From YouTube: Governor Newsom's COVID-19 Update - May 22, 2020
Description
Governor Gavin Newsom provides an update on the state's response to the COVID-19 outbreak from Yountville, California.
In the ongoing efforts to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, Governor Gavin Newsom today launched California Connected, the state’s comprehensive contact tracing program and public awareness campaign. As part of California Connected, public health workers from communities across the state will connect with individuals who test positive for COVID-19 and work with them, and people they have been in close contact with, to ensure they have access to confidential testing, as well as medical care and other services to help prevent the spread of the virus.
The state’s program is led by the Administration in collaboration with the California Department of Public Health, local public health departments and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Los Angeles (UCLA), which have launched a robust online training academy to develop a culturally competent and skilled contact tracing workforce.
To prevent the spread of this virus, public health workers will connect Californians with confidential testing. They may also recommend medical care, and that individuals who could be infectious separate themselves from others in their home to protect those around them. Information provided to local public health departments is confidential under California law. Public health authorities will not share that information with outside entities. That information will be used for public health purposes only. Contact tracers will not ask for financial information, social security numbers or immigration status.

C
American
heroes
are
veterans.
We
are
so
blessed
to
be
part
of
this
system
here
in
the
state
of
california,
our
calvett's
leadership,
that's
assembled
here
and
lisa
and
stephanie,
and
the
secretary
of
veterans
affairs,
who,
just
in
a
moment
I'll,
introduce
that
we're
here
on
memorial
day
weekend
or
the
kickoff
of
memorial
day
weekend.
C
This
is
an
important
weekend.
My
grandfather,
arthur
menzies,
spent
close
to
five
years
as
a
prisoner
of
war.
I
was
in
corregidor
and
bataan
and
he
struggled
and
suffered
not
only
to
survive
in
the
internment
camps,
but
to
come
back
into
society
where,
ultimately,
tragically,
he
took
his
own
life,
as
so
many
those
that
were
torn
asunder
in
conflict
and
in
wars.
It's
not
just
those
that
lose
their
lives
on
the
battlefield.
It's
those
that
lose
our
flies
coming
back
home
that
never
left
the
battlefield.
C
And
so
I
want
to
just
express
my
deep
respect
and
admiration
on
memorial
day,
also
to
veterans
and
those
that
have
come
back
from
these
more
contemporary
wars.
Oversea
and
also
just
extend
our
heartfelt
thank
you
and
deep
respect
and
acknowledgement
to
the
challenges,
travails
and
struggles
that
so
many
of
our
veterans
continue
to
have
as
they
come
back
from
those
horrific
experiences
in
combat
and
other
experiences.
D
C
Outstanding
frontline
staff-
that
is
not
something
every
governor
in
the
state
of
california,
rather
across
this
country,
not
just
in
the
state
of
california,
can
say
the
reality
is
a
lot
of
our
veterans.
Homes
have
been
disproportionately
impacted
by
coven
19
and
the
spread
of
this
virus.
A
lot
of
our
american
heroes
from
world
war
ii,
not
just
the
korean
war,
vietnam,
war
or
iraqi
freedom
and
other
wars
that
are
housed
and
supported
in
institutions
like
this
have
been
immune
from
the
spread
of
the
virus.
C
Quite
the
contrary,
there
have
been
some
horrific
headlines
and
tragic
lives,
lost
and
examples
where
the
insidiousness
of
this
disease
spread
like
wildfire
through
facilities
like
this
across
the
country.
That
has
not
been
the
case,
and
I
say
this
cautiously
soberly
not
been
the
case
to
date
in
the
state
of
california.
C
Throughout
our
entire
system,
eight
hospitals.
We
have
had
just
three
patients
test
positive
for
covet.
19.
we've
had
a
number
of
staff,
but
the
overwhelming
majority
of
staff
all
but
two
have
recovered
and
are
back
at
work,
and
that's
because
of
the
seriousness
of
purpose
that
was
advanced
weeks
before
california's
stay-at-home
order
was
put
into
place
by
our
secretary
of
veterans
affairs.
C
As
a
consequence,
vito
and
his
team
were
able
to
put
together
38
specific
prescriptive
guidelines
on
infectious
disease
control
on
temperature
checks
and
symptom
text
checks
for
patients,
as
well
as
staff
just
coming
in
here
today.
You
can
see
the
seriousness
of
this.
It's
like
the
tsa
times
infinity
in
terms
of
the
number
of
checkpoints
and
people
that
are
asking
you
personal
questions
about
where
you've
traveled
and
your
current
symptoms
and
your
health
doing
temperature
checks,
people
wearing
masks
throughout
this
facility
and
the
seriousness
of
the
sanitation
that
has
been
put
into
place.
C
D
So
ever
since
my
earliest
years,
I
was
a
victim
of
the
polio
epidemic
in
the
early
1950s
and
I
was
in
medical
school
at
the
university
of
vermont
when
the
hiv
a
virus
that
caused
aids
became
epidemic
itself
and
because
of
those
experiences,
I
always
follow
the
cdc
reports
on
the
emergence
of
rare
and
exotic
diseases
wherever
they
are,
and
when
I
heard
in
december
that
a
strange
new
disease
which
was
highly
contagious
and
highly
lethal,
had
emerged
in
asia.
I
immediately
convened
our
senior
leadership.
D
D
Thanks
to
the
governor,
we
have
a
number
of
systems
in
place.
For
example,
the
veterans
homes
have
a
physician
in
each
home
and
we
have
specially
trained,
registered
nurses
who
are
expert
in
infection
control.
We
teach
every
one
of
our
employees,
all
three
thousand
employees.
It
doesn't
matter
what
your
job
is,
whether
you're
a
cook,
a
nurse's,
aide
or
a
groundskeeper.
D
D
All
their
guidance
is
basically
common
sense,
plus
a
10th
grader's
knowledge
of
of
germ
theory,
and
we
applied
it
to
the
veterans
homes.
We
just
did
it
a
month
before
everyone
else
and
and
two
weeks
before
the
state
and
I'm
delighted
that
we
have
such
success
in
protecting
the
the
wonderful
men
and
women
who
are
our
connection
to
our
past.
D
I
lost
my
own
father.
This
week
he
was
98
year
old,
veteran
of
world
war
ii,
a
marine
fought
in
the
solomon
islands.
We
honor
him
as
we
do
all
veterans
who
died
defending
this
nation.
That's
what
decoration
day
and
now
memorial
day
is,
but
our
connection
to
that
history
is
by
honoring
the
men
and
women
that
live
in
all
of
our
veterans,
homes,
and
my
final
salute
is
to
the
extraordinarily
talented
and
dedicated
staff
that
I
have
at
all
the
homes,
the
leadership,
the
rank
and
file
to
work
at
calvet
and
to
work.
D
Taking
care
of
these
veterans
is
not
just
a
job,
it's
a
mission
and
that
probably
explains
why
we
have
extraordinary
attendance
rates
from
from
all
of
our
workers,
even
during
the
highest
point
of
the
pandemic.
So
thank
you
again,
governor
for
your
trust
in
me.
I'm
delighted
to
do
this
job.
Thank
you.
C
Thank
you,
mr
secretary
and
doctor,
mr
secretary,
and
I
think
that's
an
important
point.
There's
simply
not
a
state
in
the
nation
that
has
secretary
of
veterans
affairs
also
happens
to
be
a
doctor,
and
I
think
fundamentally
and
foundationally
that
has
been
determinative
as
well
in
keeping
the
infection
rate
down
here.
Not
only
again,
this
facility
built
in
1884.
C
same
time
for
what
it's
worth
the
washington
monument
was
built.
It
was
that
same
year
that
gentleman
by
the
name
of
mark
twain,
finished
the
adventures
of
huckleberry
finn.
This
facility
went
up
still
maintaining
itself
as
the
largest
in
the
united
states
of
america.
We've
got
eight
facilities
in
this
state.
Some
are
as
small
as
just
60,
or
so
this
with
capacity
that
can
get
to
900,
roughly
a
thousand
roughly
750
people
are
being
cared
for
currently
at
this
facility.
So
again,
I
just
want
to
thank
the
secretary,
his
team
and
their
outstanding
leadership.
C
The
seriousness
of
purpose,
as
I
suggest
that
they
have
taken
in
terms
of
their
mission-
and
I
love
that
he
frames
this
as
a
mission
and
a
calling
not
just
a
job
in
a
vocation
to
help
protect
these
american
heroes.
Let
me
extend
as
well
a
few
updates
that
extend
off
the
narrative
of
protecting
the
health
of
40
million
americans
in
the
state
of
california
that
reside
here.
C
We
are
now
moving
through,
as
many
of
you
know,
a
variance
process
in
the
state,
as
we
make
meaningful
modifications
to
our
original
state
manufacturing,
warehousing
logistics,
retail
sector
reopening
in
real
time.
The
restaurant
industry
reopening,
including
in
this
region
of
the
state
currently
43
counties
out
of
the
58
counties
in
the
state
of
california,
have
provided
attestation
of
containment
plans
and
protection
plans
that
allow
them
to
move
deeper
into
phase
two.
C
We
are
putting
more
and
more
responsibility
on
counties,
not
only
as
we
move
three
through
phase
two,
but
also
into
phase
three
we're
getting
to
reopen
all
sectors
of
our
economy.
This
is
happening
in
real
time
and
it's
an
iterative
and
dynamic
process.
Today
we
have
43
that
have
self
attestation
plans
that
have
been
put
up.
I
expect
by
later
this
afternoon
and
early
this
evening
as
many
as
45
counties,
we'll
expect
even
more
over
the
course
of
the
next
number
of
days.
C
Our
commitment
is
to
continue
to
work
with
city
and
county
leaders
all
throughout
the
state
of
california,
to
address
their
concerns
and
their
particular
issues.
This
process
has
been
remarkably
collaborative.
There
are
a
few
examples
that
are
exceptions
in
the
state
of
california
that
tend
to
get
highlighted
disproportionately,
but
I
just
want
to
express
this.
Their
exceptions
and
the
incredible
spirit
of
collaboration
and
cooperation
is
demonstrable
in
the
engagement
with
city
and
county
health
directors
and
city
of
county
elected
officials
from
every
part
of
the
state
of
california,
and
that
includes
faith
leaders.
C
We've
been
working
throughout
the
diverse,
well
interfaith
community
and
within
the
diversity
of
our
faith-based
leadership,
all
up
and
down
the
state
working
on
the
differentiation,
the
large
mega
churches
versus
more
neighborhood
style
churches,
the
different
styles
of
pews
and
sanitation
protocols
and
synagogues
versus
working
with
other
faiths.
We've
been
working
on
those
sectoral
guidelines
and
we
are
just
days
away
at
the
latest.
C
We
didn't
wait
for
the
cdc
guidelines.
As
many
of
you
know,
cdc
guidelines
haven't
even
been
made
public
in
any
meaningful
way
yet,
but
we
do
look
forward.
We
are
told
that
they're
coming
out
today
to
take
a
look
at
those
guidelines
and
see
if
there's
things
in
there,
that
we
hadn't
already
considered
over
the
course
of
the
last
few
weeks.
C
Those
43
to
date
are
that
they
have
to
have
the
ability
to
toggle
back
and
address
the
virulent
spread
of
covid19,
if,
indeed
the
numbers
bear
that
out
hospitalization
capacity,
testing
capacity,
appropriate
levels
of
ppe
protocols
and
procedures
that
keep
their
communities
safe
and
healthy.
Let
me
just
give
you
an
example
of
a
county
that
continues
to
be
of
concern
in
the
state
of
california
county.
We
care
deeply
about
that's
imperial
county.
C
I
mentioned
just
a
few
days
ago,
and
I've
mentioned
in
previous
occasions:
we've
been
watching
imperial
county
as
a
county,
that's
not
densely
populated,
but
is
really
one
of
the
most
beautiful
counties
in
the
state
of
california
and
it's
a
county
that
has
resources.
But
often
those
resources
are
stretched.
C
They
have
a
few
hospitals
in
that
county.
Currently,
those
hospitals
are
stretched
because
of
a
number
of
people
that
have
ended
up
that.
I
have
coveted
related
concerns
into
that
hospital
system.
We've
sent
out
a
team
and
we
are
putting
a
field
medical
station
in
imperial
county
up
to
125
beds
to
help
decompress
their
hospital
system.
They've
been
utilizing
ventilators.
They
were
up
to
70
plus
percent
of
their
ventilators
in
use.
C
Last
week
I
mentioned
that
on
a
few
separate
occasions
today,
it's
about
52
but
we're
making
sure
that
we
get
down
there
with
appropriate
ppe
and
make
sure
that
our
cal
mat
teams
are
present
as
well
as
calgar
is
present.
So
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
the
kind
of
deployment
that
you
may
see
in
the
future
if
we
start
to
see
some
incidences
of
spread.
That
cannot
be
contained,
particularly
in
communities
that
don't
necessarily
have
the
resources
of
other
communities.
C
There
were
elected
officials
and
leaders
that
were
the
anti-mass
brigade
that
were
disgusted
by
the
idea
that
people
would
appear
so
weak
by
having
masks,
as
opposed
to
the
strength
that,
I
think,
is
the
symbol
of
wearing
a
mask.
So
many
of
the
tenets
of
that
history,
they
say
history
doesn't
repeats
itself,
doesn't
repeat
itself,
but
it
certainly
rhymes.
C
We
saw
an
increase
in
the
number
of
positive
cases.
Yesterday,
in
the
state
of
california,
we
saw
88
more
human
beings,
88
more
families
torn
apart
because
of
deaths
related
to
this
virus
in
the
last
24
hours.
So
if
you,
by
any
stretch
of
the
imagination,
think
just
because
the
sun
has
come
up
and
there's
a
sense
of
optimism
that
there's
more
light
not
just
in
surrounding
environment
but
at
the
end
of
this
proverbial
in
figurative
tunnel.
C
7.5
percent
over
a
14-day
period
in
hospitalizations
6.1
percent
decline
in
total
number
of
people
in
icus
and
by
the
way
those
numbers
are
more
significant
than
they
may
appear
in
this
respect.
Those
come
off
relatively
stable
numbers
over
the
course
of
many
many
weeks.
Remember
we're
not
coming
off
a
peak
and
seeing
precipitous
decline,
we're
coming
off
a
relatively
stable
trend
and
still
seen
some
declines
in
icus
and
hospitalizations
and
by
the
way
those
are
the
14
day
trends,
but
we
also
saw
a
reduction
yesterday.
But
again
I
caution
all
of
you.
C
C
We
announced
a
few
weeks
ago,
a
partnership
with
ucsf
and
ucla
partnership
with
the
university
of
california
system
to
train
tracers
to
work
with
our
existing
infrastructure
of
close
to
3
000
tracers
that
already
exists
in
our
county
health
system
and
to
supplement
that
workforce.
The
goal
is
ten
thousand
the
phase,
one
goal
with
the
capacity
to
go
up
to
about
eighteen
thousand.
With
a
second
phase
goal,
we
had
500
people
that
were
our
first
cohort
that
were
trained
a
week
ago.
C
300
people
are
in
this
new
cohort,
and
now
we
have
a
workforce
of
roughly
five
percent
of
those
that
are
not
in
24
7
jobs
within
the
state
of
california.
That
will
provide
us
the
human
capital
to
get
trained
and
commit
six
months
to
become
part
of
this
tracing
court.
That
will
get
us
to
that
ten
thousand
goal.
Today
we
launched
california
connected
and
that's
a
psa
campaign
to
explain
people
what
tracing
really
is
and
what
it's
not
because
none
of
us
are
naive.
C
I'm
certainly
not
naive
when
you
get
a
call
from
some
stranger
on
the
phone
saying
they
work
with
government.
Not
everybody
is
pleased
to
receive
those
calls.
Some
may
actually
think
it's
fraudulent.
Some
may
just
be
more
reticent
to
tell
the
truth
about
what's
going
on
or
even
comfortable
of
spending,
a
time
having
a
two-way
conversation
and
that's
why
it's
really
important
as
we
train
the
tracers
and
build
off
the
existing
infrastructure.
That's
been
in
place
for
years
and
years
as
it
relates
to
tracing
other
diseases
like
measles
and
tuberculosis,
hiv
and
aids.
C
C
That's
part
of
it
we're
reaching
out
to
communities
that
traditionally
have
not
been
reached
out
to,
as
it
relates
to
infectious
disease
control,
translating
not
just
documents
in
multiple
languages,
but
getting
trusted
messengers
from
within
communities
to
let
folks
know
that
it's
in
not
only
their
interests
but
their
community
and
their
loved
ones,
interests
to
work
with
these
trained
professionals
and
provide
information
in
a
confidential
manner.
None
of
this
information
is
shared.
None
of
this
information
will
ever
ever
leave
the
vault.
That
is
a
public
health
frame.
C
This
is
all
about
mitigating
spread
and
allowing
us
to
move
to
reopen
our
economy
much
much
faster
than
we
otherwise
would
so,
while
testing
has
substantially
improved
and
by
the
way
one
and
a
half
million
tests
have
now
been
conducted,
those
are
pcr
tests,
not
the
antibody
tests.
There's
some
states
lovingly.
I
say
this
that
are
conflating
the
antibody
tests
and
pcr
tests.
We're
not
those
are
just
the
traditional
swab
based
pcr
tests
that
you've
become
well
accustomed
to
in
the
media,
and
maybe
personally
for
those
of
you
that
have
been
tested.
C
Our
testing
now
is
averaging
over
45
000
tests
a
day.
The
good
news,
the
positivity
rate,
is
holding
steady.
Why
does
that
matter?
I'll
remind
everybody?
It's
foundational,
as
you
exponentially
increase
and
remember,
we
were
doing
2
000
tests
a
day
just
six
or
so
weeks
ago,
now
we're
doing
over
45
000
tests.
Today,
when
you
increase
the
number
of
tests,
you're
going
to
by
definition,
likely
see
an
increase
in
the
total
number
of
positives.
What
we
look
at,
though,
is
percentage
of
people
testing
positive
to
those
the
denominator
that
have
been
tested.
C
We
have
been
about
4.1
percent
positivity
rate
over
the
last
seven
days.
That's
very
encouraging.
It's
been
4.4
percent
if
you
pull
back
over
a
14
day
period,
but
those
positivity
rates
are
holding
steady
even
as
our
testing
substantially
improves
and
increases,
and
I
say,
improves
not
just
increases,
because
the
improvement
is
where
we're
doing
the
tests
focusing
on
rural
parts
of
the
state,
getting
more
testing
facilities
in
northern
california,
up
into
mendocino
lake
counties
and
also
within
our
diverse
populations
in
the
state
into
black
and
brown
communities.
C
Today
I
get
my
morning
inventory.
Over
86.4
million
procedure.
Masks
have
now
come
into
the
state.
These
large
contracts
that
have
gotten
so
much
attention
are
producing
real
results
and
those
results
are
very,
very
relevant
to
the
reopening
of
our
economy,
because
those
masks
come
in.
Those
masks
go
out
not
just
to
facilities
like
this,
but
also
to
sectors
that
can
help
open
the
economy
quicker,
getting
them
into
the
grocery
sector,
the
food
supply
sector,
the
logistics
manufacturing
sector.
So
again,
good
news
on
the
ppe
progress
on
the
tracing
and
tracking
and
progress
on
testing.
C
Though
again,
all
those
things
have
to
continue
to
improve.
No
one's
naive
about
that
and
progress
on
the
reopening
of
the
california
economy,
and
so
I
want
to
just
to
leave
you
with
that,
as
we
move
into
the
weekend
in
the
spirit
of
some
optimism
more
guidelines
coming
out
over
the
course
of
the
next
days,
and
certainly
into
the
latter
part
of
next
week,
even
more
will
be
statewide
as
well
as
regionals.
So
that's
the
purpose
of
today
and
update,
as
always
at
these
press
conferences
and
now
look
forward
to
answering
any
questions.
E
Hi,
governor
scott
shaffer
from
kqed
I'll
be
asking
questions
today
on
behalf
of
journalists
across
the
state
and
beyond
no
surprise.
A
number
of
outlets
are
curious
about
your
thoughts
on
president
trump's
comments
today
he
called
churches
essential
and
said
that
he'll
override
governors
who
do
not
allow
houses
of
worship
to
resume
in
person
services
immediately
and,
as
you
know,
there
were
some
twelve
hundred
churches
in
california
that
have
announced
their
intention
to
ignore
the
shelter
in
place
directive.
So
what
is
your
response
to
the
president's
statement
and
what
is
your
plan
for
churches?
C
Yeah,
no,
we
we
said
going
back
last
the
beginning
of
this
week.
We've
said
a
lot
in
this
space
that
we've
been
engaging
faith
community.
We
look
forward
to
church's
reopening
in
a
safe
and
responsible
manner,
and
we
have
guidelines
that
we
anticipated
completing
on
monday
and
we're
on
track
to
do
just
that.
We
appreciate
the
cdc
is
apparently
going
to
be
providing
today
we're
told
some
recommendations,
we'll
take
a
look
at
those,
but
we
haven't
waited
around
for
the
federal
administration's
recommendations
in
this
space.
E
C
We're
close,
as
I
said
as
well
on
monday,
that
we
believe
around
the
8th
of
june
plus
or
minus
these
days
are
are
just
10
poles
of
of
approximate
timelines,
where
we
are
putting
out
guidelines
not
just
for
casinos
but
card
rooms
as
well.
Had
some
wonderful
phone
calls
within
this
sector
tribal
leaders.
C
Just
a
few
days
ago,
a
hundred
plus
tribal
leaders
getting
their
feedback
and
they're
helping
us
organize
the
guidance
they
have
been
incredible
in
terms
of
not
only
being
supportive
of
the
engagement
but
providing
us
some
incredibly
enriching
and
robust
ideas
on
public
health.
One
of
the
largest
tribes
in
the
united
states
that
happens
to
be
here
in
the
state
of
california
has
been
consulting
with
john
hopkins
university,
been
working
very
collaboratively
with
their
county
health
director.
C
They
provided
us
some
really
remarkable
and
robust
and
detailed
ideas
that
we
believe
can
be
advanced
as
best
practices
across
the
sector.
It's
just
an
example
of
the
collaborative
spirit.
I
know
there
are
a
few
a
few
here
and
there
that
have
decided
to
move
a
little
bit
earlier
against
the
advice
of
their
local
county
health
directors.
But
the
vast
majority
are
working
very
collaboratively
with
the
state
and
we're
looking
forward
to
putting
out
those
guidelines
in
just
a
matter
of
days
and
weeks.
E
Governor
a
question
from
jeremy
white
at
politico,
as
you
know,
there
was
a
lawsuit
filed
yesterday
by
congressional
candidate
darrell
isa
and
others
challenging
the
legality
of
your
vote
by
mail
executive
order.
How
concerned
are
you
about
that?
Adding
uncertainty
to
the
november
election
and
will
you
push
for
legislation
from
the
state
legislature
to
be
on
firmer
legal
ground.
C
We're
on
firm
legal
ground
vote
by
mail
is
not
novel
in
the
state
of
california,
nor
was
it
in
a
recent
special
election,
but
we're
confident
in
the
the
effort
and
we
believe
it's
the
right
thing.
We
also
believe
it's
a
non-partisan
issue.
Public
health
is
a
nonpartisan
issue.
We
want
to
keep
people
safe
and
you'll
still
have
points
of
contact
for
people
that
are
disabled
people
that
are
not
as
familiar
with
vote
by
mail.
C
C
I
think
there's
five
plus
states
that
do
vote
by
mail,
but
I
think
it's
a
responsible
thing
to
do
to
encourage
people
to
vote
and
have
an
alternative
to
waiting
in
line
and
potentially,
potentially
especially
going
back
into
the
fall
and
experiencing
a
second
wave
that
could
put
that
election
at
risk.
I
think
elections
are
too
important.
I
think
mr
isis
election
is
too
important.
C
I
would,
I
think,
it's
always
healthy
when
people
weigh
in
and
extend
legislature
which,
by
the
way,
trust
me
weighed
in
worked
very
collaboratively
with
us
on
the
executive
order.
More
importantly,
it's
been
working
very
collaboratively
with
the
secretary
of
state
and
we
appreciate
their
work
and
the
extent
they
want
to
codify
it.
I
think
that
could
help
as
well.
Why
not.
E
Question
from
my
colleagues
at
kqed,
the
state's
guidance
still
directs
californians,
to
quote
not
gather
with
any
number
of
people
who
are
not
members
of
your
household.
Do
you
expect
changes
to
guidance
around
small
gatherings
and
how
does
this
fit
into
the
reopening
road
map
you've
created
for
businesses
and
schools.
C
This
all
is
part
of
the
iterative
process.
We
said
it's
a
dynamic
process
and
all
of
this
will
begin
to
change
every
single
point
of
reference
specific
in
general.
That's
reflected
in
that
stay-at-home
order.
We
expect
to
change.
So
the
answer
is
yes.
We
expect
that
to
change
by
definition,
this
is
not
a
permanent
state.
C
We
are
in
this
current
stay-at-home
order
because
of
a
state
of
emergency
because
of
the
spread
of
19.,
it
wasn't
last
year,
it
was
just
a
few
weeks
ago
that
this
was
brought
to
everybody's
attention
in
very
acute
ways,
including
the
president
who
universally
was
focused
on
the
needs
of
states,
ventilators,
personal
protective
gear
and
actually
was
criticized,
and
I
think
one
state
from
moving
too
quickly
to
reopen
just
a
few
weeks
ago,
not
years
ago.
It's
a
way
of
expressing
this.
C
I
want
folks
not
to
develop
amnesia
that
this
disease
is
still
with
us,
and
people
literally
are
dying.
People
are
losing
their
lives,
including
88
families,
completely
destroyed
this
memorial
day
and
our
mourning
for
the
loss
of
a
loved
one,
and
we
need
to
protect
people
in
the
extent
that
we
are
guided
by
health.
We
are
by
science
by
data
a
lot
of
good
data
coming
out
in
terms
of
stability
and
spread,
but
that's
because
of
the
extraordinary
work
of
40
million
californians
practicing
physical
distancing.
C
I
just
encourage
them
to
continue
to
do
the
same
and
the
more
we
do
to
stabilize
the
situation.
The
quicker
we'll
be
able
to
move
forward
with
those
modifications.
But
again
this
is
not
months
and
months
of
a
permanent
state.
It's
a
dynamic
state
and
every
week
every
week
we
will
be
making
modifications.
E
Governor
a
question
from
associated
press
assembly
budget
chair
phil
ting,
pointed
out
today
that
the
state
doesn't
declare
emergencies
and
give
you
complete
authority
to
do
whatever
you
want.
Then
those
may
be
his
words
when,
when
we're
fighting
things
like
heart
disease
and
cancer,
the
question
is
now
that
we
are
two
months
into
this
pandemic
and
the
number
of
hospitalizations
have
stabilized.
You
still
believe
you
need
these
emergency
powers
to
spend
public
money
with
little
oversight.
Why
or
why
not?
It.
C
E
C
Impact
what
I
love
about
that
question.
It's
a
wonderful
bookmark!
The
previous
question
was
governor
need
to
work
with
the
legislature.
This
question
is:
how
can
you
bypass
the
legislature
and
to
sign
an
executive
order?
As
I
just
said,
the
last
question
and
answer
I'll
answer
it
consistently.
I
look
forward
to
working
with
the
legislature.
C
I'm
now
on
four
separate
occasions
been
asked
that
question
specifically
on
four
separate
occasions.
I
expressed
a
deep
desire
to
reconcile
this,
but
also
was
very
specific
about
how
proud
I
am
to
work
with
scott
weiner.
Who's
got
a
bill
on
this
and
working
with
scott
and
many
other
members
legislature,
including
the
lgbtq
caucus
of
which
I
had
the
privilege
of
spending
some
time
with
a
week
ago.
They
have
a
bill.
They
would
like
to
advance
that
bill.
E
Question
from
doug
sovereign
at
kcbs,
many
hospitals
and
medical
professionals
are
still
struggling
to
procure
adequate
ppes
and
are
even
reusing
masks.
I
know
you
said
millions
of
masks
are
in
the
pipeline,
but
how
are
restaurants
and
retail
stores
supposed
to
compete
to
get
masks,
sanitizer
and
other
protective
equipment
they
need
in
order
to
reopen
safely
under
the
new
guidelines?.
C
So
over
two
weeks
ago,
in
fact,
two
weeks
ago,
to
the
day,
I
believe
we
announced-
though
the
days
and
weeks
go
by
so
I
may
be
off-
we
announced
11
million
masks
had
been
distributed.
Just
on
that
friday,
I
announced
exactly
where
they
were
distributed.
You
may
recall
we
distributed
to
department
of
education,
masks
to
in-home
support
service
workers
to
our
child
care
facilities.
C
We
announced
millions
and
millions
of
masks
went
to
farm
workers
in
this
state,
and
I
also
announced
millions
of
masks
went
into
our
food
sector,
including
grocery
stores,
not
just
large
chains,
but
need
desire
to
get
it
into
smaller,
grocery
stores.
The
reason
I
went
through
that
litany
a
few
weeks
back.
The
reason
I
highlighted
those
11
million
masks
was
not
in
anticipation
of
that
question,
but
in
recognition
of
the
need
to
provide
more
personal
protective
gear
so
that
we
can
reopen
our
economy
in
a
much
more
swift,
robust
way.
C
C
We
now
have
a
constructive
process,
as
it
relates
to
personal
care,
industry,
broadly
defined
and
making
sure
we
get
feedback
to
put
out
guidelines
in
that
space.
Ppe
is
a
big
part
of
that
conversation.
The
extent
that
the
state
of
california
can
service
that
gap
recognizing
how
difficult
it's
been
for
everybody
to
procure
ppe.
E
Governor
question
from
jacqueline
mclean
of
kfsn
abc
30
in
the
central
valley.
What
actions
will
the
state
take
against
counties
that
reopen
into
phase
three
without
state
approval?
For
example,
just
this
week,
the
tulare
county
board
of
soups
voted
to
allow
its
county
to
reopen
into
phase
three.
Yet
the
county
continues
to
see
high
daily
positive
test
results
and
deaths.
C
Yeah
it
breaks.
My
heart
should
break
your
heart.
Families
of
loved
ones
that
are
impacted
that
may
not
have
been
impacted
by
kobe
19.
They
have
a
loved
one
lost.
Their
life
would
not
otherwise
lost
their
life,
because
people
aren't
working
in
the
spirit
of
collaboration
with
their
health
professionals
that
understand
the
virulence
of
this
disease
and
understand
the
consequences
of
being
flippant
about
the
moment.
I'm
deeply
sensitive
and
I
have
deep
admiration,
respect
for
the
elected
officials
in
tulare
county.
I
want
them
to
know
that
and
I
want
them
to
know.
C
I
understand
their
deep
desire
that
I
share
to
reopen
every
aspect.
Economy,
go
back
to
normalcy
that
we
had
just
a
hundred
days
ago
and
as
they
are
well
aware,
we
are
working
collaboratively
with
them,
but
they
want
to
go
deeper
into
the
next
phase,
against
the
advice
of
a
lot
of
our
health
officials
and
and
to
the
extent
we'll
continue
to
collaborate
continue
to
cooperate,
we
may
have
areas
of
this
agreement
by
the
way
it's
interesting.
C
The
county
officials
have
disagreed
with
a
lot
of
the
city
officials
or
the
city
officials
are
saying,
don't
put
this
pressure
on
us.
We
don't
want
to
go
as
quickly,
so
it's
a
dynamic
that
will
work
itself
out.
This
isn't
again
an
exception.
Overwhelming
majority
of
counties
are
working
very,
very
collaboratively.
C
I
don't
wake
up
to
look
to
be
punitive.
I
want
to
be
responsible
and
respectful
to
the
deep
economic
challenges
that
all
of
us
are
facing,
and
that's
why
the
vast
majority
of
the
sectors
of
our
economy
have
opened.
But
again,
these
modifications,
I
know,
are
difficult
and
are
very
vexing
for
business
leaders
as
they
navigate
these
very
very
difficult
times,
and
so
I
just
want
to
reflect
an
empathetic.
E
Governor
question
from
joe
matthews
from
sokolo
public
square
before
covet
a
third
of
californians,
including
half
our
kids,
were
on
medical.
Now
those
numbers
are
going
up.
Even
more
is
medi-cal
really
strong
enough
to
serve
14
or
15
million
californians
and
to
get
them
timely
access
to
high
quality
health
care.
Is
it
sustainable.
C
I
it
depends
how
you
define
sustainable
situational
situationally,
we're
required
to
do
more
and
do
better,
and
so
the
answer
is
in
the
current
short
term.
Yes,
we
have
to
absorb
those
responsibilities,
but
there
are
trend
lines
over
the
course
of
decades,
as
it
relates
to
adequacy
of
care,
cultural
competency
of
care,
geographic
disparity
of
care,
need
and
desire
to
train,
more
doctors
and
have
more
rural
areas
of
support
reimbursement
rates.
In
that
space
we
had
made
a
lot
of
progress
in
the
first
year
of
our
administration.
C
I
complement
governor
brown
for
the
progress
he
made
in
his
administration.
We
have
a
blueprint
for
real
reform.
It
was
referred
to
in
my
state
of
the
state
and
in
my
january
budget
as
cal
aim.
It
was
a
695
million
dollar
appropriation
to
cal
aim
that
I
was
hoping
to
make
this
year
working
with
budget
chair,
phil,
ting
and
others.
We
felt
it
was
inappropriate
with
all
the
magnitudes
of
the
cut
to
put
forth
those
reforms
at
this
stage
because
of
the
change
in
economic
conditions,
but
I'm
committed
long-term
to
those
reforms.
C
So
the
answer
to
the
question
is
long-term.
No,
but
we're
not
committed
to
the
status
quo,
long
term,
we're
committed
to
reforms.
We
have
the
architecture,
cal
aim
for
those
reforms
and
the
supports
that
we've
provided
in
terms
of
reinforcement
rates,
new
medical
schools
that
we
want
to
put
up
the
work,
we're
doing
to
reimburse
people
that
support
medi-cal
beneficiaries
and
paying
off
their
medical
debts
a
whole
panoply
of
reforms
that
are
part
of
our
package
of
substantively
answering
a
very
profoundly
important
question
that
deserves
more
than
just
a
sound
by
response.
E
C
Yeah
we're
working
very
very
closely.
In
fact,
I
was
just
talking
ahead
of
the
california
teachers.
Association
is
just
one
example,
but
profoundly
important
example
of
leadership
in
this
space,
reflecting
his
members
concerns
and
reminding
me
of
what
I
think
all
of
us
should
be
reminded
of,
and
that
is
the
nature
of
our
system.
That's
so
decentralized
throughout
the
state
of
california.
C
C
We
have
guidelines
that
will
be
updated.
We
already
have
had
guidelines
out
and
have
been
updated
on
multiple
occasions
for
child
care
facilities.
Those
will
be
updated
and
out
next
week
as
well.
We
have
summer
camp
and
summer
school
guidelines
we're
also
working
on.
I
expect
many
of
those
guidelines
to
be
made
public
within
a
week,
or
so
I
want
to
give
people
plus
or
minus.
C
I
deeply
want
to
be
able
to
answer
the
question.
My
kids
ask
me
as
well
as
kids
all
across.
When
can
I
go
to
camp
or
can
I
go
to
camp
and
if
summer
school
is
going
to
open?
What's
it
going
to
look
like,
I
just
did
a
psa
for
la
unified
school
district
as
one
example
on
their
summer
school
effort,
but
a
lot
of
that
was
around
distance
learning
in
that
space.
C
So
again,
this
is
a
dynamic
space
and
one
has
to
recognize
the
regionalism
and
the
localism
that
defines
the
education
space
broadly,
as
well
as
the
variations
that
are
being
advanced
as
it
relates
to
public
health
and
public
safety
through
our
modification,
the
stay-at-home
order
that
will
also
be
determinative
in
terms
of
recognizing
the
needs
of
summer
camps
and
the
public
needs
and
public
health,
not
just
safety
of
our
children.
I
want
to
thank
everybody,
as
always,
for
a
privilege
and
opportunity
of
sharing
some
of
these
thoughts
and
updates
with
all
of
you.
C
We
are
making
progress.
Reopening
this
economy,
make
no
mistake.
We
are
moving
this.
These
modifications
forward
and
meaningful
modifications
are
being
made
and
you're
seeing
that
translated
in
not
only
new
guidelines,
but
the
opening
of
restaurants
throughout
the
state
of
california,
retail
throughout
the
state
of
california,
soon
churches,
places
of
worship
throughout
the
state
of
california,
and
it
can't
come
any
time
too
soon.
C
We
hope
our
schools
in
a
safe
and
responsible
way
protecting
our
caregivers,
protecting
our
teachers,
protecting
our
support
staff
and
our
students
and
their
parents
always
top
of
mind
before
we
move
aggressively.
In
that
space,
I
encourage
everybody,
as
you
move
forward
aggressively
into
a
beautiful
weekend
that
usually
brings
people
together,
please
to
the
extent
possible,
stay
regionally
stay
close
to
the
cohort
that
you've
been
with
the
extent
you
go
out,
and
you
should
do
so
thoughtfully
and
abide
by
local
health
considerations
and
guidelines
and
wear
face
coverings
as
appropriate.
