Description
Mayor Walsh hosts a media availability to discuss updates relating to COVID-19.
A
I
want
to
begin
by
again,
as
always
thanking
everyone.
That's
here
today.
Thank
the
press
for
helping
us
share.
Accurate,
up-to-date
information
with
the
people
of
Boston
in
Massachusetts
I
want
to
thank
our
interpreters,
our
ASL
interpreters,
who
have
done
an
amazing
job
throughout
this
healthcare
crisis.
I
want
to
thank
them
for
always
being
here
with
us
and
getting
the
information.
The
news
out
to
folks
you.
A
They
pay
a
play,
a
critical
role
in
making
sure
that
everyone
has
access
to
important
information
that
we
want
to
share
with
the
public
I
apologize
being
a
few
minutes
late,
we
were
getting
new
information
which
we
have
updated
numbers
and,
as
of
yesterday
out
the
state
numbers,
we
can
confirm
16,000
790
cases
of
corona
virus
and
433
people
have
lost
their
life.
Today's
Boston
numbers
in
total
we
have
two
thousand
eight
hundred
and
twelve
cases
of
corona
virus
in
Boston
with
Boston
residents.
That's
up
310
from
the
day
before.
A
So,
if
you,
if
you
really
look
at
the
numbers
in
the
last
five
days,
we
have
significant
number
increases
here
of
positive
cases
of
corona
virus,
and
today
is
the
largest
increase.
We've
experienced
since
the
beginning.
We
have
four
new
deaths
in
the
city
of
Boston,
which
brings
a
total
of
34
people
residents
who
have
lost
their
life
to
the
corona
virus.
A
As
I
said
yesterday,
our
city
continues
to
pray
for
the
families
of
the
loved
ones,
who
lost
loved
ones
here
in
Boston
in
the
Commonwealth,
and
we
want
you
to
know
that
you
certainly
are
not
thoughts
and
prayers.
Every
day
this
pandemic
has
reminded
of
how
precious
life
actually
really
is.
It's
shown
us
how
strong,
generous
and
resilient
people
can
be.
A
It's
shown
us
how
much
we
can
accomplish
together
when
we
work
together
for
a
common
good
over
and
over
people
are
stepping
up
to
support
our
efforts
and
to
support
their
fellow
Bostonians
we're
getting
it
done
because
it
has
to
get
done
and
that's
what
a
strong
City
does
we're
entering
the
most
crucial
part
of
the
outbreak.
We're
at
the
beginning
of
the
two
to
three
weeks,
urges
and
cases,
and
that
will
be
very
difficult
for
many
people
in
our
city,
including
our
entire
city.
A
That's
why
we're
doing
everything
we
can
to
be
prepared,
we're
increasing
our
medical
and
care
capacity
for
vulnerable
populations
at
hospitals,
we're
ramping
up
resources
for
our
first
responders
and
our
frontline
workers
to
make
sure
they
have
the
support
that
they
need,
and
today
I
want
to
announce
a
couple
of
the
next
steps.
We've
turned.
A
The
center
is
a
collaboration
with
the
city,
the
state
Partners
HealthCare,
Ascension,
the
Boston
healthcare
for
the
homeless
and
many
other
folks
that
helped
get
to
get
this
facility
up
and
running
and
possible.
We're
also
appealing
for
staffing
support
from
the
wider
medical
community.
Medical
providers
who
wish
to
work
at
the
BCC
and
volunteers
who
wish
to
help
out
can
go
to
partners,
dot,
org,
slash,
Boston,
hope.
That's
partners,
dialog
/,
Boston,
hope
I
also
have
some
announcements
on
the
temporary
housing
for
our
frontline
workers.
A
Some
local
partners
have
stepped
up
to
provide
240
beds
for
first
responders
and
shelter
staff.
Northeast
University
is
providing
135
single
occupancy
rooms
in
one
of
its
dorms
for
Boston's
first
responders.
This
is
for
first
responders
who
need
to
be
self
isolated
and
reduce
the
risk
of
exposing
someone
at
home,
who
might
be
especially
vulnerable
like
seniors
or
someone
with
underlying
health
conditions.
Boston
University
is
providing
75
rooms
to
shelter
staff
who
work
at
Pine
Street
in
it
will
give
some
of
these
hard-working
people
and
frontline
staff.
A
The
ability
to
practice
physical
distancing
and
get
some
much-needed
rest
Hotel
Boston
in
Brighton
is
providing
74
rooms
for
Boston's
first
responders,
who
have
tested
positive
or
may
have
been
exposed
to
someone
with
kovat
19
and
are
able
to
isolate
at
home.
I
just
want
to
take
a
minute
to
thank
President
Joseph
Aoun
from
Northeastern
University
president
Bob
Brown
from
bu
and
Hotel
Boston
for
making
these
spaces
available
for
the
people
who
need
them.
The
most
I
can
also
announce
that
which
secured
50
beds,
improving
physical,
distancing
in
veterans,
housing,
the
New,
England
and
I.
A
Think
the
director
Andy's
here
from
the
Newland
housing
today,
the
New
Berlin
home
for
veterans,
will
move
as
many
as
40
to
50
veterans
to
a
former
nursing
home
facility
in
Brighton
that
is
currently
vacant.
The
are
the
property
owners,
Jeff,
Furman
and
mica
zeros
approached
my
office,
and
let
me
know
that
they
wanted
to
help.
They
offered
up
the
property
for
whatever
we
needed
it
for,
and
we
decided
to
use
the
music
to
help
veterans
in
group
homes,
Jeff
and
Mike
work
to
restore
the
power
and
water
and
make
all
the
repairs
necessary.
A
So
the
veterans
can
be
comforted.
They
did
this
at
no
cost
to
the
home
for
veterans
of
the
city
of
Boston.
I
want
to
thank
you
Michael
and
Jeff.
Your
acts
of
generosity
may
save
lives,
and
we
will
never
forget
it.
It's
important
that
we
support
everyone
on
the
frontlines
of
this
crisis.
In
addition
to
housing,
we
are
providing
first
responders
and
shelter
staff
with
housing
for
health
care.
A
Workers
is
being
made
available
to
Manuel
college
mass
heart
and
Simmons
University
they're
working
with
Beth
Israel
Hospital,
bring
him
in
Women's
Hospital
and
Children's
Hospital,
and
over
a
thousand
parking
spaces
have
been
made
available.
1100
actually
have
been
minute
made
available
to
hospital
and
healthcare
workers
in
the
Longwood
area
by
the
mass
College
of
our
Wentworth
University,
damn
a
winter
school
manual,
Harvard
Simmons
and
Boston
Latin
I
too,
want
to
thank
all
of
these
institutions
that
have
stepped
up
and
offered.
The
support.
A
I
also
have
an
announcement
to
work
on
our
work
for
prevention,
foreclosures
for
homeowners.
Since
the
beginning
of
this
crisis,
we've
been
working
on
ways
to
ease
the
burden
and
give
flexibility
on
all
kinds
of
housing
costs
were
faulted.
Eviction
proceedings
in
the
city,
we've
dedicated
three
million
dollars
in
city
funds
to
help
renters
we've
extended
due
dates
for
property
tax
bills.
We've
also
been
working
with
banks
and
lenders
to
provide
relief
for
homeowners
who
are
worried
about
making
mortgage
payments
today.
A
I
can
announce
that
we've
secured
agreements
of
twelve
of
the
largest
housing
lenders
in
Boston
to
defer
a
home,
homeowner
homeowners
mortgage
payments
by
three
months
and
longer,
if
needed,
they
also
agreed
not
to
charge
late
fees
in
non-payment
to
credit
to
credit
bureaus
response
to
credit
bureaus
after
the
deferral
period.
Homeowners
will
not
be
required
to
pay
the
deferment
payments
in
one
lump
sum:
they'll
be
able
to
work
it
out
with
their
lenders
on
a
repayment
program.
This
is
about
giving
some
people
the
opportunities
and
breathing
room
in
these
difficult
times.
A
No
one
should
have
to
worry
about
losing
their
home
right
now.
Any
homeowner
who
needs
help
with
their
payments
because
of
this
pandemic
should
contact
their
lender
directly
and
tell
them
that
you
need.
They
need
your
help.
You
need
their
help.
You
can
also
contact
the
Boston
home
center,
which
can
provide
more
information,
go
to
Boston
Home
Center
Boston
gov,
that's
home
center,
Boston
gov,
one
more
time,
as
I
said
around
the
first
time,
home
center
Boston
gov
I,
sincerely
thank
all
of
our
local
lenders.
A
Who've
joined
our
agreement,
you're
doing
the
right
thing
and
you're
helping
people
at
Boston
weather
this
storm.
The
lenders
that
have
signed
on
to
our
cove
819
for
closure
prevention
agreement
so
far,
our
Bank
of
America,
Boston,
private
Cambridge,
Trust
Company
century
Bank,
Citizens,

city
of
Boston,
Credit,
Union,
Dedham,

Bank
eastern

and

dare
for
a
full
list
of
lenders.
A
Moving
forward,
go
to
Boston,
gov,
slash
coronavirus
and
if
I
didn't
mention
your
bank,
please
feel
free
to
contact
me
directly
or
contact
the
city
to
get
on
this
list.
We'd
love
to
have
more
institutions
on
board,
so
we
can
reassure
as
many
Boston
homeowners
as
possible.
Now
more
than
ever,
we
have
to
work
together
to
do
everything
we
can
to
keep
people
housed.
So
please
join
us.
Lenders
should
contact
as
I
said,
either
myself
or
the
Boston
home
center.
A
A
We
have
been
long
committed
to
eliminating
the
in
justices
that
make
some
groups
more
vulnerable
to
poor
health
than
others.
Equity
is
at
the
core
of
our
health
policy.
As
a
city,
equity
remains
a
major
focus
as
we
respond
to
the
corona
pandemic,
promote
coronavirus
pandemic,
with
always
with
all
the
reports
that
we
have
seen
of
the
corona
virus,
hitting
people
of
color
hotter
in
places
all
over
the
country
such
as
Detroit
in
Chicago.
A
This
is
certainly
disturbing,
we'll
be
taking
a
good
hard
look
at
the
numbers
in
Boston
to
understand
and
address
any
inequities
that
exists,
because
we
believe
that
data
is
critical.
We've
been
working
to
collect
as
much
data
as
possible
about
race
and
ethnicity
in
patients
in
Boston
and
I've,
asked
the
state
and
our
surrounding
communities
to
help
us
and
do
the
same.
Our
date
is
not
complete
yet,
but
we
are
releasing
the
data
on
race
and
ethnicity
that
is
available
to
us
today.
It
accounts
for
62
percent
of
the
total
coronavirus
cases
in
Boston.
A
We
will
continue
to
collect
data
to
fully
understand
how
deep
these
inequities
run
and
how
to
help
every
Bostonian
understand
the
virus
and
its
risks.
It
looks
at
the
initial
data
and
we
do
see
disparities,
and
it
does
concern
me
in
order
to
target
these
issues
directly
today,
I'm
forming
the
kovat
19
health
inequities
task
force.
This
task
force
will
review
the
data
on
health
inequities
that
face
african-american,
Latino
and
Asian
population.
Here
in
Boston
it
will
analyze
the
data
and
best
practices
related
to
the
Cove.
A
In
response,
the
task
force
will
strengthen
our
strategy
for
equity
and
access
to
service.
It
will
help
us
provide
recommendations
for
resources
and
strategies
that
the
city
can
use
moving
forward.
The
members
of
this
task
force
will
reflect
the
diversity
of
Boston's
neighborhoods
and
experience
in
Boston's,
public
health
and
community
outreach
communities.
I
will
announce
those
members
later
on
today.
The
research
we're
doing
should
help
us
understand.
The
impacts
of
immigrant
communities
are
facing
as
well.
A
I
want
to
remind
everyone
that
they
are
not
they're
not
to
be
a
fast
afraid,
they're
not
to
be
asked
about
the
immigrant
status
when
seeking
medical
help,
and
they
should
not
be
afraid
to
approach
and
get
men.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
people
do
that.
The
information
that
were
collecting
there
on
this
data
is
kind
of
the
same.
A
If
it's
the
same
information
we're
collecting
in
neighborhoods,
where
we
can
see
where
the
cases
are
happening,
it
allows
us
the
opportunity
to
formulate
a
response
to
go
into
those
different
neighborhoods
to
try
and
flatten
out
those
numbers
that
we're
seeing
in
some
neighborhoods
in
the
city
of
Boston
we're
seeing
higher
numbers
in
other
other
areas.
Some
of
it's
due
to
testing
and
other
reasons,
so
we
want
to
be
able
to
have
an
appropriate
response
in
all
of
our
communities
here
in
the
city
of
Boston.
A
The
city
is
also
working
with
hospital
partners
to
receive
any
theater
that
helps
our
understanding
of
this.
The
Boston
Medical
Center
is
a
hospital
that
has
served
the
diverse
community
for
years.
They've
told
us.
The
co
vid
was
called
the
co
vid.
Is
this
was
disproportionately
impacting
communities
of
color?
This
seen
a
25%
increase
in
the
number
of
patients
of
color
that
they
had
treated
for
Co
vat19,
an
increase
in
percentage
of
patients
from
Dorchester
hi
Parker
Mattapan
Mass
General
Hospital
has
told
us
that
the
patient's
they're
treating
for
kovat
are
disproportionately
spanish-speaking.
A
They
think
and
I
agree
that
we
need
to
focus
more
on
the
Latino
community
around
Boston.
Some
of
these
hospitals,
along
with
the
city,
are
working
to
address
the
issue
right
now
and
we're
going
to
support
these
efforts.
It's
important
to
know.
As
of
now
private
is
the
private
issue,
see
private
issues
do
come
into
play
on
how
we
report
race
and
ethnicity,
data
in
the
debts
of
Cova
19.
A
Apparently,
the
the
information
the
data
identifies
fewer
than
five
deaths
for
several
demographic
groups
number
number
numbers,
this
small
could
lead
to
the
identification
of
patients
that
violate
their
privacy.
Personal
data
like
this
is
protected
under
HIPAA
laws,
and
we
are
certainly
going
to
respect
that.
Finally,
before
I
take
questions.
I
want
to
speak
directly
to
the
people
of
Boston.
I
know
that
it
feels
like
women
battling
this
crisis
for
a
year.
The
truth
is,
we
still
have
a
long
way
to
go.
A
I
need
each
and
every
one
of
you
to
remind
to
be
reminded
and
stay
focused
on
our
collective
goal:
stopping
the
spread
of
this
virus
to
protect
our
most
vulnerable.
They
keep
reminding
people
that
you're
not
powerless.
You
have
the
power
to
protect
yourself
and
those
around
you.
Every
little
thing
can
make
a
difference,
staying
home
and
away
from
others.
Whenever
you
can
and
it's
possible
is
important
to
do.
There
should
be
no
gatherings
or
crowds
anywhere.
A
For
any
reasons,
if
you
see
chronic
conditions
where
you're
headed
we're
asking
a
turnaround,
change
your
plans
across
the
street
no
visiting
or
meeting
up
with
friends
family
who
are
not
part
of
your
household.
That
is
really
important.
I
want
to
repeat
that.
We're
asking
you
not
to
have
it
no
visiting
or
meeting
up
with
friends
or
families
who
are
not
a
part
of
your
immediate
household,
only
go
out
for
essential
items
and
I
mean
essential
items.
A
Keep
your
masks
on
covering
your
face
the
entire
time
I'm
asking
people
and
we've
done
a
good
job
of
this
Thank
You
Boston,
respecting
the
curfew,
we're
asking
you
not
to
leave
your
home
between
9:00
p.m.
and
6:00
a.m.
we're,
asking
people
to
wash
your
hands
as
often
as
possible
once
warm
water
and
soap.
You
can't
remember
the
last
time
you
washed
your
hands.
Just.
A
What
we
do
during
these
next
few
weeks
is
critical
to
flattening
the
curve
and
saving
our
lives.
None
of
us
want
to
look
back
to
what
three
weeks
from
now
and
think
we
could
have
or
should
have
done
more.
Now
is
the
time
the
city
needs
you.
The
vast
majority
of
people
are
doing
an
incredible
job,
but
we're
still
seeing
instances
with
people
gathering
a
particular
concern
that
people
are
still
visiting
senior
housing
and
assisted
living
communities.
I
want
you
to
remember
that
seniors
are
amongst
the
most
vulnerable
members
of
our
community
right.
A
Now,
it's
heartbreaking
not
to
see
our
mothers,
fathers,
aunts,
uncles,
grandparents,
great-grandparents,
but
the
best
thing
we
can
do
for
them
right
now
is
to
practice
social
distancing.
Please
respect
the
requests
from
management
of
senior
housing
facilities
during
this
important
time.
I
know
these
precautions
are
difficult,
but
we
are
missing
our
loved
ones
and
we
are
missing
our
traditions.
This
Sunday
is
Easter
and
we're
in
the
middle
of
Passover
I
urge
all
Bostonians
not
to
be
traveling.
Do
not
have
family
gatherings.
A
Unfortunately,
no
big
dinners,
this
Sunday,
we
can't
go
to
Tampa
low
to
church,
but
many
of
us
are
holding
services
online.
There's
plenty
of
ways
to
get
connected
with
your
loved
ones.
Virtually
I've
never
spent
the
Easter
of
Sunday.
Without
seeing
my
mother,
this
will
certainly
be
the
first
I'm
gonna.
Try
and
call
her
I'm
gonna
tell
her
I
love
her,
but
I'm
not
gonna,
see
her
because
I
love
her
for
many
people,
not
seeing
family
on
Easter's
hard
to
accept,
but
listen
to
me.
A
God
certainly
understands
Easter
is
a
time
of
reflection
on
permanence
of
love
and
faith
and
how
we
all
overcome
darkness.
This
Easter
I
urge
you
to
respect
life
by
protecting
life.
Take
the
time
for
reflection
and
prayer
at
home
to
think
about
what
we
have
looked
forward
to
when
we
overcome
the
darkness
together.
I
want
to
thank
you.
A
I
have
several
questions
here
from
the
press
that
was
sent
there
beforehand,
so
I'm
gonna
go
through
those
questions
and
then
I'm
going
to
open
it
to
the
UPS
of
the
press
is
presently
in
front
of
me
from
Danny
McDonald
at
the
Boston
Globe.
What's
the
mayor's
reaction
to
dozens
of
construction
sites,
apparently
violating
the
construction
suspension
in
Boston,
prompting
the
cities
inspectional
services
to
shut
them
down
and
in
this
week
was
shut
down,
94
jobs,
mostly
small
jobs,
and
they
had
to
be
shut
down
and
I.
A
What
I'm
asking
for
is
that
all
the
unloads
in
the
city
of
Boston,
whether
residential
commercial,
be
flexible
as
they
can
in
offering
different
payments
to
their
own
tenants.
We
have
put
in
place
measures
to
ensure
housing
stability
to
protect
against
residential
evictions
and
offer
funds
for
renters
who
cannot
afford
to
pay
rent.
So
I'm
asking
businesses
also
to
help
us.
We've
also
launched
the
small
business
relief
fund
for
small
businesses
struggling
to
meet
the
payments.
A
A
Is
from
the
task
force
that
we're
creating
and
when
the
task
force
that
starts
to
do
the
work
which
I
think
is
gonna,
be
tomorrow?
How
long
will
the
responses
come
to
stop
implementing
in
the
city?
We
pretty
much
have
a
standard
approach
right
now
in
the
city
of
Boston,
since,
since
the
coronavirus
taught
in
the
McChrystal
group
McChrystal
group
came
on
is
that
we
allow
24
hours
to
solve
a
problem
so
as
they
address
those
problems
within
24
hours,
we're
going
to
have
response,
hopefully
on
all
those
cases,
unless
it's
something
beyond
our
control.
A
A
A
It's
not
it's,
not
it's
not
increasing
and
enabled,
because
of
a
neighborhood
or
because
who
lives
there
or
because
the
color
of
your
skin
what's
happening.
Is
it's
a
lot
of
it?
Is
it
comes
down
to
practice
and
social
distancing?
It
comes
down
to
the
stay-at-home
order
that
the
governor
put
in
place.
It
comes
down
to
all
of
the
different
things
that
we're
doing
as
far
as
taking
care
of
yourself
at
the
end
of
the
day.
That's
what
we
have
to
continue
to
do
the
the
intention
behind
the
task
force
and
getting
the
information
is.
A
A
So
what
the
task
force
is
going
to
do
is
look
at
the
disparity
and
look
at
how
ways
of
resolving
that,
but
also
seeing,
if
there's
a,
if
there's
an
issue
on
testing
and
not
access
to
enough
tests
clearly
in
those
communities
that
a
lot
of
those
folks
have
had
access
to
tests.
So
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
the
day
that
they're
gonna
analyze
it
and
do
some
do
some
cutting
of
it.
A
The
question
is,
at
the
BCE,
see
there's
500
beds
of
the
homeless
and
500
beds
for
hospital
care,
and
what's
my
confidence,
that'll
be
enough?
I
don't
think
I
have
confidence.
That's
enough!
I!
Think
it
really
is
going
to
depend
upon
the
surge
in
the
next
couple
of
days.
I
think
that
we're
seeing
certainly
in
Boston
an
increase
in
numbers.
A
If
we
see
these
types
of
numbers
going
up
for
the
next
14
days,
we're
talking
10,000
people
that
will
have
coronavirus
in
Boston
alone
on
top
of
the
3,000
roughly
that
have
it
now,
but
we
do
have
the
ability,
if
you
need
be,
and
we're
working
very
closely
at
the
hospitals
to
two
men,
they're
keeping
an
inventory
of
what's
available
and
as
of
right
now,
I
think
we're
still
safe.
In
the
hospital
side,
only
ask
my
team
I
Tina's
come
up,
maybe
I'd
rest
a
little
bit
of
hospital
stuff
via
while
he's
here.
B
Yeah
I
mean
every
single
day
that
you
marry
every
single
day.
The
Health
Commission
talks
with
the
hospitals
about
their
emergency
room
capacity,
their
ventilator
capacity,
their
surge
bed
capacity
and
in
ER
standing
contact
with
them.
So
we
haven't
understanding
right
now
that
the
hospitals
are
maintaining
their
capacity
and
be
able
to
meet
the
current
need.
But
we
are
seeing
starting
to
see
that
uptick
so
to
the
mayor's
point.
B
As
we
see
the
cases
climb,
we'll
see
more
folks
going
into
the
hospital,
but
every
single
day
we
monitors
to
see
what
the
beds
look
like
and
then
the
next
morning
talking
with
the
hospitals
to
figure
out
how
we
can
be
supportive
and
helpful.
So
it's
important
work
that
they're
doing
but
we're
trying
to
make
sure
we
stay
closely
connected
to
them.
A
And
just
finish
up
on
your
question:
I
mean
we're
hoping
that
that
I
hope
we
don't
have
to
use
it
quite
honestly,
but
we
won't
full.
You
know
if
you
listen
to
the
the
experts
every
day
it
changes
the
death
tolls
totals
in
the
country,
change
that
now
they're
projecting
lower
death
totals
New.
York
was
saying
a
couple
days
ago
that
they
were
hoping
the
level
off
and
we've
seen
increases
the
last
couple
of
days
and
in
cases
positive,
so
I
don't
know.
A
I
think
everything
right
now
is
is
everyone's
doing
that
best
to
collect
data
and
try
and
figure
out
what
the
data
says
and
analyze
it.
But
I
don't
think
this
is
a
virus.
That
is
very
it's
very
unpredictable,
so
I
think
it's
gonna
be
very
unpredictable
for
anyone
to
get
it
right
completely.
I
think
that
their
expertise
and
how
to
handle
it
is
certainly
they've
been
right
right
on
and
that's
social
distancing
and
in
in,
and
you
know
not
gathering,
and
all
of
that.
A
That's
that's
they've
been
right
on
on
that,
but
I
think
with
the
data
I
mean
we
all
look
at
models,
and
you
know
some
people
think
let
me
just
be
clear:
we're
not
going
to
be
out
of
the
woods
by
May
4th
when
the
emergency
order
expires
as
of
right
now
that
might
be
extended.
Now
we're
looking
into
the
summer
months,
we'll
still
be
talking
about
coronavirus
every
single
day
in
Boston,
well
into
July
and
August
here
in
Massachusetts
and
in
the
country.
C
A
Question
is:
is
April
school
vacation
still
on
in
the
city
of
Boston
and
as
far
as
I
know,
it
is
I
have
not
had
a
conversation
with
the
superintendent
about
recommendations.
I
think
that
many
of
our
kids
are
learning
online.
Many
of
our
teachers
teaching
online
many
of
our
parents
are
certainly
helping
parents
online
and
teach
online
as
well,
but
I
don't
have
the
full
answer.
Next
time.
A
I
talk
like
at
the
NCI
but
I
think
as
far
as
now
it's
April
vacation
is
still
on,
but
unfortunately
my
advice
to
everyone
is
families
that
are
thinking
you
might
want
to
go
on
the
car
and
go
visit
a
family
member
somewhere
in
the
country
if
they
live
here
in
the
country.
My
advice
is
not
to
do
that.
My
advice
is
stay,
stay
home,
don't
take
your
kids
to
visit
the
grandparents
because,
wherever
they
on
the
United
States
of
America
everyone's
vulnerable
at
this
point
you
know
questions
okay,.
A
The
question
is
just
to
clarify:
the
question
is:
is
the
the
program
announced
today
with
the
Lent,
with
the
lenders
for
renters
or
for
homeowners?
It's
the
homeowners,
it's
the
homeowners
that
that
have
the
that
having
trouble
paying
their
mortgage
and
indirectly
it's
for
renters
as
well,
because
the
many
of
these
houses
that
we're
talking
about
are
two
and
three
family
homes
that
people
are
renting
apartments
to
and
if
their
tenants
aren't
paying
rents
they're
having
a
hard
time
paying
the
rent.
So
we're
trying
to
be
as
helpful
as
possible.
A
A
My
work
anything
for
rent
this.
We
have
several
things
from
rent
this.
We
have
the
fund
that
we
created
last
week,
the
3
million
dollar
fund
and
then
we're
also
working
this
summer.
I
think
this
of
assistance
coming
from
the
state
and
the
federal
government.
Well
so
anyone
knows
any
questions
or
renter.
