The pandemic. The night line interview begins right now. I know this is your first trip back out into the country in quite some time. And youve said that the decision to open the economy is the biggest decision ive ever had to make. How do you, and i suppose this is the central question. How do you save livelihoods without risking more lives . . Well, i think actually, the decision to close the country was the biggest decision ive ever had to make. And i said that very loud and clear. We had the greatest economy in history, in the history of the world. Best employment numbers, best numbers in every single way. And they said, sir, we have to close the country. I said what are you talking about close the country, because nobodys ever heard of such a thing. And we saved millions of lives by doing it and by putting the ban on china very early. It was a big thing. But the biggest decision ive ever had to make is closing the country, and certainly, this is also now a big decision, but the pe
Pretty comfortable at 7 00 73 to 78. Well turn the corner here and take a look at what is going on with traffic and bring jobina in. Good morning. Good morning, mike. Thank you. Im following a serious situation in santa clara right now. A sig alert issued on northbound 101 and ill bring in the maps here so you can see the area just around 4 30 this morning. The entire, all of the northbound lanes were shut down where you see that purple line there. That indicates a full closure and i did get an update from the chp and they did open two lanes and now two lanes blocked and two lanes opened. Unfortunately, it looks like a pedestrian was hit by a vehicle. This is a deadly situation. So, a coroner has been called out to the scene. They do not have an estimated time as to when all lanes will reopen, so this is a death investigation. So, they expect it to take a while. Expect delays, but you will be able to get through. Ill send it over to you, kumasi. Thank you, jobina. Developing now, were
There a day. Julian glover, abc7 news. Thank you, julian. Not keep people from celebrating Cinco De Mayo. A crowd packed the lots and this is the same place where a crowd gathered on saturday. Officers came to enforce social distancing and the cars came back about an hour after that and after that the officers came back, too. They wont stay away. Theyll break it up, theyll take off, theyll come back. Theyll find another spot. It will just be like a cat and mouse game all day, all night.

Now its just a matter of getting parents to sign on. I think many parents are afraid to bring their child back to child care facilities until the shelterinplace order is lifted. Also, many parents moved out of the city for this period of time. Child care centers have been able to remain open for families of essential workers or children in vulnerable groups. This new government web portal lists all available centers. As more parents go back to work, at seabird, they said its not their responsibility to check a parents work status. We have availabilities.

That just tells you that different providers have very specific circumstances to deal with before they can open, despite directives that they are allowed to open. Am marks dan . Chris, so if
