Over 1,500 cars rolled through the toy and food distribution, in total serving an estimated 3,000 members of the Rialto community and beyond. Toy Drive Young Visionaries, IEHP, Feeding America, Hyperwave Studios, Famian Private Security, and Fusion CBD Products; none of this would be possible without you,” said Harris. The line for the distribution, which began at Harris’ alma mater Carter High School, wrapped around multiple streets, but the organization encountered much traffic success due to partnering with Rialto Police Department and Rialto Unified School District (RUSD) public safety to mitigate any traffic issues beforehand. “It’s important to get Rialto PD and RUSD involved, as we need to ensure our volunteers, organizers and recipients are safe,” Harris said. “I want to thank the two agencies for following through. I’m a young black man and it’s important and powerful for me to
successfully collaborate with the police department and school district.” Both NSG Impact and Sista’s Making a Difference allude to the fact that when working together, an even greater impact can be achieved. “Our goal in assisting this toy drive and any other community benefit is to show the public that we can all work together and make a bigger impact by doing so. This event has shown many community leaders, local business owners, and individuals the power of collaboration and the impact that we can bring to our community when working together in a positive way, with the same goal,” said Ronecia Miller, Sista’s Making a Difference Founder & CEO. “It takes a community to take care of a community,” concluded Miller.
The community was definitely well taken care of at the event, as over 3,000 people rolled through the drive through event. “This distribution was heartwarming…from the kids asking to meet the boxer (which is me), to mothers saying our contributions will make their Christmas much better than expected, to the endless ‘thank you’s’ we received from parents and children alike. I want to encourage and inspire others to give back to their cities…there is definitely a need in Rialto, please help,” concluded Harris. NSG Impact’s next community benefit, a vision and dental screening, will be held on Saturday, February 20; registration begins the week of December 28th at https://neverstopgrindingimpact.com.

Fr ontline healthcar e wor ker s fir st to r eceive Pfizer vaccine The County has established the SB County Vaccination Task Force and produced a COVID-19 Standard Operating Guide to ensure our ability to distribute the vaccine as efficiently and effectively as possible. The guide largely follows guidelines established by the CDC, the California Department of Public Health and the County Department of Public Health.
not already included, and Phase 4 includes everyone not already inoculated. “We have a plan in place, and we will move quickly to protect our most at-risk and vulnerable residents,” said Board of Supervisor Chairman Curt Hagman. “That includes making sure we handle and store the vaccine properly,” he added, noting that the Pfizer vaccine must be stored at -80 degree Celsius (-120 Fahrenheit), requir-
ing special facilities and materials like dry ice (frozen CO2). “We still face challenges from this virus, and will continue dealing with infections and illness for several weeks and even months. However, this is a crucial development that gives us hope for the future, and we will work tirelessly to ensure every county resident has a chance to get vaccinated at the earliest possible date,” Hagman said.
San Bernardino County has launched a vaccine-specific information webpage that shares up-todate information where we are in the different phases of the vaccine distribution, as well as critical FAQs and other resource links.

rontline healthcare workers on Wednesday, Dec. 16, at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center today became the first people in the Inland Empire to be administered the first of two doses of the COVID19 vaccine from Pfizer-BioNTech. This morning, San Bernardino County received its first shipment of the vaccines, which are anticipated to be disbursed to 19 hospitals within the
county by the end of the day. Pfizer is shipping three million doses in this first wave, of which California is initially receiving 327,000 doses; 15,600 have arrived in San Bernardino County. Subsequent shipments of the vaccine are expected to continue arriving on a weekly basis, and a second vaccine from Moderna is only days away from FDA approval.
Because the initial batches of doses are being rationed, the vaccine is being initially administered to front-line healthcare personnel, followed by residents and staff of long-term care and skilled nursing facilities. First responders will also be among the first people in the county to receive the vaccine. In Phase 2, distribution of the vaccine will be expanded to include K-12 teachers and staff, childcare workers, critical workers in essential and high-risk industries, residents with comorbidity/underlying conditions, staff and residents of group facilities, and older adults not included in Phase 1. Phase 3 adds young adults, children and workers in industries and occupations

On the one hand, people must be encouraged to do the simple things that we know help mitigate the spread of the virus. Wearing masks, washing hands, and avoiding crowds or close contact with individuals are all ways in which we can help to keep the virus at bay and our families as safe as possible. Public health officials have a duty to continue reminding residents of the dangers and the need to stay vigilant, especially when it appears that some are becoming lax in taking precautions. At the same time, local, state, and federal leaders, whether politicians or public health officials, would do well to remember that what is being asked of the general population is not easy. People are, for the most part, doing the best they can. Yes, some are not taking the virus as seriously as maybe they should, but most are. Go to a local store, visit a restaurant, or just walk around town and you’ll see the vast majority of people wearing masks. Major events in people’s lives have been postponed or canceled. Jobs have been lost. Businesses have closed or are hanging on by a
So, a certain level of sympathy should be mixed with calls for renewed vigilance. Those resistant to such recommendations aren’t acting irrationally. They are expressing the obvious and understandable frustration at having to give up something important to them … a moment in time they may never get back. And we should never give in to the temptation to view a positive COVID-19 test as the sign of a person’s irresponsibility. It should not become the “scarlet letter” of our time, worn as some indication that a protocol was ignored or science was disbelieved. One can take all the recommended precautions and still get the virus. That’s the way the world in general and illness in particular work. We all need to be smart about our behavior and do what we can to stay safe. But our leaders should always remember that people are doing what they can under extraordinary circumstances, and that’s deserving of sympathy and understanding, not disappointment.

strange disease that originated in Wuhan, China. By March, we were locked down in our homes and have lived unprecedented disruptions of normal life since then. All along we have looked to science for a remedy—holding our breath behind our masks.
Finally, two COVID-19 vaccines are now being released. This is extremely good news. The virus that causes COVID-19 is an insidious little beast that has disrupted the entire world, and effective vaccines are welcome. In a cost-benefit analysis, vaccines offer tremendous blessings with relatively few drawbacks. But suddenly there’s a lot of hesitation about this thing we have looked to as our hope out of this mess. Some are reluctant to take the vaccine because of its development during a political administration they don’t like, and some are reluctant to take it because of its administration (to most of us) during a political administration they don’t like. And its stunning speed getting to us is concerning to many. I think we have acquired cultural amnesia about vaccines. I grew up not long after the Polio scares, and in my childhood heard horror stories about outbreaks that left many in iron lungs for the rest of their lives. The disease claimed paupers and presidents; even President Franklin Roosevelt was not exempt, his body permanently weakened and crippled after acquiring the disease as a young man. Decades ago, vaccines were not taken for granted, because we were close to the plagues that still tormented us. The Spanish Flu epidemic was a century ago, and during this holiday from history we have forgotten how desperately people desire to prevent or cure or just effectively treat disease, but there was no technological cure to assuage the suffering of a century ago. We in the 21st century have drunk from the river Lethe. We have forgotten why we had to develop all these vaccines, and why it was necessary to immunize. Smallpox was a disfiguring scourge that may have killed up to 10% of humanity before the advent of Jenner’s innoculation. COVID-19 is not so bad as that, but it is bad enough. There has never been a coronavirus vaccine
very contagious, and cases are rare, so it was not deemed necessary to develop vaccines for them. Four others cause some colds, but these are rarely dangerous, so developing a vaccine (or antiviral drugs) is a waste of effort when pharmaceutical expertise could be directed to more needful projects.
enabled us to figure out how to make fast vaccines with streamlined regulations. I believe most of these regulations should be permanently removed, so that drug and vaccine discovery don’t cost well over a billion dollars and a decade of development time. That’s not sustainable.
Now we have another coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease we call COVID-19. When it first came to light, I told my students that a vaccine would be developed soon, hopefully by the end of the year.
The time and expense it takes to create a vaccine or to market a drug is a regulatory nightmare. It should never take that much time and treasure to manufacture vaccines and drugs. But because that’s what we’re used to, some assert that the COVID vaccines are “rushed.”
I suspected that small-molecule antiviral drugs to lessen the severity of the illness would be very difficult to find, and it has proven to be so. Why was I confident that we would be able to produce vaccines against COVID-19? It has to do with the mutation rate of the virus. HIV mutates so quickly that it’s almost impossible to raise a vaccine against it, although researchers are still trying. Epidemiologists and virologists must decide each year which strains of influenza viruses they want to raise vaccines against, and they do a good job predicting the season to come, but it can be hitor-miss, because the mutation rate of flu bugs is so high. SARS-CoV2 mutates with some frequency, but fortunately its mutation rate is roughly a quarter that of influenza viruses. I thought that COVID-19 would be a good candidate for a vaccine. In early fall 2020, there were several vaccines in phase III trials worldwide. The Johnson and Johnson vaccine triggered too may contraindications (deleterious side effects) and was withdrawn. Two vaccines are being approved and implemented in the United States as of this writing, with others in development and testing. This is a signal accomplishment, and all responsible—from President Donald Trump and his Warp Speed program to all the researchers worldwide—should take a bow. These are mRNA-based vaccines, too, which is really slick. Never has a vaccine gone from pathogen discovery to vaccine approval in less than a year— it is unprecedented. The president removed a lot of regulations and accelerated the process of vaccine discovery. Ne-
That might be true relative to what we have had to live with in the last decades. The expense of vaccine and drug discovery has been escalating, to the point that manufacturers can’t afford to bring to the public many drugs that are critical to human wellbeing. For example, new antibiotics are too expensive to develop, because the manufacturers know they cannot turn a profit on them. This is tragic, because we now see more antibiotic-resistant bacteria than ever before. Pharmacologists see an impending crisis barreling towards us. The amount of regulation we have now is far more than was required in the 1960s, when the FDA was cautious enough to ban thalidomide for pregnant women in the United States. It is indeed cause for celebration that COVID vaccines are already being distributed, and I will not hesitate to take the vaccine, though I have a good understanding of the coronavirus and do not fear it. I think we have done what our historical moment called for, and I hope biomedicine of the future will be all the better for it. —Dr. Glenn A.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.CO M, using the file number assigned to this case 087861-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (866) 931-0036, or visit this internet website www.clearreconcorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 087861-CA to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Redlands High School students winner of Aguilar’s Congressional App contest

OFFICE OF PETE AGUILAR
Congressman Pete Aguilar meets virtually with RHS students (in no particular order) William Porayouw, Diya Theodore, Sanjana Fernando, and Richa Jos who were declared winners of the 2020 Congressional App Challenge for their mental health and wellness app Eudemonia.
O
n Monday, Dec. 21, Rep. Pete Aguilar announced that William Porayouw, Diya Theodore, Sanjana Fernando, and Richa Jos, all students at Redlands High School, are the winners of this year’s Congressional App Challenge for the 31st Congressional District. Their app, Eudemonia, is a mental health and wellness app designed to provide users with a daily check-in and connect them with helpful resources and activities. The team met with Rep. Aguilar in a virtual ceremony held earlier this week. “The Congressional App Challenge is a great chance for Inland Empire students to show off their
creativity and ingenuity, and that’s what team Eudemonia has done with their app. I’m always proud to highlight the talented young people in our region, and I look forward to sharing their accomplishments in the US Capitol,” said Aguilar. “Mental wellness has always been an important matter to me, and in an age of social distancing, it is something that I strongly feel needs more public awareness. Doing work at the intersection between technology and social activism has not only made me conscious of my role as a student in STEM, but as a citizen,” said William Porayouw.
“We created Eudemonia in an effort to promote mental wellness during a time in which we have seen fear and instability dominate the lives of many of our loved ones. Being able to work on this app with such an inspiring group has led me to realize the beauty of being able to bridge the barriers between computer science and social reform,” said Diya Theodore. "During the pandemic, I've come to realize that technology is only increasing its relevance in a modern world. However, the way we use these incredibly powerful tools is up to us. Spotlighting mental wellness in a fun and creative way can help us be more mindful of our fast-paced lives,
San Bernardino County Mock Trial Semifinalist teams announced
F
our high school teams have advanced to the semifinals of the 39th annual San Bernardino County Mock Trial competition. Redlands, Rancho Cucamonga and Los Osos are familiar rivals and have reached the semifinals for three consecutive years. The three teams will join Cajon to vie for top honors. The teams will compete virtually over a two-day period from Jan. 20-21. Redlands from Redlands Unified will match legal skill with Cajon from San Bernardino City Unified. Los Osos and Rancho Cucamonga from Chaffey Joint Union will battle for courtroom domination. Each group will act as both the prosecution and defense. Only two teams will emerge from the two-day competition to secure a spot in the event finals on Jan. 23. Redlands seeks a back-to-back championship—extending its
record to 17 San Bernardino County Mock Trial championships. Cajon returns to the semifinals hoping to win its second title. Los Osos and Rancho Cucamonga are returning to compete for the gold. The Mock Trial competition simulates a criminal case where students portray the principal courtroom characters on both the prosecution and defense sides of a case before a real judge. This year’s case is People v. Croddy—
the trial of Lee Croddy, an aiding and abetting case. Twenty-six county teams competed virtually in four preliminary rounds which ended on Dec. 9. The San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools and the San Bernardino County District Attorney’s office co-sponsor the event. The winner of the county competition will advance to the California Mock Trial Finals scheduled for March 18-21, 2021.
and hopefully bring more happiness to a world that could always use more,” said Sanjana Fernando. "In these unprecedented times, isolation and despair have taken a toll on our loved ones. As we move forward I believe mental wellness is of utmost importance in our lives. Working on Eudemonia has allowed me to recognize
the social role technology plays in our community,” said Richa Jos. As this year’s winner, Eudemonia will be featured on the Congressional App Challenge website, and the team will receive an invitation to the virtual #HouseofCode reception in 2021. More information on the app is available here.
