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.",

"content": "\u003cp>When \u003ca href=\"https://www.thedreamcorps.org/bio/michael-mendoza/\">Michael Mendoza\u003c/a> was arrested at age 15 in 1996 for his involvement in a gang-related murder, California was in the throes of its tough-on-crime phase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gang violence was exploding. Bill Clinton was president and Republican Pete Wilson was governor. Two years earlier, led by Democrats, Congress had passed a \u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/6/20/18677998/joe-biden-1994-crime-bill-law-mass-incarceration\">national crime bill\u003c/a>, while California voters overwhelmingly approved the state’s draconian \u003ca href=\"https://www.courts.ca.gov/20142.htm#:~:text=California's%20Three%20Strikes%20sentencing%20law%20was%20originally%20enacted%20in%201994,otherwise%20provided%20for%20the%20crime\">three-strikes law\u003c/a> a few months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a movement that crossed party lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I found myself standing before a judge … where I was being sentenced and tried as an adult and basically told that I was gonna go to prison for the rest of my life,” Mendoza recalled. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(I was) called the super predator, a monster, a kid who was never going to succeed … At that age, I couldn’t fathom or understand why I was being thrown away. And it felt really hopeless,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendoza likely would have spent the rest of his life in prison. But in 2013, state lawmakers passed \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB260\">a bill\u003c/a> allowing parole hearings for inmates like him, who committed their crimes as juveniles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Jessica Levinson, Loyola Law School\"]‘What’s gonna hurt Gov. Newsom more? Is it a story that there was a coronavirus explosion in prisons, or is it a story that a prisoner he released committed a heinous crime? I think it’s probably door number two.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even in the face of a 2011 U.S. Supreme Court order to reduce the state’s prison population, that legislation is the type of go-slow, incremental approach to prison release that California has embraced over the past decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The federal court order to reduce the inmate population is still in place – and now, with COVID-19 exploding in state prisons, Gov. Gavin Newsom has moved to release thousands of state prisoners early.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s decision is being criticized by criminal justice hardliners as as a threat to public safety even as advocates for prisoners say it doesn’t go far enough. More than \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/covid19/population-status-tracking/\">8,300 prisoners have tested positive for COVID-19 and 50 inmates have died\u003c/a> so far from coronavirus complications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendoza, who is now national director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.thedreamcorps.org/our-programs/cut50/\">#Cut50 campaign\u003c/a>, which aims to reduce both incarceration and crime across the nation, said it’s not surprising that Newsom hasn’t gone even further with those releases, offering them only to people who would be getting out within six months anyway or are at severe risk of dying from COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I believe that within the last five governors, starting from 2000 till now, (criminal justice reform) has been piecemeal and it’s been piecemeal because of the scare tactics and the Willie Horton stories and the politics,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Willie Horton. It’s a name that inevitably comes up when you talk about the intersection of politics and criminal justice. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Horton, a Black man, was used in Republican campaign ads to attack Democrat Michael Dukakis during the 1988 presidential race against George H.W. Bush. Horton, a convicted murderer, was furloughed from prison for a weekend and went on to commit rape, assault and robbery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Io9KMSSEZ0Y\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the nightmare scenario for any politician, said Loyola Law School professor Jessica Levinson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What governors don’t want when we’re talking about prisoner release is the headline that says, ‘Gov. Newsom released this prisoner and then they did this egregious thing,’ ” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even a progressive Democrat in a deep-blue state will consider the political tradeoffs, Levinson said. She noted that under both Newsom and his predecessor, Jerry Brown, the state only moved to cut the prison population under duress: first a court order, now a global pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s gonna hurt Gov. Newsom more? Is it a story that there was a coronavirus explosion in the prisons or is it a story that a prisoner that he released committed a heinous crime? I think it’s probably door number two, and I think that could be part of his reticence,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mark Leno spent 14 years in the state Legislature starting in 2002. He had a front-row seat to the state’s evolution on criminal justice policy over that period, as voters became more disillusioned with prison spending and more open to rolling back the harsh laws of the 1990s. He acknowledged that just one Willie Horton can do lasting political damage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11830217 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/Image-from-iOS-5-1.jpg']“Just one, just one. That’s all you need. One horrible situation where someone re-offends in a very unpleasant, brutal way,” Leno said. “And so that’s always in the back of someone’s mind. And nothing is foolproof. Nothing is 100% … There is risk involved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leno was among the Democrats pushing most aggressively for more prison releases during his time in the Legislature, and he came up against staunch opposition, even when the \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=200920100SB1399\">prisoners in question were comatose\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’d think that would be the low-hanging fruit, that would be the slam dunk,” he said of the bill to release medically incapacitated prisoners, who were costing the state tens of millions of dollars a year. “We got a lot of resistance to this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leno noted that it wasn’t just the Supreme Court order that finally prompted state leaders to consider laws aimed at reducing the prison population: It was that order, combined with a state budget crisis, as well as shifting public opinion. Many of the most significant criminal justice reforms enacted in California over the past decade were passed by voters, not lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those who have voted against those types of laws consistently is state Sen. Jim Nielsen, R-Tehama. He opposes Newsom’s release plan, even though it is largely limited to prisoners set for release soon anyway, saying it ignores the rights of victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The victims, they are the most forgotten individuals in all of criminal justice today … They have no standing anymore. And that’s very tragically sad,” Nielsen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11829407 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/07/DSC01718-1020x681.jpeg']Nielsen also believes that the prisoners set for release are not yet rehabilitated, and that they could spread COVID-19 to the broader community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They will be doing what un-rehabilitated criminals do. They will re-offend,” he said. “And in this particular case, they have been in an infected environment. And it’s rather ironic and risky, ironic and risky, to put individuals who have been in a high-risk environment into the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But former prisoners like Michael Mendoza are hopeful. He said he’s seen a notable shift among both state leaders and the public in recent years, and the substantive policy change that’s come out of that evolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are more people that are impacted by the criminal justice system like myself that are out here and advocating, sharing our stories … How we are human beings, how we do have the capacity to grow, mature and change,” Mendoza said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Newsom may be not going as far or as fast as Mendoza would like, he still sees this governor as the most willing to try in recent memory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Bill Clinton was president and Republican Pete Wilson was governor. Two years earlier, led by Democrats, Congress had passed a \u003ca href=\"https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/6/20/18677998/joe-biden-1994-crime-bill-law-mass-incarceration\">national crime bill\u003c/a>, while California voters overwhelmingly approved the state’s draconian \u003ca href=\"https://www.courts.ca.gov/20142.htm#:~:text=California's%20Three%20Strikes%20sentencing%20law%20was%20originally%20enacted%20in%201994,otherwise%20provided%20for%20the%20crime\">three-strikes law\u003c/a> a few months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a movement that crossed party lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I found myself standing before a judge … where I was being sentenced and tried as an adult and basically told that I was gonna go to prison for the rest of my life,” Mendoza recalled. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(I was) called the super predator, a monster, a kid who was never going to succeed … At that age, I couldn’t fathom or understand why I was being thrown away. And it felt really hopeless,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendoza likely would have spent the rest of his life in prison. But in 2013, state lawmakers passed \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB260\">a bill\u003c/a> allowing parole hearings for inmates like him, who committed their crimes as juveniles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It’s a name that inevitably comes up when you talk about the intersection of politics and criminal justice. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Horton, a Black man, was used in Republican campaign ads to attack Democrat Michael Dukakis during the 1988 presidential race against George H.W.

Newsom released this prisoner and then they did this egregious thing,’ ” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even a progressive Democrat in a deep-blue state will consider the political tradeoffs, Levinson said. She noted that under both Newsom and his predecessor, Jerry Brown, the state only moved to cut the prison population under duress: first a court order, now a global pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s gonna hurt Gov. Newsom more? Is it a story that there was a coronavirus explosion in the prisons or is it a story that a prisoner that he released committed a heinous crime? I think it’s probably door number two, and I think that could be part of his reticence,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mark Leno spent 14 years in the state Legislature starting in 2002. He had a front-row seat to the state’s evolution on criminal justice policy over that period, as voters became more disillusioned with prison spending and more open to rolling back the harsh laws of the 1990s. He acknowledged that just one Willie Horton can do lasting political damage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Nothing is 100% … There is risk involved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leno was among the Democrats pushing most aggressively for more prison releases during his time in the Legislature, and he came up against staunch opposition, even when the \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=200920100SB1399\">prisoners in question were comatose\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’d think that would be the low-hanging fruit, that would be the slam dunk,” he said of the bill to release medically incapacitated prisoners, who were costing the state tens of millions of dollars a year. “We got a lot of resistance to this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leno noted that it wasn’t just the Supreme Court order that finally prompted state leaders to consider laws aimed at reducing the prison population: It was that order, combined with a state budget crisis, as well as shifting public opinion. Many of the most significant criminal justice reforms enacted in California over the past decade were passed by voters, not lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among those who have voted against those types of laws consistently is state Sen. Jim Nielsen, R-Tehama. He opposes Newsom’s release plan, even though it is largely limited to prisoners set for release soon anyway, saying it ignores the rights of victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The victims, they are the most forgotten individuals in all of criminal justice today … They have no standing anymore.

They will re-offend,” he said. “And in this particular case, they have been in an infected environment. And it’s rather ironic and risky, ironic and risky, to put individuals who have been in a high-risk environment into the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But former prisoners like Michael Mendoza are hopeful.

If a student or educator tests positive for the virus, all students and staff exposed to that person should be quarantined for 14 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, an entire school would have to revert to distance learning if multiple cases are reported, or if 5% percent of students and staff test positive within a 14-day period. And an entire district would have to revert to distance learning if 25% or more of its schools have been physically closed due to COVID-19 within a 14-day period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The one thing we have the power to do to get our kids back into school? Wear a mask, physically distance, wash your hands,\" Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom emphasized that schools “must provide meaningful instruction during the pandemic, whether they are physically opened or not.” He called for “rigorous online and distance learning,” while also noting the formidable challenges many schools faced in the spring, particularly in regard to technology resources and internet connectivity issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Access to devices is one thing, and connectivity, it's foundational,” Newsom said, pointing to funds still available from a $5.3 billion package passed last spring that districts could access to \"address this yawning gap as it relates to the digital divide.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want daily live interaction with teachers and other students, students connecting peer-to-peer with other students, teachers connecting daily and an interactive frame to advance our distance learning efforts,” Newsom said. Schools, he added, must also make specific remote learning accommodations for students with special needs, including homeless and foster care students, those with learning disabilities and English language learners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we’re going to see a lot more capacity this school year than we were able to have in all districts last school year, to really respond to both classrooms as a whole and the needs of particular students,” State Board of Education President Linda Darling-Hammond said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s administration and the state Department of Education had released guidelines in early June for districts to follow when reopening, including implementing temperature checks for students, remaking activities such as lunch and recess and recommending cloth face coverings for students and teachers. But at that time, California had managed to keep its COVID-19 case count under control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since we’ve issued our guidance, conditions have changed dramatically,” State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond said during a media briefing Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley from Sacramento accused the governor of listening to “special interests, not science\" in laying out the rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rather than adopting a balanced approach that provides California families options for classroom-based and home-based learning, the governor is shutting down the vast majority of schools across the state,\" Kiley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"more education coverage\" tag=\"education\"]A growing number of large school districts have already said their schools will begin the new term remotely, including Los Angeles and San Diego, the state’s two largest districts, with a combined enrollment of 720,000 K-12 students. San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, Sacramento, Long Beach, Santa Ana and San Bernardino are among the other districts that recently announced they would not immediately return to classrooms for the fall semester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Education officials in a growing number of cities nationwide, including Atlanta, Nashville and Houston, have also recently announced plans to start the academic year remotely, despite ongoing pressure from President Trump and some Republican governors to open up classrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I'm generally happy with this. What the governor did today was establish a consistent set of criteria across local health jurisdictions that will lead, I think, to more consistent decision making across the state,” said Berkeley Unified Superintendent Brent Stephens. He expressed concern, though, that there would not be nearly enough state and federal funding available to provide districts with the necessary resources for effective distance learning and ongoing COVID-19 testing of school staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jeff Freitas, president of the the California Federation of Teachers, which has urged Newsom to delay the physical reopening of all schools this fall, said the order doesn't go far enough in protecting teachers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The guidance allows for millions of students, teachers, and classified education professionals to remain in harm’s way,” he said in a statement. “Unfortunately, (it) allows for some districts to continue to operate in dangerous conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ashley Jones, a fifth-grade teacher in the Twin Rivers Unified School District outside Sacramento, said she was relieved to find out the school year will start with distance learning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People don’t quite understand that schools and classrooms are honestly a cesspool of germs,” said Jones, who has Type 1 diabetes and is considered high risk. “It’s not like you’re in the office with a bunch of adults who know not to sneeze on each other.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This article includes additional reporting from the Associated Press and KQED's Vanessa Rancaño and Julia McEvoy.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Wear a mask, physically distance, wash your hands,\" Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom emphasized that schools “must provide meaningful instruction during the pandemic, whether they are physically opened or not.” He called for “rigorous online and distance learning,” while also noting the formidable challenges many schools faced in the spring, particularly in regard to technology resources and internet connectivity issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Access to devices is one thing, and connectivity, it's foundational,” Newsom said, pointing to funds still available from a $5.3 billion package passed last spring that districts could access to \"address this yawning gap as it relates to the digital divide.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want daily live interaction with teachers and other students, students connecting peer-to-peer with other students, teachers connecting daily and an interactive frame to advance our distance learning efforts,” Newsom said. Schools, he added, must also make specific remote learning accommodations for students with special needs, including homeless and foster care students, those with learning disabilities and English language learners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we’re going to see a lot more capacity this school year than we were able to have in all districts last school year, to really respond to both classrooms as a whole and the needs of particular students,” State Board of Education President Linda Darling-Hammond said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s administration and the state Department of Education had released guidelines in early June for districts to follow when reopening, including implementing temperature checks for students, remaking activities such as lunch and recess and recommending cloth face coverings for students and teachers. But at that time, California had managed to keep its COVID-19 case count under control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since we’ve issued our guidance, conditions have changed dramatically,” State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond said during a media briefing Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley from Sacramento accused the governor of listening to “special interests, not science\" in laying out the rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Rather than adopting a balanced approach that provides California families options for classroom-based and home-based learning, the governor is shutting down the vast majority of schools across the state,\" Kiley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The demand, however, is placing pressure on the supply chain, forcing the state to rethink its strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gov.

Two roommates from Fresno who requested a test at the same time from the same site got appointments almost a week apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carson Blaker of Los Angeles sat in his car with his windows rolled up for over an hour in 90-degree heat, something he wished he’d known because his car doesn’t have air conditioning. Those without cars said walk-up testing can be harder to come by.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miles Campbell of Woodland learned on June 25 that a coworker at the supermarket warehouse where he works had tested positive for the coronavirus. He decided to get tested because he lives with his parents and didn’t want to potentially expose them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although he’d heard testing was free, he called his insurance to make sure he wouldn’t be surprised by a bill. He said the representative told him it would cover the cost only if the test was ordered by his primary care provider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campbell, 23, doesn’t have a primary doctor and didn’t have symptoms, so finding a provider to prescribe the test was a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time he got tested on July 4, he was more than a week into his quarantine period — still not at work and potentially exposing his parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I definitely don’t think it was worth it. I’m going to work tomorrow, my 14 days are up, and I still don’t have the results,” he said last Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Gov.

There’s some supply chain concerns, at the same time, we’re doing a record number of tests.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campbell’s story is also one of an “essential worker,” which includes food production and grocery store employees. Yet accessing a test was no easier for him. Essential workers, with and without symptoms, are on “Tier 1” of the state’s current testing guidelines, which means they should be prioritized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sherrie Totoki, 33, got tested at San Francisco Community College. She was told she’d have results in two to three days, so she made plans to visit her sister who had just given birth in Los Angeles. After a week with no results, she was told the lab never received her test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said that when she got to Los Angeles, she kept away from her family until she found an urgent care center in Pasadena that offered a new type of diagnostic test, known as an antigen test, designed for rapid detection of the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An hour and $125 later, she had a negative result. Later that day, she got a second message from her original free test in San Francisco, notifying her that her test had been found. The result: negative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was worth it because I wanted to see my nephew, but I spent a lot of time trying to get tested,” Totoki said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For 74-year-old Andy Lagomarsino of Stockton, waiting for results wasn’t the problem — it was the confusion around how to initiate the test. He said he drove to Sutter Gould Medical Foundation in late June. He was directed to drive up to a parking space and call the number on the parking post for further instructions. No appointment was required; it seemed easy enough, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Lagomarsino tells it, he spent more than an hour on the phone, but couldn’t get anyone to answer. He left and came back a second day. Then a third. “Eventually I got tested, but I had to make a big stink,” he said. “Trying to get tested was the biggest circus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His results came in the next day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an effort to improve testing, California has established a system of more than 1,000 public and private testing sites. The state also put out a testing information website, where people can find testing locations nearby. Many residents jumped at the chance, if only for peace of mind. In the CalMatters survey, 84% of respondents said they sought testing even though they didn’t have symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, along with the rest of the country, is again experiencing a shortage of supplies needed for testing, resulting in canceled appointments, the closing of test sites and longer waits for results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 4, public health officials asked California laboratories to prioritize patients with symptoms and those in hospitals, nursing homes or prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an interesting moment,” Newsom said during a press briefing last week. “There’s some supply chain concerns, at the same time, we’re doing a record number of tests.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus-testing\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a preview of his coming announcement, Newsom said the state is looking to increase testing in local labs and hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of these systems have also expressed concerns. UC Davis Health said it doesn’t have enough kits to help with testing outside its system. Testing of its own patients and its employees will continue as is. Sutter Health in Northern California said it’s also looking for supplies from various vendors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaiser Permanente said that it’s working toward a goal of 20,000 tests a day. “We remain concerned, however, about the availability of needed testing supplies in the coming weeks and months,” Witt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said he doesn’t want the shortages and backlogs to dissuade people from seeking testing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look, if you have symptoms, if you’re in a high risk category … we want to encourage you to get tested, not be discouraged in some cases by some of these delays,” he said. “Know that we have a team working overtime on this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>CalMatters health care coverage is supported by a grant from the Blue Shield of California Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Two roommates from Fresno who requested a test at the same time from the same site got appointments almost a week apart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carson Blaker of Los Angeles sat in his car with his windows rolled up for over an hour in 90-degree heat, something he wished he’d known because his car doesn’t have air conditioning. Those without cars said walk-up testing can be harder to come by.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miles Campbell of Woodland learned on June 25 that a coworker at the supermarket warehouse where he works had tested positive for the coronavirus. He decided to get tested because he lives with his parents and didn’t want to potentially expose them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although he’d heard testing was free, he called his insurance to make sure he wouldn’t be surprised by a bill. He said the representative told him it would cover the cost only if the test was ordered by his primary care provider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campbell, 23, doesn’t have a primary doctor and didn’t have symptoms, so finding a provider to prescribe the test was a challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time he got tested on July 4, he was more than a week into his quarantine period — still not at work and potentially exposing his parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I definitely don’t think it was worth it. I’m going to work tomorrow, my 14 days are up, and I still don’t have the results,” he said last Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Yet accessing a test was no easier for him. Essential workers, with and without symptoms, are on “Tier 1” of the state’s current testing guidelines, which means they should be prioritized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sherrie Totoki, 33, got tested at San Francisco Community College. She was told she’d have results in two to three days, so she made plans to visit her sister who had just given birth in Los Angeles. After a week with no results, she was told the lab never received her test.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said that when she got to Los Angeles, she kept away from her family until she found an urgent care center in Pasadena that offered a new type of diagnostic test, known as an antigen test, designed for rapid detection of the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An hour and $125 later, she had a negative result. Later that day, she got a second message from her original free test in San Francisco, notifying her that her test had been found. The result: negative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was worth it because I wanted to see my nephew, but I spent a lot of time trying to get tested,” Totoki said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For 74-year-old Andy Lagomarsino of Stockton, waiting for results wasn’t the problem — it was the confusion around how to initiate the test. He said he drove to Sutter Gould Medical Foundation in late June. He was directed to drive up to a parking space and call the number on the parking post for further instructions. No appointment was required; it seemed easy enough, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Lagomarsino tells it, he spent more than an hour on the phone, but couldn’t get anyone to answer. He left and came back a second day. Then a third. “Eventually I got tested, but I had to make a big stink,” he said. “Trying to get tested was the biggest circus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His results came in the next day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an effort to improve testing, California has established a system of more than 1,000 public and private testing sites. The state also put out a testing information website, where people can find testing locations nearby. Many residents jumped at the chance, if only for peace of mind. In the CalMatters survey, 84% of respondents said they sought testing even though they didn’t have symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, along with the rest of the country, is again experiencing a shortage of supplies needed for testing, resulting in canceled appointments, the closing of test sites and longer waits for results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 4, public health officials asked California laboratories to prioritize patients with symptoms and those in hospitals, nursing homes or prisons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an interesting moment,” Newsom said during a press briefing last week. “There’s some supply chain concerns, at the same time, we’re doing a record number of tests.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
