>> reporter: this teacher was days away from receiving her second dose from the santa clara county health system. last night, she became one of the nearly 8700 kaiser permanente members who were told there being transferred from the county to kaiser due to the insufficient vaccine supply. >> i want to make sure that i am focused on teaching and giving my students the best i can give to them. now, my mind is freaking out about getting vaccinated. >> reporter: the county's allocation has gone down as more vaccines are being directed to southern california at the direction of the governor. >> expectations were set at the state level, that everyone who qualified would get a dose. there just isn't enough vaccine to go around. >> reporter: a spokesperson for kaiser permanente released a statement that read we're identifying affected members and reaching out starting today to confirm they will have access to the vaccinations. this will be followed with a separate communication provided instructions for these members.

but she got the email from kaiser but said the system would allow her to make a second dose appointment this cause more uncertainty as she tries to be fully vaccinated. >> i can't look at that as a first dose. i will receive pfizer. i'm back to square one. >> reporter: both kaiser and the county trying to make do with what they have as community members continue to plea for help. the vaccine shortages come as several bay area counties are struggling to make the transition to blue shield's vaccination network. stephanie sierra follows the latest. live in the newsroom. will the counties of a say in how many doses are coming in? and, whether more doses coming in next week? it is an exercise in huge frustrations. >> reporter: that's a great question.

there is somewhat of an expectation that it will happen now. and they should be getting more doses. the state will announce that it will direct blue shield to give some decision-making powers to better assess faxing those allotments. most of the bay area counties are questioning what to do next. but 13 days ahead of the deadline for all california counties to fully transition to blue shield's vaccination network and only two bay area counties have announced their plans. santa clara county opting out. sonoma county opsin meaning blue shield has officially taken over distribution. >> the remaining seven other bay area counties tell us they are in discussion with the insurance giant. if they do, counties will be signing them. >> what is in the process of happening? we have inside. we expectwe expt shortly. >> reporter: he is a manager san mateo county.

they are leaning towards opting in with blue shield with hopes it will bring more clarity on weekly dose allotments. >> we need several weeks to plan for these operations. we are literally getting it week by week. it makes it very difficult. >> reporter: previously, san mateo county would administer between 10,000 per week. that number is shrinking. the county receives only 4001st doses per week. >> the number first doses have been going down. but this is a result of the state committing 40% of all incoming doses following equity directives. the governor confirmed bay area county should start to see an increase over the next month. >> within five and half weeks, where we can eliminate all of the vaccines to everyone across the spectrum. supply will exponentially increase. >> reporter: until that happens, mass vaccination sites

will only be administering second doses. the hope is messed sites in san francisco county one of the follow suit. we'll be right back. grant colfax is still uncertain blue shield will make the process more efficient. >> the more we can cut out the br, see, we get vaccine faster. that will be our choice. the governor says california should get 1.8 million doses next week. as far as when we can see a significant impact from supply increases, newsom says that is about three weeks away. we heard about this equity metric brought up a lot. we are talking about blue shield, especially when it comes to allocating more resources to southern california. do we know how counties are working to meet those goals in the bay area? >> yes, right now it all varies for each county. san mateo county, a portion of their allotment of doses has been reserved for mobile pop-up clinics that will be set up in

>> reporter: schools in oakland will reopen at the end of this month. any new requirements in the fall left to be negotiated between the school district and their labor unions, regardless of the cdc recommendations. the oakland education association already told us they will demand the six feet distance requirement. >> while they may say it is okay to be closer, understand that we are having multi generational families at home. we want to take precautions. >> reporter: even with signs leading this decision, some teachers are skeptical. last august, a ucsf study found that size does matter. kids who are shorter and viral particles dropped to the floor which means they can't spread upward towards the adults in the room. >> reporter: when it comes to schools, the county makes recommendations, but as we've seen, the districts, and their labor partners, can choose to fall them or ignore them.

i've seen how cancer can affect the people i care about. that's why i'm helping protect myself against some cancers like certain cancers caused by hpv. for most people, hpv clears on its own. but for those who don't clear the virus it can cause certain cancers. gardasil 9 is the only vaccine that helps protect adults through age 45 against certain diseases caused by hpv, including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, anal, and certain head and neck cancers, such as throat and back of mouth cancers, and genital warts. gardasil 9 doesn't protect everyone and does not treat cancer or hpv infection.

your doctor may recommend screening for certain hpv-related cancers. women still need routine cervical cancer screenings. you shouldn't get gardasil 9 if you've had an allergic reaction to the vaccine, its ingredients, or are allergic to yeast. tell your doctor if you have a weakened immune system, are pregnant, or plan to be. the most common side effects include injection site reactions, headache, fever nausea, dizziness, tiredness, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and sore throat. fainting can also happen after getting gardasil 9. if you're an adult through age 45 who hasn't been vaccinated talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your risk for certain hpv-related cancers, and gardasil 9. help protect yourself.

targeted and vilified simply for being asians. >> the anti-asian racism stuff is not due. it depends, whenever times get bad, then it comes out again. >> reporter: has we stayed home protecting ourselves from this virus, community leaders and active this point to racism as the intangible virus that the pandemic enhance and the killing of george floyd was the tipping point for many. >> i would be lying if i said that the pandemic had nothing to do with how many people were outraged. because, at the time, for months, everyone was inside. >> reporter: to understand where we go from here, dr. jennifer trend, an ethic studies professor, believes lasting change will change. >> we have to work together. otherwise, our communities will continue to be overlooked. >> reporter: we're seeing this transformation now in the mist of the pandemic at a xavier brown. >> i think it is a unique moment in our history. we have an opportunity to truly

bring equity to those committees. >> reporter: covid highlighted inequities that the latino community have been facing. reverend fong came out of retirement after 30 years of service. >> we are in the community what do you see? >> i see a lot of history. this is our living room. all the seniors used to hang out here with no fear. and now they can't. >> reporter: reverend fong continues to set up meetings with that there groups. but he says there's a lack of education playing a role in these attacks. >> on one side, on a high level, total solidarity with the black community who get it. the latino community, muslim leaders understand what the asians are going through. but, how do we get the youth,

you know? to understand that as well? on the youth level, that is where a lot of the violence is taking place. >> reporter: xavier brown his friend mobilized 15,000 people to protest the death of george floyd and police brutality. today, he stands with the asian community. >> my heart goes out to the asian community that is just being so unfairly discriminated. the work is never done. we can always improve you know? a martin luther king and markham ask, they did what they needed to do in their lifespan so that we could improve on. >> reporter: he believes that educating minorities on commonalities will be the key

in changing stereotypes and ending racism. >> this is a circle. we're writing the circle and who encompasses us. >> reporter: us, meaning the asian america community, the latinos, as one. >> we are dismantling this false binary between us versus them. we cannot succeed or survive and thrive until we come up with solutions that elevate all of our humanity. >> reporter: community leaders emphasized why you and i can do every day. become an ally to those facing systemic racism in our circles, workplaces and communities. they say that individual work will make a difference. reflections and predictions from the executive director of silicon valley's institute for the future. she says the topic we are tackling today, these inequalities, influences

everything we've talked about this week, from the health of all of us to the economy. whether it is wealth inequality, income inequality, there is a huge, racial differences. that wealth inequality is 10 times greater between white and black families. so, improving conditions of people who have been marginalized, improving their economic well-being actually benefits everybody. this improves health outcomes in the community. it improves everybody because we are seeing the pandemic. it is a collective experience. you are only as healthy as the homeless person on the street from you. it is not about, you can isolate yourself and say, i'm just going to be really in great shape while all these other people are suffering. >> that is well said.

as we wrap up our week of coverage on the path forward, we are checking in with bay area residents about how the past year has change them. it is the latest installment in our covid diaries. >> things that have changed for good, it can just be a coffee shop. we have to be like a cafe that is offering interesting food items to take out. so, that is like the direction we're headed in. just to adapt to the times. >> i think a year ago, when i tried to put a time frame on it, all the things will be better in a month or two. i think i've learned that i can't really put a time frame on it. and there's no way you can really say how much longer it will last. and, you just have to roll with the punches and that's what i'm doing.

hopefully, in the future, things will get better with more vaccinations coming out. but, who knows? >> the key of the struggles, there's been articles about the toll of the pandemic has taken on parents. and, while i am a privileged, educated person and i will be fine, i am a statistic. i'm someone who has not gone back to an employee paid worker. i have to say home and we have three little ones. that is the social inequities around women, professional women, working women across the spectrum, across the income spectrum. >> we got to know our neighbors better. and i would say that there is an increase sense of community in our little, our little part of the world.

but mostly, this has sucked. >> mostly? >> yeah. >> you can watch our covid diary stories and all of our path forward coverage from this week, on our abc

i'm greg, i'm 68 years old. i do motivational speaking

in addition to the substitute teaching. i honestly feel that that's my calling-- to give back to younger people. i think most adults will start realizing that they don't recall things as quickly as they used to or they don't remember things as vividly as they once did. i've been taking prevagen for about three years now. people say to me periodically, "man, you've got a memory like an elephant." it's really, really helped me tremendously. prevagen. healthier brain. better life.

time for the four at four. we start with the that is weighing in on reported firings of five suffers because of past drug use, including marijuana. the white house press secretary said official factors were in play for the five people who were fired. in the past, atomically disqualify applicants. this comes after the daily beast reported on the firings. recreational marijuana is legal in washington d.c. but, it is illegal federally. a top secret security clearance is required to work at the

white house. normally, drug use can be disqualified. for most people, if there is hard drugs being used, you can understand why that would disqualify a person. but, i think, especially with the democratic administration, our country is heading to the legalization of marijuana. and, each individual state will have an opportunity to decide. i don't know if this will be the same rule 4 years from now. >> i suspect you are right, larry. the pendulum is swinging in a different direction. i understand the white house probably has has different requirements than a lot of other organizations and entities. so, i get there is a heightened sense of concern about any issue that may, in their judgment, affect security. but, as you suggest, things are changing. and, i don't think that would be the case in a few years. >> yeah, kristin, are there any thoughts? >> i think this is a surprise to some of the younger white

house staffers. but, president biden had indicated that may be an issue. i would be interested in finding out what those other factors are. it's like in those cases, there may be more to it. i see. he's getting some praise and criticism >> then you get into the privacy issues. and it gets complicated. moving on, the ncaa is is scrambling to address an equipment issue that prompted complaints of inequity between men and women in sports. this is unbelievable. it began with a sports performance coach posted a photo on twitter comparing the way one for women, they had a single set of dumbbells to you compared to the sprawling facility at the man's vineyard. steph curry, who treated wow, you are all trip and initially, the ncaa blamed the problem on a space issue. it turned out not to be the

case. it is working to rectify the issues i saw this on twitter. this is one of the good things about social media. if you see something that is so obviously wrong, sandy, i don't know if you saw it. the guys had this vast weight room and the women had like one tiny rack. they said that they didn't have the space. but, there is a whole ballroom that was completely empty. come on. people? the ncaa, we don't need the ncaa. >> that is just too bad. there shouldn't be that inequality, larry. i did not see that. it is clear that there are differences between the two. let's fix it. what do you think? >> that is so dumb that they had to be

of and fix it on their own? we have a much different sense of right and wrong these days. the good news, it is being rectified and they are embarrassed and maybe other schools or institutions will take action as a result of this and be afraid to be embarrassed. for the record, for me, the single rack of weights would be plenty. >> all right, can i say how many years have we had title ix now? why am i not surprised? >> and will allow cheerleaders on the sidelines at high school football games after all. the new guidance comes just days after state health officials band so-called supporting groups from attending games which drew complaints from cheerleaders and parents. under the reversal, sidelined cheer will be reclassified as a recreational sports subject to the same rules as competitive cheer which is allowed. it is not clear if the change applies to other supporting groups like bands and drum lines. i will say i do know that right now, fans are still not allowed. it is important to note, strict attendance rules are enforced. only a single adult per household is allowed to attend.

again, here is confusion. the state rules to say family presumably, both parents are allowed. some school districts are enforcing the one parent only. you to choose who is your favorite parent. you know, there's the whole cheer issue. you know how athletic it is. my daughter was a cheerleader. this would be a problem for us because, if i can't go, who is going to be screaming at the bases, catch my daughter, please? she was a flyer. it is better that i don't go to anything anymore. i would make a fool of myself. who is this moron yelling out there? >> well, cheer these days is athletic as almost any other sport. it is amazing what these people are doing. larry, to your point, it makes me nervous watching. but,

with a due. >> it is just as much a sport as a basketball players or football players. >> they just need to social distance on the side. tied covid protocols will be the only thing in place for next month's oscars. reducers request all nominees attend in person and no one will be allowed to appear by zoom. they are asking those attending to avoid casual attire for the kennedy says strict covid protocols will be in place with an on-site covid safety team and pcr testing. only those nominated, their guests, and presenters can attend the ceremony which will air right here on a bee seven on april 20. >> no sweatpants at the oscars? >> i know. this is an attempt to make sure the ratings are better. award shows haven't done as well will resume. i think they want the

walking the red carpet in the gown. what do you think? >> i think so. that is what people envision when they think of the oscars. everyone is decked out and making an appearance. if city protocols are taken, i suppose you can do it. what if a nominee is not ♪ ♪ are you ready to join the duers?
