Distancing during the coronavirus outbreak. At some point, how much toilet paper is in an, really, seriously. Yesterday the president said, the Grocery Stores will stay open. There is no need to panic and by all your groceries all at once. I think some people, they see. You see the shells are empty and you have the feeling come up, i should get something. Kind of the panic mentality. We have to have it, that kind of thing. How many rolls of toilet paper do you need . It wont be forever. You have to hunker down and take it easy. Lets focus on the facts, the newest numbers. California has 337 confirm coronavirus cases, more than two thirds here in the bay area. 239 cases verify. Santa clara county has the most at 116 cases, last night a 3rd person died from the coronavirus in santa clara county. San francisco has 37 cases, San Mateo County has 32, Contra Costa County has 29. Other counties have 10 cases or fewer. Napa as of right now is the only bay area county with no confirmed cases of covid19. The Coronavirus Crisis has prompted major unprecedented changes in california. The governor has called for all seniors ages 65 and older to stay inside. He wants bars and wineries to shut down. Elissa harrington joins us live in downtown walnut creek with more on that. Good morning. Im on locust street, the heart of downtown walnut creek, behind me many businesses will be impacted by the changes. Some of them already hurting. Doing dwindling sales and food foot traffic during this pandemic. Now they either have to close or limit hours and capacity. Initially the moment Governor Newsom made the announcement. We are directing bars, nightclubs, wineries, brewpubs and the like be closed in the state of california. We believe this is a nonessential function. In our state. We believe it is appropriate under the circumstances to move in that direction. The governor called for new roles after people who tested positive for covid19 went up 14 in just a day. 6 people have died, the governor estimates 5. 3 million seniors will be affected. The seniors over the age of 65, said anyone with chronic illness should isolate themselves. Protecting the most vulnerable in our community is a top priority. We recognize social isolation for millions of californians is anxiety inducing. But we recognize what all the science is out and we recognize around the rest of the world that we need to meet this moment headon. As for restaurants the governor didnt say restaurants should close but instead try to create social distancing between different patrons. Establish establishments must reduce the capacity for half, they should focus models on takeout and food. The other thing we noticed, we went to a starbucks where they move the tables and chairs. Now when you going to starbucks you are not supposed to sit down. You are supposed to get your order and go. Another way that different establishments and businesses are trying to adhere to the social distancing guidelines. Reporting live in walnut creek, ktvu, fox 2 news. The impact of the current a virus is growing in leaps and bounds, here in california the governor ordered all people over the age of 65 to self quarantine to slow the spread. Also hundreds of thousands of children are at home for at least the next 3 weeks because schools are closed. Lets talk about this in more by welcoming dr. Oz life to the nine, thank you for being with us. Think for having me, lots of talk about. Reporter a lot of people are calling this an overreaction. Closing schools, businesses, should those people say look, even if i get it i will be okay, what you say to that . Its in our literally warranted panic, we have a crisis. If were going to avoid looking like italy in 2 weeks, we are 2 weeks behind them, i talked to gerald this morning and he confirms thats a good estimate. A country with western democracy, they have had a healthcare that was pretty good, the northern part part of the country is in crisis, milan, just like San Francisco is especially hardhit. Compared to south korea, which has 1 10 the mortality rate of the coronavirus. 1 10, south korea took bold Decisive Action like the governor. And the rest of the team, the leadership, the same as happened in new york state and other states around the country. Quickly leading in that direction as well. I like to the cdcs says no more gatherings of more than 50 people, it is the right maximum number anyways. I would urge smaller gatherings. After 2 weeks we will bend the curve down and stop having that rapid ascent we are witnessing and expecting, the surgeon general, said he expected within 68 weeks to get to their worst of it which is the right timeframe. Lets focus on facts, and ideally columns and fears. I feel every sniffle and cough is over analyze these days. What are the specific symptoms that should cause concern the classic trifecta are a fever, hacking cough that doesnt have productive spew and a sense of fatigue. I will share alarming data. I learned a few minutes ago, probably half the people who are infectious actually are presymptomatic or they are not going to get symptoms. That is data from china, where they have the largest experience. A lot of people, they are incubating for 5 days which is a long time for a virus. During the latter part of the time they are asymptomatic, and then they get sick if they get sick at all and how long the virus last is unclear. I spoke to a woman who is screen , at a routine screening on a cruise ship and she had no symptoms, doing pilates while she was in quarantine. She still build the virus and her husband is still spilling the virus 3 to 4 weeks after getting infected. We dont really understand how widespread it is. Probably because it spreads in subtle ways, very different from the case of a person in icu barely holding onto life. So why the problem with getting test kits in the community . It is primarily due to the fact that our cdc and other leadership early on decided we wanted to make a kid that was just ours as opposed to something developed by another country. There were missteps that slowed it down and thats why we are stalled. That wont cure the epidemic, that will just tell us how big it is. Finally, ive seen promises of a cure, repetitive treatments. I really trust nothing i see on facebook these days, can you give a good warning to people who may be desperate for something to help them . Son jacob to, we both agreed there is no to our, you read about a website offering one, believe me we wouldve told you. Dont buy that, these are con games, sawdust and pills, they give you give your credit card, and potentially put your life at risk. I would take vitamin d, you get from the sunlight which is shown through studies to help with the development of infections and maybe vitamin c. If you start feeling under the weather that may shorten it. Wash the hands like you are dr. Yourself, which you are, dr. Oz thank you for joining us this morning. Thank you. Taking a look at the stock markets right now. We do have Dow Jones Industrial is down 7 . The nasdaq is down 6 1 2 . The s p 500 also down, obviously you know or might know trading was halted for a while on some of these exchanges after they hit benchmarks for going down to fast. The democratic debate between Bernie Sanders and joe biden took place without an audience in an effort to limit coronavirus spread. This morning were speaking live with San Francisco chronicles political writer, joe guerra foley, about the candidates reactions to handling the crisis, good morning. Good morning. Wish i could be there with you. We are doing social distancing. It was weird yesterday, this is paul, the biggest event in my lifetime, was hanging over the debate. How do you think the candidates handled it . The handle that well from that perspective. From of your perspective, i enjoyed not having an audience. It kind of let the issues shine more. And they talked about the coronavirus for maybe the first half hour of the debate. They tried to differentiate themselves from what President Trump has done. Bernie sanders use the opportunity to talk about, this is the chance, this is why we should have a different form of healthcare, we should have a medicare for all, singlepayer system and joe biden said, this isnt the time to do that right now. Talk about revolution and changing the system, when were in the middle of a pandemic, i will divert deliver results for you. I was going to say, first of all, will anyone change their mind number 1 and number 2 are people really paying attention as much as they would be under normal circumstances . These guys may not be topof theline right now, top of mind right now frankly. Im curious to see what the numbers are on the ratings for this. Politics certainly is not top of mind these days. Although with everyone inside you may have more of a captive audit audience, people watching the television on the various screens. Thats the challenge they face right now. The story in the print edition of the chronicle, asking about how the campaigns are struggling. Right now, this would be prime season for our campaigns to be knocking at your door, saying hello persontoperson which is most effective form of campaigning. But no one wants to answer the door let alone take Campaign Literature for someone. I ask you. Because i want to make sure i get it and. Joe biden pledged yesterday to choose a woman as a running mate, do you think he was ready for that, do you think you got painted into a corner . And of course you saw Bernie Sanders that he is leaning that way. Do you think joe biden was ready or did they just kind of quarter him . I think he was ready for that. I think that was the news they wanted to break in the debate. Around that time, sanders was winning the debate, the actual debate, painting biden into a corner, having to defend the stanzas he took 10, 20 years ago on Social Security and such a. So yes, he is committed to choosing a woman. Huge news. Bernie sanders also said he is very likely to do so as well. And now let the veepstakes began. Will have a story on our website with some of the favorites. I will get you on the spot here. Who would help, lets assume, maybe i shouldnt assume, lets say joe biden gets the nomination. It seems to be trending that way. If i put you on the spot who would held bidens campaign more if you chose for example Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren or amy klobuchar, which candidate do you think would help more in the general election . The over Different Things, Different Things to the ticket. Kamala harris is a woman of color, she would help excite a large majority of the democratic base. Amy klobuchar would help with minnesota, Hillary Clinton barely won the state. That would help their, also help the upper midwest among white voters there. Which is a weak point for the democrats in 2016. Elizabeth warren, again, would help bring in progressives, keep them in the fold and there is a chance Bernie Sanders is not the nominee if they go home. He may help them stick around.
