The latest now from the cdc and theyre estimating about 40 of people infected with coronavirus do have symptoms or no symptoms at all which makes it awfully tough to identify them because theyre still carriers they can still transmit. But they dont always get tested because they dont know that theyre infected kron fours michelle kingston has the story. I usually people with asymptomatic infection and not usually identified because thats the motivation to go get tested. Asymptomatic carriers people who are sick but have mild or no symptoms at all make up 40 of people infected with coronavirus this is according to the cdc ucsf Infectious Disease specialist Peter Chinhong says while they once saw this as a bad thing because of how much these people are spreading the disease recent evidence shows it may be a good thing because it may indicate that these people are getting less of the virus or may have seen a similar virus in the past or that some of the more severe cases may have started off mild at first light, its comforting to know that. At least not everybody whos is symptomatic will progress on this train to buy things and this many people it is not a disease. Well, maybe kind of the chosen ones are protected and they may not get sick. The problem is we dont know who those people are thats why we need to all maintaining safety right now the cdc also reports asymptomatic cases are challenging to identify because people who dont know they are infected are less likely to get tested should hong believes the longer we wait for a vaccine and the longer the pandemic continues the more likely were going to see more widespread testing possibly even being done at home more often i think. That will be the strategy of the few should control the epidemic until we got the boxing because at the end of the day when the setting to it. Tells you if you have it. So you can keep yourself away.

Yeah weve got a nice shanahan from our sister station ktxl with reaction from doctors. It still can be quite scary and quite severe doctor dean blumberg of u c davis Childrens Hospital is reacting to a report from the centers for Disease Control that looks specifically at covid19 in children so weve heard a lot about how its milder in children compared to adults and it is milder in children. And yet children may still have severe disease. The cdc report examines data from 14 states, including california between march 1st in july 25th within the survey, there were 576 cases of covid19 in children, 17 and younger. 208 of the children were hospitalized 69 admitted to intensive care units 12 required ventilators and there was one death of the 69 children who ended up in the icu the report showed about 40 of them having preexisting conditions the most common being obesity as well as lung disease. And its believed that a lot of these children may not routine medical care and they might have delayed medical care they might not have access to care and that allows these underlying conditions to predispose them having more severe disease. The cdc report acknowledges infection and hospitalization rates among children are still significantly lower compared to adults but once they get it they can certainly spread to other people so they can spread it within the family. And spread it older adults, so its important even for Young Children for parents to protect themselves to not bringing in the household and to protect their children so that nobody gets infected in their household weve seen several with children being very sick as well as other family members being being sects and doing the social distance scene outside of your household as much as possible is useful and then wearing a Face Covering when youre out in public as of the 2 most important things the people can do Dennis Shanahan fox 40 news.

Reports of a red tesla being involved no injuries inside that vehicle. But the other vehicles have either moved to the fremont street offramp or move to the shoulder but in any event there is one car that apparently caught fire and at last check was fully engulfed, although it looks like maybe they put that up because i dont see flames or smoke anymore. But its the scenario right there at the Center Screen its the app you can kind of make it out between the flashing lights there of the vehicles there in the center of the screen. There is some wreckage and weve got the cursor kind of circling around that right now so it looks like fires on firefighters are on scene they put out the fire. But youve got the numbers 1, 2, 3 lanes blocked so its year 3 lefthand lanes that are blocked and everybodys got to merge to the right. So this is going to cause major problems for your commute across the bay bridge and the backup that we saw earlier at the toll plaza, which initially look like a normal back up its going to take a lot longer to clear and heres that shot for you so if you have to head into San Francisco this morning know that the chp has issued a sigler for the bay bridge, which means theyre advising you to find an alternate route because theyre not sure exactly how long its going to take to clear the scene perhaps bart might be a better option for you or if youre in the east bay maybe can take the san mateo bridge and come up the peninsula that way but the situation on westbound 80 here right near 5th street in fremont is that there is car accident multiple cars, one of them caught fire and the 3 left lanes are blocked, well keep you updated as to when there might be an even estimated time of reopening, but at this point they just dont have one.

No reports on anybody injured just yet it looks like perhaps maybe everybody got out of this just fine but were still waiting for that update. But the far left lanes though number 1, 2, 3, so the 3 left lanes are blocked everythings got a funnel to the right and it looks like things have just gotten worse because according to the chp long it looks like weve got an additional 4 vehicles involved in some sort of accident in the back up. And thats blocking the far left lane. The number one lane as they call it so this is going to be a mess for a while as they try to clear this out avoid the bay bridge has sig alert been issued which means you need to find another alternate route around the folks stuck at the bay bridge. Theyve got no choice. These guys are going to be here for a while as they wait for things to funnel through if you havent left the house yet id recommend either taking the san mateo bridge and coming up the peninsula. Maybe taking bark. Or perhaps maybe the Richmond Sandra fell and then down the golden gate. But in any event avoid the bay bridge for now as we have those lanes blocked on the on the westbound a teesside heading into San Francisco right there near fremont street. We know that doctor Anthony Fauci just said that he thinks that there should be universal maskwearing because of coronavirus is kids are heading back to school. The question is how good is the mask youre wearing. Brian todd takes a look at a new study. They come in so many different styles materials and designs from a 95 surgical masks to bandanas knitted masks even socalled gators those stretchy bands of fabric that cover the neck. A new study from researchers at Duke University has advice on which masks work and which dont gators or fleece masks they say you should stay away from. Its a combination certainly off. Stretching is the material and immaterial potentially being very thin. The bandanna according to the researchers may look cool but doesnt work well. The minute you itself. That is just me a little bit more transparent a little bit more transmits it to these droplets in addition, theres of course lots of gas. The duke researchers tested 14 different kinds of masks, they shine here, it doesnt light from a laser through slits in a dark box, a person spoke one phrase repeatedly into the box to create problems. The healthy people. The healthy people. They used a cell phone camera to record the droplets then counted the droplets that were let through by the different masks the ones that work well they say and 95 surgical masks for the best letting up very few if any droplets but those should be reserved for frontline healthcare workers, those standard surgical masks the light blue ones that many of us can buy at stores also work well they say and all the cotton masks we tested. They were great. The duke researchers say theres one kind of mask that they believe does more harm than good the fleece mask because of the size of droplets it let through. Whats notable here is that you see a lot of particles and lots of little particles. So this is actually counterproductive because the little particles that could generate is from big particles. They tend to hang around longer the air they can get carried away easier in the air. The duke researchers told cnn their studies not meant as an endorsement of certain masks. Other experts are hopeful that this kind of advice can be communicated more clearly to the public acknowledging theres been way too much confusion. We should not have any confusion of the mosque wearing this is confusion. That we the front line workers. The government Public Health experts doctors nurses and other influential pay when it comes to Infection Prevention control and actually corrected because we havent got on the same page on what works and what doesnt work and what works based on evidence brian todd, cnn, washington.

Heres a quick live look outside with better cameras, San FranciscoInternational Airport if youre heading to the airport donts dont forget this and youre in the east bay dont think youre going to take the bay bridge and make your flight on time weve got a big hot spot thats really jam things up there. So my recommendation head down to the san mateo bridge. Across the bay and then come off from the south towards sfo again w and we are back time now is 6. 55 a quick update on the traffic hotspot this morning as you can see weve got an issue here this is westbound 80. The bay bridge upper deck coming into San Francisco right near fremont street multi vehicle accident a car on fire at one point. The chp updating their sig alert the numbers 1, 2, and 3 lanes blocked thats the far left lane your 3 left lanes on the bridge block and you can see traffic is having to funnel all the way over to the right hand side this is going to cause major problems for the morning commute for anybody taking the bay bridge so find another way around thats the recommendation from the chp the backup at the bay bridge already locked in those folks.
