C
Finally,
today
seeing
the
USS
Mercy
begin
its
journey
up
north
from
Southern
California
into
the
LA
port,
and
we
looking
forward
to
making
sure
that
ship
is
stocked
and
ready
and
protocols
and
procedures
are
being
put
into
place
as
we
speak
to
make
sure
that
we
prioritize
the
right
group
of
individuals
to
come
on
that
ship
right
now,
it's
working
out
its
ballast.
It's
going
to
take
a
number
of
days.
C
I
don't
want
to
over
promise
when
it's
actually
going
to
appear
in
the
LA
port,
but
it's
being
outfitted,
and
it
was
just
wonderful
to
see
the
ship
leave
today
and
I
just
want
to
thank
on
top
president
United
States.
That
was
a
directive
from
the
president
to
send
it
to
Los.
Angeles
I
also
want
to
thank
the
leadership
of
Los
Angeles,
mayor
Garcetti
and
others
for
their
outstanding
stewardship
and
advocating
for
the
ship
and
making
sure
that
the
protocols
and
procedures
are
well
in
place
before
the
ship
arrives.
C
So
a
lot
of
progress
on
the
ground
and
a
lot
of
progress
here
and
our
Emergency
Operations
Center
over
the
course
of
the
last
few
days.
Let
me
update
you
specifically
on
what
I
mean
by
that
we
are
working
through
our
constant
and
never-ending
iteration
on
looking
at
what's
actually
happening
in
real
time
across
the
state
of
California.
C
We
incorporate
that
planning
exercise
by
utilizing
data
systems,
utilizing
artificial
intelligence
and
basically
laying
out
strategies
on
case
worst
case,
most
likely
case
of
where
kovat
I
Cove
in
nineteen
will
spread
and
what
our
resource
allocation
needs
to
be
again
at
a
county
bottom-up
level
throughout
the
state
of
California.
We
have
updated
our
models
and
as
a
consequence
of
updating
our
models,
we
are
looking
to
significantly
increase
our
procurement
of
assets
specifically
beds
throughout
our
healthcare
delivery
system,
and
let
me
give
you
some
specific
numbers
to
bear
fruit
to
that
effort.
C
We
currently
have
four
hundred
and
sixteen
hospitals
in
the
state
of
California.
We
have
just
shy
of
75,000
licensed
beds.
We
need
an
additional
50,000
beds
in
our
system.
Our
new
modeling
suggests
50,000
is
the
new
target
number
now
here's
what's
already
underway,
some
announcements,
I
made
just
over
the
last
few
days
and
leaning
in
to
some
announcements
we'll
be
making
over
the
course
of
the
next
few
days.
C
Looking
at
some
of
the
outbuildings
on
the
hospital
campuses,
looking
at
the
parking
lots
and
getting
tents
and
providing
emergency
supplies
in
and
around
those
facilities,
the
hospitals
already
came
with
a
surge
plan
of
anywhere
from
15
to
20
percent
of
their
capacity.
They
are
doubling
that
surge
plan
now
phase
one
that
we're
announcing
today
is
a
surge
plan
of
40
percent
within
that
hospital
system.
So
that's
what
the
current
hospital
system
is
now
working
to
address
internally
and
we
feel
confident
in
their
capacity
to
deliver
that
externally.
C
Outside
of
the
hospital
system
itself,
we
are
looking
to
provide
20,000
beds
throughout
our
system.
As
you
know,
the
last
few
days
we
announced
the
acquisition
of
three
major
hospitals
in
the
state
of
California
Seton,
a
Seton
Hospital
here
in
Northern
California
Long
Beach
outstanding
leadership,
their
mayor
community
hospital,
where
they're
moving
patients
much
earlier
than
they
otherwise
would
into
that
facility
and
then,
of
course,
st.
Vincent's
down
in
Los
Angeles.
C
In
addition
to
that,
we
are
in
deep
negotiations
and
will
be
soon
in
contract,
with
a
number
of
other
facilities
throughout
the
state,
again
Northern,
California
and
currently
negotiating
in
the
central
part
of
California
all
told
we've
got
about
3,000
beds.
Now
that
we
have
lined
up
and
identified
in
the
short-term
part
of
the
20,000,
the
state
will
be
responsible
for
identifying
roughly
17,000
I,
don't
mean
to
throw
too
many
numbers
confuse
folks
but
17,000.
We
need
to
start
stacking
in
terms
of
resources
throughout
the
state
of
California.
C
That's
where
we're
identifying
convention
facilities,
Fairgrounds,
we've
identifying
specific
assets
throughout
the
state,
including
motels
and
hotels,
again
not
just
for
homeless,
but
potentially
to
provide
capacity,
including
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
the
like.
So
we're
well
on
their
way
in
terms
of
identifying
those
individual
assets
and
we're
well
underway
of
making
sure
that,
once
the
assets
are
identified,
that
we
can
resource
them
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
staff
them
and
staff
them
with
the
appropriate
levels
of
support
on
protective
gear
PPE
as
we're
commonly
referring
to
that.
C
So
let
me
break
that
down
a
little
bit.
Our
staffing
is
going
to
require
more
flex,
it's
going
to
require
more
capacity,
as
relates
to
existing
ratios.
It's
a
relates
to
existing
current
scope
of
practice,
we're
going
to
have
to
do
more
on
rules
and
regulations
well,
within
our
capacity
to
deliver
and
I
think
for
the
system
to
absorb.
We
are
in
advanced
negotiations
on
more
prescriptive
issues,
around
scope
of
practice
and,
as
relates
to
staffing
ratios,
we
put
out
an
omnibus
executive
order
that
already's
begin
the
process
of
making
changes
to
those
protocols.
C
We
believe
the
ability
to
get
fourth-year
medical
students
into
the
system
in
that
fourth
year,
getting
some
ones
almost
finished,
getting
their
nursing
degree,
get
them
licensed
earlier,
bringing
people
annuitants
back
retirees
back.
All
of
that,
you
start
adding
those
resources
and
we
believe
we
can
meet
the
moment
to
provide
for
the
human
resources
the
staffing
of
those
additional
beds.
We
are
in
addition
to
that,
though,
making
a
case-
and
we
need
to
make
this
case
very
soberly,
and
it's
one
thing
to
provide
the
physical
space
it's
another
to
provide
the
human
resources.
C
C
You
get
the
picture,
we're
talking
in
the
magnitude
of
tens
of
millions,
in
some
cases,
hundreds
of
millions
of
units
of
this
personal
protective
gear.
Let
me
tell
you
why
a
3-month
surge
and,
let's
just
assume
for
argument's
sake,
a
three
months
surge
capacity
within
our
hospital
system
alone,
which
is
just
one
part
of
the
larger
healthcare
delivery
system
that
would
require
that
hundred
twenty-five
thousand
beds,
75
thousand
baseline,
plus
the
50
thousand
surge.
C
That
would
require,
just
in
three
months,
two
hundred
million
two
hundred
million
sets
of
PPE,
that's
again
gloves
and
gowns
and
masks
and
shields,
and
that
would
just
exhaust
itself
in
three
months
so
puts
things
in
perspective
when
you
watching
the
news
or
you're
reading
something
online
about
a
few
hundred
thousand
and
ninety
five
masks
that
come
in
a
couple
hundred
thousand
gowns.
How
quickly
one
goes
through
that
for
every
patient
you
throw
that
PPE
off
for
every
room.
You
throw
that
PP
off.
C
We
have
specific
strategies
in
terms
of
that
procurement
and
logistics,
and
we
recognize
that
we
as
a
nation
need
to
reconcile
the
following,
and
that
is
many
of
us
are
competing
for
the
same
limited
supplies
and
as
a
consequence
of
that,
people
are
tripping
over
themselves
to
make
deals
that
ultimately
are
raising
the
cost
of
these
supplies.
I
was
very
pleased
to
just
watch.
C
President
Trump's
press
conference
and
I
applaud
him
in
our
Attorney
General,
for
going
after
hoarding
and
going
after
price
gouging
and
by
the
way
that
must
be
done
not
just
by
the
federal
government
must
be
done
by
the
state
as
it
is,
and
also
local
government
I'll.
Just
give
you
an
example:
outstanding
leadership,
the
district
attorney
in
San
Diego.
That's
already
been
on
this
filing
cases,
not
just
being
aggrieved
but
actually
moving
on
this
you're,
seeing
that
with
other
municipalities
and
obviously
outstanding
attorney
general
Becerra
who's
on
this
as
well.
C
Don't
want
to
be
in
position
as
a
Californian,
deeply
committed
to
the
people
I
represent,
but
also
as
an
American
citizen,
to
take
advantage
of
our
purchasing
power,
our
market
power
without
addressing
the
legitimate
anxiety
and
needs
of
some
of
these
smaller
state
leaders.
It's
incumbent
to
begin
the
process
of
centralizing
the
procurement.
C
It
is
incumbent
upon
us
to
address
this
issue
in
a
much
more
systemic
way,
we'll
continue
in
the
state
of
California
to
punch
way
above
our
weight,
we're
going
to
be
sending
literally
chartered
flights
from
China
in
to
the
state
of
California
we're
already
working
with
some
of
the
largest
logistics
firms
in
the
world,
FedEx
UPS.
To
do
just
that,
we
are
working
all
our
supply
chains
and
suppliers
and
brokers
and
dealers
from
around
the
world
substa
into
factories
into
China
and
we're
doing
our
part
domestically.
C
We
by
the
way,
have
now
six
California
companies,
six
that
want
to
repurpose
their
facilities
to
manufacture
gowns.
We
just
had
a
conversation
with
25
providers
that
want
to
start
3d
printing
masks
in
the
state
of
California
Elon
Musk.
How
about
this
I
told
you
a
few
days
ago
that
he
was
likely
to
have
a
thousand
ventilators
this
week
it
arrived,
they
arrived
in
Los,
Angeles
and
Elon.
Musk
is
already
working
with
a
hospital
association,
others
to
get
those
ventilators
out
in
real
time.
It's
a
neuro,
ik
effort
energy.
C
We
talked
about
that
a
couple
days
ago:
repurposing
the
ventilators
things
that
would
take
a
month
or
taking
days,
because
people
are
stepping
up
and
stepping
in
and
a
meaningful
and
very
direct
way,
but
the
magnitude
of
what
we
have
to
accomplish.
We
must
do
together
as
a
nation
and
in
the
absence
of
our
capacity
to
centralize
it
nationally
governor's,
we
need
to
start
aligning
ourselves
to
our
purchasing
protocols.
C
In
a
way
where
we
can
bring
down
the
cost
curve
and
also
address
the
anxiety
about
access
and
so
I
just
want
other
governors
to
know,
we
are
committed
to
working
with
you
collaborative
in
that
we've
already
had
a
number
of
conversations
and
we'll
work
through
the
NGA,
the
National,
Governors,
Association
and
others
to
really
formalize
that
process
those
protocols
and
procedures
so
we're
moving
on
all
cylinders.
We
are
very
pleased
and
I
want
to
thank
the
administration.
C
President
Trump
called
me
yesterday
and
told
me
that
we
already
should
expect,
and
he
was
right-
those
field
medical
stations
to
come
into
the
state
of
California
to
arrived,
one
in
Riverside
and
one
in
Santa
Clara
already
now
I've
arrived,
we'll
be
putting
them
up
in
the
convention
center
and
send
Clara
and
down
in
the
fairgrounds
and
Riverside,
and
that
was
part
of
the
eight
that
he
committed
to
the
state
of
California.
We're
grateful
for
that.
C
Remember
that's
2,000
beds
when
all
eight
arrived,
but
two
already
did
arrive
and
we're
already
in
the
process,
beginning
to
resource
and
ultimately
get
those
things
up,
as
we
can
and
I
say
as
we
can,
but
also
mean
as
we
should,
which
is
we
don't
rush
to
do
everything
overnight
to
have
assets
sitting
there
waiting
for
the
surge.
This
is
done
in
a
very
sequential
way,
in
a
very
methodical
way,
in
a
very
deliberative
way.
C
Again,
all
what
we're
referring
to
now
is
phase
one
in
terms
of
our
acquisition
and
procurement
planning,
as
we
bring
these
units
these
numbers
to
life,
so
that
we
could
keep
people
healthy
and
address
the
anxiety
that
many
of
us
are
fearing
or
feeling.
Let
me
just
speak
to
that.
I
had
a
little
anxiety,
as
all
of
you
did,
watching
the
news
of
all
those
folks
and
crowds
on
our
parks
out
there
on
beautiful
California
coast.
C
Normally
that
would
light
up
my
heart
to
see
tens
of
thousands
of
people
congregating
down
in
Malibu
and
other
parts
of
our
beautiful
state,
and
it's
understandable
people's
desire
their
first
weekend
now
with
the
new
stay-at-home
order.
Some
folks
testing
it
and
know
that
one
cannot
condemn
that,
but
one
can
criticize
it.
We
need
to
practice
common
sense
and
so
socially
distance,
and
that
means
we
need
to
help.
You
help
yourself
a
little
bit
more.
C
Those
folks
that
were
making
their
way
out
there
to
recognize
when
you're
on
a
single
track
trail
out
in
our
beautiful
wilderness.
That
single
track
means
going
up
the
mountain
and
down
the
mountain,
which
means
it's
almost
impossible
to
socially
distance
when
you're
out
there
and
you
can't
even
find
parking
at
a
beach.
C
Already
doing,
I
talked
to
a
number
of
Mayors
last
night
that
moved
for
their
City
and
their
county
assets,
particularly
in
the
stressed
areas
of
San
Diego,
Los,
Angeles,
San,
Mateo
County
up
into
Marin
County
and
Sonoma
County,
and
so
we
are
going
to
substantially
advance
what
we
call
these
soft
closures.
There'll
be
some
hard
closures,
but
these
are
soft
closures
to
reduce
the
stress
on
those
beaches.
I
don't
want
to
close
big
beautiful,
open
spaces,
not
when
we're
encouraging
people
to
go
outside
with
intention
and
purpose,
not
linger,
but
to
deal
with.
C
The
health
needs
that
we
all
have
of
being
outdoors
and
taking
a
deep
breath
practicing
common-sense
and
social
distancing,
and
we
want
to
provide
a
forum
for
that.
But
we
can't
see
what
we
saw
over
the
weekend
happen
again.
Local
leaders
are
leading
on
this
I
congratulate
them.
The
state
of
California
will
now
shut
down
all
these
state
parks.
What
does
that
mean
parking
lots,
and
what
does
that
mean?
It
means
nine
of
our
parking
lot
facilities
in
LA
County.
C
To
go
to
our
parks
ca.gov
website
to
get
more
information,
it
will
constantly
update
and
provide
that
information
to
people
that
are
seeking
an
appropriate
time
outside
of
their
home,
but
not
seeking
to
do
what
we
did
this
last
weekend
so
wanted
to
make
that
clear.
We
are
stepping
up
that
enforcement
and
we
are
stepping
up
our
efforts
to
advance
closures.
That
will
indicate
the
importance
of
that
enforcement
by
the
way.
Just
on
a
person
on
I
had
a
friend
of
mine
and
said
boy
I
am
out
here
in
Malibu,
it's
just
incredible.
C
C
It
says
you're
not
stuck
in
traffic
and
you're
on
a
crowded
freeway
and
about
ten
minutes
go
by
and
you
get
about
twenty
feet
closer
to
the
billboard,
and
you
realize
that
billboard
doesn't
just
say:
you're,
not
stuck
in
traffic
in
parentheses,
underneath
that
blazing
headline
it
says
you
are
traffic,
think
about
that
society
becomes
how
we
behave.
You're
not
stuck
in
traffic,
you
are
traffic,
we
are
our
behaviors
and
in
order
to
meet
this
moment,
we
need
to
improve
our
behaviors.
C
All
of
us,
young
and
healthy,
not
just
the
most
vulnerable
citizens
of
the
state
and
the
young
and
healthy,
have
a
unique
obligation
to
the
seniors
to
keep
them
safe
and
you
keep
them
safe
by
practicing
safe
social
distancing,
and
you
can't
do
that
at
a
pickup
basketball
game.
You
can't
do
that
when
you're
recreative,
as
you
have
in
the
past,
so
please
please.
Let
us
all
step
up
our
game
and
recognize
our
obligation
not
to
us
or
ourselves,
but
to
each
other,
to
meet
this
moment
that
fifty
thousand
bed
number
that
I
just
gave.
C
You
assumes
that
we're
doing
that,
we
have
numbers
that
are
substantially
higher.
If
we
don't
I,
don't
mean
that
threatening
way
quite
the
contrary,
I
just
mean
that
in
a
very
sober,
an
honest
way
and
the
purpose
of
just
letting
you
know
we
want
to
bend
that
curve
we
can
than
the
curve,
if
everybody's
out
on
a
beautiful,
Thursday,
Friday,
Saturday
or
Sunday.
C
Let
me
just
close
on
one
additional
point:
there's
been
a
lot
of
talk
about
when
this
will
end,
but
a
lot
of
national
conversations
about
that
and
I
tried
to
be
as
transparent
as
I
can,
based
on
the
expertise
that
we
brought
around
us
and
the
expertise
we
source
on
an
hourly
not
just
daily
basis
here
in
the
state.
But
one
thing
I
know
when
you
have
a
country
that
just
had
a
hundred
deaths
that
we
have
some
trend
lines
that
are
becoming
headlines
that
make
us
very
sober
about
meeting
this
moment.
C
The
reason
we
did
the
stay-at-home
order
and
the
reason
I'm
pleased
that
so
many
other
governors
across
this
country
have
done
the
same.
Is
we
are
trying
to
bend
that
curve
in
real
time?
We
could
talk
about
South
Korea
in
China,
and
it
is
remarkable.
I
was
just
talking
one
of
the
largest
retailers
in
the
world,
their
opening
back
up
their
stores
in
China,
which
is
very,
very
that's
a
wonderful
point
of
optimism.
It's
a
very
good
thing,
but
remember
what
they
did
remember
what
they
did
in
South,
Korea
testing.
C
Everybody
remember
what
they
did
in
China
that
make
what
we're
doing
pale
in
comparison.
If
you
want
to
bend
the
curve,
we
have
got
to
bend
to
a
deeper
understanding
and
meet
this
moment
head-on,
that
we
have
to
act
differently
and
it's
a
sum
total
of
quite
literally
hundreds
of
millions
of
people
acting
differently
to
meet
this
moment,
maximizing
a
little
bit
of
their
inconvenience
in
the
short
term
to
minimize
the
extraordinary
inconvenience
over
the
long
term.
And
so
we
are
looking
at
the
next
eight
weeks
on
our
curve.
C
Maybe
the
next
eight
to
12
weeks
to
address
this
surge
and
again
do
it
in
a
thoughtful
and
pragmatic
way.
Looking
at
physical
resources
and
beds,
looking
at
protective
gear,
including
new
ventilators,
to
make
sure
we
meet
the
needs
in
our
ICUs
and,
of
course,
the
human
resources
that
are
so
critical
to
continue
to
function
as
we
should,
and
you
all
demand
and
expect.
So
some
progress
and
a
little
bit
of
promotion
for
some
better
behavior
from
some
folks.
C
All
of
us
and
a
recognition
that
the
next
week
or
two
we've
got
a
lot
of
work
to
do
and
we're
gonna
have
to
get
very,
very
serious
and
lean
in
and
hit
this
moment
head-on.
And
so
that's
that's
broad,
strokes
updates
for
the
evening
and
of
course
here
always
to
answer
any
questions
from
members
of
the
media.
D
Thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
take
our
questions
today.
Can
you
hear
me
okay,
perfectly
I'm
curious.
Have
you
had
conversations
looking
at
the
enforcement
mechanism
with
local
health
officers
with
mayor's
or
local
supervisors,
for
example,
or
you
yourself
have
you
thought
about
taking
additional
steps
to
increase
enforcement?
Looking
at
this
weekend,
you
know
some
still
aren't
getting
it.
Yeah.
C
C
So
a
couple
observations.
The
vast
majority
vast
majority
of
the
40
million
Californians
did
the
right
thing.
They
didn't
need
to
be
told
to
do
the
right
thing.
They
are
practicing
social
distancing
and
they
are
in
many
cases
operating
in
ways
that
are
inspiring
and
very
very
real
time.
So
I
want
to
acknowledge
that
there
are
some
businesses
that
are
abusing
this
and
we
can
enforce
to
your
question
through
the
licensing
we
can
enforce
through
regulation.
We
don't
just
have
to
enforce
through
traditional
law
enforcement.
C
To
answer
your
question
specifically
last
night
I
had
conversation
with
two
mayor's
specifically
about
their
enforcement
thoughts
and
strategies
and
and
they
at
the
local
level,
are
significantly
enhancing
that.
Let
me
be
specific
about
what
I
told
them
last
night.
I'll
tell
you
this
evening,
just
as
it
relates
to
state
parks
in
particular
that
raised
some
concerns
and
our
beaches.
We
are
significantly
increasing
our
state
park.
C
Patrol
efforts,
we're
not
only
increasing
those
efforts
and
a
formal
way
to
conduct
a
kind
of
collaborative
approach
to
enforcement,
which
is
you
know,
ma'am,
sir,
this
group,
can
you
please
you
know
we
got
to
move
on.
We've
got
to
recognize
this
moment,
that's
social
encouragement,
but
they
also
have
the
capacity
to
find
if
necessary.
C
We
are
also
doing
more
PSAs,
more
public
announcements,
we're
handing
out
flyers
and
we're
doing
more
in
real
time
with
messaging
boards
to
remind
people
at
these
locations
of
what
should
be
expected
of
them
and
we'll
be
doing
a
lot
more
in
this
space.
More
broadly
so
again,
I
I,
don't
want
folks
to
think
we're.
You
know
going
out
there
having
checkpoints
in
every
part
of
the
state.
As
you
know,
we
put
the
500
National
Guard
men
and
women
out
there
over
the
weekend.
They
did
a
magnificent
job.
That's
not
hyperbole!
That's
the
feedback!
C
I
got
from
the
food
banks
for
the
humanitarian
mission.
We
have
California
Highway,
Patrol,
they're,
prepped
part
of
our
mutual
aid
strategy.
So
we
have
protocols
and
procedures
to
help
but
law
enforcement
at
the
local
level
through
the
mechanism
of
stepped-up
enforcement
persuasion
and
then
licensing
and
then
issues
of
information
and
then,
to
the
extent
we
must.
We
have
the
ability
to
cite.
E
Hey
you
told
us
day
over
day
about
the
large
increase
in
unemployment
insurance
claims,
we're
seeing
I'm
wondering
if
you
have
any
concerns
about
the
state
exhausting
its
funds.
Are
we
inevitably
looking
in
a
scenario
in
which
we're
just
gonna
incur
some
federal
debt
to
make
sure
those
workers
are
Mabel
yeah.
C
German,
let
me
maybe
precisely
the
seven-day
average
I
I
think
it's
important
to
be
honest
with
you
about
these
numbers.
The
seven-day
average
for
unemployment
insurance
claims
in
the
state
of
California
is
one
hundred
six
thousand
before
this
crisis
began
to
manifest
as
it
currently
have.
We
averaged
about
two
thousand
five
hundred,
so
two
thousand
five
hundred
one
hundred
and
six
thousand
and
that's
just
week.
C
One-
and
so
yes
is
the
answer
to
your
question:
that's
why
it
is
absolutely
incumbent
upon
Mitch,
McConnell
Republicans
in
the
Senate
leadership
that
is
just
extraordinary
and
demonstrable,
and
our
Speaker
Nancy
Pelosi
that
the
states
get
these
block
grants
and
the
states
have
the
capacity
to
meet
this
moment
without
exhausting
their
unemployment
insurance
fund,
we're
talking
about
potentially
tens
of
billions
of
dollars
and
incur
debt
that
will
come
from
those
funds
if
left
unavailing.
What
I
mean
by
that
without
the
support
of
the
federal
government.
C
G
Hi
governor
thanks
for
doing
this,
so
I
just
want
to
talk
homelessness.
So
earlier
today,
some
officials
in
San
Francisco
were
saying
that
CDC
guidance
is
not
to
move
people
from
the
streets
into
housing
unless
they
have
symptoms
and
also
today,
in
a
press
conference
in
San
Diego
officials,
there
were
saying
that
among
those
1,900
rooms
they're
not
exclusively
for
the
homeless,
so
there
just
seems
to
be
a
little
bit
of
mixed
messaging
from
the
state
and
from
the
locals
and
so
I'd
like
you
to
clarify.
G
C
We've
been
working
with
local
health
officials
and
one
thing
we
all
know
about
California
those
are
covered.
Those
Olivia
one
size
does
not
fit
all,
particularly
as
it
relates
to
the
issue
of
homelessness.
It's
a
bottom-up
issue.
It
is
defined
very
individually
in
a
very
culturally
competent
people
where
they
are
even
outside
of
a
crisis
like
this,
so
within
that
frame
within
that
construct.
Within
that
mindset
we
are
working
with
local
leaders.
I
talked
to
Pro
Tem
Atkins.
C
Today
she
was
working
very
collaborative
with
the
county,
Nathan
Fletcher
supervisor
there
city
leaders
about
how
they're
going
to
use
the
convention
facilities
there
and
the
hotel
rooms
a
little
bit
differently
than
in
other
parts
of
the
state.
So
it
is
a
work
in
progress,
and
most
important
thing
for
me
is
that
we
see
real
progress
in
terms
of
the
number
of
available
units
and
rooms
that
we
procure
and
bring
online,
but
working
with
local
health
officials.
C
We
have
provided
guidelines
as
it
relates
to
triaging
seniors
as
a
priority
of
the
street,
those
with
chronic
conditions
as
priorities
off
the
streets
and
certainly
isolating
as
the
top
health
priority
isolating
that's
the
purpose
of
the
hotel
rooms,
in
particular
those
that
tests
positive
for
kovat
19.
We
have
2400
units,
as
you
know,
from
seven
counties
that
have
been
procured
1,900
in
sent
San
Diego
area
and
you're
correct.
C
These
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
additional
hotel
assets
will
be
made
available
for
homeless
and
we
are
looking
to
procure
them
more
broadly
for
general
population,
but
will
be
advancing
more
specific
guidelines
and
we've
got
a
team
led
by
Jason
Elliot
in
my
office.
That's
working
in
real-time
with
all
the
local
leaders
to
address
their
best
practices
and
share
them
or
address
the
concerns
and
the
ambiguity
that
may
persist
between
counties
in
real-time.
We're
just
a
couple
days
into
this.
H
Hi
governor
thanks
of
doing
this
triple
questions,
one
on
Sunday,
March
13th,
you
mentioned
they
plan
to
get
hot
food
to
seniors
and
to
people
who
are
self
isolating,
possibly
working
with
private
companies.
To
do
that.
Second
question:
are
you
satisfied
that
the
jails
in
the
state
are
doing
enough
to
reduce
inmate
population?
I
know
they've
done
some
stuff
I'm
wondering
if
you
take
a
good-enough
well.
C
It
looks,
as
you
know,
I'm
a
fierce
advocate
for
a
form
of
our
criminal
justice
system
and
laid
out
new
benchmarks
of
expectation
in
my
January
budget
of
what
I
think
that
looks
like
not
just
looking
at
the
work
that
we've
done
in
the
past
decade
here
in
the
state
led
by
former
Governor
Jerry
Brown.
But
one
thing
is
certain
that
we
need
to
meet
the
issue
of
Kovan
19
and
our
prison
and
corrections
system
head-on.
C
I've
had
conversations
back-to-back
with
our
Secretary
of
CDCR
Ralph
Diaz
about
the
protocols
and
procedures
we've
been
preparing
and
anticipating
that
some
of
our
staff
members
may
be
tested.
Positive.
That's
happened,
as
you
know,
and
potentially
some
of
our
inmates,
and
we
had
our
first
positive
test
that
has
happened
as
well.
The
good
news
about
our
Corrections
facilities
and
I'm
talking
out
at
the
state
level.
One
needs
to
amplify
a
broader
mindset,
as
it
relates
to
the
county
level
of
the
jail
level
as
well
is
we
have
very
strong
isolation
protocols?
C
We
have
programs
and
procedures
around
infectious
disease
that
are
more
broadly
defined,
around
isolation
and
testing
protocols
and
the
like,
but
the
scale
and
magnitude
if
this
spreads
quickly
certainly
creates
a
pause
and,
and
that's
why
we
created
a
workgroup,
a
taskforce
around
this
a
few
weeks
ago
that
was
established,
we
are
also
working
very
closely
with
our
sheriffs
at
the
county
level
to
do
a
number
of
things,
look
at
intake
protocols
and
looking
at
augmenting
them
and
looking
at
transfer
protocols
between
prisons
and
augmenting
them.
Those
are
happening
in
real
time.
C
That
then
goes
forgive
me
for
the
long-winded.
Miss
I
want
to
do
justice
to
your
question.
That
goes
to
your
question,
about
releasing
I.
Have
no
interest
in
I
want
to
make
this
crystal
clear
and
we're
releasing
violent
criminals
from
our
system
and
I
won't
use
a
crisis
as
an
excuse
to
create
another
crisis.
I,
don't
see
the
criminal
justice
system
and
Corrections
in
isolation,
I
see
it
as
a
California
issue.
C
Let
me
give
you
specifically
what
I
mean
if
we
start
to
release
prisoners
that
are
not
prepared
with
their
parole
plans,
they
may
end
up
out
on
the
streets
and
sidewalks
in
a
homeless
shelter.
If
we
don't
prepare
people
to
get
back
on
their
feet,
they
may
end
up
in
the
emergency
rooms,
clogging
the
system
that
we
were
trying
to
address
in
the
first
place.
C
We
have
to
be
very
thoughtful
about
this,
so
we're
working
through
those
protocols
and
procedures,
there's
a
lot
of
advocacy
in
this
space,
saying,
let's
just
let
out
tens
of
thousands
of
prisoners
and
that's
not
the
way
we
will
go
about
this.
We
will
do
in
a
very
deliberative
way
and
to
the
extent
we
have
to
have
a
release
valve
which,
at
the
local
level,
you've
been
reporting
about,
and
people
have
been
discussing
all
across
the
country,
not
just
here
in
the
state
of
California.
C
C
Some
of
those
best
practices
are
well
established
here
in
the
state
of
California,
and
we
have
counterparts
reaching
out
to
us
to
learn
more
about
our
own
protocols,
but
I
confidence
right
now
and
the
protocols
and
procedures
but
know
this
is
one
of
top
points
of
concern
and
focus
as
an
administration,
homelessness
seniors
getting
people
to
understand.
They
have
to
meet
this
moment
in
social
distancing
and
corrections.
F
C
We
have
a
number
of
different
tests,
new
protocols
that
are
underway-
that
are
not
part
of
that.
26400
number
that
you
received
this
morning.
In
fact,
on
Wednesday
we
will
be
providing
a
reset
on
the
total
test
and
that
will
go
deeply
to
explain
that
ambiguity
and
deeply
answer
your
question.
All
I
can
say
is
as
a
proof
point
to
this
conversation
I
had
with
the
LA
mayor.
He
yesterday
announced
a
new
testing
protocol.
That's
not
now
been
run
into
the
new
system,
so
we
are
putting
the
system
in
place
in
real-time.
C
We
have
the
system
for
our
22
labs.
We
have
the
system
in
place
for
the
four
original
hospitals
that
were
part
of
the
original
testing
protocols.
We
the
system
in
place,
ProQuest
the
commercial
provider
and
lab
core
the
commercial
provider.
We
now
have
three
additional
hospitals
have
come
online
now
they're
getting
into
this
new
testing
regime,
and
we
are
getting
more
information
from
the
hospital,
so
you're
going
to
get
a
reset
of
that
number
and
you
should
rest
a
short.
Those
numbers
will
substantially
increase.
I
Hi
governor,
thank
you
so
much
I
just
wanted
to
specifically
speak
about
the
National
Guard
being
here
in
California
and
wanted
to
see
if
you
could
specifically
speak
about
what
they
will
be
assigned
to
do,
and
maybe
perhaps
the
last
time
something
that
serious
brought
the
National
Guard
here
to
work.
Well,.
C
I
want
to
acknowledge
another
point
that
was
brought
up
last
night,
president
Trump's
press
conference.
He
has
afforded
three
states
California
being
one
of
those
three
states,
the
ability
and
not
to
direct
the
National
Guard,
that's
afforded
under
our
rules
and
regulations
at
the
gubernatorial
level,
but
to
allow
full
reimbursement
of
the
cost
of
those
deployments.
That
was
a
significant
announcement
yesterday.
Some
may
have
missed
it,
but
it
didn't
change
how
we
organize
our
National
Guard.
He
was
not
federalizing
the
National
Guard
it's
under
the
command
of
the
governor
of
respective
states.
C
Let
me
also
punctuate
that
by
saying
this,
as
we
procure
all
these
things
are
interrelated,
as
we
procure
more
hotels
and
motels
more
sites
for
our
homeless,
we're
able
to
transition
our
winter
shelter
program
which
exists
in
some
of
our
armories
and
bring
back
and
repurpose
the
original
construct
around
armories,
and
that
was
pre
deployment
and
asset
resourcing
for
our
National
Guard,
so
they're,
beginning
to
take
back
some
of
those
facilities
and
allows
them
to
pre
position.
So
they're
able
to
move
on
a
regional
basis
and
a
much
more
efficient,
ineffective
way.
J
Hi
governor
thanks
for
taking
the
time,
can
you
walk
us
through
you
mentioned
the
remodeling
of
how
many
beds
would
be
needed
in
the
hospital
systems
and
we
heard
20,000
additional
beds
just
a
couple
of
days
ago.
Can
you
walk
us
through
how
we're
now
saying
that
we
need
50,000
additional
beds?
Can
you
talk
about
the
change
of
modeling?
That
was
such
a
big
thing.
C
Cream
yeah,
as
I
said
in
the
outset,
we
are
everyday,
adding
to
the
arsenal
of
data
that
we
have
at
our
disposal
and
let
me
be
specific
about
what
that
data
includes,
and
it's
not
only
the
health
data,
that's
provided
by
the
CDC.
It's
not
only
patterns
that
we're
seeing
developed
within
the
state
and
also
outside
the
state,
but
what's
happened
around
the
rest
of
the
country,
John
Hopkins
very
significantly
put
out
their
own
frame.
We
incorporate
all
of
these
things.
C
We
stack
these
data
sets
up
and
we
use
artificial
intelligence
to
run
scenarios
based
on
travel
patterns
within
the
state
within
regions,
utilizing
open
source
we
have
partnered
with
ESRI,
we
have
partnered
with
blue
dot.
We
have
partnered
Facebook
and
others
to
get
open
source
data
and
we
mined
that
data
based
upon
again
these
changing
conditions.
So
in
real
time
every
day,
I
wake
up.
C
I
get
a
dashboard
with
those
data
sets
evolving
based
on
what
happened
today,
last
night
and
what's
happening
around
other
parts
of
our
state
and
around
the
rest
of
the
country,
and
so
that's
where
we
were
yesterday.
We
sat
down
based
upon
the
new
model
and
it
came
in
this
weekend
and
we
said
we
needed
to
update
those
numbers.
We
immediately
went
to
work
working
with
our
Hospital
Association
and
said:
can
we
go
from
that
10,000
bed
surge
and
triple
it
to
30,000
and
they
said
you've
got
it.
C
We
can
get
that
done
within
our
system
and
then
we
went
to
work.
We
had
already
gone
to
work
on
looking
for
at
least
10,000
beds
in
our
system.
We
said
you
know
what
we've
got
to
double,
that
to
20,000.
The
good
news
came
on
the
USS
Mercy
that
helped
good
news
came
with
those
eight
federal
medical
units.
That's
two
thousand
units
that
helped
the
seaton
announcement
helps
st.
Vincent
announcement
help
community
the
hospital
helped.
The
conversations
were
having
CMP
cm
piece
with
Sutter
affiliates,
C
CC
PMC.
C
K
K
C
You
heard
also
reflected
in
the
president's
comment:
I
won't
speak
for
him
and
his
intention
he's
looking
at
a
different
playing
field
than
I
am
looking
from
the
prism
of
the
state
of
California,
but
the
nation's
largest
state
population,
larger
than
dozens
of
states
combined
and
the
world's
fifth
largest
economy.
So
we
clearly
are
operating
under
a
different
set
of
assumptions.
All
the
announcements
I
made
today.
Every
answer
that
I've
tried
to
clearly
in
advance
today
suggests
we
are
moving
in
a
different
direction.
C
So
that's
where
the
state
of
California
is
also
want
to
just
make
this
point
in
the
conversations
which
have
been
many
with
the
president
United
States,
the
significant
support
of
resources
to
these
three
states,
New
York,
Washington
and
California
suggests
an
understanding
very
directly
by
the
President
himself
of
the
unique
challenges
we
face
in
our
States
and
I
have
no
trepidation.
That
would
he
decides
to
do
from
a
national
prism
we'll
get
in
the
way
of
our
efforts
here
at
the
state
level
to
do
what
we
need
to
do
to
hit
this
head-on.
L
Either
thanks
for
taking
my
questions,
governor
Newsom,
you
talked
about
sort
of
the
increased
capacity
from
private
sector
in
regards
to
producing
PPE.
Have
you
how
much
from
your
request
from
the
federal
stockpile
of
PPE?
Have
you
guys
received
I
know
you
talked
about
how
quickly
you've
learned
through
them,
yeah.
C
Let
me
just
give
you
one
specific
example:
without
going
through
the
entire
list,
we
received
350
8095
masks
in
the
latest
transfer
from
the
national
stockpile.
That
was
the
first
of
four
shipments:
25
percent
25
percent
25
25
that
arrived
down
in
our
Riverside
facility
and
now
that
is
being
dispersed
in
real-time.
So
that's
specific,
just
as
an
example
on
the
n95
s,
we
are
told
when
the
next
few
days
the
second
tranche
will
arrive,
but
I
want
to
just
be
sober
and
direct
to
you
and
those
who
may
be
watching.
C
We
are
not
counting
on
the
strategical
stockpile
to
solve
this
problem.
I
made
the
point
that
we
need
200
million,
200
million
sets
that
includes
gallons,
gloves,
masks
and
shields
200
million
just
to
address
the
needs
of
a
hospital
system
alone
over
the
course
of
a
90
day
period.
If
we
are
successful,
getting
125,000
beds
up
and
running,
so
you
do
the
math.
C
If
that
was
the
first
down
payment
and
there's
four
of
them,
we
are
not
near
where
we
are
going
to
need
to
be,
and
that's
why
the
president
vice
president
other
governors
have
recognized
and
have
directed
or
been
self-directed
as
we
have.
We
didn't
wait
to
be
told
we're
out
there
procuring
the
PPE
from
sources
domestically
within
the
state
of
California,
already
repurposing
businesses
that
are
already
stepping
up
to
meet
this
need
and
going
across
the
world
to
address
our
supply
chains
and
I
will
say
this.
It's
a
point
of
pride.
C
I
live
in
a
state
where
27
percent
of
us
are
foreign-born.
I
was
mayor
of
a
city
with
the
first
and
largest
Chinatown
in
the
United
States.
Our
relationships
in
China
are
special
and
unique,
and
I
can
assure
you
as
a
Californian.
That's
a
good
thing
in
terms
of
meeting
this
moment
that
allows
us
points
of
contact
in
the
ability
to
facilitate
brokers
and
distributors,
all
throughout
mainland
China.
That
will
help
us
in
accessing
and
procuring
the
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
millions
of
additional
PPE
that
is
required.
C
I
said
a
billion
gloves:
we've
authorized
our
director
to
procure
that
was
not
a
made-up
number.
That
was
not
a
typo
1
billion
gloves
shields
gowns
in
the
hundreds
of
millions
I'm
trying
to
go,
get
20
million
swabs
right
now,
I
told
you
about
the
incredible
contribution
that
happened
overnight
from
Elon
Musk,
a
thousand
ventilators.
We
just
got
another
thousand
in
10,
ventilators
and
I
forgot
to
mention
a
moment
ago
from
a
recent
purchase,
so
we're
starting
to
stack
up
those
ventilators
we're
starting
to
stack
up
those
resources.
C
If
you're
interested
in
you
didn't
ask
this,
but
just
going
to
offer
it
since
this
crisis
started
to
manifest
twenty
point:
seven
million
twenty
point:
seven
million
n95
masks
have
been
distributed
in
our
system.
We
currently
have
2.5
million.
As
of
an
hour
ago.
These
numbers
changed
on
an
hourly
basis,
2.5
million
still
in
storage,
we're
getting
out
in
real
time.
We
have
fourteen
point,
two
million,
that
we
have
already
identified
and
ordered
that
we're
drawing
down
supposed
to
come
in
on
3:20
seven.
Those
are
specific
numbers.
M
Hi,
governor
understanding
that
this
stay
at
home
order
is
obviously
there's
not
have
an
end
date
on
it.
What
is
the
criteria
that
you're
using
to
evaluate
when
it
will
be
when
you
convicted,
like
we
haven't,
heard
you
specifically
speak
about
how
you're
making
that
decision?
So
is
there
some
specific
number
of
cases
per
day
that
you'll
be
looking
for?
How
are
you
deciding
that?
That's.
M
C
C
But
I've
been
very
honest
with
you
about
the
school
system.
I've
been
very
honest
to
you
about
my
expectation
of
what
we
are
going
to
be
challenged
with
over
the
course
of
the
next
eight
weeks
as
we
prepare
and
trust
me
as
soon
as
I
have
more
clarity
on
all
of
that.
I
will
share
with
you,
as
is
my
obligation.
What
I
share
to
my
wife
and
children
take
care.
Everybody
thanks
be
tonight.
