SAN DIEGO, Calif. (KGTV) - As deaths in the US from suicide and opioid overdose skyrocket, San Diego health leaders have plans already in action to fight the rising trend."People are living in a lot of pain," says Dana Richardson, who oversees the Community Health and Engagement department at the Community Health Improvement Partners (CHIP)."We're talking about promoting resilience, problem-solving skills and reducing isolation."In San Diego in 2017, 458 people committed suicide, and 1,266 people died from an overdose. Richardson says the link between the two can't be ignored.The Centers for Disease Control says those two factors are the reason that life expectancy dropped in the US for the first time in years. According to a CDC report, someone born in 2018 can expect to live to be 78.6 years old, down from 78.7 in 2017.While the drop is slight, the factors causing it are significant."This is a large epidemic across the country," says Dr. Sayone Thihalolipavan, a Deputy Public Health Officer for the County Department of Health and Human Services.Thihalolipavan says the county has already put out health alerts warning people about Fentanyl, a highly potent opioid that can cause a fatal overdose from just a few microscopic particles. They have also received several state and federal grants to buy thousands of doses of Naloxone, a drug used to fight the effects of an opioid overdose.Across the nation, Fentanyl was responsible for 28,466 of the 70,237 overdose-related deaths in 2017.Other grants have paid for the training of medical professionals in the East County, where overdose numbers are higher. They're teaching doctors, nurses and pharmacists about which opioids are safer to prescribe, and in what amount. The hope is the training will help people avoid addiction and dependency, which can lead to abuse.Other health officials are looking at the link between alcohol abuse and suicides.A recent county study showed that the top three areas in San Diego for suicide rates all rank in the top five for the prevalence of alcohol licenses and sales. Richardson believes that shows alcohol's role in people choosing to take their own life."It's a mind-altering drug," he says.The county also has a website, Up2SD.org and a crisis hotline (888-724-7240) set up for anyone who needs help. 2321

SAN DIEGO (KGTV)—This May, 10News is celebrating Asian Pacific American Heritage Month by featuring several stories of the Asian-Pacific-Islander experience in San Diego.During World War II, nearly 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans living on the West Coast were forcibly removed from their homes and sent to desolate incarceration camps.One of those internment survivors lives in La Jolla today. She shared her story about a beloved city librarian who gave her hope, while she lived behind bars.It was a different time. No computers. No internet. Just the Dewey Decimal System. The San Diego Public Library was not a downtown skyscraper. At its helm was Miss Clara Estelle Breed. “She was here for 25 years,” Special Collections Librarian Rick Crawford said. “It’s the longest tenure for a librarian we’ve had here as a Head Librarian.”Crawford remembers a woman with a lifelong love of literature. She was instrumental in modernizing the city’s multiple branch system, he said. But perhaps her greatest legacy was borne from conflict. On December 7, 1941, Imperial Japanese planes attacked Pearl Harbor. The bombings and suicide attacks destroyed hundreds of American military ships and aircraft and killed more than 2,400 people on Oahu Island. “Life changed for not only me but everyone,” Elizabeth Kikuchi Yamada remembered. She was a 12-year-old San Diegan when the attack took place in Hawaii.Suddenly, everyone who looked like Elizabeth was deemed the enemy. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066 forced anyone of Japanese ancestry, American citizens included, into incarceration camps. This was ordered in reaction to the Pearl Harbor attacks, with the intention of preventing espionage on American shores. “I was fearful,” Kikuchi said. The Kikuchi’s had one week to pack and report to Santa Fe Station in Downtown San Diego. There, the 12-year-old saw a familiar face.“Clara had given everyone postcards saying, ‘write to me,’” Kikuchi remembered. Breed was passing out hundreds of pre-stamped postcards and letter sets to children at the station, pleading with them to stay in touch.During this time, Breed was San Diego’s Children’s Librarian. Many of her visitors were Japanese American children; kids she cared for deeply.“She really fought resistance from the local community and of course the national opinion,” Crawford said. “I think she was very concerned about their future.”So the correspondence began, first from the converted horse stables at the Santa Anita Assembly Center. This was where more than 18,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans were first sent while their more permanent internment camps were being built. “Dear Miss Breed,” Kikuchi read her imperfect cursive. “How are you getting along? Now that school is started, I suppose you’re busy at the library.”In return, Breed always sent books and little trinkets to the dozens of children who wrote to her. This continued, even after the San Diego group was transferred to Poston Internment Camp in Arizona. There, Clara became their lifeline to the outside world. “I took the book “House for Elizabeth,” and it kept me from being lonesome,” Kikuchi said. Lonesome, staring at the desolate Arizona landscape. But that book gave Elizabeth a sense of belonging. “It’s like she read my mind. She knew I needed a house,” Kikuchi said, hugging the book. She never threw it away.Three years later, the war ended, and the Japanese Americans were released from the incarceration camps. In the following decades, Elizabeth and Clara Breed remained close friends. Before her death in 1994, Clara gave Elizabeth all of her saved letters and trinkets. They have since been donated as artifacts to the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles, CA. Clara Breed was a lifelong Miss, who had no children of her own. But she touched the lives of many. They were the innocent Japanese American children who remember the brave woman who met wartime hysteria and xenophobia with love. This legacy, Kikuchi said, would live on forever. “Clara cared about helping young people know that there was freedom beyond imprisonment,” Kikuchi said. “Freedom of the mind to grow and freedom of the heart to deepen. She gave us all of that.”Years later, the FBI concluded that there was not a single instance of disloyalty or espionage committed by the nearly 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans imprisoned in the ten internment camps across mainland United States. In fact, around 33,000 Japanese Americans served in the American military during WWII, while their families remained imprisoned. The Japanese internment camps are considered one of the most egregious violations of American civil rights in the 20th century. President Ronald Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act in 1988 to give a formal apology for the atrocities. This legislation offered each living internment survivor ,000 in compensation. 4909

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) – A California Assemblymember Thursday requested a state audit to review how that City and County of San Diego responded to a recent hepatitis A outbreak.In a letter to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee, Assemblymember Todd Gloria asks that the committee “determine whether both the County and City identified, contained, and treated the recent Hepatitis A virus (HAV) outbreak in accordance with statutory requirements and recommended procedures.”“We owe it to the 20 people who died and the more than 500 who contracted Hepatitis A to learn exactly what went wrong and what could have been done better,” said Assemblymember Todd Gloria. “It is my hope this audit will help us better understand how the City and County managed the Hepatitis A outbreak and ultimately make certain our region is sufficiently prepared to handle any future public health crisis that may arise.”According to the letter, the hepatitis A outbreak started in March of 2017. In September of 2017, county health officials declared a public health emergency.The county ended the public health emergency declaration in January of 2018.Assemblymember Gloria’s request for an audit will be heard by the committee on May 16.A spokesperson for San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer responded with the following statement on the request for an audit: 1346

SAN DIEGO (KGTV)— In the wake of two serious e-scooter accidents over the weekend, San Diego city leaders are working to update e-scooter regulations. While the scooters are off-limits on all city sidewalks, they are allowed on beach boardwalks. While some believe they are instrumental in freeing up car traffic and parking, others believe scooters just bring the congestion straight onto the boardwalks.Chase McKenna enjoys riding e-scooters at Pacific Beach. He says it is the best way to enjoy the boardwalk."Cruise around the strip right here and that's fun,” McKenna said. “They're convenient because down here, they're everywhere."But what is fun and convenient for McKenna, is a total nightmare for Paul Thackery."PB's great. The scooters are out of control,” Thackery said. He says some areas along the boardwalk are beginning to look like a scooter graveyard. He has also been hit by several intoxicated scooterists in the last several months. "I can't stand them. I ride my bike down here every day, and scooters are in the way, it's dangerous,” Thackery said. “I think they should get rid of them all together. "This weekend alone, at least two e-scooterists in San Diego were sent to the hospital for severe injuries. San Diego Police said a 39-year-old man fell off a scooter just before 10 pm Saturday in Mission Beach. He suffered life-threatening head injuries. Then at 12:30 am Sunday, just a mile away, a 62-year-old man lost control of his scooter, and crashed into a sidewalk. He suffered a neck fracture and facial abrasions.Since February 2018, two people in San Diego County have even died in scooter crashes. The city of San Diego is now defending against four e-scooter lawsuits that claim the city needed to enforce stronger regulations to prevent collisions and accidents.But in a crowded place like a boardwalk, McKenna says scooters are not the only issue."A person on their bicycle can be just as inconsiderate,” McKenna said. That is why McKenna says it is vital that each rider regulates themselves. We met Tracy Grimmett, a visitor from Modesto, doing a few practice laps before taking off for the first time. “Yes, without running into all the people around here. Yes, trying!” she laughed. She hopes to have fun while being considerate, as they share the busy boardwalk with thousands of weekenders."Be courteous around people, go slow,” McKenna said. “If there's a lot of people, you have to slow down, and you have to give other people the right of way."The city of San Diego is now considering making companies install “geo-fencing” on the scooters. That would automatically slow down the maximum speed of the scooters to 8mph in designated zones, including Mission Beach and Pacific Beach boardwalks. 2750
