Still ahead robin. Thank you john were checking in on a caltrain because we have delays up to 20 minutes are having issues in the south bay, so train one 23 has stopped in morgan hill theyre having some mechanical issues this morning so thats causing a 20 minute delay right now. They are holding that rain pretty much until further notice so as soon as they release it or solve the let you know and pass it on meanwhile plan ahead or consider an alternate source of transportation they want to check in on the bay bridge which is unusually light into San Francisco and has a really backed up much and never reach the 80 the overcrossing or even the maze so easygoing at 13 minutes for 80 west from the bottom of the maze after fremont street. Thats pretty quick well check more bridges coming up back to you all right robin, thank you 8 oh one lets get to our big story today. The fact that the United States has seen a steady increase. In Coronavirus Infections and hospitalizations for the entire month of october and this map sort of illustrates what the situation is right now it compares current cases in the levels that weve seen go up compared to the week prior and in 5 states those states in dark red here thats where weve seen cases jumped more than 50 . Week over week, 35 states in the more orange color which includes california. Thats where cases have jumped 10 to 50 one week to the next and then in the 9 states in yellow thats where the numbers have held steady no movement in either direction only one state missouri, which you see there in green has actually seen their cases go down. Nearly 80,000 new cases were recorded yesterday and that pushes the u. S. Total of infections now to 8. 8 million with at least 227,000 people now dying since february. Lets take a look at our numbers for california and the bay area statewide more than 920,000 confirmed cases since this pandemic began with more than 17,000 people dying in the bay area more than a 114,000 confirmed cases with more than 1700 deaths from covid19 that is scary. Map and scared to see an outbreak at a hospital in the bay area u c s f bed center has seen a number of staff and patients test positive for covid kron 4 Sarah Stinson is following the story live this morning with the latest on the outbreak sarah. And our it just confirms that this probe rake happened here at the ucsf Health Center the her nasas heights location and you can see right now its pretty busy and i have my mask on to make sure im staying safe. We know 5 people have tested positive to patients sharing a room and 3 employees who cared for them tested positive. Now Ucsf Medical Centers investigating to figure out where the spread of the coronavirus originated at the hospital meaning who is patient 0 whos the one who started this. Both patients tested negative for coronavirus before being admitted to the hospital. Later one unexpectedly tested positive on the routine discharge test this set off an investigation and Contact Tracing began that helped identify the other cases. Take a look at the statement from Ucsf Medical Center saying we have not yet determined. The original source or exact sequence of these infections. However we have isolated these patients and employees and are working to identify tests and quarantine other individuals who may have been exposed to them or who have symptoms at last check the hospital says neither patient has symptoms or of coronavirus in the employees have mild symptoms now i just heard back from the public so associate here who works at the hospital that she told me. Something very interesting ive never heard before she told me that because the patients have no symptoms in because the 3 employees have very mild symptoms. She credits that to everyone wearing a mask she says that if you are a mask youll get less of a dose of the coronavirus if you get it at all which means youll have less symptoms, ive never heard that before its very interesting and she also is telling me that right now theyre continuing to do that testing theyre trying to figure out the sequence of this and if this virus mutated where did it come from theres a lot still to figure out is very but you said that theyre still working on it and theyre still doing everything they can to keep people safe. They make sure everybody is wearing a mask the patients have to get tested before and after in the employees they get screened every day which you know what that means temperatures and all that. Yeah that that mass that youre wearing that keeps the stuff all the droplets from floating into you just like it keeps them from floating out to me even though were not in the same place all right, thanks a lot sasha.

Much like we saw yesterday were really just repeating all of that bright skies over berkeley right now you can see the shadow of the Berkeley Hills are u c berkeley and just a nice inviting start to the day. I mentioned those stronger winds that we had to start the week those have departed and much like yesterday, its a calm start and will remain calm. Well into the afternoon ahead of us. Calm winds into tomorrow too so that means fire risk a little bit down we are seeing increased humidity calmer winds, mild temperatures all that works in our favor.

Monitor this morning, deep red and solano napa and sonoma counties indicating extreme drought. Those golden hues will that severe drought across most of the bay area and then moderate drought from san jose southward and more of those peach colors we dont have any chance of rain ahead of us at least in the near future. So likely to be seeing deepening drought even as we work into the beginning of november. Todays daytime highs will be in the 70s and 80s some 60s at the coastline. If were not going to see any rainfall might as well have some good weather and that is certainly something were keeping around. Yet again today.

John lets check in on the traffic still tracking. Delays on caltrain this morning. Tray number one 23 stopped in morgan hill they were having mechanical issues and so thats been causing delays up to 20 minutes, theyre working on it working to get moving. But you need to plan ahead or consider an alternate source of transportation you cant say i didnt warn you all right off to 92 checking in on the traffic. Doesnt look so bad right i mean its busy but no significant slowing its only 14 minutes between the nimitz and one on one so were off to a pretty good start for both directions here in the bay bridge, im always surprised when i check in on it because normally we have a lot of heavy traffic. At least from the 80 overcrossing or west grand that really hasnt happened this morning so 11 minutes and very light, almost looks like friday into San Francisco off to fremont street were checking in on some numbers and highway forced back at the limits 6 ad a little busy especially emerging from south to 42 on to the you know the usual jam up at the interchange of the nimitz recovering from several minor crashes on the hayward side and then one o one not bad 33 minutes from san jose heading to menlo park back to you. In the buzz. The dodgers flew back to la to show off their world series trophy and. Give everybody covid im only half kidding who knows how many of them have coronavirus after Justin Turner was out there celebrating without a mask. Clearly the dodgers just dont give a about the rules or let alone anybodys health and mel b is investigating a k this might result in suspensions and fines with the trophy in the bag though, and all the money in the world, the dodgers obviously dont care. But the mayor of la does he said whether youre a baseball champion or an everyday citizen, everybody should follow the rules or were never going to stop the spread.

The nfl doesnt want the super bowl to turn into a super spreader on the other hand. They do want fans so according to my favorite source shifty with espn theyre going to allow about 20,000 fans to sit in pods 6 feet apart when the big game is played in tampa on february 7th. And the fortyniners are trying to get there again. But they have got a tough road to hold against Russell Wilson and the seahawks and sunday is not going to be cakewalk for the raiders either they take on the Cleveland Browns and Baker Mayfield here are both coaches talking up the competition. Well, i think number one a Cleveland Browns generate generated 14 turnovers off from their defense and you can put the yards per and you can talk about that stat all you want they have set him up.
