Good
morning
and
welcome
to
Facebook
live
with
the
County
of
Santa
Clara.
My
name
is
David
Campos
I'm,
a
deputy
county
executive
and
I
serve
as
the
public
information
officer
for
the
county's
Emergency
Operations
Center.
We
are
here
this
morning
with
James
Williams,
who
is
the
county
counsel
to
the
County
of
Santa
Clara,
and
also
the
director
of
the
Emergency
Operations
Center.
Just
so
you
know,
before
we
started,
we
actually
had
our
face
coverings
on
and
took
them
off
so
that
the
American
sign
language
interpreter
could
actually
interpret.
B
So
thank
you
for
tuning
in
and
let
me
begin
by
just
giving
the
latest
numbers
on
cases
in
terms
of
where
we
are
today
today.
As
of
yesterday,
there
are
two
thousand
eight
hundred
and
nineteen
cases
of
people
that
have
been
infected
in
the
county
to
143
143
depths,
and
we
are
sad
to
report
one
more
death
added
to
that
number
and,
of
course,
our
thoughts
and
prayers
go
to
the
family
of
those
who
have
died
because
of
this
virus.
B
So
thank
you
for
tuning
in
and
James.
We
are
here
today
to
talk
about
this
revised
order
that
was
announced
earlier.
This
week
on
Monday
and
it's
going
into
effect,
June
5th,
which
is
this
Friday
in
fact,
tomorrow
night
12:00
midnight,
it
goes
into
effect,
and
so
you
again
as
County
Council
work
with
the
Health
Officer
to
write
this
to
put
it
in
place.
So
let's
take
this
opportunity,
what
what
does
it
mean?
What
does
it
do?
What's
different
about
this
order
compared
to
where
we
were
well.
C
This
order
is
significant
because,
while
we
are
still
in
a
shelter-in-place
order,
this
represents
a
very
substantial
opening
and
I
think
we're
actually
at
a
point
now
where
there
is
more.
That
is
open
than
closed,
although
of
course
with
appropriate
social
distancing
protocols
and
with
appropriate
other
precautions
in
place,
but
I
think
that's
an
important
milestone
and
our
community
has
done
a
phenomenal
job
with
shelter
in
place.
The
results
here
in
Santa,
Clara
County
have
been
extraordinary,
and
it's
really
because
of
that
progress
that
this
big
shift
has
been
made.
C
You
know
it's
it's
a
it's
a
challenging
shift
of
framework,
because
in
some
ways
the
message
is
simpler
when
it
was
just
a
total
shelter-in-place
message
and
now
we're
in
kind
of
a
transitional
phase
of
the
response,
where
there's
increasing
focus
on
the
testing
in
case
in
contact
tracing
but
like
I
said,
a
majority
of
businesses
and
activities
are
now
open
with
modifications,
and
that
means
that
there's
a
lot
more.
That
we
can
do
out
and
about
outside
of
our
homes
and
I,
can
talk
about
some
of
those
categories
before.
B
C
That's
that's
a
great
great
question
and
you
know
we
are
all
counties
in
California
operating
under
the
framework
of
course,
of
the
state's
own
stay
home
order,
and
so
we're
really
in
what
the
state
would
call.
You
know
expanded
or
extended
stage
to
under
their
roadmap
with
respect
to
the
other
Bay
area
counties
with
the
things
that
were
already
opened
on
the
22nd
and
the
things
opening
this
Friday.
We
actually
have
more
things
open
in
Santa,
Clara
County
than
in
many
neighboring
jurisdictions
and
in
terms
of
elsewhere
in
the
state.
C
There's
actually
largely
alignment
in
what
is
open
and
I.
Think
that
sometimes
missed
with
some
of
the
focus
on
some
of
the
specific
things
where
there
may
be
differences
that
actually,
for
the
most
part
there
is,
there
is
alignment
and
in
Santa
Clara
County
in
particular.
Some
of
these
new
categories,
like
the
outdoor,
dining
and
in-store
retail,
are
ones
where
we
actually
have
moved
forward
ahead
of
some
others.
B
Yeah
and
I
think
that's
a
very
important
point
because
it
seems
to
me
just
from
looking
at
where
we
are
compared
to
other
Bay
area
counties
that
we
might
be
perhaps
with
San
Mateo
the
most
open
county
in
the
Bay
Area
I
think
that
there
is
a
very
good
argument
for
that,
and
so
let's
go
through
through
the
the
specifics.
Okay,
so
one
of
the
things
that's
mentioned
is
dining
outdoor
dining
at
restaurants.
Yes,
can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
that?
What
does
that
mean?
Yeah.
C
There
will
need
to
be,
you
know,
distancing
between
tables
and
other
appropriate
safety
precautions
and,
in
fact,
we're
putting
out
guidance
for
restaurants
and
food
facilities.
It's
actually
a
great
opportunity
for
me
to
remind
folks
that
you
know
we
do
every
business,
that's
open,
essential
businesses,
but
even
all
the
new
ones.
C
Now
we
have
in
store
retail
opening
up
with
density
limitations,
in
other
words
the
number
of
people
who
can
be
in
at
one
time,
with
appropriate
protections
and
safety
precautions
for
employees
and
for
customers,
and
so
those
are
of
course
top
of
mind,
but
all
in-store
retail
opening
also
on
Friday.
So.
B
C
Yes
and
some
of
the
important
ones
for
just
to
remind
residents
in
the
county,
face
coverings,
are
mandatory
entering
any
open
business
facility
indoors
or
outdoors,
and
that's
one
very
critical,
concrete
safety
precaution
that
we
can
all
take.
In
addition
to
maintaining
social
distancing
having
outstanding
hygiene.
And
there
are
steps
that
each
business
has
to
take
to
facilitate
that
including
signage,
including
the
protocols
that
I
outlined.
So.
C
If
you've
watched
me
in
the
last
few
Facebook
lives,
you
can
tell
my
hair
has
been
getting
longer,
so
I
understand
the
question
very
much
at
this
time
in
in
Santa,
Clara
County
those
kind
of
direct
personal
services
where
there's
direct,
extended
contact
between
individuals,
not
openings.
That
includes
hair,
but
it's
something
we
all
are
very
cognizant
of.
You
know
the
fact
that
people
want
to
get
a
haircut
and
hopeful
that
that's
something
that
can
happen
soon,
but
not
this
Friday.
So.
C
I
think
there
are
some
other
significant
categories.
One
is
you
know
a
lot
of
these
non
personal
services,
so
not
just
retail
for
goods,
but
also
the
ability
to
to
access
services.
Things
like
you
know,
shoe
repair
or
you
know
getting
items
fixed
things
like
that
that
are
that
are
services
but
they're,
not
direct
personal
services.
C
Those
will
be
opening
up
as
well
all
manufacturing
all
a
child
care,
including
summer
camps
and
there's
guidance
on
that
and
I
know
that's
something
as
a
parent,
that's
something
that
many
of
us
have
been
looking
forward
to
having
opened,
and
so
that's
a
category
not
just
you
know.
Child
care
was
already
open
for
essential
workers
and
workers
and
other
businesses
that
were
open
and
now
that's
opening
up
to
everybody.
So
that's
a
huge
one
and
then
out
direct
other
outdoor
activities,
opening
up
as
well
and
with
the
wonderful
weather
out
there.
B
C
B
C
That's
that's
a
great
great
question.
The
outdoor
activities
are
now
extended
to
allow
interaction
between
a
couple
households,
but
again
outdoors.
You
know
we're
trying
to
encourage
activities
that
are
less
risky
and,
and
so
that's
the
framework
right
now,
but
it's
something
that
I
know
many
many
people
are
curious
about,
in
addition,
outdoor
religious
services
up
to
25
people
with
social,
distancing
and
and
also
drive-in
or
car
based
gatherings,
and
so
those
are
some
other
kind
of
important
categories.
Now.
B
C
So
there
is
specific
guidance
for
summer
camps
and
it
really
revolves
around
this
concept
of
creating
a
stable
group,
a
stable
group
of
no
more
than
12
children
with
you
know,
with
camp
leadership
or
with
an
instructor
or
so
forth
and
and
having
that
group
have
some
stability
for
at
least
three
week
periods
of
time,
and
the
reason
for
that
is,
if
there's
an
exposure
or
a
kovat
exposure,
trying
to
actually
limit
the
number
of
different
households.
That
would
be
impacted
where
there
would
be
spread
to
those
entire
households.
C
So
that's
kind
of
the
the
core
piece
to
that
and
there
is
detailed
guidance
not
just
for
summer
camps,
but
many
other
areas.
I
know
people
have
questions,
you
know
with
the
weather,
for
example,
opening
up
pools
and
some
specific
criteria
are
outlined
for
for
swimming
facilities
and
in
many
other
areas
and
one
of
the
things
we've
tried
to
do
and
it's
a
slightly
different
approach
than
some
other
places
have
taken.
We've
tried
to
really
keep
those
criteria
focused
not
issued.
C
The
state
has
guidance
that
that
industries
and
and
businesses
and
other
open
sectors
need
to
follow,
and
so
we've
tried
to
harmonize
their
to
make
things
as
frictionless
as
possible.
We
know
that
that's
a
lot
for
people
to
sort
through,
so
we've
really
tried
to
keep
it
as
broad-based
and
focused
as
we
can
and
where
we
need
to
have
specific
criteria
based
on
the
input
from
you
know,
based
on
the
decisions
of
the
Health
Officer,
we've
put
those
in
place,
but
kept
them
focused
now
pools.
B
I
know,
that's
a
that's
a
really
big
deal.
You
know
with
the
summer
we're
feeling
the
heat
today
and
we're
opening
pools
yeah
on
Friday
and,
in
fact,
I
think
we
might
be
the
only
County
in
the
Bay
Area
that
that
is
doing
that
I
think
San
Mateo
is
well
based
as
well,
so
will
there
be
rules
that
need
to
be
followed?
We
have
a
public
pool,
that's
open.
How
does
that
work?
Yes,.
C
So
the
we
do
have
a
few
criteria
for
for
pools
focused
on
ensuring
that
there's
social
distancing
between
households-
and
you
know,
four-lane
swimming
that
there's
one
swimmer
per
lane
and
a
few
other
key
criteria
not
having
you
know,
gatherings
on
pool
decks
or
you
know,
use
of
locker
rooms
and
so
those
kind
of
few
criteria
out
there.
Again,
it's
not
pages
and
pages.
It's
really.
You
know
about
six
or
so
key
points
and,
in
addition
to
each
facility
having
its
social
distancing
protocol
I.
B
C
You're
right
there
are
gems
and
other
places
where
there
is
greater
risk
associated
with
interpersonal
interaction
or
use
of
shared
equipment
that
are
not
opening
at
this
time
and
I
know
very
much
that
we
all
hope
to
be
in
a
place
soon
where
those
activities
can
open
as
well.
And
so
we
need
to
together,
as
a
community,
continue
to
make
progress,
stay
stable
in
combat
Inc
ovid,
so
that
all
of
those
things
can
can
return
to,
but
but
know
those
kinds
of
places
where
there's
a
lot
of
shared
equipment.
C
B
Driving
theaters
are
those
allowed.
Yes,
okay,
so
I
know
that
there's
a
chart
that
actually
I
think
it's
very
useful
that
has
all
of
the
activities
that
are
allowed
and
I
think
people
might
be
surprised
by
how
much
is
actually
allowed,
but
one
question
that
I
have-
and
this
is
something
that
dr.
Cody
said
yesterday-
that
because
we're
opening
up
so
much
right
now
that
we're
gonna
wait,
you
know
I
think
three
weeks
before
we
make
the
next
change.
Can
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
sure.
C
C
B
Question
about
process
in
terms
of
future
I
know
that
we're
working
very
hard
to
provide
more
information
about.
You
know,
sort
of
what
might
be
next,
not
necessarily
a
timeline,
but
at
least
some
idea
for
folks-
and
you
just
talked
a
little
bit
about
that,
so
that
people
know
that
you
know
we're
always
thinking
about
how
we
can
get
more
information.
Yeah.
C
C
I,
absolutely
encourage
folks
to
look
at
the
public
health
website
with
detailed
fa,
Q's
detailed
information
that
chart
that
you
were
showing
the
socialism
protocols
the
guidance
that
available
as
well
as
the
data
out.
You
know,
data
dashboards
that
are
updated
daily
and
you
can
see
all
of
that.
But
but
you
know,
I
think
that,
having
you
know
trying
to
map
out
some
very
specific
dates
in
the
future,
when
there's
so
many
moving
pieces
can
give
people
a
false
sense
of
precision.
C
That
being
said,
I
think
a
concrete
thing
that
every
business
can
do
is
to
think
now
about
what
modifications
would
need
to
happen
to
accommodate
the
social
distancing
protocols
and
guidance,
and
that,
based
that
framework
and
those
protocols
and
the
broader
guidance
is
on
the
website
is
available-
is
something
that
everyone
can
look
at.
Even
if
there
are
some
more
specific
criteria
for
a
specific
type
of
sector
that
might
come
later
and
I.
B
Know
that
we
will
continue
to
provide
information
to
businesses.
I
think
one
of
our
next
Facebook
lives
will
focus
specifically
on
outdoor
dining,
so
that
we
can
give
you
more
specifics,
including
the
guidance
that
was
provided,
but
a
lot
is
opening
up.
So
we
want
to
provide
a
couple
of
pieces
of
information
first
to
folks
who
want
to
report
any
concerns,
beginning
with
workers.
There
is
a
number
that
they
can
call
if,
for
some
reason,
as
a
worker,
you
find
yourself
working
in
a
place
where
you
don't
feel
it's
safe.
The
number
is
1/8.
B
Seven:
seven:
two
five,
eight
six,
six,
eight,
seven,
zero,
seven,
seven,
two
five
and
then
for
members
of
the
public
that
would
like
to
just
report
any
concern
around
Cova
19.
Please
go
to
the
following
email:
you
can
email
at
public
health
referral
at
da
o
SEC
gorg
public
health
referral
at
da
o
SEC
org
and
again
we
were
going
to
continue
to
provide
more
information
as
as
this
process
proceeds.
B
One
other
thing-
and
we
have
said
this
before-
is
that
we
know
that
it's
a
very
difficult
time,
there's
a
lot
of
protesting,
that's
going
on
and
we
understand
the
pain,
that's
leading
people
to
do
that.
We
obviously
respect
the
right
that
people
have
to
peacefully
protest
and
simply
remind
them
that
as
they
do
that
to
please
take
precautions.
B
Make
sure
that
you're
protecting
your
own
health
and
the
health
of
others,
by
using
a
face
covering
to
the
extent
possible
to
please
keep
social
distancing
I,
know
that's
difficult
when
you're
in
a
protest
situation
and
then,
if
you
have
been
part
of
a
large
gathering
to
please
make
sure
you're
tested
and
you
can
go
to
FCC
free
test,
org
SEC
free
test,
org
change.
Thank
you
very
much
for
being
with
us.
