I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

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.",

And while there is some degree of bipartisan support for reviewing the tactics that led to Floyd's death, cooperation is less certain on a legislative solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans were absent from Democratic talks to develop the legislation and for now are unlikely to support it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think we can easily find common ground on both sides and we can do it swiftly, but it's more difficult if you're away,\" House Minority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., told reporters Thursday, referencing an extended House recess as a result of the pandemic. \"Members of Congress should not be called back for one week and say, 'Here are all the bills.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic led-House is expected to take up the measure later this month, but its fate is much less clear in the Republican-controlled Senate. For now, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and many Republicans have acknowledged \"egregious wrongs\" in police brutality cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's certainly something that we need to take a look at,\" McConnell told reporters last week. \"We'll be talking to our colleagues about what, if anything, is appropriate for us to do in the wake of what's going on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congress has often struggled to address policing issues on a bipartisan basis as some say decisions about policing tactics, training and strategies should be solved at the state and local level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, announced a June 16 hearing on police use of force to \"shine a bright light on the problems associated with Mr. Floyd's death, with the goal of finding a better way forward for our nation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Democrats say it is critical that this legislation be comprehensive and ambitious, even if Senate Republicans refuse to consider the bill. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, said Democrats need to make sure the package reflects the demands of the people protesting and calling for change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The American public is going to get behind it,\" Cleaver said in an interview with NPR. \"They are saying they want substantive change. They want reform. Reforms that perhaps in the past people have been afraid to embrace.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='george-floyd']Cleaver said serving in Congress requires a certain level of courage to vote for legislation that may be controversial. He said in the past, lawmakers from both parties have shied away from addressing systemic issues with policing but he believes this moment is different.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Missouri Democrat, a former mayor of Kansas City, Mo., said the response to the killing of George Floyd gives Congress an opportunity to create uniform standards that help mayors and local leaders by giving them guidelines for conduct. He said federal laws can also provide political backup for local leaders when they meet resistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that the federal government must express itself,\" Cleaver said. \"Local communities all around the country who might be reticent about doing things that they believe would be helpful can say, 'Hey, that's the law.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Debate About Calls to 'Defund the Police'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The legislation does not address the growing movement among some protesters calling to defund police departments. California Rep. Karen Bass, chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, told reporters that the legislation aims instead to overhaul how policing is conducted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We feel it is transformative, that it will transform the relationships that our communities have with the police,\" Bass said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats at Monday's press conference largely avoided addressing the concept of defunding the police or their support for that demand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Congressional Republicans and their campaign operations have already begun attacking Democrats over the demand to defund the police. Outside groups and the official campaign organizations for House and Senate Republicans have begun linking rank-and-file Democrats to the defund movement. President Trump has also weighed in. Democrats, like Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., dismissed the tactic as a \"predictable and hurtful\" way to undermine the legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The same way there have been efforts to undermine the Black Lives Matter movement and to co-opt the narrative of what is actually happening throughout our glow in this moment, that commentary is certainly not surprising,\" Pressley said in an interview with NPR. \"Those efforts are always underway; we will not allow that narrative to persist and to obstruct the work that we need to do as a legislative body.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, released a statement on Monday saying he opposes defunding the police. He said he is supporting policies that would increase resources for programs outside of police departments to address societal issues \"so that officers can focus on the job of policing,\" as well as providing funding for body cameras and other measures inside police departments.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Higher Standards for Police\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Bass said while she couldn't confirm any Republicans are on board with the proposal yet, she's holding out hope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also noted that a wave of videos documenting new cases of police brutality at protests could provide new momentum for legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The world is watching the birth of a new movement in our country,\" Bass said Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill's authors say it addresses concerns of steep requirements to pursue penalties against police misconduct. It reforms qualified immunity for police officers, or their legal protection shield for certain actions, to allow individuals to recover damages when their constitutional rights are violated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it lowers the \"mens rea\" standard in the U.S. code to a finding of an officer's recklessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The current \u003cem>mens rea\u003c/em> standard of 'willfulness' has made it extremely difficult to prosecute law enforcement officers,\" the bill's sponsors told their colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the bill's other efforts:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>It creates a National Police Misconduct Registry to track police misconduct and thwart officers from switching jurisdictions to avoid accountability. The plan also looks to improve police practices by mandating training on racial bias and the duty to intervene.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It also limits the transfer of military-grade weapons to state and local law enforcement agencies and requires the use of body cameras.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The legislation would also empower attorneys general and the Justice Department to play a much larger role in its oversight of police agencies. For example, it would create a grant program to allow attorneys general to independently investigate police misconduct and excessive use of force. And it would give the Justice Department greater powers to investigate and track cases.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It would also condition federal funding for state and local police agencies to their training and adoption of policies to combat racial bias and profiling, as well as ban \"no-knock\" warrants in drug-related cases and the use of choke-holds.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It also makes lynching a federal crime, a revival of legislation already approved in the House and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/06/05/871083578/gop-senator-rand-paul-seeks-changes-to-emmett-till-antilynching-act\">currently stalled in the Senate following failed attempts to pass it\u003c/a>.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The House could take up the measure when it is due to return June 30. However, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., told reporters last week that lawmakers could return sooner to approve the plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.

Outside groups and the official campaign organizations for House and Senate Republicans have begun linking rank-and-file Democrats to the defund movement. President Trump has also weighed in.

It reforms qualified immunity for police officers, or their legal protection shield for certain actions, to allow individuals to recover damages when their constitutional rights are violated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it lowers the \"mens rea\" standard in the U.S. code to a finding of an officer's recklessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The current \u003cem>mens rea\u003c/em> standard of 'willfulness' has made it extremely difficult to prosecute law enforcement officers,\" the bill's sponsors told their colleagues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the bill's other efforts:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>It creates a National Police Misconduct Registry to track police misconduct and thwart officers from switching jurisdictions to avoid accountability. The plan also looks to improve police practices by mandating training on racial bias and the duty to intervene.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It also limits the transfer of military-grade weapons to state and local law enforcement agencies and requires the use of body cameras.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>The legislation would also empower attorneys general and the Justice Department to play a much larger role in its oversight of police agencies. For example, it would create a grant program to allow attorneys general to independently investigate police misconduct and excessive use of force. And it would give the Justice Department greater powers to investigate and track cases.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It would also condition federal funding for state and local police agencies to their training and adoption of policies to combat racial bias and profiling, as well as ban \"no-knock\" warrants in drug-related cases and the use of choke-holds.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>It also makes lynching a federal crime, a revival of legislation already approved in the House and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/06/05/871083578/gop-senator-rand-paul-seeks-changes-to-emmett-till-antilynching-act\">currently stalled in the Senate following failed attempts to pass it\u003c/a>.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The House could take up the measure when it is due to return June 30.

Supervisor Shamann Walton introduced the proposal on Tuesday as a resolution co-sponsored by seven other supervisors. Walton and Boudin claim that this new policy change would boost police accountability and protect the public from police misconduct. On Monday, Boudin joined four other current and former prosecutors in asking the California State Bar to prohibit district attorneys from accepting campaign donations from police unions. Boudin and the other prosecutors cited the killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man by Minneapolis police officers, for their support of the proposal. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chesa Boudin, San Francisco district attorney\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Future of Policing\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When cases of police violence against black people become public,\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">protests often follow. There is talk of police reform, including the need for implicit bias training and reducing the use of force, in order to prevent such travesties from occurring again. In recent years, however, many protest leaders and some academics have increasingly called for more drastic change — through slashing funding for law enforcement. \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\">Alex Vitale, professor of sociology, Brooklyn College\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jody David Armour, professor of law, USC Gould School of Law\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Protesting Amid the Pandemic\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The public outrage to George Floyd’s killing has motivated tens of thousands of people across the nation to protest, even in the midst of a pandemic. Transmission of the coronavirus is highest in closed spaces with poor ventilation and while being in close proximity to a carrier. While most of the protests have been outdoors and many protesters are wearing face coverings, social distancing is difficult to do in a large crowd. But racial inequality also results in poor health outcomes that are reflected in higher COVID-19 mortality rates among blacks and Latinos. Prolonged periods of stress can also result in poor maternal health for pregnant women, which is a growing concern for clinicians treating pregnant women during the pandemic. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Rachel Hartshorn, East Bay obstetrician/gynecologist\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Supervisor Shamann Walton introduced the proposal on Tuesday as a resolution co-sponsored by seven other supervisors. Walton and Boudin claim that this new policy change would boost police accountability and protect the public from police misconduct. On Monday, Boudin joined four other current and former prosecutors in asking the California State Bar to prohibit district attorneys from accepting campaign donations from police unions. Boudin and the other prosecutors cited the killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man by Minneapolis police officers, for their support of the proposal. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chesa Boudin, San Francisco district attorney\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Future of Policing\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When cases of police violence against black people become public,\u003c/span> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">protests often follow. There is talk of police reform, including the need for implicit bias training and reducing the use of force, in order to prevent such travesties from occurring again. In recent years, however, many protest leaders and some academics have increasingly called for more drastic change — through slashing funding for law enforcement. \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\">Alex Vitale, professor of sociology, Brooklyn College\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jody David Armour, professor of law, USC Gould School of Law\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Protesting Amid the Pandemic\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The public outrage to George Floyd’s killing has motivated tens of thousands of people across the nation to protest, even in the midst of a pandemic. Transmission of the coronavirus is highest in closed spaces with poor ventilation and while being in close proximity to a carrier. While most of the protests have been outdoors and many protesters are wearing face coverings, social distancing is difficult to do in a large crowd. But racial inequality also results in poor health outcomes that are reflected in higher COVID-19 mortality rates among blacks and Latinos. Prolonged periods of stress can also result in poor maternal health for pregnant women, which is a growing concern for clinicians treating pregnant women during the pandemic. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On Friday, California’s attorney general announced plans to review and reform the Vallejo Police Department (VPD).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When our communities speak up, we must listen — and, in recent days, people across California and the nation, and in Vallejo, have bravely come together to make their voices heard,” Attorney General Xavier Becerra said in a \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-becerra-announces-agreement-review-and-reform-vallejo-police\">statement\u003c/a>. “This is only a first step in our broader fight for racial justice. We must all do our part, and we must do it now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Department of Justice will collaborate with the city and VPD to create a policing plan that aims to improve use-of-force procedures, anti-bias and community policing and accountability, by focusing on training, policy and transparency, Becerra's office said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This policy review was entered into with cooperation from the city of Vallejo and its police department, and will produce recommendations for changes. The review is different from a \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/file/how-pp-investigations-work/download\">\"pattern-or-practice\" investigation\u003c/a>, which would allow the attorney general’s office to both investigate departmental practices and force changes through a court order. It’s possible that the current policy review could become a pattern-or-practice investigation, if Becerra’s office determines that to be necessary. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"george-floyd\" label=\"related coverage\"]Still, Tuesday's VPD killing of Sean Monterrosa, a Latino man from San Francisco, contributes to a long-standing \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/135682/amid-a-series-of-vallejo-police-shootings-one-officers-name-stands-out\">history\u003c/a> of community mistrust of the police, as calls for justice and outside intervention continue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officer who killed Monterrosa has been placed on leave pending an investigation by the department, though he has yet to be identified. Meanwhile, residents are demanding the officer be fired and body camera footage be released. Rep. Mike Thompson, D-Helena, is also calling for an independent investigation of the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“His family, loved ones and community deserve to have a clear understanding of the events that led to this shooting. That’s why I support an independent investigation into the incident. If wrongdoing is found, justice must be upheld,” Thompson said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To pay for legal fees and funeral arrangements, Monterrosa's family created a \u003ca href=\"https://www.gofundme.com/f/gofundmecomSeanMonterrosa\">GoFundMe\u003c/a> page. \"He was a wonderful son, brother, friend who touched the lives of those around him. He was loyal, hard working, and had a heart of gold. He was truly one of a kind,\" the page says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Unarmed, Shot While on His Knees\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The fatal shooting of Monterrosa occurred as protests across the country erupted following the recent police killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade and others. But demonstrations against police violence \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768008/the-life-and-death-of-willie-mccoy\">aren’t new to Vallejo\u003c/a> — in fact, residents have been protesting for reform and social justice for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amid recent protests Tuesday morning shortly after midnight, officers responded to reports of a break-in at a Walgreens, said Vallejo Police Chief Shawny Williams during a press conference on Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"John Burris, an attorney for Monterrosa's family\"]'This young man was shot multiple times while he was on his knees and appeared to be trying to surrender.'[/pullquote]Officers saw Monterrosa running, when suddenly he stopped and kneeled, placing his hands above his waist, Williams said, revealing what officers believed to be the butt of a gun.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officer fired five times through a police car windshield, hitting Monterrosa once, according to Williams. An investigation revealed Monterrosa had a 15-inch hammer tucked into his sweatshirt pocket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Burris, an attorney for the family, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/b426090f37435d1b824a3ef9c2ee7ebd\">told the Associated Press\u003c/a> he is appalled police would shoot at a person who was on his knees with his hands raised.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This young man was shot multiple times while he was on his knees and appeared to be trying to surrender,” Burris said, adding that he understands tensions have been high. “But one has to maintain control and you don’t get to arbitrarily shoot someone in a panic, just because the situation is excitable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Renewed Demands for Justice\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Among those attending Thursday's press conference on Monterrosa’s killing was Alicia Saddler, whose brother \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11768852/one-night-two-narratives\">Angel Ramos was shot and killed\u003c/a> by Vallejo police in 2017. Police said they thought he was stabbing another person during a fight — but no knife was found near him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fire him! Not paid leave, fire him for killing a man that was on his knees!” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saddler has repeatedly called on the department to hold its officers accountable for deaths like her brother's, and said it’s been hard to get locals to organize around police killings. Families like Saddler's have struggled for years to raise awareness of what they see as a pattern of black and brown men gunned down by local police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Alicia Saddler, whose brother was shot and killed by Vallejo Police in 2017\"]'People are caring, our youth are caring, people of our community and everybody’s coming together.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Saddler sees national protests since the killing of George Floyd as a moment of reckoning for Vallejo, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Monterrosa’s killing, roughly 100 people attended a march she held in Vallejo for her brother and George Floyd. The protest also marked what would have been her brother’s 25th birthday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between the deaths of Floyd and now, Monterrosa, she said things might be shifting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are caring, our youth are caring, people of our community and everybody’s coming together,” she said. “And I’m just really glad for that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Devin Katayama and The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

On Friday, California’s attorney general announced plans to review and reform the Vallejo Police Department (VPD).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When our communities speak up, we must listen — and, in recent days, people across California and the nation, and in Vallejo, have bravely come together to make their voices heard,” Attorney General Xavier Becerra said in a \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-becerra-announces-agreement-review-and-reform-vallejo-police\">statement\u003c/a>. “This is only a first step in our broader fight for racial justice. We must all do our part, and we must do it now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state Department of Justice will collaborate with the city and VPD to create a policing plan that aims to improve use-of-force procedures, anti-bias and community policing and accountability, by focusing on training, policy and transparency, Becerra's office said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This policy review was entered into with cooperation from the city of Vallejo and its police department, and will produce recommendations for changes. The review is different from a \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/file/how-pp-investigations-work/download\">\"pattern-or-practice\" investigation\u003c/a>, which would allow the attorney general’s office to both investigate departmental practices and force changes through a court order. It’s possible that the current policy review could become a pattern-or-practice investigation, if Becerra’s office determines that to be necessary. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We've all seen people widely spaced apart. But then, of course, if you saw the Portland Bridge ... they were pretty close together. So I do think there is a risk there. I mean, there was equally a risk Memorial Day weekend when we saw people out partying with no social distancing and no masks. So I think that's a real contrast. But certainly it brings public health people concern around testing and watching trends.\" — Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, professor of pediatrics, epidemiology and population health, Stanford University School of Medicine\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Q: The surgeon general of the United States, Dr. Jerome Adams, said this could lead to not only new outbreaks, but it could lead to new clusters. How worried should we be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: \"We're learning more about these potential super-spreading events or super-spreading phenomena, and it's hard to know ... I think we're learning a lot right now about what might happen. We've been tracking, at least I have been tracking the post-Memorial Day situation in particular in areas where there was a lot of partying. And surprisingly, either people aren't getting tested or they're really not getting infected. Either of those could be true. I'm sure the public health departments in these areas are really looking into additional surveillance.\" — Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, professor of pediatrics, epidemiology and population health, Stanford University School of Medicine\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Q: What do we know about screaming, coughing, chanting or singing and the spread of the coronavirus?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: \"A lot of these engineers and physicists have been publishing more and more data around this idea. And for us epidemiologists 'aerosol' means one thing that's different from what a physicist thinks.

We've all seen people widely spaced apart. But then, of course, if you saw the Portland Bridge ... they were pretty close together. So I do think there is a risk there. I mean, there was equally a risk Memorial Day weekend when we saw people out partying with no social distancing and no masks. So I think that's a real contrast.

How worried should we be?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: \"We're learning more about these potential super-spreading events or super-spreading phenomena, and it's hard to know ... I think we're learning a lot right now about what might happen. We've been tracking, at least I have been tracking the post-Memorial Day situation in particular in areas where there was a lot of partying. And surprisingly, either people aren't getting tested or they're really not getting infected. Either of those could be true. I'm sure the public health departments in these areas are really looking into additional surveillance.\" — Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, professor of pediatrics, epidemiology and population health, Stanford University School of Medicine\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Q: What do we know about screaming, coughing, chanting or singing and the spread of the coronavirus?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: \"A lot of these engineers and physicists have been publishing more and more data around this idea.
