While some Donald Trump's second presidency characterize one with “lack of occupancy”, the residents of California gathered together this week to protest against the government's commitments. Demonstrators gathered in State Capitol on Wednesday to oppose Trump and Tech Mogul Elon Mousk.

Thousands in all of California protested against Trump's immigration policy at the beginning of this week and blocked motorway traffic in Los Angeles and San Diego. Temporarily close companies in Napa to observe “a day without immigrants”; Output of the school classes in Fresno; And march over College Campus.

“I want to use my voice to enable those who are afraid,” said a Bay Area from KQED. “Trump creates divisions and hate, and that's not a good leader.”

On Wednesday, as part of a nationwide campaign, in order to protest in every state captain in the past few weeks with little or no one.

This is not the first time that some Californians have denounced the Tesla CEO, but Musk (supported by technology engineers with California bonds) has the recent exam in order to receive access to a handful of federal authorities, including sensitive data from the US financial department.

“It is our democracy,” said a demonstrator of the Sacramento Bee. “I am in social security. That's serious. “

Take a look at scenes from a few protests that are recorded by Miguel Gutierrez Jr., JW Hendricks, from Calmatters, Miguel Gutierrez Jr.

What's wrong with the bird flu?

I am so happy that you asked. The state's emergency dashboard has not been updated since January 15 to reflect new cases. That's good. Of course, the crisis is not limited to California: Nevada has to deal with a version of the bird flu that affected the cattle (this is bad). As a former scientist of Los Angeles Times described, the situation is “really a SH-show that unfolds in a nightmare scenario”.

The persistent crisis means that egg prices have increased further.

An expert in infectious diseases – in an interview with UC Berkeley Public Health about bird flu – said that California has a “very proactive” Ministry of Health, which is good, especially since the centers are fighting for the control of diseases and prevention with the interference of the federal government. However, some supporters of the employees argue that the state should do more to protect agricultural workers.

A consistent chorus of experts when asked about the bird flu: Do not drink raw milk.

Only a covid regulation remains

Speaking of infectious diseases, the majority of the remaining rules of Cal/Osha for employers in relation to the protection of COVID-19 ran at the beginning of this week. In these rules, employers had to ban employees with Covid-19 to temporarily return to work. Note other employees if an employee has been tested positively. And have tests for employees who came into contact with exposed colleagues.

The end of these regulations has followed almost two years since the state has ended its three -year emergency contract, which made it possible Governor Gavin Newsom to spend comprehensive, sometimes controversial mandates. These guidelines tried to slow down the spread of a virus that killed more than 100,000 Californians.

However, one rule remains until next year: employers must follow Covid 19 cases, including the name of the employee, where they have worked, and have to follow the date of their positive test and for two years.

And finally: reconstruction according to the Eaton fire
