of covid-19 tests at indicate an urgen need to expand testing among low income latin x workers. while san francisco has an overall infection rate of that you 20 to 6%, higher among latin x patients. those who volunteer to be tested came from across the bay area. however, demographic data indicated most were low wage earners and live in high density housing. ucsf project leaders say that tells them two things. >> people are lined up. what does that tell us? there's not enough access to testing among the people who are being affected. that's number one. number two, there's too long of a time between a time a person gets tested and able to go into

isolation and quarantine. >> the typical person testing positive first noticed possible covid-19 symptoms four days earlier. community groups say more education about preventing transmission is needed along with support services to allow people to quarantine once there is a dig notes it is. >> a two bedroom is going for $4,600 a month. do you think folks can purchase two weeks worth of groceries and stay in their home? the answer is no. >> b.a.r.t. said they will continue to offer masks to riders not wearing them. >> the results were anticipated, but it does galvanize us and reinforce the fact that we need to be diligent in doing everything we can to keep people safe. >> sansco, dav you want to be ed about prepared just in case. what should you have on hand? some tips from our special

sure you have 14 days worth of food. you have enough to eat. not only for yourself but anyone you may be taking care of. that includes children, any other dependsents and your pets. >> stocking up on foods that have a long shelf life. canned foods, soups, dried pasta and make sure you have a good supply of clean water. not just to drink but to key things clean. >> since we're talking about disinfecting, make sure you have enough home cleaner. especially if you're trying to stay away from someone else in your living face is. >> that means everyone should have a designated trash can to throw away the tissues, to keep the virus from spreading person to person. to keep the contaminated droplets from spreading, make sure you have personal protective equipment. >> make sure we have enough pp every in the supply kit. that you have enough gloves and masks. >> that includes having plenty of hand sanitizer, too.

napa, san francisco, all reporting good air quality. the other locations, reporting moderate air quality. nonetheless, tomorrow we'll have some more haze. it will be another spare the air day with the air quality expected. but friday, we expect across the board improvements. 65 degrees in san francisco. 71 in oakland. gilroy, 83. and 64 at half moon bay. from mt. tam, we see it in the bay. 85 in fairfield. concord, 79. 82 degrees at livermore. and looking along the bay bridge, these are our forecast features. we'll see a mix of cloud and smog. a spare the air day tomorrow and excessive heat will be coming our way for labor day weekend. let's look at our excessive heat watchful this is really to keep

in mine. it covers all the bay area except the coastline and the bay shoreline during that period of time. the high temperatures will range from 95 degrees to 108 degrees in the hottest locations, and that brings with it the increased risk of heat-related illness. notice the fog and low clouds expanding along the coastline and across the bay. locally inland. there may be some patchy drizzle. 5:00, we'll see the low clouds and fog pull back to the clone giving us another day of hazy sunshine. overnight, the highs will range from low to mid 60s at the coast to mid 7 at the bay shoreline to mainly upper 80s in the warmest inland locations. it is certainly going to warm up. they'll call that minor warming with low 90s inland.

gosh, a look at saturday and sun. 102 in the hottest spots. saturday, 108 inland on sunday in the hottest spots. up to about 106 on labor day. highs will reach about 90 degrees in the bay shoreline. we'll see low to mid 70s, as the lowest of the coastal highs during that two-day period on sunday and monday. we can expect some moderation in temperatures on tuesday and finally, temperatures closer to average. cooler relief on wednesday. it will be a hot three-day period. just be cautious outside. limit your exposure to the sun and the heat. >> yeah. all right. time has run out for one east bay we made usaa insurance for veterans like liz and mike. an army family who is always at the ready. so when they got a little surprise... two!? ...they didn't panic. they got a bigger car for their soon-to-be-bigger family. after shopping around for insurance,

they called usaa - who helped find the right coverage for them and even some much-needed savings. that was the easy part. usaa insurance is made the way liz and mike need it- easy. for people with heart failure taking entresto, it may lead to a world of possibilities. entresto helped people stay alive and out of the hospital. don't take entresto if pregnant; it can cause harm or death to an unborn baby. don't take entresto with an ace inhibitor or aliskiren, or if you've had angioedema with an ace or arb. the most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure kidney problems, maybe normal isn't normal. but at denny's, we're still here day and night creating new ways to safely bring you the food you love. because we love to feed people. and that will always be normal to us.

the fight over a big tree in pleasanton is over and the tree did not win. an enormous eucalyptus is coming down at lions wayside park even though some people thought it wasn't given the chance it deserved. >> the rev of chain saws for this massive eucalyptus tree believed to be the oldest and largest in the city of pleasanton. drone view 7 shows us the scale of the tree towering over homes and businesses. he is mated between 125 and 150 years old. the city says the tree has an

incurable fungus and must be taken down before rotting branches fall and hurt someone. >> it would be better to have a scientist out here checking out the internal workings to see if there's a hollow spot or a cavity somewhere. i don't think it will die any time soon. it will probably go another 500 years. >> reporter: the work is a slow and steady process. crews breakic up branch by branch. they go into the chipper. a painful process for neighbors to watchful. >> i feel like major surgery, heart surgery. they're just taking out the heart of eant. reus the to the wayside tuesday. protesting the removal of the tree from lions full swing as onlookers young and old say goodbye to a cherished land mark. >> when people come to visit, i

show them that tree first. look temperature tree. it is like five fingers on a hand. >> reporter: the work on this massive tree is expected to be complete by the end of the week. a portion of the tree will be pre served for historical purposes. that will be put on display at a nearby park. julian glover. abc7 news. the blowout blow-up. nancy pelosi caught breaking the shutdown rules in san francisco. we'll have

no apologies from house

speaker nancy pelosi. we mentioned earlier, the security camera reported her inside a union street salon getting her hair done which is against city regulations. >> when they said what we're able to accommodate people, one person at a time, and that we can set up that time, i trusted that. as it turns out, it was a set-up. so i take responsible for falling for a set-up. >> speaker pelosi said she's been to that salon several times through the years. we asked oakland mayor libby schaaf about her take on the controversy this morning. >> as elected officials, we have to set an example. we have to be extra careful that we are come mying with rules and really being role models. >> the speaker said she thinks the salon owner owes her an apology. all right. joining me now to sort this out, abc7 news contributor phil, this seems like a really bad look for

nancy pelosi at a really bad time coming up with the election weeks away. is it reasonable to assume as an elected official, you of all people have to know the rules in your own district? >> well, you should know the rules in your own district. chances are you helped make them one way or the other. and nancy pelosi is urging for the entire country to wear masks and follow these procedures. that puts her in the frame. it reminds me, a couple years back i was having a conversation with a democratic political consultant that was operational research. he dug up dirt on other candidates. he explained something. he said, if a politician wastes $1 million, that just goes over the average voter's head. they don't understand that. if you have a picture of a politician reaching into a piggy bank and taking out a nickel, that is something everyone understands. and that's what this is. this isn't something huge but it is a nickel that everyone has an opinion on.

whether you are someone that wants to get their hair done and couldn't, whether you're a small business that wants to cut somebody's hair and can't, or whether you're donald trump and you're going to use to it bash pelosi. >> it's a nickel that we'll see a lot of. in the next few weeks. so what is your reaction to the use of the word set-up in speaker pelosi's explanation. nobody forced her to go to the salon. >> well, let's give her a chance to explain it first. let's hear what she had to say. >> there's more to this that i'm not going into as to the motivation of a salon to say, yes, come in. and then they go from there. it was clearly a set-up. i take responsibility. only for seat-up. >> she got the i take responsibility right. i think most of the people in politics would say that's what you do in a situation like this. adding on the set-up might be getting too cute by half. let's be honest. nobody forced her to do it. and yes, somebody found out she was going. the owner of the salon whose

question about why the owner didn't say, you can't come in. something like this might have been going on before, one way or the other. and so yeah. i don't know if it is a set-up but you walk into something. something got leaked. and now you're having to face it. >> all right. so how does this impact pelosi's role within the democratic party in the final weeks before the november election? because some people that we interviewed today felt, this is not a story. but others clearly disagree. >> i think you're going to find, like i said. this is a shiny nickel. everybody looks at it and has an opinion. i don't think it will affect the election. it will be something thrown up there. what it might affect is that the overall questions and confusions about what can open and what cannot, and the frustrations from both people and businesses about this, that sometimes don't make sense. in other words, why can't that salon be opening? that's where this might have an

effect. people say, hey, wait a minute. if she can do it, why can't somebody else? >> well, the rules have been confusing from the jump here. let me ask you this. is it possible in 2020 for any politician, democrat, republican, green party, tea party, green tea party, i'll make up a new one to say, hey, you know what? i messed up. i made a mistake. i should know better. it is on me. just own it and move on. >> you know, i think this is a possibility that might happen. that is, if you're going to consider running for office. otherwise, no. >> yeah. i don't want any part of that. thank you, phil. >> and you don't want any part of that either. you can read phil's column in the sfron chronicle sundays and wednesday's. >> now that's a new concept.

the green tea party. all right. a wedding like nothing you have ever i felt gross. it was kind of a shock after i started cosentyx. four years clear. real people with psoriasis look and feel better with cosentyx. don't use if you're allergic to cosentyx. before starting, get checked for tuberculosis. an increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur. tell your doctor about an infection or symptoms, if your inflammatory bowel disease symptoms develop or worsen, or if you've had a vaccine or plan to. serious allergic reactions may occur. learn more at cosentyx.com.

one of them looks kind of tan. the other looks caucasian. when my daughter who is about my color is out with the one who looks caucasian, people will ask her if she's the nanny. that's not as offensive as what happened here. but it is still weird, you know. just weird. >> i was going to say, i echo your story in the sense that i know a lot of women who are asian who have children, who are half asian. oftentimes they think the mom is the nanny as well. so you know, what do we need to do here, guys? >> stereotyping. >> when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. that's what a couple did when the pandemic blew up their wedding plans. they had an idea to at least re-create the event. they did this.

they brought them to the planned wedding venue last weekend and staged these photographs. and get this. the photos of the wedding party are quite small. they were fastened to a baguette. >> how convenient! you can eat them afterwards. you have to keep living life. >> i dare say. maybe they got their ideas from the baseball cutouts. >> i was thinking exactly the same thing. i love the trick photography. if you put the smaller object in front of you, the couple in the background, you can make they will appear large. that's actually, this will be a very dated reference. how charlie chaplain used to shoot his movies and spencer would go when he was a little

kid. >> this is why we make you stand in front, by the way. >> they won't let me out of the house. >> a legendary bay area restaurant is now selling its popular food online. you know the restaurant in mountain view, they have locations in sun locations, their mile high cake is being shipmented by gold belly. really helpful attempt when people are craving those items and restaurants are really suffering. not cheap though. $59 for one coffee cake. but it can serve 12 -- i know, hang. on hang on. it serves 12 people. so only $5 per person if you look at it that way. >> i know you've had this cake. >> if you've ever had it, you know one slice is gigantic.

and it is essentially two servings for the average person. that's great. if you haven't had it, they usually do blueberry. that's their staple. so in the fall they might do a pumpkin coffee cake. i love that! >> i have to argue with you. i teeth whole thing by myself. it doesn't feed two people. >> if you also order a meal, sometimes i have a little left over. >> now we're just talking to each other face to face. we're not even looking at the audience. i love this. spencer? >> we wouldn't eat that anyway. >> all right. >> exactly. we wouldn't. we wouldn't. more for the two of them. >> all right. would you do this? beer is going to the dogs. check it out. it is called dog brew by busch. a nonalcoholic bone broth made from pork butt, celery, mint, turmeric and ginger. the product isn't cheap. it's about $10 for a four pack.

that's apparently not stopping people from buying it. busch said the brew is sold out and there's a waiting list. they plan to donate $1 for every four pack to the best friends animal society. well, spencer, i got to say the word butt today. >> wait a minute now. was there any alcohol content at all? >> that's what i was wondering. i didn't hear that part. >> i don't get it. >> all right. nonalcoholic. >> like you could just give the dog bone broth. >> we don't want rover -- well, yeah. >> but then nobody would buy it. this way they can charge you a lot of money. >> at least some of the money goes to a good cause. >> to call it brew. you might as well call it wine or whatever you want. >> yeah. >> i guess it's good advertising. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> that'california phones offers free specialized phones... like cordless phones, - (phone ringing) - big button, and volume-enhanced phones. get details on this state program. call or visit

in the east bay an independently owned movie theater has turned to the community for help. our east bay community journalist melissa pixar has the story. >> i thought it would be a two to four-week closure but nobody thought it would possibly be more than six weeks. this was one of the better grossing art theaters in the country. being around for #65 years ther are generations of people that tell me i watched my first movie here. i went on a date here. it has so much history. when covid hit we immediately shifted our operations to a curb side fair and carnival style, treats, popcorn, cotton candy, snow cones. all kinds of fun stuff you were not getting anywhere else around here. it was our sole source of income. of course we started the gofundme campaign when we determined five months into this that we needed help. we had many people tell us you should start a gofundme but i

held off until i really absolutely felt it was necessary. our goal was $65,000. the goal was simply to survive till 2021. the response was just so overwhelming the first 24 hours we hit $40,000 after 24 hours. after two full days we came very close to hitting our goal. i was just in awe of our supporters and the community in general. and just truly, truly humbled. this money will help regardless of whether we're open or shut down it is going to help tremendously. once we saw how well the gofundme was being supported, it just really reenforced how important we are to the city. the support has been astonishing and we are truly grateful. it's been truly amazing. >> let's hope they can save the theater. thanks for joining us for abc 7
