C
Well,
good
afternoon,
everybody
just
want
to
jump
right
in
and
update
you
on
where
we
are
in
terms
of
total
number
of
cases
in
this
latest
reporting
period.
I'll
remind
you,
the
latest
reporting
period
reflects
sunday's
numbers
and
those
numbers
come
in
at
twenty
nine
thousand,
six
hundred
and
thirty
three
cases
of
covet
nineteen.
This
is
substantially
lower
than
the
seven
day
average
of
thirty
seven
thousand
eight
hundred
and
forty
five,
and
I
cautioned
as
we
work
through
the
holiday
in
particular.
These
case
numbers
appear
to
be
low.
C
C
You
can
see
here
on
this
chart
12.2
percent
positivity
rate
two
weeks
ago
on
the
21st
of
december
12.4
percent.
In
this
latest
reporting
period
ending
yesterday,
hospitalizations
have
increased
at
18.
That
is
a
more
modest
growth
rate
than
we've
seen
in
the
past.
We
have
foreshadowed
this.
We
have
socialized
based
upon
our
own
planning
in
our
own
modeling,
an
expectation
of
a
lull
before
a
surge
on
top
of
the
surge
coming
from
case
rates
and
ultimately
hospitalizations
and
icu's
associated
with
the
holiday.
So
this
is
not
where
you
hold
your
breath.
C
C
What
we
believe
in
the
next
number
of
days
and
weeks
from
the
holiday
season,
let's
take
a
look
at
icu
capacity,
statewide
familiar
slide.
That's
zero
percent
in
southern
california,
zero
percent
in
san
joaquin
valley,
again
representing
not
the
fact
that
there
are
no
icu
beds
just
represents
the
fact
we're
now
in
our
surge
phase
in
our
surge
strategy
for
icu,
I
identified
additional
icu
capacity
7.9
around
8
percent.
C
In
the
bay
area
could
see
the
greater
sacramento
region,
a
marine
12.1
percent
been
a
little
above
15
percent,
a
little
below
15
percent,
now
12.1
in
northern
california.
C
The
one
region
in
the
state
that
has
not
been
imposed
upon
as
relates
to
the
stay-at-home
order
remains
above
two
times
above
that
15
threshold
that
we've
identified
at
30
percent
the
deaths.
Again,
these
numbers
can
be
misleading
from
the
weekend
and
then
you
stack
on
top
of
that
weekend:
collection
and
data
with
holiday
and
so
take
a
look
more.
I
think
closely
at
that
seven
day,
average
336
lives
lost
families
torn
apart
because
of
this
pandemic.
C
Just
put
in
perspective,
the
last
14
days
close
to
4
000
californians,
have
lost
their
lives.
This
is
a
deadly
disease.
This
is
a
deadly
pandemic.
It
remains
more
deadly
today
at
any
point
in
the
history
of
this
pandemic.
So
I
want
to
put
that
in
perspective
that
97
is
deadly
and
devastating,
as
that
may
be,
that
number
is
substantially
lower
than
that
seven
day
average.
Just
a
reminder
of
the
seriousness
of
purpose.
C
We
all
must
have
at
this
moment
to
mitigate
the
spread
and
the
deadliness
of
this
disease,
as
relates
to
doing
just
that
we
have
been
deploying
technical
assistance
teams
all
up
and
down
the
state
of
california.
As
you
heard
a
few
weeks
back,
we
focused
our
energies
on
los
angeles,
in
particular
we're
extending
those
technical
assistance
teams
down
there
riverside
san
bernardino
and
san
joaquin.
We've
also
deployed
teams.
These
teams,
just
as
a
reminder,
are
made
up
of
our
emsa
folks
and
ashped
and
cal
oes.
C
That's
office,
emergency
service,
where
I'm
here
today
and,
of
course,
cd
ph
california,
department
of
public
health.
So
these
are
the
coordination
teams
focusing
on
decompression,
meaning
reducing
stress
on
certain
physical
locations.
Space
equipment
supplies
the
whole
gambit,
including
oxygen
and
more
on
oxygen.
In
a
moment,
you
can
see
as
well
latest
tally,
described.
1300,
state
and
federal
staff
been
deployed
continue
to
work,
including
over
this
weekend
over
the
holidays,
trying
to
get
more
federal
supports
and
we
are
seeing
some
support
in
that
space.
C
We
certainly
look
forward
to
more
department
of
defense,
hhs
and
others.
You
can
just
see
us
examples
of
some
of
the
folks
we're
using,
including
now
144
calgar
medical
experts
that
have
been
deployed
at
key
locations
across
the
state
now
back
to
the
issue
of
oxygen
in
our
oxygen
strategy.
It's
important
to
highlight
this.
C
It's
gotten
some
attention
and
I
just
wanted
to
give
it
a
little
bit
more
focused
attention
here
today
and
socialize,
those
of
you
that
may
not
be
familiar
with
the
issue
of
oxygen
supply
in
the
state
because
of
the
strain
because
of
the
stress
down,
in
los
angeles
in
particular,
and
of
course,
san
joaquin
valley
been
placed
upon
the
hospital
system.
We
have
organized
and
I'll
talk
more
about
it,
a
statewide
oxygen
strategy.
We
actually
have
a
task
force
on
oxygen
that
we
put
together.
C
We
stood
up
a
week
or
so
ago,
but
you
can
see
the
framework
of
our
strategy
is
predicated
on
five
fundamental
efforts
and
most
important
being
just
mitigation
awareness
at
this
moment,
particularly
for
those
hospitals
and
facilities
that
are
not
necessarily
focused
on
it.
C
We
are
making
sure
that
we're
reaching
out
to
every
facility
up
and
down
the
state
of
california
to
caution
around
what's
occurred
in
some
parts
of
the
state
and
what
is
a
preview
of
things
that
may
come
in
other
parts
of
the
state,
so
we're
sharing
best
practices,
not
just
the
information
around
this
issue
being
of
concern,
but
best
practices
for
hospitals
have
already
overcome
these
issues
and
providing
resources.
Those
resources
include
technical
assistance
teams.
I
referenced
that
state
oxygen
team
that
we
put
together.
C
They're
part
of
our
morning
cadence
of
morning
calls
in
terms
of
our
logistics
strategies,
the
us
army
corps
of
engineers,
the
folks
that
are
helping
out
with
these
alternative
care
facilities
and
technical
assistance,
world-class
group
of
folks
and
they're,
looking
at
the
capabilities
within
existing
facilities
throughout
the
state
and
looking
at
making
enhancements
and
they've
done.
Just
that.
Let's
talk
about
that.
The
oxygen
support
and
the
support
that
the
army
corps
has
already
provided,
has
been
exampled
in
seven
facilities.
C
Five
down
in
la
two
in
san
bernadino,
a
little
bit
of
a
typo
on
this
chart.
We
also
going
to
be
sending
that
team
down
to
fairview
to
help
support
those
efforts.
Emsa
has
been
deployed
with
today,
we'll
be
looking
to
deploy
them
for
refilling
capacity
and
these
oxygen
for
these
oxygen
tanks,
and
then
these
what
we
call
dmsu
medical
support
units
we
have
42
of
them
across
the
state.
They
have
oxygen,
that's
components
of
those
dmsu's
and
we're
starting
to
repurpose
those,
and
so
we've
got
a
logistics
team
logistics
task
force.
C
That's
helping
with
that.
They're
also
leasing
mobile
oxygen
systems,
so
we
have
the
ability
to
do
more
rapid
employee
deployment,
one
of
the
other
strategies-
and
this
is
important
to
dr
galley
and
others-
has
been
working
hard
on
this
over
the
last
number
of
days-
is
home.
Oxygen
support
to
again
decompress
reduce
the
stress
on
the
system,
get
people
to
support
the
connection
at
home
to
get
the
kind
of
oxygen
that
would
allow
them
to
recover
and
allow
us
more
availability
and
more
capacity
within
our
existing
facilities
in
terms
of
utilization.
C
In
terms
of
the
stress
on
that
capacity,
and
so
we've
been
working
with
vendors
and
we've
been
working
across
the
spectrum
to
create
a
framework
of
support
to
help
with
this
strategy
of
decompression
and,
ultimately,
the
strategy
of
mitigating
the
utilization
of
these
systems
that
are
leading
to
a
series
of
issues
which
get
more
complicated
as
it
relates
to
system
pressure,
as
it
relates
to
the
conversion
of
the
liquid
into
gas
and
icy
conditions
that
occur
again
too
much
information.
C
Except
to
say
this
is
part
of
the
larger
strategy
in
terms
of
what
the
army
corps
is
doing,
but
also
what
we're
trying
to
do
by
getting
people
to
move
into
home
environments
and
reduce
the
utilization
of
those
oxygen
systems.
The
larger
systems,
as
relates
to
the
state
procurement
efforts,
we've
got,
160
units
have
been
deployed,
and
rather
106..
We've
got
160
that
are
in
our
california
medical
stations
that
will
look
to
redeploy.
We
talked
about
these
emsa
stations,
other
stations,
we're
just
looking
at
the
panoply
of
oxygen
support.
That's
in
essence.
C
What
this
slide
says:
penetrative
supports
across
the
spectrum
and
looking
how
we
can
utilize
more
flexibility
and
broader
distribution
of
these
oxygen
units
all
but
down
the
state,
but
particularly
in
these
areas,
san
joaquin
valley
and
los
angeles,
the
large
southern
california
region
that
are
in
particular
need
and
are
under
particular
stress.
We
also
are
looking
to
order
400
of
these
oxygen
concentrator
units,
and
that
has
been
done,
we're
looking
forward
to
adding
to
the
200
or
rather
423,
units
that
are
already
in
our
cash.
We
hope
to
get
to
8.23.
C
That's
the
stated
new
goal,
at
least
for
the
state
again,
maybe
too
much
information,
but
I
thought
it
was
always
to
share
with
you
what's
shared
with
me:
try
to
do
it
in
real
time
just
to
update
you
on
some
of
these
efforts.
C
Talk
talk
about
updates,
we've
got
90
people
now,
and
these
alternative
care
sites
you're
familiar
those
of
you
tuned
in
very
familiar
with
these
sites,
down
imperial
valley
college,
sleep
chain,
arena
up
here
in
sacramento,
porterville
and
fairview,
and
then
the
palomar
alternative
care
site
that
now
has
in
the
san
diego
region
just
taken
in
10
patients,
but
90
total
that
are
part
of
this
alternative
care
system.
C
These
sites
is
about
well,
it's
usually
about
48
to
72
hours
in
some
cases,
you'll
get
into
that
fourth
day,
but
that's
rare.
So
our
ability
to
turn
these
on
quickly
maintain
we're
still
in
that
position
where
we
can
turn
these
on
quickly.
Subject
to
again
the
one
thing
and
that's
staffing,
staffing,
staffing
against
the
most
important
issue.
Facilities
are
one
thing:
staffing
is
the
thing
that
is
the
energy
and
focus
with
that.
C
Our
energy
and
focus
is
also
gone
to
this
notion
of
the
light
being
at
the
end
of
the
tunnel
and
despite
being
in
the
tunnel,
we
recognize
there's
hope
on
the
horizon
and
with
that
I
want
to
just
update
you
briefly
on
the
vaccines,
a
lot
of
attention,
a
lot
of
focus,
a
lot
of
stress,
a
lot
of
punditry
in
this
vaccine
space.
Let
me
just
update
you
briefly
on
what
we
are
doing.
You're
gonna,
you're
gonna
get
updates
consistently
on
this
I'll
remind
you.
C
A
lot
of
this
information
is
made
available
on
the
state
site,
the
covet19.ca.gov
website
covet19.ca.gov
website.
So
you
can
go,
learn
about
all
the
details
and
nuances
of
our
phase
plan
strategy,
the
tears
and
sub-tiers
I'll
update
you
in
a
moment,
but
again
go
to
that
site.
When
you
want
more
information.
Just
a
brief
update,
though
this
week
I
submit
to
the
legislature
a
new
budget
for
the
next
fiscal
year.
C
We
are
working
with
legislative
leaders
who
have
been
magnificent
about
an
early
action
strategy
and
in
particular
we
are
looking
to
get
some
early
action
clearly
to
support
our
efforts
on
vaccination
distribution.
Again,
we're
health
care
workers
and
those
seniors
living
in
congregate
facilities
as
we
expand
to
new
bands.
New
phases
going
from
a
group
about
three
million
people
to
tens
of
millions
of
people.
I.T
is
going
to
become
more
important.
This
end
to
end
calvex
management
system.
C
Getting
that
fully
operationalized,
which
is
very,
very
it's
moving
along,
very,
very
well
we're
very
close
to
getting
it
to
where
we
need
it
to
be
all
our
logistics
and
commodities
efforts
and
the
dry
ice.
That
continues
to
be
an
issue
with
not
just
pfizer
but
also
storage
and
cold
needs,
as
it
relates
to
dry
ice
for
transportation
and
logistics
purposes,
even
for
moderna
public
education
campaign.
Just
you
know,
absence
of
a
national
public
education
campaign.
Clearly
the
state
needs
to
do
more
we've.
Given
you,
some
updates
seen
some
psas
in
culturally
competent
way.
C
Again,
we've
got
to
meet
people
where
they
are
and
that's
underway,
but
not
at
the
scale
that
we
would
like.
In
terms
of
the
social
media
and
the
peer-to-peer
work
working
partnership
with
community-based
organizations,
our
organization,
we
call
listos
building
off
the
work
we
did
with
our
census,
but
300
million
dollars
is
proposed
in
that
budget.
I'll
talk
more
about
that
in
detail
on
friday,
but
I'm
just
giving
you
a
preview
of
what's
in
that
budget,
specifically
for
vaccinations,
we
are
working
aggressively
to
accelerate
our
pace.
C
We've
said
this
from
day
one:
it's
like
a
flywheel
first
10
15
days
we're
going
to
slowly
start
building
pace,
going
to
start
building
it
and
you're
going
to
start
seeing
the
rap
more
rapid
distribution.
This
vaccine.
I
can
assure
you
that
now
that
said,
it's
gone
too
slowly.
I
know
for
many
of
us
all
of
us.
I
think
we
want
to
see
100
of
what's
received
immediately
administered
in
people's
arms,
and
so
that's
a
challenge
to
challenge
across
this
country.
C
It's
a
challenge
for
that
matter
around
the
rest
of
the
world,
but
that's
not
an
excuse,
and
so
we're
already
working
this
last
number
of
days
to
increase
the
number
of
distribution
sites
and,
more
importantly,
to
accelerate
the
efforts
of
who
can
distribute
the
vaccines,
dental
administration
so
dennis
administering
the
vaccine.
The
pharmacy
text,
national
guard,
more
of
our
national
guard,
deployed
to
begin
the
distribution
administration,
our
pharmacy
program,
that's
a
partnership
with
cvs
and
walgreens
and
that's
underway.
We
started
that
last
week.
C
We're
encouraged
by
that
they're
going
to
focus
on
sniffs,
skilled
nursing
facilities
and
assisted
living
and
undercut
other
congregate
facilities,
and
then
our
partnerships,
working
cma
and
others
and
clinics
doctor
partnerships
up
and
down
the
spectrum.
So
more
aggressive
efforts
in
this
space
and
I'll
talk
to
you
more
later
this
week
about
substantial
increases
in
these
efforts,
meaning
additional
supports
that
we're
putting
in
terms
of
the
administration,
the
flexibility
and
the
urgency
of
our
distribution
strategies.
C
But
here
I'll
just
quickly
update
you
on
the
total
number
of
doses
and
then
the
next
phase
of
planning,
so
we've
received
the
state
actually
has
in
its
possession
about
1.29
million
doses.
We've
got
611
000
that
are
being
shipped.
They
haven't
arrived
yet
you
see
the
second
doses
arriving
this
week,
so
those
first
doses
you'll
get
those
second
doses
for
those
that
are
queued
up
now.
Here's
how
many
we've
put
into
people's
arms
454,
000.,
1.29
and
454
000
doses
administered.
So
we
got
work
to
do
on
this.
C
C
Governors
are
talking
to
other
governors
chiefs
of
staff
to
chiefs
of
staff,
looking
at
logistics,
sharing
best
practices
what's
working,
what's
not
working
across
the
spectrum
and
one
recognizes
you've
got
to
be
iterative.
You've
got
to
be
flexible
and
you've
got
to
have
a
sense
of
deep
urgency,
and
I
I
hear
that
from
folks
calling
me
directly
people
that
are
expressing
themselves
very
forthrightly
and
understandably
around
their
anxiety
of
when
do
I
get
these
doses.
C
So
let's
talk
about
that,
as
I
said
a
moment
ago,
we
are
in
phase
one,
which
is
healthcare
workers
and
long-term
care
residents,
again
congregate
facilities,
seniors,
that's
the
current
phase
about
three
million
people
plus
or
minus
phase.
One
b
is
the
phase
that
was
discussed
last
week
by
our
guidelines
working
group
and
it
has
multiple
tiers
within
each
phase.
There
are
multiple
tiers,
just
as
there
is
with
phase
1a
phase.
1B
here
are
the
tiers,
the
top
tier
75
and
over
workers
in
education,
so
teachers,
but
what's
the
prioritization
for
teachers?
C
So
that's
the
work
that's
being
done
and
by
the
way
that
will
all
be
updated
very
publicly
on
wednesday
I'll
get
to
that
in
a
moment,
but
here's
the
tiers
one
b
and
that
tier
one
you
can
see
who
we're
prioritizing
tier
one
b,
or
rather
tier
two
and
one
b
that
moves
from
65
to
65
and
over
not
just
75
and
over,
and
you
can
see
the
other
sectors
in
terms
of
individuals
and
industries,
logistics,
industrial,
residential,
commercial
facilities,
services
that
will
be
prioritized
now.
C
1C
will
be
updated
and
discussed
not
signed
off
on
this
wednesday,
but
will
be
discussed.
That's
the
next
phase
and
that's
50
and
over
that's
phase
I
would
likely
be
in
and
then
people
with
underlying
medical
conditions
down
to
the
age
of
16..
So
that's
the
next
phase
phase
one
b
is
about
eight
million
people
phase,
one
a
about
three
phase,
one
b,
eight
million
by
the
way
that's
plus
or
minus-
and
that
will
be
we'll
land
on
that
this
wednesday.
C
So
that
number
will
get
updated
this
wednesday,
I'm
just
giving
you
proximate
numbers
and
then
1c
is
this
much
larger
cohort
that
includes.
I
imagine
many
of
you
that
may
be
tuning
in,
but
speaking
of
tuning,
in
encourage
you
to
tune
in
on
the
six
this
wednesday
three
to
six
o'clock.
This
is
on
the
covet
19.ca.gov
website.
If
you
choose
that,
will
that
will
send
you
the
to
the
right
place
to
tune
in,
and
this
is
the
community
vaccine
advisory
committee.
C
I
remind
you
60
people,
we
put
three
committees
together,
we
have
a
safety
committee
that
we
put
together
in
middle
part
of
october.
We
partnered
with
washington,
state,
oregon
and
nevada
they've
signed
off
on
pfizer
they've
signed
off
on
moderna,
not
only
for
efficacy,
but
safety.
That
was
the
eyes
that
we
wanted
to
put
on
this.
In
addition
to
the
eyes,
the
federal
government,
we
have
this
drafting
guidelines,
work
group
they've
been
meeting
consistently
and
that
is
a
smaller
cohort
of
people
than
this
community
advisory
committee
of
60.
C
So
it's
worth
taking
a
look,
a
lot
of
people
asking
me
about
this
and
there's
no
greater
place
to
get
a
sense
of
really
what's
going
on
this
very
transparent
process,
it's
very
accountable
process,
but
again
recognize
the
deep
anxiety
and
need
for
urgency
on
all
of
this,
and
we
are
not
going
to
require
a
cadence
once
a
week
of
understanding,
we
are
going
to
socialize
a
deeper
understanding
of
what
we
are
doing
on
a
more
consistent
basis.
I
assure
you,
speaking
of
updating
you
on
our
conditions
on
a
more
consistent
basis,
a
new
strain.
C
This
was
brought
up
last
week.
We
brought
up
fact
that
we
have
now
detected.
We
do
very
comprehensive
genomics
testing
in
the
state
of
california.
I
see
some
of
the
national
news
on
this
saying
america
doesn't
do
this.
I
don't,
I
think,
it's
a
little
misleading
because,
as
part
of
this
country,
california's
been
doing
a
lot
of
genomics
testing
anywhere
from
five
to
ten
thousand
tests
a
week,
just
here
just
again
proximate
where
I
am
ucsf.
Partnership
with
cz
biohub
been
doing
a
lot
of
these
genomic
tests.
C
Looking
for
different
strains,
pretty
consistently
in
southern
california,
they've
been
doing
the
same.
By
definition,
four
individuals
in
san
diego
were
identified
with
this
uk
lazy
look
ways
away,
describing
it
uk
strain
at
least
the
strain
that
was
identified
first
in
the
united
kingdom.
One
is
now
hospitalized.
We
also
have
two
additional
individuals
that
we
identified
in
san
bernardino.
We
have
all
kinds
of
new
genomics
tests.
In
fact,
I
was
hoping
I
think,
they're
coming
later
this
afternoon,
the
results
of
those
tests.
C
I
was
hoping
to
have
an
update
for
you.
We
imagine,
in
fact,
once
should
just
anticipate
there'll,
be
others
identified
and
we'll
know
more
about
this
in
real
time
and
hopefully
late
this
afternoon
tomorrow,
we'll
be
able
to
update
you
more
on
some
of
the
latest
genomics
testing.
That's
been
done
to
understand
more
comprehensively
what
the
strain
is
looks
like
and
what
it's
doing
I'll
get
to
that
in
a
second,
but
just
briefly,
remind
you,
we're
contact
tracing
our
disease.
C
Investigation
is
very
aggressive
in
this
space,
in
particular,
and
that's
underway,
and
that's
allowed
us
to
understand
a
little
bit
more
about
those
four
individuals
did
they
travel?
Did
they
not
travel
they're
in
contact
with
someone
who
was
traveling,
et
cetera,
and
so
as
that
information
comes
available,
some
of
it
already
has
been,
but
as
more
information
becomes
available,
we'll
share
it
with
you.
Just
remind
you,
though,
this
new
strain,
this
new
variant
is
more
contagious.
C
Cdc,
though,
believes,
will
protect
against
this
new
strain.
Just
underscores
that's
why
I
put
the
slide
up.
Underscores
the
importance
of
our
preventative
measures,
particularly
now,
with
a
strain
that's
more
more
easily
transmittable,
meaning
transferable,
meaning
you're
more
likely
to
get
this
strain.
That's
why
it's
more
important
to
consider
all
the
common
sense
things
that
you
know
well,
and
I
don't
need
to
burden
you
with
in
terms
of
just
distancing
and
social
distancing,
physical
distancing
and
hygiene
and
all
those
things
in
terms
of
mixing
and
masking,
which
are
important.
Speaking
of
important
as
well.
C
At
least
eight
million
people
have
found
that
the
california
notify
app
is
important.
It's
easy
to
get
easy
to
download
go
to
google
play.
You
can
just
download
it
easily
on
apple.
It's
a
notification.
It's
opt-in,
eight
million
people,
have
opt-in
added
to
the
phone.
It's
just
notification
in
terms
of
using
technology
is
an
additional
tool
to
notify
you
if
you've
been
proximate
to
someone
who's
contracted
covet
19..
I
just
wanted
to
give
a
brief
update.
C
We've
talked
a
lot
about
our
notification
system
and
courage
that
you
know
roughly
20
percent
of
the
state
has
already
adopted
it,
or
at
least
utilized
it
and
downloaded
it
and
encourage
you
to
consider
the
same
again
go
to
google
play
and
go
to
the
apple
store
and
learn
more
about
california,
notify,
and
just
briefly,
I
wanted
to
because
it's
incredibly
important
look
to
update
you
on
supports
for
our
small
businesses.
C
Half
a
billion
dollars
in
grants
were
put
up
as
a
bridge,
I'm
going
to
be
talking
a
lot
more
about
doing
a
lot
more
for
our
small
businesses
this
friday,
when
we
released
the
budget.
This
was
done
in
the
interim
partnership
with
the
legislature
sense
of
urgency
that
we
placed
on
this.
In
addition
to
what
we
put
in
the
existing
fiscal
year
for
small
businesses
and
tax
credits
and
waiving
those
fees
associated
with
the
franchise
tax
board
for
all
startups.
C
Here's
the
half
a
billion
dollars
in
small
business
grants
that
also
go
to
cultural
institutions
that
also
are
available
to
non-profits.
This
just
opened
up
25
000,
it's
a
top
grant.
You
can
receive.
These
are
just
grants.
These
are
not
loans,
and
we
just
want
to
make
sure
people
are
aware
of
it
and
and
in
need,
make
themselves
and
just
avail
themselves
to
learning
more
about
whether
or
not
they
qualify
and
so
they're
open
right.
Now,
these
grant
this
grant
process.
It
was
going
to
close
the
door
on
the
8th.
C
We
just
extended
it
to
the
13th
and
that's
why
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
this.
First
application
round
was
extended
through
the
13th,
so
folks
know
that
we're
doing
daily,
webinars
we're
doing
it
in
multiple
languages
we're
trying
to
be
as
inclusive
as
we
possibly
can,
but
here's
the
site-
you
may
have
seen
it
on
the
scroll
below
but
I'll
just
put
it
up
again.
California,
ca,
reliefgrant.com
ca
relief,
grant.com
go
on
their
smartphone
on
your
laptop,
whatever
pic
pick
it
up,
it's
worth,
taking
a
look.
C
It's
really
worth
taking
a
look
at
this
site,
sending
them
that
information
and
making
them
aware
of
the
opportunity
to
to
get
the
support
and
again
remind
you
this
friday.
We'll
talk
a
lot
more
about
additional
supports.
We
may
even
preview
it
before
friday,
because
it's
so
urgent,
so
critical
that
we're
there
for
our
small
businesses
in
terms
of
waiving
fees
and
associated
burdens,
particularly
as
we
work
through
this
final
push.
This
final
phase
of
this
pandemic
light
is
at
the
end
of
the
tunnel.
C
There's
real
hope
and
promise
with
these
vaccines
is
stubborn,
as
the
initial
application
has
been
again.
This
flywheel
continue
to
see
more
and
more
progress,
more
more
rapid
distribution,
broader
community
distribution,
but
in
the
interim
we
are
entering
in
to
now
this.
What
we
anticipate,
what
we
anticipate
the
surge
on
top
of
a
surge,
it's
going
to
put
a
lot
of
pressure
on
hospitals
and
icus
coming
out
of
the
holidays,
and
so
we're
getting
into
that
phase
right
now
later
in
this
week,
we'll
really
have
a
better
sense,
as
that
lag
that
reference.
C
The
top
of
this
presentation
begins
to
give
way
to
more
understanding
of.
What's
happened
in
the
last
week.
C
As
we
see
more
test
results
come
back,
as
we
see
case
numbers
that
are
representative
of
those
new
test
results,
as
we
update
our
positivity
rates
and
updater
are
effective
by
the
way
they
are
effective,
dropped
in
0.95,
which
is
encouraging,
but
again
may
not
be
truly
representative
of
the
sample.
That
is
truly
more
indicative
of
what
occurred
last
week,
based
upon
again
sort
of
the
holiday
lag
and
reporting.
So
that's
why
this
week
it's
a
long
way.
C
Forgive
me
it's
a
long
way
of
saying
this
week
is
critical
in
terms
of
a
bigger
understanding
of
where
we
are
and
if
we're
going
to
hit
that
surge
on
top
of
a
surge
on
top
of
yet
another
surge.
The
way
at
least
I
describe
it,
but
more
broadly,
it's
been
described
as
surge
on
top
of
a
surge.
So
we'll
update
you
in
real
time
on
that,
and
I
encourage
folks
again
to
learn
more
about
all
these
things
by
going
to
covet19.ca.gov
website
coven19.ca.
D
Thank
you
governor,
so
I
just
want
to
confirm
for
all
the
reporters
that
the
budget
is
in
fact
on
friday
and
then
for
my
actual
question.
D
Homelessness
communities
across
california
are
being
hit
increasingly
we're
seeing
things
we
hadn't
seen
just
a
few
months
ago
with
outbreaks,
pretty
significant
ones
and
outdoor
encampments
in
homeless,
shelters,
as
well
as
in
some
of
the
non-congregate
facilities
that
the
state
has
helped
provide,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
ask
you:
is
there
any
other
help
on
the
horizon
from
the
state
in
your
budget
or
otherwise,
for
communities
really
struggling
to
contain
and
address
the
cova
pandemic
as
it
relates
to
homelessness
and-
and
I
understand,
project
room
key
has
been
reauthorized
every
month,
but
I
think
I
just
want
to
anticipate
a
little
bit
of
your
question
and
say
that
a
lot
of
communities
that
we've
heard
from
over
the
course
of
the
pandemic
has
said
those
are
life
saving
for
the
few
who
are
lucky
enough
to
get
inside.
D
C
Good
enough
never
is
over
10
000
human
beings
are
currently
getting
the
benefit,
not
a
small
number
over
10
000.
I
think
it's
close
to
10,
700,
plus
or
minus
I'll,
get
you
that
new
information
are
getting
the
benefits
of
project.
Okay.
Over
23
000
people
have
been
supported,
23
000
people
through
project
room
key,
which
started
less
than
a
year
ago.
We're
really
proud
of
that,
and
I
appreciate
you
recognizing
that
it
was
just
extended
by
the
federal
government
working
with
the
biden
transition.
C
We've
been
working
aggressively
to
get
more
clarity
beyond
just
the
30-day
extensions
which
I
think
the
counties
fundamentally
and
understandably
need
to
give
them
more
confidence
of
the
supports
in
terms
of
those
federal
dollars
being
drawn
down.
In
addition
to
that,
you
may
know
we're
able
to
do
something
remarkable
at
least
humbly.
I
submit
remarkable,
considering
94
projects,
51
jurisdictions
in
the
state,
846
million
dollars
invested
under
time
and
below
budget
to
get
these
permanent
units
up
and
operational,
and
that's
happening
in
real
time.
C
So
you
ask
the
question:
specifically:
the
project
room
key
now
has
evolved
to
homekey,
which
is
a
permanent
framework
where
we
have
already
secured
over
6
000
units
unprecedented
in
california
history.
I
don't
know
of
another
state
in
american
history
that,
just
in
a
few
months,
literally
a
few
months,
just
since
july,
was
able
to
draw
down
to
close
escrow,
we
closed
escrow
on
these
projects
and
so
over
the
next
number
of
weeks
and
months,
those
start
to
be
utilized
at
scale.
So
those
will
also
provide
additional
supports.
C
We
put
in
hundreds
of
millions
of
dollars
under
an
emergency
appropriation,
at
least
close
to
well
62
million,
specifically
recently,
to
help
support
some
of
the
county
functions
and
efforts
to
provide
some
support
services
on
top
of
the
100
plus
million
we
had
provided
in
the
july
budget.
We
continue
to
look
forward
to
the
support
being
manifest
that
the
state
provided
in
the
existing
fiscal
budget
remember
we're.
Halfway
through
the
fiscal
year,
the
state
put
an
unprecedented
amount
of
money.
C
What
we
refer
to
as
the
hap
program
to
provide
cities
and
counties
supports
and
cocs
supports
for
homeless,
and
we
have
a
second
round
of
money,
that's
being
distributed
literally
in
the
next
few
weeks.
Specific
to
your
question
in
terms
of
additional
supports
in
that
space,
that
was
over
600
million
dollars.
So
you're
talking
about
unprecedented,
even
in
a
covent
environment,
supports
to
cities
and
counties
and
as
a
former
county
mayor,
I
never
looked
to
the
governor
to
do
all
of
that
work.
C
It
was
not
the
governor's
job,
it's
the
county's
job
and
the
city's
job.
To
then,
do
all
that
groundwork
to
help
support
these
efforts,
we're
just
providing
more
support
than
has
ever
been
provided
in
our
history,
and
I
recognize
good
enough.
Never
is,
and
so
the
answer,
your
question
long-winded
response
to
the
totality
of
your
question.
C
At
least
is
yes,
we
will
be
doing
even
more
in
the
budget
that
we
will
be
submitting
to
the
legislature
in
partnership
with
the
legislature
and
we've
been
working
for
weeks
and
weeks
to
see
where
we
can
land
to
recognize
the
urgency,
as
it
relates
to
potential
early
action,
but
also
the
urgency
to
be
prepared,
as
we
move
away
from
room
key
to
make
sure
that
we
are
addressing
the
needs
of
those
that
are
transitioning.
We
are
working
with
la
county
specific
to
issues
we're
on
skid
row.
We
have
great
new
partner.
C
The
mayor,
the
new
mayor
down
in
san
diego,
has
been
extraordinary
and
now
is
opening
his
hands
in
terms
of
support,
and
vice
versa,
of
our
efforts
to
collaborate
without
any
ambiguity,
and
that's
also
very
impactful,
but
those
counties
that
have
moved
away
from
convention
centers
to
solve
the
problem
have
done
much
better
than
those
that
relied
on
convention.
Larger
congregate
facilities
as
it
relates
to
transmission
disease
and
that's
one
of
the
best
practices
we're
also
socializing
and
sharing
and
with
county
health
directors,
as
well
as
county
leaders
up
and
down
the
state.
E
Yes,
governor,
I
want
to
ask
a
couple
of
questions
about
vaccinations
today.
I
want
to
find
out
if
you
could
tell
us.
First
of
all
how
many
of
the
doses
that
have
been
administered
have
been
pfizer
versus
moderna.
Then
I
also
want
to
find
out
with
the
moderna
vaccine.
Have
we
seen
any
of
the
kind
of
delivery
hiccups
that
we
saw
in
the
first
week
with
pfizer
and
then
finally,
I
wanted
to
see
just
what
you
thought
were
the
biggest
roadblocks
or
obstacles
out
there
to
ramping
up
the
testing
or
the
the
vaccinations
faster.
C
I
appreciate
so
we'll
go
back
to
the
slide.
454
thousand
have
been
administered
I'll,
get
you
an
update
and
we'll
you'll
probably
receive
it
before.
I'm
done
responding
to
your
question
in
your
inbox
in
real
time
as
it
relates
to
the
moderna
versus
the
pfizer.
Let
me
just
answer
the
second
part
of
your
question,
as
it
relates
to
some
of
the
early
hiccups
with
pfizer.
We
actually
have
experienced
more
challenges
to
be
candid
with
you
with
the
moderna
distribution.
C
In
this
respect,
remember
moderna
we're
not
dealing
with
directly
pfizer
we
deal
directly
with,
but
moderna
has
an
intermediary
mckesson
and
mckesson's
one
of
the
great
companies,
at
least
in
terms
of
their
logistics
manufacture,
distribution
in
the
country,
but
but
that
has
been
a
little
bit
more
of
a
struggle
getting
responses
back
in
the
first
number
of
days
again,
I'm
not
here
to
take
cheap
shots.
I'm
not
here
to
point
fingers,
quite
the
contrary
of
respect
and
admiration
for
everything
operation.
C
Warp
speed
has
done
in
terms
of
just
getting
these
doses
to
market
and
into
people's
arms.
Now
you're
asked
the
right
question:
what
more
do
we
need
to
do
and
how
do
we
fast-track
those
efforts,
and
that's
why
I
put
this
slide
up
as
it
relates
to
our
efforts
to
work
with
dentists,
to
work
with
pharmacy
techs,
where
you've
got
a
whole,
I
mean
we
have
every
every
day
here
at
the
state
operations
center,
we
have
a
logistics
team.
C
We
finally
got
that
pharmacy
program
up
with
cvs
and
walgreens
they're,
taking
a
portion
of
the
vaccines
directly.
They
go
to
them.
First,
they
don't
go
through
our
spoken
wheels
as
it
relates
to
our
distribution
strategies,
we're
working
more
collaboratively
with
clinics
and
doctors
and,
as
I
said
in
the
next
few
days,
in
much
more
prescriptive
detail,
I'll
update
you
on
some
new
strategies
to
deal
with
some
of
the
roadblocks,
1
million
297
000
doses
received
454
000
administered,
not
good
enough.
C
We
recognize
that,
and
this
state
size
of
any
is
the
size
of
21
states
combined.
It's
a
logistics
opportunity
and
that
opportunity
is
manifest
with
a
sense
of
urgency
that
is
required
of
this
moment
and
the
urgency
that
people
demand
in
terms
of
execution
to
the
administration
of
these
doses
and
so
you'll,
be
hearing.
As
I
said,
a
lot
more
detail
on
that
in
the
next
couple
days.
F
Yeah
governor,
if
I
can
just
follow
up
on
that
last
question,
how
big
a
factor
with
this
looks
like
approximately
25
of
the
available
vaccines
have
not
been
put
in
the
arm.
Yet
how
much
of
that
is
due
to
healthcare
workers
declining
that
they
say
they
don't
want
to
receive
the
vaccination,
and
yet
the
hospitals
have
ordered
the
delivery
of
these
vaccines.
They're
not
be
given.
C
Thank
you
yeah
that
that's
that's.
We
have
anecdotal
evidence
on
that.
I
I
heard
one
of
my
colleagues.
One
of
the
governors
gave
a
specific
percentage
and-
and
I
I
asked
the
same,
I
said,
do
we
have
actual
data
and
information?
We've
got
a
survey
out
we're
looking
forward
to
the
results
of
that
which
will
be
the
closest
approximation
to
actual
data
that
I
could
provide
you
when
that
comes
back.
I
was
hoping
it
would
come
back
this
weekend.
C
This
holidays
created
some
little
stress
in
terms
of
that
response,
but
as
soon
as
I
get
that
I
will
surely
share
it
with
you
and
share
it
with
others,
so
people
have
a
better
sense
of
that,
but
look
regardless
of
those
that
are
unwilling
to
take
the
shot
they're
right
and
we
have
plenty
of
people
that
want
to
take
that
shot
and
the
key
is
to
make
sure
while
we
are
enforcing
the
rules
of
the
road
we're
not
necessarily
enforcing
against
just
common
sense
and
the
energy
of
someone
who
says.
C
Look,
I
don't
want
to
waste
this
dose.
Why
don't
I
get
it
to
someone
that
may
be
out
of,
but
you
know
just
we're
using
a
little
more
flexible
language
in
terms
of
our
conversations
with
a
lot
of
our
point-of-care
folks,
so
we
can
address
some
of
these
lingering
concerns
around
opening
up
a
vial
and
then
having
doses
and
some
that
can
expire.
C
Remember
these
vaccines
can
last
a
long
time,
but
once
you
pull
out
of
that
vial
and
you
have
a
particular
number
of
doses-
that's
when
you've
got
to
move
quickly
and
we
have
some
instances
where
folks
have
not
utilized
those
final
doses
and
we're
trying
to
address
that
concern
without
putting
people
in
a
position
where
they
feel
like
they've
they've
done
the
wrong
thing,
we're
just
looking
for
gross
negligence,
people
that
are
skipping
the
line
that
know
they
shouldn't
be
skipping.
C
The
line,
people
taking
care
of
people
means
and
influence,
not
the
rest
of
us.
That's
where
we
want
to
enforce
aggressively
we're
not
going
to
force
against
people
trying
to
do
the
right
thing
and
common
sense.
So
that's
all
part
and
parcel
of
the
conversations
we're
having
in
the
iteration
and
the
flexibility
that
we
are
also
trying
to
magnify
and
advance.
G
Governor
piggy
backing
on
that,
when
talking
to
counties
surrounding
our
area
and
sacramento,
you
know
they
typically
do
appointments.
Take
a
survey
of
sites
to
see
how
many
vaccines
and
doses
the
facility
needs.
So
there
have
been
a
few
instances
or
there
are
extra
doses.
You
mentioned
that
there's
a
kind
of
a
loose
plan.
So
is
there
not
a
specific
wait
list
or
or
backup
plan
distribution
list
to
ensure
that
that
dose
one
doesn't
get
wasted
and
two
goes
to
someone
that
is
most
in
need.
C
Yeah,
we
are
moving
expeditiously
to
make
sure
that
happens
have
been
for
days
when
some
of
those
first
instances
came
up
to
make
sure
people
are
able
to
transfer
those
doses
immediately.
Let
me
ask
dr
galley
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
the
specifics
of
that,
since
we're
very
aware
of
this
bottleneck,
concern
and
we've
been
having
some
very,
very
robust
and
very
positive
conversations
with
our
providers
all
up
and
down
the
state.
H
Doctor,
yes,
governor
two
parts
to
the
answer
to
that
question.
H
You
gave
the
first
part
we
are
actively
working
to
clarify,
make
sure
all
of
the
vaccinators
understand
what
to
do
with
those
remaining
doses
when
they
open
up
a
set
of
vials
and
they
might
have
a
dozen
or
two
dozen
doses
left
to
give
out
to
make
sure
that
it's
clear
who
they
can
give
them
to
and
really
to
encourage
the
continued
sort
of
drum
beat
of
get
people
vaccinated,
but
while
making
sure
that
they're
still
doing
as
much
as
they
can
to
target
the
most
vulnerable.
H
The
most
exposed
those
who've
been
prioritized.
But
already
the
cdph
guidelines
put
out
and
give
flexibility
to
the
vaccinators
to
choose
a
population
that
fall
within
those
priority
groups.
They
may
not
be
exactly
the
tier
one,
the
one
first
second
tiers
of
1a
they
might
be
in
the
third
tier,
but
ensuring
that
we
have
lined
up
people
who,
of
course,
are
in
that
tier
1a
and
can
benefit
from
getting
the
vaccine
and,
if
necessary,
and
only,
if
necessary,
be
able
to
use
those
doses
for
others
as
well.
I
Hey
governor,
thank
you
for
the
question.
I
want
to
echo
some
of
my
colleagues
questions
about
the
pace
of
vaccine
distribution.
You
noted
that
california
has
received
about
three
times
as
many
doses
as
it's
been
distributed.
So
I
would
just
ask
simply:
where
are
those
doses
that
california
has
and
is
not
yet
put
into
people's
arms.
C
H
We
realized
that
there
are
doses
and
freezers
and
ready
to
be
used,
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
align
those
doses
and
those
providers
who
have
the
doses
to
make
sure
that
it
gets
out
into
the
community
many
counties.
Many
providers
have
already
worked
through
some
of
the
initial
hospital-based
healthcare
providers.
H
So
now
it's
making
sure
we
have
the
systems
in
place
to
get
to
all
the
other
frontline
healthcare
providers,
making
sure
that
the
doses
get
to
the
vulnerable
in
the
congregate
care
facilities
and
the
work
of
the
moment
is
making
sure
we
bring
together
those
vaccinators
with
the
population
who,
based
on
our
priority
groups,
are
sort
of
next
in
line
to
be
offered
the
vaccine
so
working
hard
on
that
in
the
next
couple
days.
But
certainly
today,
those
vaccinate
vaccines,
those
vials
of
vaccine,
are
spread
throughout
the
state.
C
Dashboard
by
county
in
terms
of
the
total
amount
distributed
by
county
total
amount
administered
injected,
so
that
provides
framework
and
then
obviously,
within
that
a
subset,
we've
got
a
very
comprehensive
registry.
We've
got
protocols
that
pre-date
this
pandemic,
as
it
relates
to
immunization
protocols
that
are
well
established,
just
a
reminder:
19
million
or
so
flu
shots
are
administered
every
single
year.
In
addition,
all
the
other
vaccines
that
parents
in
particular,
are
well
aware
of
that
all
go
through
a
very
comprehensive
system.
That's
well
established.
So
within
that
system
lies
the
response
to
your
question
now.
C
That
said,
I
think
there's
a
little
mythology,
and
I
want
to
just
clarify
this-
that
somehow
in
dr
galley,
perhaps
in
fact
I'm
just
going
to
put
this
over
to
you,
so
you
can
offer
it
with
a
little
more
clinical
precision,
but
the
vaccines
don't
arrive
magically
in
some
state
facility.
I
think
there's
sort
of
this
notion
that
well
the
states
receive
them,
we
don't
receive
large
crates
of
vaccines
and
then
dr
galley
starts
to
send
them
out.
C
The
entire
distribution
is
done
very,
very
differently
again
pfizer
directly
and
moderna
through
mckesson
as
an
intermediary
directly
to
providers,
but
dr
galley.
Perhaps
you
can
explain
that
a
little
bit
more,
so
people
have
a
better
understanding,
because
I
think
there
is
some
sort
of
misunderstanding.
Understandably.
So
when
they
hear
well,
we've
sent
it
to
the
states.
H
H
So
it's
really
built
upon
not
a
state
infrastructure,
but
that
public
or
sorry
that
healthcare
delivery
infrastructure
throughout
the
state-
and
this
is
certainly
part
of
the
ongoing
strategy-
is
to
continue
to
work
with
those
providers
to
make
sure
that
not
just
those
who
come
to
the
hospital
work
in
the
hospital
get
vaccinated,
but
that
those
sites
become
sort
of
larger
vaccination
sites
for
their
broader
communities.
H
Some
of
those
workplaces
that
we're
focused
on
so
really
working
on
that
strategy
now
through
a
number
of
different
entities
of
the
state,
but
really
at
the
local
levels,
and
not
just
the
local
health
departments.
But
these
broad
set
of
healthcare
delivery
partners
across
the
states,
including
some
of
those
sites
that
could
be
employer
based
or
at
work
sites
as
well.
So
all
of
that
is
part
of
the
ongoing
strategy,
but
absolutely
the
vaccine
does
not
come
from
the
federal
government
or
one
of
these
manufacturers
to
the
state
to
redistribute.
C
A
myriad
of
sites
all
up
and
down
the
state.
Now
it's
just
about
putting
the
pressure
distribution,
putting
making
sure
people
are
held
accountable,
making
sure
the
system's
transparent,
where
their
bottlenecks
that
we
have
flexibility
is
we
identified,
maybe
in
the
rules,
but
it
needs
to
be
socialized
and
shared
more
broadly
and
obviously
the
rules
of
the
road
that
are
established
through
the
dry
drafting
guidelines,
work
group.
C
We
want
to
stay
broadly
within
that,
but
obviously
we
recognize
now
in
terms
of
this
all
hands
approach
that
needs
to
be
advanced
again,
we'll
talk
more
about
that
next,
48
or
so
hours
in
more
detail
and
specificity.
But
I
can
assure
you
there
is
a
much
more
aggressive
posture
now
in
terms
of
local
accountability
in
terms
of
the
administration.
J
Hey
governor,
you
know
going
further
on
this
point
about
the
distribution
of
vaccines.
There's
a
shock
tracker
managed
by
bloomberg
news
that
shows
california
near
the.
J
Of
all
states
in
the
bottom,
ten
in
terms
of
the
number
of
doses
received
that
have
been
administered
so
are
there
some
particular
challenges
in
california
that
you
think
have
led
to
you
know
us
being
slower
than
other
places
in
getting
vaccines
administered
are
people
refusing
vaccines
at
higher
rates?
Are
there
not
enough
staff
to
administer
the
vaccines?
Is
there
some
logistical
snafu,
like
you
mentioned,
with
the
moderna
intermediary?
Any
insight
on
that
you
could
provide
would
be.
C
H
Yeah
a
couple
answers
to
that
question:
alexi
first
off
we
know-
and
maybe
this
is
the
case
in
other
states,
but
in
california
we
expected
that
over
the
last
few
days
that
there
is
some
delay
in
getting
the
data
put
into
the
larger
state
database
that
tracks
all
of
the
vaccinations.
So
we
expect
that
there's
going
to
be
an
uptick
that
might
be
a
national
phenomenon
too.
H
I
think
in
my
mind,
and
what
I
have
been
in
conversations
with
our
team
on
and
our
local
partners
on,
is
that
you
know,
through
some
of
our
work,
to
make
sure
that
we're
liberalizing
who
might
be
able
to
get
the
vaccine
when
that
we
don't
have
in
california
a
shortage
of
individuals
who
are
interested
in
being
vaccinated,
and
certainly
no
shortage
of
people
who
are
high
risk,
frequently
exposed
who
want
to
be
vaccinated
as
well.
H
So
bringing
those
things
together
making
sure
that
our
prioritization
allows
us
to
stay
focused
on
the
equity
and
fairness
principles
that
have
driven
our
entire
response,
but
also
that
facilitate
those
to
get
vaccinated.
So
I
don't
see
this
as
a
problem
of
a
logistics,
one
or
or
one
of
issues
with
in
any
significant
way
with
the
manufacturers
or
the
distributors.
Certainly,
california
would
benefit.
I
think,
as
every
state
would
would
with
more
supply
of
vaccines,
so
that
we
could
do
this
even
faster.
H
But
I
think
bringing
these
sort
of
prioritizations
together
making
sure
that
we're
focused
on
empowering
our
vaccinators
to
do
more
on
this
front
is
going
to
be
the
key
that
helps
us
increase,
no
matter
where
we
are,
and
I
can't
speak
to
bloomberg,
track
or
any
other
tracker
in
specific,
because
I
haven't
seen
it.
K
K
So
I'm
wondering
what
do
you
think
in
terms
of
the
regulations
that
you
have
in
place
now
are
working
and
what
might
not
be
working
and
what
additional
tools
in
your
toolbox
might
you
have
going
forward?
While
you
were
talking,
the
prime
minister
of
the
uk,
boris
johnson,
announced
the
national
lockdown.
I
mean.
What
more
could
we
be
seeing
to
try
to
bring
this
under
control,
as,
as
you
suggested,
things
are
probably
about
to
get
worse.
C
Well,
I
appreciate
it.
Let
me
just
because
take
advantage
of
dr
galley
and
I'll
build
on
what
dr
gallery's
response
is.
But
doctor
you're
down
in
la
he's,
been
focused
explicitly
on
what's
happening
in
southern
california
and
has
a
much
more
nuanced
sense
in
real
time,
with
the
technical
assistance
that
we
provided
in
that
analysis
and,
of
course,
unique
relationship
to
the
county
as
well.
Even
former
formerly
served
there.
H
Yeah,
I
think
this
is
an
important
question
and
I'd
say
there's
a
three-part
answer
to
it.
First
and
foremost,
we
need
to
be
and
continue
to
be
focused
on
what
has
already
occurred,
which
is
thousands
of
californians
thousands
of
people
in
southern
california
who
are
infected,
who've,
been
exposed
and
are
infected,
whether
that
happened
before
the
winter
or
december
holidays
or
during
those.
H
We
are
seeing
the
issues
with
that
transmission
squarely
in
our
hospitals
and
the
state
working
with
local
partners
working
with
the
hospital
delivery
system
working
with
first
responders
to
make
sure
that
every
patient
who
needs
hospital
level
care
goes
to
a
facility.
That's
able
to
meet
their
needs
that
we're
doing
all
that
we
can
to
equip
those
hospitals
with
the
the
supplies,
the
staff.
H
We
talked
about
oxygen,
we're
talking
about
additional
nursing,
traveling
nurses
arriving
to
the
state
today
and
over
the
course
of
the
week
new
department
of
defense
teams
all
meant
to
stabilize
and
strengthen
the
hospital
delivery
system.
That
is
going
to
continue
to
do
what
it
does,
which
is
take
care
of
people
who
need
that
care,
and
they
are
doing
the
job
that
they
can
with
the
resources
they
have,
and
we
continue
to
build
that
up.
The
second
piece
is,
of
course,
all
of
the
issues
around
the
regional
stay-at-home
order
prior
issues
with
our
masking
order.
H
H
We
believe
that
the
efforts
collectively
not
just
ours
at
the
state
level,
but
at
the
local
level,
a
lot
of
individual
decisions
were
made
to
make
it
less
concerning
that
it
would
have
otherwise
been,
but
we
are
anticipating
higher
cases
in
the
coming
week
coming
out
of
this
new
set
of
sort
of
conditions
in
the
last
two
weeks,
and
so
what
is
it?
That's
going
to
help
us
get
that
under
control?
I
think
it's
going
to
require
us
to
do
what
we've
been
talking
about.
All
the
time.
H
Make
a
hard
choice
to
reduce
our
mixing
and
stay
at
home.
The
bottom
line
is
because
covet
is
so
prevalent
in
our
communities,
especially
in
mine
in
southern
california
and
los
angeles.
It
is
just
more
likely
that
you're
going
to
be
exposed
to
somebody
who
has
coveted
the
same
activities
that
you
did
a
month
ago
today
are
just
so
much
more
risky
than
they
were
from
a
cove
transmission
perspective,
and
you
may
simply
think
well,
no
big
deal,
I'm
young,
I
won't
get
that
sick,
but
then
you
carry
it
to
somebody
else
in
your
community.
H
That
is
much
more
vulnerable.
Maybe
it's
somebody!
You
live
with
a
family
member.
Maybe
it's
somebody
at
the
grocery
store
that
you
interact
with
even
for
just
a
few
minutes
in
line,
but
those
sorts
of
things
become
higher
risk
and
for
us
to
get
this
under
control,
we
need
to
continue
to
beat
home
that
that
the
the
drum
of
that
message
and
make
that
choice.
H
We
do
believe
that
the
regional
stay-at-home
order,
as
well
as
our
efforts
together
to
message
and
make
different
choices,
did
make
an
important
difference
over
the
last
few
weeks
to
reduce
that
sort
of
curve
that
very
steep
uptick
was
flattened
just
a
little
bit,
and
I
believe
that
we
did
buy
ourselves
a
little
bit
of
room
if
you
will
to
see
and
be
able
to
deal
with
what
we
have
in
front
of
us
with
this
sort
of
holiday
surge
that
the
governor
mentioned.
What
more
can
we
do?
H
Obviously,
whatever
we
do,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
it
has
the
impact
that
people
in
the
state
can
be
compliant
with
that
in
order
to
have
the
impact
that
I
think
we
all
care
deeply
to
see
and
that
coveted
fatigue
that
coveted
resentment
that
we've
talked
about
is
certainly
at
play
here,
and
we
need
to
continue
to
work
together
to
make
sure
we
support
one
another
to
make
tough
decisions
and
stay
at
home
and
reduce
our
mixing.
And
then
the
third
part
of
the
answer
is
really
about
the
vaccines.
They
can't
come
soon
enough.
H
The
governor
has
said
it.
We're
sort
of
in
the
deep
dark
part
of
the
tunnel
there
is
light
ahead.
It
will
help
us,
but
it's
not
going
to
help
us
right
this
moment,
even
if
100
of
the
doses
that
california
has
received
were
in
arms
already,
it
would
not
be
soon
enough.
So
we
need
to
look
forward
to
the
vaccine
and
the
solution
that
it's
going
to
bring
us
as
part
of
our
midterm
and
longer
term
response.
But
right
now
it's
about
reducing
our
individual
and
our
community
risk
of
transmission.
H
C
And
I
appreciate
the
comprehensive
response
of
dr
gali
I'll
just
add
on
I'll
quickly.
Show
you
just
a
slide
here
that
is
suggestive.
We
saw
mobility
down
23
on
new
year's
compared
to
baseline
traffic
a
year
prior
now.
That
would
make
some
sense,
but
what's
interesting,
those
are
volumes
that
we
haven't
seen
since
late
march,
when
we
did
the
initial
stay-at-home
order
on
march
19th,
and
so
people
are
reducing
their
activities
and
mixing,
which
is
helping
mitigate
the
spread
of
this
virus.
C
Accordingly,
you
can
see
here,
we've
also
stepped
up
our
enforcement
again,
not
in
a
way
to
be
punitive,
but
a
way
of
educating
and
addressing,
and
it's
very
relevant
down
in
southern
california,
particularly
la
and
the
mayor,
has
been
outstanding
in
terms
of
highlighting
at
the
issues
of
super
spreader
events,
larger
parties,
and
so
we
have
been
deployed
in
partnership
with
the
cities
and
counties
with
efforts
to
reach
out
to
bars
and
restaurants
that
are
still
operating,
but
not
operating
appropriately.
You
can
see
just
on
this
slide.
C
26
counties
in
particular
over
1600
bars
and
restaurants,
were
visited
next
day
close
to
a
thousand
were
visited.
We
also
been
working
in
other
parts
of
the
state
in
partnership
in
san
diego,
on
an
effort
to
do
similar
outreach
and
visits
again,
not
with
I'd,
been
punitive,
not
looking
to
find
folks,
though
there
have
been
some
fines
but
to
get
people
into
compliance
or
get
people
to
do
the
right
thing.
Accordingly,
we've
seen
the
same
efforts
with
large
events.
C
There
was
this
annual
snow
globe
concert
got
a
lot
of
attention
at
least
up
in
northern
california,
and
that
was
a
proactive
effort
led
by
the
abc
and
others
to
work
to
address
some
of
the
enforcement.
So
you
educate
a
lot
more
on
psas,
we
talked
a
lot
about
that.
You
encourage
through
just
enlightened
enforcement,
not
again
putative,
but
compliance
enforcement.
C
That
is
our
annual
right
as
we
release
our
our
next
fiscal
year
budget
this
week,
every
year
in
january
and
begin
the
process
of
deliberating
with
the
california
legislature.
So
with
that,
look
forward
to
updating
you
more
on
the
vaccine
distributions
and
look
forward
to
updating
you
more
on
the
progress
to
mitigate
the
spread
and
terminate
this
pandemic.
Take
care.
