As of right now Officials Say there are no plans to mobilize the National Guard under federal authority. Every state has a different way to deal with disasters. The National Guard is qualified to act under the control of the governor so if you were to federalize them you would lose that ability. You would also lose the fact that we can operate as Law Enforcement capacity to assist state and local Law Enforcement. If you were to federalize the National Guard you would lose that ability.

We have an expert joining us shortly with what is needed to get to the end of this pandemic. Good morning. We have got a blue sky out there, i think we could have some showers but it looks like a pretty good day. We want to say thank you for joining us on this saturday in our everchanging world. Good to have you with us. Good morning, thank you for waking up with us. Hopefully this is one of those habits that you always have and we are glad that you can still have because so much of our lies has changed. We are still here, we are enjoying Mother Nature this morning. We do have partly cloudy skies over bay. A few scattered showers working their way north so we may all see some rain this morning. We do have a cool start to the day with partly cloudy skies. Temperatures expected to be warmer than yesterday with inland cities into the upper 60s to near 70 degrees.

Reporter good morning, why i am working from home our photographer is at the food bank of contra costa, he got inside the warehouse where volunteers are preparing for the day. This is one of Many Food Banks in california that will get help from the National Guard. Volunteers say members wont arrive for another few days but they are grateful for the help. The governor called on the california National Guard after food banks had fewer volunteers and were in need to distribute the food. About 500 members will replace volunteers. The deployment started friday in sacramento county, personnel and equipment were sent to a warehouse. Even though there role is to help with food banks, since the guard is not mobilized under federal authority, they can also act as Law Enforcement. They could be used if they wanted to assist patrols, if they wanted to do general Law Enforcement to mak the laws, anything that the Law Enforcement capacity normally does they can do that. Reporter california has already called on the guard once during this pandemic. They deliver test kits to the grand princess before it landed in oakland. The new york National Guard has already been delivering food to those in need a new rochelle. Other states like colorado, tennessee, florida and rhode island have also called for military help with testing people. More than 2000 guard members have been called up by governors in other states, they expect that number to go up by the end of the weekend and to continue to increase. Back to you. Doctors say a controversial decision by the Health Department could mean there wont be an accurate count of how many people are infected. Los angeles dodgers reports the Health Department is switching policy from containment to easing the pain and limiting the number of deaths. Doctors are being advised to skip testing patients unless it will change how they may be treated. The message is partly due to the lack of resources and tests. Shelter in place order means one in five americans are being told to stay home. Authorities say strong restrictions are needed to slow the spread of coronavirus. Joining us now via skype we have a professor at the ucla school of medicine. Doctor, we spoke to you march 7, a couple of weeks ago. What a different world we were in then. Good morning, things are much different. Has greatly increased. When we talked we talked about the level of worry, at the time you thought maybe we were close to the peak, what has changed for you . We still see in every single country where there has been in outbreak it has gone up and it has gone down. There are certain conditions such as physical closeness, certain personal behavior, certain temperature and humidity conditions. We have not seen any generalized spread in the bay area or spread in california but what we have is we have o we need to do more, are we doing too much, do we need a in place . We dont want to go the way of italy with all of those fatalities. Absolutely not, we need to tackle this based on the local epidemiology with local measures based on a number of cases, we need to use our testing resources strategically, Health Department interesting testing, commercial labs have testing available, we really have to move away from the sledgehammer approach to a strategic approach based on where cases are and where we need to do interventions, like nursing homes, protect the vulnerable, isolate cases, but there is no indication for thina statewide shutdown. So you think this is too much . Completely too much right now. We have the ability to control the epidemic as they have in taiwan, in singapore, in japan, where there are no national shutdowns. Remember all of these epidemics have been highly localized to one city or one area. There has been no generalized spread, even in italy, it is all in the north. There are very few case in rome or naples. People really need to rethink what we are doing and take a look at the epidemiology. To be fair when we talk about cases like singapore they were able to track those people down who were infected into a quarantine very quickly. So, why do you think that what you are saying is in direct conflict with what the governor is hearing for medical professionals . There has been actually other medical epidemiologists who have raised this issue, that we can. , we can take a different approach, we dont need to shut down the economy, we can get people back to work and back to school if we take a localized approach based on the local epidemiology of infection. Look at the bay area, there are 550 cases in a population of 8 million people. That is actually a very low reported case to population rate rate. When new cases occur they can be isolated, we can do contact tracing, we can put in place interventions without during a shutdown. I think the Governors Office needs to reconsider its approach, it needs to have a order that expires in five days, it needs to reassess what we are doing. Obviously we know that a shutdown has a huge impact on the economy, a huge impact on peoples wallets. For people who want to go back to work it is important. From strictly a health perspective, if the shelter helps, is there any downside with just being extra careful so we dont overwhelm the Health System . I find that to be a fallacious argument in an abundance of caution we need to turn americas engine off. I think it is complete overreaction. I think we can do interventions based on the local eb damage he. There an increased number of cases in new york city so further social distancing and stay at might make sense at this time but it does not make sense for the entire state of new york or the entire country. We need to reverse what we are doing and think about things locally. Given what we are doing, lets say that what you want to happen does not happen, where are we in terms, as you look at coronavirus and how it will interact that we will see this peak, i talked to a mother in italy who is in rome who is like every night at the dinner table my kids say, have we hit the peak . I think that will be a conversation here in the u. S. , are we almost done with this pandemic . I think people feel like it is so far off. How far off do you think we are . We saw the epidemic peak in china in about 1619 days, so about three weeks. So when the cases start to increase, when they start to double, it looks like it is about three weeks before we hit a peak, but every epidemic has gone up, every epidemic has gone down, many have never taken off. We have not seen epidemic rates in santa clara, in San Francisco, in alameda, we actually have a low number of cases, yes, there are new cases and there will be more cases, people in nursing homes, people in businesses, but there is no generalized transmission. My recommendation is to be thoughtful, to rethink what we are doing, to assess and have a localized approach. Do you think by summer we could have some semblance of the life we used to know . I think towards the end of april we will be changing what we are doing if not even sooner than that. There is a favorable conditions in terms of weather and humidity, if you look at the actual weather humidity belt of worthy outbreaks have happened in china, coryell, in italy, they are all in this narrow band of Cool Temperatures in the 40s and moderate humidity like they have in new york right now. It is unlikely that we will see continuation of these outbreaks as the weather continues to warm and becomes drier in some areas. I certainly hope you are right. At ucla what kind of work is being done right now . There is a lot of work so people are tracking carefully the numbers of cases, the distribution of cases, by age, by physical geography, it is also a new Clinical Trial going on in terms of new antiviral agents, but, the most activity is on preparedness. So there is a huge amount of training going on and development in monitori oa scale of testing, so there is increased testing that is available through the Health System and there is also studies that are ongoing, looking at a treatment. How do you feel about chloroquine . I think we definitely need to wait for the data. We recently reviewed a report looking at chloroquine, there are concerns about how the study was actually analyzed. One cannot draw any conclusions from that study. While medications work in a test to we really need to test those in humans to see if they have any problem with it. But there are other antivirals that i am optimistic about that are in Clinical Trials that have shown to be potentially effective. We appreciate your insight. I certainly hope that you are right that april will bring some normalcy. We would all welcomed with open arms. Thank you for your time. Thank you.

The airline say it may have to lay off a proportionate number of employees if for the relief bill does not come through. Doctors say a decision by the Health Department in los angeles could be there will not be an accurate count of how many people are infected. The Health Department is switching is policy from containment to easing the pain of the sick. Doctors are being told to skip testing patients unless it will change how they are treated. The report says the interpretation is to only test patients who may need hospitalization. That message is partly due to the lack of resources and tests nationwide.
