SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- A group of California lawmakers is asking for an emergency audit of the state's Employment Development Department (EDD).In a letter sent to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee, legislators claimed that EDD had failed Californians when it's needed most.The letter said, "EDD reported that it has processed 9.3 million unemployment insurance claims and distributed about billion in benefits. Yet some 1 to 1.2 million potentially eligible applicants, including those that filed in March, are still waiting on payments. EDD's actions or lack thereof have real consequences: people are depleting their life savings, going into debt, and are unable to pay rent and feed their families."For months, Californians have complained to lawmakers and news outlets saying EDD was struggling to get them money. Many described calling the department hundreds of times a day trying to speak with someone about a filed claim."I'm not going to be able to pay rent, and I'm not going to be able to pay my insurance," said San Diego County resident Jaedra Miller.Miller says she was receiving money from EDD, but after a few payments, something changed."They just flagged my account, and I've been trying to figure out why," she said. "I've been calling, and I completed the paperwork they sent me."Miller said there's an issue with the effective date on her claim. She told reporter Adam Racusin she believes the dispute caused the money to stop."It's just so incredibly frustrating," Miller said. "I've tried so many avenues, and I just, I really feel helpless."In the past six months, the Employment Development Department has taken a verbal beating from Californians and their lawmakers.During a May hearing, lawmakers told the head of EDD they're hearing from constituents who are struggling in the application process, being denied with no explanation, and having difficulty getting in touch with anyone at the department."We've never heard the type of suffering that people are experiencing right now, not just in regard to the pandemic, but when they call your bureaucracy," Assemblymember David Chiu said at the time. "The feedback we're getting is atrocious."Later that month, EDD said in a press release, "The Employment Development Department (EDD) will hire approximately 1,800 new temporary full-time and hourly staff over the next several weeks from throughout California to bolster the delivery of critical Unemployment Insurance (UI) services to workers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The workers will be trained in skills including call center operations, processing UI claims, and analyzing documents from claimants and employers to make wage determinations for benefits."EDD says that since March, the agency has redirected more than 600 staff from other units and 700 staff from other departments to assist the UI branch. The agency adds that it has been given approval to hire 5,500 new temporary employees, and that more than 5,200 employees have been approved for hire and more than 3,600 are in various stages of onboarding, training, and deployment.The state agency said it could not comment specifically on Miller's claim."Due to the legal confidentiality of Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimant information, we cannot discuss any details related to an individual’s case. Media Services does not have access to specific claimant information, nor the authority to share an individual’s claims details. As individual claims issues are often unique to each claimant, they are best mitigated by the UI analysts who are working the individual cases. We have added Ms. Miller to a claimant referral list that has been sent to our Unemployment Insurance branch, which handles benefits claims processing," a spokesperson said.In a press release on Aug. 27, the agency did say it has disbursed more than billion in benefit payments since March.The release stated, "EDD has processed over a total of 11.0 million claims for Unemployment Insurance (UI), Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA), and benefit claims extensions over that timeframe. The average amount of benefits paid daily by EDD over last week (4 million) was 967 percent higher than the daily average paid over the same week at the height of the Great Recession ( million) in 2010."The group of lawmakers calling for an audit ask that EDD, "Assess the reasons for backlogged unemployment insurance claims (claims) and the effectiveness of EDD's efforts and timeframes for eliminating the backlog. Evaluate the effectiveness of EDD's actions to improve call center performance and response time. This includes EDD's hiring, onboarding, and training efforts to increase call center staffing levels. Determine the magnitude of EDD's claims workload, including the number and percentage of claims that were approved, denied, pending, and backlogged since the beginning of the pandemic. Assess EDD's call center capacity and determine trends in the volume of call received, the time it takes EDD to respond to callers, the percentage of callers connected to a representative, and the number of calls during which the caller was disconnected from the call." 5161

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- County leaders and the American Red Cross are being forced to change fire evacuation plans due to coronavirus.According to a news release, residents under evacuation will now be housed at hotels or motels, or multiple shelters with less than 50 people instead of traditional shelters.The Red Cross says it’s working with nearly 100 lodging businesses to make rooms available during a crisis.“We’re entering the riskiest part of the wildfire season while still being in the middle of an unprecedented health crisis,” said county Supervisor Dianne Jacob. “That is forcing us to rethink and retool our disaster-planning efforts.”The County Office of Emergency Management is also asking people to include face coverings and hand sanitizer in their evacuation kits.“As we head into our warmer months, we need all resources available,” said County Supervisor Jim Desmond. “The question isn’t if, but when. We know fires are a part of living in San Diego, but putting in the preparation ahead of time is the best tactic we can use.”The Red Cross also says packaged meals will be provided instead of the usual cafeteria-style dining in light of the virus.“Disasters require flexibility and planning for a number of variables – especially in the COVID-19 environment,” says Sean Mahoney, Regional CEO of the American Red Cross Southern California Region. “As wildfire season approaches, the goal of the Red Cross remains to provide comfort and support to anyone in need after a disaster, and we are prepared to do just that.” 1545

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A company with offices in Oceanside released data Friday supporting its drug remdesivir is helping severely ill COVID-19 patients recover.The data released by Gilead, who produces remdesivir, states there was a 62% reduction in risk of death, compared to patients who weren't given the drug, and 74% of remdesivir treated patients recovered by Day 14.Remdesivir was originally created to fight Ebola, a similar virus to COVID-19.Troy Kahle was diagnosed with COVID-19 and said he's alive today because of Kaiser Permanente doctors, nurses and remdesivir.He said he was admitted to the hospital March 14, and ended up in a coma for 12 days."The first memory I have is waking up with my hands strapped to the gurney and a tube down my throat," Kahle said he thought he was going to die and wishes no one to face what still haunts him.Friday he celebrated three months out of the hospital as a survivor of COVID-19.While the drug has helped people like Kahle, medical experts are wary."It's not a magic bullet," Molecular Biology Professor at UC San Diego Stephen Hedrick, PhD. said.He said the drug slows down the virus."It's going to decrease the severity of the symptoms of the viral infection, but it doesn't necessarily make you well overnight," he said comparing it to an antibiotic.This is because while the drug works to stop the virus from replicating, COVID-19 can counter it, "Coronaviruses, almost uniquely among RNA viruses, have an error correction capability."Survivors like Kahle, while thankful to be out of the hospital, aren't back to 100%."I get easily winded if I overexert myself, occasionally I'll get dizzy for no reason, I have foot pain when I wake up," Kahle said.Hedrick said he is optimistic, adding the drug is a good jumping off point to create a drug more suited to coronavirus, or a vaccine.In the mean-time both Kahle and Hedrick ask that we all wear our masks."If we all work together we can get to the other side of this pandemic," Kahle said.Gilead said they are ramping up supplies, "we have increased supply nearly 40-fold since January and our goal is to produce more than 2 million treatment courses by year-end and several million in 2021, if required."Gilead cautions that rigorous clinical trials are needed to confirm the latest data. 2303

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A California lawmaker is planning to move forward on a housing bill that would eliminate hyper low-density zoning near transit and job centers.Senate Bill 50 aims to clear the way for apartment buildings and affordable housing in those locations so more people can live near transit and near where they work, proponents say.California State Senator Scott Wiener of San Francisco tells 10News, in January SB 50 will come back before the Senate, and he intends to move it forward.RELATED: Making it in San Diego: Zoning rules partially responsible for low housing supply, report says"California has a massive housing shortage – which threatens our economy, environment, and diversity – and state action is essential to solve this major problem," Wiener said in a statement.While they wait for action at the state level, some San Diego community groups are pushing for local lawmakers to move forward with their version, dubbed SD 50."We are still working in these neighborhoods to try and change those communities," said Ricardo Flores, executive director of the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) San Diego.Flores said the City of San Diego needs to end its single-family home zoning regulations. He said housing segregation in San Diego can be tied to the city's zoning policies.RELATED: City Council approves plan to ease San Diego parking regulations for more affordable housing"History shows us that it was created to discriminate against families in San Diego," Flores said. "That's really the crux of this story is that these laws were created to keep people apart, to divide black and white families so they did not live together in the same communities and they've been wildly successful."Flores and other local groups, including NAACP San Diego, Chicano Federation, Urban League of San Diego, and California YIMBY are asking city leaders to craft and pass a local version of Senate Bill 50.In October, the coalition took their initial pitch to members of the city's Land Use and Housing Committee, asking the city to ditch single-family zoning."The immediate benefit is we can see that people who have needs can move into communities where there are more opportunities, and we then reduce the concentration of poverty in communities that have been segregated," Flores said.RELATED: Making It in San Diego: County streamlines process to build granny flatsBut not everyone's sold on the idea coming out of Sacramento.10News spoke with San Diego City Council President Pro Tem Barbara Bry who is against Senate Bill 50. Bry represents District 1, which includes the communities of La Jolla, University City, and Carmel Valley."I'm against SB 50 because I'm against state efforts to control local land use planning," Bry said. "I believe San Diegans should be in control of what happens in our neighborhoods. Furthermore, SB 50 did nothing to guarantee that we would get one more unit of affordable housing."Bry said she's concerned about costs and meeting climate action plans goals, neither of which she found addressed in SB 50.RELATED: Making It In San Diego: Neighbors protest high density housing planBry told 10News she supports single-family zoning and believes if the city is going to bring down the cost of housing, it needs to build more housing in transit corridors."One of the major costs of housing is the fees," Bry said. "Fees are what pay for the infrastructure because of Prop 13. The state can pick up that cost of infrastructure. There was nothing in SB 50 to mandate that."If San Diego updated its zoning policies, it wouldn't be alone.City leaders in Minneapolis passed "Minneapolis 2040" which aims to increase affordable housing and racial disparities in housing.Ricardo Flores said he believes it's time for politicians to make San Diego more inclusive."If you own a single-family home on your lot and you want to keep that you should be allowed to keep it, but if you like me and are interested in building a couple extra units for mom and dad to move into or to rent it out to help pay for a mortgage you should be allowed to do that," Flores said.In a statement to 10News, San Diego City Council member and Land Use and Housing Committee member Scott Sherman wrote, "A recent study noted that 47 percent of housing costs are due to government red tape and regulation. Since taking office, I have worked to reform land use codes and streamline the permitting process to make homebuilding less expensive. I appreciate the efforts of SD50 and look forward to diving into the details of their proposal." 4568
