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.",

As of publication, this list includes San Francisco, Santa Clara, Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, Sonoma, Alameda and Solano counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Southern California, the city of Los Angeles has also announced its intention to pause the use of this vaccine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco COVID Command Center informed through its own statement that out of the 33,000 doses of the J&J vaccine that the city has administered so far, there are no reported cases of blood clotting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As this adverse event is reported to be extremely rare with just over six reported cases nationwide, we do not believe there is cause for immediate alarm,” city officials said, adding that anyone who has received the J&J vaccine should contact their care provider if they experience severe headache, abdominal pain, leg pain or shortness of breath within three weeks after vaccination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only 5% of the doses San Francisco received this week are of the J&J vaccine. Similarly, other counties have indicated that this vaccine makes up a very small proportion of their supplies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Marin County, J&J doses account for less than 3% of the county’s cumulative vaccine allocation, according to health officials. The county expects to use Pfizer and Moderna doses instead in its efforts to vaccinate harder-to-reach groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similarly, Santa Clara County said in its own statement that it “anticipates being able to cover all scheduled appointments with the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"San Francisco COVID Command Center\"]‘The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines … are proven to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization or death from COVID-19.’[/pullquote]Contra Costa County, for its part, has made it clear that it does not plan to cancel any vaccination appointments, and residents who have already made an appointment should still show up to their vaccination time. The county also shared that it does not know of any cases of blood clots connected to the COVID-19 vaccines it has already administered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the counties were clear in pointing out the safety of the other two vaccines. “The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines … are proven to be highly effective at preventing hospitalization or death from COVID-19,” said the San Francisco COVID Command Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pause on J&J vaccines may now make it more difficult for public health officials to promote the use of this type of vaccine.

Federal officials recommended pausing use of the vaccine until they know more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 6.8 million doses of the J&J vaccine have been administered in the U.S., the vast majority with no or mild side effects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label ='Related Coverage' tag='vaccines,vaccine']A CDC committee will meet Wednesday to discuss the cases, and the FDA has also launched an investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State epidemiologist Dr. Erica Pan also said California will convene a regional scientific safety workgroup to review information provided by the federal government.

She lives with her husband, mother-in-law and 1-year-old baby.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While she’s gotten tested before, she’s felt a bit hesitant to take her mother-in-law, a senior, to public testing spots. “Will there be a lot of people who are already infected? Will they charge?

Misinformation includes believing that the vaccine has dangerous side effects (like infertility or mutations), or that it was developed too quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second bucket consists of what Fernández refers to as alternate health beliefs: deeply held ideas about professional medicine or different types of care that make it difficult for an individual to go out and seek immunization. Alternative understandings of wellness can sometimes come from family traditions or a desire to provide care when hospitals are inaccessible due to lack of coverage or language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These beliefs may include never getting a vaccination, never putting anything into their body,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there’s everything else, but Fernández explained that an overarching feeling of worry relating to health and receiving care explains many of these experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I try to do is sort out what people are feeling.

She’s identified a couple broad categories so she can address these anxieties more effectively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first bucket is misinformation,” she said. Misinformation includes believing that the vaccine has dangerous side effects (like infertility or mutations), or that it was developed too quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second bucket consists of what Fernández refers to as alternate health beliefs: deeply held ideas about professional medicine or different types of care that make it difficult for an individual to go out and seek immunization. Alternative understandings of wellness can sometimes come from family traditions or a desire to provide care when hospitals are inaccessible due to lack of coverage or language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These beliefs may include never getting a vaccination, never putting anything into their body,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there’s everything else, but Fernández explained that an overarching feeling of worry relating to health and receiving care explains many of these experiences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I try to do is sort out what people are feeling.

They found that 110 miles, or 78.6% of streets, could potentially qualify as narrow streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will just drive around and park somewhere every night and then move, I guess,” Stevens said. “I really don’t know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measure C was originally an ordinance adopted by the City Council in October 2019. But after several organizations — including the American Civil Liberties Union and the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley — sent a letter demanding the ordinance to be suspended and a petition was filed against the ordinance. It was suspended, and RV dwellers were still allowed to park their RVs on city streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Trujillo, a staff attorney with the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley, signed the original letter opposing the ordinance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This ban on oversized vehicle parking in Mountain View is cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment, and that comes from a decision called \u003ca href=\"http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2019/04/01/15-35845.pdf\">\u003cem>Martin v. Boise\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, which was decided in 2018,” Trujillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that case, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that because the city of Boise, Idaho, hadn’t provided people with an adequate alternative to sleeping outside, they couldn’t be punished for being homeless.

They primarily consist of undocumented workers and other low-income residents who have lost substantial income during the COVID-19 pandemic, and have not been eligible for unemployment assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re looking at an eviction time bomb,” said Michael Trujillo, an attorney at the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley (LFSV), the nonprofit group that co-authored the report, in collaboration with Working Partnerships USA. That potential wave of evictions — roughly 16 times the average number filed in the county in an entire year — would have devastating, widespread impacts, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Michael Trujillo, Law Foundation of Silicon Valley\"]‘We’re just really concerned about the disparate impact this would have on Black and Latinx households and folks who may be undocumented as well.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a huge risk of a surge in homelessness, which could be over a 200% increase,” Trujillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those at greatest risk of eviction in the county, where \u003ca href=\"https://www.rentcafe.com/average-rent-market-trends/us/ca/santa-clara-county/santa-clara/\">average rent\u003c/a> is nearly $3,000, are disproportionately people of color, households headed by women and families of young children, according to the group’s analysis of unemployment insurance claims and census data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 212,000 Santa Clara County workers — or one in every five workers in the county — filed unemployment claims between March 15 and May 30, the report found. The majority of those claims covered fields that include a large number of low-wage jobs, where Black and Latinx workers are disproportionately represented. Not included in that number, the report notes, are the estimated 95,000 undocumented workers in the county who are ineligible for unemployment benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just really concerned about the disparate impact this would have on Black and Latinx households and folks who may be undocumented as well,” Trujillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report’s dire warning comes just over a month before the county’s eviction moratorium is set to expire. Enacted soon after shelter-in-place restrictions went into effect in late March, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/osh/EvictionMoratorium/Pages/home.aspx\">the countywide order\u003c/a> bars landlords from evicting tenants for non-payment of rent due to significant pandemic-related income loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants have up to six months after the moratorium expires on Aug. 31 — which officials already extended from May 31 — to repay at least 50% of past-due rent, and up to a year to repay the full amount.

They primarily consist of undocumented workers and other low-income residents who have lost substantial income during the COVID-19 pandemic, and have not been eligible for unemployment assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re looking at an eviction time bomb,” said Michael Trujillo, an attorney at the Law Foundation of Silicon Valley (LFSV), the nonprofit group that co-authored the report, in collaboration with Working Partnerships USA. That potential wave of evictions — roughly 16 times the average number filed in the county in an entire year — would have devastating, widespread impacts, he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The majority of those claims covered fields that include a large number of low-wage jobs, where Black and Latinx workers are disproportionately represented. Not included in that number, the report notes, are the estimated 95,000 undocumented workers in the county who are ineligible for unemployment benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just really concerned about the disparate impact this would have on Black and Latinx households and folks who may be undocumented as well,” Trujillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report’s dire warning comes just over a month before the county’s eviction moratorium is set to expire. Enacted soon after shelter-in-place restrictions went into effect in late March, \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/osh/EvictionMoratorium/Pages/home.aspx\">the countywide order\u003c/a> bars landlords from evicting tenants for non-payment of rent due to significant pandemic-related income loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tenants have up to six months after the moratorium expires on Aug. 31 — which officials already extended from May 31 — to repay at least 50% of past-due rent, and up to a year to repay the full amount. That repayment, however, is on top of whatever rent those tenants will continue to owe on a monthly basis, a particularly daunting challenge amid ongoing economic fallout as the coronavirus cases continue to surge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The emergency protections are similar to those \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11809833/stressed-about-paying-your-april-rent-check-here-first\">enacted in most other Bay Area counties\u003c/a> — and much of the rest of the state — where low-income people of color have been hit hardest by the pandemic, both physically and financially.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really going to devastate Black and Latinx renters who, of course, are most likely to be working in industries that have been affected by COVID and also most likely to be highly rent burdened in the first place,” Trujillo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Rob Shibata runs \u003ca href=\"http://www.mteden.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mount Eden Floral Wholesale\u003c/a>, one of the largest wholesalers in the region. When shelter-in-place orders were announced, Shibata had to shut down his warehouse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to dump or give away our entire inventory of fresh flowers,” Shibata said. “That was well into six figures of what we had to discard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 4, Shibata was able to finally reopen, but only for delivery. He understands his warehouse is considered non-essential, and he doesn’t want the virus to spread further, but he’s confident he could maintain social distancing. What’s the difference, he wonders, between ordering a pizza versus ordering a bouquet of flowers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the difference to the government is that it’s simpler to make a one-size-all-fits rule, regardless of whether there’s a difference in the public health risk,” Shibata said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Select wholesalers in California have been able to reopen for distribution, including the \u003ca href=\"https://www.sanfranciscoflowermart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Flower Mart\u003c/a>, which reopened on April 22, and the \u003ca href=\"http://originallaflowermarket.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Los Angeles Flower Market\u003c/a>, which reopened on May 8. Shibata is a vendor at both markets and is happy he can move inventory somewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11817166\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11817166\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/05/RS43064_021_KQED_SanFrancisco_FlowerMart_05062020-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Roses at Chak Nursery in the San Francisco Flower Mart on May 5, 2020.

Gavin Newsom. But the rules are also about to loosen for retailers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You will have the capacity as a retailer to begin to reopen for pickup: clothing, bookstores, florists — with Mother’s Day coming up,” Newsom said in a press conference on May 4.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those loosening restrictions don’t apply to Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties, and the city of Berkeley — non-essential and non-outdoor businesses still can’t provide curbside pickup services.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Good News, a Little Too Late\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Fractal Flora recently received good news — the shop will receive a $32,000 Paycheck Protection Program loan from Chase Bank. But the store owners must spend 75% of that loan on payroll within eight weeks. Otherwise, the loan won’t be forgiven, and she’ll be on the hook to pay the interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely a mixed bag, because, ‘Yay, we got the loan!’ ” Kim said. “But now I’m apprehensive about spending it because I don’t know if that loan will be forgiven.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Again, Kim had to lay off her six part-time employees months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I can’t spend 75% of that loan in two months,” Kim said. “I feel like I have no choice but to give it back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
