DEASY'S
DEASY'S NEWS AGENCY 11:00 A.M. .GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. AND THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING.
I'M ERIC CONNOR AND STELLA
ESCOVEDO IS JOINING US FROM
HOME. STELLA, GOOD MORNING.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING
US. YEAH. WE HAVE A LOT TO TO
GET TO RIGHT NOW BUT INCLUDING
A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT FROM TOKYO.
IN THE MEANTIME, THOUGH, LET'S
GET YOU CAUGHT UP ON THE LATEST
NUMBERS. HERE IS WHAT WE KNOW
AS OF RIGHT NOW THE NUMBERS ARE
RAPIDLY CLIMBING HERE IN
THE U.S. MORE THAN 580
AMERICANS HAVE DIED AND 46000
ARE INFECTED HERE IN SAN DIEGO.
THERE'S A TOTAL OF 230 COME
FROM CASES AND ONE DEATH. ERIC
AND THE TOKYO SUMMER OLYMPIC
GAMES WILL NOT BE HAPPENING
THIS SUMMER. THE INTERNATIONAL
OLYMPIC COMMITTEE IS POSTPONING
THEM TO NEXT YEAR WHILE
THE WORLD GRAPPLES WITH THIS
CORONA VIRUS PANDEMIC HERE. IT
COMES AS THE OLYMPIC TORCH
ARRIVES IN JAPAN JUST DAYS AGO,
RAIMY IN A SENSE REPORTS NOW
FROM TOKYO. TEAM USA VOICED ITS
SUPPORT FOR A POSTPONEMENT
SAYING IN A STATEMENT EVEN IF
THE CURRENT SIGNIFICANT HEALTH
CONCERNS COULD BE ALLEVIATED BY
LATE SUMMER, THE ENORMOUS
DISRUPTIONS TO THE TRAINING
ENVIRONMENT, DOPING CONTROLS
AND QUALIFICATION PROCESS CAN'T
BE OVERCOME. IT'S DEFINITELY
WAY BEYOND SPORTS. IT'S ALL
ABOUT HEALTH AND SAFETY OF NOT
ONLY YOURSELVES BUT THE ONES
AROUND YOU. TEAM USA SPRINTER
MANTEO MITCHELL TOOK HOME A
SILVER MEDAL IN 2012. HE SAYS
POSTPONING THE GAMES WOULD BE
BITTERSWEET BUT FELLOW ATHLETES
GETTING SICK HAS HIM CONCERNED.
HERE I AM A PROFESSIONAL
ATHLETE. I COULD POSSIBLY GET
THIS AND NOT EVEN KNOW
ESPECIALLY WITH MY IMMUNE
SYSTEM BEING AS STRONG AS IT IS
SO YOU KNOW, I'M TAKING ALL
THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS THAT YOU
KNOW, THE CDC IS PUTTING OUT.
FIRST TIME OLYMPIAN KATE
COURTNEY IS A MOUNTAIN BIKER
WHO QUALIFIED FOR THE TOKYO
GAMES. SHE SAID IT'D BE A HUGE
DISAPPOINTMENT NOT TO COMPETE.
I'VE BEEN RIDING VIRTUALLY WITH
OLYMPIANS FROM DIFFERENT
COUNTRIES. I CAN TRAIN FROM MY
HOME GYM AND SHARE VIDEOS ON
INSTAGRAM AND SEE WHAT OTHER
PEOPLE ARE DOING. THIS IS
THE FIRST TIME THE OLYMPICS HAS
EVER BEEN POST PONE IN THE PAST
.THEY HAVE BEEN CANCELED BUT
ONLY DURING TIMES OF WAR.
COUNTY SUPERVISORS ARE
CONSIDERING A MORATORIUM ON
EVICTIONS TODAY. NOW IF PAST
RESIDENTS AND SMALL BUSINESSES
WOULD BE PROTECTED WITH
THE EVICTIONS PUT ON HOLD FOR
THE LENGTH OF THE CORONA VIRUS
PANDEMIC QUARANTINED PASSENGERS
WHO HAD BEEN ONBOARD THAT GRAND
PRINCESS CRUISE SHIP ARE
EXPECTED TO BE RELEASED TODAY.
MANY OF THEM HAD BEEN SENT TO
U.S. MILITARY BASES FOR A TWO
WEEK QUARANTINE AND INCLUDING
MCI YES, MIRAMAR. OVER THE NEXT
FOUR DAYS THEY WILL BE SENT
HOME IN WAVES. MORE STATES
INCLUDING CALIFORNIA ARE
TIGHTENING THEIR RULES ON
NON-ESSENTIAL GATHERINGS. IN AN
EFFORT TO STOP THE SPREAD OF
THE GROWING CORONA VIRUS
OUTBREAK. BUT AS MANY OF US
KNOW, NOT EVERYONE IS
LISTENING. HERE IN SAN DIEGO,
LOCAL OFFICIAL OFFICIALS ARE
NOW TAKING SOME ACTION NEWS
AIDS NADA. RON PAU IS LIVE AT
LA HOYA SHORES TO EXPLAIN WHAT
IS BEING DONE THERE AND IN
OTHER CITIES. IT'S JUST AMAZING
TO SEE BEHIND YOU. NO ONE IS AT
THE BEACH. YEAH, IT'S A TOUGH
THING TO SWALLOW ESPECIALLY ON
A GORGEOUS DAY LIKE TODAY. BUT
WE ARE HERE AT LAGUARDIA
SHORES. THIS IS NORMALLY WHERE
THE KAYAKS LAUNCH AND INSTEAD
YOU SEE TAPE BLOCKING THINGS
OFF. THE BARRICADES ARE HERE
AND POLICE ARE RIGHT HERE ON
THE BOARDWALK SO THEY'RE
LETTING PEOPLE KNOW THEY CAN
NOT ACCESS THIS AREA. SOME
PEOPLE ARE FRUSTRATE. THEY
TYPICALLY COME OUT AND GO FOR
THEIR WALK OR THEY GO FOR THEIR
SWIM HERE AT LAWYER SHORES. BUT
TODAY THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE
ALLOWED FOR UNTIL FURTHER
NOTICE. WE'RE NOT SURE HOW LONG
THESE CLOSURES WILL STAY IN
PLACE BUT OF COURSE IT IS ALL
HERE TO PROTECT PEOPLE'S PUBLIC
HEALTH. AND THEIR SAFETY NOW
THE PARKING LOT AT LAKE SHORE
IS ALSO CLOSED OFF. AND SO IS
THE BOARDWALK AND THE BEACHES.
SO THIS IS WHAT YOU'LL SEE IF
YOU GO UP AND DOWN
THE COASTLINE IN THIS CASE THIS
MORNING THERE WERE TWO TO THREE
SAN DIEGO POLICE VEHICLES
AROUND THE BOARDWALK HERE
MOURNING PEOPLE THAT THEY
CANNOT WALK THEIR DOGS HERE.
SEVERAL SURFERS WERE IN
THE WATER AND WE'VE BEEN TOLD
THAT THEY WILL RECEIVE A STERN
WARNING WHEN THEY GET OUT OF
THE WATER NOT TO COME BACK
DURING THESE BEACH CLOSURES,
THE BEACH CLOSURES ARE ALL
BECAUSE THEY WANT TO STOP
THE SPREAD OF COVE AT 19 OF
COURSE, ESPECIALLY AFTER SO
MANY PEOPLE WERE GATHERING AT
SOME OF THE SAN DIEGO'S MOST
FAVORITE SPOTS ALL WEEKEND
LONG. WE SPOKE WITH
THE SPOKESPERSON FROM THE CITY
OF SAN DIEGO ABOUT
THE LIFEGUARDS EFFORTS TODAY
AND SHE SAYS SO FAR THIS
MORNING THEY'VE INFORMING
PEOPLE IN THE WATER TO GET OUT.
THEY HAVE NOT ISSUED ANY
CITATION YET, ESPECIALLY SINCE
THIS IS THE FIRST FULL DAY OF
THESE NEW RULES. THIS IS THESE
ARE UNPRECEDENTED TIMES. WE ARE
SORRY THAT THIS WHOLE SITUATION
HAS TO EXIST NO ONE
INDIVIDUAL'S FAULT BUT WE CAN
DO THIS TOGETHER AND WE CAN.
AND THE BETTER WE ARE NOW AT
STOPPING THE SPREAD, THE EASIER
THINGS WILL BE FOR US IN
THE LONG RUN. I ALSO SPOKE WITH
THE ENCINITAS LIFEGUARD CAPTAIN
LARRY GILES WHO SAYS THEY HAVE
BARRICADED THEIR PARKING LOTS
THROUGHOUT THE CITY EVENTS.
ANITA'S AS OF MIDNIGHT AND
THE TOP AND BOTTOM BEACH ACCESS
IS ARE ALSO CLOSED ALL MORNING.
THEIR LIFEGUARDS INFORMING
PEOPLE TO STAY OUT OF THE WATER
ASKING THEM FOR VOLUNTARY
COMPLIANCE. THEY SAY PEOPLE
UNDERSTAND THE NEED BUT THEY'RE
ASKING TO KEEP OTHERS BACK AS
WELL. A LOT OF PEOPLE FUNNELING
DOWN THOSE STAIRWELLS GOING TO
THE BEACH IS JUST TOO
DANGEROUS. TOO MANY PEOPLE
GATHERED IN THOSE SMALL SPACES.
SO THEY'RE REALLY STRESSING
THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPLIANCE,
ASKING SURFERS WHO TYPICALLY GO
OUT IN THE MORNINGS TO SET A
GOOD EXAMPLE AS WE START THESE
NEW BEACH CLOSURES. SO HERE WE
ARE. THERE YOU SEE SAN POLICE
ON THEIR MOTORCYCLES. A COUPLE
SUV ARE OUT THERE AS WELL. BUT
OFF IN THE DISTANCE THERE IS A
PADDLE BOARDER. SO YES, WHEN
THAT PADDLE BOARDER COMES BACK
TO SHORE, OFFICERS WILL BE
READY TO LET ME KNOW YET YOU'RE
NOT ALLOWED TO BE OUT HERE. SO
THOSE CITY OF SAN DIEGO BEACHES
ALL THE WAY UP NORTH THROUGH
DEL MAR ARE CLOSED CARD OF
STATE BEACH WE NOTICED IS NOT
CLOSED. AND I ASKED ENSIGN IS
LIFEGUARD WHY NOT? AND HE SAYS
THAT'S NOT PART OF THEIR
JURISDICTION BUT HE STILL DOES
NOT WANT PEOPLE TO GATHER THERE
EITHER. AND THEN THIS EXTENDS
ALL THE WAY INTO NORTH COUNTY
AS WELL INCLUDING PLACES LIKE
CARLSBAD. SO YOU'LL SEE
OFFICERS PATROLLING
THE BEACHES, THE BOARDWALKS.
THEY MEAN BUSINESS. BUT SO FAR
THEY SAY NO CITATIONS JUST
GIVING YOU THE HEADS UP THAT
THESE ARE THE NEW RULES. THAT'S
THE LATEST LIVE HERE TO SHOW
RESPECT HERE IN STUDIO. ALL
RIGHT. THANKS FOR THAT, NINA.
AND SOME GOOD NEWS TO SHARE ON
WALL STREET. STOCKS ARE UP AS
THE WHITE HOUSE AND CONGRESS
BOTH SAY THEY ARE CLOSE TO A
DEAL TO PUMP TWO TRILLION
DOLLARS INTO THE ECONOMY. NEWS
ACE CHRIS CROWE JOINS US LIVE
NOW WITH THE DETAILS CHRIS.
GOOD MORNING, ERIC. WE'RE
HEARING A LOT ABOUT THIS
STIMULUS BILL AND THAT IT COULD
BE FINALIZED WITHIN THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS POTENTIALLY EVEN
AT THE END OF TODAY. THAT COMES
AFTER DEMOCRATS SAY THAT THEY
HAVE INDEED SEEN SOME OF THOSE
CONCESSIONS MADE BY THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION AND REPUBLICANS
THAT OF COURSE COMES AFTER
SEVERAL MEETINGS BETWEEN SENATE
MINORITY LEADER CHUCK SCHUMER
AND THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION,
INCLUDING SIX MEETINGS JUST
YESTERDAY OF THE FEW
OUTSTANDING ISSUES. I DON'T SEE
ANY THAT CAN'T BE OVERCOME
WITHIN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. IT'S
A PART OF THE CONCESSIONS THAT
THEY HAVE BEEN FIGHTING FOR
INCLUDE ACCOUNTABILITY FROM
CORPORATIONS THAT WILL SEE
STIMULUS MONEY PLUS FINANCIAL
HELP FOR HOSPITALS OVERWHELMED
WITH IRS PATIENTS. EVERYTHING
WE'RE HEARING IS THAT ALL SIDES
ARE CONFIDENT A DEAL IS CLOSE
AND AGAIN COULD BE FINALIZED
TODAY. IT WOULD BE A WELCOME
SIGN FOR EMPLOYERS BOTH BIG AND
SMALL AS WELL AS AMERICANS THAT
ARE EITHER OUT OF WORK OR
IMPACTED IN ANOTHER WAY BY
THE PANDEMIC. PRESIDENT TRUMP
EVEN CONSIDERING LOOSENING
RESTRICTIONS ON THE ECONOMY
DESPITE MEDICAL EXPERTS
OPINIONS IN FACT JUST A SHORT
TIME AGO. HE SAID HE'D LIKE TO
SEE TODAY THAT THE U.S. OPEN
AND RARING TO GO WITH ITS
ECONOMY BY EASTER. HOWEVER,
YESTERDAY HE SAID STATES LIKE
NEW YORK AND CALIFORNIA LIKELY
WOULDN'T BE INCLUDED. THERE ARE
OTHER AREAS THAT JUST AREN'T
AFFECTED OR THEY'RE AFFECTED
VERY LITTLE. AND WHY WOULD WE
CLOSE DOWN 100 PERCENT OF
THE COUNTRY? AND WE'RE ALSO
HEARING THAT SIXTY THOUSAND
CORONA VIRUS TEST KITS ARE ON
THEIR WAY. THAT'S DUE TO
THE WHITE HOUSE ENACTING
THE DEFENSE PRODUCTION ACT FOR
THE VERY FIRST TIME. BACK TO
YOU. CHRIS, THANKS FOR STAYING
ON TOP OF THAT. STILL AHEAD
HERE, WE'RE GOING TO SHARE SOME
TIPS ON HOW TO NAVIGATE
MORTGAGE AND PROPERTY TAX
PAYMENTS DURING
