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.",

After months of striking, the landlord agreed to negotiate a sale price with the Oakland Community Land Trust, an organization that acquires and maintains affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife hopes the current rent strike can further the movement for housing as a human right that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11793299/moms-4-housing-in-oakland-vow-to-fight-potential-eviction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Moms 4 Housing\u003c/a> recently helped energize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said many of the people she’s talked to have limited options.

Most of his family members have been laid off or had their hours reduced. He said he will most likely strike on May 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Before it wasn’t a struggle, but now it is either spend the money you do have saved up on rent or keep saving it and see how long it will last. Now it is survival mode,” Zepeda said. “If there’s no money coming in, how are you gonna do it?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unemployment insurance claims soared in March and during the week ending March 21. A total of \u003ca href=\"https://www.fresnobee.com/news/coronavirus/article241528921.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">187,000 people in California filed for unemployment\u003c/a> according to the U.S. Department of Labor, and some expect \u003ca href=\"https://www.businessinsider.com/robert-reich-unemployment-during-public-health-crisis-2020-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unemployment during the coronavirus pandemic to be higher than during the Great Depression\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we look at 2008 and how much money the banks got bailed out, like entire industries were built out while people languished,” Fife said. “We’re saying no, we’re not going to let that happen again, we will stop this entire economy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s up to the people to decide what kind of society that we want to live in. … The people that are reaching out to us want something drastically and dramatically different,” Fife added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife said ACCE has been using rent strikes as a tactic for a long time – most recently to exert pressure on the landlord of a building on 29th Avenue in Oakland. After months of striking, the landlord agreed to negotiate a sale price with the Oakland Community Land Trust, an organization that acquires and maintains affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fife hopes the current rent strike can further the movement for housing as a human right that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11793299/moms-4-housing-in-oakland-vow-to-fight-potential-eviction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Moms 4 Housing\u003c/a> recently helped energize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said many of the people she’s talked to have limited options. Some are waiting for a bailout check, and others won’t benefit from the recently enacted Federal Stimulus bill, either because they are undocumented, college students or didn’t make enough money to qualify.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11810212\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11810212\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/011_KQED_Oakland_RentStrike_04012020-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/011_KQED_Oakland_RentStrike_04012020-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/011_KQED_Oakland_RentStrike_04012020-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/011_KQED_Oakland_RentStrike_04012020-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/011_KQED_Oakland_RentStrike_04012020.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An ‘Oakland Rent Strike’ banner on an apartment building Oakland on April 1, 2020. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“There’s a host of individuals that this [stimulus bill] won’t cover and won’t protect. What happens to them?” Fife asked. “There are very few options that we have to respond to this pandemic and people are choosing to feed their family.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though many of those who are striking are renters, Fife and ACCE have organized with a group of landlords who call themselves “property owners for fair and affordable housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said a few landlords have asked her, “Where do we get our moratorium?

"content": "\u003cp>I have a confession. I don’t know most of my neighbors. I don’t even know the names of everyone on my floor. I live in a tall condo building in Oakland, with a towering view of Piedmont and the surrounding neighborhoods. It’s the kind of building where you can nod to a neighbor for years, without thinking about the interaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No more. Because right now, almost all of us are home together. Thinking about, or trying not to think about, the virus. Our lives intersect in new ways. Our interactions will follow suit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>COVID-19 has transformed my world. My one-bedroom is now my office, tiny gym and portal to the friends I miss hugging and to my parents, who are holed up in the North Bay and haven’t set foot outside since shelter-in-place orders took effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent days, I’ve struggled with my emotions and video chatted with my therapist. I’ve had good days when I am overwhelmed with gladness to be part of a team at KQED whose coverage of this pandemic, deemed an “essential service,” has become more essential than ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m not the only one in my building who’s struggling to find our way in a new landscape with no view of the horizon. The coronavirus is an unspoken part of every interaction. And the fear is there, too. We fear getting each other sick, and we fear what might happen to us if we were to fall ill. My 119-unit building has about 180 residents. For the next few weeks or months, we’ll almost all be living and working here in our little units, separated by a concrete wall and under one roof. I started wondering: How are we all coping so far?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Our ‘Land-Based Cruise Ship’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>I put up a note on the bulletin board in the mail room, asking my neighbors to reach out and tell me their stories. The first one who did was Gina Belleci, who lives on the sixth floor. She and her girlfriend, Jessica Holt, have been sheltering together since Gina’s startup sent everyone home. She now telecommutes from a small table wedged next to the kitchen, while Jessica works with her laptop propped up on a dresser in the bedroom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Gina Belleci\"]”I think we just really need to band together. And these small, tiny ways they really add up. And it's generosity breeds generosity. I feel really excited to be part of this building to see what happens here.”[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gina says some of her days are spent in “silent panic” mode. Other times, she feels optimistic. Gina and Jessica take care of their neighbors. Lately they've been handing out toilet paper and grocery shopping for an elderly friend on the eighth floor, who really should not leave the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we just really need to band together. And these small, tiny ways really add up,” said Gina. ”It's generosity breeds generosity. I feel really excited to be part of this building to see what happens here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica is a freelance theater director, and she told me that her prospects have become extremely uncertain, very quickly. All of her upcoming theater productions have been canceled, and the same is true industry-wide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is all I've really practiced as a trade, as a craft, my entire life,” she told me. “I'm not going to lie — the other night, I sort of threw myself into a little heap. And I and I keep saying, well, we're going to get through this. There will come a time when we return to normal. But will we? Will we ever be able to return to normal? I don't know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They told me that they’ve made the difficult decision to leave. Gina’s 74-year-old mother lives in Antioch and doesn’t have anyone to take care of her. They worry that the longer they spend in a building with 180-odd people, the likelier they are to pick up the coronavirus and bring it back to Gina’s mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I either need to choose being with her, to be able to go get things for her just to keep her in the house, or we need to really commit to this land-based cruise ship we live on — which is so big and has so many people coming in and out,” said Gina.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So they’ve packed their suitcases for a month and said goodbye to their neighbors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s right about the sanitation issue. Our building’s maintenance man has gone home, and there is no cleaning regime, which I suspect is true of many large apartment buildings here in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a building like mine, where space is limited, it’s nice to be able to open your door and have a conversation with someone you meet by the elevators or in the mailroom. But each of those touch points now could be vectors for infection. Elevator buttons. Door knobs. I’ve taken to wearing gloves just to go downstairs or when I’m in the laundry room. When people see you inside an elevator they’re waiting for, they give a tight smile and wait for the next one. Even the mailroom has started to feel a little snug. People don’t linger to enjoy those conversations anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11809726\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11809726\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42443_Dina-Mackin_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-800x698.jpg\" alt=\"Dina Mackin enjoys a glass of rosé as she watches the sunset from her rooftop while sheltering in place.\" width=\"800\" height=\"698\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42443_Dina-Mackin_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-800x698.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42443_Dina-Mackin_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-160x140.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42443_Dina-Mackin_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-1020x890.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42443_Dina-Mackin_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dina Mackin enjoys a glass of rosé as she watches the sunset from her rooftop while sheltering in place. \u003ccite>(Julia Scott/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>So it was a pleasure to receive a text from my neighbor Dina Mackin on the third floor. “Want to meet up on the roof to see the sunset?” it read.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I got there, Dina had a glass of rosé in her hand and was standing in front of a darkening view of West Oakland and in the distance, the Golden Gate Bridge. “This is what I have to do every day to keep my sanity,” she said. “The beauty of just seeing something so simple that happens every single day, that marks the passing of time. You just appreciate it more and more. And this is the time to appreciate it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As she spoke, I realized that I hadn’t been outside in two days. This was the first time I’d tasted fresh air. When days start to run together, watching the sunset is an important form of closure. Even better to watch it with a neighbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dina agreed. “This is one of the few things we're still able to do,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>On the Front Lines\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Katie Stephenson, my neighbor on the second floor, cannot shelter in place because she is a second-year pediatrics resident at Kaiser Permanente Oakland Medical Center. I barely see her as she darts in and out to shower, sleep and drink some coffee before heading back out to the hospital for another 12-hour shift.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke to her on an evening she had just tested negative for COVID-19. She had a post-allergy season cough so her doctor sent her to have a test. But she assumes that it’s only a matter of time before she does get the coronavirus, so she’s careful to limit her contacts within the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mission is just to keep my germs confined to my little space and not let them get out,” she said. “But I also think that if I'm one of the people who gets COVID-19, that I would do fine — most people my age, if we’re healthy, we do fine. I think a lot of people in my residency program, myself included, are very likely to get it and are very likely to do fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Katie has been on the pediatrics ward for the past three weeks. She sees children who have been admitted because their parents are afraid they might have COVID-19. All medical staff must wear personal protective equipment — essentially hazmat suits — and masks around the children, which is profoundly unsettling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are nurses wearing the suits, and there's multiple doctors coming in wearing the suits. It’s scary,” she said. She tries to defuse the fear by making her young patients smile. “I have some stickers that my mom sent for St. Patrick's Day. They're all green. And so I have been bringing in stickers and putting them on my suit. Or I’ll draw like a smiley face, to be a big yellow smiley-face person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Katie’s supervisor has told her group that they’re running a marathon, and so far they’ve only run half a mile. They need to remember to pace themselves. Luckily, Katie is an actual marathon runner — she’s done three of them — so she knows when to push herself. Her freezer is stuffed with homemade dinners prepared by her mother — a source of comfort at the end of another long day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Katie Stephenson\"]”My mission is just to keep my germs confined to my little space and not let them get out.”[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My neighbor Alexa Eurich is also running a marathon of sorts. Somehow, she’s had to find a way to teach her combined classroom of kindergarten and first grade students from her apartment on the fourth floor. Eurich has taught at Aurora School in Oakland for 15 years. The school closed down so quickly that no one had time to grab enough teaching supplies for a month, let alone the rest of the school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you hear about teaching kindergarten remotely, you just have to laugh ... because how is that even humanly possible?” she said. “It's been very hard not knowing, because I've felt competent at my job for a very long time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexa has 16 kids in her classroom. She manages to video chat with four of them each day, in addition to checking in regularly with teachers and parents. She’s trying to keep up with the lessons her kids were learning two weeks ago, but she has to improvise with whatever books the students have around the house. They have to be trained to talk to her through a computer screen. It can be hard to connect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know without a doubt that the best way we humans learn is through a relationship. And not being with them physically when they're at this developmental stage is very trying to the relationship,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also been trying for her. Because she is in remote meetings all day, her husband has to stay in the bedroom for hours at a time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I've been working from, like, six o'clock in the morning to about six o'clock at night,” she said. “And I am still in love with teaching. I love my job. But I'm not in love with this job right now. I have to learn how to do it in a way that feels wrong to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11809728\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11809728\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-800x637.jpg\" alt=\"Grant Eshoo (L) and Guillaume Chartier have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching “Star Trek: The Next Generation” after they finish the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room.\" width=\"800\" height=\"637\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-800x637.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grant Eshoo (L) and Guillaume Chartier have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' after they finish the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Guillaume Charter)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Staying Sane Inside Four Walls\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>I asked my neighbors what they are doing to stay sane amid deeply uncertain circumstances. My neighbor Guillaume Chartier and his husband Grant Eshoo have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching “Star Trek: The Next Generation” after they have finished the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room. (Guillaume is an animator, and Grant works for Alameda County).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They chose to re-watch Star Trek for its nostalgia, but are finding that it holds surprising relevance to our present moment on Earth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was an episode where they were facing a lethal epidemic and they had to take measures to contain it,” said Guillaume. Of course, they succeeded — thanks to Dr. Beverly Crusher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It displays a very earnest, optimistic outlook on humankind. And we're just the kind of nerds that we enjoy watching it together,” he added with a laugh. “It's all imaginary settings, but it touches on very current real human conditions and phenomena.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My second-floor neighbor Judith Rosenberg is in her mid-70s. She reckons she now spends 90% of her time indoors, except for a brisk daily walk or to pick up groceries. She escapes into serial mysteries and spy novels by authors like John le Carré and Charles Cumming. She also emails with her friends, which alleviates some of the “overriding sadness” she has started to feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have felt depression in my life. I’ve felt all sorts of emotions, but I don't get sad very much. This is a deep sadness,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her other great comfort is music. Judy has a gleaming concert piano in her apartment. Her specialty is musical improvisation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel a certain life force when I’m playing,” she told me. “When I sit down to play, there's something about that experience that makes me feel more alive in a way. And it is a great gift.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Ernesto Victoria\"]”It is so good to see a face and to talk.

He isn’t much of a worrier, but he did get concerned a few weeks ago when he developed a cough. His doctor assessed his symptoms and ruled out the coronavirus. Still, the cough has been hard to shake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I get a little scared from time to time, I have to be honest with you,” he said. “The other day, the symptoms were really bothering me. And I just got really emotional.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He pulled out his computer and started writing memories of his childhood in Mexico and of growing up with his seven siblings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe there was this thought, you know, of, 'If I die, I want my daughters to see this,’ ” he laughed. “I was just feeling sentimental and emotional.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11809727\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11809727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42444_Ernesto-Victoria_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-800x543.jpg\" alt=\"Ernesto Victoria started started writing down memories of his childhood in Mexico and of growing up with his seven siblings.\" width=\"800\" height=\"543\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42444_Ernesto-Victoria_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-800x543.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42444_Ernesto-Victoria_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-160x109.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42444_Ernesto-Victoria_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut-1020x692.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42444_Ernesto-Victoria_credit-Julia-Scott2-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ernesto Victoria started started writing down memories of his childhood in Mexico and of growing up with his seven siblings. \u003ccite>(Julia Scott/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ernesto loves swimming, biking and hiking.

I was happy when Ernesto accepted my offer to shop for him sometime soon. Someone on the third floor left a message on the bulletin board offering to help anyone who needs it.

The news will get scarier. But I’ve met more neighbors in the last week than I’ve gotten to know in the past five years.

I live in a tall condo building in Oakland, with a towering view of Piedmont and the surrounding neighborhoods. It’s the kind of building where you can nod to a neighbor for years, without thinking about the interaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No more. Because right now, almost all of us are home together. Thinking about, or trying not to think about, the virus. Our lives intersect in new ways. Our interactions will follow suit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>COVID-19 has transformed my world. My one-bedroom is now my office, tiny gym and portal to the friends I miss hugging and to my parents, who are holed up in the North Bay and haven’t set foot outside since shelter-in-place orders took effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent days, I’ve struggled with my emotions and video chatted with my therapist. I’ve had good days when I am overwhelmed with gladness to be part of a team at KQED whose coverage of this pandemic, deemed an “essential service,” has become more essential than ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m not the only one in my building who’s struggling to find our way in a new landscape with no view of the horizon. The coronavirus is an unspoken part of every interaction. And the fear is there, too. We fear getting each other sick, and we fear what might happen to us if we were to fall ill. My 119-unit building has about 180 residents. For the next few weeks or months, we’ll almost all be living and working here in our little units, separated by a concrete wall and under one roof. I started wondering: How are we all coping so far?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The first one who did was Gina Belleci, who lives on the sixth floor. She and her girlfriend, Jessica Holt, have been sheltering together since Gina’s startup sent everyone home.

Gina and Jessica take care of their neighbors. Lately they've been handing out toilet paper and grocery shopping for an elderly friend on the eighth floor, who really should not leave the building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we just really need to band together. And these small, tiny ways really add up,” said Gina. ”It's generosity breeds generosity. I feel really excited to be part of this building to see what happens here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jessica is a freelance theater director, and she told me that her prospects have become extremely uncertain, very quickly. All of her upcoming theater productions have been canceled, and the same is true industry-wide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is all I've really practiced as a trade, as a craft, my entire life,” she told me. “I'm not going to lie — the other night, I sort of threw myself into a little heap. And I and I keep saying, well, we're going to get through this. There will come a time when we return to normal. But will we? Will we ever be able to return to normal? I don't know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They told me that they’ve made the difficult decision to leave. Gina’s 74-year-old mother lives in Antioch and doesn’t have anyone to take care of her. They worry that the longer they spend in a building with 180-odd people, the likelier they are to pick up the coronavirus and bring it back to Gina’s mother.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I either need to choose being with her, to be able to go get things for her just to keep her in the house, or we need to really commit to this land-based cruise ship we live on — which is so big and has so many people coming in and out,” said Gina.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So they’ve packed their suitcases for a month and said goodbye to their neighbors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s right about the sanitation issue. Our building’s maintenance man has gone home, and there is no cleaning regime, which I suspect is true of many large apartment buildings here in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a building like mine, where space is limited, it’s nice to be able to open your door and have a conversation with someone you meet by the elevators or in the mailroom. But each of those touch points now could be vectors for infection. Elevator buttons. Door knobs. I’ve taken to wearing gloves just to go downstairs or when I’m in the laundry room. When people see you inside an elevator they’re waiting for, they give a tight smile and wait for the next one. Even the mailroom has started to feel a little snug.

I think a lot of people in my residency program, myself included, are very likely to get it and are very likely to do fine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Katie has been on the pediatrics ward for the past three weeks. She sees children who have been admitted because their parents are afraid they might have COVID-19. All medical staff must wear personal protective equipment — essentially hazmat suits — and masks around the children, which is profoundly unsettling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are nurses wearing the suits, and there's multiple doctors coming in wearing the suits. It’s scary,” she said. She tries to defuse the fear by making her young patients smile. “I have some stickers that my mom sent for St. Patrick's Day. They're all green. And so I have been bringing in stickers and putting them on my suit. Or I’ll draw like a smiley face, to be a big yellow smiley-face person.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Katie’s supervisor has told her group that they’re running a marathon, and so far they’ve only run half a mile. They need to remember to pace themselves. Luckily, Katie is an actual marathon runner — she’s done three of them — so she knows when to push herself. Her freezer is stuffed with homemade dinners prepared by her mother — a source of comfort at the end of another long day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Somehow, she’s had to find a way to teach her combined classroom of kindergarten and first grade students from her apartment on the fourth floor. Eurich has taught at Aurora School in Oakland for 15 years. The school closed down so quickly that no one had time to grab enough teaching supplies for a month, let alone the rest of the school year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you hear about teaching kindergarten remotely, you just have to laugh ... because how is that even humanly possible?” she said. “It's been very hard not knowing, because I've felt competent at my job for a very long time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexa has 16 kids in her classroom. She manages to video chat with four of them each day, in addition to checking in regularly with teachers and parents. She’s trying to keep up with the lessons her kids were learning two weeks ago, but she has to improvise with whatever books the students have around the house. They have to be trained to talk to her through a computer screen. It can be hard to connect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know without a doubt that the best way we humans learn is through a relationship. And not being with them physically when they're at this developmental stage is very trying to the relationship,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s also been trying for her. Because she is in remote meetings all day, her husband has to stay in the bedroom for hours at a time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I've been working from, like, six o'clock in the morning to about six o'clock at night,” she said. “And I am still in love with teaching. I love my job. But I'm not in love with this job right now. I have to learn how to do it in a way that feels wrong to me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11809728\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11809728\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-800x637.jpg\" alt=\"Grant Eshoo (L) and Guillaume Chartier have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching “Star Trek: The Next Generation” after they finish the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room.\" width=\"800\" height=\"637\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-800x637.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/03/RS42445_Grant-Eshoo-L-and-Guillaume-Charter_credit-Guillaume-Chartier-2-qut.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grant Eshoo (L) and Guillaume Chartier have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' after they finish the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Guillaume Charter)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Staying Sane Inside Four Walls\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>I asked my neighbors what they are doing to stay sane amid deeply uncertain circumstances. My neighbor Guillaume Chartier and his husband Grant Eshoo have been baking lemon meringue pie and watching “Star Trek: The Next Generation” after they have finished the day’s work at their improvised desks in the living room. (Guillaume is an animator, and Grant works for Alameda County).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They chose to re-watch Star Trek for its nostalgia, but are finding that it holds surprising relevance to our present moment on Earth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was an episode where they were facing a lethal epidemic and they had to take measures to contain it,” said Guillaume. Of course, they succeeded — thanks to Dr. Beverly Crusher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It displays a very earnest, optimistic outlook on humankind. And we're just the kind of nerds that we enjoy watching it together,” he added with a laugh. “It's all imaginary settings, but it touches on very current real human conditions and phenomena.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My second-floor neighbor Judith Rosenberg is in her mid-70s. She reckons she now spends 90% of her time indoors, except for a brisk daily walk or to pick up groceries. She escapes into serial mysteries and spy novels by authors like John le Carré and Charles Cumming. She also emails with her friends, which alleviates some of the “overriding sadness” she has started to feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have felt depression in my life. I’ve felt all sorts of emotions, but I don't get sad very much. This is a deep sadness,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her other great comfort is music. Judy has a gleaming concert piano in her apartment. Her specialty is musical improvisation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel a certain life force when I’m playing,” she told me. “When I sit down to play, there's something about that experience that makes me feel more alive in a way. And it is a great gift.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The homeless community was already living in crisis mode, she says. This just adds another terrifying layer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11739894/bay-area-has-3rd-largest-homeless-population-in-country-nearly-70-have-no-shelter\">more than 34,000 unhoused people\u003c/a> in the Bay Area, the majority of whom live in crowded, unsheltered conditions, often without basic sanitation resources. That makes them among the most susceptible to contracting and spreading the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11807409' label='Resources for the homeless']“People on the street don't have access to resources — to the things you’re supposed to have to stay safe from this virus,” she says. “When you have no running water, washing your hands, keeping your stuff clean is a struggle. These are things we deal with every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As cities throughout the region \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11807409/coronavirus-what-bay-area-counties-are-doing-for-homeless-residents-and-how-you-can-help\">scramble to secure shelter and emergency services\u003c/a> for some of their unhoused residents, Tiny and her team of collaborators have taken matters into their own hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, Tiny's group, along with volunteers from United Front Against Displacement and Self-Help Hunger Program, distributed mostly donated cleaning and sanitation supplies to homeless residents living in encampments in West and East Oakland and in San Francisco's Tenderloin District.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tiny says her group had been handing out food and other critical supplies long before anyone even heard of the coronavirus. But now they're now doubling down on those efforts, scrambling to get hold of as many cleaning and healing materials as they can in an effort to fill the large gap left by the many homeless service providers that have had to scale back their services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is called interdependence, and we do it with or without a virus, because we're struggling with a virus called poverty,” she says, noting the underlying current of mutual aid that circulates within the homeless community. Homeless people may be vulnerable, she adds, but many are also impressively resourceful. “People outside have a lot of skills and are doing their darndest to stay alive and clean and organized.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As people swarm supermarkets and hoard materials, Tiny says, supplies have been increasingly hard to come by, and she is appealing to community members to “redistribute” anything they might not need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To that end, her group is now accepting donations of food, cleaning products and clean clothing, tents and sleeping bags, which can be dropped off at their site at 8032 MacArthur Street in East Oakland.

Gavin Newsom that purports to suspend evictions statewide\u003c/a>, calling it useless and misleading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom announced the moratorium on Friday, saying it would provide relief to tenants who have been laid off, furloughed or seen their hours slashed while the state grapples with the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Today we just established a new overlay for the state of California that denies the capacity for enforcement and court proceedings for any eviction through May 31,” Newsom said Friday. “So for tenants, through May 31, there will be no eviction proceedings, there will be no enforcement as it relates to inability to pay for COVID-19.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But eviction defense attorneys say it doesn’t do any of those things. Brian Augusta, an attorney with the California Rural Legal Assistance Foundation, says it instead creates chaos in the courts and causes unnecessary confusion for workers who've been asked to stay at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"State Sen. Scott Wiener\"]'Millions of Californians are struggling during the greatest economic dislocation in nearly a century. They deserve a complete moratorium on evictions ... so that they can focus on health and health only.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 1 million new unemployment claims were filed in California between March 13 and March 25, Newsom said Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It doesn’t do anything,” Augusta said. “I’m really disappointed in the scope of this order.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although it’s being billed as a moratorium on evictions, the order only delays a tenant's legal window for responding in court – allowing them 60 days to respond, rather than five days – when a landlord files an eviction. It doesn’t stop new evictions from being filed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the extended time is only allowed if certain conditions apply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants must provide documentation proving they were unable to pay rent because they’ve contracted COVID-19 or were caring for someone who has, have lost wages due to the statewide shelter-in-place order or had to miss work to care for a child who is no longer in school or daycare. Evictions unrelated to COVID-19, such as owner-move-in under the Ellis Act or for any breach of the lease unrelated to rent payments, would still be allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jackie Zaneri, an attorney with the Oakland-based nonprofit Centro Legal de la Raza called the order “entirely useless” for tenants and tenant advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is going to mislead people,” Zaneri said. “People are going to think that they are protected when they are not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added, “No one is protected by this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if a tenant does provide the required documentation, they still have to go to court to prove they meet the conditions, said Silvana Naguib, a supervising staff attorney with the Los Angeles-based pro bono law firm, Public Counsel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Otherwise, how is the court going to determine you meet that criteria?” she said. “You have to show that you notified your landlord, that you provided documentation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the tenant doesn’t show up in court, the judge must issue a default order, which means the landlord can move forward with the eviction. When that happens, a notice is sent to the sheriff’s department, telling the sheriff to enforce the eviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor’s order says sheriff’s departments shouldn’t evict anyone protected from the order, but again, Naguib says it places the burden on the sheriff to determine who meets the criteria for protection and who doesn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naguib says even if the tenant is able to repay the rent on April 15, for example, rather than April 1 when it was due, he or she can still be evicted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any failure to timely pay rent is still grounds for an eviction” she said. “So nothing in this order prevents them from being evicted come June 1.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Coronavirus Coverage' tag='coronavirus']Jesse Melgar, a spokesman for Newsom's office, defended the governor's order, saying it would immediately provide relief to renters in cities and counties around the state where local leaders have not implemented their own moratoriums.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These protections provide a strong, statewide foundation that cities can build upon,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friday’s order won’t override \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809099/a-guide-to-bay-area-eviction-moratoriums-during-the-coronavirus-crisis\">any measures that cities or counties have already enacted\u003c/a> or could enact in the future that offer tenants more protections from evictions.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated 6:20 p.m. Friday, March 27\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants who’ve been laid off, furloughed, or seen their hours slashed due to the coronavirus pandemic were told they’d get some relief under a statewide moratorium on eviction enforcement announced by Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday. Newsom’s move came after advocacy organizations and some state lawmakers made repeated calls to the governor to provide protection to renters while residents are being told to shelter in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s moratorium, which goes into effect immediately, ostensibly bans the enforcement of eviction orders through May 31 and prohibits landlords from evicting tenants if they’re unable to pay rent because they’ve contracted COVID-19, are caring for someone who has, have lost wages due to the statewide shelter-in-place order or have had to miss work to care for a child who is no longer in school or daycare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants rights groups and some lawmakers, however, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809328/newsoms-eviction-moratorium-useless-misleading-tenants-groups-say\">were quick to sharply criticize Newsom’s moratorium, calling it misleading\u003c/a>. They said although it’s being billed as a moratorium on evictions, the order only delays a tenant’s legal window for responding to an eviction filing in court, and that it doesn’t stop new evictions from being filed. Evictions unrelated to COVID-19, such as owner-move-in under the Ellis Act or for any breach of the lease unrelated to rent payments, would still be allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s order won’t preempt any measures from cities or counties that offer more protection than the statewide order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some answers to common questions about renters and tenants protections in the Bay Area:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What do the eviction moratoriums do?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A number of \u003ca href=\"https://antievictionmappingproject.github.io/covid-19-map/\">cities and counties across the Bay Area, as well as states nationwide\u003c/a>, have passed their own restrictions on evictions. Some go further than others in terms of tenant protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, landlords are barred from removing tenants who can’t make rent this month because of reduced income or job loss due to COVID-19. Some examples of that are layoffs due to the shelter-in-place order or from being quarantined, sick or having to pay for medical expenses. The city’s eviction moratorium is in place for 30 days, and renters have an additional month to pay back rent or apply for an extension. Mayor London Breed also has the authority to extend the order, if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara, a temporary moratorium covers residential and small business tenants within the county limits. The order, which was approved on Tuesday, lasts until May 31 and gives tenants an additional 120 days to pay back rent, if they have lost income related to the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council is holding a special meeting Friday to consider a proposed emergency ordinance that would ban evictions against tenants for any reason, also known as just-cause evictions, until May 31. An exception is if a tenant poses an imminent threat to the health or safety of others on the property. In addition, the proposed moratorium would ban rent increases, late payment fees and evictions for residential and commercial tenants due to coronavirus-related job loss or income reduction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More Coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]Evictions already filed in San Francisco and Alameda counties will also be on hold, for now. Both counties’ superior courts and sheriff’s offices say ongoing evictions won’t be enforced during the shelter-in-place order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because local governments have the authority to introduce their own moratorium on evictions, the rules vary depending on where you live. Please visit the website for the city or county that you live in for more information.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Do I have to pay rent on April 1?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, rent is still due, if you can afford to pay it. City and county officials are urging those who are still healthy and employed to continue their monthly rent payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Temporary eviction bans do not mean rent payments have been waived, and once the public health crisis is over, renters will be expected to pay back rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you cannot make rent on April 1 due to coronavirus-related circumstances, like a reduction in hours or loss of employment, you must declare in writing the reason you cannot pay – and provide documentation – no more than seven days after rent is due.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How do I prove I lost income during COVID-19?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Both the new statewide eviction enforcement moratorium and most of the local moratoriums passed in the Bay Area only apply to tenants who have been financially impacted by the coronavirus pandemic, which means it’s up to the renter to demonstrate proof of lost income. That could be a recent pay stub that shows a loss of hours. It could also be a letter or a text from your employer, showing the business has closed or an application for unemployment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gig workers could show a loss in Lyft rides or Postmates deliveries. With many districts closing schools, according to some of the ordinances, tenants could prove their inability to pay rent because they had to stay home from work to care for their children or increased expenses for child care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, tenants need to submit documentation within one week of informing their landlord they won’t be making April rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What do I do if I receive an eviction notice during the COVID-19 pandemic?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Tenants who need help with fighting an eviction should immediately contact a local legal aid office. In addition to the statewide eviction enforcement moratorium, most of the local COVID-19 tenant protections vary in strength and depend on where you live. For example, the California moratorium as well as moratoriums in Santa Clara County and San Francisco only protect tenants facing nonpayment and no-fault evictions because of the coronavirus crisis. Landlords can still file an eviction against you, also known as an unlawful detainer, for other reasons like causing a nuisance or damaging property, or if it’s a matter involving violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do receive an eviction of any kind, tenant advocacy agencies say they are still open and operating in the Bay Area, although most have transitioned their clinics to remote work. They can still be reached by email, phone or on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What tenant resources are there, and where can I go to get help with an eviction?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>San Francisco:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Eviction Defense Collaborative, (415) 947-0797\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Housing Rights Committee of San Francisco, (415) 703-8644\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>San Francisco Tenants Union, (415) 282-6622\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Chinatown Community Development Center, (415) 984-2728\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Alameda County:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>East Bay Community Law Center: (510) 548-4040, ext. 629\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Eviction Defense Center: (510) 452 4541\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Centro Legal de la Raza: (510) 437-1554\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bay Area Legal Aid: (888) 382-3405\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Law Foundation of Silicon Valley (408) 280-2424\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Sacred Heart Community Services, (408) 278-2166\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>San Mateo:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Legal Aid of San Mateo, (650) 558-0915\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>For more tenant assistance, the statewide advocacy nonprofit \u003ca href=\"http://www.tenantstogether.org/resource-directory\">Tenants Together has a list of other available resources\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED staff writer Erin Baldassari contributed to this story.

Gavin Newsom on Friday. Newsom’s move came after advocacy organizations and some state lawmakers made repeated calls to the governor to provide protection to renters while residents are being told to shelter in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s moratorium, which goes into effect immediately, ostensibly bans the enforcement of eviction orders through May 31 and prohibits landlords from evicting tenants if they’re unable to pay rent because they’ve contracted COVID-19, are caring for someone who has, have lost wages due to the statewide shelter-in-place order or have had to miss work to care for a child who is no longer in school or daycare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants rights groups and some lawmakers, however, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809328/newsoms-eviction-moratorium-useless-misleading-tenants-groups-say\">were quick to sharply criticize Newsom’s moratorium, calling it misleading\u003c/a>. They said although it’s being billed as a moratorium on evictions, the order only delays a tenant’s legal window for responding to an eviction filing in court, and that it doesn’t stop new evictions from being filed. Evictions unrelated to COVID-19, such as owner-move-in under the Ellis Act or for any breach of the lease unrelated to rent payments, would still be allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s order won’t preempt any measures from cities or counties that offer more protection than the statewide order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some answers to common questions about renters and tenants protections in the Bay Area:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What do the eviction moratoriums do?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A number of \u003ca href=\"https://antievictionmappingproject.github.io/covid-19-map/\">cities and counties across the Bay Area, as well as states nationwide\u003c/a>, have passed their own restrictions on evictions. Some go further than others in terms of tenant protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, landlords are barred from removing tenants who can’t make rent this month because of reduced income or job loss due to COVID-19. Some examples of that are layoffs due to the shelter-in-place order or from being quarantined, sick or having to pay for medical expenses. The city’s eviction moratorium is in place for 30 days, and renters have an additional month to pay back rent or apply for an extension. Mayor London Breed also has the authority to extend the order, if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara, a temporary moratorium covers residential and small business tenants within the county limits. The order, which was approved on Tuesday, lasts until May 31 and gives tenants an additional 120 days to pay back rent, if they have lost income related to the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council is holding a special meeting Friday to consider a proposed emergency ordinance that would ban evictions against tenants for any reason, also known as just-cause evictions, until May 31. An exception is if a tenant poses an imminent threat to the health or safety of others on the property. In addition, the proposed moratorium would ban rent increases, late payment fees and evictions for residential and commercial tenants due to coronavirus-related job loss or income reduction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Both counties’ superior courts and sheriff’s offices say ongoing evictions won’t be enforced during the shelter-in-place order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because local governments have the authority to introduce their own moratorium on evictions, the rules vary depending on where you live. Please visit the website for the city or county that you live in for more information.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Do I have to pay rent on April 1?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Yes, rent is still due, if you can afford to pay it. City and county officials are urging those who are still healthy and employed to continue their monthly rent payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Temporary eviction bans do not mean rent payments have been waived, and once the public health crisis is over, renters will be expected to pay back rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you cannot make rent on April 1 due to coronavirus-related circumstances, like a reduction in hours or loss of employment, you must declare in writing the reason you cannot pay – and provide documentation – no more than seven days after rent is due.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That could be a recent pay stub that shows a loss of hours. It could also be a letter or a text from your employer, showing the business has closed or an application for unemployment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gig workers could show a loss in Lyft rides or Postmates deliveries. With many districts closing schools, according to some of the ordinances, tenants could prove their inability to pay rent because they had to stay home from work to care for their children or increased expenses for child care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, tenants need to submit documentation within one week of informing their landlord they won’t be making April rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What do I do if I receive an eviction notice during the COVID-19 pandemic?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Tenants who need help with fighting an eviction should immediately contact a local legal aid office. In addition to the statewide eviction enforcement moratorium, most of the local COVID-19 tenant protections vary in strength and depend on where you live. For example, the California moratorium as well as moratoriums in Santa Clara County and San Francisco only protect tenants facing nonpayment and no-fault evictions because of the coronavirus crisis. Landlords can still file an eviction against you, also known as an unlawful detainer, for other reasons like causing a nuisance or damaging property, or if it’s a matter involving violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do receive an eviction of any kind, tenant advocacy agencies say they are still open and operating in the Bay Area, although most have transitioned their clinics to remote work. They can still be reached by email, phone or on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>What tenant resources are there, and where can I go to get help with an eviction?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>San Francisco:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Eviction Defense Collaborative, (415) 947-0797\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Housing Rights Committee of San Francisco, (415) 703-8644\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>San Francisco Tenants Union, (415) 282-6622\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Chinatown Community Development Center, (415) 984-2728\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Alameda County:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>East Bay Community Law Center: (510) 548-4040, ext. 629\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Eviction Defense Center: (510) 452 4541\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Centro Legal de la Raza: (510) 437-1554\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bay Area Legal Aid: (888) 382-3405\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Law Foundation of Silicon Valley (408) 280-2424\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Sacred Heart Community Services, (408) 278-2166\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>San Mateo:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Legal Aid of San Mateo, (650) 558-0915\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>For more tenant assistance, the statewide advocacy nonprofit \u003ca href=\"http://www.tenantstogether.org/resource-directory\">Tenants Together has a list of other available resources\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED staff writer Erin Baldassari contributed to this story.

Gavin Newsom said he had reached agreements with Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase, Citibank and US Bank — along with 200 state chartered banks and credit unions. The deal, he said, only applies to California customers who have been directly impacted by the pandemic and its economic fallout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bank of America agreed to only a 30-day suspension of mortgages and foreclosures, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It is significant we have some consistency and we don’t have a patchwork — one bank to another,” Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Francisco Dueñas, executive director of Housing Now\"]‘Living in California with our housing being so expensive, there’s already a lot of anxiety around staying in your home.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 1 million Californians have filed unemployment claims since March 13, Newsom said Wednesday.

On Wednesday, a coalition of 38 lawmakers sent a letter to Newsom urging him to issue a prohibition on all evictions, for whatever cause, unless the tenant poses a serious health or safety threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“During this emergency, our state needs one clear order that covers all tenants and does not require proof of a COVID-related loss of income that may be difficult to document,” the letter reads, noting rent for many tenants will be due April 1. “We need to keep everyone who is currently housed where they are so they can shelter in place, follow recommended guidelines and help California flatten the curve.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laura Yopihua, 33, runs a house-cleaning business and said all of her scheduled jobs have been canceled. Her husband, who works in construction, has been told to stay home and isn’t working either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They pay $1,900 to rent their 3-bedroom apartment in Concord, she said. That along with insurance and other bills, plus the cost of food for their family of four, has made them extremely worried about how long they’ll be able to survive without working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re scared because at the end of the month, we don’t know what to do,” she said. “We’d prefer to buy food than [pay for] rent right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"coronavirus\"]Francisco Dueñas, executive director of Housing Now, a statewide housing advocacy group, said the cost of housing in the Bay Area, which was already unaffordable before the coronavirus struck, will now be all that much harder to pay with millions of residents out of work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Housing Now recently sent a \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RgHSti5YfPYAauV0d-daeGZtqZTTc_iK/view\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">letter signed by 149 other organizations\u003c/a> urging Newsom to enact an eviction moratorium.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Living in California with our housing being so expensive, there’s already a lot of anxiety around staying in your home,” Dueñas said. “With people losing their jobs, that has only grown.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, the U.S. Senate was moving toward a vote on a $2 trillion relief package for individuals, states and businesses impacted by the pandemic. The measure includes an additional $600 per week for people who’ve filed unemployment insurance claims in their states — on top of whatever amount the state is paying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Newsom on Wednesday acknowledged that may not be enough for people who are still “struggling day in and day out to make ends meet, struggling to feed their families, to feed themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We still need to do more,” he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Her husband, who works in construction, has been told to stay home and isn’t working either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They pay $1,900 to rent their 3-bedroom apartment in Concord, she said.

So far, the city has communicated with 31 hoteliers who said they have rooms available for rent, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first priority will be given to people who have tested positive for COVID-19 or who are awaiting test results but don’t have a home where they can quarantine alone. This could include people experiencing homelessness, living in residential hotels or other congregate settings, such as shelters. But it could also include firefighters, police officers or health workers who don’t want to expose their families to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A coalition of San Francisco County supervisors is also pushing for the city to offer hotel rooms to anyone who is homeless and doesn’t have anywhere to shelter in place – regardless of whether they are experiencing symptoms of the virus or are considered at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe that just like you and I, they should have an opportunity to keep themselves safe,” said Supervisor Hillary Ronen. “[They should be able] to shelter in place and keep all of us safe.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 300 rooms were available as of Monday, Rhorer said. The city has leased rooms for 60 people so far. The city hopes to allow people to move into more rooms as early as Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials also intend to use hotel rooms to relieve pressure on hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Grant Colfax, the head of San Francisco’s Department of Health, said “twenty to thirty” patients at Laguna Honda Hospital right now are well enough to get care outside of the hospital and will be offered hotel rooms. He described the patients as people “physically and mentally able to be supported outside a hospital setting,” who are not under investigation for having the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The news came as counties across the Bay Area mobilize resources to protect residents who are homeless during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office announced last week that it would spend up to $150 million in emergency funding to lease hotel rooms and purchase trailers to house people experiencing homelessness and help slow the spread of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is using $50 million to buy about 1,300 travel trailers and to help cities and counties lease hotel rooms, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday. More than 950 hotels and motels across the state have been identified as potential lease sites, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Sandy Perry, president of the Affordable Housing Network of Santa Clara County\"]‘If this begins to spread, there will be a lot of casualties. So people are upset and fearful.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is also distributing $100 million of the emergency funding to cities and counties to support shelter services and respond to the outbreak among homeless residents in their communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assuming a potential 56% attack rate, state public health officials anticipate some 60,000 homeless people could contract COVID-19, Newsom said, just one of the many scenarios the state is modeling. If it manifests, California would need upwards of 19,000 new hospital beds, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That creates a deep point of anxiety for the existing population but moreover for our health care delivery system,” Newsom said, “and our capacity to move people in and out of the shelter safely without contacting other people and putting them at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The intensified search for places where people living in encampments and shelters can self-isolate came just three days after a man in Santa Clara County became the first person in California experiencing homelessness to die of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Clara County’s Public Health Department declined to say where the man was living or if he could have exposed others to the virus. But news of his death had many people in the South Bay’s homeless communities on edge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public health officials said that the virus can spread more quickly in shelters and encampments because of the close proximity to others and limited access to clean water and soap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeless people are also more vulnerable to the disease because many have underlying health conditions.

So far, the city has communicated with 31 hoteliers who said they have rooms available for rent, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first priority will be given to people who have tested positive for COVID-19 or who are awaiting test results but don’t have a home where they can quarantine alone. This could include people experiencing homelessness, living in residential hotels or other congregate settings, such as shelters. But it could also include firefighters, police officers or health workers who don’t want to expose their families to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A coalition of San Francisco County supervisors is also pushing for the city to offer hotel rooms to anyone who is homeless and doesn’t have anywhere to shelter in place – regardless of whether they are experiencing symptoms of the virus or are considered at risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe that just like you and I, they should have an opportunity to keep themselves safe,” said Supervisor Hillary Ronen. “[They should be able] to shelter in place and keep all of us safe.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 300 rooms were available as of Monday, Rhorer said. The city has leased rooms for 60 people so far. The city hopes to allow people to move into more rooms as early as Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials also intend to use hotel rooms to relieve pressure on hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Grant Colfax, the head of San Francisco’s Department of Health, said “twenty to thirty” patients at Laguna Honda Hospital right now are well enough to get care outside of the hospital and will be offered hotel rooms. He described the patients as people “physically and mentally able to be supported outside a hospital setting,” who are not under investigation for having the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The news came as counties across the Bay Area mobilize resources to protect residents who are homeless during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office announced last week that it would spend up to $150 million in emergency funding to lease hotel rooms and purchase trailers to house people experiencing homelessness and help slow the spread of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is using $50 million to buy about 1,300 travel trailers and to help cities and counties lease hotel rooms, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday. More than 950 hotels and motels across the state have been identified as potential lease sites, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If it manifests, California would need upwards of 19,000 new hospital beds, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That creates a deep point of anxiety for the existing population but moreover for our health care delivery system,” Newsom said, “and our capacity to move people in and out of the shelter safely without contacting other people and putting them at risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The intensified search for places where people living in encampments and shelters can self-isolate came just three days after a man in Santa Clara County became the first person in California experiencing homelessness to die of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Clara County’s Public Health Department declined to say where the man was living or if he could have exposed others to the virus. But news of his death had many people in the South Bay’s homeless communities on edge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public health officials said that the virus can spread more quickly in shelters and encampments because of the close proximity to others and limited access to clean water and soap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeless people are also more vulnerable to the disease because many have underlying health conditions.

"content": "\u003cp>Yomila, a mother of seven from San Leandro, rushed into the Hayward Hall of Justice on Monday — hours before a shelter-in-place order would be announced — to file a response to an eviction notice. She was three days late on paying rent, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m fighting really hard to keep a roof over my head,” Yomila said in Spanish, declining to give her last name because of a domestic violence situation. Three of her children have disabilities, she said, making them especially vulnerable to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now, it’s impossible to find another place to rent,” Yomila said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As California tries to slow the spread of the new coronavirus, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday issued an \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/3.16.20-Executive-Order.pdf\">executive order\u003c/a> urging local governments to halt evictions if tenants are unable to pay rent due to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some cities, including Oakland, San Francisco and San Jose, have already taken steps to do that. But rather than forcing local governments to pass moratoriums city-by-city and county-by-county, many activists are saying the governor should be doing much more by imposing a statewide freeze, regardless of whether the evictions are related to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[The governor] punted responsibility to over-burdened counties and cities to deal with this problem themselves, when, in my opinion, they should be focusing on delivering emergency services to their citizens,\" said Meghan Gordon, director of housing practice for the East Bay Community Law Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The executive order, which will remain in effect until May 31, also requests that banks and other financial institutions delay foreclosures if a mortgage holder’s inability to pay is related to lost wages caused by the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Monday evening, 392 people were confirmed to have tested positive for COVID-19 in California, including more than 250 in the Bay Area. Newsom said Monday evening that one of the eight deaths in the state so far was a person experiencing homelessness in Santa Clara County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, said he plans to file a bill this week that would go further than the governor’s order and freeze evictions statewide for a period of up to one year or as long as the governor’s state of emergency is in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the ways we can minimize the effects of the virus is to reduce human contact,” Ting said. “Human contact is not reduced when people have to live on the street, oftentimes in very crowded, unsanitary conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ting added, “If people have a home, we want to keep them in their home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The calls to halt evictions come amid a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11806988/sheltering-in-place-what-you-need-to-know\">shelter-in-place order\u003c/a> for six Bay Area counties, including Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara. Santa Cruz County is also ordering residents to shelter at home. The orders restrict most residents to their residences for anything but essential activities, such as visiting a grocery store, picking up prescriptions or caring for a loved one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And on Monday, the San Francisco and Alameda County sheriff’s offices said they would stop enforcing all evictions as residents are told to shelter in place. The Alameda County Superior Court on Monday also said it would close all of its courthouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt. Ray Kelly, a spokesman for the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office, said it’s counterproductive to enforce evictions while also operating an emergency management center that is seeking vacant hotel rooms for people who are homeless and who need to self-isolate during the current outbreak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re in an unprecedented time,” he said. “Right now, we’re concerned about the most vulnerable people in our community, and a lot of those people are people who ultimately end up in the eviction process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"Coronavirus Coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some landlords were concerned that without collecting rent, they wouldn’t be able to pay their mortgages. Yolanda Chavez, who described herself as a “mom and pop landlord,\" spoke at a San Jose City Council meeting on March 10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have to make my payments,” Chavez said. “How am I going to make my payments, pay my mortgages, if the renter doesn’t pay theirs?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ting’s proposed legislation would include a provision to block home foreclosures while an eviction moratorium is in place, he said, so that property owners could work with their tenants and their banks on a payment plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor's order does not relieve tenants from eventually paying their rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A moratorium doesn’t mean that you don’t owe the money back,” Ting said. “The owner would have to pay the money back, and the same with the tenant.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

She was three days late on paying rent, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m fighting really hard to keep a roof over my head,” Yomila said in Spanish, declining to give her last name because of a domestic violence situation. Three of her children have disabilities, she said, making them especially vulnerable to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now, it’s impossible to find another place to rent,” Yomila said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As California tries to slow the spread of the new coronavirus, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday issued an \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/3.16.20-Executive-Order.pdf\">executive order\u003c/a> urging local governments to halt evictions if tenants are unable to pay rent due to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some cities, including Oakland, San Francisco and San Jose, have already taken steps to do that. But rather than forcing local governments to pass moratoriums city-by-city and county-by-county, many activists are saying the governor should be doing much more by imposing a statewide freeze, regardless of whether the evictions are related to the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Newsom said Monday evening that one of the eight deaths in the state so far was a person experiencing homelessness in Santa Clara County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, said he plans to file a bill this week that would go further than the governor’s order and freeze evictions statewide for a period of up to one year or as long as the governor’s state of emergency is in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the ways we can minimize the effects of the virus is to reduce human contact,” Ting said. “Human contact is not reduced when people have to live on the street, oftentimes in very crowded, unsanitary conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ting added, “If people have a home, we want to keep them in their home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The calls to halt evictions come amid a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11806988/sheltering-in-place-what-you-need-to-know\">shelter-in-place order\u003c/a> for six Bay Area counties, including Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara. Santa Cruz County is also ordering residents to shelter at home. The orders restrict most residents to their residences for anything but essential activities, such as visiting a grocery store, picking up prescriptions or caring for a loved one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And on Monday, the San Francisco and Alameda County sheriff’s offices said they would stop enforcing all evictions as residents are told to shelter in place. The Alameda County Superior Court on Monday also said it would close all of its courthouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sgt. Ray Kelly, a spokesman for the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office, said it’s counterproductive to enforce evictions while also operating an emergency management center that is seeking vacant hotel rooms for people who are homeless and who need to self-isolate during the current outbreak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re in an unprecedented time,” he said. “Right now, we’re concerned about the most vulnerable people in our community, and a lot of those people are people who ultimately end up in the eviction process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
