Hi
everybody
we're
gonna
commence
the
meeting.
I
know
this
earlier
start
time
may
have
thrown
folks
off,
but
why
don't
we
get
underway
and
I
think
our
colleagues
will
find
their
way
to
the
chambers
soon
enough.
You
know
there's
been
some
change
in
schedule
and
that
may
have
caused
a
little
bit
of
confusion,
but
I
know
we've
got
folks
reaching
out
to
the
council
offices
to
make
sure
everybody
makes
it
here
to
join
us.
C
D
D
We
give
you
our
agendas
and
our
plans
for
you
to
lead
us
to
make
decisions
this
day
that
will
be
best
for
all
people
and
god.
I
pray
at
the
end
of
this
day
for
each
person
in
this
place,
as
we
leave
this
time
that
every
single
one
will
have
a
sense
of
accomplishment,
a
feeling
that
they
have
contributed
to
the
greater
good
and
a
stronger
sense
of
hope
for
this
great
city,
unity,
harmony
and
productivity
takes
a
miracle,
but
you
are
the
god
of
miracles,
and
that
is
why
we
call
on
you.
D
C
Thank
you,
pastor.
Wong,
thank
you
for
your
words,
all
right.
We're
on
to
ceremonial
items,
we'll
begin
council
member
foley
has
invited
various
members
of
the
team
at
the
family
court,
including
two
of
our
distinguished
judges,
we're
happy
to
have
them
we're
going
to
recognize
and
proclaim
family
court
awareness
month.
E
E
Today
we
welcome
the
honorable
judge,
charles
adams
judge
bleicher,
and
we
have
two
representatives
from
the
bar
association
who
represent
the
family
law,
division,
aleister,
shaw
and
patricia
zerbini
with
that.
I'd
like
to
turn
over
the
microphone
to
judge
adams
and
ask
the
mayor
to
present
the
proclamation.
F
Well,
thank
you.
I
did
want
to
first
start
by
thanking
the
mayor
thanking
councilmember
foley,
the
other
members
of
the
council
for
recognizing
family
court.
Today,
as
commissioner
or
as
council
member
foley
said,
family
court
is
a
difficult
place
to
work
and
we
have
to
make
some
decisions
that
aren't
pleasing
to
everyone,
but
we
always
try
and
do
that,
keeping
in
mind
that
we
want
to
keep
everyone
safe,
particularly
children,
and,
on
behalf
of
the
court.
C
C
G
This
is
the
second
year
that
I've
had
the
privilege
to
introduce
this
proclamation
and
behind
me
is
standing
some
really
strong
women
who
do
work
throughout
the
whole
year.
On
our
behalf,
the
city
of
san
jose
has
participated
in
the
past
with
the
united
nations
to
end
violence
against
women
campaign.
This
was
from
november
25th
and
it
runs
on
december
10th,
like
I
said
it's
human
rights
day
on
december
10th
and
it's
an
initiative
of
16
days
of
activism
against
gender-based
violence
and
concludes
on
the
day
that
commemorates
human
rights
day.
G
But
we
should
make
sure
that
we
fight
for
women's
rights
every
day.
Violence
against
women
and
girls
is
one
of
the
most
widespread,
persistent
and
devastating
human
rights
violation
in
the
world.
Today,
one
in
three
women
and
girls
worldwide
have
experienced
physical
sexual
violence
in
their
lifetime,
and
it's
very
similar
in
the
us.
It's
one
of
four
young
girls
and
women
experienced
that
before
the
age
of
18.
G
Many
of
you
are
familiar
with
the
school-to-prison
pipeline
that
impacts
young
men
of
color.
There
is
another
pipeline
that
is
not
really
spoken
about
in.
This
is
a
pipeline
that
impacts
girls
and
young
women.
I
encourage
you
all
to
read
the
report
on
sexual
abuse
prison
pipeline.
The
girl
story
to
learn
more
one
of
the
top
reasons
why
young
women
interact
with
the
juvenile
justice
system
is
because
of
past
sexual
trauma
and
through
our
joint
special
meetings
with
the
county
based
on
gender-based
violence
and
child
sexual
abuse.
G
We
are
coordinating
and
improving
our
systems
to
better
support
survivors
of
these
crimes.
Our
work
to
prevent
and
eliminate
violence
can't
be
done
alone.
As
I
said,
we
are
fortunate
to
have
partners
in
our
community
like
the
zonta
e
club
of
silicon
valley,
and
they
are
committed
to
eliminating
violence
by
mentoring
and
empowering
young
women
in
their
community.
G
H
H
The
united
nations
16
days
of
activism
against
gender-based
violence
is
an
annual
international
campaign
that
kicks
off
on
november
25th
the
international
day
for
the
elimination
of
violence
against
women
and
runs
through
december
10th
human
rights
day.
The
global
thing
for
this
year
is
16
days
of
activism.
Against
gender-based
violence
is
orange,
the
world
and
violence
against
women.
Now
it
was
started
by
activists
at
the
inaugural
women's
global
leadership
institute
in
1991
and
continues
to
be
coordinated
each
year
by
the
center
for
women's
global
leadership.
H
It
is
used
as
an
organizing
strategy
by
individuals
and
organizations
around
the
world
to
call
for
the
prevention
and
elimination
of
violence
against
women
in
support
of
this
civil
society.
Civil
society
initiative,
the
united
nations
secretary's
general
united
by
2030
and
violence
against
women
campaign
unite
campaign,
calls
for
global
action
to
increase
awareness,
galvanize
advocacy
efforts,
ensure
knowledge
and
innovation.
C
December
1st
is
world
aids
day
and
I
know
councilman
prowls
is
on
remotely
and
council
member
foley
is
here
in
person,
so
we'll
be
presenting
proclamation
to
recognize
this
day.
We're
grappling
certainly
with
a
different
pandemic.
We
must
not
forget
this
very
important
struggle
for
millions
of
us
still
councilmember
foley.
I
I
My
office,
along
with
councilmember
foley's,
is
lighting
up
the
city
hall
tower
and
rotunda
in
red,
and
I
invite
everybody
to
check
out
the
lighting
starting
this
evening
after
the
sun
goes
down
and
thank
you
to
councilmember
foley
for
being
able
to
present
that
accommodation
in
in
or
the
proclamation
excuse
me
in
person
and
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you.
Council,
member
foley.
I
E
First
I'd
like
to
thank
the
silicon
valley,
world
aids
day
planning
committee,
who
are
here
and
present,
and
I
hope
everyone
will
join
me
join
me
in
attending
the
event
tomorrow,
which
is
a
candlelight
vigil
vigil
planned
for
tomorrow
for
six
o'clock
at
city
hall,
plaza
world
aids
day
is
particularly
important
to
me.
My
brother
tim
died
25
years
ago.
Age
was
recognized
as
a
severe
pandemic
about
40
years
ago,
and
the
play
rent
was
written
25
years
ago,
and
if
you're
familiar
with
that,
that
has
a
very
strong
aids
theme
throughout
it.
E
I
cannot
watch
it
or
think
of
my
brother,
tim
or
think
of
world
aids
day
without
getting
overly
emotional.
So
I
hope
I
don't
get
over
overly
emotional
tim
passed
away
from
aids
during
the
early
days
of
that
pandemic,
and
I
know
my
council
colleagues,
I've
told
them
this
story
before,
but
it's
really
important
on
world
aids
day
that
it
bears
repeating,
because
it
is
about
those
people
who
have
passed
before
us
who
passed
from
that
pandemic,
who
were
not
able
to
benefit
from
the
drugs
that
helped
extend
lives
for
many
to
follow.
E
It
was
a
different
pandemic.
Then
this
is
back
when
we
didn't
know
much
about
that
devastating
illness,
much
less
how
to
fight
it.
Those
who
contracted
aids
were
treated
like
outcasts.
There
was
fear
of
the
unknown
fear
as
to
how
it
was
contracted
and
fear
over
the
ultimate
death
sentence,
but
that
is
no
longer.
E
E
My
heart
broke
with
his
passing,
but
my
heartbreak
turned
to
passion
to
advocate
for
the
lgbtq
plus
community
to
memorialize
my
brother.
My
daughter
carries
his
name
as
her
middle
name.
I
still
hold
tim
very
close
to
my
heart.
I
have
a
picture
in
my
office
that
I
look
out
daily
and
he's
got
a
bottle
of
champagne
in
his
hand,
which
is
so
tim,
he
liked
to
live.
E
E
Let's
remember
the
millions
we
have
lost
due
to
hiv
aids
to
the
many
millions
living
today
with
hiv
aids
and
be
thankful
too,
for
the
progress
we
have
made
in
fighting
back
against
this
horrific
virus
that
causes
aids
as
we
recognize
world
aids
day.
Let
us
remember
that
to
end
the
hiv
epidemic
we
need
equitable
access
and
everyone's
voices.
E
J
A
J
J
J
I'm
also
a
member
of
the
santa
clara
county,
hiv
commission,
world
aids
day
is
a
time
to
mourn
those
who
have
died
from
aids
and
a
couple
of
years
ago
I
attended
a
world
aids
day.
It
was
after
the:
u
equals?
U
undetectable
equals
untransmissible,
in
other
words,
people
who
take
their
medications
or
are
no
longer
infectious,
at
least
by
sex,
and
that
was
just
blew
me
away
and
I
spent
a
month
crying.
J
J
You
know,
and
I
went
off
of
social
security
disability
to
regular
social
security,
so
I
guess
I'm
no
longer
disabled.
It
was
pretty
cool.
I
never
expected
to
make
it
that
long,
but
it
is
world
aids
day
is
a
time
to
celebrate
all
of
the
advances
that
we've
made
and
believe
me
folks,
it's
dependent
on
pills.
J
J
C
C
C
K
Yes,
good
morning,
paul
soto
from
the
horseshoe
this
the
the
consent
calendar
over
the
past,
I
would
say-
probably
two
months:
it's
it's
just
it's
stacked
with
issues
that
in
like
maybe
last
year,
you
would
see
on
on
the
regular
agenda
items
it
wouldn't
be
on
consent,
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
there's
a
lot
of
money
involved.
There's
you
know
there's
a
few,
maybe
I
don't
know
about
15
million
dollars
and
there's
also
zoning
laws.
K
You
know
and-
and
I
don't
I
don't
know
if
this
is
like-
you
know
it's
just
it's
just
like
a
like
a
charade
like
you
act
like
it's
not
happening,
and
then
everybody
else
acts
like
it's
not
happening,
but
that's
exactly
what's
going
on
with
that
consent
column.
Is
that
there's
no
there's
no
kind
of
challenge,
there's
no
kinds
of
there's
no
means
by
which
we
can
have
explained
how
you
rationalized,
placing
these
items
on
a
consent.
Calendar
versus
you
know
a
regular,
a
regular
agenda
item
and
so.
K
K
C
A
C
C
A
G
L
There
we
go.
Thank
you
good
morning,
mayor
and
council,
lee
wilcox
assistant
city
manager
and
joining
me
for
the
presentation.
Today
is
dolan
beckel
interim
deputy
city
manager
and
our
operations,
section
chief
in
the
eoc
alvin
galang
assistant
to
the
city
manager
and
our
vaccination
task
force
director
and
sarah
zarate,
our
office
of
administration
policy
and
intergovernmental
relations.
L
Yeah,
so
with
previous
reports,
we're
going
to
focus
on
four
subjects
today
and
really
try
and
focus
the
conversation
around.
What's
changed,
what's
driving
that
change
and
anything
that's
new
or
that
we'll
be
working
on
in
the
months
to
come,
we're
going
to
start
with
some
highlights,
and
recent
trends
related
to
coven,
19,
globally
and
locally
updates
around
the
vaccination
task
force.
Sarah
will
update
on
some
advocacy
efforts
that
we're
taking
on
now,
as
well
as
kind
of
integrating
some
of
our
response
and
recovery
efforts,
which
we
briefly
touched
upon
last
time.
L
I
did
want
to
start.
However,
we
had
gotten
away
from
this
in
previous
3.1,
but
highlighting
some
of
the
good
work,
and
while
we
reported
out
to
you
last
time
that
our
city
was
95
vaccinated
or
those
12
and
over
at
least
had
one
dose
95
percent
in
these
reports
and
in
our
actions
in
the
eoc,
we're
obvi
we're
taking
more
of
our
time,
focusing
on
the
other
five
percent
and
rightfully
so.
That
is
our
way
out
of
the
pandemic
and
protecting
our
residents.
L
L
L
M
So
it
was
about
three
weeks
ago
that
the
global
situation
with
covet
19
began
to
change
these
key
changes
included.
One
austria,
where
66
percent
of
the
total
population
is
fully
vaccinated,
is
implementing
lockdown
procedures.
Germany,
where
67
percent
of
the
total
population
is
fully
vaccinated
and
denmark
were
76
of
the
total
population,
is
fully
vaccinated.
M
M
Travel
restrictions
are
being
implemented
and
as
early
as
an
hour
ago,
the
source
location
of
the
omicron
variant
is
now
in
question.
So
I
would
recommend
anyone
traveling
internationally,
be
sure
to
go
to
the
center
for
disease
control
travel
website,
because
that
will
probably
be
changing
on
a
daily
basis.
I
would
also,
of
course,
check
our
county
for
any
local
guidelines
as
well,
the
world
health
organization
or
who
is
classifying
omicron
as
a
variant
of
concern,
while
here
in
the
united
states,
the
cdc
has
not
yet
classified
this
variant.
M
However,
as
president
biden
said
yesterday,
sorry
flipped,
the
page
too
soon.
However,
as
pride
and
biden
said
yesterday,
the
united
states,
lockdown
and
shelter-in-place
policies
are
not
expected
in
the
united
states,
where
59
percent
of
the
total
population
is
fully
vaccinated.
The
federal
government
is
pursuing
a
national
covenanting
response
policy,
which
had
some
setbacks
last
week,
and
sarah
zarate
will
also
be
talking
about
that.
So
the
bottom
line
is
the
covet
19
delta
variant
surge
continues
globally,
while
a
new
and
potentially
impactful
variant
like
omicron,
can
emerge.
M
Currently
in
the
united
states,
the
delta
variant
remains
the
only
variant
of
concern
or
high
consequence
as
classified
by
the
cdc.
The
cdc
is
currently
evaluating
the
omicron
variant
and
it
will
be
added
if
the
cdc
determines
it
is
appropriate.
It
is
expected
that
eventually,
the
variant
will
be
detected
here
in
the
united
states.
Currently
as
last
time,
there
are
no
variants
of
interest
and
there
are
10
variants
that
are
being
monitored,
none
of
which
pose
significant
public
health
risk.
M
M
We
did
see
a
25
increase
in
cases
since
our
last
report
on
october
26,
and
we
continue
to
monitor
the
case
rate
and
the
deaths
and
will
include
any
omicron
variant
impacts
that
have
not
yet
been
observed
here.
Locally,
hospitalizations
and
icu
bed
are
currently
stable
compared
to
last
report,
but
again
they're
only
28
of
what
we
had
available
at
the
beginning
of
the
pandemic.
This
situation
has
not
changed
much
since
our
last
update
the
city
of
san
jose's,
full
vaccination
rate
for
ages,
12
and
above
is
89.5
percent.
M
M
The
vaccination
rates
continue
to
head
in
the
right
direction
and,
of
course,
we
have
to
focus
continue
to
focus
on
that
five
percent
and
those
census
tracts
where
we
have
low
vaccination
rates,
and
that
will
continue
to
be
the
focus
of
our
vaccination
team.
That
alvin
will
be
talking
about
shortly
in
terms
of
the
criteria
to
lift
indoor
health
orders
on
masking.
While
the
county
has
made
good
progress
on
certain
areas,
we
still
have
much
more
work
ahead
of
us
with
three
of
the
four
criteria
not
being
met.
M
As
lee
said,
lee
wilcox
said
earlier,
it
takes
a
team
and
all
the
residents,
healthcare
workers,
healthcare
partners
and
city
employees
should
be
very
proud
of
the
fact
that
the
city
of
san
jose
remains
the
most
vaccinated
city
within
the
top
10
largest
united
states
cities.
There
are
some
question
about
this
from
a
certain
council
member
last
time
we
met,
so
I
refreshed
the
data
and
we
remain
at
412
and
above
the
highest
vaccinated
of
the
top
10
cities
at
95.3
percent.
M
N
Thank
you
dolan
good
morning,
honorable
mayor
city,
council
and
members
of
the
public.
My
name
is
alvin
golang
and
I'm
the
director
of
the
city
of
san
jose's
vaccination
task
force.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
present
an
update
on
the
task
force's
role
in
ensuring
that
the
residents
of
san
jose
are
kept
as
safe
and
healthy
as
possible,
as
well
as
an
update
on
pediatric
vaccinations
among
our
5
to
11
year
olds
and
new
eligibility
criteria
for
booster
shots.
N
As
seen
earlier,
the
city
of
san
jose
has
a
89.5
completed
vaccination
rate
for
ages,
12
and,
above
again,
as
a
reminder,
we
will
be
presenting
the
data
moving
forward
as
available
that
focuses
on
completed
vaccinations
to
align
with
the
criteria
to
lift
the
indoor
masking
mandate
at
several
of
the
vaccination
clinics
that
the
city
has
coordinated
directly
with
the
county
public
health
department.
We
have
seen
triple
digit
attendance,
for
instance,
at
m
approach
farm
in
park.
N
N
N
Folks
are
going
to
want
to
gather
more
indoors
and
gather
more
with
family
and
friends
to
feel
that
greater
sense
of
normalcy,
so
with
that
they're
looking
to
protect
themselves,
their
family
and
their
friends
by
getting
a
vaccination
what's
new
county
public
health
and
the
office
of
education
has
designated
the
city's
role
to
focus
primarily
on
communications
and
outreach
to
our
most
vulnerable
populations,
particularly
among
the
newly
eligible
5
to
11
year
olds.
The
city
will
focus
on
connecting
with
and
informing
those
that
have
agency
over
children.
N
We
are
extending
a
pause
on
our
wireless
emergency
alerts
since
we
are
currently
experiencing
high
participation
at
our
clinics.
Also,
the
county
has
not
made
any
direct
requests
for
the
alerts
at
this
time.
However,
if
or
when
the
numbers
do
fall,
or
should
the
county
make
a
request,
we
will
reevaluate
and
reinstitute
the
wireless
emergency
alerts
as
appropriate.
N
These
are
additional
numbers
that
illustrate
the
vaccination
rate
by
race
and
ethnicity,
ethnicity.
In
santa
clara
county.
During
our
september
council
update,
we
had
presented
these
numbers
based
on
the
data
that
was
made
available,
which,
at
the
time
reflected
ages,
12
and
up
with
at
least
one
dose.
N
The
numbers
that
you
see
today
reflect
ages
5
and
up
with
at
least
one
dose
and
so
again
aligning
more
with
the
population
that
is
currently
eligible.
As
mentioned
before.
The
city
of
san
jose
has
a
89.5
vaccination
rate,
city
residents,
age,
12
and
up
that
have
completed
their
vaccinations
and
through
direct
partnerships
with
the
county
and
our
other
partner
providers.
We
have
delivered
nearly
30
000
vaccinations
to
date
and
we
have
had
2.36
million
resident
impressions
through
our
digital
vaccine
outreach
efforts.
N
With
the
boosters,
originally
the
cdc
recommended
boosters
for
those
50
and
above
or
18
and
above
in
long-term
care
settings
and
those
18
between
18
and
50,
based
on
their
individual
risks.
However,
it
has
been
expanded
to
all
adults.
Bottom
line
is
just
all
adults.
Anyone,
age,
18
and
over
and
six
months
have
passed
since
they've
completed
their
vaccination
with
moderna
or
pfizer,
or
two
months
have
passed
since
they've
completed
their
vaccinations
with
johnson
and
johnson,
and
I
believe
sarah
will
talk
a
little
bit
more
on
advocacy.
So
I'll
turn
the
presentation
over
to
sarah.
O
L
Thank
you.
Sarah
just
wanted
to
end
on
some
integration
of
some
of
our
efforts
and,
and
obviously
a
lot
is
changing
and
and
changing
daily
and
weekly,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
we
learned
early
on
in
the
pandemic,
especially
when
there's
this
much
change
in
this
and
much
information
is
residents
can
be
overloaded.
Our
public
can
get
overloaded
with
information,
and
so
I
know
I
touched
upon
this
last
month,
but
we're
really
going
to
work
to
integrate
parallel
communication
efforts
to
our
residents
to
ensure.
L
So
I
wanted
to
talk
about
that
and
warn
you
under
carolina's
leadership,
she'll
be
doing
that
over
the
next
month,
along
with
the
recovery
section
with
rosalind
huey-
and
I
mentioned
that
because
I
think
one
of
the
more
successful
things
we've
done
is
carolina
every
week
sends
you
a
toolkit
or
communication
package
to
put
out
to
your
residence
and
by
the
way.
Thank
you
very
much
for
doing
that.
You
have
a
wide
network
as
well.
L
You'll
start
to
see
that
those
messages
are
going
to
change
and
they'll,
be
a
little
bit
more
concise
and
and
have
a
few
different
messages
versus
a
lot
of
different
messages
about
one
thing,
and
that
really
comes
from
the
behavioral
insights
work
that
we
did
early
on
in
the
pandemic,
as
well
as
the
county
and
other
partners,
and
this
is
really
an
effort
to
target
those
who
need
it.
The
most
with
the
most
important
messages.
L
P
All
right,
thank
you,
bravery,
quinn
here
happy
morning
to
everyone.
Thanks
for
the
report,
you
know
my
feelings
about.
You
know
the
overall
I've
been
trying
to
practice
for
a
few
months.
Now
that
you
know
how
we're
going
to
talk
about
the
future
the
vaccination
process,
we
have
to
learn
how
to
do
that
better.
I'm
making
my
own
attempts,
I
hope
yourselves
can
as
well.
P
We
just
explained
some
nice
things
what
you'll
be
trying
to
do
with
the
vaccination
process
in
the
next
month,
but
boy,
you
know
if
we
learn
to
talk
about
the
process.
What
exactly
is
the
importance
of
the
vaccine
process
and
how
can
we
have
health,
how
it
can
be
a
part
of
our
future
or
regular
lifestyle
choices,
and
what
that
lifestyle
choices
mean
in
our
relationship
with
our
computer
technology
and
with
our
just
day-to-day
living
situations?
P
P
We
have
to
prepare
for
that
and
be
ready
for
that.
This
winter
and
now
it's
starting
up
and
we're
getting
ready.
So
good
luck
to
our
our
ideas
of
better
mask
use
and
a
thank
you
that
I
think
we're
trying
to
be
open
to
offer
all
points
of
view
how
to
how
people
feel
about
the
vaccine
process
and
if
people
are
uncomfortable
with
it,
we're
learning
to
make
room
for
that
and-
and
it's
important
thing
I
think
I
hope
we
can
continue
to
work
on
while
still
practicing
community
safety.
P
I
guess
that's
about
all
for
myself,
a
final
reminder
that
you
know
the
importance
of
you
know:
open
accountable
technology
practices
can
really
help
facilitate
decent
conversations
for
all
sides
about
the
future
of
vaccine
use
and
our
future
with
covet
19..
So
good
luck
with
yourselves
and
and
the
work
you'll
be
doing
in
the
next
month.
Thank
you.
K
Yes,
good
morning
from
the
horseshoe
a
couple
of
things
number
one:
was
there
any
updated
data
with
respect
to
the
asian
population?
The
last
time
that
you
gave
a
report,
the
asian
population
was
at
like
99
vaccinated,
and
you
know
I
mean
I
didn't
I
didn't
know
a
couple
of
council
members
accepted
that
as
as
a
legitimate
number.
So
I'd
like
to
know
if
that's
been
amended
and
if
so
what
that
number
is
number
two.
K
Is
there
wasn't
any
information
about
the
reinfection
rate
for
people
that
are
vaccinated,
and
I
think
that
if
we
put
that
into
the
public
domain
that
we
will
get
a
a
more
comprehensive
view
of
what
it
is
that
we're
actually
dealing
with?
And
whether
or
not
these
I
mean
not,
that
we
wouldn't
be
cautious,
you
know
given
the
vaccine,
but
it's
a
reality
that
I
think
given
the
report,
it
would
be
incomplete
without
that
data
in
terms
of
what
it
is
that
we're
looking
at.
C
C
Q
Q
Q
San
jose
during
covid
had
two-thirds
of
the
county's
coveted
cases,
and
then
most
of
those
numbers
have
been
in
east
san
jose
and
many
of
the
essential
workers
that
live
in
santa
clara
county.
In
fact,
many
of
the
workforce
for
other
cities
live
in
san
jose,
and
so
why?
Why
do
we
not
have
city
specific
vaccination
data
so
that
a
city
like
san
jose,
which
has
been
so
tremendously
impacted
by
covid,
can
measure
our
way
out
of
it.
M
So,
council,
member
dolan
beckel
here
so
we
we
do
have
that
data
we've
been
presenting
it
at
kind
of
the
policy
level,
which
is
the
total
number.
We
can
certainly
go
back
to
some.
We
can.
We
previously
did
present
that
data,
I
think
by
census,
tracker
by
zip
code,
and
we
certainly
can
go
back
and
do
that.
Q
Okay,
that
would
be
helpful,
so
I
I'm
glad
that
I
followed
up,
because
I
was
confused
by
the
mention
in
that
presentation.
You
know
particularly,
I
know
we
all
pay
attention
to
that
data,
particularly
in
areas
that
have
been
really
hard
hit,
where
we
do
think
of
the
crazy
ideas.
I
know
councilmember
carrasco
and
councilmember
adenas,
like
we've,
been
out
there
doing
some
interesting
things
to
get
people
vaccinated
and
it's
something
I
pay
attention
to
and
it's
a
useful
tool.
So
that
would
be
helpful.
Q
Thank
you,
and
so
I
read
it
wasn't
in
this
report,
but
I
had
read
that
santa
clara
county,
due
to
the
great
work
that
everybody's
doing,
is
in
the
top
five
counties
in
california
for
vaccinating
kids
5
to
11..
I
think
that's
pretty
extraordinary
that
we
came
out
of
the
gate
and
it's
in
in
really
a
result.
I
think
of
all
the
partnerships
that
have
been
built
up
over
the
past
year
and
a
half
the
projections
before
thanksgiving
showed
an
expected
increase
due
to
the
gathering
in
thanksgiving.
Q
So
I
have
two
questions
related
to
that.
One
is:
how
are
we
preparing
for
coveted
testing,
because
it
all
the
projections
showed
coveted
cases
were
going
to
shoot
up
because
people
were
coming
together.
So
how
are
we
sort
of
preparing
to
test
people
and
respond
to
an
increase
in
covert
cases
and
then
two?
Q
M
So,
council,
member
dolan
again
so
the
county
and
the
city,
are
both
tracking
the
case
rate
and
looking
at
the
hospitalizations
and
determining
if
actions
need
to
be
taken,
we've
flattened
out
and
things
are
stable
and
we've
gotten
actually
through
halloween
and
in
another
week,
will
be
through
thanksgiving.
So
we're
we're,
keeping
a
very
close
eye
on
that
we're
also
at
we're
also
coming
up
on
month,
five
of
the
wave
4
peak
and
generally
whether
you
look
at
1918
or
you
look
at
this
pandemic.
M
If
we've
gone
more
than
five
months,
we've
kind
of
gotten
out
of
it,
so
so
we're
looking
at
duration,
we're
looking
at
it.
You
know
the
intensity
and
we're
looking
at
the
hospitalizations
and
and
we're
ready
to.
We
are
ready
to
take
action,
but
we're
not
seeing
it
in
the
data
to
justify
taking
action
based
on
the
capacity
we
currently
have.
L
Okay,
thank
you,
and
I
would,
I
would
just
say:
dolan
is
absolutely
right.
One
thing
that
the
county
did
do
in
august
of
september.
When
you
know
it
was,
I
think,
was
more
august
when
the
delta
variant
showed
up
was
to
just
purchase
additional
capacity
for
testing
as
well.
So
dolan
is
absolutely
correct.
L
The
policy
really
hasn't
changed
because
of
where
the
data
is
at,
and
they
kind
of
thought
that
if
the
data
shifted,
it
would
really
be
after
thanksgiving
and
to
make
that
choice,
but
they've,
given
an
awful
lot
of
testing
capacity
to
the
pharmacies
to
the
school
districts
that
are
now
in
schools
and
that
are
holding
back
themselves
so
that
they
can
ramp
up
capacity.
So
they
do
have
resources
and
operational
capacity
to
to
meet
that
change.
If
the
data
warrants
you
know
more
communication
or
more
testing.
Q
Okay,
that's
helpful.
That
was
my
next
question
was
about
the
capacity
for
testing.
So,
for
example,
the
evergreen
school
district
is
a
partner
to
county
public
health
to
provide
testing
for
the
east
side,
not
just
for
evergreen
school
district
families,
so
that
they
can
do
that
testing,
and
so
my
follow-up
on
on
the
my
next
question
is
on
the
messaging
right.
I
think
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we
need
to
include
on
the
messaging
is,
I
agree.
It
needs
to
be
really
simplified.
Q
Some
of
it
has
been
confusing
and
I
don't
mean
like
ours
or
the
county.
I
just
mean
in
general,
like
I
don't
think
the
public
cares
like
who's
saying
it
they're
just
getting
a
lot
and-
and
so
I
think,
simplifying
it,
but
also
reminding
folks
that
they
still
need
to
get
tested.
Testing
is
still
a
thing.
L
Q
It's
going
to
be
a
thing,
especially
as
people
are
gathering,
because
if
we
remember
gathering
was
the
number
one
way
to
get
comfort
and
it
still
is
right.
So,
okay,
that's
that's
very
helpful
and
because
I
I
mean
I'm
hopeful,
I
think
if
we
can
make
it
through
this
winter,
like
it's
it'll
be
it'll,
be
good.
I
think,
because
we're
natural
optimists,
the
other
thing
on
messaging,
was
two
things.
Two
more
things
one
is,
I
think
we
have.
Q
The
last
thing
that
I
wanted
to
address
was
a
couple
weeks
ago,
when
boosters
came
out,
there
was
a
site
in
my
district
that
had
seniors
being
turned
away
because
the
site
was
overwhelmed
and
a
lot
of
the
folks
were
monolingual,
and
you
know
I
I
don't
know
about
you,
but
you
know
when
my
mom
goes
to
the
doctor.
Like
it's
a
thing,
you
know
it
takes
a
while,
like
there's
a
cup
of
tea
involved
afterwards,
you
know,
and
so
so
to
get
somebody.
Q
Q
If,
if
they
do
think
that
they're
going
to
get
overwhelmed,
how
can
we
partner
with
them
to
provide
alternate
sites
so
that
somebody's
not
wasting
that
trip,
because
it
does
take
a
lot
out
of
you
right,
I
mean
so
anyway.
That's
that's
sort
of
my
last
request
is
I'd
like
to
really
partner
more
with
the
county.
On
that
I
I
don't
want
them
to
feel
like
they're
alone,
but
we
need
our
community
vaccinated
and
how
can
we
work
together
to
to
get
that
result.
M
M
It
was
montpellier,
a
lot
of
vietnamese
people
showing
up,
and
so
I
think
we
need
to
tighten
up
the
the
difference
between
an
appointment
versus
a
show
up.
That
was
some
of
the
problem.
Was,
it
just
said,
show
up,
but
they
were
also
taking
appointments,
and
so
people
were
showing
up
thinking.
It
was
just
get
in
line
and
they
were
trying
to
manage
appointments
with
people
who
showed
up,
and
it
communication
can
be
better.
So
I'll
take
some
of
those
personal
experiences
as
well
to
work
with
the
county
yeah
and
how.
Q
We
can
message
that,
because
I've
been
out
to
many
sites
in
the
past
few
weeks
in
my
districts,
I've
gone
out
personally
to
them,
and
I've
witnessed
public
health
being
amazing.
When
someone
says
yeah,
I
don't
have
an
appointment.
I
just
I
got
here
and
they're
like
you
know
what
sit
down,
we'll
figure
it
out
right.
That's
I've
seen
them
do
that
over
and
over
and
over
again,
so
they
do
try
and
resolve
it.
E
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
the
report.
Thank
you
for
the
the
positive
numbers
regarding
the
vaccines
and
I'm
hopeful
that
the
younger
kids
will
start
getting
more
and
more
vaccines
in
that
regard.
But
here
we
are
again
a
year
later
and
we
were
shutting
down
businesses.
We,
the
county,
let's
say
we're
shutting
down
businesses
because
of
a
spike.
M
Right
right
thanks,
councilmember
foley
and
I
think
lee
had
a
recent
conversation
with
the
county,
so
he
can.
He
can
weigh
in
on
that,
but
I'll
go
out
and
learn
here
and
say
my
my
professional
observation
is
in
the
last
four
days,
there's
been
a
huge
overreaction
right,
both
the
equity
markets,
the
press.
So
here's
what
here's
here's
here's,
what
we
know
is
it
started
either
in
the
netherlands
or
south
africa.
M
President
biden
having
been
briefed
by
a
number
of
people
and
having
been
exposed
to
the
israeli
data
on
this
and
the
south
africa
data
publicly
stated
we
will
not
be
going
back
into
lockdowns
and
sheltering
places.
I
think
what
you'll
see
is.
Maybe
we
have
to
have
boosters
more
often.
Maybe
it
has
to
be
a
different
booster,
but
I
think
that's
kind
of
the
where
we
are
it's,
it's
another
variant
and
may
or
may
not
be
be.
M
Com
be
treatable,
with
the
the
current
vaccines
may
be
largely
effective
or
or
slightly
less
than
that,
but
they
are
going
to
be
effective.
So
it's
probably
a
matter
of
time
and
the
type
of
and
duration
of
the
booster
shots
in
the
same
way
that
we
have
to
have
boosters
for
the
shingles.
Like
two
years
ago,
we
had
to
get
our
shingrex
double
shots
right,
so
so
we're
kind
of
entering
that
mode
where
these
variants
are
going
to
come
up.
M
We're
going
to
have
to
do
the
science,
but
given
the
vaccination
rates
that
we
have
the
reason
that
first
slide,
I
don't
know
if
we
can
go
back
to
one
of
the
slides
I
had.
But
if
you
look
at
where
there's
lots
of
cases,
it's
where
the
vaccination
rate
is
below
30,
if
you
look
where
there's
a
handful
of
cases,
it's
the
first,
this
the
slide
on
a
back
to
slide
with
the
planet.
M
M
M
We
need
to
do
the
testing
on
the
mutations
to
see
what
actions
we
take,
one
more
back,
one
more
right
so
expecting
this
question
might
come
up.
South
africa
and
botswana
have
23
29,
full
vaccination
respectively
they're
having
thousands
of
new
cases
and
when
the
interviews
with
the
doctors
say,
the
symptoms
are
very
mild.
If
you
go
to
hong
kong,
which
is
62,
vaccinated,
they've
had
two
cases.
If
you
go
to
israel,
they've
had
less
than
10.
If
you
go
to
belgium,
they've
had
less
than
10.
M
L
L
So
I
think
dolan's
right
if,
if
we
start
seeing
changes,
it'll
be
tweaks
to
that
framework
and
some
local
protections
to
get
us
through
these
winter
months,
because
maybe
that
framework
arrives
too
early
for
us,
given
our
vaccination
rate
and
what's
going
on
around
us
with
visitors,
but
I
don't
in
any
of
the
conversations
I've
had.
I
have
not
had
that
come
up
or
even
kind
of
construed
until
the
president
yesterday
clarified
that
that
was
the
first
time
I
had
heard
it.
E
I
hope
the
booster
shot.
If
there's
another
one,
it
doesn't
knock
me
out,
like
the
last
booster
shot
knocked
me
out
for
three
days
so,
but
it's
worth
it
to
have
it
and
I'm
glad
our
vaccination
rates
are
as
high
as
they
are
in
san
jose
and
santa
clara
county.
Thank
you
for
that.
That's
it
for
me!
Thank
you.
R
R
So
I
see
76.9
and
89.5,
which
is
fantastic,
and
I
want
to
thank
all
of
our
partners
and,
of
course,
all
of
you
in
the
county.
I
want
to
thank
my
colleagues
because
I
know
that
they've
pushed
so
hard
gotten
midnight
phone
calls
from
some
of
my
colleagues
trying
to
be
very
creative
and
also
up
in
arms
when
these
numbers
weren't
exactly
what
we're
looking
at
now
and-
and
I
appreciate
it-
the
urgency
was
felt.
R
R
I
have
you
in
the
future,
bring
back
the
disaggregated
information
because,
as
you
know,
you
know
in
the
previous
what
24
months
or
whatever
it's
been,
we've
always
looked
at
it
as
a
disaggregated
slide,
so
that
we
have
a
better
understanding
as
to
what
we
really
need
to
be
looking
and
concentrating
on.
And
of
course,
we
know
that
our
essential
workers
were
people
of
color,
specifically
latinos
black
asian
and
the
biggest
concern
that
we
had,
of
course,
were
our
latino
population,
given
that
they
were
the
ones
that
were
really
trailing
behind.
M
R
I
don't
want
to
just
say
san
jose.
I
mean
it's
helpful,
but
I
do
want
to
see
in
general
yeah,
because
when
I
look
at
santa
clara
county
73
vaccinated-
and
I
know
that
the
latino
population
is
about
26,
I
can
kind
of
do
the
math
and
it
scares
me
a
little
bit
to
think
that
the
those
who
are
missing
from
that
equation
might
still
be
the
bulk
of
the
folks
that
we
were
always
fearing
so
I'm
eager
to
celebrate.
M
R
M
M
Prefacing
we'll
bring
the
data
the
the
county
has
admitted
they
have
a
problem
with
some
of
the
data
and
sometimes
the
numbers
are
not
aligned.
We
saw
it
with
alviso
in
the
post
office
boxes
and
we've
seen
it
in
other
places
where,
where
the
number
of
people
vaccinated
are
actually
higher
than
the
population
in
that
area,
so
we
will
bring
you
that
data
and
I
will
just
be
aware,
I
will
point
out
areas
where
we
think
that
the
data
may
be
slightly
inaccurate.
R
R
M
R
But,
but
if
it
were
the
flip
side,
where
we
think
that
they're
vaccinated
and
they're
not
then
that
that
would
be
a
real
huge
that'd,
be
a
huge
concern
for
me,
so
so
yeah.
If
we
could
have
it,
if
we
could
have
something
that
we
could
be
looking
at
again,
when
I
look
at
the
numbers,
of
course,
you
know
it's,
it's
promising
they
keep
going
up,
but
are
they
going
up
in
those
vulnerable
communities?
R
R
M
We
do,
but
I
would
like
to
point
out
that
the
national
vaccination
rate,
as
of
last
week
for
five
to
11,
was
7.5
percent,
so
we
are
300
percent
ahead
of
the
curve,
as
showing
our
focus
on
the
kids
and
those
geographies
and
and
to
your
point,
we
will
come
back
with
some
better
measurements
of
the
next
time.
We
report
back.
R
For
the
kiddos,
thank
you
so
much.
I
really
appreciate
it
and
and
again,
as
a
council
member
sparza
said,
you
know,
we
have
to
make
peace,
knowing
that
that
this
is
the
way
that
life
will
be
moving
forward.
Someone
said
something
about
shingles.
Had
I
known
what
shingles
was,
I
would
have
gotten
the
booster,
I
got
it
during
the
pandemic
and
it
was
the
most
horrific
experience
I
I've
had
in
my
adult
life.
I
had
no
idea
what
it
was.
R
I
thought
it
was
a
backache
and
it
surely
was
not,
but
it
is
just
going
to
be
something
that
we
have
to
live
with
and
understand
it
and
and
make
peace
with
it.
Of
course,
this
is
just
the
beginning
of
it,
and
so
we've
been
in
in
crisis
mode,
but
we
will
have
to
at
some
point
change
our
messaging
and
and
learn
to
to
to
live
side
by
side
with
it.
There's
no
other.
I
don't
see
any
other
way
out
of
this.
I
I
do
like
something
that
council
member
esparza
said.
R
You
know
we
are
a
community
of
vaccines.
We
we.
You
know
this
was
a
new
one,
so
this
is.
I
think
this
was
the
fear
of
it.
It
was.
It
was
a
new
vaccine
and
I
think
that
was
the
fear
for
everybody.
Black
brown,
white,
blue,
yellow,
whatever
your
your
country
of
origin,
the
hue
of
the
your
skin
tone
your
socio-economic
status.
This
was,
it
was
new.
R
It
was
unchartered
territory,
it
was
frightening
and-
and
you
know
the
conspiracy
theories
begin
to
rise
just
like
in
anything,
because
we
need
to
justify
what
our
fears
are,
but
like
the
flu
and
chickenpox
and
measles
and
rubella
it's
here
to
stay
and
and
I'm
hoping
for
the
best,
and
I
I
do
hope
that
understanding
how
this
now
saves
lives
after
we've
lost
so
much
that
we
will.
That
will
be
the
beginning
of
our
our
peacemaking
with
it.
R
G
Thank
you.
I'm
really
grateful
for
this
report
also
that
councilmember
carrasco,
you
have
a
champagne
bottle,
you're,
not
uncorking
it,
but
you
at
the
very
least.
Have
it
in
hand.
You
just
chilled
right
chilled
and
ready
to
go.
So
I'm
also
with
you
on
that,
but
there
is
a
lot
to
celebrate
because
we've
seen
the
progress
over
time.
These
are
different
issues
that
we're
bringing
up
some
of
them
are
are
similar
because
logistics
are
logistics
and
people
are
people,
and
so
I
I
think
you
know
you'll
work
through
some
of
those
things.
G
I
really
appreciate
the
the
undercover
I
in
my
mind
I
thought
you
know.
Maybe
those
dark,
rimmed,
glasses
and
mustache
kind
of
a
thing,
and
so
I
was
thinking.
Are
you
going
to
do
that
in
all
of
our
districts
that
have
high
contraction
rates,
because
I
would
love,
I
would
love
that
kind
of
I'm
not
kidding,
I'm
not
kidding.
M
L
I
would
just
say
I
mean
alvin
doesn't
speak
about
it
enough,
but
as
as
a
council
member,
as
far
as
I've
mentioned,
you
know,
a
great
majority
of
our
employees
live
throughout
the
city
and
alvin
being
a
long
time.
Employee
has
been
able
to
tap
into
a
lot
of
those
people
to
ask
about
what
their
experience
was
and
then
funnel
it
back
to
us
when
we're
having
conversations
with
the
county
or
others.
So
you
know,
I
would
have
liked
to
see
dolan
a
fake
mustache
as
well.
G
Intensify
add
to
that
because
nancy
who's,
my
deputy
chief
of
staff,
said
about
two
weeks
ago.
She
went
to
the
flanagan
and
king
site
and
it
it
was
fast
and
easy.
So
it
is
working.
I
think,
there's
probably
some
off
days,
one
of
the
things
that
I
wanted
to
bring
up.
That's
slightly
different,
because
I
didn't
want
to
underline
some
of
the
comments
that
I
colleagues
have
made,
especially
the
breaking
down
of
the
information
that
I'm
you've
heard
it
before.
G
So
I'm
not
going
to
go
into
that,
but
what
I
am
going
to
go
into
is
that
in
the
past
we,
our
messaging
and
our
marketing-
has
been
very
specific
to
different
populations,
this
24
percent
for
five
through
eleven.
We
need
to
have
a
different
messaging
for
them.
You
know
the
the
governor
did
did
a
huge
million
dollar
raffle.
G
I,
as
a
parent,
am
having
a
really
difficult
time
convincing
my
seven-year-old
to
because
I
don't
I
don't
want
to
you
know
I
don't
want
to
have
that
ugly
picture,
and
I
don't
want
her
to
have
that
ugly
picture
in
her
mind
of
being
forced
to
have
a
vaccination,
and
so
when
she
had
lab
work
done.
It
was
like
weeks
and
weeks
of
talking
to
her
talking
her
through
it.
I
had
to
commit
to
three
toys.
G
After
you
know,
we
have
to
take
like
the
medic
fork,
lollipop
and
stickers,
like
what
are
we
giving
our
kiddos
and
how
are
we
working
with
the
schools
in
order
for
them
to
to
to
get
through
this?
Because,
if
I
you
know
my
kid
is
like
any
other
kid
they're
afraid
right
and
they
just
don't
want
that
needle
in
their
in
their
arm,
but
they
do
like
gifts.
So
what?
What?
What
are
we
doing?
What
are
we
working
on
that
speaks
to
children.
M
So
one
way
I
would
say
that
is
we're
we
can
come
back
and
give
you
a
much
more
detailed
description
from
carolina
when
she's
back
carolina
is
taking
like
it's
her
child's
birthday
and
so
she's
gotten
the
first
first
day
off
in
a
while.
I
I
do
know
last
time
she
talked
about
what
you
know.
We
remain
focused
on
the
most
vulnerable.
We
are
pivoting.
H
M
L
L
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
the
county
did
with
the
schools
is
when
they
did,
they
did
focus
groups
with
the
12
and
over,
but
they
also
did
some
with
5
and
11,
and
a
lot
of
it
actually
is
happening
at
the
schools.
If
they
want
to
continue
playing
band,
they
need
to
be
vaccinated.
If
they
want
to
be
on
the
soccer
team,
they
need
to
be
vaccinated.
L
G
Yeah
you
know
I
I
don't
know
that
every
district
is
is
doing
the
same
things.
My
son
was
in
cross
country
and
they
didn't
ask
him
for
a
vaccination
proof
he
does
have.
He
does
have
it
and
councilmember.
As
far
as
I
just
mentioned,
that
kids
are
very
good
negotiators,
and
so
I
think
the
31
flavors
is
a
starting
point
for
you
lee.
G
You
never
know
what
you're
gonna
end
up
having
to
purchase
for
that
vaccination,
but
you
know
getting
back
to
the
seriousness
of
this
because,
after
holidays,
our
children
are
one
of
the
ones
one
of
the
groups
that
are
are
on
a
daily,
connecting
with
30
different
households
and
more
right
and
so
and
in
very
close
contact.
Even
if
it
is,
you
know,
separately,
just
inadvertently,
you're
going
to
touch
something.
Somebody
else
touch
blah
blah
blah.
G
So
it
would
be
wonderful
to
I'd
love
for
us
to
work
together.
So
we
can
have
some
of
the
school
sites.
I
know
play
space
was
really
important
for
me
in
eastridge.
You
know
our
roller
rink
is
back
in
business
and
I'm
really
happy
for
that
and
for
them
to
to
have
their
business
open
once
again.
But
that
means
a
loss
of
a
site
in
that
area
that
was
very
productive
and
then
the
the
last
thing
I
was
going
to
ask
is
about
our
own
requirements
for
vaccinations.
G
L
Yeah
something
that
we're
reviewing
now
with
all
the
various
programs
and
kind
of
to
dullan's
point
we're
really
seeing
where
the
data
goes
so
we'll
be
making
decisions.
I
would
say
like
within
the
next
month
about
those
programs,
as
well
as
any
follow-up
ordinance
for
city
facilities
related
to
5
and
11
as
well.
G
Yeah,
you
know
I
have
somebody
who
is
in
the
same
school
district.
My
daughter
is
in,
and
I
just
remembered
what
she
was
telling
me
was
that
they
were
testing
there
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
she
got
like
a
bill
for
three
or
four
tests
that
were
going
to
be.
You
know
a
high
cost
for
her
and
and
if
she
had
another
option,
which
is
our
county,
I
mean
it
just
works,
and
so
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
parents
who
may
not.
G
You
know
the
schools
sometimes
get
a
little
burdensome
with
forms
and
consents
and
whatnot
and
they're
and
they're,
not,
I
don't
think,
being
very
clear
about
the
actual
end
cost
to
a
family
for
either
testing
or
vaccination.
So
I
think
that's
another
thing
that
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we,
when
we
work
with
the
schools
that
we
figure
this
out
and
then
I'm
guessing
that
you're
you're
going
to
have
some
kind
of
plan
for
after
the
holidays
to
ramp
up
in
those
areas
where
you're
all
shaking
your
head.
Yes,
so
thank
you.
