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.",

It was the first time I have ever heard or read anything in my whole life that so completely resonated with my experience as a young immigrant child translating for my mother. We immigrated to the Peninsula Bay Area when I was 5 years old, from Ukraine. I made so many calls, sent so many messages, did so many tasks as a kid that required me to translate between Ukrainian and English. These experiences forced me and many other kids to grow up too quickly. It’s now only exacerbated during these tumultuous times. Now I work in the state Legislature, hoping to be a part of improving how information is shared with all communities in our state, especially those most in need like Maggie’s family. — \u003cstrong>Anya\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I could share so many stories of parent/teacher conferences, doctor's visits, immigration appointments or visits from the landlord (among other things) when I would hear the familiar \"Ven, ven, Marisol... Dime qué dijo.\" Over the years, I picked up on certain words that I knew were important to know in preparation for these encounters, but there was always that moment of panic when an unfamiliar word would pop up.

It was the first time I have ever heard or read anything in my whole life that so completely resonated with my experience as a young immigrant child translating for my mother. We immigrated to the Peninsula Bay Area when I was 5 years old, from Ukraine. I made so many calls, sent so many messages, did so many tasks as a kid that required me to translate between Ukrainian and English. These experiences forced me and many other kids to grow up too quickly. It’s now only exacerbated during these tumultuous times. Now I work in the state Legislature, hoping to be a part of improving how information is shared with all communities in our state, especially those most in need like Maggie’s family. — \u003cstrong>Anya\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I could share so many stories of parent/teacher conferences, doctor's visits, immigration appointments or visits from the landlord (among other things) when I would hear the familiar \"Ven, ven, Marisol... Dime qué dijo.\" Over the years, I picked up on certain words that I knew were important to know in preparation for these encounters, but there was always that moment of panic when an unfamiliar word would pop up. I would immediately imagine the possibility of being held back a grade, or having to pay extra for something, or leading to a misdiagnosis. Nothing that bad ever happened, but that pressure was always present. (As a teacher) my hope now is to be a part of and create learning communities and spaces where our students and our families can engage without having to imagine worst-case scenarios. — \u003cstrong>Marisol\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11831200\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11831200\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda.jpg 1900w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda-800x539.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda-160x108.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Glenda-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">'Being the child of an immigrant always comes with its own series of 'club rules',' said Glenda Cota, who grew up supporting her family with her language skills. \u003ccite>(Glenda Cota)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>...but for many, there are positive memories and pride\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Being the child of an immigrant always comes with its own series of \"club rules.\" If you know them, you know them.

It was just her and I, navigating our way through public transportation. I was intimidated by the front desk ladies, and scared of hospitals, afraid to miss important information to translate. However I was proud to stick up for my grandmother (the staff was not always kind) and be able to help her. To this day I still feel the same compassion to help translate for co-workers, family members and strangers that I see that need help. We all need the power of information. — \u003cstrong>Zara\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was a period of time where I resented it a bit, because I felt like I was forced to grow up very quickly in order to help out when my parents didn't understand something. However, I learned to embrace my role because it was my way of giving back to my parents, for all that they have done for me. Growing up under the circumstances that I did is what forged the distinct Chicanx identity I have today. I knew what I was doing was important and bigger than me.

I am the first in my family to pursue a Master's degree and I chose to work in education because I want to work with youth who have gone through similar experiences. I want them to know that coming from an immigrant family is their superpower and to encourage them to keep advocating for their families even when times are hard. I also want to challenge our government agencies to be more inclusive of these immigrant experiences.

When I finally spoke, my voice was low and timid. I no longer recall what I said but luckily the judge sympathized with me. He asked me my age (I must have been 13 or 14 at the time) and then proceeded to tell me there were careers in the future for me. Nevertheless, the look I got from my mother told me I had failed.

The documents were provided by the Imperial County chapter of California Rural Legal Assistance Inc, a statewide legal aid organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Judicial Council — the governing body for the state court system chaired by state Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani G.

The council then extended the ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People being evicted from their homes is a public health and safety problem,” said Adriane Bracciale, directing attorney for the legal aid organization’s office in El Centro, the county seat. “That’s why this emergency rule was instituted so that people aren’t being kicked out of their homes during a contagious, deadly pandemic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bracciale said she discovered the issue when three separate renter households approached her legal aid clinic in the past few weeks with eviction “summonses” — orders for a renter to either challenge an eviction lawsuit in court or lose an eviction case by default.

The documents were provided by the Imperial County chapter of California Rural Legal Assistance Inc, a statewide legal aid organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Judicial Council — the governing body for the state court system chaired by state Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye — issued an \u003ca href=\"https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/coronavirus-covid-19-california-eviction-bans-and-tenant-protections.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">emergency rule\u003c/a> on April 6 barring local courts from going forward with most eviction cases, with the exception of cases involving threats to public health and safety. The council then extended the ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People being evicted from their homes is a public health and safety problem,” said Adriane Bracciale, directing attorney for the legal aid organization’s office in El Centro, the county seat. “That’s why this emergency rule was instituted so that people aren’t being kicked out of their homes during a contagious, deadly pandemic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bracciale said she discovered the issue when three separate renter households approached her legal aid clinic in the past few weeks with eviction “summonses” — orders for a renter to either challenge an eviction lawsuit in court or lose an eviction case by default. The first client who approached her office was being evicted for not paying rent after the pandemic hit, and claimed they couldn’t afford rent because of COVID-related financial hardship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom announced that on Tuesday the state had recorded more than 12,000 new coronavirus cases — its largest daily total yet. California now has the largest number of COVID-19 cases in the nation, surpassing New York, and California’s rates of hospitalization and death due to the respiratory illness have also soared in recent weeks. Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, Senate Republicans are struggling to craft a new round of federal aid. Although the White House dropped its demands for a payroll tax cut, which some GOP lawmakers opposed, big divisions remain over the scope of the relief package as unemployment benefits for millions of Americans are set to expire next week. Democrats on Capitol Hill are pushing for a $3 trillion relief package passed in the House of Representatives in May that would include aid to states like California facing massive budget deficits. Also this week, President Trump announced that the Republican National Convention that was set to take place next month in Jackson, Florida, has been canceled, citing concerns about the state’s surging rate of infections. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED politics and government senior editor\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Criminal Justice Reforms in Santa Clara County\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The national reckoning over racial injustice and police misconduct has reverberated throughout society and sharpened demands for criminal justice reforms — nationally and locally.

New rules and health guidelines are making the 60-game season unlike any other, for fans and players alike.

Gavin Newsom announced that on Tuesday the state had recorded more than 12,000 new coronavirus cases — its largest daily total yet. California now has the largest number of COVID-19 cases in the nation, surpassing New York, and California’s rates of hospitalization and death due to the respiratory illness have also soared in recent weeks. Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, Senate Republicans are struggling to craft a new round of federal aid. Although the White House dropped its demands for a payroll tax cut, which some GOP lawmakers opposed, big divisions remain over the scope of the relief package as unemployment benefits for millions of Americans are set to expire next week. Democrats on Capitol Hill are pushing for a $3 trillion relief package passed in the House of Representatives in May that would include aid to states like California facing massive budget deficits. Also this week, President Trump announced that the Republican National Convention that was set to take place next month in Jackson, Florida, has been canceled, citing concerns about the state’s surging rate of infections. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED politics and government senior editor\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Criminal Justice Reforms in Santa Clara County\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The national reckoning over racial injustice and police misconduct has reverberated throughout society and sharpened demands for criminal justice reforms — nationally and locally.

But they \u003cem>also\u003c/em> offer\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/travel-in-the-us.html\"> this specific guidance\u003c/a> to consider from the CDC, “before traveling away from your community”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Is the coronavirus spreading where you are traveling?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Are you or those you are traveling with more likely to get very sick from coronavirus?\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Will you be able to keep 6 feet of physical distance from others during or after your trip?\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The state’s official tourism body, Visit California, says that COVID-19 travel restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic “\u003ca href=\"https://www.visitcalifornia.com/latest-covid-19-coronavirus\">still allow travel in California\u003c/a>, and many tourism assets have reopened.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, essentially, recreational travel is strongly discouraged right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if you’re determined to travel despite the official guidance, or if you absolutely have to travel for an essential reason, there are at least certain strategies you might employ to reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus as much as possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Is International Travel Off the Table Right Now?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Basically, yes. The CDC recommends that you \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/faqs.html\">avoid all nonessential international travel\u003c/a> because of the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to the significant risk long-haul international flights pose to spreading the coronavirus globally, you could find yourself stuck in multiple sticky situations even if you’re able to book a flight. For one thing, several countries are currently barring entry to travelers from the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even before you leave, plans and reserved tickets could be thrown into total disarray as airlines are canceling many international flights and travel within another country can be totally unpredictable. If you manage to get \u003cem>on\u003c/em> your flight without cancellation, the country to which you’re traveling could change its travel rules and deny you entry as a non-citizen with very little notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11829695\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11829695\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane.jpg 1900w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Right now, international travel is strongly discouraged. \u003ccite>(C.

This isn’t to mention the possibility of travel restrictions within that country, and with bordering nations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lastly, as the CDC warns, choosing to travel internationally right now might mean having to remain outside the United States for “an indefinite length of time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What Are the Safety Basics for Domestic Travel?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The basic rules for any travel right now are the same for being outside your home at any time: wear your mask, distance as much as possible and wash your hands. Everything else would be about being an informed consumer and using your best judgement to keep risk as low as possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Per the state’s guidance, \u003ca href=\"https://covid19.ca.gov/stay-home-except-for-essential-needs/#:~:text=All%20individuals%20living%20in%20the,the%20Questions%20%26%20Answers%20below).\">do not travel if you are sick\u003c/a>, or if someone in your household has had the coronavirus in the last two weeks. Do not travel with someone who is sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state also recommends that if you choose to travel, you need to start by doing some in-depth planning. Check in on what COVID-19 infection and hospitalization rates are like with the local health department where you live, with the health department at your ultimate destination — and with health departments along your planned route, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"fly\">\u003c/a>What if I Really Have to Fly?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As the CDC says, flying will increase your risk for COVID-19. Even though their guidance confirms that most viruses and other germs don’t actually spread easily \u003cem>on\u003c/em> flights because of how air circulates and is filtered on airplanes, this kind of travel means you’re spending prolonged time in security lines and airport terminals, where you can be brought into close contact not just with others, but with surfaces that could be harboring the coronavirus. Being in an assigned seat also makes social distancing hard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both our experts — Dr. Yvonne Maldonado and Dr. Peter Chin-Hong — said \u003cem>they\u003c/em> really wouldn’t get on an airplane right now unless they absolutely had to, in the case, say, of a family emergency. But if you absolutely must get on a domestic flight, they recommend investigating the airline’s safety policies before you fly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do they keep middle seats empty to enable social distancing? Do they enforce face coverings?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bring disinfectant wipes and wipe down your seat and anything you touch in the bathroom, if you use it. Keep the air vent on by your seat, and choose a seat as close to the window as possible and as far away from where other people are sitting as possible. Bring your own food or make sure your food is pre-packaged if you purchase it in the airport or on the plane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And wear your mask at all times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11829701\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11829701\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel.jpg 1900w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The airline industry has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic \u003ccite>(Sourav Mishra/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What if someone’s sick with COVID-19 on your flight? The CDC says pilots have to notify them of all illnesses on a flight, and if a traveler is deemed a risk to public health, they’ll collaborate to contact any passengers or crew who might have been exposed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For that reason, says the CDC, make sure you give the airline your up-to-date, reliable contact information when making your reservation — so they can find you, to tell you if you’ve been in contact with someone with the coronavirus.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Are Some Places Safer to Travel to Than Others?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Dr. Chin-Hong advises that much like you’d research the weather at a potential destination, you should look up the COVID-19 case numbers and risk levels. Are their case numbers rising? Are they at risk of an overwhelmed health care system — one that wouldn’t be able to care for you, if you got sick too? How far would you have to drive home if things got bad?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take a look at a county tracker \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/projects/2020/coronavirus-tracker/app/california/index.html\">like this one\u003c/a> or the state’s own county monitoring list, and do your research. And remember that the more densely populated a place, the harder it will be to maintain social distancing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, while you may normally love exploring new regions when there \u003cem>isn’t\u003c/em> a pandemic raging, Dr. Maldonado says this is “not the time” to experiment with new travel destinations and all the unknowns they entail. Having a degree of familiarity with where you’re going — and whether the health care system could support you if you got sick and where the hospitals are — is incredibly important right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>I’m Choosing to Stay in a Rural Area With a Small Population.

It’s way less risky than taking a plane or a train right now. But by leaving your household and hitting the road, you’re still running the risk of spreading the coronavirus, and should take precautions — especially if you’re planning to drive longer distances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless you’re purposefully limiting your mileage, you’re going to need to get out of your car at certain times. It’s smart to plan your route and be aware of the COVID-19 risks in the areas you’re driving through — if you’re driving through a hot spot, you may wish to limit your stops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bring an ample supply of wipes to keep your car disinfected by wiping the steering wheel, surfaces, gearstick, parking brake and inside the dashboard every time you return to your car from a gas station, rest stop, restaurant or lodging — basically, from anywhere you’re around people or touching surfaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keep a sealed bag in your car for disposing of your used wipes and gloves. Stash your mask(s) safely somewhere where you can easily and quickly grab it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’re almost certainly going to need to stop for gas, so remember to wipe down gas pump handles with your disinfectant wipes. You might consider bringing a supply of gloves to wear when refueling and using gas station restrooms – just remember to avoid touching your face when you’re wearing them. When stopping for gas, wear your mask at all times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11829688\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11829688\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip.jpg 1900w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/road-trip-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Driving is undoubtedly safer than some other forms of transportation, but precautions are still necessary \u003ccite>(Kei Scampa/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>When stopping for food, always consider drive-thru, grab-and-go or take-out over in-restaurant dining. With the potential for breaking social distance, decreased ventilation, increased time in one spot and risk of surface transmission, indoor dining really is a “perfect storm” Maldonado says. Any time you spent inside somewhere like a restaurant will really increase your risk of contracting or spreading COVID-19. And if you do decide to dine indoors and spot that it’s a buffet, turn right around, Chin-Hong advises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re renting a car, consider the rental company’s cleaning and pick-up policies.

How Long After I Return Should I Get Tested?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Maldonado and Chin-Hong confirm that there’s a window of around two to 14 days from when you are exposed to when your symptoms show, or when you would test positive. The average length of time for this is about five days. That means, say our experts, that getting a test five days after you return from traveling is a good rule of thumb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They advise being extra sure to maintain your usual pandemic protocol of keeping social distance and wearing a facial covering in public before you get your test. These precautions mean you can be somewhat reassured that even if you \u003cem>did\u003c/em> contract COVID-19 on your travels, the risk that you’ve infected others is much lowered.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What Else Should I Consider When I’m on My Trip?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The big takeaway? If you decide to go against official guidance and travel this summer, this isn’t going to be a “normal” vacation. You will be 100% less carefree than you might usually be on your time off, and you’ll be doing things like:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Planning your route to check it doesn’t take you through any COVID-19 hot spots, rather than taking the scenic route\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Choosing a restaurant based on how far apart their tables are, rather than what you see on their menu\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Arriving at your rental property and disinfecting the surfaces, rather than jumping in the pool straightaway\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Strolling 20 minutes into a downtown area where you’re staying and having to turn back because you’ve realized you’ve forgotten your mask\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>If all of this sounds incredibly stressful, you might reconsider why you’re choosing to take a trip right now — and potentially redesign your plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re looking for rest and relaxation, it may be that, in 2020, traveling \u003cem>isn’t\u003c/em> what’s going to provide it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

If you manage to get \u003cem>on\u003c/em> your flight without cancellation, the country to which you’re traveling could change its travel rules and deny you entry as a non-citizen with very little notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11829695\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11829695\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane.jpg 1900w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/plane-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Right now, international travel is strongly discouraged. \u003ccite>(C.

Do not travel with someone who is sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state also recommends that if you choose to travel, you need to start by doing some in-depth planning.

Even though their guidance confirms that most viruses and other germs don’t actually spread easily \u003cem>on\u003c/em> flights because of how air circulates and is filtered on airplanes, this kind of travel means you’re spending prolonged time in security lines and airport terminals, where you can be brought into close contact not just with others, but with surfaces that could be harboring the coronavirus.

But if you absolutely must get on a domestic flight, they recommend investigating the airline’s safety policies before you fly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Do they keep middle seats empty to enable social distancing? Do they enforce face coverings?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bring disinfectant wipes and wipe down your seat and anything you touch in the bathroom, if you use it. Keep the air vent on by your seat, and choose a seat as close to the window as possible and as far away from where other people are sitting as possible. Bring your own food or make sure your food is pre-packaged if you purchase it in the airport or on the plane.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And wear your mask at all times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11829701\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1900px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11829701\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel.jpg 1900w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-800x539.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-1020x687.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/air-travel-1536x1035.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The airline industry has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic \u003ccite>(Sourav Mishra/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What if someone’s sick with COVID-19 on your flight?

It’s way less risky than taking a plane or a train right now. But by leaving your household and hitting the road, you’re still running the risk of spreading the coronavirus, and should take precautions — especially if you’re planning to drive longer distances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless you’re purposefully limiting your mileage, you’re going to need to get out of your car at certain times. It’s smart to plan your route and be aware of the COVID-19 risks in the areas you’re driving through — if you’re driving through a hot spot, you may wish to limit your stops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bring an ample supply of wipes to keep your car disinfected by wiping the steering wheel, surfaces, gearstick, parking brake and inside the dashboard every time you return to your car from a gas station, rest stop, restaurant or lodging — basically, from anywhere you’re around people or touching surfaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keep a sealed bag in your car for disposing of your used wipes and gloves. Stash your mask(s) safely somewhere where you can easily and quickly grab it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’re almost certainly going to need to stop for gas, so remember to wipe down gas pump handles with your disinfectant wipes. You might consider bringing a supply of gloves to wear when refueling and using gas station restrooms – just remember to avoid touching your face when you’re wearing them.
