the rules, expectations we've lived with for a year now. across the bay area wineries and brewery and distilleries will enjoy relaxed rules that will take effect tomorrow. today we learned the only two counties not in the red tier will move there on sunday. the two counties contra costa and sonoma. and on monday, the next phase of vaccine distribution begin, which opens it up to people with disabilities for certain health conditions, as well as transit workers. >> we'll address each of those changes in depth, but first a closer look at the battle between the bay area's largest county and the insurance giant the state has picked to take over vaccine distribution. we've reported on this all week long, because it can affect how and when millions of people get vaccinated. abc7 news reporter chris nguyen has today's update. >> reporter: tonight the bay area's largest county is pushing for a fairer share of the state's covid vaccine supply. >> we have a county that's put a lot of effort into taking care

of our safety net population and the people that are most at risk. >> reporter: as california transitions to blue shield for management of its vaccine distribution across the state, santa clara county officials say they'll only sign an agreement if they can retain local control and the use of their own appointment system, which they say is far superior to the one provided by blue shield. so far half of the state's local health jurisdictions have signed on to the plan or have stated their intent to do so by next week. >> the so-called equity plan that the state has is really just a masquerade and plan to send more vaccine to southern california. >> reporter: some argue that santa clara county doesn't need help from blue shield as demonstrated by its robust vaccination network. this week county officials were informed the reason behind their low supply from the state was a result of vaccines being diverted to other large providers such as the university of california and sutter health after the state made an accounting error. despite the mess, blue shield maintains that they're ready to take charge. >> the ability to know where the

vaccine is at all times, know what the inventory is with each provider allows for a much smoother, more predictable manageable system that can optimize performance. >> reporter: so far half of the state's local jurisdictions have already signed on to the plan or have stated their intent to do so by next week. several lawmakers sent a letter to the state saying the formula excludes zip codes in the bay area that have infection rates that are nearly twice that of the state's overall rate. >> really troublesome because that means that the areas of need, people of great need in our county and the rest of northern california are not getting treated eckebly. >> reporter: this county fight fogger what they believe is right. in san jose, chris nguyen, abc7 news. on monday, the state begins phase 1c of vaccine distribution. so what does that mean exactly? that means transit workers can get vaccinated as well as anyone

aged 16 to 64 with preexisting health conditions. stephanie sierra is here to explain how to know if you qualify. stephanie? >> dan, the state lists 11 severe health conditions that will qualify people toer hhrisk. it's very specific. the problem is the rest of the guidance is vague, vague enough to have some doctors concerned people may take advantage. starting monday, anyone ages 16 to 64 with severe health conditions or disabilities will be eligible for the vaccine. the state details a list of severe health conditions ranging from cancer, chronic diseases to heart conditions. but as the guidance expands, it becomes blurly. anybody at risk deemed by your health care provider. >> we will for the most part be compliant with that record. >> reporter: some call it a loophole. >> we want low barrier access to

vaccine. we don't want to create too much bureaucracy, too many forms. >> reporter: mike wasserman sits on california's vaccine advisory committee. he is concerned about vulnerable people who don't have access to doris insurance to get that early approval to qualify. >> that's the concern is that we have a bit of a logjam in the next months when people who really need to be vaccinated are going to have trouble getting access to the vaccine. >> reporter: the state confirms the majority of appointments for the more than four million californians eligible will not be immediately available on monday. that's until vaccine supply improves. >> we dent expect any dramatic increase in the next couple of weeks, but i am optimistic in terms of what we're hearing from the administration, from the biden administration. i certainly hope we will see an increase in april. >> reporter: until then, mass vaccination sites like san francisco city college are unable to meet the goal of administering 4200 vaccines per day as supply stays slim. which is why ucsf clinician

wayne little says there will be more attention towards verifying eligibility at sites across the county. >> just some proof that they do actually fit the eligibility criteria for the category they are in. >> reporter: the city is working with staff at all county sites to determine how eligibility will be checked, but the key takeaway here is if you are eligible and able to make an appointment, or even have a note from your doctor, you will be able to get the shot. live in the newsroom, stephanie sierra, abc7 news. >> steph, for those eligible on monday, when can they start making their appointments? >> great questions. not until monday. the state says the my turn site will be live for the updated eligibility tier in the morning, but warns there will be delays as a majority of appointments won't be available right away. so bottom line here, i'll be checking this my turn site in the morning to ensure it's working. >> okay. let us know. thank you very much, stephanie. we appreciate it. well, today on getting answers, abc7 news anchor

kristen sze asked dr. tomas aragon, what the state's vaccination plan is going forward. >> the current plan is before president biden's announcement is that we were going to move to just a pure age-based approach. we would go systematically down each age, because that is -- that is the quickest, easiest way to vaccinate folks. everybody understands age, and that one is easy, much easier to implement. >> now you can check out the vaccine tiers and see how many people have been vaccinated in california and other states. it's all part of our vaccine tracker. you'll find that on our website, abc7news.com. wine, beer and whiskey lovers from one end of the state to the other will drink to this. beginning this weekend, brew house, distilleries and wineries that don't serve food will once again be allowed to have sit-down customers. the announcement from the state department of health was the news henhouse brewing company owner collin mcdonald has been waiting for, and so has his

bottom line. >> the last 12 months has absolutely been the hardest year of my life. our number one priority has been to not lay people off. and i've done everything i possibly can to not lay anyone off, and i'm proud to say we didn't. >> under the rule change, establishments will be able to serve customers with reservations outside until 8:00. the owner of sonoma brothers distilling says today feels like christmas. they'll be able to accommodate up to six customers at a time starting tomorrow. more reopenings are coming soon as the entire bay area is on the brink of being in the less restrictive red tier. that's because the state hit a critical milestone today. two million covid doses administered to underserved communities. that's paving the way for restaurants to reopen for indoor dining. museums, movie theaters and gyms can also move inside. the red tier changes kick in about 36 hours from now on sunday. that's when sonoma and contra costa counties will move out of the purple tier. we've been living in a pandemic for a year, as you know. at the beginning, really, we woefully underestimated what it

would change and how long it would last. let's give you a look back now at what one of our expert, abc7 news special contributor dr. alok patel said to our larry beil one year ago today. >> i can see being the larger part of this year. >> a year? >> we really have to slow things down. do i think? we're just gambling on live television. do i think we're going to have a shutdown of schools and all this for that long? i don't. >> amazing what dr. alok patel, how he assessed it so accurately. it's crazy to see them sitting so close together in the studio. it looks odd. today dr. patel joined us via zoom to give his predicts for the future and he is optimistic. >> supply is doing its job. we have treatmets that work. we know what safety measures we need do. we know what activities we need to avoid and we should be able to get to herd immunity with everything given this summer. so six months fro from now is the middle of september. i anticipate we will be in a much better place. maybe not back to 100% normal,

but pretty close to a new variation of it by mid-september. >> and that is nice to hear from along. after a year we'll never forget, what can we expect in the year ahead? we're focused on our path forward all next week for you here on television and online for a look at the better bay area that we are building together. a new commercially available covid test has received emergency use authorization from the fda. the company says it has the power to tell most patients whether they've been infected with covid in the past, possibly without even knowing it. it's call t-detect. and kate larsen explains how it works. >> reporter: we first metric st. john at stanford in a special study of what's come to be known as long haul covid. while his symptoms have person citiesed for month, he said in the beginning they were mild enough that he almost went undiagnosed. >> i didn't have fevers, and i didn't have a cough. and those were the criteria on which they used to authorize testing. >> reporter: after weeks, he was finally able to arrange a test that confirmed his diagnosis, but stories like rick's may have

left thousands of people across the country wondering if they might have been infected with covid in the past and never known it. either because they were never tested or had mild symptoms. >> and so trying to tease out what symptoms might or might not be due to having covid in the past is incredibly important. >> reporter: a doctor for seattle based adaptive biotechnologies. the company is marketing the first widely available test to tell whether someone has been infected with covid, even months after the fact. it employees a sophisticated process to detect the activity of t-cells. >> the t-cell fingerprint is lasting out to about nine or ten months. and about 90% of patients. and so we're able to see kind of beyond the typical window where you'd be able to pick up antibodies. >> reporter: like a standard antibody test, a patient preadvise a lab sample either at lab core or with an at-home

appointment. it's in partnership with microsoft, and the patient gets a result back in about seven to ten days this doctor is an infectious disease specialist and senior medical adviser with adaptive. he believes that the test results could be critical for long-term covid patients and their ability to find the right care. >> it is important on an advocacy level for individuals not only to understand their own medical history and what they've been to, but to advocate for themselves. >> and then they have a confirmation that maybe it's associated with covid, then they can get more access to treatment. >> reporter: kate larsen, abc7 news. >> and the t-detect tests costs roughly $250. that's for patients paying out of pocket including prescription and blood draw at a local lab. stimulus payments will start arriving in some bank accounts as early as this weekend. that's according to tades payme ll arrive through direct deposit in the coming card.

adults making less than $75,000 a year will receive a one-time stimulus of $1400. for couples filing jointly, the income limit is $150,000. a lot more to come this friday. the i-team has been digging into data of federal and state relief covid funds for months. tonight, see what was the difference between funding public and private schools. >> i am deeply, deeply saddened by this. >> she's putting into words the emotions that many are feeling about the attacks against asian americans which have cost some their lives. i'm meteorologist sandhya patel. a late season cold storm is on the way for the weekend. vial the

a san francisco man faces hate crime charges after allegedly sexually assaulting an asian woman at san jose's diridon station. 32-year-old johan strydom was arraigned today. prosecutors say during wednesday's attack, he grabbed the 26-year-old victim by the neck, flung her on her back, dragged her and yelled a racial slur. several witnesses prevented him from getting away. fighting for race and social justice is part of building a better bay area, which is a commitment that we have made to you, and it's something we work on very hard every day here. tonight we are learning more about the man who law enforcement say targeted asian seniors and most recently is accused of robbing and assaulting a 75-year-old man this week who died from his injuries just days later. abc7 news anchor dion lim spoke exclusively with his care manager, who oversaw the last few weeks of his life.

>> i warned him that elderly asian people were being targeted, and i really didn't think it would hit in his residential neighborhood. >> reporter: those words of warning coming from the late pak ho's care manager, who watched over the 75-year-old in his last few weeks of life. >> i took him last friday to get his second covid shot. he brought me cookies to thank me for taking him for the covid shot. >> reporter: ho was out for his usual morning walk tuesday when he was, according to police, robbed and knocked to the ground by 26-year-old teaunte bailey. already frail and using a cane, ho hit his head on the pavement and died just two days later. >> he walked very unstably. he was headed downhill. and nobody would have had to push him down with the force that was used to rob him. >> reporter: bailey is described to me by alameda county law enforcement as someone with a criminal history spanning back to 2012, including five felonies in oakland.

the most recent less than a month ago when he allegedly breck into a senior living apartment and violently shoved and robbed a 72-year-old man. when asked about letting bailey out on ankle monitor after his involvement in armed robbery in san francisco last march, district attorney chesa boudin said at a press conference i was at thursday -- >> when police bring us arrests that include adequate evidence to prove criminal charges, we file criminal charges. >> reporter: bailey is charged with robbery and special circumstances felony murder and currently is behind bars with no bail. ho is survived by three daughters who are currently planning his funeral. >> i am deeply, deeply saddened by this. >> reporter: in oakland, dion lim, abc7 news. >> and please remember, if you're looking for an ally, go to abc7news.com/take action. we have a list of local resources for you. we enjoyed sunny skies today, but they won't be here

clear other than a few patchy clouds. and look at this gorgeous post sunset view from our east bay hills camera right now. it is clear from the vlad point. 50 degrees in half moon bay. emeryville camera looking back towards san francisco, and it's looking good. 64 in santa rosa. mid-60s fairfield, concord. although it's not going to be quite as cold here in the bay area, it's still going to be cold enough for a frost advisory mendocino county and a freeze warning for lake county that is because temperatures will be falling to or below freezing. definitely protect those frost sensitive plants. tomorrow morning low 30s to the mid-40s. we here in the bay area will see patches of low clouds to start off the morning. and then for the afternoon, it will be mainly sunny, breezy as you will notice. temperatures low 50s to the mid-60s. about where you should be for this time of year. level 1 storm coming in sunday afternoon/evening, going into monday. starts off with rain. monday showers with gusty winds. we'll have the gusty winds both

days, actually. but the chance of shunneder, hail, and high elevation snow comes in on monday as the coldest air moves in. let's start the timeline sunday afternoon, rain moves in. as we go into the evening, it's pretty widespread across the region. then monday is when we start to see that shift into the colder air filtering in, which means the potential is there for a wintry mix. but this system is going to be fast-moving unlike the last one. rainfall totals will reflect that, anywhere from 0.2 to 0.4. a little less than that for some of the dryer spots. a look at the accuweather seven-day forecast. it's a breezy, cooler saturday. but you're good to go for outdoor plans. should it be just final. sunday afternoon/evening going into monday is when we're expecting that level 1 storm. milder for tuesday. slight chance of a few showers on st. patrick's day. and then an opportunity for rain on thursday and going a weekend. for that weekend, not this weekend, but the following weekend as well.

so at least every few days, we have the storm door opening up, which is encouraging since we are so behind right now. rainfall percent of normal 38 to 42%. the sierra snowpack is about 60% of average. so we'll take any storms we can get. ama, dan? >> it's a good pattern. thank you, sandhya. all right, as we continue, pay the mortgage or school tuition for the kids? that's the impossible choice some bay area parents are being forced to make. private schools offer many vajs over public schools, you know that, including one the abc7 i-team uncovered when it comes to covid relief money. stay with us. now more than ever, it's important to keep yourself and your community safe. stay at home. and if you must go out, wear a

>> we are wrapping up our week-long coverage on learning loss, look at what's being done to help students during the pandemic. tonight a special report digs into education inequities. >> the abc7 i-team combed through hundreds of thousands of state and federal records to track covid funding across the bay area. we found private school students received more money on average than public school student. >> that's right. i-team reporter stephanie sierra takes a look into those communities to show you how they're struggling. >> so we do 16 divided by 4. i want you to go back over your writing. we have 16 ounces. >> it's a huge juggling act. >> reporter: juggling the fear of learning loss. it's a constant fear for the nogales family. >> it was really hard on aidan in terms of trying to grasp the material. >> reporter: 10-year-old aidan is in fourth grade. >> as this year been tough for you? >> yeah. >> reporter: yeah. tell me why. >> because i have adhd, so it's also hard for me to focus.

>> reporter: the best part of aidan's day is the ten-minute workout routine, not science or math class like it used to be. >> nothing replaces going to the school. >> reporter: down the street, st. veronica's, a private catholic school, has been open since october 5th. but in order to afford tuition, the nogaless wouldn't be able to pay their mortgage. >> we're getting by, but i know it's tough for everybody. >> reporter: tough, yes. and the funding resources aren't equal. the abc7 i-team spent weeks analyzing tens of thousands of state and federal records provided from the california department of education to track the amount of covid relief money going to public schools. for private and charter schools, we calculated the amount of federal funding received through the paycheck protection program or ppe. abc7's data analysis found out of the private schools in san mateo county that qualified for ppp funding, the average student received the equivalent of around $2500 more compared to the average public school

student. >> i think it's not fair. >> it shows a lot more work needs to be done. >> reporter: denise pope is a senior lecturer at stanford's school of private education. >> private schools have lots of different funding sources. they have ability to lie aye ply for the loan forgiveness. they also have endowments. they also have funds put away for rainy days. they also have private donors, and many of them had more resources to begin with. >> reporter: case in point the bentley school in oakland. the highly respected private school chose not to release their endowment size, but according to their website, tuition for kindergarten through grade 8 is anywhere from $32,000 to $35,000. climbing to $46,000. the cool also received a lone for close to $3 million. abc7's data analysis found that averages out to the equivalent of around $4300 per student. that's three times more the amount of covid relief going to

the average public school in alameda county. we reached out to the bentley school, but have yet to hear back. >> disappointed. i'm disappointed to hear that the inequities between public and private schools still exist in terms of trying to make sure that our kids can go back to school. >> reporter: a key resource to do that is routine testing. menlo school in atherton for just a year-long membership to one medical for all one thousand student, staff and their families to make vaccinations and weekly on campus covid testing more accessible. >> it was an opportunity that came to us, and we've -- we've been in a fortunate position. >> reporter: the school confirmed to abc7 reserve funds were used to cover the costs. in a statement, the school wrote menlo school did not apply for ppp funding as we did not feel that was what the government program intended. that wasn't the case for st. ignatius. the private kat click school in san francisco that has a $23 million endowment received close

to $5 million in ppp funding. that averages out to around 3100 per student, where as the avenue public school student in san francisco received close to half that. si told abc7 the loan allowed the school to keep employees on payroll, help continue scholarship and financial aid programs, and made it possible for students to return to campus by november 9th. the school wrote we are fully aware this is a loan, and we have every intention of paying it back as required. >> there is a real use for the ppp for payroll, right. at these private schools. i think the difference is the resources that were already in place, the size of the students, the fact that they're not unionized. >> reporter: while private schools like bentley and si are back in the classroom, the oakland and san francisco unified school districts are still debating. >> how do we open up spaces for students. >> reporter: they're not alone. abc7's analysis found of all the public school dribs in the bay

area, 88% are mostly still stuck in distance learning. >> there are some issues with equity, who can afford to go to a private school. >> we can't afford to put our children into private schools. >> reporter: this brings us back to the nogales family, wish thanksgiving could tell their 10-year-old. >> okay, aidan, it's time to go back to school and not be so worried about it. >> reporter: but the worries won't go away, especially as the wait list for their 4-year-old to get into pre-k has jumped from four to five years. >> as a parent, i'm worried that she might fall behind. >> reporter: it's important to note not all funding sources for public and private charter schools have been released, so it is possible some of these total liss change as we get access to more information. in the meantime, for a closer look at the funding totals in your county, head to our website and click the i-team. stephanie sierra, abc7 news. >> now you can find all of this week's reporting about education on our abc7 bay area app for

expected to hit 51 billion this year. last year it is estimated 75 billion were placed to bay area phones. that's 2.7 billion her day, or 31 calls per second. on nch a, that's nine robocalls per person per day. there is no shortage of robocall blockers in app stores. some free, some with a fee. so telemarketers switch numbers often. >> it's a cat and mouse game where they're trying to figure out the right number to call you from, whatever it is that will give them an increased chance of you responding and letting them do their pitch. >> reporter: even when they leave a message, as many as one in 20 people do call back which are good odds out of millions of calls made. however, some progress is being made to battle the nuisance calls. >> rolling out enforcement and some of the technology at the network level, i think we will move to having fewer robocalls. but for now the light at the end of the tunnel is a little bit away.

have you checked your credit report lately? are you happy with what you see? a lot of your friends and neighbors are not at all happy with their reports. and 7 on your side's michael finney is here now to tell you about an explosion of complaints over this. michael? >> dan, you have that right. credit reporting complaints have doubled since the pandemic began. we are swimming in complaints, and now we are swimming in free credit reports too.
