you don't direct deposit will be delivered nearly sent out starting tomorrow and here's what you need to know a person who's making up to 75,000 a year in 2019. automatically be qualified to get the $600 check married couples making up to a 150,000. we'll get $1200 to $600 payments and each qualifying child in a family will get $600 as well. people with that direct deposit already on file. we'll get paid that way the irs if they have your info anybody doesn't get a direct deposit by early january should watch their mail for a paper check or a debit card. and later this week people will be able to check the status of their payments on the irs website. we have a link to that on our website kron 4 dot com. well the money is welcome sight for so many families struggling to get by many say it's just not enough. >>president trump congressional democrats along with a handful of republicans are still pushing for those

payments to get bumped up and increased to $2000 but as our joe khalil reports for us tonight. the odds of that happening appear slim. >>it's now increasingly unlikely that americans will get a $2000 stimulus check despite growing support for them in congress donald trump says he wants to $2000 check my belief is that if we have this pope. >>on the floor of the united states senate it will. >>pass but the vote senators like democrat ed markey will likely take won't beyond just a bigger check late tuesday evening senator mitch mcconnell introduced an entirely new $2000 stimulus check bill which would also create a commission to study voter fraud and repeal section 2.30 a law that shields social media companies from some lawsuits, those 3 important subjects the president has linked together. >>this morning. senate will begin a process to bring these 3 priorities and catch those 3 priorities together don't pass the house or become law

according to democrat senate leader chuck schumer who says quote any move like this by senator mcconnell would be a blatant attempt to deprive americans of a $2000 survival check. i hope that doesn't happen. senator bernie sanders tells newsnation most americans want a $2000 stimulus check and he says the way to pass it is to vote up or down on bigger checks. no add-ons look the house passed the clean bill that's what the american people i want us to do not to putting poison pills not to muddy the water mcconnell's new bill comes after president trump joined democrats in putting pressure on republicans in congress and it seemed to work a handful of republican senators recently expressed support for $2000 checks, including georgia senators david perdue and kelly loeffler both in races to keep their senate seats as well as nebraska senator deb fischer florida senator marco rubio and missouri senator josh hawley in washington, i'm joe khaleel. >>happening tomorrow more relief is also coming for

something back so long words under the program businesses can receive anywhere from 5,000 to $25,000, small businesses and nonprofits or knowledgeable if their businesses bring in less than 2.5 million dollars of revenues and have been open since june 2019 and have a clear reopening plan when the pandemic ends. >>the money can be used for employee expenses, including payroll and health care paying off any debt, including rent payments in utilities and also upgrading facilities with personal protective equipment. alternate. >>just do everything and so you know and see what what helps her mom says that he understands the current climate but wishes leaders could do more to help out owners like him. >>who are also at risk of feeling the impacts of the virus you know what's going on you know ice you hospitals are filling up the fire still score strong unfortunately. so it's hard to see that. but site our businesses are a lot of people that's our lives to

further notice those regions here the southern california region and the san joaquin valley, the central valley as you can see no icu capacity available in those 2 regions here in the bay area we are doing better even a little bit better than yesterday roughly 10 and a half percent of icu beds are available still well below that magic 15% number though doctor galley could confirmed and clarified that being at 0% icu capacity means that the region is already using. it's surge capacity. >>so one hospital one community one part of county want a whole county may actually be. only all of their hospitals in surge capacity while other parts of the region still have capacity so the point of a regional approach is to make sure that we take care as many californians with those such as possible and this is what we're doing in southern california and the san joaquin

about. >>doctor golly says that this time when you project out for weeks from now he doesn't see any improvement in covid-19 hospitalizations in the state. as a reminder the stay home order is in effect for a minimum of 3 weeks once a region's icu capacity drops below 15%. the state health department is also monitoring another 31,000 new coronavirus cases and 242 new deaths, california is now approaching 2 and a half or 2.2 million confirmed cases and has confirmed more than 24,000 deaths so far due to covid in national news tonight vice president elect kamala harris is the latest elected official to receive the. >>coronavirus vaccine. she got the dose at united medical center in washington d c afterwards she took a moment to emphasize just how important it is that everybody get this shot. president elect joe biden received his vaccine

earlier in the month. biden criticizing the trump administration and operation warp speed after it was reported that the program is falling far short of its goals for distributing the vaccine. speaking from his transition headquarters in delaware. biden also says that the months ahead will be some of the toughest of the pandemic. >>we'll find ways to boost the pace to vaccinations. but as doctor fauci and others have stated. these past few days. this will take more time than anyone would like and more time then the promises from the trump administration have suggested. this is going to be the greatest operational challenge we've ever faced as a nation. we're going to get it done. it's going to take a effort. it's not yet under way. >>earlier this month white house officials said that they plan to have 20 million doses distributed by the end of the year. according to data provided by the cdc just over

11 million doses have been distributed and only 2 million people have received their first dose. now to a developing story that new more contagious covid-19 feria has been detected for the first time. >>here in the u.s. the governor of colorado today confirming the infection in his state. health officials say the infected individual is a man in his 20's who has no recent travel history yeah, the variant is the same one that's been rapidly circulating across the uk and it's been detected. >>it least 17 other countries so far health experts had previously speculated it was really only a matter of time before we detected that strain right here in the u.s. joining us now one of the experts in our arsenal, doctor peter, chin-hong an infectious disease expert has ucsf doctor chan hon, thank you so much for staying up late with to what extent are you concerned with this new mutation and when do you think we'll know for sure whether or not the

current vaccines work against it. >>me i'm grant and vicki. overall i'm not too concerned i think that this variant was identified as early as september and southeast send england. and it is probably associated with increased transmission. but there's also good news, the good news is it's not associated with more severe disease. likely that the current vaccines will work. you know all regular protection like masks still work regarding the any vaccine companies are specifically testing this train against but it takes years the vaccine. variance to really develop into different strain, so that the vaccines, one work as we understand it and that's because we've all. a repertoire of antibodies to

odds each of the spike protein somebody trying to develop antibodies against on the surface of the of the sars covid 2 virus. so that you know in terms of vaccine. efficacy i'm not too worried in terms of you know it's spreading widely it's on the is already here some people think leah's surges really do you tip possibly an problems of a variance. >>yeah doctor brief courson ver allah geo one oh one. but it these viruses are constantly morphing that's right that's nature of the beast. so we were thinking we were trying so hard to stop flights coming in from the uk when in fact either it was already here or is there a chance that you know it's doing its own thing. without having any exposure to you know folks in other countries. >>i don't think it's doing its own thing i mean it's always

done something purse and like you said the key. the virus is very imprecise when it makes copies of itself in fact that's part of the game of viruses. >>particularly rna viruses like this when it makes a copy doesn't make an exact copy all the time and some of these different variance can the hive different superpower but you know it is the goal of the virus to see. i'm survive and thrive. so that the fact that it's not killing more people in this particular variant is interesting in itself, but you're right the skynest 20's and colorado. he hadn't traveled to england and it's likely that it's been here all along the only testified 0, 0, 3%, of our area of awe viruses in the genomic analysis so you know people who only started doing a little bit more testing now. so it probably is already here because there's so much travel between the u k and the u.s. even in covid

times have you had the shot. i haven't had the shot yet because you know it's going to be random it's still around in process and 9,000 people in my group holding out for that grants. what do you think the next time you talk to i'll have it already yeah, i know you're going to sleeve up whenever you're your name is called what do you make of the in not only getting. >>the vaccines to the different states but also once they're they're actually getting them in people's arms and and now there's blame game between you know the the incoming administration, the current administration and all these governors and mayors who are having to answer questions from their constituents. >>no i feel very disappointed in the rollout personally. you know development of the

vaccines is just part of the story as you allude to distribution and the infrastructure get into arms of people as another is you all together and you know the asked for 9 billion dollars 8 to 9 billion dollars to help with distribution and the only got 340 million dollars so it's vastly underfunded for the job that we have to do and hopefully with a new administration they will invest some more in the actual distribution of the vaccine, not just i mean the vaccine available. >>yeah, i mean just the idea that we have to you know we rely on cbs and walgreens to you know to get it out to folks my producers say that we need to wrap here, but i do have to ask you you know for those of us who then collecting you know cases of the lysol wipes news came out today that perhaps we really don't need to be you know swabbing the daca you know, i've cleaning things is for studiously is as we were told to initially. there that's some good news right.

>>yeah, it's great news and to you know intensive not having to worry body of groceries cleaning iphone every 10 seconds that's why i think the message is really simple, you know why a mosque try to stay as far away as from somebody is possible. and think about the ventilation so instead of you know thinking and obsessing over services, although it is something we can do. these other simple interventions can probably have more bang for the buck. >>that's doctor, peter chin-hong our we love being with you thank you so much for staying up late with us providing your expertise once again always feel a little bit light on what you guys have a good night. you into a lie. all right our covid coverage continues saw always on our website kron 4 dot com there you can find the latest info about this new covid strain the different vaccines as well and the struggles to get them to people just look for the

to start the season tonight. it was a date with the detroit pistons a win would make them to into which most would consider when considering this is a squad that is still very much getting used to playing with one another steph curry trying to build on his 36 point night the other night in chicago and he did just that he had a huge game but this shot here was noteworthy for kelly to break. he was over 17 heading into this game on three's cali stuffed the stat sheet tonight, 14 points 5 rebounds 2 steals 2 blocks they'll need more of that out of him as the season. progresses 2nd quarter james wiseman looking like a young chris bosh here the warriors really love this kid you'll see why later in the game. but the story of tonight's game with andrew wiggins big time dunk in transition warriors back within 3 points at the half 3rd quarter. they're used to seeing this run staff 4 years go up by 2. now some

good defense he's even better off and steph curry finds want escotto anderson what the rivers 17 3 run for the dogs they're up 9 at that point but only women to the 4th quarter up by a point they could 4th quarter now dare growth turning back the clock a bit he scored 8 quick points to give detroit a three-point lead. but check out this sequence from wiseman this is a reason why the words are so enamored by him he gets the block. leave the break himself and finishes with dunk. you can't see many young 19 year-old is doing that now back to the start tonight, weekend sales, the stepback 3 warriors take a 10 point lead we've had 17 of his 27 in the 4th 5 for 8 from the 3 and they're steph curry with the shot boy. he had 31 points warriors up 13, but detroit got back to within 5, but no worries there's damion lee
