so so you met camille in 2016 you worked in a shelter i was wondering how you came to that shelter, and how you decided she was someone that you wanted to write about? so i knew i wanted to write about homelessness, i felt like we were living through and still are now worse than ever i'm sure real human rights crisis. not totally undiscussed we were talking about big issues big data points. i didn't feel like readers had many opportunities to experience through the process of narratives what daily life with those actual struggles felt like. and so i started reaching out to various organizations that i had hoped would help me connect with city shelters in new york. city shelters in new york to not permit journalists it's an abomination our tax dollars support them massive public institution goes completely unobserved by the public. because it's completely unobserved by journalists. and if i had a bigger bank account or bigger institution or any institution supporting this work, i would bring in wall street against the city. instead, i reached out to private shelters and i found a shelter

instead i reached out to private shelters and i found a shelter in the park which i wasn't looking to find a shelter the contrasts present themselves and i worked with a woman that had volunteer run with a couple of staff members. they talk about their week and what's going on and don't worry. i was surprised after so much red tape to find a new yorker that justice was great, welcome. it raised a problem with working for the shelter or as a journalist. and was i going to whip this thing people might not want to show me as a reporter and so that became a line to walk. i didn't take out my notebook for weeks even though i did talk about my purpose there. they could've changed their mind at any point if they wanted to and they really did stick with that which is frustrating at times as a journalist but it felt essential ethically as a person that is already in such a disproportionate portion of power in a situation. so often we talk about nonfiction writers and filmmakers choosing their subject as if it is a one-way choice is about people wanting to open up to each other and she really w

and annette shelter. and then to be suspicious of camilla and if they could explain a little bit because. >> it is interesting when a speak to people about the book and those have been able to read it there is such a variety and there is some people and now i just touch my face. [laughter] what a tough cookie she really had to lay it down and then some people think that's the way to deal with women and property and that's also not a real name that the one that i know will tell you she had been around the block doing this work for decades and dealt with the drama. and in the very small shelter with a very big personality and those that it would cost and paying for it out of public assistance funds to have a studio apartment in her mind and prime brooklyn and she really wanted to make sure there were not people who are trying to pull one over on her just because they had a challenge in life. she also knew because she had been through it before, a lot of people can cause trouble who need a lot more support a

sheltering. and we will also be doing meal delivery, supporting animal care and providing on site, as well. we'll be required to follow the same orders as the general public and only leave for essential trips with essential face coverings. and we want to provide people with everything they need to safely shelter in place or remain on the site. while pier 94 location does not have any residential neighbors, we're approaching this shelter in a responsible way and addressing the safety and health concerns of the surrounding port tenants and the community. hsa will engage san francisco law enforcement and we'll double up on security efforts here to provide patrols and around-the-clock oversights in the shelter and surrounding community and we're drawing on the expert expertise of healthce professionals, as well, and we'll protect deaths from the spread of the coronavirus. dph will provide clinical support to the site and dr. bennett, i'm not sure if you're on the line and would like to speak a little

shelter in place is not a safe shelter. we are seeing-- we are seeing increased calls to police departments during this time, but interestingly enough what we're not seeing is an increase in those who are seeking help or shelter in our women's shelters. it was just a couple of weeks ago i had a phone call with representatives from the various women's shelters around my state, probably a dozen or so women on the line and i was asking specifically how are we doing within the shelters? what are we seeing? and their numbers are down. and if you look at it just from a numbers perspective you'd say good. madam president, we know the domestic violence doesn't disappear, it doesn't go away at times like we are facing now. it just goes underground. and i think what we are seeing is that concern, that fear, as difficult as the situation may be at home, it might be more frightening to go to a shelter where you may be exposed to this invisible threat of the virus. and so i wish that i could say that as a consequence of what we're seein

they have moved people out of congregant shelters.hey did set up isolation hotels fafairly early for people who needed to be isolated because they have symptoms of covid. some angst we are not doing as well yet in new york city that other places are doing, are broadly testing in shelters in new york. in some places, for example, studies have come out of boston come out of atlantnta, san francisco now, including a study that was published by the cdc where they have done widespread testing at homeless shelters. what they found is once yoyou gt even a a small clustster of twor more people within the shelter who have covid19, when they test everybody in those shelters, 30% or more test positive for coronavirus and the majority of them, the vast majority, actually, have not displayed symptoms. in new york city, some of the shelters have begun doing some testing but it is still not a widespread. that is problematic because we know there are all of these asymptomatic cases and so ththe current screening to try to catch people who do have cor

similar to our leased hotels, we want to provide people with what they need to shelter in place. while the location does not have any immediate residential neighbors, we're approaching the development of this temporary shelter in a responsible way, addressing the safety and health concerns of the surrounding port tenants and the supporting community. i want to express our sincere gratitude to our partners, at the port for preparing the staging area and the utilities and all of the trailers and rvs have been delivered and are on site now. we anticipate the shelter being ready to accept guests next week and will operate throughout the duration of san francisco's declared health emergency. we've said before that are our capacity to contain the coronavirus and flatten the curve to stop the spread depends on the ability to protect all people in san francisco, to acquire compassion from every community across san francisco to step up and take action. this shelter is an important part of the larger city efforts that we continue to implement to provide equitable, temporary housing soluti

have to have shelter. so we're taking all the precautions and to make sure they get the screening and this is based and the c.d.c. guidance and how long the disease is culturalable and it appears after nine to 10 days it approaches zero. while that is still needs more research behind it, they have changed the guidance space on that and a lot of the nation is looking at that as a marker. so people are going from the hotels to the shelter. >> potentially they could be. yes. >> and last question, and similar to what supervisor mandelman was saying around behavior health if somebody is wanting to go into detox, into treatment related to substance use, to exit a hotel and go into treatment, what sort of opportunities are there for that? i have come across people who want to go to detox and treatment and unclear on what we can offer them. because of covid, there's been limitations in admissions and if there was room and to the quarantine of the area and get tested. and is negative and does not guarantee and quar

so princess is a shelter provider but we're also a housing provider we recognise the necessity of shelter but we do look at shelter as a band aid to the issue of almost really the solution for homelessness is house if you've got limited housing opportunities you've got limited opportunities to house the homeless so it's really been a push in our community to get more housing stock on the ground so that we can solve homelessness and not just bandaid it was shelter. without housing report was we put it out in 2006 we formed rat. and made 2005 and immediately started. funding trends and affordable housing and both were all through the u.s.d.a. u.s. department of agriculture and urban through housing and urban development and because we wanted to look at we know the shelter system started in the late eighty's to early 83 and by mid 1983 was across the country by 1987 the federal government had passed almost funding as a major program of their. what the hell happened right before that. there's 2 kinds of leadership crisis leadership and non crisis leadership in the. non-crisis leadership when

due to social distancing measures the shelters can only accept half their capacity and people have to wear face masks but not everyone has one and many are trying their best to keep safe. and now we have a lack of supplies to face masks that's why we have started to make our own once the spread of the virus. typhoons are a common occurrence in the philippines but this time the corona virus outbreak has made the threat even worse the national weather agency warns of potential flooding and landslides in the coming days. and. already ravaged several islands of the philippines how bad is the damage. paresh government officials that i spoke to told me that managing a typhoon in the middle of a pandemic is an absolute nightmare we've seen the photos from the provinces where the typhoon 1st made landfall and we saw thousands of people whose houses were just flat and by the by the very strong winds now these are the same people who have been evacuated into temporary shelters that are overcrowded and where sanitation is already very challenging now what's going to happen to them after the typh

so we are now about seven weeks into the shelter in place order. i know, you know, that, like so many other san franciscans that are blessed to be housed, we are getting antsy. i know this weekend, the parks were filled and people had no masks and we're trying to inform them that we're not out of this yet, and that in order to keep the curve flat, it isn't a done deal; that we have to continue to shelter in place in order to do that. but what's so hard for me when i talk to my housed constituents is that outside they door, they see massive, massive tent encampments where people are out in the streets without masks, they're clearly interacting, sharing equipment, have no access to showers, no access to water, have no access to food or very little access to food. they're going to work, some of them, because despite the stereotypes, many unhoused members of our city are working. and i've just been frankly shocked that there has not been one health order issued yet directly related to this population. and it seems like you've operated with two separate
