OFFICERS
OFFICERS WHO DIED IN THE LINE OF DUTY. TIME TO GET YOU CAUGHT UP ON THE LATEST CORONA VIRUS
DEVELOPMENTS. THERE ARE NOW
MORE THAN ONE POINT TWO MILLION
CASES IN THE U.S.. SEVENTY ONE
THOUSAND PEOPLE HAVE DIED AS A
RESULT FROM THIS VIRUS. HERE IN
SAN DIEGO, ONE HUNDRED AND
FORTY ADDITIONAL CASES WERE
REPORTED POSITIVE. AND THAT
MAKES THE TOTAL NOW FOUR
THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY
CONFIRMED CASES AND SADLY WE
HAVE SIX NEW DEATHS TO REPORT
BRINGING THE TOTAL TO ONE
HUNDRED AND FIFTY. BUT THE GOOD
NEWS. TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED
AND EIGHTY FOUR PEOPLE HAVE
RECOVERED JUST A DAY AFTER
THE COUNTY VOTED TO APPROVE A
GUIDELINE FOR SOME BUSINESSES
TO REOPEN. A HANDFUL OF LOCAL
LEADERS ARE ASKING THE STATE
FOR EVEN MORE TYPES OF
BUSINESSES TO BEGIN OPERATING.
NEWS AGE CHRIS GROSS LIVED
DOWNTOWN WHERE A MEDIA
CONFERENCE WRAPPED UP NOT TOO
LONG AGO. CHRIS. GOOD MORNING,
ERIC. AND ESSENTIALLY WHAT WE
SAW WAS A GROUP OF MAYORS FROM
ALCOHOL IN SAN MARCOS AND THEN
A COUNCIL MEMBER FROM SAN
DIEGO. SCOTT SHERMAN AND THEN
AS WELL AS SOME OTHER BUSINESS
LEADERS. AND WHAT THEY'RE
ASKING FOR IS FOR NON-ESSENTIAL
BUSINESSES THAT HAVE BEEN
CLOSED DUE TO REGULATIONS OR
JUST PRECAUTIONS MITIGATION
EFFORTS TO BE ALLOWED TO REOPEN
A LOT SOONER THAN WHAT
THE STATE HAS IN MIND. NOW KEEP
IN MIND THAT CURRENTLY IN
CALIFORNIA WE ARE IN THE SECOND
PHASE OF THE CALIFORNIA
GOVERNOR'S PLAN TO REOPEN
THE STATE AND THE STATE'S
ECONOMY. THAT MEANS THAT WE ARE
ABOUT TO HEAD TO A POINT WHERE
CERTAIN BUSINESSES LIKE
BOOKSTORES, CLOTHING STORES,
TOY STORES AND SPORTING GOODS
STORES WOULD BE ALLOWED TO
REOPEN STARTING ON FRIDAY FOR
PHASE TWO. BUT FOR CURBSIDE
PICKUP ONLY WHAT THESE MAYORS
WANTED ESPECIALLY COUNCIL
MEMBER SCOTT SHERMAN WANTED WAS
TO SEE THAT THEY BE ABLE TO
OPEN OTHER STORES THAT ARE NOT
LISTED IN THIS PHASE. THEY
BASICALLY WANT TO SKIP AHEAD
BECAUSE THEY FEEL LIKE SAN
DIEGO IS AHEAD OF THE CURVE SO
TO SPEAK. WHEN YOU COMPARE THEM
TO OTHER CITIES AND OTHER
COUNTIES AS COUNCIL MEMBER
SCOTT SHERMAN PUT IT, IF
THE BIG BOX STORES THAT ARE
SELLING THE SAME GOODS,
THE SAME EQUIPMENTS ARE ALLOWED
TO BE OPEN, THEN WHY CAN'T
THE MOM AND POP STORES BE OPEN
AS WELL? WE'VE SEEN THAT WITH
APPROPRIATE SOCIAL DISTANCING
GUIDELINES AND PROTOCOLS PUT IN
PLACE WITH THE RETAILERS AND
THAT THAT YOU KNOW, THE BIG BOX
STORES THAT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED
TO BE OPEN. WE'VE SEEN THAT
THOSE PROTOCOLS WORK AND THAT
WAS IN RESPONSE TO A QUESTION
THAT WE HAD FOR THE COUNCIL
MEMBERS ESSENTIALLY SAYING IF
THERE IS NO VACCINE AND THERE
IS NO CURE AT THIS TIME IF
BUSINESSES REOPENED, WHAT WOULD
BE DIFFERENT? WHAT WOULD
PREVENT A SURGE AND COUNCIL
MEMBER SAYS THAT HE WAS VERY
CONFIDENT THAT THE EFFORTS THAT
WE'VE SEEN IN STORES THAT ARE
OPEN DURING THIS TIME THAT
THE EFFORTS THAT THEY HAVE
UNDERTAKEN TO MAKE SURE THAT
CUSTOMERS STAY SAFE, THAT THAT
CAN EASILY BE ADOPTED BY SOME
OF THESE SMALLER STORES THAT
ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED. GUYS,
BACK TO YOU CHRIS. THANK YOU. A
LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EAGER TO GET
BACK TO WORK. MEANWHILE,
PRESIDENT TRUMP NOW SAYS
THE WHITE HOUSE CORONA TASK
FORCE WILL CONTINUE INDEFINITE

BE WINDING DOWN. SKYLER HENRY

LITTLE BIT OF A DIFFERENT FORM
AND THAT FORM OF SAFETY AND
OPENING AND WILL WE'LL HAVE A
DIFFERENT GROUP PROBABLY SET UP
FOR THAT. THIS COMES AS NEW
MODELS SHOW OPENING UP STAGE

THE CORONA VIRUS. WE CAN'T KEEP
OUR COUNTRY CLOSED FOR THE NEXT
FIVE YEARS. YOU KNOW, YOU CAN
SAY THAT MIGHT BE A RECURRENCE
AND THAT THERE MIGHT BE AND YOU
KNOW, MOST DOCTORS OR SOME
DOCTORS SAY THAT IT WILL HAPPEN
AND IT'LL BE A FLAME AND
WHETHER TO PUT THE FLAME OUT.
