or 4.5%. the dow is now below the level it was when president trump took office. the s&p 500 slid 4.4%. nasdaq dropped 3.8%. the stock market isn't the only area where coronavirus has affected your savings. min michael finney is at home working with that part of the story. >> reporter: yeah. here is the question. have you filed for unemployment benefits? if you have here is how you speed up the process. unemployment claims in california increased 34% the week prior to the stay at home order in california. six bay area counties issued emergency orders on march 16th. the week ending march 14th, claims jumped from 43,385 to 58,208. those are the latest numbers just released. now expect those numbers to jump

more when the claim totals for this week are released it next week. if you haven't filed for unemployment recently there is no physical unemployment office to visit. filing online is your best bet and available practically 24/7. limited phone service is also an option but the way times can be discouraging. here is who is eligible for benefits. >> if you've lost your job or your house are reduced through no fault of your own and certainly is happening with a lot of people in this particular situation, you could be eligible for benefits. >> reporter: your employer must have contributed to the unemployment insurance program. gig workers could still be eligible through a prior job since benefits are based on 12 to 18 months of your earnings. you'll have to wait a minimum of two to three weeks for your first check. >> we are certainly having staff working overtime seven days a week. we are redirecting staff wherever possible that has that

unemployment insurance claim background. we are trying to pull some people out of recent retirement and continue to hire, thralthou new staff takes time to take up to speed. >> payments sent through the mail will be delayed by the time it takes to mail. so opt for the online option. we have learned the u.s. treasury department and the state have pushed back the tax filing and tax payment deadline until july 15th. however, if you're expecting a refund, don't wait until you can get that refund check early. that is what enrolled agent norman golden is doing. >> we are working on returns for those people who are getting refunds, especially now with a lot of layoffs. >> reporter: bottom line if the government owes you money, file right now. get that check on its way to you. if you owe the government money, well, you want to drag things out a bit.

remember, july 15th. >> michael, thank you very much. good advice. coronavirus has played a big role in changing our lives. that certainly applies to the asian american population experience an increase in discrimination. >> one abc 7 anchor decided was time to speak up and she shares part of her op-ed that appears in today's "chronicle." >> we all need b metastatic breast cancer is relentless, but i was relentless first. relentless about learning the first song we ever danced to. about teaching him to put others first. about helping her raise her first child. and when i was first diagnosed, my choice was everyday verzenio. it's the only one of its kind that can be taken every day. it gives us more time without cancer progressing. verzenio is the only cdk4 & 6 inhibitor approved with hormonal therapy that can be taken every day for postmenopausal women with hr+, her2- mbc. diarrhea is common, may be severe, or cause dehydration or infection.

at the first sign of diarrhea, call your doctor, start an anti-diarrheal, and drink fluids. before taking verzenio, tell your doctor if you have fever, chills, or other signs of infection. verzenio may cause low white blood cell counts, which may cause serious infection that can lead to death. life-threatening inflammation of the lungs can occur. talk to your doctor if you have new or worsening trouble breathing, cough, or chest pain. serious liver problems can happen. symptoms include tiredness, appetite loss, stomach pain, and bleeding or bruising. blood clots that can lead to death have occurred. tell your doctor if you have pain or swelling in your arms or legs, shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid breathing or heart rate, or if you are pregnant or nursing. my relentless reason: it's them. my choice with my doctor: it's verzenio. ask your doctor if everyday verzenio is right for your first treatment.

one of the big changes in the still. >> the changes and postponements and economic impact of the shutdown. it's massive. i mean, recent study by "the san francisco chronicle" and the associated press show that about 1 out of 7 people in the bay area is somehow impacted either lost their job or saw their hours cut back or, in some way economically impacted so far and only in the first week. and makes this upcoming week and weekend so critical for officials. >> phil, look ahead a little bit. we are seeing fairly impressive compliance it seems with the stay at home order everywhere i've seen and what we have seen around the bay area but that could intensify if we don't get full cooperation. i know that authorities are considering what other action might be necessary. >> they are. now, we have some businesses that haven't been complying and i think that you're going to see them shut down. but we, as a society, have managed to follow the rules. i think as well or even better than the officials expected. i talked to them off camera and

they said when we ordered the shutdown 100% stay at home just go out to the grocery store and needed things they were saying if people only did 75% to 80% of, it would be a success. overall goal is stem the spread. we can't stop the spread but stem it and keep it from boiling over and the goal and so far they feel successful but planning it to get hot out. san francisco the mayor sit down with 60 hotel managers in san francisco. they are booking 3500 rooms, about 1 out of 10 hotel rooms in san francisco for first responders who have long commutes to try to get home. if they have to stay in the city. for people who live in communals like three or four elderly in chinatown get them out and separate them. people may find themselves infected by not needing intensive care are getting rooms as well lined up. alameda county not so much. waiting to see what happens and

hospital rooms set unand ready to go. south bay they are taking precautions and may see a u.s. navy hospital ship pulling up here by the time it is done. it will be a critical week and weekend because the weekend they say will people continue to comrip or is the sun bringing them out and make it an unsafe situation? >> i think a lot of people are -- i think they assume that this may go on longer than just the three weeks. i've also heard friends comment to me i don't know how long -- how much the economy can take in terms of this. like how long can we go before things are completely devastated? >> they don't know that. i was talking with a san francisco comptroller today and he has to arms to get around the economic impact. 1 out of 7 already is affected. businesses will have to wait and see. right now, the officials and what they are, public officials, not private enterprise people. they are concerned with the public health and public safety. that is concern number one.

to get through what they predict could be the surge and either next week or the week after. that is their primary goal. as far as the economics go, that remains to be seen. as far as how long this goes, we are getting mixed messages. governor gavin newsome for example said parents should be prepared for school not coming back in session until summer or the ends of the year. a lot of educators saying let's not set off people worrying about that. we don't know how long it's going to be take. it's one thing to shut things down. it's another thing to start them back up. right now, we are in that period in between and they need as much cooperation as they can shorten many as soon as possible. >> we could have a nationwide shut downand see what happens with that curve in the weeks ahead. you talk about completely

freedsifreeds i -- freezing the economy. >> not there yet and want on a course not total gloom or doom or naive optimism we might have had in the past or neglect we weren't paying attention but it's interesting, dan. different parts of the country have different setups and different responses and it's ging to be very much up to the locals on how they adapt to this and how they get us through these weeks. the bottom line this came up fast and we don't have a lot of time with national ideas. a lot of this is you, me, the person next door. >> so true. thank you, phil, very much. you can read phil's columns in "the san francisco chronicle" every wednesday and sunday. coronavirus is having a dramatic impact on all of our lives and certainly true for the asian american population. many of whom are experiencing an increase in discrimination. abc7 investigator decided to speak up here she is reading a portion of her op-ed that appears in today's "the san francisco chronicle." >> burnout of being a broadcast

journalist was setting in and covering wildfires and mass shootings were taxing but the demands of keeping up on social media where information is traded at the speed of light was beginning to take its toll. what my purpose one day would be to chase what is trending like national pretzel day to get clicks and likes? the president wasn't making the job any easier coining the term fake news which was adopted by many and shouted out by strangers when i reported 2349 feel and then coronavirus happened. a lot of bad -- the 89-year-old grandmother who was brutally beaten on a playground and left to die. the empty soda can collector and humiliated and his recyclable stolen. the mom that was pistol whipped in and dragged in broad daylight and taken her purse with her money inside. they knew criminals were

targeting this population because of the language barrier. asians would be less apt to file police reports or speak out. as the daughter of immigrants from taiwan and hong kong i was raised to work hard and keep my head down and nose clean and not to cause controversy. but each story i reported, the fire burning in my gut to do more grew stronger. when the coronavirus outbreak began, the flames exploded into anger. friends were counted instances of being told to go back to your sick country or overhearing others accuse them of eating bats. the president of the united states and certain media outlet continued to use the cherm chinese viperus. prior to come to go san francisco i was the first asian american main anchor in charlotte, north carolina and florida's tampa bayary. replying to viewers who called me connie chung or asked in tweets i was made in china. the only person i had to stand up for was myself. with the coronavirus i had a chance to be an ally for the hundreds of thousands of people in the bay area.

and the millions across the globe facing even more blatant racism by telling their stories. the support from asian americans from around the globe who sent messages of thanks that finally someone was listening and fighting to give them representation in the mainstream media was overwhelming. this, in turn, empowered others to share their stories of injustice. even if it was confiding in me through a direct message on twitter, or sending a video through facebook, this was their way of speaking out. they were afraid to do it themselves or didn't have the audience. but i knew i could be their communication pipeline to the world. while the conversation around racism and coronavirus is happening, there is still a long way to go. thols shouts of fake news won't stop nor will the need to feed the best that is the world wide web but these days though issues don't feel so burdensome as i know my purpose as an asian american journalist. >> powerful, powerful words! if you'd like to read her entire

>> make no mistake the number is real and it's scary. >> reporter: as soon as the governor said it, everyone paid attention. >> as a nation state 40 million strong, we have been organized around an attack rate as we refer to it of about 56%, that the virus will impact about 56% of us. >> reporter: but if there is one story where you have to read past the headline, it's this one. so we want to make sure you hear exactly what the governor said right after that statement and why that number is important, but not as alarming as it sounds. so let's start with what he says right after. >> that number of in and of itself shouldn't be overly alarming. the vast majority of us, the majority of us won't have symptoms and will be perfectly fine. >> reporter: because many people who are covid-19 positive are either asymptomatic or have mild symptoms or need most hospitalization. the other thing to remember about this number which amounts to about 20 million people is that it's a worst-case scenario.

again, worst-case scenario. the bay area under a stay at home order. now the rest of the stay is too. we have all been social distancing. why is worst-case scenario important? because the government has to be ready for it. >> let me be precise. a number of that we have been using for the purposes of guiding our resource delivery and guiding our decision making. >> reporter: here is an example of that worst-case scenario would look like for hospitals. 20,000 people would need hospitalization. according to the governor, the state's hospital system can handle a surge of about 10,000 but not more than that. after that, you'll see the kind of collapse that we saw in italy. >> we are looking at a delta, a gap that requires about 10,000 -- well, 10,000 beds and 10,000 members of the community to staff those beds. and that is currently what we are up against. >> reporter: the big unknown is if what we are doing works what do those numbers look like? we don't know. but what we do know about this

number is that it's a projection from the best public health experts in the world using the best available data. it's the reason why we can project our curve to be somewhat in line with italy which has been the worst-case scenario so far. we can learn from those lessons. >> we have incredible access for you tonight into the coronavirus quarantine at travis air force base and into the crisis as it unfolded on the grand princess cruise. . dan noyes is catching up with a passenger whose voyage went terribly wrong. >> look at that. >> there you are. >> it's magic. >> suzanne is giving us inside look at travis air force base where 858 people are under quarantine for fear they contracted coronavirus aboard the grand princess cruise shp. >> ship. >> it's really hard. >> a cruise to hawaii surrounded great to her. after all what could go wrong?

>> girlfriend was golden gate and do you want to hashare my cabin? it's leaving from san francisco and we don't have to fly anywhere and drive up to the ship with all of our stuff and get on and we were having a blast! >> reporter: but as the ship departed, hilo, hawaii, the captain announced they would stop a stop in mexico and return to san francisco. a passenger on the trip before had died from coronavirus in placer county. >> that was this ominous, ominous time that we went, my goodness, what is really happening? >> reporter: all passengers confined to their cab bin. she watched a hospital helicopter drop test kits to the ship and some tested positive. >> those will to go a federally isolated place in california for isolation and testing. >> reporter: suzanne provided video herm last view of the ship as they headed off to quarantine
