About its new travel quarantine, which was just rereclarified again by the county in the past hour. Nbc bay areas robert handa was at todays announcement and why its so crucial to get moving on it. Reporter the race is on as the Public Health Department Works to keep its vaccine and quarantine plans on track, even as covid cases surge. Whether its a vaccine or a travel quarantine, its all about trying to stop what Public Health calls a chain of transmission. The latest numbers show parts of the south bay running out of hospital beds. We are especially concerned because none of the hospitals serving south county and East San Jose had more than five icu beds available as of yesterday. Reporter the downy submitted its vaccine plan to the state detailing how it will distribute and administer vaccinations.

270 are needed to win the electoral college. Six states, alaska, arizona, georgia, nevada, North Carolina and pennsylvania rth onare the states that have not been called and will determine who wins the white house. Thanks for joining us. Im ama daetz. Im dan ashley. Lets get to liz kreutz. Dan and ama, patience is the word of the week here, anxiously were awaiting results in five Battle Ground states including pennsylvania. This morning there was hope that we know the outcome of the race by tonight, but as the day has gone on, its looking more and more unlikely and now the president is claiming fraud. As the coup tntry waits on pinsd needles, all eyes are on five states, arizona, nevada, nk ort carolina North Carolina, pennsylvania and georgia.

Georgia has not been called yet. The count continues to arizona, North Carolina and pennsylvania. Liz kreutz has been following the election closely and joins us with a look of the intensifying race for the white house. As you show there, we did just hear from President Trump minutes ago. I think hes still speaking now and hes been tweeting quite a lot over the past 24 hours but this is the first time we seen him publicly since his remarks the night of the election. Once again, hes claiming hes being cheated out of a win. If you count the legal votes, i easily win. If you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us. If you count the votes that came in late, were looking to them very strongly but a lot of votes came in late. Again, we have to say no evidence for this right now. Patience is really the word of the week. Were anxiously awaiting results in those Battle Ground states including pennsylvania. There was hope we would know the outcome tonight. As the day

Good evening, supervisors. I am here standing in solidarity and asking for the defunding of the Sheriffs Department and request it be redirected towards multiple populations and in my work i have had the special opportunity to work for residents and employees who have seen firsthand the negative impact policing has had on our community and life threatening situations. We need to insure that our budget reflects our priorities and embodies the traumainformed approach, increasing policing does not keep the communities safe but additional access, resources and support for our community does. So lets choose prioritizing our community and creating a budget that reflects our values. Thank you so much. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker please. Caller hi. Can you hear me .
