His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

The firm \u003ca href=\"https://www.tobenerlaw.com/cant-afford-rent-covid-19/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">recently published a legal toolkit\u003c/a> for tenants who have been financially burdened because of COVID-19, which also advises tenants with no other options to stop paying rent and refuse to leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tobener predicts tenants likely won’t see an eviction judgement until sometime in 2021, because even when the courts do open, there will be a huge backlog of cases and the potential limitations of holding jury trials.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Joseph Tobener, Tenant rights attorney\"]‘It’s a real mess… It’s like the perfect shitstorm with the courts being closed.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a real mess,” Tobener said. “It’s like the perfect shitstorm with the courts being closed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeff Woo, a San Francisco-based property attorney who represents landlords with Cooper White & Cooper LLP, also sees a backlog of cases in the courts’ future, and said that means time is now on the tenants’ side. The Judicial Council’s decision was just one more in a bevy of tenant protections cities and counties had already approved, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What this order has done is, it has shifted the whole timing to at least 120 days longer,” Woo said, “and that is to the advantage of the tenant.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evictions were one way to get tenants to negotiate a payment plan if they were not making rent, Woo said. But rent will be due eventually, and Woo is advising clients to work out a deal with their tenants to pay some rent now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some property management companies, however, have tried more aggressive tactics to get their tenants to pay. Greg August, of San Francisco, was laid off in March from his job as a hotel convention waiter and bartender. He’s applied for unemployment but still hasn’t received a payment yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The property managers for Normandy Apartments in San Francisco, where August lives, slipped a letter under the door asking for a phone number for tenants’ employers to verify they are unemployed. They also requested a statement, under penalty of perjury, declaring the tenant does not have sufficient savings to cover rent. Attorneys for tenants say that it’s illegal to request those items.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>August said the letter made him really nervous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t feel like getting up in the morning,” he said. “I’m afraid there will be a knock on my door demanding I pay, and I’m worried about someone approaching me in the laundry room.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David Kimmel, one of the property managers for Normandy Apartments, said they’ve since agreed to only ask tenants for a letter from their employers stating their hours were reduced or that they were laid off. Then, like many other property managers, he’ll try to work out a payment plan when the tenants can go back to work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re all in the same boat here,” Kimmel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Striking a Deal\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/many-americans-couldnt-pay-april-rent/\">A recent survey by Apartment List\u003c/a> of nearly 1,000 California residents found nearly 11 percent of tenants were unable to pay any rent in April. Another 14 percent of renters could only make a partial payment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s pretty consistent with what Bill Rosetti, the CEO of J & R Associates, an Oakland-based property management firm, said he’s seeing, with about 10 percent of the tenants in the 700 or 800 units his company owns unable to pay rent this month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rosetti is offering his tenants a 60-day deferral on rent and is using that time to figure out a payment plan. A five-decade veteran of the industry, Rosetti has seen recessions come and go. But he’s never experienced anything like this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is way worse,” he said, “because in other cycles, it’s just a small percentage of people — 5 or 10 percent of tenants who can’t pay — but in this circumstance, every one of our tenants is impacted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He expects 30 percent of his tenants won’t be able to pay come June if the shelter in place continues, which will make it difficult to keep up with maintenance on the buildings and seismic retrofit work he had planned to do this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The burden falls especially hard on small landlords who have just a few properties they rent out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andy Kim and his wife purchased a four-unit apartment building in Oakland’s Eastmont neighborhood last year. Most of the tenants use Section 8 vouchers to subsidize their rents, Kim said. And two of them couldn’t make payments this month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim said he has no plans to evict his tenants. But he doesn’t know how long he can cover his mortgage without their rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can do maybe six months, and then we’ll be forced to sell the building,” he said, adding that the time frame includes getting his bank to agree to a forbearance on the mortgage and taking out loans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I don’t pay for April, May and June, my bank won’t charge interest, but come July, I have to pay in full,” he said. “And if I don’t pay anything until then, I will have a really big bill.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Ripple Effects\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>If property owners can’t pay their mortgages or maintain their properties, a housing disaster could be looming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not just renters that get hurt by this,” said Carol Galante, faculty director for the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley and the former federal housing commissioner during the Obama administration. “I think people really don’t understand how much of the rent goes to covering the basics of owning and running a building.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a worst case scenario, Galante said that if landlords start missing their payments, we could see an extended drop in rents and home values. On top of that, a spike in unemployment and an uncertain economic forecast could spell bad news for the housing market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t want to see a dramatic distressed market,” Galante said. “That’s not good for anybody.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But just as landlords are feeling uncertain about being able to pay their mortgages, electricity bills and maintenance, tenants are uncertain when they will go back to work — or even if they will go back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jamie Bagley always thought hairdressing was a recession-proof profession. Even during the Great Depression, some people were getting their hair done, she said. Now, she’s not sure when she’ll be allowed to go back to work or what the economy will look like when she does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, she doesn’t want to use the little savings she has on rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel better hanging on to what I have,” Bagley said, acknowledging that landlords are in a tough spot, too. “I feel like there has to be some sort of debt forgiveness here, otherwise everyone is going to end up in a really bad place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Resources for Tenants\u003c/h3>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>KQED’s collection of resources for renters, with a breakdown by county are available \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809833/stressed-about-paying-your-april-rent-check-here-first\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>For additional assistance with bills see KQED’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11812172/how-to-navigate-bills-right-now-from-student-loans-to-phone-plans#4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How to Navigate Bills Right Now, From Student Loans to Phone Plans. \u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.mynd.co/situation-room/tenant/coronavirus/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">collection of resources\u003c/a> on COVID-19 for renters and residents compiled by Mynd Property Management.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1R9y8KLbU-oZTJheoqobmqg6TJxkwSjTkJvm6WywHURk/edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bay Area Mass Resource List\u003c/a> is a continuously updated document with additional housing and health information.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Eso significa que 1 en cada 4 trabajadores estadounidenses solicitó ayuda por desempleo. Una encuesta reciente de la \u003ca href=\"https://www.census.gov/data-tools/demo/hhp/#/table?measures=JLR\">Oficina del Censo de EE.UU\u003c/a>. encontró que más de la mitad de hogares en California ha perdido ganancias debido a la pandemia de covid-19.

A los jueces también se les impide emitir fallos por defecto y los inquilinos que enfrentan órdenes de desalojo no pueden ser llamados a presentarse dentro de la corte. También limita a los bancos a presentar juicios hipotecarios contra los propietarios de viviendas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esta orden estatal permanecerá vigente durante 90 días después de que se levante el estado de emergencia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Además, ciudades y condados alrededor del Área de la Bahía han pasado órdenes locales para tener protecciones adicionales a las del Consejo Judicial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En la mayoría de los casos, se proveen protecciones adicionales en las cuales los inquilinos usen las ordenes como defensa ante un posible desalojo. Y, muchas de las órdenes, se provee un periodo para que los inquilinos paguen la renta que se debe—desde dos meses después, como en Sonoma, o hasta 12 meses después, como en Solano.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Las reglas locales depende de dónde vive.

Esta es una decisión mucho más fuerte que la moratoria de desalojo estatal establecida por el gobernador Gavin Newsom en marzo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esto es lo que hace la nueva regla:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Impide que un tribunal emita una citación después de que el arrendador presente un caso de desalojo:\u003c/strong> excepto cuando sea necesario para la seguridad de otros inquilinos en la propiedad o para proteger la salud. Esto significa que los inquilinos no estarán dentro del plazo de cinco días para responder a la demanda judicial y tendrán tiempo de responder hasta que los tribunales levanten la regla de emergencia.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Previene fallos por incumplimiento:\u003c/strong> normalmente, si el inquilino no presenta una respuesta, el tribunal emitirá un fallo por incumplimiento. A menudo dando el fallo a favor del propietario. Esto evita eso, excepto en casos de salud y seguridad. O si el inquilino no presentó una respuesta antes de que se levantara la orden estatal.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Extiende el tiempo para los juicios:\u003c/strong> si un caso de desalojo ya está en proceso, y el inquilino ya ha respondido o comparecido, los jueces deben programar la audiencia para un tiempo que sea 60 días después de la fecha solicitada, a menos que sea necesario establecerlo antes para la salud y la seguridad.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Posponer los juicios de abril:\u003c/strong> cualquier juicio que haya sido establecido para abril deberá ser reprogramado al menos 60 días.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Para las reglas locales, todo depende de dónde viva. A continuación se presentan sólo tres de las órdenes de desalojo de la ciudad y el condado que se han implementado recientemente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>San Francisco:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los propietarios tienen prohibido desalojar a los inquilinos que no pueden pagar el alquiler en abril si pueden demostrar que se debe a pérdida de ingresos o trabajo relacionados con COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>deben notificar por escrito\u003c/strong> que no pagarán dentro de los 30 días de la fecha de vencimiento original del alquiler. Se deben proporcionar avisos por separado para cada pago de alquiler que no se puede pagar hasta seis meses después de que expire la orden de moratoria de desalojo de la ciudad.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Después de proporcionar el aviso,\u003cstrong> los inquilinos tienen una semana para proporcionar documentación\u003c/strong> que muestre el impacto de la pandemia en sus finanzas.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Esos plazos también pueden extenderse.

También protege a los inquilinos contra futuros desalojos por falta de pago y prohíbe que se apliquen cargos por demora a la renta atrasada debido a los impactos relacionados con el coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>no están obligados\u003c/strong> a informar al propietario que no pagarán el alquiler para acceder a estas protecciones, pero se sugiere que lo haga.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos también deben asegurarse de \u003cstrong>mantener toda la documentación\u003c/strong> de cómo COVID-19 ha afectado sus ingresos, en caso de que el propietario decida desalojarlos más adelante. En la ciudad de Oakland, \u003cstrong>no se requiere\u003c/strong> que la documentación esté protegida, pero es muy recomendable.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Condado de Santa Clara:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Una moratoria de desalojo temporal, hasta el 31 de mayo, se aplica a todas las propiedades residenciales y comerciales en el condado de Santa Clara.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>aún deben informar\u003c/strong> a los propietarios si no pueden pagar el alquiler, y proporcionar documentación de cómo COVID-19 ha afectado sus finanzas.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Una vez que finaliza la moratoria, \u003cstrong>los inquilinos tienen 120 días\u003c/strong> para pagar el alquiler.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Los propietarios \u003cstrong>no pueden cobrar sobrecargos\u003c/strong> por alquileres no pagados durante la moratoria.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch3>¿Qué sucede si recibo un aviso de desalojo?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Si por alguna razón recibe un aviso de desalojo, \u003cstrong>comuníquese con un abogado u oficina de asesoría legal lo antes posible\u003c/strong>.

A los jueces también se les impide emitir fallos por defecto y los inquilinos que enfrentan órdenes de desalojo no pueden ser llamados a presentarse dentro de la corte. También limita a los bancos a presentar juicios hipotecarios contra los propietarios de viviendas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esta orden estatal permanecerá vigente durante 90 días después de que se levante el estado de emergencia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Además, ciudades y condados alrededor del Área de la Bahía han pasado órdenes locales para tener protecciones adicionales a las del Consejo Judicial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En la mayoría de los casos, se proveen protecciones adicionales en las cuales los inquilinos usen las ordenes como defensa ante un posible desalojo.

Esta es una decisión mucho más fuerte que la moratoria de desalojo estatal establecida por el gobernador Gavin Newsom en marzo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Esto es lo que hace la nueva regla:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Impide que un tribunal emita una citación después de que el arrendador presente un caso de desalojo:\u003c/strong> excepto cuando sea necesario para la seguridad de otros inquilinos en la propiedad o para proteger la salud. Esto significa que los inquilinos no estarán dentro del plazo de cinco días para responder a la demanda judicial y tendrán tiempo de responder hasta que los tribunales levanten la regla de emergencia.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Previene fallos por incumplimiento:\u003c/strong> normalmente, si el inquilino no presenta una respuesta, el tribunal emitirá un fallo por incumplimiento. A menudo dando el fallo a favor del propietario. Esto evita eso, excepto en casos de salud y seguridad. O si el inquilino no presentó una respuesta antes de que se levantara la orden estatal.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Extiende el tiempo para los juicios:\u003c/strong> si un caso de desalojo ya está en proceso, y el inquilino ya ha respondido o comparecido, los jueces deben programar la audiencia para un tiempo que sea 60 días después de la fecha solicitada, a menos que sea necesario establecerlo antes para la salud y la seguridad.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Posponer los juicios de abril:\u003c/strong> cualquier juicio que haya sido establecido para abril deberá ser reprogramado al menos 60 días.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Para las reglas locales, todo depende de dónde viva. A continuación se presentan sólo tres de las órdenes de desalojo de la ciudad y el condado que se han implementado recientemente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>San Francisco:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los propietarios tienen prohibido desalojar a los inquilinos que no pueden pagar el alquiler en abril si pueden demostrar que se debe a pérdida de ingresos o trabajo relacionados con COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>deben notificar por escrito\u003c/strong> que no pagarán dentro de los 30 días de la fecha de vencimiento original del alquiler. Se deben proporcionar avisos por separado para cada pago de alquiler que no se puede pagar hasta seis meses después de que expire la orden de moratoria de desalojo de la ciudad.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Después de proporcionar el aviso,\u003cstrong> los inquilinos tienen una semana para proporcionar documentación\u003c/strong> que muestre el impacto de la pandemia en sus finanzas.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Esos plazos también pueden extenderse.

También protege a los inquilinos contra futuros desalojos por falta de pago y prohíbe que se apliquen cargos por demora a la renta atrasada debido a los impactos relacionados con el coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>no están obligados\u003c/strong> a informar al propietario que no pagarán el alquiler para acceder a estas protecciones, pero se sugiere que lo haga.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos también deben asegurarse de \u003cstrong>mantener toda la documentación\u003c/strong> de cómo COVID-19 ha afectado sus ingresos, en caso de que el propietario decida desalojarlos más adelante. En la ciudad de Oakland, \u003cstrong>no se requiere\u003c/strong> que la documentación esté protegida, pero es muy recomendable.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Condado de Santa Clara:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Una moratoria de desalojo temporal, hasta el 31 de mayo, se aplica a todas las propiedades residenciales y comerciales en el condado de Santa Clara.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Los inquilinos \u003cstrong>aún deben informar\u003c/strong> a los propietarios si no pueden pagar el alquiler, y proporcionar documentación de cómo COVID-19 ha afectado sus finanzas.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Una vez que finaliza la moratoria, \u003cstrong>los inquilinos tienen 120 días\u003c/strong> para pagar el alquiler.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Los propietarios \u003cstrong>no pueden cobrar sobrecargos\u003c/strong> por alquileres no pagados durante la moratoria.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch3>¿Qué sucede si recibo un aviso de desalojo?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Si por alguna razón recibe un aviso de desalojo, \u003cstrong>comuníquese con un abogado u oficina de asesoría legal lo antes posible\u003c/strong>.

"content": "\u003cp>Lori Waldman got lucky. She thought she and her 87-year-old father would be sleeping in her car tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As recently as yesterday, the 58 year old expected to be locked out of her apartment by Riverside County sheriff’s deputies. The eviction notice they received last week said they had to be out by April 1. But Waldman didn’t know where they were supposed to go in the middle of a pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m scared to death for my father because of his age,” said Waldman, who said she had been withholding rent from her landlord for months because of disagreements about various repairs. “I’m real worried about him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After CalMatters contacted the real estate firm that owned her apartment complex, the eviction was postponed. But that decision was the landlord’s — not the sheriff’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly two weeks after Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered 40 million Californians to “\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11806988/sheltering-in-place-what-you-need-to-know\">shelter in place\u003c/a>” to avoid spreading COVID-19, and just days after he issued an executive order declaring a “\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809833/stressed-about-paying-your-april-rent-check-here-first\">statewide eviction moratorium\u003c/a>,” some sheriffs’ departments across California were still forcibly removing or planning to forcibly remove renters like Waldman. Their evictions are not protected by state or local emergency measures because they are not directly related to financial fallout from the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kimball Tirey and St. John, a law firm that provides legal services for landlords across the state and has been tracking changes to local eviction rules, could confirm to CalMatters that \u003ca href=\"http://clientportal.kts-law.com/resource_library/docs/LegalAlerts/SpreadsheetofCourtUpdates3.17.20.pdf\">only 27\u003c/a> of California’s 58 county sheriffs’ departments — the law enforcement agency responsible for lockouts — had stopped them as of late last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Madeline Howard, a senior attorney for the Western Center on Law and Poverty\"]'We need the governor to step in and do a real moratorium, because this is happening, people are being kicked out when they’re being told to shelter in place.' [/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, which declined to comment for this story, is still performing “writs” — legalese for court-ordered lockouts — for eviction cases in its queue. \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/california-divide/2020/04/fresno-first-homeless-coronavirus-patient/\">Fresno County\u003c/a> sheriff’s deputies completed 20 lockouts in the last week and a half before clearing their backlog April 1, according to department spokesperson Tony Botti. Imperial County sheriff’s deputies just finished their evictions caseload two days ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We hope they saw this coming and maybe already have a plan in place to seek resources that might help them,” Botti said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While tenant-rights groups say sheriffs and local governments can and should stop lockouts immediately, they lay much of the blame for the continued evictions on Newsom. They criticize his efforts to protect renters as limited, confusing and insufficient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need leadership,” said Madeline Howard, a senior attorney for the Western Center on Law and Poverty. “We need the governor to step in and do a real moratorium, because this is happening, people are being kicked out when they’re being told to shelter-in-place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Newsom administration did not respond to repeated requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A Moratorium ... With Many Exceptions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Waldman spent the past few days scrambling to prepare for the lockout, leaving and returning to the Boulder Creek Apartments complex despite the \u003ca href=\"https://www.pe.com/2020/04/01/riverside-county-coronavirus-cases-now-at-429-still-13-dead/\">rising number\u003c/a> of coronavirus infections in Riverside County and \u003ca href=\"https://www.pe.com/2020/03/31/riverside-county-recommends-covering-face-in-public-to-prevent-coronavirus/\">its warnings to wear a mask\u003c/a> whenever venturing outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She made a half-hour drive to Yucaipa — where the virus broke out recently in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sbsun.com/2020/03/31/51-residents-6-staff-at-yucaipa-nursing-home-test-positive-for-coronavirus/\">nursing home\u003c/a> — to have her father’s tax return prepared in the vain hope a refund could forestall the eviction. Waldman also made trips back and forth to a self-storage complex to drop off boxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stress has weighed on her father, who has memory problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s gotten up like 20 times already today, asking me, ‘What about this?

That’s what happened the other day when a guest came in with a cough and chills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I sent him to urgent care,” Mastrocola said. “They sent him back with a letter that was very clear saying he has no signs or conditions of fever or upper respiratory problems, so that gave me some comfort.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, he let the man stay the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several counties, including in Alameda, San Francisco and Santa Clara, have begun offering hotel rooms, RVs or other shelters to people experiencing homelessness. In Alameda County, health officials have started moving people who are experiencing symptoms, along with some people considered high risk, into two hotels to isolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara County, public health staff is hoping to open a temporary shelter by the end of the week at its fairgrounds to maintain social distancing at the nearly two dozen shelters in the county. In San Francisco, the city is quarantining people in hotel rooms and plans to open a new temporary shelter next week at Moscone Center West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for people who are homeless say it’s not happening soon enough. Only a relatively small portion of people living in shelters or camps can take advantage of these programs. And in the meantime, people living in shelters and encampments are risking exposure to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11810155\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 919px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11810155 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"919\" height=\"847\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg 919w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-160x147.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-800x737.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 919px) 100vw, 919px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Berkeley Free Clinic has installed DIY hand washing stations and hand sanitizer at camp communities in Berkeley.

Joe Pendleton is a three-tour veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He lives in a van in Berkeley and does outreach to the tent communities in his city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One man he visits is receiving chemotherapy treatment and has emphysema, Pendleton said.

She spoke on the condition of anonymity because she’s not authorized to speak to the press. She said people come into her community health clinic all the time, coughing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without enough personal protective equipment, she said she’s terrified of passing the virus on to her family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I come home, I strip in the garage and put everything in the washer and go immediately to the shower,” the nurse said. “It’s stressful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With gyms, libraries and other services closed, the places many depended upon for survival to shower or charge phones are also no longer available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"related coverage\"]Lauren, a 29-year-old server in San Jose, had been paying a gym membership to take showers. She declined to give her last name because she said her employer doesn’t know she lives out of her camper truck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a whole population of people who work part time and are in between places, Lauren said, who depend on gyms as their main place to get clean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It just really struck me that they weren’t being deemed essential, not for working out, but as far as using the showers,” Lauren said. “I think that was a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley, volunteers with the Berkeley Free Clinic have installed makeshift hand washing stations because they say the 22 stations the city installed are not enough. The clinic’s hand washing stations consist of two plastic buckets, a pump and a soap dispenser with instructions written in permanent ink of who to call if it runs out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Portable toilets at the encampments could be breeding grounds for the virus, Perry said, and some people are afraid to use them. And with many businesses closed, Pendleton said he’s noticed more people relieving themselves behind dumpsters and other discrete locations. Spots that were recently cleaned up are dirty again, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really an issue,” Pendleton said. “There’s poop all over town and it’s going to pile up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But beyond the critical need for expanded sanitation services, advocates for unsheltered residents agree, food is the biggest issue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Melissa Moore has been able to work with St. Vincent de Paul, a church-backed organization that does outreach to homeless people, to get some food delivered to the tent communities in San Leandro. Still, she said the organization can’t do it all alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are at the mercy of me and my networking and other members at St. Vincent’s, but other than that, they are not getting food drops,” Moore said. “It’s getting to the point where St. Vincent can’t keep carrying them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>For more information about how to donate your time or resources to those in need, see these KQED guides:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11806966/be-a-helper-how-to-contribute-to-your-community-during-coronavirus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Be a Helper: How to Contribute to Your Community During the Coronavirus\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11807409/coronavirus-what-bay-area-counties-are-doing-for-homeless-residents-and-how-you-can-help\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Homelessness and Coronavirus: What Bay Area Counties Are Doing — And How You Can Help\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

In Alameda County, health officials have started moving people who are experiencing symptoms, along with some people considered high risk, into two hotels to isolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara County, public health staff is hoping to open a temporary shelter by the end of the week at its fairgrounds to maintain social distancing at the nearly two dozen shelters in the county. In San Francisco, the city is quarantining people in hotel rooms and plans to open a new temporary shelter next week at Moscone Center West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for people who are homeless say it’s not happening soon enough. Only a relatively small portion of people living in shelters or camps can take advantage of these programs. And in the meantime, people living in shelters and encampments are risking exposure to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11810155\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 919px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11810155 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"919\" height=\"847\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg 919w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-160x147.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-800x737.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 919px) 100vw, 919px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Berkeley Free Clinic has installed DIY hand washing stations and hand sanitizer at camp communities in Berkeley.
