We see that increasingly with the apple, for example. I think this is techs opportunity, if they can partner with healthcare, if they can really start to help out the public, this could perhaps be there moment to really shine and come through. David the violence hasnt just been equities this week. It has also been in bonds. Taylor that has been very volatile. I was making a note earlier that you have to get the liquidity in order in order to see any sort of small rally that we might be trying to get to within the equity market.

Accidents tend to be more sensing 911 services and respond to priority one calls. Serious when the roads are wide inmate bookings at jails are down. Police add that theyre making open like this. 7 01. Back to the desk. Thank you. An effort to keep the the bay area now has more coronavirus from entering and spreading through the jails.

Difficult theres a Navigation Center right behind me with the governor wants to do is to spend million get 100 million of that million to local governments because they know their needs intimately to make sure that the homeless are taken care of because when theyre taken care of he believes society as a whole will be much better because at any given time in california 108,000 people are homeless said he believes unless they are taken care of about 12,000 of them could be sent to the hospital either because are exposed to coronavirus or test positive for coronavirus and could overrun the hospital and all the workers which is why lets face it thats where we have in the shelter in place to flatten the curve and if you dont take care of the homeless according to the governor it can really spike in overwhelm are already overwhelmed systems and thats why he wants to get his hands on as many rooms from hotels and motels to send the homeless there because then theyll have social distance, here
