Want
to
do
briefly
update
everybody
on
a
few
things
that
have
happened
over
the
course
of
last
few
hours,
the
last
number
of
days,
but
none
more
important
to
me
than
to
express
appreciation
to
our
National
Guard
and
the
men
and
women
of
the
National
Guard
that
took
two
c-130
planes
and
I
flew
them
to
Illinois
one
into
New,
Jersey
New
York
area
to
provide
100
ventilators
for
the
needs
of
the
state
of
Illinois,
those
in
New
Jersey.
Another
hundred
in
the
state
of
New
York
those
same
men
and
women.
B
They're
different
group
within
the
National
Guard
ranks
now
are
deploying
additional
ventilators
in
Delaware
and
DC
in
Maryland
and
driving
as
we
speak,
driving
into
Nevada
50
ventilators
for
each
of
those
states.
I
just
want
to
thank
them
in
particular,
because
the
National
Guard
have
provided
not
only
the
kind
of
humanitarian
support.
B
It's
demonstrable
in
that
example,
but
also
continue
to
do
heroic
work
and
our
food
banks
all
throughout
the
state
of
California,
and
in
addition
to
that,
we've
got
a
hundred
of
them
that
just
went
out
on
the
lines
to
prepare
for
this
winter.
Rather,
this
summer's
fire
season
that
is
close
upon
us
they're
doing
vegetation
management,
forest
management
and
so
I
cannot
express
enough.
My
gratitude.
B
My
respect,
my
appreciation
to
our
National
Guard
I
also
wanted
to
update
all
of
you
on
a
significant
effort
that
we
have
advanced
on
PPE,
so
much
attention
not
just
on
n95
masks
on
coveralls
and
gowns
on
shields,
on
surgical
masks,
gloves
and
the
like.
We
have
been
doing
our
part
over
the
course
of
last
number
of
weeks
to
punch
above
our
weight.
We've
been
able
to
secure
over
41
and
a
half
million
and
I
five
masks
and
distribute
them
throughout
the
state
of
California.
B
While
we've
had
a
little
support
from
the
national
stockpile,
we
haven't
relied
on
that
a
little
over
a
million
n95
masks
have
come
from
the
strategic
national
stockpile.
Forty
one
and
a
half
million
have
been
distributed
throughout
the
state
and
it's
a
way
of
emphasizing
that
all
of
us
are
working
in
some
cases,
collaborative
in
other
cases
across
our
respective
jurisdictions
and
sometimes
against
each
other
in
the
open
market
to
compete
to
procure
through
a
supply
chain
that
is
global,
more
PPE.
In
some
cases,
we've
been
actually
competing
against
the
federal
government.
B
I'm
gonna
ask
the
director
of
the
office
of
mercy
service
to
walk
through
a
little
bit
more
of
the
details
and
how
we're
going
about
this.
What
our
supply
chains
look
like
the
consortium
of
nonprofits
that
are
part
of
this,
a
private
company
here
in
the
state
of
California
that
really
stepped
up
with
strong
relationships
in
China
to
help
us
with
those
direct
supply
chains.
It's
a
logistics
operation
that
is
quite
extraordinary
and
its
magnitude
in
terms
of
the
number
of
flights
that
have
to
come
into
the
United
States.
B
The
PPE
is
broader
than
that,
but
the
masks,
of
course,
being
so
topical,
roughly
150
million
and
95s
on
a
monthly
basis
and
fifty
million
surgical
masks
on
a
monthly
basis
that
we
believe
with
these
contracts.
Multiple
contracts
and
multiple
sources
we'll
be
able
to
bring
into
the
state
of
California
and
procure
and
begin
to
distribute
at
a
scale
that
we
haven't
been
able
to
to
date.
So
with
that,
I
want
to
ask
the
director
of
the
office
of
emergency
service
to
come
up.
B
He'll
fill
in
the
blanks
on
some
of
the
details
of
that
strategy.
I
just
want
to
note
a
deep
respect
and
gratitude
to
our
partners
as
well.
In
the
legislature,
we
submitted
a
495
million
dollar
formal
request
for
the
first
tranche
of
payments
on
the
over
1.4
billion
dollars
of
procurement.
For
these
efforts,
that
is
not
an
insignificant
amount
of
money,
but
we're
dealing
at
a
time
where
we
need
to
go
boldly
and
we
need
to
meet
this
moment
without
playing
small
ball
any
longer.
B
California
is
in
a
position
not
only
to
leverage
those
supply
chains,
leverage
our
investment,
but
do
so
in
a
way
that
protects
the
taxpayers
as
well,
and
so
with
that,
let
me
ask
the
director
to
come
up
fill
in
the
blanks
and,
of
course,
we'll
have
ample
opportunity
answer
specific
questions,
but
after
he
speaks
I'll
go
into
a
series
of
other
issues
that
I
know
are
topical
and
important
to
everybody
that
may
be
watching.
Thank
you.
C
Hey
thanks
governor
good
morning,
marquel.
Are
you
the
director
of
the
governor's
office
of
emergency
services?
Let
me
provide
some
contextual
lists
to
this
this
effort.
The
governor's
mentioned
the
challenges
that
we
faced
with
getting
the
PPE
and
and
the
competition
that
it
existed.
What
we
try
to
do
is
really
step
back
and
look
at
this
in
a
much
more
strategic
way
and,
and
we
really
leaned
on
the
way
we
actually
managed
major
events
that
happen
in
California
like
when
we
have
wildfires
or
earthquakes
when
we've
got
limited
kinds
of
resources.
C
We
lean
back
on
on
that
those
procedures
and
those
protocols
to
be
able
to
build
a
more
sustainable
pipeline
of
resources
coming
into
the
state,
and
so
really
this
is.
This
has
been
an
effort
of
building
a
multi
prong
approach
to
achieving
the
objective
of
getting
to
the
multi-million
dollar
multi
million
number
of
mass
that
the
governor
has
mentioned.
Let
me
kind
of
break
that
down
for
you
a
little
bit
the
different
prongs
of
different
approaches.
The
first
is
engagement
with
a
number
very,
very
powerful
and
very
very
helpful
non-governmental
and
community-based
organizations.
C
We've
really
engaged
with
with
organizations
like
Direct
Relief,
ameriCares,
the
philanthropy
California
and
the
California
Endowment
and
frontline
these
are.
These
are
NGOs
that
have
reached
back.
They
have
they
have
relationships
in
Asia,
they've
been
doing.
Work
in
different
spaces
may
not
necessary
to
be
exclusively
PPE
but,
for
example,
in
the
climate
adaptation
and
resiliency
space
or
in
the
public
health
and
space
we've
leveraged
all
of
those
partnerships
and
relationships
to
build
in
to
using
their
their
pipelines
to
leverage
those
to
help
us.
C
So
that
has
been
a
source
of
ongoing
PPE,
particularly
mass,
but
it's
also
shields
and
gowns
and
other
kinds
of
of
commodities,
both
in
real
time
and
in
our
effort
to
build
in
the
out
weeks
and
the
out
months,
additional
PPE.
The
second
prong
has
been
through
working
with
direct
contracts.
We've
established
a
number
of
contracts
with
large
vendors
that
have
been
able
to
provide
the
PPE
that
the
governor
mentioned
already
for
44
41
million
mask
that
we've
already
distributed.
C
C
We've
also
been
able
to
get
from
our
national
health
providers
like
McKesson
and
Cardinal,
some
of
the
kind
of
commodities
we
need,
and
yesterday
we
were
able
to
establish
a
agreement
with
a
company
california-based
company
called
BYD
America,
which,
which
really
has
a
direct
reach
back
into
China,
to
be
able
to
build
a
pipeline,
a
sustainable
amount
of
a
monthly
mass
that
will
be
coming
in
to
assist
us
here
in
California.
This
is
this
is
a
an
organization
that
has
a
manufacturing
capability.
That's
that's!
C
That
is
specifically
designed
to
meet
this
need,
and
this
is
a
great
partnership
because
it
is
a
california-based
company,
and
it's
also
one
that
we
have
been
working
with
again
in
the
area
in
the
climate
space.
The
third
prong
that
we're
approaching
and
have
been
working
with
is
closely
with
our
partners
at
FEMA
and,
and
this
has
been
in
kind
of
three
different
areas.
The
first
is
that
FEMA
has
worked
hard
to
establish
a
partnerships
with
the
six
of
the
nation's
largest
medical
distributors.
C
You
know,
including
McKesson
and
Cardinal
and
United
health
and
and
Owens
to
be
able
to
go
to
Asia
and
procure
huge
quantities
of
of
PPE,
and
these
these
flights
are
coming
in
to
the
United
States
now
regularly.
Some
of
them
are
coming
into
California
and
as
part
of
that
effort
and
setting
up
that
air
bridge
and
as
part
of
the
national
effort
to
prioritize
counties
with
high
probability,
and/or
high
hotspots
that
are
that
are
occurring
across
the
country
in
the
in
the
top
national
100
counties.
C
There
were
a
number
of
counties
that
have
been
identified
here
in
California
for
immediate
supply
of
PPE
and
I
can
tell
you.
They
include
Los
Angeles
County
in
Santa,
Clara,
San,
Diego,
Orange,
Riverside,
San,
Joaquin,
San,
Francisco,
Alameda,
Sacramento
and
San
Mateo,
and
it's
it's
no,
it's
it's
not
just
random
these.
This
is
closely
coordinated
with
where
we're
seeing
the
greatest
number
of
cases
that
we
have
to
manage,
and,
and
that
doesn't
mean
that
the
rest
of
our
counties
in
the
state
are
not
going
to
get
PPE.
C
That
means
that,
as
through
the
process
of
the
national
program
through
the
the
leveraging
of
these
big
pharmaceutical
corporations,
hospitals
that
normally
procure
through
those
those
particular
entities
will
be
able
to
get
PPE
that
will
be
available
and
they
will
use
their
normal
process
within
those
counties
as
as
prioritized
counties.
The
last
piece
that
we've
been
working
with
FEMA
on
is
on
leveraging
a
new
piece
of
technology.
C
This
is
this
is
a
technology
that
was
manufactured
by
Patel,
a
defense
contracting
company
in
the
United
States,
it's
a
it's
a
technology
that
is
designed
to
get
on
the
ground
and
actually
bring
in
use,
n95
mask
and
do
a
a
sterilization
and
cleaning
process
that
makes
them
basically
new
again
and
this.
This
is
new
technology,
that
is,
that
has
been
certified
by
the
FDA
and
CDC,
and
it
will
be
here
in
California
here
within
the
next
week.
This
capability
will
have
the
ability
to
clean
up
to
80,000
masks
per
day.
C
So
what
this
does
is
that
we
will
work
a
coordinated
effort
with
our
hospitals
and
first
responders
and
being
able
to
utilize
the
PPE
that
has
been
used
that
meets
the
criteria,
we'll
bring
it
to
this
Center
the
center.
Well,
then,
sterilize
these
these
masks
and
we'll
be
able
to
repurpose
them
again
back
in
the
field
again,
so
to
sort
of
close
out.
There
are
a
number
of
different
efforts
that
are
happening
simultaneously.
C
These
are
all
sustainable.
They
will
meet
our
needs
in
the
short,
medium
and
long
term,
and
it
is,
as
the
governor
said,
it's
leveraging
the
power
of
California's
buying
capability.
It's
leveraging
the
great
relationships
we
have
with
many
organizations
and
agencies
to
build
the
capacity
that
we
need
and,
as
the
week's
go
on,
we
can
we'll
provide
additional
updates
on
how
all
of
this
continues
to
progress.
This
is
not
a
silver
bullet
there.
There
are
always
challenges
in
anything
that
we
are
attempting
of
this
scale.
B
My
very
different
place
than
we
were
just
a
week
or
so
go
and
congratulate
the
director
and
his
remarkable
team
for
organizing
a
new
construct
and
a
new
approach.
As
I
said,
it
can't
come
sooner,
particularly
now
with
new
mandates
across
the
state,
as
it
relates
to
face
coverings
and
player
mandates,
not
just
consumer
mandates.
It
relates
to
those
that
may
be
purchasing
food
or
essential
supplies
and
their
need
to
also
have
appropriate
face
coverings.
B
The
big
concern
has
always
been
run
on
masks
that
would
impact
our
healthcare
delivery
system
and
first
responders
over
the
course
of
the
next
few
weeks.
We
believe
that
will
substantially
be
addressed,
but
again
a
one
should
be
very
cautious
in
this
space
we
have
been
sober,
I
think
about
the
last
few
months.
B
We
will
avail
ourselves
to
others
in
need,
and
that
includes
not
just
ventilators,
but
certainly
would
include
issues
related
to
PPE.
So
as
we
scale
up
as
these
supplies
arrive
as
they
become
there.
As
we
see
more
certainty,
we'll
be
in
a
much
better
position
to
help
support
the
efforts
of
others,
EEMA
and
those
doing
procurement
and
appropriately
resourcing
that
procurement
and
an
as-needed
basis
to
parts
of
this
country
that
are
most
in
need.
B
B
That
represents
a
four
point:
two
percent
increase
from
the
previous
day,
two
thousand
seven
hundred
and
fourteen
individuals
that
are
hospitalized
in
our
system.
That
represents
a
three
point:
nine
percent
increase
from
the
previous
day.
Sadly,
we
had
one
of
our
highest
death
rates
in
the
state
so
far
that
was
68
individuals
that
passed
away
over
the
last
24
hours.
We
now
have
four
hundred
and
forty-two
individuals
that
have
lost
their
lives.
Tragically
442
families
torn
asunder
since
this
virus
hit
the
state
of
California.
B
Our
hearts
go
out
to
all
of
them,
particularly
on
today,
Passover
and
so
I
want
to
just
extend
our
deep
sympathies
and
empathy
for
all
of
those
struggling
and
suffering
from
not
only
this
moment,
but
then
the
deep
impact
losing
a
loved
one
is
having
on
families
large
and
small,
all
throughout
the
state
of
California.
Now,
as
it
relates
to
disaggregate
of
data,
a
lot
of
attention
is
appropriately
being
placed,
as
it
always
must
be
placed
on
the
issue
of
disparities.
It's
the
cause
again.
B
I
said
this
yesterday
that
unites
many
of
the
folks
that
work
here
in
the
state
of
California.
They
come
public
service
because
of
a
deep
desire
to
right
wrongs
and
deal
with
systemic
issues,
nothing
more
frustrating
than
the
systemic
challenges,
the
disparities
that
manifest
in
relationship
to
public
health
and
those
issues
preceded
this
crisis,
and
they
continue
to
persist
even
within
this
crisis.
B
I
made
the
point
yesterday
as
it
relates
to
access
to
testing
I,
made
a
prospective
point
looking
into
the
future,
about
access
to
treatment
and
vaccines
and
how
we
must
always
have
a
lens
of
addressing
equity.
In
that
context
and
I
assure
you
we
are
having
very
deliberative
conversations
in
that
space,
but
here
are
the
new
numbers.
I
mentioned
sixteen
thousand
nine
hundred
and
fifty
seven
individuals
in
the
state
of
California
that
have
currently
tested
positive.
B
That's
sixteen
thousand
nine
hundred
fifty-seven
within
that
as
a
subset
that
we've
been
able
to
disaggregate
and
we're
only
at
37
point.
Two
percent
of
that
number
that
have
reported
in
and
I
can
assure
you.
We
have
ten
people,
no
less
than
ten
people
that
are
calling
coroner's
offices
calling
hospitals,
double-checking
data,
not
every
city,
not
every
County
is
providing
that
data
in
real-time,
but
we're
trying
to
work
with
those
that
have
make
sure
that
we
scrub
that
data
I
said
yesterday.
B
I
wanted
to
wait
till
all
that
data
was
presented,
but
understandably
people
are
eager
for
transparency
in
real-time.
So,
as
I
said
when
I
said
to
my
daughter,
a
month
before,
we
formalized
some
of
the
announcements
around
public
schools
that
I
needed
to
be
honest
with
all
of
you
as
I
am
with
my
own
children.
B
Let
me
tell
you
what
we
know
based
on
the
37
percent
of
the
data
that
we've
been
able
to
disaggregate
and
confirm
we
have
six
thousand
three
hundred
and
six
cases
that
we've
been
able
to
analyze
on
the
basis
of
race.
Looking
from
total
number
of
positive
cases
from
original
met,
the
Glens
and
the
total
number
of
deaths
they
track
so
far
and
again,
I
caution,
those
that
are
gonna,
write
about
this,
those
that
are
going
to
talk
about
it
report
about
this.
Please
I
caution.
B
It's
less
than
40
percent
of
all
of
that
data
back
in
and
every
we're
scrubbing
to
get
a
hundred
percent
as
quickly
as
we
can
as
soon
as
we
can
we'll
get
that
information
to
you.
But
the
current
data
bears
the
following
statistics
out
currently
30
percent
of
those
within
that
data
set
of
six
thousand
three
hundred
and
six
thirty
percent
are
identified
as
Hispanic
Latino
latina.
Third
percent
number
positives:
six
percent
within
the
black
community
and
sick
are
excused
to
me
14
percent
within
the
Asian
community.
B
It
tracks
modestly,
so
along
the
lines
of
total
population
deaths,
not
late
track.
So
thirty
percent
positive
Latino
community,
twenty
nine
percent
of
the
deaths
so
far
within
the
Latino
community,
based
upon
that
sample
size,
six
percent
blacks,
positive,
three
percent
of
the
deaths
currently
based
on
that
data
set
and,
as
I
said,
14
percent
Asians
tested
positive.
Sixteen
percent
of
the
deaths
within
the
Asian
community.
So
that's
those
are
the
big
broad,
strokes,
I've
seen
headlines,
you've
all
seen
headlines.
B
B
We
have
a
presumption
of
eligibility,
regardless
of
your
immigration
status
across
this
country,
substantively
in
the
state
of
California.
If
you
end
up
in
the
emergency
room,
you
go
to
a
hospital
you
could
be
tested
for
the
novel,
coronavirus
and
treatment
is
compensated
in
those
Hospital,
acute
care
mercy,
department
settings,
that's
not
the
case.
If
you
go
to
a
community
clinic,
our
community
clinics
do
straw,
Denari
work
and
many
other
doing
this
work
without
the
compensation
of
the
federal
government
or
the
state
government.
That's
now
just
changed.
B
We
are
providing
presumptive
eligibility
regardless
your
immigration
status.
At
our
community
clinics
and
we're
not
waiting
for
a
waiver
that
we
have
already
requested
to
the
federal
government,
we
did
request
that
waiver.
What
we
refer
to
as
I
think
1135
waiver.
We
are
not
waiting
for
a
response.
The
urgency
of
this
moment
dictates
that
we
need
to
create
some
clarity
within
the
community
healthcare
delivery
system,
and
so
that's
just
an
example
of
the
state
trying
to
do
more
to
advance
not
just
rhetorical
frame
around
this
data
and
identifying.
B
What
is
the
obvious
that
there
are
disparities,
but
to
do
something
about
it
and
we'll
continue
to
advance
more
efforts
and
continue
to
update
you
on
what
those
efforts
look
like
speaking
of
updates,
let
me
make
two
additional
announcements:
I
was
asked
yesterday
and
I
was
very
grateful
for
the
prompt
and
the
question
about
our
onward
CA
website.
This
onward
see
a
website
that
was
put
together
through
a
partnership,
a
collaboration
of
bit-wise
and
Salesforce
and
Linkedin.
They
currently
have,
as
a
data
set
a
hundred
and
ten
thousand
job
openings
on
that
site
onward.
B
Ca.Gov,
please!
If
you
are
looking
for
work
go
to
that
site
and
we
have
broken
out
by
geography
by
wage
packages,
benefits
packages,
well
all
those
job
listings
and
made
them
available
on
that
site.
We've
had
a
hundred
and
seventy
thousand
people
participate
and
engage
on
that
site
so
far,
and
we
hope
to
see
many
more
because
we
recognize
millions
and
millions
of
people
have
lost
their
jobs,
and
let
me
be
specific
on
that.
B
2.4
million
now
Californians
have
applied
for
unemployment
insurance,
just
since
March
12th,
and
so
we
encourage
people
to
go
to
that
site
and
we're
very
grateful
that
site
was
just
put
up
a
few
days
ago
and
we're
already
seeing
that
kind
of
activity.
Speaking
of
activity.
Let
me
update
you
on
another
announcement
we
made
a
week
or
so
ago,
and
that
was
related
to
the
issue
of
supplies.
We
talked
today
about
procurement
of
PPE,
we're
not
limiting
our
PP
efforts
just
to
the
announcement
we
made
today.
B
Quite
the
contrary,
we're
still
looking
for
people
that
can
meet
this
moment
on
hand.
Sanitizers
do
more
to
help
us
with
testing
media
testing.
Reagents.
All
kinds
of
manufacturing
needs
that
exist
and
persist
within
the
state
of
California,
so
we
created
this
kovin
19
supplies,
dot,
CA,
gov
website,
kovat
19
supplies
dot,
ca.gov
website
to
match
people.
You
may
recall
a
few
days
ago
we
talked
about
that
matching
effort
for
individuals
as
well
as
philanthropy
and
companies
themselves
to
provide
CAD
information
to
provide
FDA
approval
information.
B
I
don't
want
to
go
back
into
the
details,
except
to
say
this.
2300
individuals
and
companies
have
already
accessed
and
filled
out
applications
on
that
site
and
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody
that
did
that
and
it
filled
out
the
application.
Those
are
people
that
want
to
contribute.
Those
are
manufacturers,
philanthropy
and
individuals
that
want
to
provide
support
and
resources
at
this
critical
moment,
and
so
we're
very,
very
grateful
to
all
of
them.
As
I
said,
father
cause
well,
I
didn't
say
this,
but
father
cause
who
helped
raise
me.
B
Reminding
me
the
Bible
teaches
us
were
many
parts,
but
when
one
body
were
many
parts
but
one
body
and
when
one
part
suffers,
we
all
suffer
I'm,
not
exaggerating.
Father
cause
was
my
econ
teacher
at
Santa,
Clara
University,
and
he
began
every
single
lecture
by
reminding
us
of
our
web
of
mutuality.
That
was
more
dr.
B
king
phrase,
but
certainly
it
same
time
for
many
to
celebrate
and
reflect
on
date
like
this
Passover
and
so
I
just
want
to
extend
that
appreciation
to
those
of
faith
that
are
also
struggling,
because
it
is
not
a
time
to
congregate.
It
is
a
time
to
pray,
it's
a
time
to
reflect
it's
time
to
practice
our
faith,
but
not
in
these
congregate
settings
where
we
at
this
moment
in
time
need
to
continue
to
practice.
B
Physical,
distancing
and
I
cannot
I
will
end
as
I
always
end
by
reminding
everybody
while
the
curve
is
bent
been
bending
in
the
state
of
California.
It's
also
stretching,
and
at
any
moment,
if
we
pull
back,
you
can
see
that
curve
go
back
up
that
slope,
go
back
up
and
I
know
everybody's
tempted,
with
Easter
Sunday
the
weather
starting
to
improve.
We
are
already
trying
to
get
more
messages
out
there
to
everybody,
that's
likely
to
say
well,
maybe
honey.
B
This
is
the
weekend
we
can
take
a
nice
stroll
and
walk
in
a
park
or
go
up
on
a
trailhead
and
just
run
our
mind.
Folks,
if
you
do
that,
you
must
practice
safe
physical
distance
E.
If
you're
on
a
single
trailhead
going
up
and
folks
are
coming
down,
you
can't
do
that.
So,
please
go
check
out.
Our
parks
website
see
which
parks
and
beaches
are
open,
not
just
the
county
level,
the
city
level,
but
also
at
the
state
level
and
know
that
we
shut
down
the
parking
lots
for
a
reason.
B
Keep
those
icy
you
know
down,
keep
those
hospitalization
numbers
down
and
just
reflect
that
the
deaths
did
go
up
yesterday,
but
we
can
continue
to
bend
that
statistic
by
doing
more
individually
as
it
relates
to
practicing
appropriate
physical,
distancing
and
appropriate
utilization
of
face
coverings.
If
you
can't
practice
that
in
public
with
that
we're
happy
to
take
any
questions,
you
have.
D
Hi
Thank
You
governor
so
how's,
the
Saudis
in
seven
states
have
had
supplies
seized
by
FEMA
in
the
past
week,
according
to
multiple
media
reports.
Could
these
masks
that
California
plans
to
acquire
the
common
fears
if
you
have
a
plan
to
prevent
that
and
then
my
second
question
is:
should
your
administration's
decision
to
play
the
role
of
quote/unquote
central
procurer
here
of
masks
and
other
to
be
be
taken
as
an
implicit
criticism
of
the
federal
government's
lack
of
leadership
or
coordination
on
the
issue
of
procuring
and
distributing
supplies
on.
B
That
point
quite
the
contrary:
we've
been
working
extraordinarily
well
and
collaboratively
with
our
federal
partners
and
I.
This
is
an
opportunity
for
me
to
thank
our
federal
partners.
Thank
the
administration,
the
task
force,
FEMA,
incredible
work
of
Bob
fennan,
entire
FEMA
team
up
the
chain
of
command
the
president
United
States
himself.
We
thank
them
for
their
collaborative
spirit
and
we
continue
to
work
and
in
glove
with
the
administration.
So
the
answer
to
that
question
is
no.
It
should
not.
This
is
not
political.
This
is
not
any
way
shape
or
form
usurping
or
undermining.
B
This
is
all
in
the
spirit
of
all
of
us.
Stepping
into
this
moment
and
doing
what
we
can
and
again
California
is
just
uniquely
resourced,
where
we're
able
to
utilize
the
account
at
the
kind
of
scale
that
few
other
states
few
other
countries
can
even
resource,
and
so
we're
pleased
to
do
that
and
it's
our
responsibility
to
do
more
than
we
well,
then
we
even
imagined,
as
we
move
forward
in
this
process
as
it
relates
to
the
issue
of
commandeering
and
issue
of
that
I'll.
C
B
C
Great
thanks
governor
I
guess
I
would
just
accentuate
that
the
governor's
point
this
has
been
in
all-hands-on-deck
approach
and
our
partnership
with
FEMA
has
been
in
lockstep
right
from
the
beginning.
This
effort
of
getting
PPE
is
a
is
a
it's
a
it's
a
collateral
effort,
and
so
we
don't
think
there's
gonna
be
any
any
commandeering.
This
is
something
that
we
coordinate
every
step
of
the
way
FEMA's
having
flights
come
in
to
California
airports,
we're
going
to
be
having
flights
come
into
California
airports.
C
B
Forgive
me
for
reminding
yet
again
one
team,
one
fight
that
goes
back
to
January
when
we
engaged
the
federal
government
CDC
asper
through
HSS,
and
we
began
a
partnership,
sorts
building,
trust
with
the
federal
government
on
those
repatriation
flight.
Six
of
them
that
came
into
the
state
of
California.
We
furthered
those
relationships
at
trust
through
the
repatriation
of
that
grand
Princess
cruise
line
into
Northern
California
into
the
Bay
Area,
and
so
we
have
been
working
in
that
spirit
and
we're
gonna
stay
in
that
space.
As
long
as
we
can
next
question.
E
F
Governor
thanks,
as
always,
I
have
a
similar
question
to
the
prior
one.
You've
spoken
a
few
times,
including
today,
about
sort
of
competition
between
states.
How
does
the
purchase
of
this
size
and
scale
not
force
other
states
to
compete
with
California,
and
do
you
see
a
role
for
California
in
sort
of
taking
a
role
as
central
procureur
clearinghouse
for
other
states
as
well?
We.
B
Continue
to
look,
the
ventilators
is
a
proof
point.
Isn't
it
of
the
collaborative
spirit
that's
alive
across
this
country?
I
want
to
thank
a
Washington,
State
and
Oregon
for
their
generosity
in
that
space
as
well.
So
we're
all
in
this
together
again,
if
your
father
cause
was
right,
we're
many
parts
in
one
body
that
extends
even
beyond
the
state
of
California
as
it
relates
to
the
United
States
itself,
and
you
know
we
want
to
be
there
for
our
fellow
governors
and
we
want
to
collaborate.
B
I've
I've
said
this:
on
a
number
of
occasions
we
reached
out
to
a
number
of
Governors
and
we're
working.
The
office
emergency
service
is
working
Mark
and
his
team
with
his
counterparts
and
other
states.
We
have
procurement
officers
and
other
states
working
with
our
procurement
teams
in
the
state
of
California.
As
efforts
to
start
to
to
row
in
the
same
direction.
It's
not
perfect.
I
don't
want
to
I,
don't
have
you
Pollyannish
about
it
and
overstate
that
it's
a
well-oiled
machine
of
collaboration,
but
specifically
jeremy,
to
your
understandable
and
appropriate
question.
B
We
are
not
just
looking
at
supplies
in
a
scarce
marketplace
where
it's
a
zero-sum
game.
We
are
being
additive,
we're
looking
when
I
have
abundancy
in
this
respect,
increasing
supply
and
how
California
in
this
case
has
been
a
catalyst
to
increase
supply
that
will
not
only
avail
itself
to
the
state
of
California,
but
more
broadly
across
this
country
and
potentially
in
other
parts
of
the
globe,
and
so
that's
how
we
perceive
our
role
more
as
a
catalyst
not
trying
to
drive
up
more
competition,
but
advancing
a
framework
of
collaboration.
G
Thank
you,
nursing
homes
and
senior
residences
in
the
Bay
Area
and
around
the
state
are
experiencing
an
alarming
number
of
outbreaks
and
some
deaths.
Just
this
morning,
staff
at
a
Riverside,
nursing
home,
walked
out
protests.
Safety
concerns
if
the
state
going
to
form
a
task
force
or
issue
any
orders
to
address
these
issues
similar
to
what
San,
Bernardino
County
has
done.
Are
those
cases
being
traced
to
find
the
source
of
the
outbreaks,
and
when
will
the
state
release
some
comprehensive
numbers
on
outbreak?
Well,.
B
B
Some
the
first
guidelines
we
put
out
or
for
senior
facilities,
assisted
living
facilities,
skilled
nursing
facilities,
I
referenced
just
three
days
ago,
over
eight
thousand,
eight
hundred
and
thirty
two
sites
that
were
monitoring
and
we've
sent
out
teams
to
help
support
the
efforts
on
the
ground
at
those
sites,
specifically,
as
relates
to
San
Bernardino
County.
We
are
in
partnership
with
CDC
they've,
actually
sent
out
personnel
to
help
support
the
efforts
there.
I
made
this
point
two
days
ago
that
this
and
the
issue
of
homelessness
remain
my
top
concerns
in
terms
of
vulnerable
populations.
B
B
We
are
in
a
different
place
than
New
York,
so
it's
allowed
us
to
have
a
collaborative
process
to
really
think
about
how
we
can
decompress
our
entire
system
and
how
to
prioritize
that
decompression,
full
disclosure,
one
of
the
areas
of
discussion-
this
is
not
concrete,
but
it
is
one
of
the
areas
of
discussion
is
how
we
can
help
support
our
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
their
patients
at
this
time,
and
that
goes
specifically
to
your
questions.
So
we
recognize
the
imperative.
B
We
recognize
what
is
reflected
in
that
data
and
those
deaths
disproportionately
are
exampled
in
what's
happening
or
not
happening
in
our
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
I
can
assure
you
Mark,
galley
and
his
team.
This
is
their
top
priority
in
this
state
to
provide
as
much
in
terms
of
support
resources
and
alternative
facilities,
so
that
we
can
isolate
and
quarantine
individuals
and
help
support
the
staffing,
anxiety
and
staffing
needs.
H
Yeah
hi
governor,
if
you
can
hear
me,
I'm
wondering
about
the
death
count,
we
believe
it's
underreported
significantly
and
we're
aware
of
quite
a
few
cases
of
people
who
died
at
home
and
were
never
tested
or
people
who
did
go
to
hospital.
Then
one
home,
weren't,
tested
and
I'm
wondering
if
you
could
talk
about
what
steps
the
state
is
taking
to
count
those
people
or
to
go
back
and
test
people
posthumously,
or
what
the
protocol
is
now
to
try
to
get
a
more
accurate
count
of
the
true
impact
and
death
toll
of
this
disease.
B
I
Thank
you
for
this
question
is
incredibly
important,
that
we
understand
the
impact
of
code
19
on
our
communities,
and
that
includes
understanding
and
having
good
data
on
the
health
impact.
That's
also
relates
to
the
issue
that
was
raised
earlier
about
race,
ethnicity,
and
really
understanding
the
demographics
of
the
populations
that
are
affected.
We
look
at
every
single
case
individually
and
refer
and
investigate
it
to
understand
more
cases
like
the
ones
that
you're
describing
when
they
come
to
our
attention.
We
review
them
with
our
team.
I
B
And
I
just
note
for
everybody
I
know,
there's
different
data
that
comes
out
because
people
update
data
during
the
course
of
the
day.
We
have
always
been
very
specific
about
the
data
we
use,
so
the
442
individuals,
the
68
people
lost
their
lives,
was
based
on
a
time
a
point
in
time
count
that
we
do
on
a
daily
basis.
You
can
attract.
You
can
attach
my
announcements
based
upon
the
certification,
the
State
Department
of
Public
Health
counties
are
doing
theirs
a
little
bit
differently,
but
this
data
tracks
day
to
day
in
a
very
consistently
tono.
J
Thank
You
governor
for
following
up
on
the
disaggregation
of
the
data
and
I'm
outlet
outlining
a
plan
of
action.
I
am
a
two-part
question.
We've
spoken
to
a
lot
of
business
owners,
Billy
small
business
owners,
probably
the
smallest
of
the
small
businesses
in
California
and
that's
under
50
employees.
Very
little
money
in
the
bank,
well
under
25
million
dollars
in
revenue
and
a
lot
of
them
are
worried
that
they
might
not
be
eligible
for
the
federal
SBA
loans.
J
B
Let
me
answer
you
in
two
parts:
number
one
Speaker,
Nancy
Pelosi
is
deeply
concerned
about
the
exact
issue
you
just
brought
up
in
the
accessibility
of
these
loans,
particularly
on
the
grant
program
PPE
that
has
generated
so
much
attention
and
she
specifically
is
focusing
on
businesses
in
those
categories
that
you
just
described.
So
any
additional
support,
as
it
relates
to
additional
money,
also
must
come
with
additional
language
to
provide
points
of
access.
B
But
as
we
process
this,
these
are
exactly
the
kinds
of
businesses
that
we
have
in
mind
with
these
micro
loans,
people
that
are
falling
through
the
cracks,
and
we
will
consider
those
examples
and
many
others.
As
we
process
this,
let
me
just
make
one
final
point
on
this
subject
as
someone
that
used
to
manage
small
businesses
had
the
privilege
of
being
involved
in
the
creation
of
a
number
of
businesses
in
the
state
of
California.
B
I
am
well
aware
from
the
multitudes
of
people
that
are
contacting
me
about
the
incredible
difficulty
they're
having
getting
to
their
banks.
To
get
this
two
hundred,
forty
nine
million
dollars
has
been
appropriated
to
get
a
portion
of
that
into
the
state
and
into
their
bank
accounts,
so
they
can
rehire
people
and
they
can
continue
to
operate
essential
services.
This
must
be
addressed
in
real
time.
B
This
has
to
be
addressed
in
real
time
and
so
I
just
want
to
extend
a
deep
level
of
personal
appreciation,
not
just
intellectual
appreciation,
as
I'm
inspired
by
entrepreneurs
of
every
stripe
and
what
they
do
to
take
risks
every
day
and
to
create
opportunities
every
day
for
people
all
across
this
state.
How
we
have
to
have
their
back
at
this
moment
as
well.
E
Governor,
can
you
provide
more
details
on
the
indicators
you're
watching
beyond
just
generally
whether
we're
bending
the
curve
to
determine
when
you
could
possibly
be
able
to
call
off
the
state
home
order
and
then
along
those
lines,
I'm
curious
if
you
have
any
better
sense
of
an
end
date
than
when
you
were
asked
as
a
couple
weeks
ago.
Well,.
B
It
depends
on
forty
million
others
in
the
state
of
California
and
their
commitment
to
following
through
on
the
stay
at
home,
orders
their
commitment
to
have
appropriate
face
coverings
if
they
cannot
practice
physical
distancing
and
their
commitment
to
physical
distancing
over
the
course
of
the
next
number
of
weeks,
so
that
we
can
get
through
this
very
difficult
time
and
continue
to
bend
that
curve
buy
more
time.
So
we
can
prepare
and
then
begin
to
answer
that
question
on
the
basis
of
science.
B
But
at
the
same
time,
recognizing
we
have
to
be
vigilant,
as
we
do
that
and
know
this.
Just
so
I
can
be
clear
on
this.
We
have
a
team
of
people
working
on
this
24/7.
There's
no
question
on
this
that
we
haven't
asked
ourselves
on
dozens
and
dozens
of
occasions
everybody,
not
least
of
which
myself
as
governor
of
the
state
of
California,
wants
to
be
able
to
affirmative
ly.
K
I'm
wondering
if
you
can
clarify
what
you
meant
earlier
when
you
said
that
you
know
California's.
Recent
purchases
of
millions
of
masks
are
additive,
doing
at
the
factories
that
are
producing
these
masks.
What
previously
not
producing
masks,
and
that
this
is
a
new
type
of
equipment
for
them,
should
be
making
yeah.
B
So,
let's
be,
let
me
break
it
down.
We
talked
the
director
talked
about
this
nonprofit
consortium.
A
lot
of
that
is
getting
existing
supply
chain.
Some
of
that
is
accessing
new
supplies
that
are
being
made
available
around
the
world.
The
director
also
specifically
talked
about
Battelle,
and
that
is
a
system,
six
units
that
allows
us
to
reuse
and
95
masks
by
basically
creating
a
process
where
we
sterilize
these
masks.
So
we
can
utilize
them
upwards
of
20
times
80,000
masks
a
day.
B
We
already
are
working
with
the
hospital
system
to
create
the
protocols,
so
they're
not
throwing
all
these
masks
out
so
that
we
begin
the
process
of
reusing
them.
So
that's
certainly
additive
in
terms
of
stretching
existing
resources
and
in
addition
to
that,
these
supply
chains
we're
getting
from
other
parts
of
the
globe.
L
You
know,
I
just
heard
it
act
if
you
heard
some
President
Trump
or
the
White
House
with
regard
to
this
proposal,
and
have
you
heard
what
other
governors
are
they
worried
that
maybe
their
purchasing
power
could
be
decreased,
that
California
could
maybe
disrupt
the
market
for
other
states
and
and
decrease
the
plies
for
everyone
else.
Yeah.
B
We
have
heard
from
other
governors
and
has
been
quite
favorable
because
they
understand
we
are
helping
increase
supply.
We
are
not
taking
away
a
limited
number
of
supplies,
so
that's
number
one
number
two:
we
have
been
working
very
collaboratively
with
the
federal
government
in
terms
of
these
efforts,
and
so
those
continue-
and
that
has
been
the
frame
of
our
engagement
again
since
the
beginning
of
this
crisis.
B
Enough
enough
it
was
reference
to
just
going
in
their
direction
we
were
going
in,
and
that
was
one
offs
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
just
the
overwhelming
number
of
people
coming
in
saying.
I
got
five
hundred
thousand
masks.
I
got
a
million
masks,
I've
got
250
thousand
masks
and
we're
running
and
chasing
all
these
things,
and
that's
when
we
were
running
into
walls
or
wanting
into
each
other
in
terms
of
competition
and
so
California.
B
We
decided
to
step
back
from
all
of
that
and
say
look
as
a
nation
state,
with
the
capacity
to
write
a
check
for
hundreds
of
millions,
no
billions
of
dollars
we're
in
a
position
to
do
something,
bold
and
big.
That
could
be
a
catalyst
to
increase
supply
and
ultimately
increase
the
capacity
to
procure
with
more
certainty,
and
that,
ultimately,
was
the
direction
we
chose
to
go
and
that's
the
direction
we
have
gone
and
that's
why
that
specific
request
the
legislature
to
move
those
dollars,
or
at
least
announcement
to
the
legislature
that
we
are
moving.
M
Hi
governor,
thank
you.
Understandably,
there's
been
a
lot
of
focus
in
recent
weeks
on
testing
PPE
hospitals,
but
I
wanted
to
ask
about
public
health
departments.
Some
california
county
health
departments
have
said
they
stopped
doing
core
work
like
contact
tracing
weeks
ago
due
to
testing
and
staffing
shortages.
Well,
in
other
states,
they're
still
doing
massive
contact
testing
of
every
case
of
copán
19.
B
N
Thank
You
governor
and
thank
you
for
the
question.
Absolutely
we
are
looking
closely
at
this
idea
of
testing
tracking
and
Tracy
has
an
important
vehicle
to
looking
forward
to,
as
people
say,
reopening
parts
of
our
communities.
We
know
that
many
of
our
local
public
health
department's
did
that
early
on
because
of
the
enormous
numbers
of
individuals
who
were
coming
in
from
commercial
flights
who
maybe
needed
to
be
tested
tracked
and
traced
that
we
didn't
do
that
for
as
long
as
some
states
where
the
caseloads
are
lower
than
they
have
been
in
California.
N
B
California
continues
to
request
more
volunteers.
Cal
volunteers
is
looking
for
more
and
more
people
to
help
support
our
efforts
at
our
food
banks
continue
to
do
what
we
can
to
reach
out
to
our
neighbors
and
friends.
I
want
again
thank
the
Surgeon
General
for
all
her
wonderful
work
and
what
was
announced
yesterday
and
all
the
new
guidance
that
now
is
available
on
that
Kovan
19
ca.gov
website
for
those
that
have
teenagers
they're
concerned
about
teen
crisis
lines
for
those
that
are
struggling
with
anxiety,
depression,
hotlines
and
resources
available
to
all
of
you.
B
Those
that
are
just
trying
to
cope
through
this
moment
need
a
little
bit
of
direction
and
how
best
to
cope
or
be
reminded
on
how
best
to
cope.
We've
got
that
all
available
for
you
on
those
sites
and
again
just
want
to
thank
everybody
for
staying
safe,
staying
at
home
and
practicing
physical
distancing,
don't
be
socially
isolated
from
one
another
connect
with
one
another,
but
do
so
by
practicing
physical
distancing.
Thank
you.
Everybody
for.
