building a better bay area for a safe and secure future, this is abc7 news. >> we are now making public the guidelines for a nbe >> more than just takeout. the changes coming to the local restaurants, and it's going to look a lot different the next time you go out for dinner. good afternoon. i'm kristen sze. >> and i'm larry beil. let's start with the headlines. house speaker nancy pelosi unveiling a new $3 trillion coronavirus relief package today that is set for a friday vote. if it goes through, this would be the largest relief package in history. and could this be a prelude of what's coming for the bay area? los angeles county has issued a stay-at-home order that is likely going to be extended for the next three months. yes, we're talking 90 days. the california state university system announcing today that it's going to hold almost all of its classes for the fall 2020

semester online. 4 of the 23 campuses happen to be in the bay area. let's start with governor newsom here issuing strict and detailed guidelines today for restaurants, malls, and offices once they are actually allowed to reopen. it's not going to be anything like what you're accustomed to. we're in a whole new world now. abc7 news anchor dan ashley live in the newsroom with more. hi, dan. >> hi, larry. you're right. clearly, we are not going back to the way it was. it is the new normal. the governor announced the new statewide guidelines at his new news conference today. keep in mind just because we have these new guidelines doesn't mean we can start making restaurant reservations. we're a long ways still from that. the final decision on reopen willing be up to the state -- not to the state, but to each california county. and here in the bay area, we are just not there yet. >> to date we are now making public the guidelines a number of other industries in this state, including the restaurant industry. remember, restaurants, many of

them open for takeout, but this would allow patrons to start coming back in these counties that have conditions that afford this. we are also on a statewide basis making it clear that mlsnd just traditional enclosed malls, but strip malls and those outlet malls can be opened for pickup. but one can choose a region like the bay area, the six counties can choose to be a little bit more prescriptive and restri restrictive. parts of southern california, l.a. and others the same. >> the first reopenings will likely be in rural counties, obviously with much lower infection and exposure rates. restaurants in the bay area and los angeles will likely be closed much longer. here are some of the guidelins. guests and visitors should be screened for symptoms upon arrival, asked to use hand sanitizer, and bring and wear a

face covering when not actually eating or drinking. guests would be encouraged to make reservations and order in advance. restaurants will be asked to provide disposable or digital menus. tables will not be preset. instead, guests would only get napkins and tableware as needed. so it's not just sitting there. and the tables will need to be six feet apart or have plexiglas barriers. all together the state had 12 pages of guidelines and find more information at abc7news.com. it's a very complicated and involved process, larry, and we're just in the beginning stages. >> yes. and it seems to change almost every day. but we heard the governor mention malls, which have been crippled by what's happened here. was he talking about all mall stores? >> no. and they're going to stay crippled for some time to come, sieeate so myeople ervi gng

needing a haircut and that kind of stuff. we're still a ways from that. pickup will be allowed at stores that are allowed to reopen. so no browsing around the store. you can't just wander around. the stores will be required to screen employees for symptoms and customers will be encouraged to wear face covers, and of course maintain social distancing at all times. just the beginning stages, trying to figure out how much risk we can follow rate and what cost reopening the state will present in terms of health risks to californians. larry? >> all right. thank you, dan. so meantime dr. sarah cody updated the santa clara county of supervisors earlier today on why the county cannot move into stage 2 of the governor's reopening plan. she had some pretty strong and alarming words in describing what would happen. >> the condition conditions really haven't changed in our county. we don't have -- we don't suddenly have herd immunity. well don't suddenly have a vaccine. we have exactly the same conditions that we've had in

march. so tha i eup would see a brisk return of cases, hospitalizations, and a brisk return of deaths. >> santa clara countyea. with well over 2,000 cases. at one point it had the most in california until the outbreak hit los angeles. america's top infectious disease expert issued a warning to the senate today about the dangers of reopening the economy too soon. >> i feel if that occur, there is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you may not be able to control, which in fact paradoxically will set you back not only leading to some suffering and death that could be avoided, but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery. >> dr. anthony fauci and other top administration officials testified before a senate health committee today.

fauci says at least eight vaccines are in clinical development right now, but it would be optimistic to think any would be ready by late fall or early winter. national geographic is out with a data-driven map showing regions of the country where covid-19 cases and deaths rose and fell over the last week. the interactive map gives viewers a sense of whether their county is on an upward or downward trajectory. one of the indicators being used to decide how long the stay at home restrictions are being kept in place. the teal color means a downward trajectory while the reddish color means more cases. six of the nine bay area counties are trending down. and you can access this map on abc7news.com. abc7 news committed to building a better bay area. the coronavirus pandemic is dramatically changing how we live, and we want to help you focus on a better tomorrow. so we're looking at four main areas, your health, the economy, the changing workplace, and right now we're going to focus on education and how distance

learning is changing the school day for everybody involved. the california state university system is the first to formally announce it is cancelling all in-person classes in the fall. those will instead be taught online. the announcement came on the same day that you heard dr. anthony fauci telling congress the idea of having treatments available or a vaccine to facilitate the reentry of students in the fall is something of a bridge too far. abc7 news education reporter lyanne melendez with the story. >> san francisco state is one of 23 campuses that make up the california state university system. that's 500,000 students. chancellor timothy white and the board of trustees thought of bringing people together in close proximity amid the coronavirus and concluded that that approach sadly just isn't in the cards now. today appearing before congress, dr. anthony fauci was asked how university presidents would navigate reopening schools. >> even at the top speed we're

going, we don't see a vaccine playing in the ability of individuals to get schi fauci did not recommend cancelling in-person classes, but instead said that testing will likely play more of a role in helping schools reopen safely. a concept shared by president trump's testing czar. >> we expect there to be 25 to 30 million point of care tests per month available. it is certainly possible to test all of the students. >> the uc system said it will make key decisions in mid-june. in the meantime, they've come up with three scenarios. one, full remote instruction in the fall. scenario two, in-person with certain restrictions. and this third and most unlikely, campus operations will largely return to normal. some other colleges are already anticipating starting in-person classes in the fall. one of them is purdue university.

>> we'll be testing people and tracing those who do prove to have caught this infection. >> dr. fauci did acknowledge that the college situation will vary from region to region, depending on the outbreaks reported. lyanne melendez, abc7 news. >> all public school students in san francisco can expect to get a wellness check call from the school district. san francisco unified says it plans to contact every one of its 54,000 students' families to conduct wellness checks. staff members are reaching out to families that haven't been in contact with -- or they haven't been in contact with since the shelter-in-place order went back into effect in march. for the second day this week, tesla employees are back to work at the company's fremont plant, despite breaking rules set by alameda county's public health to shelter in place still. abc7 news reporter kris reyes with the confrontation that continues to escalate. kris? >> good afternoon, kristen. well, it's been busy here at the

tesla plant with cars coming and going all afternoon. at one point we even saw two food trucks go inside, all sure signs that the plant is up and running again. now how do employees feel than? well we don't know. most of them have been tight-lipped. and private property starts at those lights, and the security is very tight. now elon musk tweeted yesterday that he was inside at the production line and waiting to be arrested. we don't know if he's back to work again today. it's been 24 hours since he's tweeted about this issue, but this morning the president did tweet out his support. the president tweeted this morning california should let tesla and elon musk open the plant now. kit be done fast and safely. alameda's county health department sent this letter to tesla on monday, informing the company that it is in violation of the health officer's order by engaging in work beyond minimum basic operations. we rea alameda county's sheriff's office. no word on whether they will

enforce the health officer's order with citations or arrests. musk tweeted on monday that he is on the production line, even writing if anyone is arrested, i ask that it only be me. at the county's board of supervisors meeting, they only said this. >> i would like the thank supervisor haggerty for his leadership in officiating the differences between tesla and the county. thank you so much for representing us so distinguishly, supervisor haggerty. >> at the meeting, supervisors voted on retaining outside counsel to address tesla's lawsuit against the county. supervisors were not available for comment. one employee willing to speak up as he left the plant had this to say. >> i'm happy to come back to work. i think we are very well prepared. i mean, i spent the last couple of weeks making sure the social distancing is in place. we are following all the cdc protocols. and doing the best we can. >> now alameda county public health did get back to me this morning say they have received

tesla' setlan and they are reviewing it before making a decision on how to respond to the company's reopening. i also just received a phone call from the mayor of fremont. she said she is confident that no citations or arrests will be made today, that both sides will continue to negotiate and work together. live in fremont, i'm kris reyes for abc7 news. >> all right, kris, thank you. >> kris, thank you. privacy concerns as we start heading back to work. can you be required to return to work? and what health information can your bosses force you to share? we've got some answers coming up next. and it's not just restaurants. what other businesses are doing right now to get ready for returning customers. i'm spencer christian. there is still some isolated showers dancing around the bay area skies. i'll have the accuweather

shutdown and returning to work can be stressful, making offices and stores safer for employees to return to will also be challenging due to privacy concerns. some laws make off limits specific health questions. abc7 news reporter david louie joins us live to look at this legal minefield. david? >> well, reopening any business or office from small to large is going to involve new procedures. now some may seem deeply personal, but it's all pat of making the workplace safe. it might be a simple questionnaire, possibly a temperature check. in this era of privacy concerns, companies are turning to consultants and legal experts to determine what questions they ask. >> the employer can ask certain questions that would not necessarily be entitled to ask more than is needed to make the appropriate determination. >> hillary winedall says screening is important to determine an employee and visitors alike have been ill or

expose to someone with the coronavirus. it may seem invasive, but the goal is to minimize the risk of spreading infects at work. labor groups have been collaborating with employers on these protocos. >> we want to work with employers and work with health officials to ensure that workplaces are safe and part of the way to do that is with appropriate screening. >> health officials have identified people with underlying conditions are at greater risk, conditions such as diabetes and compromised immune systems. under the americans with disabilities act, accommodations must be made. but can an employer ask you -- >> it's if an employer wants to volunteer information, it's a different story. >> reporter: lori con stan zoe is an advocate in san jose. she and others say it's an a balancing act to make the workplace safe and accommodate special needs without violating

privacy. both employers and employees have right, but workers may have an advantage. >> i think the courts and the injuries in particular are going to be very different, you know, moving forward, having gone through this. and i think they're going to be very sympathetic to employees who may have been forced to work in unsafe conditions. >> now in addition, contact tracing is a new area that also has privacy concerns. that's why mobile phones can be used over bluetooth to track who you're interacting with, who might be infected that kind of privacy is still being debated. we're live, dave louie, abc7 news. all right. time for consumer news. let's get to 7 on your side's michael finney with a look at today's headlines. hi, michael. >> hey there, you guys. great, great deal going on today. let's begin in the house where

nancy pelosi announced a new $3 trillion aid package that is expected to be voted on by this friday in the house. the new package includes $1200 payment in direct aid to individuals and allows a household to collect as much as $6,000. the bill also keeps unemployment checks from the federal government of $600 a week going into next january. there is also housing assistance that would help pay rents and mortgages as well as hazard pay fund for essential workers. senate republicans say they really won't even look at the bill until next month. consumer advocates are calling on airlines to return the money of passengers who have had flights canceled or who canceled their flights because of the coronavirus. many passengers have only been offered vouchers for future flights. the transportation department has already ordered the airlines to pay up. no word if there is a change from the airlines. stuck at home and need a snack fix? pepsi company may soon have you covered.

the company has launched a pair of websites that offer consumers delivery of lays, chee-tos, gatorade, all the important stuff and more. the idea is why go out shopping for snacks when they can bring them to you and it will be safer and you'll get fresh from the company itself. larry? >> where is my chee-tos, michael? where are the chee-tos? crisis. >> i'll see they get in the studio. >> it will have to be a friday's free stuff one of these days. >> there you go. >> all right. thank you, michael. the california dmv expanding its virtual offerings so people can avoid an in-person office visit. that includes vehicle titleaner titles or licenses. if there is an in-person service that you really need, the dmv recently reopened 25 field offices following deep cleanings and development of new

protocols. kristen, i never thought i'd look forward to going to the dmv, but just being able to get out of the house and go somewhere, do something would be welcome relief. >> i know, what a world, right in the dmv. get me there. all right. hey, spencer, i know. i don't know if i can get too excited about today. it's kind of cool, a little dreary, but i know some folks do like it. >> you described it perfectly. i've been waiting all day to get out for a brisk walk, hoping for sunshine. now that i'm here ready to do the weather report, the sun is shining more brightly than before. perhaps i'll get out there after the newscast and take a walk. here is look at what's happening on our live doppler 7. you can see that although we're in sort of a showery pattern, conditions quiet. it is still quite breezy with surface wind speeds ranging from 15 to almost 30 miles per hour across the bay area. and as kristen pointed out, it's

cooler than average. 60 degrees in san francisco right now. 68 in oakland. we've got mid- to upper 70s at redwood city, and 60 degrees at pacifica. on we go to other readings right now. mid-60s at santa rosa, petaluma, napa, and concord -- livermore, rather. concord 67 and fairfield at 70 degrees. and as we look across the embarcadero, these are our forecast features. there is still a chance of more scattered and isolated showers tonight through tomorrow. minor warming will occur on thursday and friday, but more rain will arrive over the weekend. so we're not yet into a typical may pattern. storm impact scale indicates that the current system that we're calling our storm ranks 1 on the storm impact scale. the storm of light intensity through tomorrow. begin, we can expect more isolated showers and occasionally breezy conditions. forecast animation shows that overnight, late tonight conditions will be pretty quiet and mainly dry. but other waves of showers will develop before the morning commute begins tomorrow.

and after 5:00 a.m., notice a batch of showers coming in around mid morning. may contain some isolated downpours there. that's going to weep through and produce wet weather in and late tomorrow afternoon we'll see the system breaking up giving way to dryer conditions. although an isolated shower or two can linger tomorrow night into thursday. rainfall estimates by 8:00 tomorrow evening. we expect most locations to have received only a few 100s of an inch of rain. the north bay, a chance of some locations getting a tenth of an inch or more. upper 40s to low 50s. highs tomorrow, upper 50s at the coast to about 60. mid- to upper 60s around the bay shoreline, and mainly upper 60s inland. on thursday, it will be slightly milder. we'll get a minor warm-up on friday under sunnier skies. high temperatures approaching 80 degrees in the warmest inland locations. but temperatures will start to drop as we go to the weekend. here is the accuweather

seven-day forecast. after the minor warming, cloudier skies over the weekend. rain is expected to arrive late saturday and continue through sunday with maybe even a lingering shower in through monday morning. we're still waiting for may weather to arrive, although may is almost halfway over. larry and kristen? >> yeah, not much more time left to wait. thank you, spencer. restaurants hit hard by the pandemic closures. just ahead, we'll hear from the iconic alice waters about the future of

that could mean an increase byin energy bills.. you can save by using a fan to cool off... unplugging and turning off devices when not in use... or closing your shades during the day. stay well and keep it golden. the hospitality industry has been hit hard by the pandemic. east bay chef alice waters joined a virtual event today, talking about how the industry has responded to those who need help. she singled out chef jose andres and his central world when the grand princess docked to help feed quarantined passengers. >> he knew who to call. he called bon appetit.

he knew he needed to call in the san francisco bay area. and he did it and he got what he needed because the cruise but his example is admiral. >> well, waters says the hospitality industry won't be broken by the pandemic because people are in to it give to others and to cook for others, and that doesn't go away. it's said everything old is new again, and that's proving true during this unprecedented time. mel's drive-in san francisco is offering car hop service at its locations on geary boulevard and lombard street. it's a perfect way to attract passengers while abiding by social distancing guidelines. the grandsons of mel himself came up with the idea after recently looking at some old photos showing car hops. >> people who used to come in the '50s and '60s and '70s, and we were all coming back and

saying oh, wow, what a great tile and they're bringing their kids. they're all having a ball. having a blast at it. >> gabriel mendez says the transition has been easy, thanks to the large parking lots there. some east bay volunteers were thanked for their hard work today with pizza. u.s. bank donated 200 peases to people who volunteered through agencies like meals on wheels, white pony express, st. vincent de paul, coco kids and monument crisis center. the pizzas were handing out in a drive-through during lunchtime today in concord. and there will be a military tribute tomorrow for first responders and health care workers in california. four f-15 fighter jets with the our national guard out of fresno will honor those in the front lines. they'll do a statewide flyover. you see the math here when the 144th fighter wing shows the path the jets will take. beginning in the central valley, they'll fly over the richmond/oakland area around

10:43 a.m. and head to san jose about 10:56. synchronize your watches. okay. getting back to work, but for some work is going to look a lot different. the union city barbershop making changes. plus, helping the homeless. the changes being made in san francisco. we'll dig a little we are the thrivers. women with metastatic breast cancer standing in the struggle. hustling through the hurt. asking for science not sorrys. our time for more time - has come. living longer is possible and proven in women taking kisqali plus fulvestrant or a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor. kisqali is the only treatment in its class with proven overall survival results in 2 clinical trials. helping women live longer with hr+, her2- metastatic breast cancer. kisqali was also significantly more effective at delaying disease progression fulvestrant alone.

building a better bay area for a safe and secure future. this is abc7 news. >> a union city barber and nail shop is busy building a covid-19 safe environment. owner renee smith took us inside to show us how she plans to get back to work like never before. melanie woodrow has the story. >> manicurist renee smith is

taking matters into her own hands. >> we're scraping and grinding to get this together. >> smith owns d & r barber and nail shop in union city. >> covid is real. we're not talking about a nail fungus that you can go to a doctor and get a pill and it's gone in 90 days. >> she says she saw the writing on the wall and began building these part tirns. >> it actually has three sides. it has a cutout here where your hand goes through. it comes down to here. the kleins still would be requested to wear a mask. >> on the barbershop side, her husband has been building these partitions as well. >> as you can see, it's tagged there. the flex glass will go up that high. the client sitting in the chair will still be able to see their surroundings, still have a social atmosphere because that's what barbershops really are. >> last week governor gavin newsom shocked many in the beauty industry when he

announced what he said was the origin of the first community covid-19 case in california. thinking whole thing started in the state of california, the first community spread in a nail salon. >> smith said she's received no direction from the city or state on how to prepare to reopen. >> no one told me to build. this no one told me to build this partition. and i knew covid wasn't going anywhere. i wanted to reopen with safety. not just safety for the clients, safety for my employees. there are so many things that are so simple that we could do in this industry to get back to work. >> today the professional beauty corporation of california announced a lawsuit against governor newsom and others to open salons now. >> the soon they're this state can regulate something so we can all go back to work, the better it's going to be for so many people. >> in absence of being able to practice their profession openly and safely soon, smith says she believes stylists, barbers and manicure is will resort to house calls to earn a living, a

practice she says could be more risky. melanie woodrow, abc7 news. yet another call today for san francisco mayor london breed to house the homeless in hotel rooms to reduce the being infected by the coronavirus. >> the most vulnerable are being left behind to face the pandemic with little protection for themselves and communities they are a part of. >> a coalition of socialist, religious and civil rights activists demanded that mayor breed house all of san francisco residents in need in hotels or by immediately seizing empty dwellings. last month a board of supervisors passed an ordinance allowing the city to lease 8200 hotel rooms. the mayor, though, has yet to enforce it saying that room number is too high. the demonstration took place pe encampment for about 90 tents with room for the homeless to social distance. residents could be moved into the new encampment as early as tomorrow. with more on the issue is abc

news contributor phil matier. phil, what have you heard about the encampment and reaction from neighbors? >> well, the neighbors are the asian art museum and the san francisco public library. and from what i'm hearing, the asian art museum is not too happy about their newfound neighbors, but they are cooperating with trying to move them at least off the property and into that site where you saw where the squares were marked off for the various tents. but larry, i have to tell you, i talked with police in the neighborhood. i talked with other people working with the homeless, and some of this boils down to numbers. we are talking about spaces there that may can accommodate 50 or more tents. maybe 100 people. but there are over 300 tents in the blocks around there in the tenderloin. and if you do the math, even if you fill this up, you still have a long way to go. and it's taken a while just to get this far. so we have the pandemic concerns. we have the homeless concerns. and we have the clock ticking away on yet a problem that is still while we have plans for solving it has yet to be

implemented in a way we can actually see a solution happening. >> all right. now earlier this hour, we talked about new guidelines for reopening local businesses and reaction from those businesses. what's the general sentiment that you're hearing? >> it's a tough business. restaurants. it's a tough business small retail. when you're told you can open up, but with these rules, the good news is you can open up maybe, but the rules might sink you as well. they're talking about the idea of checking customers for symptoms or taking their temperature, of having only half as many tables available. larry, you go into restaurants, i go into restaurants. a lot of times when you talk with the owner, they're barely getting by as is. there is also a question out there that is about the customers themselves. how many are actually going feel comfortable going back to a restaurant at this point? so even if you do accommodate this, which is going to be strange because one of the requirements is that you keep a mask on, i'm really not sure how you're supposed to pete ea tod t

going on. maybe you take a break from it. it's still something to be worked out. they do have time. all of these recommendations we see coming out of the state remember have to be cleared by the county. and the counties in the bay area have been going slower and more stringent than the states. we'll see how it works out. they'll survive. i'm not sure what shape they'll be in or how many are going to be there. >> well, i want to follow up on your point about the counties, because each county can set their own guidelines for reopening. there is some obvious advantages of that in communities that have few cases. but it gets really confusing with different rules all throughout the state. and you just don't know from day to day or county to county what the rules are. >> or how long they're going to be in play. for example, los angeles today at a hearing, it was brought up that they could be under stay at home until july. that's three more months. and so you're sitting there going okay, from county to county, how long are we going to be there, and the second one is

like you said, the rules go from county to county as well. with the counties actually having -- if their rules are stricker than the states, yes, larry, it's very, very confusing. for some of these small bi businesses they're saying wait a second, if i'm a florist, i can have it outside, but clothes i can't. i can do curbside business if i'm a bookstore but in san francisco i can't. i would definitely say there is a confusion gap going on as we try to move on to the next level. and part of that is just simply driven by the fear by county officials within their own area that this virus will come back or could come back, and how are they going to shut down again if they've allowed these various openings. yes, it's a county by county, almost down to business by business, case by case situation. >> and it's very complicated. thank you, phil. you can read phil's column in "the san francisco chronicle" every sunday. and a new one coming out tomorrow on wednesday. look forward to it.
