>> reporter: minute night his heart broken father could barely make out his words telling him he is hopeful the search is continuing until his son is found. officials continuing to do just that but in the morning when there is light. >> the biggest challenge at nighttime is the lack of light. it is really dark out there. you can't see very well. >> reporter: j.r. stone, abc 7 news. >> our thoughts are with that family. new at 11:00, an earthquake rattled the north bay. a magnitude 2.7. it was centered just north of santa rosa and hit just after 8:15 and more than 1,600 people reported feeling it and a few thought it was a strong gust of wind. california is the first state to surpass 3 million total coronavirus cases, according to data from johns hopkins university. tonight, there are new concerns about allergic reactions to a specific batch of the moderna vaccine. several bay area counties are

minutes at the site in case if there is an allergic reaction that can be taken care of immediately. >> reporter: she hopes providers will get better at risk categorizing their patients and understanding what causes the reaction. >> i personally think the risk at this point is fairly low, so majority of the population should be able to get the vaccine. california received well over 3 million doses of covid-19 vaccine, but just 43% have been administered. the supply is there but not keeping up with demand. the state has one of the worst backlogs in the country in fact. the cdc data ranks the state 45th when it comes to the shots administered per 100,000 people. >> looking at the data and numbers, a lot of the outstanding vaccines that are still not being used are

♪ [male narrator] for as long as we've existed, boys & girls clubs has always been about coming together. to support the families of our communities and do whatever it takes to give every kid a chance at a great future. but we're going through a challenging time right now. and while we may not all be able to come together in the same physical ways, in other ways, we're coming together like never before. because that's what “whatever it takes to build great futures” means. it means providing a safe place to go for children whose parents are on the front lines battling the virus. it means providing millions of meals for kids who previously relied on their school or a meal program which are now shut down. and it's about harnessing the power of technology to keep kids moving forward with their education. so yeah. “whatever it takes to build great futures” may mean something different right now. but whatever it is, that's exactly what we're going to keep doing.
