To use those services kron fours reyna harvey live in alameda with more on the story reyna. Good morning. Hey its a big day for lot of people like you mentioned starting tomorrow we have larger shops and salons that are able to finally offer services for people indoors and i know a lot of people are checking their calendars right now to see if they can reach out to their detentions in barbers to have them squeeze them in for appointment you might remember barbershops and salons were able to open up their doors outside so a lot of people have made appointments we saw that across the bay area people. Being able to visit with their barbers and theyre here stylus outdoors but there are a lot of challenges that a lot of the salons face not only could you not offer every Service Outdoors because of the things you need indoors. The lighting and all of that its very windy outside so that was problematic. But on a more serious note, the elements and a lot of people have to work in cold conditions and the air quality over the past couple of weeks as you know has not been the best so that was also challenging for a lot of people not not just here salons and barber shops are opening tomorrow, but also Outdoor Recreational activities, including if you like to the miniature golf or that in cages driving ranges cart racing all of those things also indoor malls. Youre going to have to keep the people that visit to a 25 capacity so we have salons and barber shops that are opening up tomorrow but the same rules apply so if youre making appointments and youre going to any of the shops want to make sure you wear a mask and theyre going to have to limit the amount of people that are in there for now reporting here in Alameda Reyna harvey kron 4 news all right, thank you very much right now. Well to the east bay now the city of alameda will now find businesses and people who violate Public Health orders. The City Council Approved the new ordinance just this week, the first violation will cost 250 a second violation carries a fine of 500. A violation that follows will result in 1000 up to 1000 fine. It is another tool in the fight to stop the spread of covid19 but there is some mixed reaction among alameda residents. It seems to be an impingement on personal liberties accountability with flexibility. It sounds like a good plan was long as they. You dont have enough people that patrol and make sure that theyre following protocol. It will be fine, but its not they might as well not even have an ordinance. Well the city did say that the overwhelming majority of businesses in alameda or are following the rules. Well in the south bay casinos in san jose have been given the winning hand so to speak as they get the go ahead to start operating. Outdoors the casinos must follow strict coronavirus guidelines, including sanitation and face mask. Kron fours will tran is live in san jose with those details will good morning. Good morning robin, the city of san jose they are not letting the casinos gamble with your health and they just like all the other businesses they have to move out doors. You see those tense over my right shoulder. Thats whats going to happen thats the location they will be when operation resumes possibly as early as the end of this week or a short time after that the casinos have been shut down for more than 6 months because of covid19 and that has cost them. Millions of dollars and its cost the city of san jose millions of dollars as the matrix casino as well as bay one on one they claim that they pay the city of san jose approximately 19 Million Dollars every year in the form of taxes. So whats going to happen moving forward is they will move half of their card games outside they cannot practice it inside so gamblers you better bundle up if you want to come back to the casinos and robin you talked about the new guidelines, its pretty much whats going on in tracy star casinos they open up recently as well whats going to happen is the dealers they will have to wear masks, they will have to use hand sanitizers as often as they possibly can the chips obviously are used for gambling they will have to be sanitize the cards, especially poker games and blackjack a couple of things they have options available to them after a certain amount of time this cause will either have to be thrown away. They will have to be either sanitized or if they dont want to do both of them. They can set them aside for up to 7 days that the virus possible covid19 die before the cards get back into circulation as far as bay one oh one they dont know when they will open up. Its going to be very tough for matrix they say that because they have strict guidelines not only do they have to pass the health inspections. Theyre also regulated by the gaming industry once of those to sign off. You can come back, but you cant go into the casinos youll have to be outside and i know a lot of gamblers are looking forward to maybe drinks and food served at the table that will not happen. Back to you. All right, thank you very much well and speaking of we do have the latest study from ucsf it found that there is an ongoing high transmission of covid19 in the Latin X Community within San Francisco, especially in the Mission District. Researchers set up an accessible testing site at the mission park station in 6 and a half days more than 2000 people were tested about 9 came back positive in comparison the Positivity Rate at the embarcadero testing site was just one percent. The San Francisco, Latino Task Force for covid19 says the results show the city needs to focus targeted testing in areas most affected by the coronavirus. In many ways its great that we have Testing Facilities on the embarcadero in other parts of San Francisco. The strategy must be to come into the communities where we know that the prevalence of infection is higher, we know that its not percent here in the Mission District we know the baby was deeply impacted we know the is and so strategizing to ensure that we can get low barrier easyaccess testing with quick turnarounds have to be a primary up push. Yeah, the lap, no the Latino Task Force says that one of the major contributing factors for why covid19 is prevalent in the Latin X Community is mix messaging the Task Force Says its received complaints about conflicting messages on whether masks really work to curb the spread of the virus. The cdc stands firm in fact that wearing a mask does help.
