jumping the line. tonight, the "abc7 news" i-team uncovered how the state created a loophole forfeitness instructors across california to

get vaccinated in the same tier as health care workers. >> why did it take the state close to a month to realize this loophole existed? reporter stephanie sierra is pushing for an explanation. >> it's an issue now of scarcity, an issue of supply. >> reporter: as vaccine supply hits a new low across the state, it's even more crucial the vaccine is getting into the arms of those most vulnerable. >> it's frustrated when people that are more resourced, more connected, perhaps more technically savvy and find out about information, get ahead of the line. >> reporter: yet the governor's administration allowed that to happen. >> some people are not getting appointments. >> reporter: she is a fitness instructor in santa clara county. on january 7, they were told they were eligible to receive the vaccine under tier 1a after the state released guidan

and she classified under the classification of health care workers. >> there was an email that went out saying that. i was like, hold on. >> reporter: word spread fast about the alleged new classification. a manager in santa clara was tagged in this post on facebook, encouraging her colleagues to call a toll-free number to schedule their appointment, writing yes, you are a health care worker. >> we're not health care. >> how many fitness instructors have taken advantage of this classification? >> about 15 to 20 i know of have taken laj of this loophole that we call it. but there are so many emails that have gone out from the different places in the area, as well as just thousands of fitness instructors in general. so imagine all thousand of them clogging the system. >> were any of these fitness instructors 65 or older? >> these are instructors who are

strong and he willny, and they're probably just over 25, between 40, 45 even. >> reporter: the bay club corporate headquarters, which has 23 locations in california, encouraged employees to get vaccinated starting in january. abc 7 received the following statement -- >> reporter: but it wasn't until last friday the state changed the rules. they wrote -- >> we should really allow these vaccines to go to the health care workers, to the elderly, to those who are eligible for real. >> reporter: why did it take a month for the state to realize that?

we reached out to the california department of public health for an answer, but have yet to hear back. >> whenever somebody puts themselves in line ahead of another person, they're putting another person's life at risk. >> reporter: cindy chavez says it's infuriating, as high-risk communities in her district are struggling to access the vaccine. >> you're 75 or old and a female in our community, we have only vaccinated i think about 5,000 out of 45,000. >> will you make it a priority to make sure the state is aware of this, to ensure better oversight? >> we have been on an ongoing basis communicating with the state and at local level to be as clear as we can. >> reporter: but apparently it's not clear enough. >> there needs to be a lot more diligence and ensuring they check the i.d.s of the people who are going in and making appointments. >> reporter: she says some of her colleagues have been able to get vaccinated even after the rule change.

several well under 65 sent texts to other instructors this week, after successfully getting a vaccine and encouraged them to still try. >> they're not being checked. so they go to whatever hospital they go to, and they've been vaccinated. >> reporter: the question is, how many took advantage of the loophole before it closed and is it really being enforced? the district attorney's office made it clear, anyone who is not in tier 1a and tries to jump the line is doing so under penalty of purgery, which is a felony in california and punishable up to four years in prison with a maximum fine of $10,000. >> let's transition to the weather and the rain falling once again. >> yes, a good amount of it today. sandhya patel is here with how long this is sticking around. sandhya? >> yeah, not much longer. as a matter of fact, it's pretty much done.
