county. and then marine county now growing to 15 solano county 9 sonoma county 6. napa still reporting no cases, however, as you know there probably are that's the whole idea you're supposed to act as if you have the virus that's how you're going to make sure you don't read it. big news when it comes to your kids it looks like it's very likely that they're not going to go back to school for the rest of the year that's where the governor hinted at and kansas has become the first state in the nation to call it for the rest of the year the kids are out of school governor newsome sent a warning about that possibility yesterday kron four's will tran is live with the latest well. it's a warning at this point duryea but it looks like pretty much a done deal, although he will not go there all together. >>yet now many schools, 99% of them right now very about 6 million kids stare home right now because the schools voluntarily send the kids home at least until the first week of april including law high school in san francisco, there is a good chance according to the governor that their kids won't come back. next week a week after their scheduled return date and like you said my naive or return. before the end of the school year giving them the rest of the school year off social distance and the summer to slow down the spread of coronavirus he's working with president trump right now for federal funding because when the kids are not in school that means the school district the school system does not get the money that's why they take attendance every day so as far as the budget that takes a major hit as well but he says that's not his top priority. the top priority for him are the kids including his own kids that he had to tell his daughter that there is a good chance she won't be returning to her friends as well listen in to the governor explained. his rationale. >>let me be candid. this is a very sober thing to say. i can say this with certainty but i can say this quite learned late. don't anticipate schools are going open up in a week please don't anticipate in a few weeks and i say that because one needs to be honest and i need to be accountable to you i want to mislead you to 6 plus million kids and our system and their families they need to make some plans at a time when a lot of plans are already being curtailed the planning with kids some of the most challenging a planning i would plan in assume it's unlikely. that many of these schools, a few if any will open up before the summer break. >>okc just heard the governor said challenging planning, let's face it if you're a parent out there most to you your jobs drop when you found that out because he was already very stressful for 3 weeks off possibly a month and now we're looking at the rest of the school year. the governor is fully aware of that which is why he says if they don't return to the schools, he wants to keep a lot of them open for day care bring in the person now make sure they have social distance and james terry of the reason why he did not slam the door on closing the entire school year because he needs to keep them open because let's face it we've done this story extensively that a lot of low income kids they rely on the schools for food. back to yes they do let's talk about that. well san francisco unified school district is providing 3 meals a day for students. >>during the closure, the pickup sites are open monday through friday from 9 to 10:00am and you don't need any identification or proof of school enrollment. the child though has to be president to get the food. we'll have more details if you go to kron 4 dot com. >>it restores that will be setting aside time for the most vulnerable customers to shop this includes whole foods target safeway stores will be designating a time for the elderly to get the things they need kron 4 sarah stinson live in san francisco with more on that part of the story sarah. >>james i'm live here in the target in san francisco. i can see a employees inside right now stocking up the shelves as you've known, as you know, it's been a race to keep them stocked because customers have been panic buying in the shelves have been there. but that's why this is so important that these bigger stores like target and other grocery chains are going to be setting aside time for the elderly and those with compromised immune system to get in there get what they need stress free take a look at your screen. we have a list of some of the stores that are being included in this and really stepping up with these initiatives whole foods will leave an hour before open just for the elderly and those with systems are compromised the most vulnerable people safe way we'll have time so the from 7 intel 9 tuesdays and thursdays target will have the first hour of being open dedicated them as well as dollar general that's going to be tremendously helpful because as we saw yesterday when i was live at a cost co i saw some elderly people in line waiting in the cold and then once they were in there it's crowded it's chaotic and they can even get what they need so that just really not fair because of the most susceptible to being infected one store in san jose, a more local store was the first or really in the area to step up soon autos market was ahead of the curb, let's hear them describe to us how it works for them. >>we customers are pace with us during this process because i'm charted waters for all of us, but we have a lot of needs are deli items arts. we have so many wonderful homemade items can take grabbing goes in stuff like that, so it allowed her to get in and out of the starting rate. >>that was a not as market in san jose. so another story that you can go to earlier if you are one of those susceptible people one of those people who really need to stay home if you can, but you know we'll need to get the essentials again that we've been reminding people if you have a neighbor friend family members, anybody who was in this category if you can head to the grocery store for them that is preferable but at least finally the stores are stepping up with this initiative
