China News Service, December 6th. According to the US "World Journal" report, the Mayor of San Francisco, Brid, held a Chinese media roundtable in the city hall on December 3 to discuss the recent community safety, gang theft, and theft of stores in Chinatown. In response to topics of public concern such as the new variant virus, she especially praised the Chinese media for being close to the community and reporting in a timely, objective, and fair manner.

The current police force arrangement is until the end of the year after the holiday.
But she said that such police protection hopes to become normal.
At present, police and civilian police patrols have increased in important business communities in San Francisco, and citizens can see police patrolling everywhere.
During the meeting, Breed repeatedly mentioned his concern for the safety of the Chinatown community and Chinatown's small businesses, and expected to mobilize more resources next year to support the recovery of the small business economy, but did not disclose specific support details and resource mobilization .
Breed said that recent organized gang thefts not only occurred in San Francisco, but also spread to other cities in California.
San Francisco took protective measures and increased its police force in the first place.
She said that she is also actively formulating plans with the city council to discuss how to increase the police force and protect the safety of the community.
Regarding the new variant of the new crown virus Omicron (Omicron), Breed said that the city of San Francisco will not introduce new epidemic prevention measures at present, but does not rule out that it will make corresponding adjustments based on changes in data and scientific reports in the future.
