C
Rather
for
our
state
and
increasingly
his
capacity
for
the
rest
of
the
nation.
The
state
of
California
recognizes
its
responsibility,
its
role
to
procure
from
far
and
wide
enough
ventilators
to
meet
this
moment.
State
has
been
very
aggressive,
reaching
out
the
private
sector
looking
at
existing
stock,
looking
at
our
cash
that
exists
in
multiple
storage
facilities
throughout
the
state
and
working
with
the
federal
government
to
get
the
national
stockpile
into
the
state
of
California.
The
challenge
is
multi-pronged.
The
challenge
is
more
than
I,
think
advertised.
C
It's
one
thing
to
procure
new
equipment,
it's
another
to
refurbish
old
equipment,
and
the
challenge
for
all
of
us
across
this
nation
is
to
do
so
with
a
sense
of
urgency
and
work
on
that
Silicon
Valley
timeline
and
that's
exactly
what
is
happening
here.
The
state
of
California,
for
example,
had
514
ventilators
that
hadn't
been
looked
at
in
unboxed
since
2011
many
of
the
batteries
were
not
only
past
their
sell-by
dates.
C
They
quite
literally,
were
not
working
and,
as
a
consequence,
we
sent
down
a
few
hundred
of
our
ventilators
and
asked
bloom
and
its
CEO
kr
and
Susan
a
CEO
here
and
said.
What
can
you
do
to
help
us
in
this
crisis?
It
was
quite
literally
on
the
well,
it
was
March
17th,
st.
Patrick's
Day,
and
then
we
made
those
first
calls-
and
here
you
see
behind
me.
A
hundreds
of
these
that
have
already
been
turned
around
80
were
sent
back
and
refurbished.
Yesterday
were
sent
back
to
the
state
for
distribution
across
the
state.
C
We
were
able
to
get
the
security
now
that
we
are
going
to
get
an
additional
100
sent
up
today
back
to
the
state
cash
and
remarkably
yesterday,
I
was
down
in
Los
Angeles
with
Mayor
Eric
Garcetti,
bringing
in
the
USNS
mercy,
and
there
was
a
casual
conversation
about
the
170
ventilators
that
came
from
the
national
stockpile
directly
to
LA
County.
The
conversation
wasn't
just
about
those
170.
It
was
about
the
fact
those
170
were
not
working
and
rather
than
lamenting
about
it,
rather
than
complaining
about
it
rather
than
pointing
fingers
rather
than
generating
headlines.
C
In
order
to
generate
more
stress
and
anxiety,
we
got
a
car
and
a
truck,
and
we
had
those
170
brought
here
to
this
facility
at
8
a.m.
this
morning,
and
they
are
quite
literally
working
on
those
ventilators
right
now
and
Monday
they'll.
Have
those
ventilators
back
into
Los
Angeles,
all
fixed,
that's
the
spirit
of
California.
That's
the
spirit
of
this
moment.
C
Take
responsibility,
take
ownership
and
take
it
upon
ourselves
to
meet
this
moment
head-on
and
that's
the
spirit
that
Kay
ours
brought
to
bloom
and
that's
the
spirit
that
we
hope
to
see
all
throughout
the
state
of
California
350.
Now
350
manufacturers
have
come
to
the
state
saying
we
want
to
offer
a
similar
approach
to
retooling
our
facilities
and
meeting
this
moment
tell
us
what
you
need
and
we
will
try
to
match
that
moment
with
the
kind
of
momentum
we're
seen
throughout
the
state
of
California.
C
I
want
to
be
quite
specific
when
I
say
that
the
gap
is
already
converting,
gowns
and
masks,
but
not
just
the
gap.
St.
John
nits
has
converted
their
lines
in
Tijuana
and
in
Irvine
California
to
do
the
same,
we're
seeing
hand
sanitizer
now
being
provided.
There's
been
a
lot
of
national
attention
on
this
with
old
distilleries.
Well,
you
have
anheuser-busch
doing
that
in
the
state
of
California
and
they're,
sending
out
to
our
food
banks
as
a
top
priority
and
to
make
sure
our
seniors
have
sanitizer.
C
In
their
homes,
in
those
through
our
IHSS
in-home,
supportive
service
system
have
the
same,
but
it's
not
just
anheuser-busch.
It
is
small
companies
like
dry
digging,
distillery
that
are
doing
exactly
the
same
thing,
large
and
small,
all
of
them
meeting
this
moment,
7-eleven
we're
picking
up
1
million
n95
masks
at
their
Stockton
facility.
They
called
us
up
and
said
you
can
have
them
so
you've
got
the
apples.
C
You've
got
the
Facebook's,
you
have
the
googles,
and
then
you
have
these
other
remarkable
stories
all
throughout
the
state
of
people,
meaning
this
moment,
but
no
more
important
moment
to
meet
than
addressing
the
issues
of
ventilators.
The
state
of
California
currently
has
independent
of
our
hospital
system.
We
have
procured
and
identified
some
4252
ventilators.
C
Our
goal
is
to
get
to
10,000
ventilators
of
those
4252
ventilators
over
a
thousand
need
to
be
refurbished,
and
so
we're
gonna
put
in
a
lot
more
pressure
on
kr
and
Susan
and
its
team
and
their
teams
to
continue
to
do
the
good
work
they're
doing
here
and
get
these
ventilators
out
in
real
time,
but
they're
also
doing
something
even
more
remarkable
and
that's
the
spirit
of
the
valley
and
kr.
We'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
this.
In
a
moment
we
just
had
a
conference
call
teleconference
call
with
a
leader
dr.
C
Wu,
at
Stanford
University
already
working
on
ventilators
2.0
kr
challenged
the
doctor,
the
doctor
challenged
kr
to
think
deeply
and
more
broadly
about
how
we
can
use
one
ventilator
for
potentially
multiple
patients
or
reduce
the
need
to
use
two
ventilators
for
one
patient,
which
is
the
case
in
many
circumstances
and
they're
already
iterating
in
that
space.
Again.
This
is
exactly
the
kind
of
spirit
that
defines
the
best
of
California,
the
best
of
Valley
best
of
the
American
spirit
as
well,
so
we'll
continue
to
procure
more
ventilators.
C
Elon
Musk
was
able
to
get
over
1200
for
us.
We've
already
ordered
2,000
that
are
on
the
way
and
we'll
continue
to
work
like
we
did
with
our
community
college
system
to
find
ventilators
they've
already
found
192
they
had
60
yesterday,
I
got
a
call
this
morning
from
the
Chancellor
saying
we're
up
to
192.
C
So
everybody
look
in
your
basement.
I,
look
in
that
old
garage
if
you've
got
old
equipment
and
you
want
to
send
it,
send
it
our
way
and
we'll
send
it
right
here
to
this
facility
and
I'll.
Tell
you
what's
remarkable
about
these
facilities
is
not
just
the
physical
infrastructure
of
converting
a
storage
facility
to
a
manufacturing
facility.
It's
the
men
and
women
in
the
masks
behind
me
that
are
volunteering
their
time
and
their
partnership
that
is
demonstrable
by
cross
pollinating.
C
Other
valley
based
businesses
that
have
a
unique
expertise
on
that
line
and
bringing
that
workforce
in
as
well
to
meet
this
moment.
So
there's
a
limitlessness
in
our
mindset,
a
limitlessness
in
the
possibility
that
we
believe
we
have
to
meet
this
moment
and
there
is
a
soberness
that
comes
with
that
moment
as
well.
Just
yesterday,
our
ICU
numbers
went
up
105
percent
over
night
in
the
state
of
California
or
hospitalization.
Numbers
went
up.
C
Thirty
eight
point:
six
percent
over
night
in
the
state
of
California
I
know
there's
a
lot
of
appropriate
attention
on
how
many
positives
there
are.
We
look
less
to
those
numbers
more
to
the
hospitalization
and
the
ICU
numbers
to
drive
our
policy
and
drive
our
orientation
around
how
we
address
that
policy
through
application
and
implementation,
the
Oh
all
numbers
went
up
22%,
they
were
up
26%.
Yesterday
you
start
doing
the
math.
This
is
now
made
more
real.
C
It
certainly
made
real
in
the
East
Coast
and
is
obviously
manifesting
as
a
lot
of
our
modeling
suggests
here
on
the
west
coast,
and
that's
why
physical
distancing
remains
the
most
important
thing
we
can
do
to
meet
this
moment.
I'm
asked
all
the
time
by
individuals.
What
can
I
as
an
individual,
do
to
meet
this
moment
head-on?
You
have
no
more
power
in
potency
in
terms
of
an
answer
that
question
then
physically
distancing
yourself
from
other
people.
Those
stay
at
home
orders
are
real
and
they
are
operational
in
the
state
of
California.
C
In
every
part
of
our
state,
please
continue
to
take
them
seriously.
People
ask
as
a
follow-up.
How
long
do
you
think
this
will
last
that
is
determined
on
our
decisions?
Not
our
conditions,
we're
not
fatalist.
I
say
this
all
the
time.
Our
fate
and
future
is
not
something
the
experience
it's
something
to
manifest.
If
we
make
the
decision
individual
by
individual
to
keep
ourselves
safe
by
keeping
other
people
at
distance
socially
connected
physically
apart,
then
we
have
the
capacity
to
bend
that
curve
and
the
one
treatment
if
we
are
unsuccessful
in
that
respect.
C
That
is
our
backup
in
our
message
here
today,
our
ventilators,
because
the
one
treatment
that
we
know
works
our
ventilators
and
the
one
treatment
we
have
at
our
disposal.
Our
ventilators
there's
a
lot
of
conversations,
none
more
than
here
in
the
state
of
California,
with
the
bio
innovations
and
biotherapeutics
the
birthplace
of
biotech,
the
U
sees
the
Stanford's.
The
u.s.
C
sees
the
Cedars
all
of
the
clinical
trials
that
are
happening,
cluding
stem
cell
in
the
state
of
California,
around
treatment
and
all
of
these
new
treatments
that
are
being
promoted,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
they're
one
treatment
that
we
know
works
our
ventilators,
and
so
we
need
more
of
them.
We
need
more
chaos,
we
need
more
blooms
and
we
need
more
people
to
recognize.
We
can
meet
this
moment
and
not
just
roll
over
and
accept
these
AI
programs.
C
These
data
sets
as
ultimate
determination
of
our
fate
when
we
can
bend
those
curves
by
bending
to
the
entrepreneurial
capacity
that
we
know
resides
within
this
state
and
across
the
nation.
So
that's
the
long-winded
message
today,
deep
pride,
a
deep
respect
for
what
is
happening
here
in
Silicon
Valley
and
now.
C
Mayor
Samuel
Accardo
is
one
of
those
leaders
and
I.
Just
cannot
thank
him
enough
and
thank
him
for
building
these
partnerships
in
helping
us
source.
The
resourceful
mindset
that
we
are
advancing
here
in
terms
of
the
conversations
today
in
the
conversations
over
the
course
of
the
next
few
weeks
to
meet
this
moment,
Sam
Locarno.
D
Governor
I
first
just
want
to
thank
you
for
exceptional
leadership,
and
I
mean
that
exceptional
leadership
in
this
crisis,
not
just
for
your
responsiveness
to
local
communities
like
ours
and
Silicon
Valley,
but
your
embrace
of
the
vision
of
Silicon
Valley
that
you
get
it
about
the
opportunity
that
Silicon
Valley
can
provide
to
tackle
this
crisis
with
innovation
and
I'm.
So
grateful
for
all
that.
You
and
your
team
have
done.
You
mentioned
local
leadership
and
I
need
to
clearly
acknowledge
what
the
County
of
Santa
Clara
has
done.
D
D
Being
amazed
being
amazed
at
all
the
work
that
KR
sardar
and
susan
brennan
and
their
teams
have
done
an
incredibly
short
period
of
time
and
how,
when
the
governor
put
out
a
call,
put
out
a
challenge
and
he
understood
in
Silicon
Valley
all
we
need
as
a
challenge
in
a
deadline
and
great
entrepreneurs
respond.
And
that's
what
we've
seen
from
kr
and
Susan
and
their
teams,
the
folks
behind
me
working
unbelievable
hours,
because
they
understand
the
urgency
of
this
moment.
And
you
know
this
isn't
just
a
story
about
brilliant
minds.
D
It's
about
inspired
hearts
and
I
am
so
just
it's
Owen
heartened
by
what
I
have
seen
from
the
incredible
people
behind
me
who
are
working
all
hours
in
finding
whatever
creative
way
they
can
to
make
things.
Work
and
I
really
have
to
give
credit
to
the
leadership
of
KR
sardar.
I
know
this
is
nothing
new
for
him
and
I
think
it's
probably
something
genetic
for
him
and
his
wife
Sudha,
because
I
met
I,
think
their
children,
even
before
I
met
KR.
D
Through
bloom
cells
I'm
just
so
incredibly
grateful
that
Bloom,
Energy
KR
and
their
entire
team
are
here
in
our
valley,
doing
such
great
work
for
all
of
us,
not
just
here,
but
obviously
now
throughout
the
nation.
Two
weeks
ago
I
got
a
call
from
KR
late
at
night,
and
he
had
mentioned.
He
was
working
with
the
the
governor's
team.
He
just
said
hey.
We
need
to
find
a
way
to
ensure
if
we
can
refurbish
these,
that
we
can
get
them
certified
and
tested
and
I
reached
out
to
dr.
D
Bonnie
Maldonado
at
Stanford
and
she
connected
them
and
their
team
to
the
pulmonary
lab
and
dr.
Wu
and
I
think
actually,
dr.
Wu
I
know
has
a
prior
relationship
with
kr
but
I'm.
Just
so.
Grateful
at
Stanford
stepped
up
immediately
to
ensure
the
testing
certification
could
happen.
It
is
here
in
Silicon
Valley,
where
we
can
confront
a
crisis
with
creativity
and
collaboration,
and
they
have
shown
that
here
and
as
we
mentioned
collaboration,
we
have
launched
an
effort
here
in
Silicon
Valley
called
Silicon
Valley
strong
and
at
Silicon
Valley,
strong
org.
D
Our
residents
can
find
how
to
get
and
give
help,
and
since
we
launched
it
within
a
couple
days,
we've
seen
1,700
volunteers
step
up
and
say
we
want
to
help
whether
it's
delivering
food
to
seniors
or
providing
any
other
kinds
of
critical
needs
that
we
have
in
our
nonprofits.
More
than
14
million
dollars
committed
and
partnership
with
destination
home
and
the
Community
Foundation.
So
many
others.
D
We
are
seeing
this
community
come
together
and
again
it's
the
creativity
and
collaboration
in
Silicon
Valley
of
making
it
happen
and,
of
course,
because
of
the
inspired
leadership
with
the
governor
behind
me.
I'm
just
really
grateful
to
be
here
to
be
inspired
by
all
that
is
happening
all
around
us
and
with
no
further
ado,
I'd
like
to
introduce
the
great
CEO
Bloom
Energy,
KR
sardar,.
E
Good
afternoon,
just
before
we
started
with
the
governor
with
the
mayor,
we
were
talking
to
the
state
of
fish
to
the
city
officials
and
the
county
officials.
Something
struck
me:
we,
the
people
here
in
Silicon
Valley,
and
we,
the
people
here
in
the
state
of
California,
are
so
fortunate
to
have
leadership
like
this.
E
People
who
are
in
public
service
are
not
thanked.
Oftentimes
during
a
crisis,
people
are
asking:
what
are
you
not
doing
for
me?
We
are
amazed,
they're
blown
away
with
the
extraordinary
leadership
of
Mayor
La
Cardo.
Here
in
the
city,
we
are
a
San
Jose
based
company.
Thank
you,
they're
amazed
at
the
Santa
Clara
County
officials,
elected
officials,
who
are
on
the
call
asking.
What
can
they
do
to
help
asking
great
questions
saying?
Can
we
do
this?
E
Can
we
do
that's
stretching
us
pulling
us
wanting
to
work
together
and,
of
course,
what
state
would
you
rather
right
now
people
of
California
are
big-government.
It
is
just
incredible
that
we
have
somebody
like
you.
You
know
during
a
time
of
crisis
is
when
leadership
gets
tested.
There
are
wartime
leaders,
and
there
are
peacetime
leaders,
you're
a
great
peacetime
leader
but
you're,
showing
you're
an
amazing
wartime
leader.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
So,
on
that
call,
we
had
dr.
E
There
is
an
incredible
amount
of
essential
services,
people
helping
us
as
common
citizens
when
we
are
all
dealing
with
this
and
when
you
see
one
of
them,
I
think
for
us,
as
the
average
resident
in
California.
The
minimum
we
can
do
is
to
reach
out
and
say
thank
you.
So
we
want
to
thank
each
one
of
you
working
out
there
for
what
you're
doing
the
third
things
that
I
would
want
to
give
is
to
my
amazing
team
out
here,
led
by
Susan
and
blanket
and
the
entire
leadership
team
here
at
blown.
E
It's
one
thing
for
me
to
put
my
hand
up
and
say
we
are
answering
the
call,
but
I
obviously
cannot
say
that
if
I
don't
have
a
team
whose
culture
who
in
their
DNA
embrace
the
notion
that
we
are
here
to
serve
so
without
you
guys
in
the
back,
we
you
know
I,
couldn't
be
standing
here
and
saying
that
we
will
do
this
you're
the
ones
doing
this
so
for
all
those
people
out
there
in
public
service
that
we
cannot
name
each
one
of
you
are
a
true
hero.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
E
So
that's
the
first
thing
to
say
what
did
we
do
is
simply
answer
a
call.
This
is
what
we
should
be
doing,
so
we
don't
think
we're
doing
anything
different
than
what
everybody
else
in
this
should
be
doing.
We
are
in
this
together.
We
like
working
together
and
at
a
time
of
need,
I
think
the
only
way
we
can
do.
What
we
want
to
do
is
to
understand
what
the
need
is
and
not
worry
about.
E
Let
me
help
you
that's
what
I
think
is
needed,
because
the
system,
no
matter
what
that
system
is,
is
overwhelmed
right
now
with
the
crisis,
but
we
can
underwhelm
it
with
our
initiative
and
hopefully
what
we
are
doing
here
is
to
say
we
can
do
this
if
week
ago,
none
of
us
knew
anything
about
ventilators
other
than
we
knew
what
it
was
being
used
for,
okay
and
but
at
the
at
the
end
of
the
day.
Here
is
what
we
knew
manufacturing
is
in
our
DNA.
E
Innovation
is
in
our
DNA.
There
are
electrical
devices,
mechanical
devices
flow
devices.
We
understand
them
all.
How
difficult
can
it
be
and
what
is
the
worst
thing
that
can
happen?
We're
gonna
try.
Maybe
we
fail,
but
us
not
training.
We
have
already
failed.
So
let's
go
do
it
and
hopefully
you
will
succeed,
because
we
have
that
confidence
of
Silicon
Valley
built
with
that
and
the
team.
So
that's
what
we
did
and
we
couldn't
have
done
that,
but
for
leadership,
leadership
willing
to
take
a
chance.
E
If
you
know
innovation,
culture
is
not
just
in
a
pocket
as
a
state
as
Silicon
Valley
as
employees
as
every
human
being.
Here
in
the
state,
we
breed
that
can-do
attitude,
I,
don't
care
how
difficult
this
problem
is.
We
will
solve
it
and
when
we
look
back,
it's
only
going
to
happen
because
we
have
the
scandal
attitude
and
they
can
do
attitude
defeated
the
virus.
Thank
you.
C
So
what
you
see
behind
me
by
the
way
the
yellow
cases
are
the
ones
that
came
from
the
national
stockpile
into
LA
County
LA
County
has
a
separate
track
of
relationships
with
that
national
stockpile.
The
state
of
California
has
not
yet
received
just
for
clarification,
any
direct
support
of
ventilators.
We
have
our
ask
in
and
we're
not
waiting
to
see
that
fulfilled
we're
trying
to
repurpose
what
we
have
and
try
to
find
on
the
private
market
around
the
rest
of
the
world,
those
that
we
can
source
from
again.
C
That's
the
spirit
that
defines
this
moment
here
in
our
state.
10,000
is
our
goal
over
forty
two
hundred
and
fifty
two
have
been
identified.
Thousands
more.
We
are
confident
we'll
be
on
their
way
very
very
shortly.
In
no
time
better
than
now,
this
state
has
surged
its
capacity
in
terms
of
hospital
beds,
but
it
also
has
created
slack
in
the
system
and
I'll
repeat
that
it's
a
surge
strategy
and
a
slack
strategy
by
eliminating
the
overwhelming
majority
of
elected
surgeries
and
by
looking
at
repurposing
our
existing
infrastructure
within
our
four
hundred.
C
Sixteen
hospitals
we've
been
able
to
reduce
the
census
in
terms
of
utilization
in
our
beds,
preparing
to
meet
this
moment
as
we're
starting
to
see
this
moment
is
now
taking
shape.
Over
100
deaths
are
now
in
the
state
of
California
hundred
and
one
as
of
last
night,
new
numbers
coming
in
just
in
the
last
few
hours,
or
so
those
numbers
increasing.
C
We
are
seeing
those
increases
in
hospitalizations,
as
I
said,
thirty,
eight
point
six
percent
more
last
night,
and
that
does
not
include
the
three
thousand
nine
hundred
and
ninety
three
individuals
that
are
persons
of
interest
so
just
drive.
Four
thousand
people
are
in
our
hospital
system,
as
people
that
are
under
investigation
that
are
waiting
for
their
test
results
to
come
back
to
determine
if
they're,
Kovan
nineteen
positive.
The
vast
majority
of
we
are
confident
based
upon
the
number
of
PU
eyes.
C
We've
seen
over
the
course
of
last
week
will
not
be
tested
positive,
but
it
gives
you
a
sense
of
the
enormity
of
the
challenge
that
we
have
in
front
of
us.
That
is
manifesting
in
real
time.
The
testing
in
California
is
improving.
Just
shy
of
90,000
tests
have
been
completed
in
the
state
and
we
are
seeing
this
testing
regimes
in
real
time
take
shape.
There's
one
of
the
more
exciting
testing
opportunities,
a
company.
Quite
when
I,
say
literally
I,
mean
literally
sharing
the
parking
lot
with
us
right
here
in
Sunnyvale.
C
That
is
one
that's
getting
a
lot
of
national
attention,
we're
working
with
them.
These
are
the
opportunities
move
beyond
the
PCR
test,
start
working
on
these
blood
based
tests
and
looking
at
working
with
the
labs
throughout
the
state
of
California
to
procure
different
protocols
and
processes
to
get
antibodies
and
be
able
to
trace
the
win
and
how
we're
seeing
this
virus
spread
with
more
specificity.
That
will
also
be
part
of
the
protocols
of
getting
people
back
to
work
in
a
very
specific
in
strategic
way.
C
E
C
We're
bringing
all
514
from
the
California
Department
of
Public
Health
cash.
We
are
also.
We
brought
up
150
of
the
170
ventilators
from
the
strategic
national
stockpile
from
LA
County
those
arrived
at
a.m.
this
morning.
Kr
was
able
to
deliver
e.
Show
me
the
video
last
night
of
the
80
ventilators
that
he
refurbished
he
did
24.
C
In
the
first
day
he
did
80
yesterday
he
pledges
120
to
be
precise,
being
completed
today,
so
you
could
see
almost
a
flywheel
in
terms
of
his
operation
beginning
to
scale,
and
we
want
to
be
selfish
here
by
any
stretch
of
the
imagination.
The
kr
is
one
of
your
entrepreneurs
that
can
meet
this
moment
for
other
states
that
meet
to
get
there
their
ventilators
refurbished
as
well.
Again.
This
is
part
of
the
conversation.
C
It's
one
thing
to
have
one
of
these
yellow
kits
it's
another
to
open
them
and
actually
plug
them
in
to
see
that
they
work
and
these
batteries
haven't
been
tested,
and
sometimes
some
of
the
batteries
need
to
be
thrown
out
and
some
of
the
components
no
longer
are
working.
And
so
that's
part
of
the
system
and
protocol
that
should
be
taking
place
and
I'm
sure
is
in
other
parts
of
our
country.
E
So,
as
we
said
today,
we
will
get
120
ventilators
out
a
day
and
should
more
calm
forget
how
long
it
takes.
If
we
have
to
turn
around
200
to
250
from
this
location,
we
will
fill
this
warehouse.
We
will
just
move
our
things
away.
We
will
make
it
happen.
Our
engineers,
our
volunteers,
will
be
ready
to
scale
this
up.
E
I
want
to
assure
you-
and
there
are
other
company
CEOs
in
the
in
the
valley
that
have
reached
out
to
me
and
said
if
you
need
a
hand
either
with
logistics
or
with
people,
we're
happy
to
provide
them
to
you.
So
what
I
want
to
be
able
to
say
is
as
long
as
we
have
the
parts
as
long
as
the
units
are
coming
in,
we
will
assure
everybody
that
we
are
not
going
to
be
the
bottleneck,
bring
them
in
everyone.
That's
you
know
that
needs
to
get
refurbished.
Everyone
that
needs
to
get
checked
out.
E
We
will
go
figure
out
how
to
make
it
happen
so
and
also
we
have
a
facility
in
Delaware
that
is
exactly
being
replicated
the
way
we
have
it
out
here.
So
if
there
are
ventilators
in
the
East
Coast,
it's
much
easier
logistically
to
get
them
out
there
and
get
it
right
out
back
to
those
states,
so
we're
very
happy
to
do
either.
One.
C
To
the
extent
we
have,
the
cash
then
begins
the
process
and
I
say
cash
spelled
to
different
ways:
the
resources
and
the
actual
assets
and
the
dollars
to
procure
more
and
the
actual
physical
assets
to
distribute
these
ventilators
as
needed
in
real
time.
We're
also
pre
positioning
we're
getting
more
strategic
in
terms
of
our
geographic
California
as
a
nation
state,
and
so
geographically,
we
want
to
get
these
into
locations
that
aren't
all
in
our
main
facilities,
but
out
into
these
facilities
that
are
regionalised
throughout
the
state.
So
the
turnaround
is
hours
not
overnight.
F
C
Look,
we
put
our
budget
guidelines
that
were
sobering,
but
very
specific,
basically
looking
at
baseline
budget
and
looking
at
all
of
the
proposals
in
the
January
budget
anew
based
upon
two
things:
number
one:
changing
economic
conditions
and
number
of
related
issues
related
to
the
number
of
unemployment
claims
and
monitoring
our
own
domestic
economy,
but
also
on
the
basis
of
support
coming
from
the
federal
government.
Fifteen
point
three
billion
just
in
the
Block
Grants
to
the
state
that
will
flow
through
not
just
the
state
itself
in
its
general
fund,
but
also
at
the
local
level.
C
Six
point:
nine
billion
of
that
to
local
governmental
entities
that
is
to
address
kovat,
19
related
expenses,
you're,
seeing
that,
additionally,
with
transportation
support
three
point:
seven
five
billion
dollars
higher
education
homeless
support
all
of
that
being
considered
in
terms
of
the
potential.
What
we
call
California
may
revise.
So
that's
a
work
in
real
time
again:
California
better
positioned
candidly
than
most
states,
because
we
were
running
billions
and
billions
of
dollars
in
operating,
surplus
and
record
number
of
dollars
that
we
had
set
aside
in
three
reserve
accounts,
and
that
was
reflected
in
our
bond
ratings.
C
That's
an
open-ended
question
and
I
can't
answer,
but
I
haven't
been
tested,
I
have
had
no
symptoms
and
we
are
very
formal.
We
came
into
this
facility,
everybody
and
their
temperature
checked.
Everybody
was
asked
a
series
of
questions.
I've
been
working
out
of
the
state,
Operations
Center.
Everybody
goes
through
that
process
and
protocol
every
single
day,
so
we're
all
taking
it
very
seriously,
appropriately
trying
to
distance
ourselves
physically
distance
ourselves.
C
So
we
preach
well
rather
practice
what
we're
preaching,
but
this
virus
is
dynamic
and
in
that
respect
one
needs
to
be
prepared
and
one
needs
to
operate
under
the
assumption
that
they
have
it
and
they
can
spread
it
and
that's
the
responsibility,
personal
responsibility.
All
of
us
have
from
the
Governor
on
down
and
or
the
governor
on
up
as
it
should
be,
as
leadership
pyramid
has
now
been
inverted
because
leadership
can
be
found
everywhere.
C
F
C
It's
working
as
long
as
we
continue
the
good
work,
the
vast
majority,
tens
of
millions
of
Californians
have
done
the
right
thing.
It's
just
remarkable
just
driving
down
here
today
to
see
these
freeways,
unclogged
empties
see
people
practicing
physical,
distancing,
it's
it's
it's
inspiring.
My
biggest
fear
is
the
fear
that
everybody
has
that
people
get
exhausted
by
this,
and
they
look
for
any
sign
of
hope.
C
That
says:
oh
good
now,
I
don't
have
to
continue
to
do
this
or
they
believe
on
the
basis
of
what's
not
happening,
someplace
else
that
those
conditions
somehow
will
apply
to
their
conditions
where
they
are
I
cannot
impress
upon
people
more.
We
must
continue
our
stay
at
home
policy
throughout
the
state
of
California.
We
must
continue
to
lead
in
this
respect.
Let
us
not
pull
back.
I
said
this
two
days
ago:
I'll
repeat
it
today:
let's
not
run
the
90-yard.
C
If
we
hold
the
line,
if
we
continue
to
do
good
work,
let's
avoid
big
lines
this
weekend
at
our
beaches
or
on
trails.
Let
us
practice
this
physical
distancing,
let's
get
through
the
next
few
weeks.
Let's
see
where
this
curve
is.
Let's
see
if
we
are
managing
that
curve
and
then
we'll
have
some
more
clarity,
how
we
can
get
back
to
normalcy,
but
I
promise
people
this.
C
We
will
not
get
back
to
normalcy
as
soon
as
we
would
like
if
we
don't
continue
to
practice
physical
distancing
and
continue
to
advance
at
scale
throughout
the
state
of
California
in
every
part
of
the
state.
The
kind
of
stay
at
home
policy
that
California
very
proudly
advanced
as
the
nation's
first
state.
F
C
I
made
a
number
of
commutations
I've
done
this
on
a
number
of
occasions
previously,
and
they
say
the
same
thing.
My
heart
goes
out
to
the
victims.
These
are
challenging,
challenging
issues
and
it
deeply
deeply
impacts
the
decision
making
the
impact
a
commutation
has
on
those
victims
and
their
families.
So
in
every
instance,
in
every
case,
those
things
are
reviewed.
We
go
through
a
very
detailed
process
and
we
did
so
with
the
commutation
so
I
put
out
yesterday.
F
C
Could
if
we
stopped
practicing
physical
distancing,
we
could,
if
we
pull
back
from
our
stay
at
home
policy,
we
could,
if
we
go
back
to
our
normal
routines
without
bending
the
curve
I
mentioned
the
surge
last
night,
a
number
of
ICU
beds.
Let
me
be
specific,
it
was
105
percent
increase
overnight
and
the
number
of
people
and
I
see
use
went
from
200
yesterday
to
410.
Today
we
are
blessed-
and
this
is
perverse
thing
to
say.
C
Forgive
me-
we're
blessed
that
we're
just
at
410
devastating
for
the
individuals
there
and
their
family
members
and
loved
ones,
but
by
comparison
and
contrast
to
other
parts
of
this
country.
That
number
seems
relatively
modest,
but
the
percentage
increase
was
not
and,
as
I
said,
when
I
wake
up.
First
two
things:
I
look
at
ICU
and
hospitalization
rates.
The
hospitalization
rates
also
went
up
last
night
from
746
yesterday
to
1034
today.
That
represents
a
thirty
eight
point.
Six
percent
increase.
C
C
The
USNS
mercy
is
now
in
the
state
of
California
these
vehicle
medical
stations,
including
one
here
in
Santa
Clara
at
the
convention
facility,
because
the
mayor's
leadership
is
up
and
running
2,000
beds
in
those
eight
vehicle
medical
stations
have
procured
because
of
the
support
of
the
president
United
States,
which
were
grateful
for
including
the
mercy
itself.
We
have
now
new
hospitals.
Online
Seton
is
operational
in
the
Bay
Area
that
has
the
capacity
up
to
220
beds.
St.
Vincent
down
in
LA
has
the
capacity
when
we
staff
it
very
shortly,
we'll
stop
it.
C
We've
secured
it
366
beds,
community
hospital
down
in
Long
Beach
has
a
capacity
of
158
beds
were
working
with
cpmc
here
in
the
Bay
Area
for
a
hundred
and
fifty-seven
beds,
you
start
stacking
those
numbers
up,
that's
part
of
our
surge
plan,
in
addition
to
hotels,
in
addition
to
skilled
nursing
facilities,
in
addition
to
Porterville
and
Fairview
and
others,
we
have
thousands
and
thousands
of
beds
that
we've
already
locked
up
that
are
preparing,
are
being
prepared
to
meet
this
moment.
If
these
numbers
continue
to
increase

From
Cal
matters
earlier
this
week,
seven
Bay
Area
jurisdictions
announced
new
requirements
that
labs
testing
for
the
novel
coronavirus
must
send
negative
and
inconclusive
results.
In
addition
to
positive
results
to
state
and
local
health
officials,
why
wasn't
the
state
the
one
to
set
that
requirement
from
the
get-go?
Has
the
state
updated
its
reporting
requirements
since
then
to
match
those
of
the
seven
Bay
Area.
C
We've
been
asking
all
the
hospitals
to
do
this
in
some
time
the
labs
to
do
this
universities
to
do
this
for
some
time
so
that
was
well
established.
The
state
was
been
leaning
in
in
this
space
for
now
weeks
and
weeks.
Trying
to
get
all
of
that
data.
What's
happened.
It's
a
wonderful
thing
is
every
time
I
go
to
another
city
meet
with
another
mayor,
they're
talking
about
new
pilot
project,
a
new
testing
modality,
and
some
people
have
a
more
of
a
focus
on
getting
those
up
and
running
than
they
do
on
the
reporting
side.
C
So
we've
been
able
to
stack
the
reporting
in
a
way
we're
now
getting
all,
or
at
least
the
vast
majority
of
what's
happening
on
the
ground
reporting
in
real
time,
not
just
the
positives,
which
is
the
old
CDC
protocols,
but
now
the
negatives-
and
we
certainly
didn't
wait
for
that.
Formal
announcement
we've
been
requesting
that
for
weeks
now
across
the
state.
F
The
recorder
asks:
can
you
explain
why
you
signed
the
executive
order
Friday
night
effectively,
giving
the
Chief
Justice
significant
powers
to
change
court
rules
around
the
state?
Do
you
have
any
concerns
about
judicial
council
proposals
to
delay
the
deadlines
for
reigning
defendants
and
preliminary
hearing.
C
This
will
allow
them
the
ability
in
real
time
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
criminal
and
civil
justice
systems,
and
so
I
did
this
out
of
respect
the
institution
and
a
respect
to
the
Chief
Justice
and
her
counsel
and
the
judicial
councils
capacity
to
deliver
it
to
create
those
points
of
access
to
our
system.
At
this
very
difficult
time.
C
Well,
I'm
very
proud,
then
I
signed
an
executive
order
yesterday
and
supporting
for
people
to
know
there'll,
be
no
legal
proceedings.
There'll
be
no
capacity
to
enforce
any
evictions
that
number
that
that
protocol
goes
through
May,
31st
and
I'm
very
proud
to
have
done
that
statewide.
We
also
moved
over
a
week
ago
to
clarify
the
legal
authority
of
local
governments
to
go
even
further.
30
jurisdictions
already
have
including
San
Jose
their
mayor
led
in
this
respect.
C
F
C
We're
always
looking
at
working
not
only
with
the
FDA
as
it
relates
to
PPE,
but
also
looking
at
other
expired
equipment.
We
had
a
conversation
just
a
moment
ago.
Specifically,
it
expired
equipment
as
it
relates
to
all
ventilators
and
the
like,
and
how
we
can
adjust
the
protocols
and
policies
and
not
just
focus
on
the
rehabilitation
but
the
utilization
of
some
of
those
other
assets.
Let
me
be
specific,
though,
to
the
question
specific
to
the
issue
of
PPE.
We
had
21
million
and
95
masks
in
our
cache
that
most
had
expired.
C
We
worked
with
the
FDA
to
get
approval
because
of
the
cold
storage
and
the
fact
that
the
equipment,
the
masks,
were
in
very
good
order
to
be
able
to
distribute
those
masks.
Let
me
give
you
a
new
number.
We
have
distributed
to
date,
30
1.7
million
and
95
masks
in
the
state
of
California
30,
1.7
million
and
95
masks.
I
have
not
a
purchase
order.
We
have
now
secured
and
locked
in
and
are
about
to
be
delivered.
C
101
million
101
million
n95
masks
that
we've
been
able
to
source
throughout
the
globe
gives
you
a
magnitude
of
what
we
need
and
what
we're.
Looking
for.
Let
me
extend
precision
in
terms
of
understanding.
We
had
additional
1.4
million
glove
sets
that
we've
distributed
from
the
state.
I
now
have
additional
security
that
we
are
going
to
receive
very
shortly.
An
additional
a
one
and
a
half
million
glove
sets,
so
I
can
go
to
coveralls.
C
I
can
go
to
gowns,
I
can
go
to
shields,
but
I
don't
want
to
belabor
the
question
or
my
response
to
it
or
confuse
anybody
except
to
say
we're
dealing
in
the
multi
millions,
hundreds
of
millions
of
PPE
and
we'll
continue
to
work
with
our
federal
partners
to
find
more
from
the
national
stockpile.
But
beyond
that,
we
don't
get
much
more
and
we're
expected
to
get
more.
We
will
look
to
those
expirations
will
look
to
repurpose
look
to
securing
logistics
around
the
world
to
get
what
we
need
by
the
way.
C
I
just
want
to
again
remind
people
my
gratitude
to
Richard
Branson
in
virgin.
They
have
a
plane
that
will
be
flying
out
here
into
the
Bay
Area
Oakland.
It's
just
another
proof
point
747
with
test
kits
with
all
kinds
of
other
PPE.
It's
just
another
example
of
these
partnerships
that
are
forming
that
are
very,
very
well
we're
very,
very
humbled
and
grateful
by
them.
F
Kpcc
asks
that
says:
they've
gotten
a
lot
of
questions
from
la
residents
concerned
that
their
employer
is
still
making
them
work,
even
though
they
should
be
closed
under
state
orders
or
that
they
are
over
65
and
work
in
an
essential
service
like
a
grocery
store
and
still
have
to
work
or
that
their
employer
isn't
taking
proper
health
and
safety
precautions.
Where
can
they
report
these
problems?.
C
Apartment
a
labor,
but
you
know
just
reach
out
to
one
great
site
for
overall
information,
covin
19,
ca.gov,
kovin,
19
ca.gov
lays
out
the
protocols.
Procedures
is
what's
essential,
what's
not
essential,
but
that's
our
labor
folks,
Julie
sue.
There's
the
name.
The
director
of
the
agency.
Her
responsibility
is
to
enforce,
from
a
state
perspective
those
rules
and
regulations.
But
what
let
me
counsel
as
a
former
County
Supervisor,
the
overlay
exists
as
well
at
the
county
level
and
their
office
of
Labor
Standards
enforcement
that
are.
F
C
Results
I
I
mentioned
in
terms
of
the
previous
efforts
to
do
what
we
refer
to
as
community
surveillance,
and
one
should
know
those
pilots
are
taking
shape
all
across
the
state.
Some
of
our
institutions
of
higher
learning
our
universities,
our
medical
facilities,
are
doing
community
surveillance
on
a
smaller
level.
We
intend
to
do
it
on
a
massive
level
and
we
are
working
with
many
companies,
including
the
one,
that's
a
stone's
throw
away
from
where
I'm
speaking
today
to
improve
our
capacity
to
deliver
on
that.
C
That
capacity
is
limited
and
I'll
repeat
this
for
the
20
or
30
of
time.
It
is
limited,
on
our
basis
of
our
capacity
to
get
the
RNA
extraction
kits,
to
get
the
reagents
to
fulfill
the
demands
for
testing
and
to
get
the
specimen
capacity,
which
means
new
swabs
and
the
new
media
to
transport
the
swabs.
We
are
working,
interestingly,
another
company
here
in
the
valley
to
do
3d
printing
of
swabs
in
order
to
meet
the
moment.
