Hundreds of people are going to some of the beaches that have reopened. They reopened just last night. You can see, not a lot of social distancing being practiced there. Our reporters are standing by with the latest. I want to begin with Kristen Holmes at the white house this morning. Good to see you. Talk to us about this discrepancy were hearing, the Vice President saying there are enough tests some governors, including republican governors, saying we dont have enough. Reporter thats right. Its really a discrepancy, that weve heard since the pandemic broke out on u. S. Soil. We know it was just over a month ago that President Trump said any Single Person who wanted a test could get a test, and it wasnt true then and it doesnt seem to be true now. That, of course, is according to both democratic and republican officials. There are two things going on here. This is what im hearing from state officials on the ground. One is the length of time it takes to test. We know the administration has really been pushing these states towards certain labs, private labs, as well as state run public labs and i hear from the officials on the ground the turn around time is too long, four to five days, you cant pull people out of the workforce for four to five days while they wait for the test results. On the other hand the missing component is the supplies, there is a shortage of supplies used in the test kit, one is the chemical reagent used and the other is the cotton swabs used to take the test. This is something President Trump said they were going to fix. He said just yesterday they were going to send 5. 5 million swabs to states this week. Im going to tell you, they have said this before a republican official said, it seems too good to be true, ill believe it when i see it on this one. Kristen holmes for us at the white house. Thank you. Lets go to florida, a state with nearly 25,000 coronavirus cases. Hundreds of people went to jacksonville beaches after they officially opened last night. Randy kaye is following the latest from jacksonville beach. Whats the beach like this morning . Reporter good morning. It is its pretty busy. Its not as busy yet as it was yesterday evening when they first opened at 5 00, theyve been closed since march 20th, its been a month or so. People are excited to be here. I talked to a woman who drove from another county, she said beaches are therapy for people like her. I can show you the scene this morning, even though its cloudy and hazy, you can see its fairly crowded. Theres a couple folks here close to us where theyre sitting. Thats what the mayor of jacksonville says is not allowed. He doesnt want people congregating, sitting and sunbathing or bringing their coolers. What we did see a lot of and what were seeing today is people biking and running and fishing and surfing and swimming. Thats allowed. The mayor considers that essential activity and says its in line with the governors orders. The beach hours are limited from 6 00 a. M. To 11 00 a. M. So they will close soon and reopen again from 5 00 p. M. To 8 00 p. M. So very limited hours. But we talked to folks about why they came here and if they were concerned about social distancing because were not seeing a lot of it, honestly. Take a look at what they said. How does it feel to be back on the beach . Fabulous. We all live on it, so its been torture to be looking at it and not being able to be out here. Reporter what have you been d doing instead . Sewing masks, reading, cooking, eating. Reporter do you think people are social distancing out here . No. Sadly. I wouldnt be surprised if it doesnt last very long. But im just hoping people are kind of smart about it and and just try to stay as far apart as they can and not ruin it for the rest of us. Reporter how does it feel to have the beach open . Its great. We live just over there and weve been waiting for this day to happen. Now i just hope itll stay open. There are so many people standing around, everyone is so close together. I dont know if its a good thing or bad thing, but it cant be worse than being in a golf course or in the Grocery Store. Reporter thats what people are saying. They feel the beaches never should have been closed here. A lot of people we talked to said if you can go to the Grocery Store, the pharmacy, you can come to the beach. But i have noticed nobody here this morning, and only a people we saw, were wearing masks. So people are supposed to social distance, asked to wear masks if the they can in public but wo were not seeing much of that. Can you talk to us about the jacksonville mayor and the reasoning he gave for opening the beaches now . Reporter sure. He says that the number of tests are on the rise here. They can get through a lot of tests. The National Guard is here helping. But there is some conflict with that statement, because the governor is still saying we need more tests. So even though the mayor of jacksonville is saying theres enough tests and the National Guard is here helping out, its questionable if they have enough testing happening. He also points out, theres just 5 of the tests here are positive, which he says is a low for a metropolitan area in florida. So he points that out as two good reasons why, as he said, this is a path to a normal life. Thank you so much for the report there. Lets go from florida to new york. Because obviously there are some states feeling they are able to reopen, others such as new york, not so. Lets go to christina alecia in new york there. What are we hearing from the governor . Sometimes optimism but also balancing with the challenges ahead. Reporter thats right, victor. He is giving the news and the facts to new yorkers very straight here. Hes saying, look, the virus can be undercontrol in the state because of the mitigation efforts weve seen hospitalization stabilize, weve seen icu admissions stabilize, but 2,000 people are still walking into the hospitals around the state every day with covid and the numbers of deaths in new york is refusing to come down. Those are the very those are the very words the governor has used. So it feels, to most new yorkers, that its premature to talk about reopening the state, getting back to some semblance of normalcy. However, like other states across the country, new york is trying to balance, you know, keeping people safe and getting the economy up and running. And in order for that to happen, really two things are necessary, more testing and more money. The states across the country asking for 500 billion, just to put that into perspective, you might think the government has already passed 2 trillion in stimulus funds, a lot of that money did not go to the states. It actually went to Unemployment Benefits and Small Business lending and rescuing the airlines. It didnt flow directly to the states, which are now being tasked with this massive undertaking of doing more testing and Governor Cuomo is saying, essentially, because President Trump is putting the responsibility on the states to do this testing that hes passing the buck, which arguably should be with the federal government, without passing the bucks. So we have this Health Crisis going on, but soon were going to have a financial and economic crisis and that is going to require way more funding and support for the states. Thank you so much. So lets go to nebraska, a state banning gatherings of more than ten people but theres an outlet Shopping Mall planning to reopen next week. Well speak to the owner later in the hour. In california, about 30,000 cases of confirmed covid19, nearly 1,000 people have died. The local economy is also troubled there. L. A. Mayor Eric Garcetti says that fewer than half of residents in l. A. County still have jobs. The federal Paycheck Protection Program was supposed to help through the crisis but its run out of money. Congressman, thanks for being with us this morning. Its my pleasure. Let me start with ppp. Two weeks, 350 billion already gone through, the administration wants another quarter trillion dollars, democrats want an exchange, money for state and local budgets, hospitals, food stamp programs. Where are those negotiations this this weekend . The negotiations are going on daytoday every day, were Holding Strong to make sure the money gets into the pockets of individual families, Small Businesses. We trusted the sba to do the right thing. And on the first 349 billion, too much of the money made it to the bigger businesses and the small mom and pop stores on main street are hurting right now. So were Holding Strong to make sure we hold the sba accountable and the money gets to where the law said it should go. We heard from Business Owners as they were trying to apply for this support, loans eventually if used as expected will be forgiven and turned into grants, who say they cannot wait and every week this goes on, puts into jeopardy their ability to stay in business. What do you say to those who dont care, other than getting the money they need to pay their employees that maybe the rest of it should be in another bill . What do you say to those who need some help now . Unfortunately, sba put too much money into the larger businesses and the businesses that have been 80, 90 , 100 effected, all of their employees are on the streets without a job, those companies weve been getting a rash of calls saying we cant get through, but oddly enough, the Bigger Company that is have relationships with these sba lenders got their money in the bank before these other companies could get an answer as to whether or not their application was being accepted or not. Its important we hold this administration accountable. Unfortunately Congress Today has to write the language much more prescriptive than ever before because we cant trust this administration to get back to us on a daytoday basis, weekly basis, some of the answers they havent answered to congress, much less the american people. Let me ask about the priorities in the next response bill, infrastructure is one for you. You also talk about pension relief. This was actually part of the negotiation for the 2. 2 trillion bill that was passed last month. Multicompany plans in jeopardy if companies go under and they cant pay into the funds to support retirees and workers. What specifically do you want in this bill as it relates to pension relief . Pensions are a big part of our economy. You know the baby boomer bubble is huge. We have a lot of seniors across america that depend on their pensions and local Grocery Store depends on that pension from that senior, and all of the local businesses. So its really important we get this right. What the democrats have been trying to do is weve been trying to negotiate with the this administration for the last three and a half years and they dont want to hear it, deal with it. But we have to deal with that. One more topic here that you highlight. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 25 to 30,000 Health Care Workers in the u. S. Are Daca Recipients and you, several other democratic members of the house, theres a letter sent over from more than a dozen democrats in the senate who are calling for the president to automatically extend their work authorization. Clearly we need every Health Care Worker we can get, some of the offices they need to get documents are closed or are closed to the public. Are you making progress with the administration . And give us an idea how close you are to getting any progress with that with dhs. Were trying to make progress with the administration, its just not going very far because they dont respect the fact if youre in the country, working hard, paying taxes, they think you dont deserve what every other taxpayer deserves but many of us do. Theyre part of our economy, infrastructure, like you mentioned they are on the front lines, they are nurses and doctors and Health Care Workers putting their lives on the line, yet this president believes they should not receive the basic dignity that any other american deserves. The last thing ill say is, testing, testing, testing. If we dont get two plus to three million tests across america a week, our economy is going to suffer. If you get hurt and dont listen to the doctor, say you break your ankle and dont listen, do it the way your doctor prescribed youre going to be limping the rest of your life if you take the cast off too soon. Our economy, its important, we want everybody to get back to work, back to the new normal, but at the same time if they listen to this president and not the doctors, were going to have a longer term problem economically and for the health care of the american people. So lets listen to the experts, please. Congressman coney cardenas, thank you for being with us this morning. Thank you. There are hundreds of workers at Meat Processing plants that are sick across the u. S. Now were getting reports some have actually dyied. How worker safety is being addressed now. Plus workers are working to develop an accurate Antibody Test to see if coronavirus patients develop some or grow some immunity to the virus. But some Health Officials cautious the results are not yet reliable. Well ask two experts working on antibody studies what they think. Into a smaller life . Are your asthma treatments just not enough . Then see what could open up for you with fasenra. It is not a steroid or inhaler. It is not a rescue medicine or for other eosinophilic conditions. Its an addon injection for people 12 and up with asthma driven by eosinophils. Nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. Fasenra is designed to target and remove eosinophils, a key cause of asthma. It helps to prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and can reduce the need for oral steroids like prednisone. Fasenra may cause allergic reactions. Get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. Dont stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. Tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection, or your asthma worsens. Headache and sore throat may occur. Could you be living a bigger life . Ask an asthma specialist about fasenra. But when allergies attack,f any the excitement fades. Allegra helps you say yes with the fastest nondrowsy allergy relief and turning a half hearted yes, into an all in yes. Allegra. Live your life, not your allergies. Now more than ever, we need the good stuff in life. Brotherhood, attitude, laughter, love. Milk. Love whats real. Hey you, yeah you. I opened a sofi money account and it was the first time that i realized that i could be earning interest back on my money. This is amazing. I just discovered sofi, and im an investor with a diversified portfolio. Who am i . They make you feel like its an honor for them to help you out. Thanks sofi for helping us get our money right. Ok, so, magnificent mile for me i thought i was managing. My moderate to severe Crohns Disease. Yes until i realized something was missing. Me. You ok, sis . My symptoms kept me from being there for my sisters. Flight boarding for flight 2007 to chicago. So i talked to my doctor and learned. Humira is for people who still have symptoms of Crohns Disease after trying other medications. And the majority of people on humira saw significant symptom relief. And many achieved remission in as little as 4 weeks. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections. Serious and sometimes fatal infections, including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Tell your doctor. If youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections. Or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Be there for you, and them. Ask your doctor about humira. With humira, remission is possible. If you cant afford your medicine, abbvie may be able to help. A Union Representative says several employees who tested positive for covid19 at a tyson factory in georgia have died now. The Meat Processing plant in georgia, across the country is impacted by the coronavirus. Natasha chen joins us now. Safety is clearly an issue for workers at these Food Processing plants. Weve seen this in several states. Reporter yeah, this is an example of what youre talking about in georgia and similar processing plants for beef, poultry and pork, about ten plant that is we know have have actually shutdown because of outbreaks but some have decided to stay open and say they are brinksi bringing in extra precautions, such as requiring face masks, doing temperature scans, but in water loo, iowa, two dozen officials called tyson foods asked them to close their facility there after what they see as an outbreak. The company is talking about extra measures theyre taking now for precautions. But already as you mentioned were seeing tragic instances across the country, including one woman who spoke on tuesday about her father whod worked more than three decades at a jbs facility in colorado. Heres what she said about his passing. When i called to let them know that he was sick and to let the rest of the employees know that he was positive for covid19, i got no response. And it really told me that they did not care. And i worried about what other people were at risk. Its too late for my dad, but its not too late for the other employees. Reporter jbs told me they have since spoken with the family after she made that statement. They gave us a statement saying in part we understand and share their anguish. Our condolences are with our fallen friend and his family. While we cannot know for certain how, where or when our team members were infected given the widespread nature of the virus, each case is heartbreaking, our sympathies go out to everyone impacted by this common enemy we all face. Were also hearing that thousands of tests have been sent to facilities like this across the country and at clinics in those areas to try to get more employees tested and do Contract Tracing in order to get a handle on the situation. Victor and christi back to you. Thank you for the report. Appreciate it. I know there are feelings of isolation for all of us and really setting in for people who are elderly in Nursing Homes right now because they cant see the people they love during the pandemic. So theres a Senior Living facility manager who came up with this clever idea. He built this plexi glass box in his garage and placed it outside the Senior Center so residents can interact with visitors. Weve had several Family Member who is didnt think they were going to see their loved ones on birthdays, weve had many, many tears. This is great because we would just be able to wave at him. So now we get a chance to talk to him and see that hes doing well. This is just a fantastic idea. Fantastic idea. There are now several meetings scheduled each day. The cubicle is disinfected between visits. Good for people on both sides of that, isnt it . Yeah. Thats awesome. You know, to think of that, weve seen the video of people sitting at windows and holding up signs at Senior Centers, this is a great option. We talked about Antibody Tests, right they could answer one of the most important questions of coronavirus, do people who get infected therefore become immune . Were talking with two experts working on Antibody Tests of their own to get an update on what theyre learning about it. Stay close. Contactless deliveryfering and setup on all devices.

[ barking ] theres an influential model attacking the pandemic that shows that vermont, west virginia, hawaii could all open in a couple weeks but others may need to wait until late june or early july. Even the earliest states, say hawaii, which is a small epidemic, doesnt seem to be taking off, thats probably the first week of may they could be thinking about it. And were seeing states that shouldnt be thinking about relaxing social distancing right out into mid june. So we have some scrutiny on Antibody Testing as you might have heard. What role it may play when we get back to our normally daily lives here. The tests could reveal whether someone has been infected in the past and if they have been, have they developed antibodies to the disease. So far only four tests have received emergency use authorization by the fda, there are other studies under way, though. One study involves volunteers from across major league baseball. The r the researchers leading it say its the largest study. And theres a finger pick blood test at home, its a yearlong study funded by the state legislature in north carolina. Dr. Jay bedchrara is with us, as well as dr. Jack khan. Thank you both for being here. Dr. Chang id like to start with you, in terms of the tests that youre doing. Help us understand, if you are tested and if you show that you have had that you have antibodies, does that immediately equate to you being immune . Thats a great question, christi, thats the purpose of doing the study with wake forest is to answer that question. Right now we dont know the answer to that question and we have to do more studies. But we do use some of the information we know about other coronaviruss, like the sars 1 virus that happened years ago we know then people have immunity for months and years so we hope to answer that question with our wake forest study. When we talk about the test with major league baseball, whats the value of testing those people specifically . The value is to get to know how widespread the disease is. The antibodies, as you said, provide evidence that you had a previous infection or a current infection. The current case counts depends on having the virus active in you. So you undercount the people who have the virus and cleared it. As my colleague just said, it doesnt necessarily provide evidence of immunity, thats to be determined but it provides evidence of how widespread the disease is, which is necessary for forecasting where we are in the epidemic and how deadly the virus is. If people, it turns out, are building an immunity, if they have had this virus and recovered, how does that shape, then, the models being tested and are being crafted and the plans, actually, that are being crafted to get the country to reopen and bring some more normalcy back . I think if we have the evidence that antibodies mean that you are immune or partially immune to becoming infected, we can think about sending people with those antibodies back to work. Im a practicing an tea teaseologist, if i had antibodies i may interact with the patients who had the covid19. You can imagine that may also be the case for people that work in factories and warehouses. If they have the antibody and it shows to provide immunity, its a great way to open our country back up slowly. Dr. Jay you said last month that you are astounded that states were closing the economy by the way based on the fact we didnt have a clear picture of mortality rates. Based on now with the veracity virus, how unpredictable it is, what else should the country have done . Im more interested in what to do now. I think we need to know how widespread the virus is. The sorts of population level surveys of antibody presence in populations will help us answer that question. That will inform policy in a way that weve we just we need these answers we need to know how widespread it is. Ive been working in santa clara and Los Angeles County on the mlb study looking at how common the antibodies are in people across the country. Once we have those answers i think well be in a better position to answer what the policy should be. On wednesday the fda approved the fourth Antibody Test. How confident are you in the reliability of what we see in front of us right now . So we take the liability of our test seriously, were analyzing our tests in house and partnered with others, well be evaluating how accurate our tests are when performed by a layperson at home. Accuracy is important for us and we take it seriously at scan well. Dr. Jay, help us adjust our expectations here. I was listening to the professor talk about how he believes the world we knew before all of this happened is not going back to that until the year 2022. When you look at a time line here, do you see that as being accurate . I guess what you mean by normal. I think we cant go back to a system where were not systematically scanning the population for these kind of viruses and getting a picture on what the nature of the epidemic is, well need to do that considerably. Will we go back to normal activity . Yeah, i dont think its likely to be 2022. The question is will we be more cautious, will people wash their hands more frequently . Will flu vaccinations go up . I think itll be yes, to all of that. The question for me is, what Information Base are we going to use when making decisions about opening and closing. To me the most important number is how extensive the disease is, and secondarily, as a result of knowing that you can answer how deadly it is. We need those numbers and im working hard to try to understand the disease and epidemic by getting those numbers. Dr. Jiang what do you need to see to reopen the country . We know testing and Contact Tracing are two big elements here that people say we cant do it without those two things . I think athome tests like the one scan well is working on will be important for this. The reason because testing at home prevents people from going out and transmitting the virus or becoming infected themselves. It also frees up our physical Health Care Facilities which are currently overwhelmed in many states. Lastly, when youre testing at home yourself, a Health Care Worker doesnt have to put on personal protective equipment to test you, which we know is in short supply right now. Thank you both for being with us today. We appreciate your expertise. Best of luck. Thank you. Thank you. Still to come, a Shopping Mall in nebraska is going to start the process of reopening. A soft opening next week, despite the growing number of cases of covid19 in the state. We have the owner of the outlet mall with us next.

Their work keeps food on americans tables of course. Farming communities are facing their own Coronavirus Crisis right now. Reporter agra business communities suffering, unemployment 5. 3 . This is santa paula, population 30,000. At this food share event everybody driving up to get a box of free food and a bag of produce. And the people saying theyre seeing a lot of new faces. People who never before needed that helping hand. Its work furloughs, its reduced hours. Its actually losing their job. Its a combination of all of those that is causing people to have to go out and wait in line to get their food. I work at the school district, i work for the afterschool program, since the kids arent in school, im not in school. Since the kids arent back in school i probably wont be back until august. Reporter the growers in the community said people arent demanding their produce, not the restaurants, not the stores. We came upon one farmer who had to hack up a bunch of celery and leave it in the field because there was no one to buy it. Its not going into the garbage, its going back into the ground it puts nutrients back into the ground but its an expensive way to do that. Were only doing special orders, so our employees are working less hours and less days. Im married and have three kids. So its been hard for us to provide like some food. Because we have to some bills to pay. We have to pay the rent. Reporter food share here in Ventura County says they are in this for a long haul, but the numbers are unprecedented. The money they need to raise the most ever, the people coming through the lines also the most ever. When that will end is still anyones guess so in the meantime they continue to try to feed anybody who needs that box of food. Back to you now, christi, victor. Paul, thank you so much. Listen, we asked and you answered, and were so grateful for that. Were going to share what your fellow viewers are saying about how life has changed since this pandemic, and what quarantine is teaching us. [spoken] during the pandemic, its important to keep your immune system strong and diet plays a big part in that. Jacqueline howard tells us which foods can help us do just that. Reporter studies linked having a Good Gut Health with boosting your immunities. All natural yogurts and garlic have a powerful effect on your immune system. Garlic is a source of a mineral that plays a role in protecting against cell damage, it can also be found in broccoli, sardine and enriched breads. And another study shows go for bone broths, it can help ease systems of infections. And think zinc and of course vitamin c. Oranges are full of the tried and true vitamin but it can also be found in green vegetables. Lastly, drinking fluids, especially water, can help your body flush out waste and keep its temperature normal. By staying hydrated youre creating the optimal environment for your immune system.

Ive been taking prevagen for about three years now. People say to me periodically, man, youve got a memory like an elephant. Its really, really helped me tremendously. Prevagen. Healthier brain.

So abbott is getting new tests into their hands, delivering the critical results they need. And until this fight is over, we. Will. Never. Quit. Because they never quit. The governor of nebraska asking people to stay home. And the number of cases in the state, theyre growing. Just this week cases jumped nearly 30 . Right now, the state has more than 1,100 cases of covid19 and 24 deaths. Now the owner of the outlet mall said the experience will be a case study of best practices for other malls to reopen. The owner of nebraska crossing, the outlet mall is with us on the phone now. Rod, thanks for joining us. Thank you, victor, appreciate you having us on. Let me start here, nebraska is not one of the four states that scientists highlighted as potentially opening in may. Does not meet the cdcs gating criteria to meet phase one of the reopen. Why reopen a mall next week . Thank you for the question. And obviously theres been a lot of discussion with kind of what were trying to accomplish with this. But the malls been closed down for about four or five weeks now, and what we decided to do is we started thinking about all of our retail brands in the center, we have nike, and under armour and coach and kate spade and a lot of great global brands. What we started thinking about if we were in the board room of those stores or brand, what its going to be like to get stores opened. So we decided lets think about a soft opening. So what a soft opening means for next week is most of the employees have been furloughed and laid off, so the process of reopening a store can take up to four to six weeks. So we looked at where things are headed and may be a good time to get the mall up and running, but you have to have a soft opening to start getting the stores back trained, start developing best practices so we started working with our retail brands to look at nebraska as a case study of how youre going to interact with stores, brands, landlords to create a safe environment. Let me ask you this, i hate to jump in but were low on time. When you say the mall has been closed, i understand that it really has not been closed. There was at least one store still operating, a uniform store, but its the corporate officials who decided to close their stores, you didnt officially close them all, so whats your degree of confidence that nike, that colehan, other stores will open in may when you have the grand reopening . Its up to them. As a landlord our role is to create a venue thats safe for customers and employees. We dont control what happens in the four walls, all i control is the venue. Were trying to create the venue where the stores can reopen. I dont see many Stores Opening on the 24th. What i see happening is them starting the rehiring process, starting to develop the best practices they need to do for the economy. I see limited stores open on the 24th. We had uniform destinations stay open, they were serving the nursing and medical markets which was great were glad they did that. Then we had a number of brands using the stores as Fulfillment Centers for online orders. Thats how we interacted in nebraska since we didnt have a stayathome order, the employee could work out of the back of the store and fulfill online orders. Two things, you didnt have a stayathome order but the governor urged 21 days to stay home and healthy, that ends on april 30th, six days after your socht opening. And the president of the medical Health Association said it poses a serious risk of health of all nebraskans. Rod yates, i wish we had more time. Thank you for spending time with us this morning.

Economy amid the coronavirus outbreak. Governors are now revealing plans to reopen their states following new guidelines from the white house. President trump says the ultimate decision will be left to governors once they have enough tests. The governors are responsible for testing and i hope theyre going to be able to use this tremendous amount of available capacity that we have. Its up to 1 million additional tests per week. When you think of that, in the next few weeks well be sending out 5. 5 million testing swabs to the state. But medical experts warn the u. S. Is still lagging way
