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.",

She knows. She’s homeless, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have no running water to keep themselves sanitized,” she said. “Resources have dried up. Churches are closed. People are hungry, starving.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Moore, 52, became an activist when a state transportation agency ordered the camp where she lived to close in October. Moore netted new connections with nonprofits while protesting the camp’s closure and working with Alameda County officials to open an alternative shelter. It’s a network she now uses to gather the supplies she brings to camp communities in Hayward and San Leandro. She’s been visiting them daily since the coronavirus outbreak, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s frustrating,” Moore said. “There’s no social distancing in the camps. They don’t know what to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the Bay Area, advocates for people experiencing homelessness have told KQED it’s been incredibly difficult to implement the CDC’s recommended guidelines for limiting the spread of the novel coronavirus. Supplies are scarce, they say, and there’s not always a clear answer to questions of how to shelter someone if they are extremely high risk, or where to take someone who is exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms but may not yet be considered a severe case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Karen Hanrahan, president and CEO of the GLIDE Foundation\"]'There is a palpable fear among the homeless community we serve because they have no information and they’re scared they are going to die.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karen Hanrahan, president and CEO of the San Francisco-based nonprofit GLIDE Foundation, said many clients don’t have enough information about the virus, despite the outreach city officials say is happening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is a palpable fear among the homeless community we serve because they have no information, and they’re scared they are going to die,” Hanrahan said. “They have more underlying health risks and conditions, and they feel like nobody is going to take care of them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phil Mastrocola, the program director for the Grace Baptist Church’s shelter in San Jose, said his only recourse when someone shows up sick is to send them to urgent care. That’s what happened the other day when a guest came in with a cough and chills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I sent him to urgent care,” Mastrocola said. “They sent him back with a letter that was very clear saying he has no signs or conditions of fever or upper respiratory problems, so that gave me some comfort.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, he let the man stay the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several counties, including in Alameda, San Francisco and Santa Clara, have begun offering hotel rooms, RVs or other shelters to people experiencing homelessness. In Alameda County, health officials have started moving people who are experiencing symptoms, along with some people considered high risk, into two hotels to isolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara County, public health staff is hoping to open a temporary shelter by the end of the week at its fairgrounds to maintain social distancing at the nearly two dozen shelters in the county. In San Francisco, the city is quarantining people in hotel rooms and plans to open a new temporary shelter next week at Moscone Center West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for people who are homeless say it’s not happening soon enough. Only a relatively small portion of people living in shelters or camps can take advantage of these programs. And in the meantime, people living in shelters and encampments are risking exposure to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11810155\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 919px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11810155 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"919\" height=\"847\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg 919w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-160x147.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-800x737.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 919px) 100vw, 919px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Berkeley Free Clinic has installed DIY hand washing stations and hand sanitizer at camp communities in Berkeley.

Joe Pendleton is a three-tour veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He lives in a van in Berkeley and does outreach to the tent communities in his city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One man he visits is receiving chemotherapy treatment and has emphysema, Pendleton said. He worked with a church group to get the man a hotel room for two weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No immune system with a compromised airway,” Pendleton said. “This gentleman absolutely had to get into a hotel room.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It can sometimes be hard to distinguish symptoms of underlying health conditions from ones related to COVID-19, said a psychiatric nurse who works for a clinic in San Francisco. She spoke on the condition of anonymity because she’s not authorized to speak to the press. She said people come into her community health clinic all the time, coughing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without enough personal protective equipment, she said she’s terrified of passing the virus on to her family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I come home, I strip in the garage and put everything in the washer and go immediately to the shower,” the nurse said. “It’s stressful.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With gyms, libraries and other services closed, the places many depended upon for survival to shower or charge phones are also no longer available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"coronavirus\" label=\"related coverage\"]Lauren, a 29-year-old server in San Jose, had been paying a gym membership to take showers. She declined to give her last name because she said her employer doesn’t know she lives out of her camper truck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a whole population of people who work part time and are in between places, Lauren said, who depend on gyms as their main place to get clean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It just really struck me that they weren’t being deemed essential, not for working out, but as far as using the showers,” Lauren said. “I think that was a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley, volunteers with the Berkeley Free Clinic have installed makeshift hand washing stations because they say the 22 stations the city installed are not enough. The clinic’s hand washing stations consist of two plastic buckets, a pump and a soap dispenser with instructions written in permanent ink of who to call if it runs out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Portable toilets at the encampments could be breeding grounds for the virus, Perry said, and some people are afraid to use them.

That’s what happened the other day when a guest came in with a cough and chills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I sent him to urgent care,” Mastrocola said. “They sent him back with a letter that was very clear saying he has no signs or conditions of fever or upper respiratory problems, so that gave me some comfort.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, he let the man stay the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several counties, including in Alameda, San Francisco and Santa Clara, have begun offering hotel rooms, RVs or other shelters to people experiencing homelessness. In Alameda County, health officials have started moving people who are experiencing symptoms, along with some people considered high risk, into two hotels to isolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Santa Clara County, public health staff is hoping to open a temporary shelter by the end of the week at its fairgrounds to maintain social distancing at the nearly two dozen shelters in the county. In San Francisco, the city is quarantining people in hotel rooms and plans to open a new temporary shelter next week at Moscone Center West.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for people who are homeless say it’s not happening soon enough. Only a relatively small portion of people living in shelters or camps can take advantage of these programs. And in the meantime, people living in shelters and encampments are risking exposure to the virus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11810155\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 919px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11810155 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"919\" height=\"847\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1.jpg 919w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-160x147.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/BFC-2-1-800x737.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 919px) 100vw, 919px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Berkeley Free Clinic has installed DIY hand washing stations and hand sanitizer at camp communities in Berkeley.

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

"content": "\u003cp>Bay Area public health officials and advocates for the homeless are scrambling to figure out how to shield a potential spread of novel coronavirus from reaching some of our most vulnerable populations: people living in shelters, cars or in encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeless people are at high risk if they contract the virus, say health professionals, because they often suffer from underlying health conditions, get limited medical care and lack access to running water while sometimes living in close quarters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have all the same health concerns that a general person would have,” said Dr. Danielle Williams, a family physician at Roots Community Health Center. She often treats people living in encampments who have high blood pressure, diabetes, wounds and suppressed immune systems — not to mention insecure shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They're worried about shelter, food and to have to think about another thing,\" Williams said. “So keeping hands clean is going to be very difficult.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California state officials at the Department of Public Health are not currently concerned with a potential spread of the virus to homeless populations, but say they are continuing to monitor the possibility. In a statement, the agency said “persons experiencing homelessness are not likely to have any particular risk for COVID-19 related to international travel or exposure to recent travelers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, which \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1957877/live-updates-coronavirus-in-the-san-francisco-bay-area\">declared a state of emergency Wednesday\u003c/a>, is also home to the nation’s largest population of homeless residents. And while there have been no confirmed cases among homeless individuals in the U.S., health officials stress the need to have a plan in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\" Joshua Bamberger, associate director of the UCSF Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative\"]'What these emergencies highlight is our basic failure of our system to serve the most vulnerable amongst us.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development released an infectious disease toolkit \u003ca href=\"https://files.hudexchange.info/resources/documents/Infectious-Disease-Toolkit-for-CoCs-Preventing-and-Managing-the-Spread-of-Infectious-Disease-within-Encampments.pdf\">report \u003c/a>this week, advising local counties on best practices for preventing and managing the spread of disease within encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whether encampments are sanctioned or unsanctioned, developing and enforcing sanitation guidelines is essential to prevent disease spread,” the report says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the hand washing strategy, which is a critical part of prevention, is hard to maintain at encampments, said Joshua Bamberger, associate director of the UCSF Benioff Homelessness and Housing Initiative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What these emergencies highlight is our basic failure of our system to serve the most vulnerable amongst us,” said Bamberger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Isolating people without a home to quarantine themselves in could present the most challenging task, said Bamberger, who suggested armories as a possible place for patient isolation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to be preparing now because when it does, it's not going to leave us much time to develop the resources,” said Bamberger. “We have to have the protocols in place, the materials in place and the physical structures in place so that homeless people can be adequately housed during this epidemic, if it comes to pass.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although some county public health officials say guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how to protect homeless populations isn’t coming in fast enough, it hasn’t stopped some from preparing for the worst.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They are a more vulnerable population and it makes sense to plan for them,” said Peter Beilenson, director of health services for Sacramento County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beilenson has instructed shelter and outreach staff to identify clients who are showing significant lung disease symptoms, and bring them to local hospitals to be tested for COVID-19.

She often treats people living in encampments who have high blood pressure, diabetes, wounds and suppressed immune systems — not to mention insecure shelter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They're worried about shelter, food and to have to think about another thing,\" Williams said. “So keeping hands clean is going to be very difficult.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California state officials at the Department of Public Health are not currently concerned with a potential spread of the virus to homeless populations, but say they are continuing to monitor the possibility. In a statement, the agency said “persons experiencing homelessness are not likely to have any particular risk for COVID-19 related to international travel or exposure to recent travelers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California, which \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1957877/live-updates-coronavirus-in-the-san-francisco-bay-area\">declared a state of emergency Wednesday\u003c/a>, is also home to the nation’s largest population of homeless residents.
