grant colfax, director of health for san francisco. and thank you, mayor breed. today there are 1,013 san franciscans diagnosed with covid-19. 9,000 people in san francisco have been tested. sadly, 17 people have died of the disease. i send my condolences to their families, their loved ones, their friends and their community. there are 88 patients with coronavirus hospitalized across the city. and about 30% of them are in the intensive care unit. another 53 people are in the hospital who may have coronavirus and they are awaiting test results. our hospitalization numbers have been holding relatively steady for the past few days which is welcome news. but again, that could change at any time. especially as we begin to see expected outbreaks in the city, including potentially in vulnerable populations. as we reported last week, there was an outbreak of coronavirus at m.s.c. south, the city's largest homeless shelter. as of today, 92 guests and 10 staff there have tested positive for the coronavirus. at laguna honda hospital there are now 18 confirmed cases of corona

now 21 people in san francisco have died from coronavirus. this is a loss to our community and i send my condolences to their loved ones. we know that 20 of the people who have died were over 60 years old and all 21 had underlying health conditions. this is consistent with what we know about who is most at risk. our hospitalization numbers for covid-positive patients have been holding relatively steady for the past two weeks. if you look at the graph on the data tracker, you can see that the curve is flat. san francisco, you made that happen. it is an incredible achievement and i thank you. and we must continue to flatten the curve. i remain very concerned about outbreaks that are occurring in the homeless population, long-term care facilities and other congregate living settings. as we have known and as i have said from the beginning, that this is where the virus presents the greatest threat. if people affected by these outbreaks get very sick, it could still overwhelm our healthcare system. that is why we have prioritized vulnerable populat

we moved to san francisco early on.mission district and moved out to daily city and bounced back to san francisco. we lived across the street from the ups building. for me, when my earliest memories were the big brown trucks driving up and down the street keeping us awake at night. when i was seven-years-old and i'm in charge of making sure we get on the bus on time to get to school. i have to make sure that we do our homework. it's a lot of responsibility for a kid. the weekends were always for family. we used to get together and whether we used to go watch a movie at the new mission theater and then afterwards going to kentucky fried chicken. that was big for us. we get kentucky fried chicken on sunday. whoa! go crazy! so for me, home is having something where you are all together. whether it's just together for dinner or whether it's together for breakfast or sharing a special moment at the holidays. whether it's thanksgiving or christmas or birthdays. that is home. being so close to berkley and oakland and san franc

it spreads to san francisco.ch is perhaps the least the worst place in the world for it to spread there are many reasons why. the one thing when you get the disease it's a gruesome death. even a little bit from the book probably one of the grosser scenes in the book so if your little squeamish i learned a lot of very gross things i held back on most of them you want at the grossest stuff come up to me "after words" and i'll tell you. before the plague reached san francisco it reached honolulu. it was found in chinatown there as well. so in this scene, doctor lee is a doctor in chinatown, the victim's name is yet coy. a man who brings him to doctor lee is a man named phong. they lived in the same essentially flophouse in china. phong saw that your coit was near death, picks them up, put them on his back and walks them two or three blocks to the doctor's office, trying to save his life. so this is the scene -- max or doctor lee alone and phong burst in and laid him in front of him. the man was covered in feces and
