i want to thank dr. laura tyson from uc berkley and there's a lot of stakeholders in this big and small businesses labor unit want to thank all of them for being at the table and workers rights groups invaluable to the process they've been talking to folks in languages to make sure they understood what in the meant and nonprofit groups a very large number of hours committed i want to thank the number of nonprofits that came to the table that make sure that we were taking care of them as well their invaluable to the employment to san franciscans all in an effort to really try to get a consensus approach thank you to the coalition to the fair economy my the san francisco chamber of commerce. sometimes they maybe speaking times at the opposite ends but they came together with all of us to make sure our interests were united. a lot of hard work to build consensus in the city i'll be the first to say but i've been proud we've done so on a number of occasions whether this was pension reformer are or the housing trus

as laura said i'm dr. laura for the past 12 years i've served as medical director for hiv inclines i was at the highland over the past 12 years i've cared for many, many, many people with hiv and aids. most of them are poor, many of them are people of color and a fair number of patient in our incline is immigrants. the care we provide has helped our patients return to work and care for themselves and provide and care for their families h f has provided this care with little or no cost to the patient it has a printed out effect on the patient we serve in san francisco i love what i do and am grateful to provide those much needed services to the patient i've had an opportunity to serve. i had a chance to look at some of the documents there were a couple of things i want to address today. one was that some of the comments i felt were unfair and didn't reflect what t are h f does in san francisco. first it's the comment that that's a mega or cookie cutter it's not fair it's not highly profit it's a community health

my name is dr. laura core. and my question concerns secretary of state kerry's announcement of the $5 billion investment into an antiterrorism fund for the world. and i was wondering what your thoughts are on that if you see that as a way that america can kind of restate and reassert its capability for other countries. >> i haven't seen the details of really what he means by that. as i mentioned, i am a fan of having a full range of tools at our disposal. i chair the subcommittee that oversees special operations, so i am a big fan of working by, with and through others. i think that is what makes a lot of sense. the more capability we can develop in other countries, the less we have to go do ourselves. unfortunately, in a lot of cases we tie our own hands with restrictions that make it hard to work with others. two or three years ago i was in nigeria for example talking with them about what might be possible as far as u.s. military training of the nigerian military because of the restraints we put on ourselves

and it is this population laura's law is attempting to address by using a court order to get people into assisted outpatient treatment. curiously, as dr. leery also pointed out, there are very few requirements in laura's law as to forcing medication and enforcing people to engage in treatment. laura's law actually works because it relies on what's called the black robe effect. people, most people, are law-abiding and when faced with a court order will tend to engage in treatment. laura's law has been implemented fully in nevada county since the year 2008 and i would like just to run down some of the results that we have seen in nevada county and they have been stunningly successful. of those who are faced with court orders, actually over 50 percent engage in treatment voluntarily through an iterative judge. the judge works with them, they get somewhat better, they engage in a higher level of treatment and get even better so there's a feedback loop with the judge to help people get well. in nevada county since 2008 we have experienced many fewer days of rehospitalization. rehospitalization has gone down 64 percent. there has been a dec
