Good evening, and thank you for joining us. Im senior investigator reporter stephen stock. It took bay area counties a little more than six weeks to issue stay at home orders after the first case of covid19 was discovered here in the area. The white house too was slow to react.

The auditor says that counties hit by those fires, quote, did not follow key practices for emergency planning, that each county lacked a complete, updated emergency plan. Ray kelly i think that we all can do better.
