From YouTube: Governor Newsom's COVID-19 Update - April 24, 2020
Description
Governor Gavin Newsom provides an update on the state's response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The Governor today announced a series of initiatives to support vulnerable older Californians who are isolating at home during California's stay at home order. California is launching a first-in-the nation meal delivery program, a partnership to make wellness check-in calls, and the expansion of Friendship Line California to help combat social isolation. These actions will support the approximately 1.2 million Californians over the age of 65 who live alone.
RESTAURANTS DELIVER- HOME MEALS FOR SENIORS:
This first-in-the-nation program will ensure vulnerable older Californians have consistent access to nutritious meals while staying safe at home. The Restaurants Deliver: Home Meals for Seniors program will enlist community restaurants to prepare meals that will be delivered to older Californians who are isolating at home during California's stay at home order. The program will also support local restaurant workers and owners who have lost business during the pandemic. The program will be administered by local authorities and will serve older Californians who are ineligible for other nutrition programs.
SOCIAL BRIDGING PROJECT:
The Social Bridging Project will mobilize more than 1,000 callers to proactively reach out to older Californians who are isolating at home. The project will combat social isolation through direct, one-on-one communication with older Californians, many living alone and isolated. Listos California is partnering with the California Department of Aging, United Airlines, Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT), and Sacramento State University to make calls to older Californians. Callers will check on the individual's well-being, connect them to resources, and connect with them on a personal level.
FRIENDSHIP LINE CALIFORNIA: 1-888-670-1360:
California is expanding Friendship Line California to support lonely and isolated older Californians across the state. Friendship Line California is toll-free and available to provide emotional support to older Californians facing loneliness, isolation and anxiety. The California Department of Aging is partnering with the Institute on Aging to support this effort.

Been
thinking
a
lot
about
how
we
can
not
only
protect
our
seniors
in
the
state
of
California
a
source
of
deep
focus
of
our
efforts
since
the
beginning
of
this
crisis,
but
also
look
at
the
economy
in
this
state
at
the
same
time,
and
look
at
supporting
particular
industries
that
have
been
ravaged
by
this
stay
at
home
order.
And
today
we
want
to
announce
an
effort
to
address
all
three
issues
at
once.
And
that
is
a
partnership
that
we
have
formed
with
FEMA
over
the
course.
B
We
estimate
that
some
1.2
million
of
our
seniors
in
the
state
of
California
live
alone,
there's
over
5.7
million
older
Californians,
but
1.2
million
live
alone,
socially
isolated,
unable
many
respects
to
cook
their
own
meals,
unable
to
provide
the
kind
of
be
provided.
The
kind
of
nutrition
and
support
that
they
deserve.
B
We've
been
thinking
about
what
we
can
do,
what
more
we
can
do
with
these
extended
stay
at
home
orders
and
the
expectation
that,
even
as
we
begin
to
toggle
back
on
the
stay
at
home,
orders
that
our
seniors
will
continue
to
be
a
focus
of
our
energies
and
our
focus
of
consideration
as
it
relates
to
making
sure
that
they're
truly
protected
in
this
crisis
and
the
expectation
that
our
orders
for
our
seniors
may
come
later.
They
may
lag,
and
so
the
need
to
be
more
aggressive
to
be
more
focused.
B
This
partnership
will
allow
for
the
ability
for
restaurants
to
start
rehiring
people
or
keep
people
currently
employed
and
start
preparing
meals,
three
meals
a
day,
seven
days
a
week
and
have
those
meals
delivered
to
our
seniors,
all
throughout
the
state
of
California.
We
will
provide
an
unlimited
number
of
meals,
no
cap
in
terms
of
that
support,
but
there
is
an
eligibility
cap
for
seniors.
They
must
have
eligibility
in
this
frame.
They
must
either
have
been
at
high
risk
of
exposure
to
Kovan.
B
19
must
be
in
a
position
where
their
economics
are
below
six
hundred
percent
of
federal
poverty
must
have
already
been
impacted
or
exposed
directly
to
kovat,
19
or
more
broadly,
have
compromise
a
compromised
immune
system.
So
there's
a
category
in
this
frame,
but
beyond
that
now
we
have
the
ability
to
have
a
locally
driven
decision
making
to
start
employing
workers
and
get
these
restaurants
reopened
and
provide
hundreds
of
thousands,
if
not
millions,
of
prepared
meals
every
day
delivered
to
our
seniors
throughout
the
state
of
California
the
reimbursements
work
along
these
lines.
B
Sixteen
dollars
for
breakfast
seventeen
dollars
for
lunch
up
to
$28
reimbursements
for
dinner,
so
66
dollars
a
day
will
be
reimbursed.
There's
nutritious
guidelines.
I
keep
saying
nutrition
for
a
reason.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
focused
on
locally
produced
produce.
We
want
to
connect
our
farms
to
this
effort.
B
We
really
want
to
focus
our
values
throughout
the
state
of
California
to
get
a
lot
of
independent
restaurants
up
and
running
again
as
well,
and
have
a
diversity
of
options
and
make
sure
that
what
we're
sending
to
our
seniors
is
low-sodium,
not
high
fructose
drinks
or
sugary
drinks
and
the
like,
and
so
there's
guidelines
that
we're
putting
out
and
we're
just
very
excited
about
this
partnership.
This
partnership
also
can
support
local
government
because
the
generation
of
local
sales
taxes
associated
with
these
purchases
actually
could
start
generating
revenue
and
support
for
the
local
economy.
B
So
it's
one
of
those
rare
areas:
first-in-the-nation
partnership,
where
we're
really
addressing
three
problems
at
the
same
time,
in
a
very
meaningful
day
way,
this
program
goes
in
effect
immediately
and
we're
looking
forward
to
local
government
again
making
the
determination
in
the
decision
of
which
restaurants
are
eligible
for
participation
and
we
work
on
reimbursements.
We
will
work
on
making
sure
that
we're
supporting
local
governments
share
we're
providing
75%
of
the
25%
of
local
governments
requirement
in
terms
of
the
cost
of
this
program.
So
a
very
small
percentage
is
borne
by
local
government.
B
The
state
picks
up
a
disproportionate
share
that
and
again
FEMA
in
our
federal
partnership
picks
up
the
rest.
The
counties
will
identify
those
seniors
that
are
eligible
and
we
continue
to
encourage
people
to
do
two
things.
The
local
level,
if
you're
a
senior-
and
you
believe,
you're
eligible
for
this
program-
call
your
local
two
one
one
and
that
will
be
I.
Think
the
perfect
point
of
contact
to
begin
the
process
of
eligibility.
B
You
don't
have
a
local
2-1-1
in
your
jurisdiction,
go
to
our
kovat
19
ca.gov
website,
Kovan
19,
.
ca.gov
website.
I'm
not
naive
that
everybody
has
access
to
the
internet
or
even
the
2-1-1
call
centers,
so
we'll
be
doing
a
lot
of
outreach
in
partnership
with
our
county
directors
of
our
adult
and
aging
services
and
with
our
cities
to
be
very
proactive
in
promoting
this
program
and
getting
it
up
and
running
over
the
next
days
and
weeks
and
hopefully
seeing
the
scale
throughout
this
state
of
california.
B
This,
we
think,
is
a
real
opportunity
for
rural
California
as
well
some
of
our
favorite
dining
spots
that
may
be
closed
down
large
number
of
seniors,
socially
isolated
in
our
rural
communities
and
begin
to
connect
those
dots
and
again
it's
not
just
about
the
meals.
It's
about
a
human
connection.
It's
about
someone
just
checking
in
as
they're
delivering
those
meals
and
making
sure
people
are
okay,
and
so
it
extends
a
wellness
narrative
and
that's
something
else.
I
wanted
to
speak
to
as
well.
B
Today
we
are
expanding
significantly
expanding
our
wellness
and
outreach
efforts
as
part
of
our
announcement.
Today,
we
are
working
with
the
Department
of
Aging
and
I'll.
Ask
the
director
department
of
aging
up
here
in
a
moment:
she'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
this
program,
but
to
build
on
existing
supports
of
outreach
for
wellness
and
check-ins
in
the
state
of
California,
bring
them
to
a
whole
nother
level.
B
Obviously
those
individuals
are
not
being
utilized
I.
Imagine
you
may
be
saying
well
send
them
over
to
EDD
for
unemployment
insurance
process.
Sene
know
we
have
1340
people
that
we
already
have
transfer
an
additional
350
we're
supporting
those
efforts.
We
can
talk
more
about
that
in
a
moment,
but
we
thought
they
would
be
perfect
because
of
how
they're
organized
and
positioned
to
be
able
to
make
wellness
calls
in
partnership
with
Sacramento
State
and
in
partnership
with
the
Department
of
Aging.
B
In
addition
to
that,
we're
working
with
cert
I
may
have
mentioned
having
the
last
number
of
press
conferences,
cert
and
it's
our
Emergency
Response
Teams
they're,
all
throughout
the
state
of
California
they'll,
provide
an
additional
900
staff,
so
we're
well
in
excess
of
a
thousand
new
folks
that
are
going
to
be
focusing
in
very
deliberatively
on
these
wellness
checks
and
we've
actually
created
what
we
call
a
a
friendship
line.
Eight
eight,
eight
six,
seven
zero
one:
three
six
zero
you'll
see
that
right
on
the
screen.
That's
the
line.
B
People
can
call
just
to
check
in
just
call
to
see
that
well,
not
only
check
in
by
making
that
phone
call,
but
know
that
we
will
have
people
checking
in
on
you
checking
in
to
see
if
they
can
be
supportive
of
your
needs.
You
just
need
someone
to
talk
to
that's
the
line
to
call
you
need
someone,
you
know
to
just
listen
for
5
10,
20
minutes.
You
don't
need
anything
in
particular,
you
need
to
get
something
off
your
chest.
B
You
want
to
share
some
thoughts,
how
you're
feeling
that's
the
line,
and
so
that's
what
we
call
it.
A
friendship
line.
We've
got
great
partnership.
That
line
has
been
up
for
some
time
with
the
Alzheimer's,
Association
and
and
folks
have
been
checking
in
for
people,
dementia
and
other
needs.
We
just
want
to
broaden
that
access
broaden
its
availability
to
a
broader
group
of
individuals,
so
I
encourage
folks
that
may
be
listening
or
watching
to
to
go
to
eight
eight,
eight,
six,
seven
zero
one.
Three,
six
zero
make
that
phone
call!
B
If
you,
if
you
need
a
little
bit
of
emotional
support
or
just
want
to
be
able
to
emote
and
communicate
with
someone
on
the
other
line,
and
so
that's
the
architecture
of
the
framework
of
our
announcement
today.
More
supports
for
seniors,
particularly
those
that
are
required
to
stay
at
home
and
are
the
most
vulnerable
to
this
disease.
B
Also
supporting
our
restaurants
and
our
hospitality
industry,
more
broadly,
supporting
our
communities
in
terms
of
the
economic
activity
that
this
program
will
generate
and
then
making
available
this
resource,
this
new
army
of
volunteers
and
support
staff
to
make
sure
we're
doing
wellness,
check-ins
proactively
and
then
creating
a
line
where
you
can
proactively
reach
out
for
some
support,
emotional
support
and
otherwise
that's
broad
strokes.
But
we
have
a
Kim
Makoi
Wade
who's,
a
head
of
our
Department
of
Aging,
helped
organize
all
this
and
built
these
support.
B
D
Thank
You,
governor
and
I'm
here
today
to
speak
directly
to
older
Californians
and
thank
you
for
really
being
the
heroes.
You
were
the
first
to
answer
the
call
for
our
governor
on
March
15th
to
stay
at
home
and
because
you
answered
that
call,
you
have
driven
the
curve
down
and
you
have
saved
lives
in
California
and
we
are
here,
as
you
just
heard,
to
reaffirm
our
commitment
to
serve
you
to
partner
with
you.
D
We
see
you,
we
see
the
leadership
that
you
have
shown
in
staying
home
in
driving
that
curve
down
being
the
first
to
go
home
on
March
15th.
We
see
the
sacrifice
that
you,
older
adults,
are
making.
You
are
not
at
your
jobs,
whether
it's
in
health
care
or
hospitals
or
the
halls
of
Congress.
You
are
teleworking,
you
are
not.
Volunteering
you're
missing
your
halls
of
worship.
In
this
holy
month,
you're
missing
your
grandchildren.
We
see
you,
we
see
you
and
tragically,
we
remember
all
of
those
who
have
lost.
We
will
not
forget.
D
You
are
not
a
number.
We
know
your
names.
We
want
to
hear
your
stories.
We
are
joining
with
you
and
your
families
and
green
and
you
are
dearly,
dearly,
missed.
Looking
ahead.
We
need
to
continue
saving
lives
here
in
California
and
we
are
moving
with
unprecedented
innovation
and
urgency
in
these
partnerships.
We
know
we
can't
tolerate
the
inequity.
We
are.
D
So
pleased
to
see
the
growing
response
to
homeless
elders,
moving
off
the
streets
and
in
moving
out
of
congregate,
shelters
and
into
more
like
a
home,
we
know
we
can't
tolerate
hunger.
That's
why
we're
so
excited
today
by
the
partnership
with
our
restaurants.
We've
been
delivering
more
meals
than
ever
in
March,
and
it's
going
to
grow
even
more
in
April
and
May.
Thanks
to
these
partnerships
with
a
win-win
for
every
sector
of
our
community
and
as
our
governor
just
said,
we
can't
tolerate
loneliness.
D
Loneliness
is
a
terrible
threat
to
our
health
in
our
community
and
that's
why
we're
here,
all
across
the
state,
we're
up
to
1.7
million,
calls
that
we
can
count
and
now,
with
the
friendship
line,
there'll
be
even
more
calls
even
more
connection,
even
more
human
connection
and
we're
equally
committed
to
bridging
the
digital
divide
for
older
Californians
at
to
living
at
home
in
senior
living.
The
digital
divide
also
has
to
be
bridged.
D
Last
but
not
least,
I've
got
to
give
a
shout
out
to
the
gerontology
students
who
are
really
showing
us
that
we're
all
in
this
together,
all
across
generations,
young
and
old,
coming
together
to
feed,
to
talk
to
connect
to
stay
home,
stay
healthy,
stay,
safe,
I'm,
so
proud
that
California
believes
in
the
California
for
all
across
the
lifespan,
for
that
eight-year-old,
who
has
a
learning
challenge,
who
is
at
home,
struggling
with
school
learning
to
that
80
year,
old,
who's,
widowed,
who's
now
living
alone?
We
are
here
for
you.
D
B
Thank
you,
Kim,
thank
you
for
your
leadership
and
your
team
and
support,
and
thank
you
for
recognizing
those
family
members
that
have
been
torn
apart
because
of
a
loss
of
a
loved
one,
again
disproportionate
number
of
our
seniors
vulnerable
to
kovat
19,
and
it's
just
an
opportunity
and
a
reminder,
as
always
to
make
this
fundamental
point,
even
if
you
feel
you're
young
and
healthy,
and
you
are
somehow
not
necessarily
at
high
risk
of
this
disease.
I
want
to
remind
you.
B
There
are
others
that
you
may
love
family
members,
people
and
your
direct
circle
of
friends
and
relations
that
may
be
more
vulnerable,
but
none
more
precious
than
our
seniors.
The
folks
that
raised
us,
the
folks
that
built
our
middle
class
and
the
most
precious
resource
we
have,
and
so
we
are
committed
to
their
health,
to
their
safety
and
working
through
these
new
guidelines
in
these
new
partnerships,
I
think
we
have
substantively
advanced
this
cause
again.
The
eligibility
requirements
will
be
put
out
at
local
and
county
level
up
and
down
the
state.
B
These
are
for
people,
otherwise
ineligible
for
other
programs
are
not
getting
support.
Meals
on
Wheels
can
only
do
so
much,
so
this
is
a
variant
on
the
incredible
work
Meals
on
Wheels
does,
but
at
a
huge
scale
that
we
think
can
make
a
huge
impact
in
the
lives
of
potentially
millions
of
Californians,
both
on
the
service
delivery
side
and
on
the
recipient
side
itself.
First
in
the
nation,
and
again
deep
gratitude
to
the
partnerships,
including
the
incredible
partnership
with
FEMA
and
the
federal
government
for
allowing
us
to
be
the
first
to
set
up
this
program.
B
The
good
news
in
terms
of
the
numerical
statistics
to
which
we
again
attach
a
lot
of
consideration
in
terms
not
only
of
our
daily
briefings
but,
more
broadly
in
terms
of
monitoring
our
capacity
to
begin
to
augment
and
modify
our
stay
at
home
orders,
hospitalizations
and
ICU
numbers
hospitalizations
were
flat
yesterday,
no
statistical
growth.
Again,
you
saw
yesterday's
decline
from
the
previous
day
today,
we're
seen
with
that
decline,
flattening
so
some
stability.
We
continue
to
say
stability
in
our
models,
but
particular
in
hospitalizations.
That's
good
news.
B
Accordingly,
ICU
numbers,
which
were
down
yesterday
they're
slightly
up
but
just
1%,
which
again
is
encouraging.
I
mentioned
this
yesterday
that
there
were
four
things
that
happened
all
at
once
that
we
had
not
seen
since
the
beginning
of
this
pandemic,
and
that
was
not
just
hospitalization
numbers
down
the
day
before,
but
also
ICU
numbers
and
those
people
under
investigation.
B
Good
news
is
three
of
the
four
indicators
showed
a
flattening
or
decline.
Only
the
ICU
numbers
showed
an
increase.
The
number
of
PU
is
four
ICUs
dropped.
Slightly
so
did
hospitalizations
so
again,
some
encouraging
signs,
but
we're
not
by
any
stretch
of
the
imagination.
In
a
position
to
say
that
those
six
indicators
to
which
we
make
our
determination
about
the
future
of
our
stay
at
home
orders
that
any
new
lights
are
yet
green.
We
were
able
just
48
hours
ago
to
make
the
announcement
as
it
relates
to
scheduled
surgeries.
B
That
was
the
first
augmentation
on
our
way
to
ultimately,
you
know
ultimately
producing
the
kinds
of
augmentation
that
all
of
you
expected
demand
as
it
relates
to
our
stay
at
home
orders.
But
we
continue
to
be
vigilant
in
the
other
spaces
and
we
continue
to
monitor
information
as
it
comes
in
real-time
from
all
across
the
state
of
California.
B
Remind
you
what
I
said
yesterday
and
the
day
before
I
recognize
California
is
despite
it
being
a
state
is
many
parts,
and
that
means
we
recognize
the
incredible
imperative
and
importance
of
recognizing
regionalisms
regionalism
and
how
local
conditions
are
distinctive
from
one
another.
All
the
information
I
gave
you
as
I
do
on
a
day
like
this
is
in
the
aggregate.
B
So
with
that,
you
just
wanted
to
again
I
know
some
very
good
news
in
terms
of
this
broader
program
and
the
new
procedures
we
put
in
place
with
our
local
partners.
We
look
forward
to
supporting
mayors
and
county
leaders
in
this
project
as
we
grow
and
as
we
expand
it,
we
continue
to
recognize
the
importance
of
addressing
the
needs
of
social,
those
socially
isolated
and
their
mental
health
needs,
and
that's
what
this
friendship
line
was
all
about
and
I
continue
just
want
to.
B
Thank
all
the
partners
that
came
around
the
table
of
course,
the
last
few
weeks
to
help
put
this
partnership
together,
so
that
we
can
make
the
announcement
before
I
open
up
the
questions
as
we
do.
We
always
want
to
ask
before
I
end,
and
that
is
to
ask
you
if
you
are
willing
to
help
and
support,
not
only
the
causes
we
announced
here
today,
but
more
broadly,
the
cause
I
think
that
unites
all
of
us
and
that's
the
cause
of
contribution.
B
Just
a
few
days
ago,
we
announced
the
Californians
for
all
CA
gov
website
Californians
for
all,
not
ca.gov
website,
I
told
you
we
had
over
20,000
people
call
in
that
first
day
we
are
over
now,
26,000
of
you
have
filled
out
the
application
and
have
begun
the
process
of
contributing
and
volunteering
in
your
community.
I
just
want
to
thank
all
of
those
that
have
done
so
and
extend
a
heartfelt
expression
of
appreciation.
I
hope
others
will
consider.
You
continue
the
same
one
final
point
and
then
I
will
turn
it
over
to
questions.
B
I
also
just
want
to
thank
everybody
that
helped
organize
a
program
we
announced
it
seems
a
week
ago.
Maybe
it
was
a
week
and
a
half
or
so
ago.
We
talked
about
care
for
the
caregivers
and
the
importance
we're
placing
on
taking
care
of
our
caregivers,
particularly
those
that
are
supporting
our
seniors
and
assisted
living,
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
the
like.
We
announced
two
programs,
the
stipends
$500
stipends,
that
we're
providing
these
cards
that
we
were
distributing
to
thousands
and
thousands
of
our
health
care
workers
and
I
I
announced
those
numbers
a
couple
days
ago.
B
An
unprecedented
number
of
people
that
will
be
getting
the
benefits
of
those
stipends,
but
I
didn't
mention
the
number
of
people
that
got
the
benefit
of
our
hotel
rooms,
though
Hotel
nights
and
the
need
to
decompress
to
take
a
shower
to
change,
to
not
have
to
stay
the
night
in
your
car
or
at
a
friend's
house.
Because
of
the
commute,
the
folks
that
truly
are
on
the
front
lines.
We
want
to
help
them
just
remarkably.
B
In
a
very
short
period
of
time,
the
state
has
already
procured
56,000
room
nights
that
had
been
completely
100%
reimbursed,
56,000
room
nights
to
truly
manifest
the
Freys
care
for
our
caregivers
and
I.
I.
Just
want
to
thank
a
team
that
helped
organize
that
program
and
and
I
just
want
folks
to
know.
We
are
following
through
on
that.
It's
scaling.
B
Some
19,000
people
now
have
filled
out
applications
we're
trying
to
turn
them
around
like
we
are
so
many
other
applications
in
real
time,
but
thousands
of
people
have
taken
advantage
of
it
and
we
hope
thousands
more
will
in
the
future,
not
every
one
of
those
that
inquire
for
the
benefits.
This
program
get
100%
reimbursement.
Again,
we
grade
the
complete
contribution
from
an
individual
and
the
state
based
upon
income,
but
the
56,000
number
is
100%
reimbursement.
Thousands
others
are
paying
a
small
percentage.
People
with
higher
incomes,
also
getting
the
benefit,
but
on
a
sliding
scale.
B
So
I
just
thought
that
was
important
to
update
you
on,
so
that
you
know
things
that
we
announced.
We
just
want
to
keep
you
connected
to
not
only
the
cause
but
to
the
progress
and
know
we
are
holding
ourselves
accountable
to
progress
in
that
space
as
well
and
by
the
way
that
includes
progress.
We
made
that
I
announced
last
Saturday
a
project
room
key
for
our
homeless,
and
we
continue
to
get
more
and
more
rooms
every
day,
more
and
more
people
off
the
streets
out
of
congregate
facilities
in
into
those
housing
units
as
well.
B
F
Afternoon,
governor,
you
said,
looks
like
next
stay
at
home.
Orders
for
seniors
will
likely
be
slower.
Do
you
envision
it
being
based
solely
on
age
like
it
was
at
the
start
of
this
whole
thing
for
those
over
65
when
they
were
told
to
stay
home?
Do
you
expect
to
be
a
combination
of
antibody
and
other
virus
testing
and
on
the
cost
side,
you're
saying
millions
of
Californians
could
benefit
from
this
for
DMV
$66
a
day?
Is
there
an
estimate
for
the
cost
of
this,
and
given
that
they
might
stay
home
longer?
F
How
long
you
expect
to
have
to
provide
these
meals?
You
know
until
they
can
leave
their
homes
again
work,
or
is
there
a
vision,
timetable
here
and
if
you
get
our
expense
cost
actor
a
little
bit
as
well
on
who's?
Picking
up
this
FEMA
75%,
it
sounds
like
in
a
seventy
five
percent
of
the
state.
Again
the
governor,
the
local
governments
cost.
If
I
understood
you
correctly
thanks.
Thank.
B
You
yeah
no
and
I
appreciate
thank
you
for
the
question
and
you
answered
at
least
one
portion
of
your
question
very
accurately.
Seventy-Five
percent
reimbursement,
the
twenty
five
percent
there
is
a
local
share
of
which
we're
picking
up
75
percent
of
the
twenty
five
percent.
I
know
these
numbers
can
sound
confusing,
but
it's
a
relatively
modest
share
at
the
local
level
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
if
nificant
sales
of
food
we'll
see
sales
tax
generation
at
the
local
level,
that
should
more
than
offset
the
local
costs.
B
We
are
going
to
be
yes,
particularly
sensitive
as
it
relates
to
any
augmentation
on
our
stay
at
home,
orders
to
protect
those
that
need
most
protection
and
so
I
think
it's
just
an
honest
statement,
not
surprising
I,
think
to
anybody
that
we
would
suggest
the
first
orders
to
begin
to
augment
and
modify
the
stay
at
home
are
not
likely
to
be
our
seniors.
It
certainly
won't
be
people
congregating
in
large
events
in
large
crowds,
mixing
I.
G
B
Let
me
ask
in
fact
just
because
they're
here,
dr.
Ghali
is
here
who
worked
with
dr.
angel
that
initially
started
engaged
in
these
conversations.
Some
time
back.
They
could
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
those
specific
conversations
and
talk
a
little
bit
more
specifically
about
why
they
thought
it
was
important
to
begin
to
clawback
with
a
little
more
forensic
understanding
of
when
we
can
mark
a
moment
where
this
virus
came
to
the
state
of
California
and
why
that's
important
from
an
epidemiological
perspective
and
in
terms
of
informing
our
strategy
and
our
next
steps.
So
dr.
B
E
Thank
you
for
this
Congress,
the
the
question.
It
is
very
important
and
as
we
look
forward
to
really
understand
what
happened
at
the
beginning
of
this
whole
process,
as
we
heard
very
recently,
an
investigation
of
additional
cases
in
Santa
Clara
demonstrated
an
earlier
case,
and
that
was
because
of
the
coroner
at
that
point,
as
they
were
doing.
Their
investigations
had
noted
that
an
infection
could
in
fact
have
been
associated
with
the
case
that
was
seen
at
the
state.
E
We
are
also
looking
very
carefully
across
and
matching
look
matching
our
cases
with
the
reports
that
were
coming
from
coroner's
to
make
sure
that
we
are
not
missing
any
example,
cases
that
are
related
to
a
death
if
that
death
has
not
been
identified
as
being
related
to
kovat
19.
We
are
investigating
that
further.
B
H
We're
at
the
end
of
the
week,
and
just
a
few
days
from
the
new
month
to
start
and
on
document,
if
you're
still
don't
know
when
they're
going
to
get
their
disaster
relief
assistance,
money
I
know
that
website
says
that
the
state
of
the
distribution
will
be
mentioned
by
next
week.
But
people
want
to
know
what
date
now
I
know
some
of
them
don't
have
money
to
eat
normally
right.
H
B
The
CBO's
will
make
that
determination
at
the
local
level.
Again,
five
million
dollars
on
a
regional
basis
is
the
minimum
contribution
to
CBO's
throughout
the
state.
You'll
see
substantially
more
supports
for
those
with
higher
density
of
population
that
are
eligible
again.
Individuals
and
families
are
eligible
and
we'll
do
our
best
to
broaden
this
program
working
with
philanthropy,
not
just
with
my
colleagues
in
the
legislature,
who
have
been
incredibly
supportive
of
this
program.
B
I
just
want
to
remind
you
and
I,
also
want
to
compliment
very
publicly
the
Asian
Caucus
and
the
Latino
caucus
and
the
black
caucus
for
their
support
of
this
effort
for
their
urging
of
the
creation
of
this
program.
As
you
know,
we've
been
sued
in
this
program
and
we're
doing
everything
our
best
to
make
this
work
and
to
get
this
information
out
in
a
timely
basis.
The
website
made
the
indication
about
next
week
for
a
reason,
and
we
are
very
eager
to
get
a
specific
data.
B
As
I
know,
you
are
eager
to
distribute
that
day
when
I
have
it.
I
will
provide
it
for
you
and
we
are
in
real-time
trying
to
get
that
information
out
as
quickly
as
possible,
but
we
just
announced
this
a
few
days
ago,
and
now
we
are
reorganizing
at
the
local
level,
all
throughout
the
state
of
California
puttin.
All
of
the
points
of
contact
and
prioritization
and
get
all
that
information
out
as
quickly
as
possible.
So
anticipate
we'll
be
answering
that
question
I
hope
as
early
as
Monday
of
next
week.
I
Good
afternoon
governor,
this
is
actually
the
same
thing
in
two
parts.
I
got
a
press
release
from
Senator
winters
office
today
and
I'm,
going
to
quote
part
of
it
he's
talking
about
the
fact
that
neither
the
federal
government
nor
state
government
is
Cloyd
is
collecting
data
on
a
pandemic,
direct
impact
on
the
LGBTQ
community
and
in
general,
these
senators
saying,
with
the
communities
being
ignored
and
as
to
go
with
that
before
the
pandemic
struck.
A
disproportionate
amount
of
the
LGBTQ
high
community
are
on
the
gig
economy.
B
I
respected
I'm,
not
sure
those
jobs
were
killed,
but
I
appreciate
the
broader
concern.
Let
me
speak
to
the
broader
concern
on
April
28.
Those
P
u-ace
talked
about
PU
is
a
moment
ago.
These
are
the
pandemic
unemployed.
Assistant
grants
that
are
coming
from
the
federal
government
will
start
being
distributed
in
the
state
of
California.
Every
24
to
48
hours
will
turn
around
those
those
checks
as
soon
as
we
get
this
system
up
and
operationalized.
B
As
you
know,
those
are
the
individuals
that
otherwise
are
not
eligible
for
unemployment
insurance
that
are
in
that
workforce,
independent
contractors,
gig
workers,
but
also
those
that
are
self
employed,
and
so
that
system
is
being
architected.
We
announced
that
very
prescriptively
about
a
week
or
so
ago,
and
we
are
going
to
hit
our
target
date
and
I'm,
confident
we'll
be
able
to
turn
around
checks
by
the
way
within
again
24
to
48
hours.
The
traditional
UI
process
is
about
a
21
day
process,
so
it
will
be
even
more
successful.
B
Turning
this
around
quicker
as
it
relates
to
the
LGBTQIA
issues
and
making
sure
that
we're
breaking
down
data.
That's
very
important
to
me:
I
I,
for
the
life
of
me,
I
hope
people
aren't
accusing
even
my
friends
and
the
legislature,
not
deep
sensitivity
and
deep
compassion
and
concern
for
the
unique
needs
of
the
LGBTQ
community
has
been
big
cause
of
my
life
and
a
big
reason.
Why
I'm
able
to
answer
the?
Why
question?
Why
am
I
even
interested
in
public
service?
B
It's
one
of
the
reasons
I
care
deeply,
because
I
care
about
all
communities
that
have
been
impacted
and
oppressed
and
disproportionately
are
struggling
because
of
race,
ethnicity
and
sexual
orientation.
So
I
have
dr.
angels
here
who
has
also
made
this
the
cause
of
her
life,
and
she
perhaps
could
talk
a
little
bit
more
specifically
about
what
our
data
collection
does
look
like
and
what
it
will
look
like,
as
we
march
forward
into
the
future.
E
Thank
you
so
much
for
that
very
important
question.
Absolutely
inequities
or
lack
of
access
to
care
across
the
spectrum
of
our
populations
is
of
primary
concern,
particularly
in
the
face
of
Cova
19.
Our
LGBTQ
community
also
deserves
and
needs
to
have
that
data
to
understand
and
for
our
communities
to
be
able
to
act
and
respond
accordingly.
This
data
can
be
difficult
to
collect
through
our
current
standard
mechanisms
of
reporting,
because
this
is
information
that
is
not
necessarily
reported
regularly.
Very
much
like
the
data
that
we're
collecting
around
race,
ethnicity.
E
These
are
things
that
we're
looking
very
carefully
at
and
looking
at
ways
of
improving
our
system,
so
that
we
can
get
this
information
into
the
hands
of
people
who
can
take
action
on
it
ourselves
and
our
local
county
authorities
as
well,
so
we'll
be
reporting
back
to
you
for
methods
that
were
coming
up
with
that
and
again.
Thank
you
for
your
question.
This
is
incredibly
important
to
ourselves
as
an
administration
and
as
a
state.
J
Thank
You
governor
California
saw
a
significant
increase
in
its
testing
numbers
this
week
as
compared
to
other
states
when
adjusted
for
population
going
from
a
ranking
of
48
last
week
up
to
27
this
week.
What
accounted
for
the
increase
specifically
and
if
California,
continues
to
improve
its
testing?
Will
the
state
be
more
likely
to
be
one
of
the
first
to
reopen
yeah.
B
I
think
if
we
are
able
to
substantially
increase
the
testing,
it's
still
not
good
enough.
We
need
to
do
a
lot
more
for
94
thousand
plus
tests
have
been
conducted
to
date.
We
want
to
see
multiples
of
what
we're
doing
on
an
average
day
into
the
future.
We
have
been
very
very
specific
about
those
goals
almost
on
a
daily
basis
and
for
purpose
of
emphasis.
Repetition.
Let
me
continue
to
remind
you
and
others
of
what
those
goals
are.
We
averaged
about
2000
tests
a
day
through
the
end
of
March.
B
We
hope
to
be
averaging
25,000
tests
a
day
by
the
end
of
this
month,
we're
well
on
our
way
of
achieving
that
goal,
we're
north
of
16,000
a
day
as
I
speak.
We
are
making
progress
for
one
reason
we
took
responsibility
and
we
took
initiative
took
responsibility
for
not
doing
a
month
enough
in
this
first
few
weeks
and
started
to
recognize
we
needed
to
change
the
way
we
approached
this
issue.
We
put
together
a
task
force
led
by
some
of
the
top
people
we
could
find
in
this
space.
B
That
happened
to
reside
in
this
state,
but
some
of
the
top
in
the
country,
folks,
researchers
and
scientists,
folks
and
the
frontlines
from
our
medical
institutions
and
research
institutions
and
private
sector.
They
put
out
a
framework
of
new
goals,
April
14th,
their
goal
was
10,000
tests
a
day
we
were
able
to
exceed
that
and
their
goal
with
25,000
at
the
end
of
the
month
and
I'm.
Confident
we'll
do
the
same.
Just
two
days
ago,
dr.
Ghali
came
up
here
and
talked
about
the
need
to
get
to
60
to
80,000
tests
a
day.
B
Why
60,000
well
we're
working
off
basis
of
152
tests
per
every
100,000
individuals,
you
assume
40
million,
californians,
plus
or
minus
that's
about
sixty
thousand
eight
hundred,
we
roughly
60,000.
We
think
we
can
go
north
of
sixty
thousand.
That's
why
the
sixty
to
eighty
thousand
range
I
mentioned
two
days
ago
that,
with
all
the
instruments
that
we
have
in
the
state
of
California
today,
if
we
were
at
full
throttle
everybody
operating
without
consideration
of
supply
supplies,
reagents
tubes,
RNA
extraction,
swabs.
We
can
be
running
today
at
ninety
five
thousand
tests.
B
So
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
our
capacity,
but
again
supply
constraints
continue
to
limit
that
I
mentioned
24-48
hours
ago,
as
some
of
the
supply
chain
improvements,
some
swabs
that
came
in
from
the
federal
government
that
are
quite
literally
being
distributed
as
I
speak
today.
Ninety
thousand
that
we
announced
yesterday,
we
hope,
see
another
two
hundred
fifty
thousand
swabs
next
week.
That's
for
specimen
collections,
I
mentioned
the
partnership
with
Abbott
1.5
million
serology
tests
that
we
procured
that
we'll
be
distributing
to
130
sites
in
the
state
of
California
I
mentioned
two
days
ago.
B
The
specific
partnership
we
announced
with
up
and
serve
for
80
sites
mobile
sites
and
to
end
sites
that
are
being
distributed
in
rural
parts
of
the
state
and
inner
cities
in
this
state
and
how
those
are
being
distributed
in
real
time
and
the
partnership
with
verily.
That's
the
old
partnership
with
verily
subsidiary
of
Google
to
do
six
additional
sites
to
focus
again
on
socio-economic
disparities
and
make
sure
we're
truly
testing,
California,
broadly
defined,
not
just
parts
of
California
and
those
that
somehow
have
the
privilege
of
getting
ahead
of
the
line.
B
So
we're
democratizing
testing
we
lifted
the
threshold
of
who
could
be
tested.
Not
just
symptomatic,
went
further
than
the
CDC
guidelines
when
the
first
states
to
do
that,
and
so
forgive
me
for
the
long
witness
I
think
it's
just
important
to
remind
people
where
we
are
in
the
testing.
The
answer,
specifically,
your
question
is
yes.
If
we
can
broaden
the
testing,
that's
the
indicator
number
one.
B
That's
something
I
have
been
cautioned
directly
about,
and
it's
something
I
want
to
exist,
extend
a
point
of
caution
and
consideration
to
all
of
you
as
well.
So
all
of
those
things
together
sort
of
stack
up
to
a
frame
where,
yes,
we
believe
more.
We
can
do
in
this
space
much
more
than
we're
currently
doing
yes,
the
quicker.
Then
we
can
start
connecting
more
green
dots
in
those
other
indicators
that
we
laid
out
on
Wednesday.
K
Governor
you've
sent
the
National
Guard
to
four
senior
nursing
facilities
in
Los
Angeles
County
over
the
recent
days.
Can
you
talk
about
that
deployment?
Talk
about
what
the
criteria
are
for
employment,
two
additional
sites
and
talk
about
what
you
hope
them
to
do,
and
and
why
probably
prompted
you
how
big
of
a
crisis
you
think
that
is
no.
B
I
appreciate
John
the
issue
of
our
seniors
and
it's
the
topic
today
and
and
and
it
won't
be
fully
discussed,
we
didn't
bring
up
our
skilled
nursing
facilities,
our
assisted
living
centers
I'll,
just
remind
not
you
but
others
that
we
have
1224
skilled
nursing
facilities
in
the
state
of
california.
We
have
an
additional
seven
thousand
461
facilities
that
are
licensed
outside
of
the
sniffs
that
we
also
have
to
organize
around
it's
a
remarkably
large
system.
Imagine
the
largest
anywhere
in
the
United
States.
B
We
have
hundreds
of
thousands
of
patients
in
that
system
and
tens
of
thousands
of
staff.
As
you
know,
and
you
have
been
doing
some
outstanding
reporting
in
this
space.
We
have
seen
flare-ups
in
terms
of
the
total
number
of
positives,
not
just
patients,
but
also
staff
members,
all
throughout
the
state
of
California,
not
just
in
Los
Angeles
County,
but
in
rural
parts
of
the
state,
in
particular,
Tulare
County,
being
one
of
the
hot
spots
of
concern.
B
So,
forgive
me
the
long
winningest,
but
the
answer
to
your
question
is
the
reason
why
we
deployed
and
sunday-monday
the
National
Guard
and
those
Medical
Teams,
was
to
help
support
the
efforts
to
isolate
conduct
tests
and
to
make
sure
that
we're
sharing
best
practices
and
protocols
within
the
system,
particularly
for
those
sites
that
we
identify
as
more
acute
in
need.
How
do
we
identify
those
sites?
B
Well,
we're
doing
daily
checking
calls
it's
not
an
exaggeration
old-fashioned
calls
to
all
1224
skilled
nursing
facilities,
those
happen
every
single
day,
regionally,
they're
done
and
there's
a
check-in
and
we're
checking
in
on
staff.
We're
checking
out
a
number
of
positive
patients
and
checking
in
to
the
extent
possible
on
these
deaths
and
those
death
numbers
I
know
are
important
to
all
of
us
and
we're
trying
to
do
our
best
to
provide
them.
You
saw
some
of
the
numbers
we
put
out
just
yesterday,
so
we
have
a
strike
team
that
we've
doubled.
B
B
Final
point:
we're
also
working
with
the
with
the
naming,
the
USNS
and
some
of
the
personnel
on
that
ship
to
also
come
into
the
community
to
be
redeployed
to
help
also
support
these
efforts.
So
what
was
a
simple
question?
Forgive
me
became
a
more
complicated
answer,
but
it's
a
profoundly
significant
issue.
One
of
the
first
points
of
guidance
we
put
out
executive
orders
was
in
this
space
and
right
now,
John
and
four
others
that
may
be
watching
as
of
yesterday
I'm
getting
the
new
numbers
today.
B
We
are
currently
providing
information
on
all
of
those
7,000
461
licensed
facilities
under
Department
of
Social
Services
of
those
sites
that
have
six
patients
or
more
we're
also
working
hard
to
get
into
those
smaller
sites
where
there's,
maybe
just
one
or
two
patients,
don't
be
patient
because
none
of
us
should
be
I'm
not,
but
when
that
information
is
available,
we'll
also
be
providing
that.
But
there
are
HIPAA
issues
there.
C
Good
afternoon
governor
thanks
for
taking
my
question
last
week,
you
discussed
the
check-in
app
or
initiative
and
secretary
Julia
sue,
discussed
the
new
app
to
assist
people
filing
for
pandemic
unemployment
assistant.
Can
you
elaborate
on
those
two
initiatives
or
apps
and
what
companies
work
with
the
state
to
develop
them,
and
let
me
know
when
check-in
went
live
and
who
at
the
state
uses
it
good.
B
I'm
gonna
get
you
the
company's
name
on
those
apps
we'll
provide
that,
for
you,
I
see
folks
behind
the
camera
that
are
making
notes
and
so
will
directly
get
that
information
to
you
as
soon
as
we
pull
that
down.
I
just
broadly
want
to
make
this
point
about
apps
I
kid
you
not
it
I
said
this
a
few
days
ago.
I
said
this:
you
know
it's
a
treasure
trove
California.
B
This
is
what
we
do
best
and
we
provide
platforms,
but
we
also
have
so
many
folks
mashing
things
up
using
open
data
using
prior
Terry
data,
putting
up
apps
all
these
new
api's
every
day,
and
it's
very
enlightening
exciting.
The
problem
is
it's
a
wealth
and
it's
an
abundance,
and
so
as
soon
as
we're
close
to
pulling
the
trigger
on
a
particular
tracing,
app
or
even
a
symptoms,
app
someone
presents
us
another
technology.
B
That
then
raises
questions
of
consideration
on
why
that
may
be
better
than
the
other,
we're
very
close
to
making
a
more
formal
decision
on
the
tracing,
app
and
platform,
or
at
least
a
number
of
them
that
have
the
ability
to
cross
pollinate
information
as
Google
and,
as
you
know,
Apple
are
helping
advanced
also,
as
it
relates
to
the
symptom
check-ins.
We
have
another
app
we're
putting
out
very
soon,
more
broadly,
that
is
beyond
just
even
UI,
which
I'll
probably
talk
about
Monday.
But
this
is
a
space
that
I
know
you
write
about
at
its
space.
B
We
talk
about
into
space
that
would
be
I,
think
being
more
well,
will
more
formally
be
rolling
out
what
we
believe
are
the
best
decisions
for
the
vast
majority
of
Californians.
That
will
certify
very
very
shortly.
Forgive
me
again
for
the
long
witness
of
that,
but
I
want
to
just
again
not
ask
for
any
forgiveness
from
members
of
the
public.
Just
gratitude.
I
want
to
extend
for
all
of
you
all
40
million
Californians
for
Lima
the
privilege
once
again
of
saying
that
there
were
no
increases
in
hospitalization.
B
That's
because
of
you
and
your
credible
work,
you've
practiced
physical,
distancing,
you've
taken
seriously
the
stay
at
home
orders.
I
know
people
are
feeling
very
anxious.
I
said
this
yesterday,
I'll
say
it
again:
we're
walking
into
some
record
heat
this
weekend
and
people
have
to
want
to
be
able
to
get
outside
and
at
least
get
out,
perhaps
even
on
the
coast
and
other
parts
of
the
state
we've
been
putting
up
a
lot
of
new
information
working
with
Caltrans
working
with
State
Parks.
About
what's
closed.
What's
not
the
overwhelming
majority
are
closed.
B
I,
just
caution
you
if
you're
going
to
get
in
the
car,
make
a
long
drive
and
expect
to
find
parking
to
go
to
a
closed
Beach.
It
is
very
unlikely
and
I
want
to
encourage
people
to
do
their
best
through
this
difficult
weekend,
where
you're
tense
temptation
is
higher
to
want
to
experience
our
natural
beauty
I
just
again
consider
the
impact
of
those
decisions
not
only
yourself
but
on
the
rest
of
the
state
and
on
the
rest
of
society
and
continue
again
to
do
your
best
to
practice.
B
Physical
distance
II
wear
face
coverings
where
appropriate
and
continue
to
do
justice.
This
moment
I
hope
next
week.
I
don't
want
to
get
ahead
of
myself
but
I
hope.
Next
week
we
start
stinging.
Some
of
these
other
indicators
start
pointing
in
the
direction
of
green
and
we
can
make
those
announcements
and
I'm.
Confident.
B
If
you
do
your
part,
we
will
commit
to
doing
our
part
to
taking
your
good
and
good
work
and
bringing
into
a
health
frame
and
a
public
safety
frame,
and
that
will
help
me
help
move
this
cause
board
a
beginning
to
loosen
the
stay-at-home
orders
and
get
this
economy
back
up
you
back
to
work
into
whatever
semblance
of
normalcy.
The
new
normal
will
provide
over
the
course
of
the
next
few
months,
as
we
all
look
forward
to
the
moment
where
we
have
herd
immunity,
and/or,
a
vaccine
and
so
I
want
again.
