COPING WITH THIS CRISIS

How Local Police Are Making Arrests, Handling Stress In The Coronavirus Era

By Claire Trageser

Left: Chula Vista police officers Victor Del Rio and Javier Castillo talk on a department video, April 9, 2020.

Police officers are trained to anticipate all manner of scenarios when they are on the street and have to make arrests.

But arresting while social distancing? That’s a new one.

Victor Del Rio, an officer with the Chula Vista Police Department, described an arrest he was involved in last week.

Spraying alcohol or chlorine

Facts and Fiction about COVID 19

Spraying alcohol or chlorine all over your body will not kill viruses that have already entered your body. Spraying such substances can be harmful to clothes or mucous membranes (i.e. eyes, mouth). Be aware that both alcohol and chlorine can be useful to disinfect surfaces, but they need to be used under appropriate recommendations.

Older or are younger people

People of all ages can be infected by the new coronavirus (2019-nCoV). Older people, and people with pre-existing medical conditions 5G mobile networks DO NOT spread COVID-19 Most of the people who catch COVID-19 can (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) appear recover and eliminate the virus from their bodies. to be more vulnerable to becoming severely ill Viruses cannot travel on radio waves/mobile If you catch the disease, make sure you treat your with the virus. networks.

Countries with hot weather have reported cases of COVID-19. To protect yourself, make sure you clean your hands frequently and thoroughly and avoid touching your eyes, mouth, and nose.

Catching the new coronavirus DOES NOT mean you will have it for life.

How effective are thermal scanners Thermal scanners are effective in detecting people who have developed a fever (i.e. have a higher than normal body temperature) because of infection with the new coronavirus. However, they cannot detect people who are infected but are not yet sick with fever. This is because it takes between 2 and 10 days before people who are infected become sick and develop a fever.

bacteria. The new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a virus and, therefore, antibiotics should not be used as a means of prevention or treatment.

However, if you are hospitalized for the 2019nCoV, you may receive antibiotics because bacterial co-infection is possible.

“He’s running away from us and we had to catch up to him, make contact with him and place him under arrest and handcuff him,” Del Rio said. “Obviously we are practicing our social distancing.

We stay six feet from him and when we determine a crime has occurred, it’s time to conduct our business and I’ll tell him to please put his hands behind his back.Police everywhere are seeing their jobs change in the coronavirus era— they’re enforcing stay at home orders and keeping the peace at food banks and grocery stores. And they are, as Del Rio describes, social distancing when they can and also wearing masks and gloves at all times.

But an arrest is still an arrest and they have to come in close contact with people to do their jobs. It’s a new level of danger, with the slightest touch meaning they could get sick. The threat of the virus is ever present, said Del Rio’s partner, Officer Javier Castillo.

“It always constantly crosses our mind, especially the most concerning part is contracting it, taking it to my family,” Castillo said.

A New Approach Phil Stinson, a former police officer who studies policing and criminal justice at Bowling Green State University, said he’s already seeing a change in the approach departments are taking.

“In other words, police officers are responding to calls for service, they’re responding to 911 calls, but they’re not being as aggressive in terms of proactive traffic enforcement and other types of activities,” he said.

In March, arrests in Chula Vista were down by almost 50% from March of 2019.

There were 343 in Chula Vista last month, and 508 in March 2019.

Joe Burrow goes No. 1 to Bengals A year ago, chances seemed good Joe Burrow would get drafted this week He looked like a good college player for LSU and a mid- to-late-round NFL pick. Nothing wrong with that. Joe Burrow is still the Tiger King.

Normally, Goodell would have handed Burrow a personalized orange-and-black jersey and the two would have shaken hands on a stage — which, this year, was supposed to be the iconic water fountains outside the Bellagio in Las Vegas.

But this is the draft in the coronavirus era, where stay-at-home orders and social distancing practices forced the entire three-day event into virtual space. A moment of silence kicked off the draft, as images of emotional people in masks, the Statue of Liberty and American flag flashed across the screen. Harry Connick Jr. sang the national anthem and a virtual chatroom of fans, including Michael Strahan, booed Goodell to keep tradition Burrow’s remarkable eight-month rise from alive.

Lana Turner Lana Turner was an American actress who worked in film, television, theater and radio. Over the course of her nearly 50-year career, she achieved fame as both a pin-up model and a dramatic actress, as well as for her highly publicized personal life. Lana had an acting ability that belied the “Sweater Girl” image MGM thrust upon her, and even many of her directors admitted that they knew she was capable of greatness.Unfortunately, her private life sometimes overshadowed her professional accomplishments.

Her daughter by Crane, Cheryl Crane, fatally stabbed Lana’s boyfriend, gangster Johnny Stompanato, in 1958. It was a case that would have rivaled the O.J. Simpson murder case. Cheryl was acquitted of the murder charge,

The ‘King of Hollywood’ Clark Gable

Clark Gable was an American film actor, often referred to as “The King of Hollywood”.

He had roles in more than 60 motion pictures in a wide variety of genres in a career that lasted 37 years, three decades of which was as a leading man.

Kirk Douglas ... Sparticus Kirk Douglas, one of the last surviving movie stars from Hollywood’s golden age, whose rugged good looks and muscular intensity made him a commanding presence in celebrated films like “Lust for Life,” “Spartacus” and “Paths of Glory,” died this year,, He was 103.In his heyday Mr. Douglas appeared in as many as three movies a year, often delivering critically acclaimed performances. In his first 11 years of film acting, he was nominated three times for the Academy Award for best actor.

He was known for manly roles, in westerns, war movies and Roman-era spectacles, most notably “Spartacus” (1960). But in 80 movies across a halfcentury he was equally at home on mean city streets, in smoky jazz clubs and, as Vincent van Gogh, amid the flowers of Arles in the south of France.

Laughs BLONDE AND REDHEAD

A blonde and a redhead have a ranch. They have just lost their bull.

The women need to buy another, but only have $500.

The redhead tells the blonde, “I will go to the market and see if I can find one for under that amount. If I can, I will send you a telegram.”

She goes to the market and finds one for $499. Having only one dollar left, she goes to the telegraph office and finds out that it costs one dollar per word. She is stumped on how to tell the blonde to bring the truck and trailer Finally, she tells the telegraph operator to send the word “comfortable.” Skeptical, the operator asks, “How will she know to come with the trailer from just that word?” The redhead replies, “She’s a blonde so she reads slow: ‘Come for ta bull.’”

A BRIDE

After the second time, the bride says, “Honey, the prisoner is out again!” The husband rises to the occasion and they made love again.

The bride again says, “Honey, the prisoner escaped again,” to which the husband yelled, “Hey, it’s not a life sentence!!!”

A CHILD ASKED HIS FATHER A child asked his father, “How were people born?” So his father said, “Adam and Eve made babies, then their babies became adults and made babies, and so on.”

The child then went to his mother, asked her the same question and she told him, “We were monkeys then we evolved to become like we are now.”

The child ran back to his father and said, “You lied to me!” His father replied, “No, your mom was talking about her side of the family.”

THREESOME

My girlfriend asked me if I could have a threesome, which of her friends I would choose.

Apparently, I was only supposed to name one, not two.

MACHO MAN A typical macho man married a typical good looking lady, and after the wedding, he laid down the following rules. “I’ll be home when I want, if I want, what time I want, and I don’t expect any hassle from you. I expect a great dinner to be on the table, unless I tell you that I won’t be home for dinner. I’ll go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card playing when I want with my old buddies, and don’t you give me a hard time about it. Those are my rules. Any comments?”

His new bride said, “No, that’s fine with me. Just understand that

there will be sex here at seven o’clock every night, whether you’re here or not.”

JOB INTERVIEW Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Officer asks a young engineer fresh out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, “And what starting salary are you looking for?”

The engineer replies, “In the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package.” The interviewer inquires, “Well, what would you say to a package of five weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years, say, a red Corvette?”

The engineer sits up straight and says, “Wow! Are you kidding?” The interviewer replies, “Yeah, but you started it.”

FEELING YOUNG A fortyish woman was naked and jumping up and down on her bed, laughing and singing.

Her husband walks into the bedroom and sees her. He watches her for a while and says “You look ridiculous! What on earth are you doing?”

A bride tells her husband, “Honey, you know I’m a virgin and I don’t know anything about sex. Can you explain it to me first?” “Okay, sweetheart. Putting it simply, we will call your private place ‘the prison’ and call my private thing ‘the prisoner’. So what we do is put the prisoner in the prison.”

“I just had my checkup and the doctor says I have the breasts of an 18 year old.”

She starts laughing and jumping again.

And they made love for the first time and the husband was smiling with satisfaction. Nudging him, his bride giggles, “Honey the prisoner
