some cases than what previously existed and dr. cofax said if i'm going to get covid anyway. it's a difference being home every day or being in a hospital on a respirator where you can't breathe and this is real and it's hard to understand when you don't complooeld see it, but in some cases they can't talk where in this past year and a half, there have been people who died who have not been able to have funerals. when we think about those sorts of things, how can we not do our part to get better, to get vaccinated to make sure we're protecting one another.

to make sure we're protecting our children because they can't get vaccinated. so why are we here today? well, part of it is we're taking our steps around vaccinations just a little bit further and starting august 20th, you will need proof of vaccination in businesses for your customers in high contact areas like bars, restaurants, clubs, theaters, entertainment venues. indoor gyms and fitness and large indoor events with more than a 1,000 people. by october 13th, employees at these establishments must be vaccinated as well. all of the employees need to show proof of vaccination by october 13th to their employer. now, to be clear, this will not

include people or kids who are under the age of 12 because they can't get vaccinated. so what we don't want folks to think is a family of four that you can't go to a restaurant, you can. because we know that your children cannot be vaccinated and will not have the ability to show proof, but the parents will need to. and, this does not impact those who are coming to pick up to-go orders. a lot of folks who do the deliveries. so this won't impact that. as i said, why are we doing this? it's to protect the workers. it's to protect kids. it's to protect those who can't get vaccinated. it's to make sure we don't go backwards. it's to make sure that i never have to get up in front of you and say i'm sorry we just re-opened and now the city's closed again because we are

seeing too many people die. so to find out information about getting vaccinated go to sf.gov/vaccinated. you can call if you have any questions or need additional information, but this is an important step towards our recovery. i saw on the news hamilton just opened and people were there with smiles on their faces. underneath the mask, i saw the high cheekbones. i know you guys know what that looks like and it felt good. i don't know about you but when i went out to asia sf, the

women who performed there to be out in a city, to go to a restaurant, to see people again, there was a time we could not do this, so if we want to continue down this path if we want to make sure people are healthy to make sure we're in a good place as a city from a public health perspective so that our economy can really recover to its fullest extent, then we all have to do our part. we need to get vaccinated. we need to make sure that we are respectful to the businesses that ask us to put on our mask, or to produce your vaccination cards. we need to continue to have grace as we deal with one of

the most and count your blessings and let's make sure it isn't anyone else in the future because that's what this is about. making sure that now that we have a vaccine that we take full advantage of it because that's going to make the difference for us. and i want to thank a couple of folks here joining us including rodney fong from the san francisco chamber. thank you for being here. sharky laguana, thank you for your work and advocacy. thank you. and we have a couple of other folks joining us.

i think ben blyman is going to say a few words representing the bar owners here today. you know, it was not -- asia sf is somewhat like a bar. it's a bar, performance, food, they have it all. so it's like the perfect bar space where you get everything. anyway, ben is here to talk a little bit about that. mary ellen carol is here from the department of emergency management to answer any questions. and, i think um, who else is here? like i said, it was a long night. and, right now, i'm going to call up dr. grant cofax to talk a little bit about the specifics of our health order, what the plans are and just thank you all so much for being here and thank you all for continuing to do your very best to comply with these very complicated sometimes numerous health orders, but they will keep us safe and they will save

lives. thank you so much. well, good morning everyone. and thank you, mayor breed, for your steadfast leadership. as we continue to navigate covid-19 as a city. and thank you, janet, and visuvio for your important efforts as we recover from this pandemic. and i want to thank our acting health officer who worked hard on these orders and for director marry ellen carol for your ongoing partnership in this response. the business community has been an important partner in our efforts ever since the early days of the pandemic which is now well over a year and a half. from capacity limits to masking requirements to everything in between, you have responded and adapted to the many new ways of doing business throughout. and, for that, we thank you.

i look out at all the new outdoor dining pots and walk-ups these days and i'm so pleased to see the way san francisco has adapted and come bang to life. even in just the last few months. the difference is palpable. our ability to adapt, change and respond will service well because even as we beat back this disease. we also know that covid-19 will be with us in some capacity for the foreseeable future. we are now in a new phase of the pandemic. and even as we see a surge of cases, we have the powerful tool to fight this disease and keep ourselves and each other safe. the vaccines. let's use them. the updates to our safer return together health order are designed to make sure we can continue to keep businesses open and enjoy our lives in san

francisco safely even as we face the delta variant and other variants to come where people are at close range. breathing heavy indoors. it's simply common sense. it makes sense to require vaccinations in indoor settings where food and drink is served like restaurants and bars and where aerobic exercises happen in gyms and fitness establishments and where many people gather like at indoor venues of a thousand people or more. we believe we will continue to make a major difference in lowering the spread of covid-19 with the common sense solution of vaccines. the vaccines continue to work remarkably well especially and dramatically lowering the risk of hospitalization and death from covid-19. the vaccines are our armor.

they are our life jackets. they are parachutes. d.p.h. launched a vax to you campaign last week that will bring a mobile vaccination team to your home or business if you have at least five people ready to get the vaccine. we ask businesses to please take advantage of that and you can go to sf.gov/vaxtoyou for more information. you can continue to get the vaccine from your health care provider or at a farmee or many of our drop-in sites across the city. we are also ready and in hand to have the new tools to

implement the new vax even requirements. while today's announcement applies to these specific kinds of business, we also encourage all businesses in the city to do their part and require their employees and patrons to get vaccinated as soon as possible. for anyone who is on the fence about getting vaccinated or hasn't made the time, we very much hope that the incentive of eating at your favorite restaurant in san francisco or grabbing a drink will remove any barriers that you may have for getting vaccinated. the vaccine is safe, effective, and appointments are readily available. and, just a reminder, that even if you've already had covid-19, we in the city strongly recommend that you get fully vaccinated. thank you, and, with that, i'd like to introduce ben blyman, head of the san francisco's bar owner's alliance and an early leader in requiring

vaccinations at bars and encouraging others to join. ben, thank you. >> thank you. first of all, i'd like to say happy birthday to mayor breed. happy birthday. second of all, i just want to thank mayor breed for her leadership throughout the pandemic. for many of us, it's the worst year and a half of our professional lives and i can't say how grateful we are to have somebody in the highest leadership of san francisco who actually cares about us and doesn't just help us when it's politically expedient to do so. time and time again the mayor's shown she truly cares about our issues and is willing to go to the mat for us. thank you for that. i just wanted to call that out. about three to four weeks ago, the san francisco bar owners started to notice alarming cases of break through infections with staff members of ours. these are vaccinated individuals working in bars who

suddenly were coming down with covid, thankfully, none of the cases were serious. there were no hospitalizations but it was enough to give us pause and have a robust conversation. in that conversation, three things came up that i noticed and it was a very robust conversation. one was how scared we were for the health of our staff members. specifically, we have a lot of staff members who have young children. we have a lot of staff members who take care of elderly parents and the idea they could bring something home and put them in danger was scary for us and real. we have a sacred obligation to our staff members. we know that. we feel that way, and that was really first and foremost in our minds. the second was the impact it was having on our businesses. if somebody comes down with covid, even if they don't go to the hospital, they're out for at least ten days and we're having a staffing shortage already across the u.s., so this has a serious impact on

our ability to do business. i myself had to close a bar for a night because my bartender got covid at a different job of his and we were unable to find coverage. and the third thing that came up was the frustration that we felt as a community. for the first year of the pandemic, we were fighting an uncontrollable virus. it could be sort of managed, but it was kind of out of control and we kind of had the sense of fatalism. but that was no longer the case. and the bar owners were veryis a sievous and it was something that came up and we floated the idea what if we just don't let them inside. after a poll we did, over 80% of our membership responded that they would like to go through with that and they declared we would only allow

vaccinated individuals to hang out indoors at our establishments. in actual practice, it was a little bit of a nothing burger. if anything, almost every single person was happy about t. they were thrilled. they were thankful. they were safer. the pushback we got was online from a bunch of remarkably right wing trolls whose trolling was so bad hopefully i could teach them about how to troll correctly. that said, we've gone through with it. it works. it's helping to decrease exposure to our staff members. we know that unvaccinated individuals are eight times more likely to contract and spread coronavirus and we need to make sure that we keep them from exposing our staff and their families as much as we can. even though there wasn't much pushback, we still kind of felt like we were on an island as a group. we didn't do it thinking other

people would follow. we didn't do it to change hearts and minds. if hearts and minds do change, that's fantastic. but we did to to protect our staff and families. but the fact that san francisco is doing this now is a huge thing for us. we're not alone anymore. the city is making a bold statement if you want to participate in our society fully, if you want to be able to cough into the mouths of other people around you in closed tight areas, you must be vaccinated indoors. the fact that we're not alone is a huge benefit to us and i thank the city of san francisco for going through with this. it's a giant deal for us so thank you very much, thanks for having us. >> thank you, ben. and, thank you to all the bar owners in san francisco. thank you to the vasuvio and janet in particular for your leadership and work and advocacy. as i said, the bars did this a couple weeks ago and the city

is following their lead which i think is truly remarkable. the example that they're setting what we're doing to keep people safe is most important at this time. and, with that, i'll open it up to questions from the press.

hi everyone. i'm san francisco mayor london breed and i'm joined here today by dr. grant colfax. and thank you rodney fong from the san francisco chamber of commerce. and we are at e.m.s. pilates studio and this is a place we wanted to come here today and as of today, august 20th, the new health order goes into effect with bars indoors and gyms and studios like this are required to show proof of vaccination. and i want to start by saying

this isn't about punishment. this is about trying to get our city to a better place. and it could be a lot worse if we've never even had a vaccine. and so yesterday, i went to the philmore western edition community, the place where i grew up and ms. cook, she and i attended the same church. i've known her my whole life. her son is a little bit older than me. he got sick. he refused to get vaccinated. within a week or so's time, he was in the hospital and sadly passed away and ms. cook talked about how and how when our son came to see her, she was worried because she has had the vaccine, but she has underlying health conditions and was concerned about her health. she loves her son but she

begged him to get vaccinated and the pain and hurt is really something that others are experiencing because what we're seeing was about 117 people in the hospital now when we were just not too long ago at less than ten people in the hospital. what we're seeing, we're, of course, very concerned about and we're especially worried about our children who are under the age of 12 who can't even get vaccinated. and so this requirement again, it's not about a punishment, it's really about a chance to try and get us moving in the right direction and keeping people safe. in san francisco, we have really been the model for the rest of the country. i'm really proud of the people here. we have 79% of san franciscans that are eligible to get the vaccine that have been vaccinated. so that is absolutely amazing and i'm really grateful, but there are more people that we

need to make sure get vaccinated. i'm tired of wearing masks. i'm tired of covid just like all of you. i'm tired of talking about covid, but just because we're tired of it, downtown mean it's tired of us and it's back here with its delta vengeance. what's interesting is i am getting more phone calls from people that i actually know that are getting covid. it's happening more regularly and in some cases, some of those people are actually vaccinated, i'm getting more phone calls from people who are telling me that their family member is in the hospital and they want to go see them and there's a whole other situation that happens as it relates to that and this is like nothing that i've experienced even throughout this 16 months of dealing with covid. so what's important now as we try to get to that finish line,

we keep talking about this light at the end of the tunnel, we're finally able to see one another again. we're finally able to go to restaurants and dine together and spend time with one another because during the pandemic, it was very difficult for us to do that and if we want to continue down that pads, as much as it's hard to continue to come out here and say i need you to do this, i need you to do that, i need you to do this, i don't want to keep saying that we need to implement health orders. >> i want us to be free to do the things we did before this pandemic existed. when i look at the data and what's happening in san francisco and other parts of the country. i think about what we need to do and our goal is to beat back this virus once again and that's why we're implementing this new health order. it goes into effect today, we are trying to do everything we can to reach out and support

businesses. we ask customers to comply with what businesses ask you to do. so, for example, we're asking for indoors to require the vaccination card and there's some restaurants who are choosing to do it for outdoors and if they ask you to show proof, please just comply. please, just comply with our health orders. it's not something that we're doing as a punishment and i just want to take us back just a little bit before i introduce dr. grant colfax, when this virus first hit san francisco or right before it first hit san francisco, a lot of us didn't know what was going on, how you would contract it, what's happening. we remember the ship that was stranded in the middle of the bay and everyone concerned and all the uncertainty and all the fear because we didn't completely know what was going on and over time, we not only found out what was going on, but there were concerns expressed about whether or not we'd have a vaccine, you know,

in the year or two and the fact that we have three options for vaccination has been absolutely incredible and dr. colfax will tell you about 1800 people that have been hospitalized since december onest of last year, only six of those people were vaccinated. so the whole point of these vaccines have a lot to do with keeping you out of the hospital. we're not saying you may not get covid. what we're saying is the difference between the sniffles and being home sick a few days and suffocating ending up in the hospital on a respirator and dying. that's what this is about. so we're here to announce these new health orders to ask people in san francisco to comply and to be understanding. we want to get back to the life that we once knew. i want to go to a concert. i want to go hang out with my friends and settings and not

worry about all these distancing requirements. i want to have a good time in san francisco and how do we get there? get vaccinated. get vaccinated so that we can continue to move forward and continue to make sure that san francisco is one of the safest cities as it relates to covid in the u.s. and, with that, i want to introduce dr. grant col fax to talk a little bit more about what is really going on. ladies and gentlemen, dr. grant colfax. >> good morning sxefsh thank you mayor breed for your continued leadership as we continue to work and reach out to the business community moving together during this pandemic. i want to acknowledge our key partners in had this audience including kate sofis. rodney fong president and ceo

of the chamber of commerce. it's great to see both of you and i want to thank tracy sill sylvester owner of this pilates studio. we know now covid is going to be with us for the foreseeable future. this is about the delta surge right now. it could be about the next variant fuelled search next. so getting vaccinated is so important. we're mott only worried about the suffering of this fourth surge, but we're also needing to do everything we can to keep the city as open as possible and continue our in-person learning with kids in school. and, today, requiring the proof of vaccination to serve food and drinks or indoor events as another step forward as we continue to address the pandemic. this is navigating our new

normal. we're here, d.p.h. is here to support businesses with the tools, signage, information, and other support to offer as we implement this order. and just a reminder that we will continue to send the vax to you team out to businesses to vaccinate five or more employees. that team has been busy. we asked businesses to take advantage of that. we will come to you and provide vaccines. in addition to implementing this order and i really also want to acknowledge dr. navina baba and dr. susan phillips on their work on implementing drafting the order and implementing the order, we've had a really busy week here at the department of public health. we have scaled up a new testing site, high volume testing site which can administer up to 500 tests a day with turn around time in 24 to 48 hours and we also issued a new health order requiring large health care

systems to provide testing within 24 hours for their patients and to turn those tests around within 48 hours and to report back to the health department on progress with regard to that. we've also implemented the cdc recommendation that immuno compromised people implement a third vaccine. and people take advantage of that at our many hospital clinics. our primary care clinics and drop-in centers for vaccination. our strategy continues to be to protect the most vulnerable due to covid-19 and, again, part of that is working with our business community to ensure that everybody has the opportunity who is eligible to get vaccinated, to protect our children under 12 who are not yet eligible to be vaccinated so that we can get through this surge together and be as ready prepared for what may be the next. thank you.

>> thank you, dr. colfax. i don't know about you, but i want to go to the movies and eat popcorn and have a drink when i'm in the movie theater. don't you think it's about time? let's get vaccinated so we can do that too. with that, i want to introduce kate sofis to talk a little bit about what we are doing to help support businesses during this time. >> thank you, mayor. thank you for your continued leadership and thanks to dr. colfax and our department of public health. as i stand here today, i deeply appreciate and recognize that so much of the responsibility to move us forward lies on the backs of our small businesses and the leadership of our small businesses and we're about to hear from one that i'm personally so proud of that we stand before today. we have always been a city that's been at the forefront of things in this country. and, it is no surprise to me

that we are stepping forward in advance of other cities and other communities and taking such an aggressive stance in trying to keep our community healthy and safe and so have these opportunities it's all what makes us want to be here to raise our children and live here and work here. i am proud as the head of the office of economic development. to make sure small businesses wherever they present in this community have the support they mead to be able to effectively implement this health order to

be able to properly implement this order. that includes signage. it includes training on how to check a vaccine card whether it's local or from other part of the country or from a visitor abroad. so i encourage all of you to go to that resource and then we have a wonderful team who are ready now to be able to work with any of our businesses or employees who have questions about how to comply with this order. point in time again, today, august 20th is the day when we were asking all customers who come into restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, places where you take off your mask to eat or drink or places like gyms and pilates studios where you leave your mask on but you are breathing more heavily, these are really the two circumstances that the science shows there's a high orising of transmission and that is why we are focusing on these businesses. but we stand at the ready and able.

i'm so proud of us as a city and, with that, i want to give the final comment here today to one of our very own businesses. i'd like to call up tracy, tracy sylvester who is the owner of the e.h.c. pilates. this is a business that has started for vaccine status. we are standing in front of 30 years and i want to recognize you for your accomplishment, your leadership, and, with that, you have the floor. >> hi everyone. my name's tracy sylvester. i first want to thank mayor breed. it's been a really rough year and a half, but we're standing here today with a team of people ready to serve and we just wanted to share our story. we have been rolling out the vaccination status requirements

today and with the leadership of the bar community that got together and decided to do this i think about a month ago, we really have been waiting in the wings. we tested systems in place to see how we would do it. we were talking to our customers, getting our staff prepared and so we can confidently walk into this new landscape together and i invite all the other business community members to join if you have any questions and want to know what it's been like here, we actually have had a tremendous response of support from all of our clients and our entire staff. we were almost being asked to do this and we were just again waiting for that full throated support of our leadership. it gives us a way to be able to take an act in the public health of the public health and make sure that we are all safe and we are about energy,

health, and strength and we are embracing this moment and invite the rest of our community to join us. [applause] >> thank you so much, tracy. and i've got to say thank you to the bar owners, to the restaurants and to e.h.s. and tracy and others because what i found out from talking to not only many of those people, but also many of their employees, what they were noticing was that some of their employees who were vaccinated were getting sick and they were concerned about being able to stay open. it has already been challenging to find employees to work at many of these establishments and this was just a step that they felt was needed. many of their employees expressed a desire to see it happen because i know there are folks saying how are small

businesses have enough to do? how are they going to implement this? it's just another thing that's added that's going to make things better in the long run and most people are willing to comply. and i want to express my appreciation because i'm sure many of you like going out to these places in the city and especially a lot of restaurants and i love what san francisco has become. the one good thing from the pandemic are these shared spaces where you can have dinner and hang out with your friends outside. even when it's freezing cold. we're used to this weather in san francisco. it's what we're used to as san franciscans and the fact is it has been great, but we're still in this pandemic. we still have work to do and we're still very much appreciative to each and every one of you for being apart of the solution. let's continue to get vaccinated. let's continue to encourage others. yesterday, i was holding a man's hand said i'm only going

to get vaccinated because you're holding my hand and i was like all right. and he was squeezing tight and he got it done. i know it took a lot of courage for him to do that and i get it. it's not easy. everyone who gets vaccinated, you're doing it not just for yourself, but you're doing it for your fellow san franciscans. and, please, support the health orders. we'll be out there monitoring, but most important, we'll be out there to educate people and to provide resources and support to ensure that there is compliance. this is not about punishment. this is about education. it's about helping to get our city through this pandemic and thank you all again so much for coming. [applause] >> and, we can do a few questions with the press. >> i really want to see health and safety too and some of what i'm

[inaudible] people vaccinated it still transmits the disease, but it mitt mitigates the disease. [inaudible] and people who are against the vaccine and, two, rapid testing at sites. [inaudible] and go see a doctor >> thank you for your question. i'm going to let dr. colfax talk about because they knows the latest of what's happening. >> so thank you for those questions. with regard to people who are vaccinated, we know people who are fully vaccinated can still contract covid-19. thankfully for the vast majority of those people, the symptoms will be mild to moderate. as you know, the cdc did determine people who are fully vaccinated can transmit the

virus. we're still waiting to determine how long they can transmit the virus and how much they can transmit it compared to people who are not fully vaccinated. that's the key piece. i think with regard to ongoing vaccine research. that's something that's being done and supported by the national institutes of health and cdc. these vaccines we have right now are really good. i can't comment on the nasal, any plausibility around a nasal vaccine. i will say we do have a one shot for people who don't want two shots. so that's great and we'll continue to see these vaccines in a very positive way as we learn more about the virus and variants. with regard to rapid test kits, we're very much supportive of people using those and supporting them. we're working with community organizations to distribute home test kits when possible and plausible and that's another tool that we have now to help get this pandemic under

control. we're encouraging people to get tested particularly if they've been exposed to covid-19 or, of course, who has any type of symptoms. >> and, i'll just say for the testing, we just opened another site at 7th and branding and soma and the whole point of having these testing sites are really to, we don't turn anyone away, but we try to make them available for people who may not have insurance and who employers require testing for whatever reason. if you're trying to get tested for your vacation, please contact your health care provider. we've also put forward some requirements from private health care providers to be, you know, just more responsive, faster with providing testing for people. really, we want you to focus on your health care provider if you have insurance, but especially for those who don't have insurance, we wanted to provide those options. i also know they sell these rapid test kits in a number of

pharmacies and so they are available as well. the tests that we provide is also free and we want to make sure people without insurance have access to testing. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> no i'm not. we have a plan in place. we have required at this time that everyone at least reports what their vaccination status is and we're talking about a very small number of people that have been suspended and we have been prepared for that. so we're not concerned about first responders, but we are not going to deviate from our requirement to ensure that every city employee is vaccinated because not only does it impact the people that they work with, it also impacts

the public that they work with. so we want to do our part as a city to protect the public and we will continue to take the appropriate steps necessary to do just that. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> so we have -- we do have a number of scheduled outdoor events and, for example, we know outside lands is coming up and we're working very closely with them and the goal is to require proof of vaccination for events that have 5,000 or more people in an outdoor environment and so we're working with the promoters for a number of these large scale events to put forth the appropriate plan to provide people. so they are well aware in advance before they attend the

event. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> no. you do not have to have a smartphone, you can have your actual vaccination card. some people will use a photo of their vaccination card. some people will upload it with the state system so they can show it's been verified. right now, we're not trying to get into micromanaging of what you show. we just want to make sure people get into the habit of showing proof and everything is contingent upon the data and what we start to see with the numbers and what happens in covid with san francisco and whether or not we take that a step further and require they be verified, but for now, we're doing it this way to make it as easy as possible for people in & those businesses. and the people that want to attend those businesses. >> reporter: [inaudible] >> well, you have been the

help. the press has been very helpful with communicating that. i think also i've noticed that people have already been asking for it. so i think that most people realize we're in a pandemic, we're still dealing with it, so it's a thing that people expect. so i think the word is getting out especially through the press. i think that's very helpful. i also think that businesses, when you sometimes book your reservation, they give you information about what their requirements are and even people when they book flights and you're starting to do things online, they're saying look at the requirements and there's a way to see what the requirements of an establishment are. so i think for the most part, you know, we're going to do our very best to get it out there and this is just many of the things we're trying to do as a possible solution to get things better. we'll be monitoring the numbers closely and revisit these policies if we see improvements. we can lift policies and make

changes. for now, this is just another thing we have to do. we're living with covid. san franciscans are resilient. we adapt. we keep moving. we're able to still go out and see one another like never before. so we'll keep doing what we can to get the word out. thanks everyone.

>> flyshaker pool was a public pool located on sloat boulevard near great highway. it operated from 1925 to 1971 and was one of the largest pools in the world. after decades of use, less people visited. the pool deteriorated and was demolished in 2000. built by herbert flyshaker, pumps from the pacific ocean that were filtered and heated filled the pool. aside from the recreational activities, many schools held swim meets there. the delia flyshaker memorial building was on the west side of the pool. it had locker rooms with a sun room and mini hospital.

in 1995, a storm damaged one of the pipes that flowed to the ocean. maintenance was not met, and the pool had to close. in 1999, the pool was filled with sand and gravel. in 2000, the space became a spot for the san francisco zoo. these are some memories that many families remember swimming at flyshaker pool.
