time now for the 4 at 4:00. spencer andrew are joining us. let's go back to the top story. the johnson & johnson vaccine. regulators have called for a pause in administering the shed to investigate reports of potentially dangerous blood clots. in europe, the rollout of the vaccine has been delayed. the rare clotting disorder has been found in six patients. one person has died. johnson and johnson makes up 3.6% of vaccines administered in the u.s. and 3.8 percent of vaccines in california. spencer, what you think of it? >> i can see why people who are vaccine hesitant would be concerned. we don't know -- even though we don't know yet if these -- i shouldn't say these deaths but these conditions are tied to the vaccine itself. again look at the numbers. 6 people out of 6.8 million people who received the vathe va
4:41 pm
dr. patel and the others who have commented are pretty much on target. it is very unlikely although, it hasn't been concluded but very unlikely the vaccine caused this condition. >> drew, do you think it will lead to my vaccine hesitancy among folks? >> i really do. i think that is the biggest problem i will have, liz. it is not a figure of speech. it really is one in 1 million chance that this would occur to you if you i think what may need to happen in the future is we may need to have some high profile prominent people , possibly who have had the vaccine or who would get the vaccine to show people it is safe. it may come down to a bit of a message in the future to people who are on the edge about should they or shouldn't they. it is safe and the chance of you seeing these side effects are extremely extremely rare. >> hopefully they can find some common denominator with the people that did get sick to

4:43 pm
>> we already have -- every time we come up with this story about the bay bridge with the golden gate bridge raising their toll like a quarter or $.50. that is a huge thing. you drive over those bridges. it is like seven dollars every time. times that by five times a week and that is a lot of money to get in and out of the city if you have to work here. then, you add on another expense. that is just because you are in a certain part of the city. you have to pay like $30? it is so outrageous. they have got to find a better way to raise these funds. no one will back this. nobody will back this idea. >> then, there is parking. >> top of the neighborhoods -- >> right? if you can find it. >> we are not a fan of alan. >> and architect in italy has created one of the first 3-d printed homes made from clay. it is a 3-d home from clay. the design was printed layer layer
