Facebook
live

will
be
on
the
current
status
of
the
county's
public
health
order
in
that
of
the
beauty,
industry,
personal
care
services,
gyms
and
fitness
centers.
The
state
of
California
is
allowing
more
businesses
to
open
this
Friday
June,
19th,
hair,
nail
beauty
and
personal
care.
Salons
are
not
reopening
this
Friday
in
Santa,
Clara
County,
the
Santa
Clara
County,
Public,
Health
Alert
remains
the
same,
and
we
wanted
to
spend
some
time
today
to
talk
more
about
the
reasons
why,
behind
that,
we
do
not
currently
have
a
reopening
date.
C
This
is
something
that
we
are
constantly
monitoring,
assessing
and
reassessing,
because
this
is
what
we
know
about
transmission.
We
know
that
the
best
ways
to
prevent
transmission
is
through
social
distance
wearing
face
coverings
and
avoiding
high
touch
points.
These
services
and
industries
that
we
are
talking
about
today
require
a
close
contact
between
people
and
equipment
for
extended
periods
of
time,
which
may
increase
the
opportunity
for
transmission
of
code
that
19,
as
we
learn
more
about
transmission
prevention,
best
practices
in
to
inform
our
guidances.
We
are
constantly.
C
We
are
cautiously
carefully
moving
forward,
something
that
we
are
constantly
doing.
We
are
we
started
doing
in
the
last
month,
or
so
a
little
bit
even
before
that,
due
to
your
help
is
that
we
have
been
conducting
convenings.
The
board
supervisors
conducted
a
series
of
special
hearings.
Our
office
on
behalf
of
the
emergency
operation
center
is
conduct
online
forums
with
nail
salon
owners
we've
been
reaching
out
to

C
Without
you
know,
undue
expenditures,
and
also
that
that
are
safe,
balance
with
the
the
priority
prioritizing
is
as
safe
and
and
the
safety
and
health
of
workers
and
and
customers
I
just
want
to
start
by
saying
that
you
know
before
we
get
into
you

talking
with
our
special
guest
today
is
that
you

this.
The
the
beauty
care
industry
in
the
nail
salon

is
an
industry
that
I
grew
up
in
during
this
time.
C
I
have
been
witnessed,
as

of
you

and
this
is
something
that's
very
important
to
the
county.
We
know
that
small
businesses
is
the
lifeblood
it's
the
center
of
lowness,
for
our
county
and
for
our
families,
and
we
are.
We

fully
aware

constantly
monitoring
comments,

C
D
C
Do
you,
how
does
your
staff
react
or
I'm
sure
we've
been
talking
a
lot
everyone's
been
talking
a
lot
since
the
governor,
the
state
issued
their
set
of
guidelines
and
announced
that
you
know
you
know
that
that
salons
may
be
opening
this
Friday
June
19th
in
the
counties
that
where
it's
allowed
and
it's
not
allowed
here
in
Santa
Clara
County?
How
has
you
and
your
staff
reacted
to
that.
D
At
first
was
a
lot
of
miscommunication
they're
kind
of
confused
of
okay.
Are
we
open
on
the
19th
what's
going
on,
but
I
always
like
to
let's
keep
them
updated
and
because
I'm
working
with
the
county
to
tell
them
that
you
know
we
are
working
on
safety
safety
measures
right
now
and
as
soon
as
we
get
guidelines
from
the
county
and
instruct
us
what
to
do,
we
will
follow
mm-hmm.
D
C
That
is
an
unfortunate,
devastating
trend
that
we
are
seeing
across
the
country
this
morning
with
other
jurisdictions
restrictions
having
to
reclose
fairly
shortly
after
reopening.
So
we
certainly
are
monitoring
and
assessing
and
constantly
reassessing
the
situation
or
you
know
in
other
jurisdictions
in
here
in
Santa,
Clara
County,
because
when
we
do
this
folks,
we
want
to
do
it
right.
C
We
don't
know
exactly
what's
going
to
happen,
which
is
why
we
spend
so
much
time
monitoring
our
data,
our
numbers
and
you
know,
spend
so
much
time
engaging
with
small
businesses
and
and
members
of
the
industry
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
are
heading
in
the
right
direction.
I
know
that
it's
tough
I've
asked
you
know:
we've
asked
a
lot
of
nail:
salons
and
businesses
and
hair
salons
and
gyms
and
fitness
are
ready
to
shelter
in
place
in
to
to
be
our
partners
and
abiding
by
the
the
public
health
order.
C
But
we
we
have
to
ask
you
for
a
little
bit
more
to
continue
to
stay
patient
with
us
and
please
send
us
your
feedback.
Tell
us
what
guidelines
work
for
you
do
the
state's
guidelines
work
for
you
is
that
something
that
can
be
implemented.
Is
there
something
that's
been
missed?
Is
there
something
unique
to
Santa
Clara
County,
because
we
are
a
very
special
County
one
of
the
most
diverse
populations
and
in
a
large
population?
Is
there
something?
That's
not
that's
missing
the
mark
for
Santa
Clara
County
for
your
salons
for
your
facilities?
C
Are
there
differences
that
need
to
be
made
for
smaller
facilities
and
larger
facilities
at
this
time,
I
want
to
point
out
that
there
are
resources
in
the
county.
We
continue
to
make
more
investments
and
resources.
Please
check
our
County
website.
Wwe
gov,
org
/faq,
slash
coronavirus.
You
probably
see
it
right
underneath
me
right
now.
C
On
screen
as
the
banner-
and
you
know,
we
we
regularly
post
our
resources
there
at
anytime,
you
can
always
call
2-1-1
to
seek
out
resources
and
find
out,
what's
currently
available
to
support
small
businesses
and
also
clarification
on
the
guidance
Linda
can
I.
You
know,
I
want
to
ask
them.
You
know
you've,
like
many
businesses,
you've
had
to
pivot
and
reimagine
like
your
business
for
the
future,
but
in
the
meantime,
what
have
you
know?
What
are
some
of
the
things
that
you've
been
doing
well,
while
remaining
closed?
I
am.
D
I've
been
very
transparent
on
social
media,
with
my
customers
and
my
employees
to
let
them
know
what
the
reimaging
of
a
nail
salon
would
look
like,
especially
for
blossom
nail.
Spa
we're
gonna,
have
safety
measures.
Temperature
checks
provides
higher
sanitation,
which
we
already
do.
They'll
still
see
our
employees
with
facial
mask
gloves,
but
mainly
are.
The
difference
is
now
that
they're
will
see
our
salon
in
Plexiglas
to
kind
of
separate,
have
a
separation
to
protect
our
employees
and
customers
and.
C
This
is
all
this
is
everything
that
you've
done,
and
many
salons
have
done
this
already,
both
hair
and
nail
and
personal
care
salons
we've
here,
we've
heard
from
you,
so
many
of
you
have
taken
the
proactive
steps
to
be
ready
and
prepared
for
reopening,
but
even
even
what
the
county,
having
not
released
any
guidelines
yet
so
you
know
share
with
us
too,
but
you've
done
already.
So
is
that
something
that
we
need
to
include
our
guidelines?
Are
these
the
standards
that
should
be
applied
to
all
salons,
all
personal
care
facilities
across
the
industry?
Okay,
Linda?
C
What
advice
do
you
have
for?
For
you
know
other
I
mean
if
you're
well,
you
know
what
what
advice
do
you
have
for
like
customers?
So
you
know
your
customers,
the
customers
of
neon
salons,
hair
salons,
you
know,
I
mean
I'm
devoutly
devoted
to
my
hairstylist
I,
know
exactly
the
nail
salon:
I
go
to
and
they're
like
family
to
me.
So
we've
had
we've
heard
a
lot
from
your
customers
from
the
industry's
customers,
demanding
that
we
reopen
making
sure
that
we
take
care
of
you
all
that
make
sure
that
we
do
right
by
you
all.
D
Hyatt,
the
biggest
recommendation
I
would
give
to
customers
is,
please
purchase
gift
certificates
show
them
that
you
support
them,
that
you
are
waiting
for
them
as
a
business
owner.
We
are
facing
financial
hardship,
but
with
that
support
just
knowing
that
we
can't
be
closed
forever.
We
will
reopen
I,
really
believe
that,
with
the
help
of
the
county
to
set
guidelines
for
us
and
to
to
give
them
a
morale
that
you
know,
customers
are
waiting
for
them
to
reopen.
D
C
Yes,
you
know
tell
us
who
we
should
be
reaching
out
to
if
customers,
if
you
have
a
salon
that
you
know
or
carefully
or
a
gym
that
you
know,
is
doing
all
the
right
things
and
we
need
to
take
a
note
from
them
list
them
in
the
comments
section,
we
will
surely
reach
out
to
them,
and
you
know
I
guess
Linda
like
thank
you
so
much
for
being
here
today.
I
really
appreciate
everything
that
you've
done
and
thank
you
for
being
willing
to
be
so
visible.
C
I
know
that
this
is
not
what
you
usually
do
so.
Thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
Thank
you
for
all
the
work
and
all
the
proactiveness
you've
done
for
your
own
salon
and
sharing
that
with
them
with
us,
the
county.
So
please
continue
providing
us
your
feedback
and
letting
us
know
what
we
should
be
doing.
When
we
look
at
the
reopening
of
nail,
salons,
hair,
salons,
personal
care
facilities,
gyms
and
and
fitness
centers
now,
I
want
also
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
our
gyms
and
fitness
centers.
C
You
have
been
a
very,
very
vocal
group
and
demographic,
and
what
we've
learned
from
you
is
that
this
is
a
very
science-based,
very,
very
technical
industry
who
understands
our
public
health
order
and
has
given
us
a
lot
of
really
good
feedback
on
how
to
do
this.
The
right
way
I
just
want
to.
Let
you
know
that
we
hear
you,
we
see
you
we're
taking
all
your
feedbacks
and
comments
and
it's
all
informing
our
future
plans,
which,
at
this
time
are
still
being
developed.
We
are
not
reopening
this
Friday.
C
We
do
not
have
a
reopening
date
set
yet
for
the
personal
care,
fitness
and
gym
industry,
but

are
actively

I'm
going

of

So
