Gov. Newsom heckled during COVID-19 briefing in Fresno

Gov. Gavin Newsom was met by chants to be recalled during a press conference in Fresno on Wednesday.

While the governor was providing a COVID-19 vaccination update in the Central Valley, a crowd could be heard chanting "Recall Newsom."

When asked to comment on the protesters and recall effort, Newsom instead discussed his focus on businesses and safely reopening the economy.

“I don’t care that you’re Democrat or Republican — I care that you’re healthy and safe and you can live your lives out loud without fear of a pandemic and without fear of having to go back to the fits and starts this pandemic has impacted in terms of communities all across this state. So, that’s my focus," he said.

They want you DIVIDED!

They call us names.

They make threats.

They censor.

They lie.

They project.

They cheat.

They steal.

They harm.

They are sick.

They are evil.

At some point the streets (for them) will not be safe.

South African COVID-19 variant found in California, Gov. Newsom says

FRESNO, Calif. —

Two cases of a COVID-19 variant first discovered in South Africa have been detected in California, Gov. Gavin Newsom said on Wednesday.

The cases were detected in Alameda and Santa Clara counties, Newsom said while speaking in Fresno County.

"The issue of mutations is top of mind," Newsom said from the site of The Big Fresno Fair.

Over the weekend, health officials in South Africa announced a temporary hold on the rollout of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine after a study suggested it offered "minimal protection" against mild-to-moderate COVID-19 due to the variant, the University of Oxford said.

That yet-unpublished study included a relatively small number of people who were young and healthy on the whole. It was not able to measure how effective the vaccine was against severe disease, hospitalization or death.

Newsom also said Wednesday that there were also 159 cases of the U.K. variant detected in the state and 1,203 cases of the two known West Coast variants. Overall, 30 labs across the state have done genomic sequencing on 12,000 samples, he said.

Some hecklers could be heard during a livestream of Newsom's briefing yelling "recall Gavin." It was unclear how many were protesting the governor.

Meanwhile, Newsom said he did not yet have a date to announce a new mass vaccination site in California's Central Valley.

Thousands sign petition by Chico State student to either lower tuition or reopen campus

CHICO, Calif. — Following the announcement that roughly a quarter of classes at Chico State will be completely or partly in-person during the Fall 2021 semester, a student petition is demanding the university either lower tuition while continuing a primarily virtual format or reopen the campus to students who choose to return.

The petition, receiving more than 3,500 signatures by Wednesday evening, was created by Chico State sophomore Zoe Kunhart. After experiencing both in-person instruction pre-pandemic and virtual instruction in 2020, she believes this academic year's online education pales in comparison.

"I feel like there's been an injustice to the students of the University," says Kunhart. "We're not getting the same level of education and we're still paying the same price."

Kunhart's petition states that 16,000 students were forced to pay full tuition throughout the pandemic even as certain campus resources were unavailable. While the cost of tuition includes access to the Wildcat Recreation Center, library, and other on-campus services, they were inaccessible for an extended period of time, if not still closed.

Surrounding schools, like nearby Chico High School, have adopted in-person learning models of instruction that aim to keep students safe while still contributing to a 'normal' school experience. Kunhart and other students dare to ask university officials: if others can reopen safely, why can't Chico State?

"It's really hard for me to believe that a public high school where students don't pay tuition can figure out how to do in-person classes but our California State institution that we pay $14,000 a year for can't figure out how to do in-person classes," says Kunhart.

The University tells KRCR that they are aware of the petition.

In response and echoing President Gayle Hutchinson's recent letter to the campus community, Chico State says many of their classrooms are too small and unable to accommodate full cohorts of students with proper social distancing. This led to current plans of bringing back only 20-30% of classes onto campus in Fall 2021, which they say is in accordance with federal, state and local public health guidelines.
