12:17 pm
them all of life. amenable schedules, things like that can all help. >> because they have to work. you know, you work in an emergency shelter. you're open 24 hours. these are overnight shifts. these are for, you know, kids essentially just coming out of that school trying to like pay off their loans and everything. so it's really difficult to be a veterinarian right now. what about schools? are there enough of them out there? are they training people and the appropriate way fast enough of what can be done from just from that beginning to we need to get more kids, even just interested in it to start. >> yeah, i think i think that's really where it they've opened more last few years. but just getting people are at younger age. we actually started doing this program helped little. that's where we teach them. will kids about that or a profession, get them interrupted at that level because unfortunately, everybody understand about the
12:18 pm
reading patient. they don't. they don't always understand the the all the winds that we have. and so just making it a more positive environment people get into. i think it is the first >> when we talk about the vet shortage and you brought up how people adopted a lot more pets are bought more pets during the pandemic. and now all these pets need care. is there something you would want a new pet owner? even a veteran pet owner to know about what's going on inside him. animal hospitals to help us. >> yeah, i think, you know, the being it the first and foremost thing that we can do. so making sure that you use tablets relationship with your primary. that and also with the clinic. when you need that, that after-hours care just education is so key. i'm looking think people things like so that you pay for the emergencies or for the birds use when they do come up because i think there's. 2 very important part of this is
12:19 pm
like finding a cure, but then also being able to just support your your animal when they need that still, i'm just being prepared, an understanding. what would it take you on a pat super important. >> are there any benefits your veterinarian? what do you love about your job? we can try to like untie some some people out there to maybe do a career switch here or a job is being a veterinarian. what do you love about your job? >> i love the ability to help people when when people come in with their especially in our in our field or in our area, very people comment that you don't know what's going on with their pat. we have superheroes effectively that can save animals and it just goes back comic book days of like reading about fighter matters from ed and being that person on the floor really help. and so it is so and it really does just. how this war
12:20 pm
around it. when you get help that i just it's scared and they don't know what to do. and their pet parents don't know what to do and we can be there to so it it is truly the most rewarding thing. >> and is there anything that you see that would i mean, we're also looking like really cute animal videos right now. but is there anything that you see is being what kid? and this that shortages have you seen like were kids starting to apply and to medical school or at into, you know, vet school or is this something we're going to continue to deal with for a while? >> i think like as you said, that you have to act more people, but that also we have used better there's there's got out there that are willing donate their time and health your do some simple procedures like spay and neuters. and so it's just the lighting. actually that's something that we're working on right now is helping you know, people that are in need to get their pets. the basic medical attention,
12:21 pm
just people that things like spayed or neutered that they need. so i think i think it's interesting because there's a want from the veteran community to help more. it's just the lining to bring out how we can better. and so as i said, we're you know, we're in the process of partnering with the group to really try to make this season, both of that we can provide care for more people. that's what but we got into the industry or we want to help people we hate the fact people can find a vector that they need whether, you know, it's just accessibility, your financial mean. and i think that's something that's really been fun with with for governor evers, the group is that we really try to work with everybody that we can that get them the care they need the last thing we want to do it. takeaway there, pat. >> doctor jason dubraska, the medical director of veterinary emergency group. thank you so much for joining us here on kron for appreciate your time. thank you so much. to >> i'm trevor shirley in washington. the white house making a major announcement on

12:49 pm
make our way through the afternoon and the evening. and then overnight it will start to make its way to the valleys and then it will stick around in the morning. so we've seen this pattern before and then things will start to mix out by the afternoon. so we will see mostly sunny skies as you make your way inland. temperatures are currently sitting in the upper 50's and san francisco low 60's in oakland. we're warming up to the 70's and san jose livermore just almost 70 degrees. half moon bay still cool in the 50's. so these are the high temperatures today. usually that to 03:00pm hours. that's when we start to see the warmest time of the day. and you can expect close to 80 degrees as you make your way to live or morning conquered. and santa rosa. 76 degrees for you. little cooler by the coast. so looks like you'll be bumping up to the low 60's san francisco mid 60's here and then a similar at the east bay shoreline low 70's there expect similar temperatures as the next couple of days go by will be holding on to the upper 70's inland. we will

12:51 pm
passwords have been exposed. as of tonight is 767,000 bridges in including leaks from facebook, adobe, linkedin, dropbox and more. problem is when your password is exposed in a breach, hackers try to use it to log into other websites mask order might add. it's time really, really volumes and suddenly because you breezed past across someone's now into social media council, whatever else it might freeze as pensions, which is why it's so important to use a password manager to create strong, unique passwords for every site. so you never get remember 100 plus pass puts so that you make. so what most people do is to i like my dog and i went to university and this year. so they is my pass. and going to use everyone. there is a password alternative called pass keys where your phone approves loggins. but this can be confusing, especially sinking across various devices. and we're trying sort of dragged people from something very
12:52 pm
familiar and easy to use through to something that's much more secure china hunt believes it's just a matter of time before the next breach that i think we're judging companies look by the fact headed out of rage and more about have handled it. and if your information is already out there, there's not much you can do to pull it back. services that claim to remove your personal information online. typically only deal with sites like people finders and data brokers. so my concern is they well intentioned they do a good job of taking you out of the least dangerous places. but they come take you out of the west places. if your info is on the dark web, it's usually there for good, which is why prevention is key. if you want to link to the website, have i've been poned. you can find it on mine. just go to rich on tech dot tv. >> that's rich on tech. i'm rich demuro. >> a new disney pixar inspired home in los angeles is now listed on airbnb in honor of the incredibles 20th anniversary. this vacation
