We are hearing from the operator of a bay area nursing home where nine patients have died from coronavirus. Parks are closed this weekend across much of the bay area following the shelter in place order. And dozens of people test positive for coronavirus at San Franciscos largest shelter. It is just about 6 00 a. M. On this saturday, april 11th. Lets start with a check of the weather in the Weather Center with darren. No rain this weekend. Nice change. The first one after three in a row before this. What we have is a cloudy start to the day. I want you to take a look from our view on Treasure Island looking back at the city. This is a good gauge of how cloudy it is and how low the clouds are. You can see the top of the Sales Force Tower sticking up through there them. As far as the temperatures go, relatively nice out there. Low to mid50s out there for most locations. Looking at futurecast, expect the clouds to stick around for most bay area locations until we get into the afternoon today or early afternoon. And as far as the way it will feel, daytime highs today will be quite nice. Mid to upper 60s. Once we get the breaks of sun in the early afternoon, it is a pretty day. Main thing to keep in mind, cloudy morning. No rain this weekend at all. And there is even a warmup by next week. I will have more on that in a few minutes. For now, devon, back over to you.

Reporter his wife of 65 years, diane, is still trying to get answers from the Skilled Nursing facility. It is a true nightmare. They put us on hold and they say we will transfer you to the nurses station. We are shorthanded. And we would wait and wait. Reporter many Family Members say they found out about the outbreak on the news. No communication from gateway. Oust the roughly 65 residents, Alameda CountyPublic Health says nine have died. 32 tested positive. 25 Staff Members also infected. Why are they saying there is no communication from you guys . Thats a very good question. I certainly wish i knew because we are reaching out to all family now. Reporter john cell with gateway say they keep families up to date. I dont know where there is a miscommunication between you and them. But between us we have an open door policy. Reporter the state cited gateway for dozens of violations and even denied applications to operate new facilities. They say that violations are common in the industry. For the families saying you failed their loved ones, what do you say to those families. First of all, i would love to talk with them. I know our administrator is available to them. Reporter many families say the Health Department should take over. Here is our dilemma with this. I think we want the facilities to work with us and to follow our recommendations. If the facilities think were not coordinating well with them, they might not report to us. Reporter diane says she wont shia way from seeking answers and justice. Im 86 years old but im going to fight with every part of my energy for this to never happen again to anybody. Reporter in hayward, im da lynn, kpix5. He tells us his grandmother is one of the latest patients to test positive. Paramedics rushed her to kaiser in san leandro yesterday morning. A nursing facility in san jose is bringing in outside staff to help with its outbreak. 27 people have tested positive at the ridge post, formerly called Mount PleasantNursing Center on clayton road.

They will also use the ship mercy in los angeles and seven other facilities to house patients that dont need acute care. This is a critical weekend to stay home across the area. The bay area is shutting down streets to support social distancing. You are looking at 74 miles of street that will be closed to through traffic starting today. It will last until the end of the shutdown. They will be open for bicyclists and pedestrians to stretch out and get fresh air. Popular parks and parking lots are shutting down across the bay area to enforce the stay at home area. Katie neilson on why this easter weekend will be a major test in our fight against the virus. Reporter the trails here at mission peak in fremont will be closed from the stanford avenue entrance because the holiday weekend, combined with the great forecasted weather the next couple of days could lead to overcrowding. Easter weekend is the busiest of the year for east bay regional parks. This is the year that we ask you to give up easter in your traditional way of picnics and things like that. Reporter parks leaders say people are doing a good job of social distancing once theyre on the trails but it is getting there that is the problem. The parking and getting through the gates. Think of how many people touch the gates. Reporter the bay area has not seen an extreme spike in the coronavirus cases due to the early success of social distancing. Thats what makes this weekend so difficult for so many people. They want to get outside and spend time with loved ones and friends. The weather is nice. The problem is that we think that the virus is still circulating in the population. Reporter if people let their guard down for a weekend, everything could change. If people dont continue social distancing, we will see a spike of infection in about 1014 days. And perhaps an increase in hospitalizations and very sick people another week after that. Reporter thats why the most popular parks will close parking lots and bathrooms. A decision that brings mixed reaction from people who use the spaces. In order to keep us safe and sound, weve got to follow the rules and give each other a little extra room. The whole thing seems like an overreaction. Limit the number of people is a good idea. Reporter the closures are supposed to be just for the weekend. But if they see overcrowding, they will be forced to take more longterm action. Katie neilson, kpix5. Santa clara county is looking into complaints that valley Nursing Center didnt notify them of a case amongst the staff. The allegations were first reported by the los angeles times. A whistleblower complaint says that four nurses tested positive after another worker died last month with coronavirus symptoms. County executive jeff smith tells the San Jose Mercury news that the county is investigating whether the employees death was in fact related to the virus. San francisco officials are scrambling to contain an outbreak at that citys biggest shelter. As kpix reports, some officials saithe they actually saw this coming weeks ago. Reporter shelter had two cases on sunday. Five cases on wednesday. And now 70. An example of how quickly the virus can spread. And a lot of people saw this coming. An outbreak has occurred at msc south, one of our shelters. 70 people. 68 members of the shelter as well as two Staff Members who have tested positive for covid 19. Reporter the largest shelter in San Francisco is now functioning as a ward for the infected, with medical staff on hand in case anyone gets seriously ill. Many have Chronic Health conditions and are vulnerable to getting very sick or even dying from coronavirus. Reporter the announcement of the outbreak comes after a weeks long dispute how to shelter the citys homeless. We need to move people into hotels now. It is inevitable that we will have outbreaks in all of the shelters. It was inevitable and preventible. A month ago i was yelling and screaming and demanding of them to move these people out of that environment. Reporter supervisor matt haney warns it has implications beyond the shelter. If you think this is just about unhoused or homeless people, you have it wrong. People who are unhoused or homeless interact regularly with people who are not. The potential for this to spread from large crowded shelters to the street, to people who are housed, to impact people close to you and me and who we know is huge. Reporter that possibility now has the city doing detective work to figure out what kind of spread the outbreak might be causing beyond shelter doors. This is a 24hour aroundthe clock situation and the situation and numbers are changing. Reporter 71 people have tested negative from the shelter and moved away from it now as the investigation goes on into how many more people might have been infected by this outbreak. Those who are infected will remain in that shelter, being presided over by medical staff. Wilson walker, kpix5. California is making Good Progress in flattening the coronavirus curve. They emphasize that a continuation of physical distancing is crucial. Dr. Mark gally showed charts with county by county trends. They all had downward movement. That is the positive effect of the stay at home orders and he says we cant let up now. This is signaling to us that our peak may not end up being as high as we planned around and expected. And that the difference between what were seeing today in our hospitals may not be that much different than where we will peak in the many weeks to come. Being home over this coming weekend is of vital importance for all of us. It is a way to protect our communities, protect our neighbors and our families. Governor newsom said nearly 3,000 people are in california hospitals right now for coronavirus. Thats on the lower end of what models had predicted earlier.

They ask me how im doing. Reporter but a volunteer from nonprofit heart of the valley. A lot of them really dont have anybody. Reporter before the pandemic, volunteers like cindy would help Senior Citizens in west Santa Clara County with trips to the doctor, the grocery store, home repairs, gardening, pretty much everything. It makes me feel a heck of a lot better. I live by myself. Im retired and on a fixed income and i dont drive and get around much more.

Well, in the weather, the calendar says it is april 11th today. The sky says it is may gray. It will be one of those cloudy starts to the day. The first half of the day we will struggle to see blue sky for the bay area and then things clear out. First here is your start. Numbers in the low to mid50s for most locations. And you can see the Sales Force Tower is just barely kind of hitting the bottom of that layer of clouds sitting out there over the city. If we go back to the wider view, i can show what you that looks like in terms of how spread the clouds are. You can see it is pretty much the entire bay area. Right now it has clouds. It is one thick to say youre looking up at clouds. It is another thing to say is this an issue on the ground or on the road for fog . To do that we will look underneath the cloud layer, put it into the visibility readings. And this is actually a good sign. All of these numbers telling you ten or nine, theyre telling you how many miles you can see down the roadway. If you can see nine or ten miles down the roadway, there is no issue with the fog. But the clouds are going to stick around for a while. Not until we get to noon today does it start to clear out for some of our incompetent land locations. It is still hanging on for the bay, even the early afternoon and burn back to the coast. And everyone should get a chance to get some clearer sky once we get into the afternoon. All right. Daytime highs today coming into the mid and upper 60s. Thats the overview in terms of the bay area as a whole. Lets get a little more specific here. Come down to the south bay and call out as many communities as we can for our saturday. It will be 70 in campbell today. Sunnyvale going to 68. Fremont will hit 67. We head over to the east bay. Numbers over here are identical. Although far inland you go, we get low 70s here. So places like the delta will make it up to 70, 71. San ramon will hit 67. Bnicia, 67. Berkeley going to 61. Same with richmond. Santa rosa going to 6. Mill valley will go to 64. Splitting the difference. Way up top, plenty of sunshine for Cloverdale Lake by the time we get into the late morning. As a result daytime highs there will climb into the mid70s. For the rest of the 7day forecast, were going to do this again tomorrow. Low clouds fill the bay for Easter Sunday. And then they clear out by the time we get into the late morning, early afternoon. And then you can see there is a warming trend. Look at the daytime highs nearing 80 by the time we get to tuesday. No rain. No rain this weekend. Maybe a small hint of a possibility by next weekend. But it just doesnt look impressive enough to put anything on the 7day forecast. We will take a closer look at that one as the week goes on. Yeah. Emergency managers said they were especially worried about sunday because they said it is easter. Yeah. They really expected the weather to be really nice. Yeah. And people might be tempted to go out. The weather is going to be really nice. You have to find that balance. Thats right. It will be tough to look out the window and see the beautiful wea
