Soon as. Tomorrow that will see some things open some cities are ready others are quite just yet kron fours will tran live in walnut creek to explain good morning. Well. Good morning james, you hit it right on the head, some cities are ready and they have been ready so this is the green light that blessing by Governor Newsome to go ahead and open up some of the shops but there are other places like San Francisco more crowded. They say theyre not ready. So phase 2 will mean a little bit different for them then see perhaps walnut creek. Heres how its going to work the governor did say last friday that we are not weeks but days from reopening many shops and he is keeping to his promise in a few hours from now he will have a News Conference and we will carry that live for you as we have every day ever since the pandemic started when hes held a News Conference. He will go into detail, we do know this that many nonessential businesses like Clothing Stores music stores, sporting goods. Bookstores and some restaurants will be able to reopen their doors finally they have been struggling so hard for the past several weeks not getting any income but the governor says they are set to reopen those businesses. But they have to practice social distance and what happened before the pandemic will not happen again meaning you cant go into say a Clothing Store and browse like he once did instead he is emphasizing Curbside Pickup they will monitor the situation to see if you are following the rules and if youre not there is a chance that your store could be shut down as far as whats going to happen from individual city. The governor says hes leaving it up to people like mayor london breed to decide whats going to happen for San Francisco. And more. That people have interactions with other people. The likelihood that other folks will continue to get infected. And so as difficult as i know this has been we need to keep that in mind when making decisions about reopening. Lets give you an example the governor is starting to loosen up some of the parks, but mayor london breed, shes seeing whats happening to dolores park with so many people showing up so she has the right to possibly shut down dolores park so even though shes been lockstep with the governor and the governor is allowing each city to make their own decisions and some of the areas that are more remote theyve been ready for a long time. But dont expect to go into malls like he once did because the malls in essence will remain shut down and the restaurants, many of them have been open allowing Curbside Pickup and that will continue as far as going inside sitting down having an open up a menu that will not be part of phase 2. Back to you. All right, thank you will. You know its going to be part of phase 2, 3, 4 traffic worse than were even used to apparently they did a study and found we all do get back to work its going to be a crush on the bay bridge in all of our highways. Yeah weve got Sarah Stinson standing by with a great view. Of traffic around the bay to explain good morning sara. Good morning james darya thats exactly right and because people are going to want to drive themselves to work theyre not going to want to use Public Transportation a precaution and they expect in the study that traffic will be 42 minutes first what youre experiencing, but let me get behind the camera to show you what it looks like right here beautiful view here from your mum when island. Some of the construction crew. The bailout me to come get this Vantage Point white beautiful and the only reason youre looking at this type of traffic in front of us right now is because theres an accident on the bay bridge, a tow truck just arrived, so that she clear soon but imagine if this accident happened at this time during our usual commute. It would be way worse, no one would be even moving in ensure right now. And so theyre expecting traffic to be worse and then ever after the shelter in place order is lifted and thats what this study is saying by Vanderbilt University university showing when this order is lifted our commutes are going to be way worve than normal youre looking at another live look from our live cameras, it may take some time for people to want to hop on crowded bar, a new knee or even shared movers unless again with sanitary concerns and continued need to social distance. So people will likely be driving themselves to work now more than ever university projected that San Francisco will be the hardest hit city in the country saying each person will be on the road up to 80 minutes longer per day due to the traffic. The next worst city will be cities will be a los angeles and new york of course. By this study hopefully people will feel more comfortable riding Public Transportation. And what they think. But well just have to wait and see already you know posting this on twitter weve seen comments of selling saying yeah theres a way and you want to hop on Public Transportation is just quote too risky is what one woman said and thats just going to be maybe our new reality but as we know bart muni theyve been doing a lot to ease those concerns will just have to see how it pans out for now i mean this is really good if youre an essential worker, you know what im talking about its been very nice and that just wont be the case after this order is lifted. Totally impractical but i honestly thought about an electric light i mean your helmet i could take it off fix the hair to i now in seattle are being worked various stores are among those businesses that will be restarting here in phase 2 just in time for mothers day so great timing for them. Flower bowl florist is an example air out of walnut creek actually closed for the last 2 months of course under the stay at home order. But they started taking orders online and on the phone on monday and we spoke with the co owner who says the volume of orders that have been coming into been so overwhelming they actually had to turn down some clients stop taking orders for the rest of the week. With probably stopped a little sooner than we normally would because there are supply issues and some staffing issues people that are not available to us that and help with the alert holiday like this. Ability little bit. Supplies are as readily is available. Even weve been extremely while business is booming right now for mothers day there are a bit concerned about the longterm outlook a lot of the larger events that they rely on like weddings and graduations and birthdays of all been canceled. As more businesses do start to open up in the bay area, its likely going to be several weeks before the complete orders are listed for us to stay at home. In santa clara county. They say theyre not ready to open yet widespread testing and ap contract are not where they need to be they say santa clara counties. A doctor jeff smith says the goal is to test 4,000 people every day there right now the county contest. Only 1000 people. The problem right now is the individuals access to the service. So thats why weve put up some drivethru centers at 4 of our 2 minutes. And the state and they really have put up centers also so were trying to get people to. Maximize the utilization of testing. It depends on a number of factors whether or not theyll be ready to lift the orders and that includes a reduction in the number of covid positive cases and hospitalizations the supply that they get of ppe equipment for healthcare workers and an increase in not just testing but also contact tracing. In the east bay Contra Costa County is also weeks away from the opening and phase 2 of the guidelines laid out by the Governor Health officials there say they too need more testing. The patients in hospitals are not taking a more than 50 of the hospital beds icu beds because we need those beds for other things besides just treating covid19. We also want to make sure were testing enough in the community that were testing at least 2 tests per day for every 1000 people oh great now were much below that. Before loosening the restrictions doctors also want to make sure that theres enough like we said pp equipment for not just a hospital workers but also Nursing Homes where there are extra vulnerable. This is the scene at the Lawrence Park in San Francisco yesterday where mayor london breed said that people were doing a much better job of staying 6 feet apart and sticking with their own families. She wants that to be the norm saying that San Francisco is not out of the woods yet. The numbers are still going up. The number of deaths are still going up. And we have not lowered the curve. So we have to be mindful of that and we have to be responsible when we look at ways to bring various industries back implementing the kinds of guidelines that are going to continue to limit direct contact with one another. As you heard her say the numbers are going down yet in San Francisco and heres a look at the numbers more broadly across the bay area. 9,000 cases of coronavirus have been reported with 334 deaths statewide more than 60,000 cases with 2400 deaths and that number continues to grow as well across the u.
