San francisco added 39 cases, now at 622. While cases in Alameda County grew to more than 600. Here are the latest cases in lake and mendocino counties for our viewers there. Lake county reported two cases since sunday. Mendocino county reports four cases. And we are charting the total number of local cases on to this graph so we can take a look at the trend. This includes data for 14 counties, the bay are and beyond. And we showed a graph like that because were concerned about the peak. Can our medical systems handle the surge of cases . Do we have enough time to prepare . And what half . We have Team Coverage tonight. David louie looks at what life could be life post pandemic. But first, lets hear from abc7 news anchor liz kreutz about the latest projections showing we could reach the peak just one week from today. Liz . Dan, thats right. The state officials have been saying our peak will come in may, but a separate new updated projection shows we might hit that peak next week. We talked to a ucsf expert about it. We keep asking is california out of the woods. Experts say not yet, but all of the evidence would say that were on that flat curve that weve been talking about for a month or so, thats it. That good news comes from dr. Bob wachter, ucsfs medicine. He has been chronicling the daily fight on twitter. This, updated projections from university of washington researchers about californias peak. When the largest amount of patients will be coming threw our states hospitals. Initially they projected californias peak would be at the end of april. Now they say it will likely be next wak its not only when it happens, but its how high it is. And just as importtly shift in the date was the number of patients that theyre expecting. It was about half of what hey had projected a few weeks ago. Thats largely in part to all of us and our early shelter in place efforts. So whats it going to take for life to resume and get back to normal . Researchers recently outlined four key indicators in order to move on the phase two. They say states must show, one, a sustained reduction of cases for at least 14 days. Two, that hospitals have capacity to treat patients safely without crisis standards of care. Three, that authorities are able to test everyone who has symptoms. And four, that they have the ability to monitor confirm cases and trace those that are infeced. But even phase 2 isnt a complete return to normalcy. We get to a new phase, its a little bit more nuanced. Its like okay, some people can go back to work because theyre se nusinhat community or cases. And we talk about the peak. California is having a peak later than some other hot spots because we have had a more gradual company as opposed to a big spike. That means we have not been necessarily able to overwhelm our health care systems. So its been good news. Live from home, liz kreutz, abc7 news. Thankfully thats been the case. Elected leaders and Health Care Workers continue to struggle with the surge in covid19 cases, our minds wonder when life return to normal or will it . David louie continue ours live Team Coverage looking at what lies ahead for all of us. He is live working from home tonight. David . Hi, dan. There are fatalists who have accepted what cards were dealt, and there are futurists who try to pave the way for a time when covid19 either disappears or is addressed with a vaccine. The virus has exposed our shortcomings, but it also presents an opportunity to shape life after this pandemic. People talk about going back to norma the normal wasnt noal the normal wasnt good. Marina gorbis is executive director of instutr e future in palo alto, which over its 53year history focuses not only on forecasting the future, but also developing innovative solutions. What kind of future do we want to live in . What kind of future do we want to create, and what can we do to promote that vision of that desirable future . Covid19 has disrupted what we thought was normal. She says were at the first of three stages. The first is reaction to the crisis. Reset is second when we reassess and evaluate what happened and why. The third is reinvention. For example, the pandemic has revealed weaknesses in Hospital Capacity and gaps in who has health coverage. We conceive it as a private good. What were finding out is there no such thing as private health. My health is dependent on the health of the homeless person im next to. Anc hapod th ne for gnmt wits erable wherec people do not have 400 in savings in case of emergency is unacceptable. The institute is already looking at attrition in the ranks of Health Care Workers, and how california has had to ask retirees to return to help weapon the pandemic crisis.

Were getting n details tonight of a disasterus sprdacr. A Data Analysis from the abc7 news iteam show house hundreds of flights from global hot spots brought travelers right here to the bay area, including sfo. Dan noyes joins us live from home with the story. Dan . Ama, we found hundreds of direct flights that landed at San Francisco international from hot spots like italy and spain in the months the pandemic started, but especially china. The abc7 iteam has analyzed more than 2700 flight records obtained from the tracking Service Flight radar 24. From december through march as the coronavirus outbreak ravaged china, more than 3200 flights left there on direct routes to at least 20 cities across the u. S. 469 flights to San Francisco international alone. Art reingold is head of especially de epidemiology. Yes, i think the data are important, but they basically reinforce something we already knew, which is if an infectious agent arises in one part of the world, it can move to other parts of the world quickly. Our data shows 50 direct flights to sfo from wuhan, the chinese metropolis where the outbreak is believed to have started in wild animal meat market. The precise number of infected passengers who came to the u. S. Is unclear. Such massive travel meant the flow of the virus here probably came quickly after beginning spread in china. Were talking about infectious agents inside people. And when the people travel, they take their infectious agents with them. President trump has repeatedly said his move to limit travel from china saved countless live. We did it very early. A lot of people thought we shouldnt have done it that early. The president ordered travel ban january 31st. But our Analysis Shows in february and march, at least 400 more flights direct from chinese airports to American Cities as the outbreak took hold in the u. S. Art reingold tells me blocking flights may have briefly helped stem the tide. But the reality is we already had multiple introductions of the virus into the United States, and the fundamntal problem is even once we knew the virus was here, we have not had a coordinated effective approach to dealing with it. Our data shows that weve had flights in the past few months from countries that were hot spots like italy and spain. That was 65 flights from spain, one from italy before the federal government shut down all air travel from europe. For the iteam, dan noyes, abc7 news. Dan, ama . Okay, dan, thank you so much. Well, its back. Today the grand princess cruise ship returned to San Francisco. Drew view 7 was there for its arrival. So was sky 7, in fact.

After disembarking all patients and passengers, the ship floated into the bay while the remaining crew completed their quarantine and then departed. One organization, the National Alliance for filipino concerns is outraged that the crew is still on board, calling it inhumane. Abc7 News Reporter luz pena is live at pier 35 with the story tonight.

Were very concerned about their health and safety, because theyve been on this ship now for more than a month. And those concerns intensified. On april 3, a Filipino Crewmember from the grand princess cruise ship died of coronavirus in a San Francisco hospital. A day te on april 4, hundreds of crewmembers who remain on the ship completed their quarantine period, but theyre still not going very upsetting. For one worker to die here in the San Francisco bay area, that should have never happened. Over a month ago, 19 crewmembers and two passengers a board the grand princess tested positive for covid19. Lo they were among passengers who had to be confined to their cabins. What got them through that was the kindness of the crewmembers. I know there was one gentleman who worked in one of the gift shops in the watch shop. He lives in china. He cant go home. Grand Princess Cruises confirmed theyre working with governments and the return of their crew. So far 438 crew workers were returned home, and they added the health and safety of our crew remains a top priority. Prior to the crew quarantine, testing was done on any crewmembers who showed symptoms of covid19. Crew with symptoms were medically disembarked or isolated on board until they met the cdcs definition for recovery. We just felt there was an end in sight for them. The grand princess has also confirm theyd have one crewmember in isolation still for covid19. That person will remain in isolation until april 9. The grand princess is expected to leave this port within the next 24 hours. In San Francisco, luz pena, abc7 news. Luz, thank you.
