Welcome everybody to todays hybrid hearing. Pursuant to house rules, some members will appear in person and others will appear remotely via webx. Some members are appearing in person. Let me first remind everyone that pursuant to the latest guidance from the attending physician, all individuals attending the hearing in person must wear a face mask unless you are speaking. Members not wearing a face mask will not be recognized. Let me also make a few reminders for these members appearing in person. You will only see members and witnesses appearing remotely on the monitor in front of you when they are speaking in what is known as webx as active speaker view. The timer is visible in the room directly in front of you. For members appearing remotely, i know you are all familiar with webx by now, but let me remind you of a few points. First, you will be able to see each person speaking during the hearing, whether they are in person or remote, as long as you have your webx set to active speak

Smallerriers Like Hawaiian Airlines at s. F. O. And has unsustainable increases for our carrier. In addition to that i want to point out some specific burdens that exist with respect to the h. W. O. Very rarely in any job marketplace can you find plans that are available to employees at no cost, let alone to entire families at no cost. The h. W. O. Mandate coverage is so far beyond what even the most generous employers offer their employees, including the city of San Francisco, with their own employees. Specifically Hawaiian Airlines and our workforce is highly unionized and we negotiate collective bargaining agreements which are voted upon and approved by employees that include generous wage and benefit packages. We do not believe that this legislation should supersede our collective bargaining agreements or interfere with our relationships with our labor partners. Thank you again for another opportunity to weigh in on such a monumental decision. I strongly urge you to oppose the ordi

Thank you. That passes. Item three is the directors report. Commissioners, grant colfax, the health director. A few things in the directors report. We had the pleasure of participating in an announcement with senator scott wiener and mayor breed with reintroducing the Safe Injection Sites. The senator plans to reintroduce this bill in december. As you know that Safe Injection Sites have been a priority for the department and in alignment with mayor breeds priorities. We need these evidencebased proven interventions more than ever as fentanyl continues its uncrease in San Francisco and we have estimated that weve had more than 470 Overdose Deaths in the first month of 2020. And so this is a muchneeded intervention and it remains a priority and able to participate with the senator and the mayor in announcing the fact that that the bill will be reintroduced. We continue to encourage everyone in the city to get a flu shot now more than ever. This is certainly not the year to skip on a flu
