Salon and hairstylists demand essential service status to reopen their businesses in California
Many small businesses had been affected due to Stay-at-home orders, and salons are one hardest hit. It was deemed "non-essential," many were forced to close salons even after having some of the most strict regulations of sanitization and cleanliness.
Now there are many petitions filed in California, and the nation, asking hairstyling should be deemed as an essential service, so they can reopen their business while following all the cleanliness and safety norms.
Corina Garcia, the owner of the Style Lounge in Pasadena, said, "We can take precaution and take one client at a time. So that we can get people feeling good about themselves, creating that energy again back in the world."
Chris Bair, the owner of Shorty's Barbershop in West Hollywood, said, "We do have a very high standard of cleaning and disinfecting after every client."
According to the petition, all the salons and barbershops will follow all the recommendations put forth by the state, including face mask and gloves worn all the time and one client at a time with breaks for sanitization between two clients.
"We take one client at a time and in between clients allowing 15-20 minutes of just sanitizing," said Garcia. "I take this very seriously... I want to be able to open my doors so I can get my rent covered because eventually this is all going to go away and I still want to keep my business."
Torrance man suspected for stealing medication
Christopher Mencia, aged 36, is being suspected of stealing thousands of dollars worth of a controversial medication that has been touted for possible treatment for COVID-19. Christopher Mencias is accused of taking more than 700 tablets of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, which is valued at $6700. President Donald Trump has touted these two medications have proven to be an effective treatment of COVID-19, but results so far are inconclusive.
There is a group of people who have improved because of drugs. However, there is not sufficient evidence that can describe the two drugs as a possible treatment. One of the studies has even reported that a higher death rate was recorded among the group of people who were treated with these two drugs.
It was reported by the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office that Agustin had stolen the tablets twice from the hospital on different occasions. Hospitals have tightened their attention to the monitoring of this medication so that any further missing of the drugs could be avoided. An official from the hospital said that an inventory noticed the missing quantity of the drugs and notified the hospital authorities. On investigating the incident, Agustin has been arrested on March 31 for grand theft. He has now been held instead of $100,000 bail. If convicted, he can face four years and a four-month jail sentence.
Delivery drivers also playing an important role in the state
Due to health guidelines against COVID-19 people are maintaining social distancing. This has lead to work from and attending lectures online; therefore, in the current scenario, the work of the delivery driver is becoming very crucial.
UPS delivery driver Steven Lopez said that he is working about 11-12 hours every day with his gloves and mask on so that he does not get infected. He said that the current period for him and his fellow delivery driver is hectic, probably same as that at the time of Christmas however, he added that he is very proud of himself for serving the residents of California by the necessities.
UPS is ensuring the safety of its delivery driver by providing them with all the protective equipment. In the middle of the pandemic Amazon, FedEx and the United States Postal Service have reported increased demand.
Lopez said that he has observed that most of the packages which he has to deliver are care packages. These packages are mostly for elderly people, and often there is a note on these packages such as ‘‘take care grandma, take care auntie,’’
Lopez thinks that although he is not a healthcare worker or first responder, he has a very crucial role to play. He also said that he was used to thanking the police forces, but now it’s the other way around.

And immediately that would send one of our volunteers up to their home and get their animal, or however they needed our help in any way," said Shira Scott, founder of ARM. Scott, who started ARM in 2018, says that many people are reaching out to her to take care of their pets. "It's scary if you get sick right now and all of a sudden you have to leave and you know, people don't have backup plans or, you know, a lot of people in LA they don't have a family.
"I get texts about 50 times a day from people, checking in today to see if, 'You have a dog I could foster,'" Scott continued. Initially, it was only for the people suffering from the disease, but now they extending services to those on the frontline also.

Nurses protest at the university of Chicago medical center
Due to unsafe work condition a group of nurses were found protesting outside the university of Chicago medical center on Thursday. ICU nurse Cassandra Callaway from university of Chicago said that they are physically and mentally exhausted. She further explained about the challenges health care worker have to face against COVID-19 and how 30 of her fellow nurses have already been infected due to the virus. She further said that because of the limited personal protective equipment, bathroom and water breaks are limited. She also claimed that many of her fellow nurses are thrown into the situation with only minimal preparation. The group with National Nurses United is in talks with the medical center's chief nursing officers to get their reserves nurses trained properly. However, all efforts till now have been wasted as the nurses have received no response. In response to the health care workers the university of Chicago medical center said that UCMC amid the pandemic has already guaranteed wages and benefits for every employee even if they are not having any work to do.
Callaway said that the nurses are dealing with something they have not experienced yet. The patients are highly unpredictable and unstable.
Republicans blame economic breakdown on Democratic Governors
As the economy and health both are going through a massive crisis, Republicans across the states are trying to lay the blame for the economic breakdown on Democratic governors, ramping up a strategy for the presidential elections. Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania — are all laid by Democratic governors. The Republican lawmakers of the state are blaming the actions of stay-at-home orders or business shutdowns as the work of overzealous, nanny-state Democrats. In Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, the GOP legislature is trying to strip the democratic governors of power so that they can impose restrictions on businesses.
The stay-at-home order was passed by both the Republican and Democratic governors, amide the advice from the state and federal health officials and guidance from President Trump. But the clash is occurring as many Republican governors are easing the orders and reopening the businesses to boost the economy, led by Trump. Republicans are trying to position themselves as defenders of the economy, even if they have to risk the health of the public. The hard-line messages are marked as the arrival of a contentious phase as the political fight over who to blame for the economic fall, and this could even be a political disaster for Republicans if the job does not return by November and Trump will be blamed for unemployment.

30 años después, Codesal sigue hablando de Maradona: "Como persona es de lo peor que conocí en mi vida" - RT en Español
El árbitro de la final del Mundial de Italia '90 también reconoció que pudo haber echado a Maradona antes de comenzar el partido entre Argentina y Alemania.
Diego Maradona podría haber sido expulsado antes del inicio de la final de la Copa Mundial de 1990, según comentó Edgardo Codesal en diálogo con el programa de radio 'Tirando Paredes': "Si yo hubiese aplicado el reglamento, debí haber expulsado antes del partido por el insulto que le hace a todo el estadio. Pero traté de calmarlo y de explicarle que estábamos ante una final del mundo. Es el mejor jugador del mundo y no lo quiso entender. Reglamentariamente lo pude haber echado." Recordemos que los italianos presentes en el estadio silbaron el himno argentino, dolidos por haber visto como Maradona los eliminaba en semifinales. El exárbitro, nacido en Uruguay y radicado en México, fue más allá y afirmó que, tras la expulsión de Pedro Monzón, el campeón del mundo de México '86 lo increpó: "Ya sabíamos que esto es un robo, la FIFA te mandó a que nos robaran el partido, para que no ganáramos". Codesal, al que todos recuerdan por el polémico penal que pitó en dicha final ganada por Alemania, durante la entrevista habló del Maradona futbolista: "Como jugador, todo mi respeto, toda mi admiración", y también se refirió al Maradona fuera de la cancha: "Como persona, se me hace una de las peores que he conocido en mi vida" En cuanto al penal que terminó en gol de Alemania, Codesal aseguró que hoy lo volvería a pitar: "El penal de Sensini no está en discusión. El jugador quiere jugar un balón que está a la derecha del atacante con su pierna derecha, lo cual es anatómicamente muy difícil. [...] Nunca llegó a tocar el balón".
