They're full. The phone lines are ringing more like than we've ever seen. Our Aspire program, the program that we designed for after school resiliency training for high school kids who have issues with anxiety and other mental health issues, it's full. And we have the longest waiting list that we've ever had."

We have seen as of yesterday approximately 100 patients since the beginning, since the very first patient that you mentioned. And we saw the very first patient in California. The second on the west coast, Washington was the first. And the third in the US. This virus has been with us since late January at least. That's when our patient showed up, and probably since late December. Of the 100 patients that we have seen, the what I would call peak — the amount of patients that we have had in the hospital at one time — was 25." "Is that true for both campuses?" "That is the total for two campuses. Hoag Hospital Irvine has 75 beds and Hoag Newport has up to 400 if you chose to expand it. So to the point of capacity, the worst day was 25, the one day of COVID patients. As of Monday, for the past four days, we were between 9 and 12 patients, some discharged, some coming in. So from 25 down to 9 and 12, we have seen a drop in the number of patients requiring hospitalization." 4t" of July • 2019 — 115,000 This weekend beachgoers 4/24-40,000 • 2018 — 100,000 beachgoers g beachgoers beach g • 4/25-40,000 • 2017 —130,000 beachgoers g beachgoers beach g • 4/26 — Zo,000 • 2016 — 120,000 beachgoers g beach oers g • 2015 — 125,000 beachgoers ROWE Helicopter Photos Saturday - 4/25/2020 Huntington Beach Police Department •.* 17 hrs -O We want to let everyone know what a great job aur community is doing in regard to social distancing and give a perspective of what's really going on at the beach. Huntington Beach Police Department and Huntington Beach Fire`s Marine Safety Division are on the beach patrolling and educating visitors and have found the majority of pea pie staying in their own unit, and if not, we are edurating them and they have complied. There are hourly social distancing reminders from the loud speaker on the pier, and we also have public works for any crowd related issues with barriers and signage that needs to be put into place if needed. Despite what's being reported, the majority of our beach goers are complying to social distancing. Please enjoy the rest of your weekend, stay safe, and continue to social distance as e #hbready COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES PUhlIC Health (Beaches closed 3/27/2020) • Malibu— 216.03/100k • Manhattan Beach— 180.56/100k • Santa Monica - 166.58/100k • Redondo Beach — 148.48/100k • Venice Beach — 129.85/100k • Long Beach — 123.25/100k • Hermosa Beach - 116.93/100k • Marina del Rey— 116.88/100k http://publichealth. lacountyy, aov/me/me dia/Coronavirus/locations, htm I health CARE AGENCY (Beaches open) • Dana Point — 68.22/100k • San Clemente— 68.80/100k • Huntington Beach— 88.83/100k • Newport Beach— 107.82/100k **in past 14 days, Newport Beach's case count has increased 6 total confirmed cases** http:&ublichealth. lacounty. gov/me dia/Coronavirus/locations. htm i I C A L I F O R N I A COASTAL C O M M I S S I O N "The Executive Director is prepared to waive permitting requirements for restrictions or closures where: 1. the restriction or closure is not longer than the duration of the applicable shelter -in-place order; 2. it is the minimum action necessary to protect public health and safety; 3. and it does not involve the erection of any permanent structures "We recognize there is an inequity in coastal access and we strongly encourage local governments to consider approaches that balance public health order requirements and equitable public access -- the coast belongs to all.

I want to acknowledge the county board of supervisors in Orange County. I'm told they are looking to consider some augmentations and some more deliberative engagement to address the conditions and those concerns that were highlighted over the course of the weekend. "But I want folks to know this as well, we're doing the same at the state level. The California Highway Patrol with our state parks patrol, with other partners, and we will avail ourselves to more aggressive enforcement of the stay-at- home order, of the social distancing, of the guidelines and procedures that we expect to be followed all across the state of California." Reporter: "Earlier you had mentioned that you had possibly wanted to work with law enforcement agencies to be a little more aggressive with the enforcement. At least in our area we haven't heard of any citations, does means you're wanting to take a step more towards that or is the goal still education about social distancing guidelines versus enforcement?" Governor: "Yeah, I appreciate it, no. The predominant focus is education. There were no citations or arrests. There were a few warnings scattered all throughout the state of California. I think that's a better approach. I don't want to be punitive. My gosh, someone has lost their job. Last thing they want to do is walk their dog, they're with their kids, and they've got cabin fever and they just want to take a rest on the beach, and all of a sudden they get a citation. I don't want to see that happen. You don't want to see that happen. None of us do, but if there're people thumbing their nose and abusing it, putting their lives at risk, because they're impacting the lives of others and ultimately setting back the cause of reopening the economy as quickly as we'd like to, I think we may have to do a little bit more. "By the way, it extends not just to enforcement, it's also some strategic considerations. When we talk about hard closures, it's primarily these parking facilities. Soft closures include parking facilities, but you broaden some of the parking restrictions even beyond the formal parking areas, you begin to further the efforts to mitigate a surge of visitors." • Stay home if you are sick. • Stay close to home when you get outdoors. This is not the time for a road trip to a destination park or beach. • Venture out only with people in your immediate household. • Walk around the neighborhood and enjoy neighborhood parks. • Always maintain a physical distance of 6 feet or more when recreating in the outdoors. If you cannot maintain physical distancing, leave the park. • Do not congregate in parks. • L SINCE 1864 i FOJ ,...CRs .. � ��"'.�` `- r -, "• "-T,o- .: — ^c � - - _ rl - _ ..ze � ._..�. > 'k' •- r zz imr 3 AM- .. -� y� rr r• �; ��; � y- � . n1c lei � � � -,��,, ,�_ - -- \` ..�M xr r. x•t � � � .,.._ � /. - � ..may-arm`' � r • ` "�%�G^ ``yam � � ��1; -,
