The board of rabbis can you talk a little bit about what the board is and its function. Perhaps even your vision for the future as our current president. Sure the board of the Northern California has a very wide geographic area. We spanned from the oregon border in the north to eastern border of california and going over into nevada around reno and lake tahoe.

Confirmed cases of covid19 in San Francisco. Sadly, we have 20 people who passed away as a result of the virus. As a reminder, datasf. Org covid19 is where you can find details to find out who is actually infected as well as those who have been tested. I want to be clear from the very beginning when we heard about what was happening with the coronavir coronavirus, specifically in wuhan, china, sadly there were a lot of xenophobia of those in our asian community. This virus is not discriminating on the basis of race. Sadly, the xenophobia continues.

Its basic vital statistics, that if a person dies, even in the confines of the city, but has a permanent address somewhere else, that death is reported in that jurisdiction. Next question is from jany harr, associated press. How much outside room time is given daily to people in hotel rooms recovering from covid19 . Do they get smoke breaks . Dr. G
