on change dot org had received thousands of signatures calling for the removal. That sir Francis Drake statue when i last checked this morning that petition was over 9,000 signatures there. Now the city council next month, according to the sign behind me says theyre going to update the residents here and let them know exactly what their next steps are going to be in terms of that sign because again on their says its a temporary removal, so i dont know if that means that theyre going to keep it. Removed or if theyre going then put it back up well be talking about that. Well the next City Council Meeting that theyre having here next month.

Demon see or alien dna as part of covid joe johns has more. As the United States moves even closer to losing 150,000 people to the deadly disease. President trump used tuesdays Coronavirus Briefing to spread more misinformation and his own grievances. You can look at large portions of our country it said. Its corona free the president even complained about the popularity of 2 of the nations Top Health Officials leading the Coronavirus Task force. So it sort of is curious a man works for us with us very closely doctor fauci and doctor birx also highly sot of. And yet fairly good of but nobody likes me it can only be my personality trump once again endorsed the use of the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine as a covid19 treatment despite no prove that it works and potentially harmful side has the kids. Recommendations of many of the peoples and people including doctors. Many doctors think it is extremely successful one of those doctors is in this video re tweeted by the president monday showing a group in white coats pushing false claims about covid19 it has since been deleted by twitter and other social media platforms to get sick. Hoping the city for months. I want to talk about mass pillow. You might ask. Very respected doctors and there was a. A woman who was spectacular in here statements about it. That woman a houston based doctor who promotes bizarre conspiracy theories online. Cnns Kaitlan Collins pressing President Trump on why he shared the clip. Shes also made that is saying that doctors may miss it using dna from aliens and that theyre trying to create a vaccine to make you immune from becoming religious she was on air along with many other doctors. There were big fans of hydroxychloroquinn and i thought she was very impressive in the sense that i know nothing about to be clear medical experts and the fda say hydroxychloroquinn is not a cure for the virus the ov rwhelming prevailing clinical trials.

Well california is changing the way to collecting covid19 the state is focusing more on how the virus affects of race and ethnicity orientation, gender going to look at all of that fact for months the lgbtq groups have been urging the state to provide data on how exactly coronavirus is affecting members of their community. We know there have been growing concerns over the virus is impact on minorities for instance, the Latin Community accounts for more than half of californias coronavirus cases and nearly half of all the states deaths. Proving arcadia its like getting a new era claassens that helps us see more clearly. Using binoculars to see a little further out we expect over the course of the next month.

If you look at the bay area numbers youll see we have more than 48,000 cases with 758 deaths. In the east bay people in Contra Costa County can get a fine now if theyre caught not wearing a mask. Kron 4 Sarah Stinson is live with the details sarah. Yeah active immediately if you are not wearing a mask youre ignoring the health order across the county you could be fined anywhere from a 100 up to a 1000 depending on it. Its an individual breaking that health order or the one behind me like a restaurant or anything like that its a hefty fines that you could face if you continue to ignore it and they are putting in place immediately. This was voted on by the Contra Costa County board of supervisors unanimously on fines for businesses and individuals. The consensus of monkeys bore supervisors is that they needed to do some type of enforcement to help combat the spread of coronavirus supervisors say if we dont crack down now then we will have to shut down our communities later when those numbers spike a violation would amount to an infraction rather than a misdemeanor felony, the offender would have up to 2 days to correct their error. Lets take a look at the breakdown of the numbers a 100 for a first violation for an individual 200 for that second violation, 500 max for each violation within one year of that first offense. Now lets take a look for businesses 250 would be the first violation fine and then up to a 1000 for each violation within one year of that first offense, no. Lets take a listen to a woman i just talked to here in downtown walnut creek. She says right now is not a time to be finding people during a time when people are struggling financially. Finding people now is the wrong time. Weiss on the network and just got completely shut down so im not a work my moms out of work. Bicep does out of work so its like if were walking outside or not wearing a mask. We have fine.

Well be also worries about the people like yourself, the dont know about this yet hopefully were telling people now on the news and theyll find out about it, but she said she didnt know and she hopes that they get some kind of warning if they didnt know now the signs all over downtown walnut creek can see in the video there and contra costa counties, not the only county doing this napa and marion counties have already started doing the fines for people who break the health order. Im live in walnut creek Sarah Stinson kron 4 news, thanks. A lot sarah. 7 09 is the time several businesses in Santa Cruz County have to stop all indoor operations.

Beaches outdoor retail stores. Those fortunately will remain open. As the u. S. Nears a 150,000 coronavirus deaths this summer afraid the start of the new school year is going to mean a further spread of the virus thats a big worry kron fours dan kerman has a closer look now at the Distance Learning plans that have been set up by the San Francisco unified School District. When schools in San Francisco begin the fall session on august 17th classrooms will remain empty as will playgrounds all due to covid19. The San Francisco unified school board met tuesday to discuss what schools will look like a combination of print base learning kits and actual online instruction. But with the virtual doors opening up in less than 3 weeks parents remain in the dark about numerous things for working if youre looking 2 and a half weeks out if i have to request a schedule change from my employer. If you or me and privilege enough to work from home and make your own schedule you still have to plan around whatever yours your childs schedule is and so today we just know that School Starts in 2 and a half weeks we dont know what time it starts. We dont know how much time theyre going to have to be in front of a screen. We dont know when assignments are ready the School District says theyre still working out details with the teachers union. And hope to share specific soon in the meantime the district is also looking ahead to when students will be able to return to the classroom. Even then things will be different of the districts 54,000 students only 15,000 will be able to attend safely each day priority will likely be given to the youngest students prek through second and those with disabilities. Still parents hope there is a way everyone can get some time in the classroom. Perhaps theres an opportunity for all students to return even just a little bit. Im under the hybrid model so that not nobodys really in Distance Learning completely if and when schools can open. And the social distancing and health and safety the number one priority when students do go back to the classroom. How do you group them because you cant take them all at once you have some go in the morning and some in the afternoon you alternate days or do have some go for a week or a month and then you have others go for a week or a month. Again that 2 still has to be decided. Dan kerman kron 4 news. And were waking up to a lot of fog and cloud cover around the bay area, especially in our downtown san jose camera.

The fire continues to burn we just got an update from the San Francisco Fire Department and ill tell you why they will be here for the next welcome back, it is 7. 28 and we want to get a look at the forecast for this wednesday good morning wreck a good morning. James good morning daria im looking at a lot of fog lot of gray skies out there, especially here. And our San Francisco International Airport camera right now but the good news is clearing is on the way sunshine is on the way for much of the bay area we just have to through the next couple of hours. It is going to burn off going be a sunny in some warm spots as well even some hot spots inland. Much of the same for tomorrow and then this weekend its going to get even warmer and hot especially inland. Im talking a lot more 90s were going to be seeing all that all completely in my a big forecast coming up in just a bit now back to the news, thanks a lot at 7. 29 and happening now on lets go to the live scene of the fire in south of market in San Francisco where will tran. Has been following the damage done. Daria the fire will continue to burn for at least the next several days and thats why you see the Fire Department here they have 3 engines. They can tell you that every now and then they will raise a ladder we showed it to the couple of hours ago and the latter is fully extended. It looks like now they dont need to be hot spots are going to be a huge concern moving forward and heres the reason why let me show you video from yesterday the fire started at 6. 30 yesterday morning. Quickly exploded to a 5 alarm fire and to translate that into numbers thats about a 150 firefighters throne at this fire where the black smoke just swept across the skyline. It took them about 4 hours just to stop the forward progress of the fire. Theyre still not even calling it contained this morning were about 25 hours into the fight and it is far from being contained. We do know that 6 buildings were either damaged or destroyed and because so many things were damaged and destroyed. According to Jonathan Baxter the lieutenant with the San Francisco Fire Department who just held a News Conference he says that is why they will remain here for the next several days. We have basically. 2 to 3 buildings out have basically collapse upon each other from the fire. So you have all of that Building Material with the addition of all the material that was already with in those buildings that burns and to be able to get to the seat of those areas is very difficult with lots of water to burned as they have piles and piles of layers and layers of items on top of that. Right now theyre doing a shift change and they did say every 4 hours or so they will continue to douse thousands of gallons of water down to the flames. I also can tell you the cause of the fire remains under investigation simply too early for them to find out what exactly started. They did say about 7 hours before the fire started near this location. There was a mattress fire at a homeless encampment, but they did go out there put out that fire so thats still on the table but they do believe that was probably not the cause of this fire until the hot spots are completely out then and only then will they allow their investigators to safely go inside to find out the cause of the fire. Daria thank you and well that fire affected businesses and homes kron fours morning. Kelly has reaction from that. Heres video that shows the flames shooting up alongside the central freeway people showing up to work nearby captured images of the huge wall of flames and the massive column. 6 black smoke. People who are just waking up had to scramble to get out in case the fire moved in their direction as quite scary. So we just decided to grab our personal belongings and bottom lines stab at great, so we did evacuate very quickly. One man was asleep inside his business along with his dog when the fire broke out. And look to the sky building and theres a column of black smoke about 3 or 4 feet wide grab my dog run around and within 20 minutes, the entire block was in flames is building was flooded by the water used to put out the flames, its devastating for the business course along with everybody in covid in business down many for a lot of businesses this is you know its something that. You know what you know for being locked down for so long, you know Something Like this is just another you know you just got to take it in stride. You can see the remains of our failed sales of Building Materials company that had stood in this spot for decades literally side because the building was such an icon for this neighborhood say just said.
