We dont do that in america. I know. Because theres a huge distance between that kind of invasion and the stuff im talking about, which is stuff that we can control. We can control muni. We can arguably vote bart. Theres a huge difference between monitoring people on their cell phones that we do not do and will not accept in our culture and what you are recommending. Can you bring that together quickly now, sir. I would say the key issue is for us to minimize, to the extent possible, nonessential travel, including locally and we dont have a campaign to do that right now. Becausbecause what happens is tt this is so massive, so massive, that a lot of the enforcement happens from the peer pressure and they see what other people are doing. So at this moment, even for this order, we dont have a Massive Campaign yet to really, really enforce how important it is to not be out. As the chief Health Official of this town, who is not dr.

Peskin. Ill just call you. Supervisor preston. Just one question regarding some shelters that are not 24 hours, so, for example, in my district the first friendship emergency family shelter where folks have to leave at 7 00 in the morning i know that theres other shelters that dont operate 24 hours. And im curious if theres been any effort underway under the circumstances to try to have shelters that are less than 24 hours to be a resource during the day as well . Yes. Thank you for that question. I couldnt have scripted this discussion any better. We are working on that and trying to get all shelters that are currently not open 24 hours, including first friendship, to stay open and to provide three meals a day. So thats in the process and i dont know the status of that, but thats our intention is that all shelters stay open 24 7 and theres only a few that do not and so it shouldnt be too big of a lift. Thank you. President yee okay, i think that is it. Thank you very much,. Thank you
