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 mixing everything together in the lab, the group bottles, labels and distributes sanitizer, along with a pamphlet explaining a bit more about the virus, social distancing and hand washing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kostyanovskaya said they can make about a thousand bottles in a day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For San Quentin, we got stuff [materials] on Tuesday night and there were three of us, so we worked from Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. until the next morning, Wednesday at 4:15 a.m.,” she said.

Last Wednesday, in Lansing, Michigan, thousands of protestors carrying Trump flags, and in some cases, firearms, rallied against the state’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, whose most recent shelter-in-place order\u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/18/us/politics/gretchen-whitmer-michigan-protests.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">is one of the most restrictive in the country\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, President Trump has provided tacit support for these protests in a series of tweets on Friday when the president posted “LIBERATE MINNESOTA,” as well as Michigan and Virginia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11813080\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-large wp-image-11813080\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/GettyImages-1210050168-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/GettyImages-1210050168-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/GettyImages-1210050168-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/GettyImages-1210050168-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/GettyImages-1210050168-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People take part in a protest for 'Michiganders Against Excessive Quarantine' at the Michigan State Capitol in Lansing, Michigan, on April 15, 2020. \u003ccite>(Jeff Kowalsky/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>While protesters with the most extreme views have been sucking up the media attention nationwide, a series of interviews with Californians critical of the restrictions shows that some in this movement carry a more nuanced view. All of the people KQED spoke to believed the threat of the coronavirus is real. Some of the people didn’t take issue with the initial order to shelter in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with the restrictions easing the burden on the health care system, they are skeptical as to whether California should remain in complete shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the interviews, one point of doubt comes from the comparison of deaths from the flu, heart disease and cancer. Are they any deadlier than the new virus?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From a numbers standpoint, cancer and heart disease together kills close to 1 million U.S. adults per year, making the country’s coronavirus deaths, a little over 40,000, so far, look small.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s the uncertainty of COVID-19, experts say, that makes these comparisons not exactly appropriate. Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, \u003ca href=\"https://www.livescience.com/new-coronavirus-compare-with-flu.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">addressed this in a January press conference\u003c/a>, saying that the year-to-year deaths from the flu, for example, can be predicted, whereas calculations for COVID-19 deaths are harder to determine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And COVID-19 \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2018-2019.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has already killed more people\u003c/a> than the U.S. 2018-19 flu season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Thomas and others say that with the health care systems stabilized, more weight needs to be given to the economic hardship and desperation a complete shutdown is creating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t just continue to keep closing things up and disrupting people’s lives where [COVID-19] is not affecting people like myself physically,” said Thomas. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[aside tag='covid-19' label='More Coronavirus Coverage']\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thomas rents a small, 139-square-foot office space for her salon, and she is the only employee. She said that if she were to reopen, she would be happy to wear personal protective equipment while cutting hair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which leads to the next question: Health experts said hospitals would be overloaded with COVID-19 patients. Has this actually happened in California?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manav Dutta, who also helps run “Californians Against Excessive Quarantine,” was taking precautions in response to the growing coronavirus threat. He maintained social distance and washed his hands regularly. But on March 19, the governor enacted a shelter-in-place order. Then, municipalities across the state started shutting down parks and beaches. And like Thomas, Dutta is concerned that these measures don’t take into account the need for people to make money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dutta, a software engineer at the Georgia-based Movius, said that fears over the country’s health care system being overrun are “unfounded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s partially right. As the COVID-19 threat started to grow in March, hospitals started canceling elective surgeries to free up beds for a potential surge. That left UCSF Medical Center \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1962104/thousands-of-bay-area-patients-wait-for-surgery-while-hospitals-brace-for-coronavirus-surge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">with hundreds of unused beds not filled by coronavirus patients\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the Navy hospital ship docked in Los Angeles \u003ca href=\"https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/navy-hospital-ship-los-angeles-scale-back-mission-70174804\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">may scale back its operations\u003c/a> since hospitals in the region are stable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that doesn’t mean a surge won’t still happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a press conference in the beginning of April, Gov. Gavin Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/california/articles/2020-04-06/california-governor-sticking-with-mid-may-as-covid-19-peak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said the state should expect to see a hospital surge\u003c/a> in mid-May. And a recent study by the UC Berkeley School of Public Health and Kaiser Permanente found that COVID-19 patients who stay in the hospital for the long term \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2020/04/17/california-hospitals-warned-to-brace-for-surge-if-social-distancing-measures-lifted/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">could overwhelm the state’s health care infrastructure\u003c/a>, especially if shelter-in-place orders are prematurely lifted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dutta hopes that if there are to be more protests in California, it is done in a “cordial” manner and without the more “concerning” elements of the Michigan protest, like people getting out of their cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a press conference yesterday about homelessness and COVID-19, Newsom said that if people are to protest the shelter-in-place order, they should do so “safely” and make sure they’re “not infecting others,” since the virus has “doesn’t know political ideologies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Newsom also provided a staunch warning about the state of COVID-19 in California, and the fact that 87 people had died the night before from the virus, the highest the state has seen since the pandemic started.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those who think we’re out of the woods,” he said, “I caution you on the basis of that 87 number.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

All of the people KQED spoke to believed the threat of the coronavirus is real. Some of the people didn’t take issue with the initial order to shelter in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with the restrictions easing the burden on the health care system, they are skeptical as to whether California should remain in complete shutdown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the interviews, one point of doubt comes from the comparison of deaths from the flu, heart disease and cancer. Are they any deadlier than the new virus?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From a numbers standpoint, cancer and heart disease together kills close to 1 million U.S. adults per year, making the country’s coronavirus deaths, a little over 40,000, so far, look small.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s the uncertainty of COVID-19, experts say, that makes these comparisons not exactly appropriate. Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, \u003ca href=\"https://www.livescience.com/new-coronavirus-compare-with-flu.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">addressed this in a January press conference\u003c/a>, saying that the year-to-year deaths from the flu, for example, can be predicted, whereas calculations for COVID-19 deaths are harder to determine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And COVID-19 \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2018-2019.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has already killed more people\u003c/a> than the U.S. 2018-19 flu season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Thomas and others say that with the health care systems stabilized, more weight needs to be given to the economic hardship and desperation a complete shutdown is creating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t just continue to keep closing things up and disrupting people’s lives where [COVID-19] is not affecting people like myself physically,” said Thomas. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He maintained social distance and washed his hands regularly. But on March 19, the governor enacted a shelter-in-place order. Then, municipalities across the state started shutting down parks and beaches. And like Thomas, Dutta is concerned that these measures don’t take into account the need for people to make money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dutta, a software engineer at the Georgia-based Movius, said that fears over the country’s health care system being overrun are “unfounded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s partially right.

More than 67% of the losses — or 67,200 jobs — came in the leisure and hospitality industry, which includes restaurants. But the National Restaurant Association said a survey of its California members shows job losses of 560,000 in the first three weeks of March. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[pullquote size='large' align='right' citation='Zachary Davis, Co-Owner of The Penny Ice Creamery']'It was surreal, calling every single employee and saying we’re not going to be open.'[/pullquote]\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Cruz, Zachary Davis and Kendra Baker opened an artisanal ice cream shop 10 years ago using federal stimulus funds following the Great Recession. They became local celebrities early on when then-Vice President Joe Biden made a thank-you call to their shop, The Penny Ice Creamery, after they had posted a YouTube video praising the economic stimulus act that provided their startup loan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their success steadily grew, they opened a second ice cream parlor, a beachside cafe and a taco bar. But when Santa Cruz County public health officials issued a shelter-in-place order on March 16, Davis and Baker laid off 70 workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was surreal, calling every single employee and saying we’re not going to be open. We don’t have a place for you to come to work, and we don’t know when that will change,” Davis said. “We knew the best thing we could do for them was allow them to file for unemployment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They are still doing small-scale takeout that pulls in about 17% of their normal revenue, but it’s not enough to pay the rent and salaries of a skeletal staff they have kept on. They are going into credit card debt, drawing down on limited savings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom announced Friday he tapped billionaire businessman and former Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer as an unpaid adviser for “business and jobs recovery.” Newsom also announced a task force that includes former Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen, Disney board chair Bob Iger, Apple CEO Tim Cook and International Longshore Workers Union President Willie Adams, among others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friday’s jobs report marks the end of a historic run of growth in the Golden State. Since 2010, California added more than 3.4 million jobs, accounting for 15% of the nation’s job growth as it emerged from the Great Recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with remarkable speed, California is now leading in the opposite direction. Its unemployment claims since mid-March account for 14% of the nation’s total, said Sung Won Sohn, a business economist at Loyola Marymount University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unemployment is in a free fall, and no bottom is yet in sight,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Sohn said there is hope California could be in a better position to weather this downturn because of the state’s dominance in the technology industry, which has seen record demand for streaming services and remote work applications. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[aside tag='coronavirus' label='More Coronavirus Coverage']\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But others aren’t so optimistic. The speed of job losses is unlike anything that California — the world’s fifth-largest economy — has ever seen. The government will likely lift stay-at-home restrictions gradually, meaning spooked consumers and employers will be slow to re-engage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s what worries me,” Bernick said. “We’re going to have to be very innovative on how we get out of this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has always thought of himself and his business partner as embodying the definition of entrepreneurs, with no experience in business but “optimism and the belief that you can figure anything out that you put your mind to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His optimism is fading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are days when I think we’re not going to make it,” said Davis, who is married with three small children. “What kind of position am I putting my family in if I’m digging us into a hole that I can’t get out of?”\u003c/p>\n\n",

More than 67% of the losses — or 67,200 jobs — came in the leisure and hospitality industry, which includes restaurants. But the National Restaurant Association said a survey of its California members shows job losses of 560,000 in the first three weeks of March. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They became local celebrities early on when then-Vice President Joe Biden made a thank-you call to their shop, The Penny Ice Creamery, after they had posted a YouTube video praising the economic stimulus act that provided their startup loan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their success steadily grew, they opened a second ice cream parlor, a beachside cafe and a taco bar. But when Santa Cruz County public health officials issued a shelter-in-place order on March 16, Davis and Baker laid off 70 workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was surreal, calling every single employee and saying we’re not going to be open. We don’t have a place for you to come to work, and we don’t know when that will change,” Davis said. “We knew the best thing we could do for them was allow them to file for unemployment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They are still doing small-scale takeout that pulls in about 17% of their normal revenue, but it’s not enough to pay the rent and salaries of a skeletal staff they have kept on. They are going into credit card debt, drawing down on limited savings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom announced Friday he tapped billionaire businessman and former Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer as an unpaid adviser for “business and jobs recovery.” Newsom also announced a task force that includes former Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen, Disney board chair Bob Iger, Apple CEO Tim Cook and International Longshore Workers Union President Willie Adams, among others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Friday’s jobs report marks the end of a historic run of growth in the Golden State. Since 2010, California added more than 3.4 million jobs, accounting for 15% of the nation’s job growth as it emerged from the Great Recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with remarkable speed, California is now leading in the opposite direction. Its unemployment claims since mid-March account for 14% of the nation’s total, said Sung Won Sohn, a business economist at Loyola Marymount University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unemployment is in a free fall, and no bottom is yet in sight,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Sohn said there is hope California could be in a better position to weather this downturn because of the state’s dominance in the technology industry, which has seen record demand for streaming services and remote work applications. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The government will likely lift stay-at-home restrictions gradually, meaning spooked consumers and employers will be slow to re-engage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s what worries me,” Bernick said. “We’re going to have to be very innovative on how we get out of this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has always thought of himself and his business partner as embodying the definition of entrepreneurs, with no experience in business but “optimism and the belief that you can figure anything out that you put your mind to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His optimism is fading.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are days when I think we’re not going to make it,” said Davis, who is married with three small children. “What kind of position am I putting my family in if I’m digging us into a hole that I can’t get out of?”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Their mom, Tamu Bustos, works as an ER nurse at Highland Hospital in Oakland. She sleeps in a trailer in the Bay Area, but when she gets a day off, she makes the three-hour drive home to see her kids. With the coronavirus outbreak, those visits have gotten tougher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tamu doesn’t want to put her children at risk, so she avoids going inside the house where the kids stay with their dad while she’s at work. She also limits how often she visits her kids and for how long — sometimes for as little as an hour at a time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/C4SFJaE-y5I\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously we can’t touch each other,” said Marshall, who is a sophomore in high school. “I'd love to give her a hug, and make sure she's fine because I'm a mama's boy. I love my mom. She's really sweet, kind and amazing. I really don't know what I would do if she got hurt or sick.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last time they saw their mom, they noticed a change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Her eyes started to bag and darken,” Marina, a senior, explained. “It's clear she's not getting as much sleep. She looked like she lost a lot of weight from stress alone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anytime they do see her, they stay much more than six feet apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Marina Rocha, 18\"]'We have a more real connection, we have a more real perception of life as well.

Another time, the siblings walked to the school down the street from their house. The kids sat on one side of the stadium while their mom sat on the other, and they had breakfast together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coronavirus has also impacted Marina and Marshall’s bigger celebrations, too. Last week, Marina celebrated her 18th birthday without a big party, but her mom got a day off work and stood far away as Marina blew out her candles. Marina won’t get a high school graduation this year, either, but she said all of these milestones don’t mean as much as they did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We get to hear all the horror stories of the ER room,” said Marina. “You realize this is not something to joke around about.

But at the same time, she loves us and she tries to be there for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have a more real connection, we have a more real perception of life as well,” she continued. “On the topic of death — we already know what she wants when she dies. It's a very normal conversation for us. We can talk about things like that because that's what she faces every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marina said watching her mom hasn’t inspired her to become a nurse — she said she values sleep too much. But she isn’t sleeping much these days. Instead she said she lays in bed at night, imagining the worst case scenarios of what could happen to her mom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marina has to be her mom’s alarm clock sometimes — calling to wake her up for a night shift. Other times, Marina and Marshall stay up late just for the opportunity to talk to their mom on the phone.

And Then, the Coronavirus Hit\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Olivia Bye, 14, in San Leandro\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia Bye, 14, likes her independence. But since the coronavirus outbreak, she’s had to be even more self-sufficient than usual. Olivia’s mom, Berenice Perez, is an emergency room doctor at a hospital in Oakland, and works long hours either treating COVID-19 patients directly or doing administrative work to address the hospital’s response to the crisis. Olivia’s dad works in IT tech support, a job requiring him to go into the office each day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia says the transition to spending days home alone hasn’t been too difficult. She prepares easy meals like pasta and grilled cheese to get her through the day, which she spends attending Zoom classes in advance of her eighth grade graduation. Despite those adjustments, Olivia says the biggest challenge has been worrying about her mom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mom doesn't like to talk about [the coronavirus] a whole lot when she comes [home] from work,” said Olivia. “Sometimes we’ll have discussions about it, but it's her whole life now. So when she comes home she likes to have a little break and not to think about it constantly because she already does at the hospital.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Berenice\u003c/span> takes diligent precautions to ensure she doesn’t spread the virus around the house. She follows a system of leaving her protective coverall outside the door, sealing it in a bag, throwing it in the laundry, and quickly hopping in the shower — all while cleaning the surfaces she’s touched along the way. She also occasionally eats dinner on the other side of the room and sleeps in Olivia’s older sister’s empty bed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Olivia Bye, 14\"]'I think the days where it feels really hard for me are the same days that it feels really hard for my mom.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these precautions are extra important, Olivia said, because her mom had a hole in her heart that caused a small stroke last April, and had a procedure to close the hole in November. Berenice said she isn’t more susceptible to facing complications as a result of COVID- 19 than other women of her age. But it’s been challenging for the family to reconcile her recent health scare with the unknowns of the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can tell that she's always nervous and on edge about it,” Olivia said. “She didn't really expect this to be her new reality. But it's her job, so she's just trying to figure out how to make it less scary. But she's always going to have a constant worry in the back of her mind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia is worried, too. She said it’s been difficult to stay positive about the situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the days where it feels really hard for me are the same days that it feels really hard for my mom,” she said. “It’s hard to know what the bright side could be. I guess I try and think it's not going to last forever. It is going to get better at some point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These days, Olivia calms her mind by connecting with friends and keeping up on her schoolwork. She also writes fictional stories to help her process her feelings. She’s even writing a character whose parent also suffers from health challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can form any reality I want with this,” she said. “And I incorporate my feelings into the story as an outlet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11812498\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11812498\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42780_alt_1004-800x945.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"945\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42780_alt_1004-800x945.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42780_alt_1004-160x189.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42780_alt_1004-1020x1204.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42780_alt_1004.jpg 1461w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Skarbinski family is dealing with both parents being on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the Skarbinski family)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>When Both Parents Work on the Front Lines\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Isan Skarbinski, 12; Nadja Skarbinski, 10; and Lev Skarbinski, 7; in Berkeley\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the Skarbinski siblings, home life has shifted dramatically with the spread of the coronavirus.

But since the coronavirus outbreak, she’s had to be even more self-sufficient than usual. Olivia’s mom, Berenice Perez, is an emergency room doctor at a hospital in Oakland, and works long hours either treating COVID-19 patients directly or doing administrative work to address the hospital’s response to the crisis. Olivia’s dad works in IT tech support, a job requiring him to go into the office each day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia says the transition to spending days home alone hasn’t been too difficult. She prepares easy meals like pasta and grilled cheese to get her through the day, which she spends attending Zoom classes in advance of her eighth grade graduation. Despite those adjustments, Olivia says the biggest challenge has been worrying about her mom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My mom doesn't like to talk about [the coronavirus] a whole lot when she comes [home] from work,” said Olivia. “Sometimes we’ll have discussions about it, but it's her whole life now. So when she comes home she likes to have a little break and not to think about it constantly because she already does at the hospital.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Berenice\u003c/span> takes diligent precautions to ensure she doesn’t spread the virus around the house. She follows a system of leaving her protective coverall outside the door, sealing it in a bag, throwing it in the laundry, and quickly hopping in the shower — all while cleaning the surfaces she’s touched along the way. She also occasionally eats dinner on the other side of the room and sleeps in Olivia’s older sister’s empty bed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Berenice said she isn’t more susceptible to facing complications as a result of COVID- 19 than other women of her age. But it’s been challenging for the family to reconcile her recent health scare with the unknowns of the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can tell that she's always nervous and on edge about it,” Olivia said. “She didn't really expect this to be her new reality. But it's her job, so she's just trying to figure out how to make it less scary. But she's always going to have a constant worry in the back of her mind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olivia is worried, too. She said it’s been difficult to stay positive about the situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the days where it feels really hard for me are the same days that it feels really hard for my mom,” she said. “It’s hard to know what the bright side could be. I guess I try and think it's not going to last forever. It is going to get better at some point.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These days, Olivia calms her mind by connecting with friends and keeping up on her schoolwork. She also writes fictional stories to help her process her feelings. She’s even writing a character whose parent also suffers from health challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can form any reality I want with this,” she said. “And I incorporate my feelings into the story as an outlet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But he has to do it more since he's at home,” Colson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there is school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He has to go to the different teachers that are available online who have loaded assignments, because not everyone does it every day,” Colson said. “He has to check, go to each tab for each teacher and then we'll talk about the assignments.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As an analyst for the state’s Department of Social Services, Colson is an essential worker who can work from home three days a week, where it’s easier for her to help Saeed. But two days a week, she must head into the office and leave her 13-year-old at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson is a single parent, and for the past three weeks she has been trying to find the right balance between doing her job and directing her 7th grader's school work. At times her son can be with his father, she said, but mostly he is with her — which means monitoring Saeed's progress remotely while at work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He is emailing me and texting me and letting me know that he's eating, that he's doing his homework,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes Colson must take time to try and explain school assignments over the phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, basically all the education is totally relying upon me. Unfortunately for me, I don't know all the material that is being presented, so I’m like, ‘OK. Well, share with me. Let me see what you're doing so I can read it and see what they're asking you',\" she said. “It's like I'm learning the material and, at the same time, helping him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson said she doesn’t know how Saeed will be graded since some of his teachers at Oakland’s Bret Harte Middle School have yet to connect with him. She said she spent one evening exchanging text messages with a teacher because an app Saeed needed for his schoolwork wasn’t working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson would like Saeed to be able to connect with his teachers directly, because they’re the ones with expertise, and she senses his frustration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He asked me, ‘Well, why am I doing all this ton of work, Mom?’ And I had to explain to him that they still want you to have the same type of work and homework as though he was in a classroom,\" she said. \"And he's like, ‘Well, we're not a classroom, we're at home.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Colson is working at home, she and her son take breaks together to go for a walk or have lunch. She lets him skateboard in the park and play games with friends online. Late in the afternoon, he focuses on school work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She thinks he is getting a little more comfortable learning with her, one-on-one, away from the distractions of a classroom of 30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're having more and more talks about school, about different stuff,” she said. “It is actually a blessing I don't have multiple kids and multiple grades in all different ages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am doing fine, to be honest with you. I've been praying every day,” she added. “That's just something that's just part of my lifestyle, because I am a Christian.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Learning on a Cell Phone\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11812727\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11812727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Miesha Henderson helps her first grader do school work on a cell phone. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Miesha Henderson helps her first grader do school work on a cell phone. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Things were just falling into place for Miesha Henderson before the coronavirus pandemic hit the Bay Area.

But two days a week, she must head into the office and leave her 13-year-old at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson is a single parent, and for the past three weeks she has been trying to find the right balance between doing her job and directing her 7th grader's school work. At times her son can be with his father, she said, but mostly he is with her — which means monitoring Saeed's progress remotely while at work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He is emailing me and texting me and letting me know that he's eating, that he's doing his homework,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sometimes Colson must take time to try and explain school assignments over the phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You know, basically all the education is totally relying upon me. Unfortunately for me, I don't know all the material that is being presented, so I’m like, ‘OK. Well, share with me. Let me see what you're doing so I can read it and see what they're asking you',\" she said. “It's like I'm learning the material and, at the same time, helping him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson said she doesn’t know how Saeed will be graded since some of his teachers at Oakland’s Bret Harte Middle School have yet to connect with him. She said she spent one evening exchanging text messages with a teacher because an app Saeed needed for his schoolwork wasn’t working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colson would like Saeed to be able to connect with his teachers directly, because they’re the ones with expertise, and she senses his frustration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He asked me, ‘Well, why am I doing all this ton of work, Mom?’ And I had to explain to him that they still want you to have the same type of work and homework as though he was in a classroom,\" she said. \"And he's like, ‘Well, we're not a classroom, we're at home.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Colson is working at home, she and her son take breaks together to go for a walk or have lunch. She lets him skateboard in the park and play games with friends online. Late in the afternoon, he focuses on school work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She thinks he is getting a little more comfortable learning with her, one-on-one, away from the distractions of a classroom of 30.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're having more and more talks about school, about different stuff,” she said. “It is actually a blessing I don't have multiple kids and multiple grades in all different ages.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am doing fine, to be honest with you. I've been praying every day,” she added. “That's just something that's just part of my lifestyle, because I am a Christian.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Learning on a Cell Phone\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11812727\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11812727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Miesha Henderson helps her first grader do school work on a cell phone. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/SingleParent_Miesha_03262020-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Miesha Henderson helps her first grader do school work on a cell phone. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Things were just falling into place for Miesha Henderson before the coronavirus pandemic hit the Bay Area. She had a job at Costco in Richmond. She had to take BART, a bus and then a Lyft to get there from her home in Oakland, but it was helping to pay the rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Henderson also worked as a paid crossing guard at her son’s elementary school, Think College Now, on International Boulevard, and she was in training with a local activist organization, \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandreach.org/about-us/\">The Oakland Reach\u003c/a>, where she would earn a stipend for going through the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All that income has dried up now, but the bright spot of being forced to stay at home has been spending more time with her son, Gregory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're like two peas in a pod, so this is nothing new for us,” Henderson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s been continuing Gregory’s first grade math and reading lessons with help from his teacher, Julie Dulay. All of that takes place on her cell phone, since Gregory doesn’t have a laptop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We're doing a lot of stuff on the phones with Zearn.org, and a lot of the reading and the math assignments are being put on online,” Henderson said. She is also using an app called TalkingPoints\u003cstrong>,\u003c/strong> which she said all parents at her school are required to download to stay in touch with the school and their teachers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) has said it is still surveying district families in the hopes of providing a device for all who need them.

Some have simply handed out multiple assignments all at once, while another teacher has been sending helpful YouTube videos explaining how to get the work done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bims-Payne is concerned that OUSD has yet to let parents know how new pass/fail grading will work, or whether school will restart on campuses early in August.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://west.edtrust.org/press-release/poll-ca-parents-concerned-about-school-closures-caused-by-covid-19/\">A statewide poll\u003c/a> of California parents in early April by The Education Trust—West shows that many parents are concerned their children will fall behind during school closures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A majority of Latinx and African American parents polled say they do not have the resources, including computers or supplies, to help their child stay on track. The poll also found that many of those parents said they had not been contacted by their children’s teachers or given direction by their school or district as to how instruction would happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, when her sons’ campuses shut down, Bims-Payne had one Chromebook at home, but knew she would need another. It was only by chance that she learned from a neighbor that her school was giving out free Chromebooks — she hadn’t received a notice from the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>OUSD has consistently told parents it is working on building out its plans, and the district's chief academic officer said on April 14 that the district is in its \"Try it Out\" phase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Bims-Payne is not waiting for the district any longer. She came up with a routine to try and balance her work and her sons' needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By 7 a.m. each weekday she is set up on her laptop in bed, trying to check in with her supervisor and clear emails before she gets her two boys up around 9 a.m. for breakfast. The three of them combine work with chores and play, trying to end each day with a walk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
