terminating the stay-at-home- order, ending the blueprint for safety economy, and as 9:00 p.m. restrictions like social distancing capacity limits, and the tier system, they will all come to an end. a new public public public publ by the health department that includes health guidance for face coverings. stick with the cdc recommendations. that means that masks are not required for fully vaccinated individuals except if you happen to be on public transportation or in schools, healthcare settings, prisons, or shelters. masks are required for indoor settings for people who are not vaccinated. stephanie sierra follows today's developments. she joins us from the newsroom with a look at what the governor said. >> reporter: the governor made it clear. regardless of what happens with the vote next thursday, the masking guidelines, indoors, outdoors and in the workplace will mirror the cdc's. if for some reason, the

decision was not going to lead that way, he mentioned he won't hesitate to issue an executive order. >> reporter: california is set to fully reopen the economy next tuesday. today, the state got 2 steps closer. >> today, officially, i will be signing two executive orders that will officially move this state out of the restrictions and modifications. >> reporter: the order he signed will move the blueprint, in other words, eliminate the color system that has been in effect for the past 40 weeks. >> the blueprint will no longer exist. >> reporter: the second action will allow the state to start suspending 58 covid related executive orders and provisions that were enacted to help businesses operate during the pandemic. >> reporter: dozens and dozens of executive orders, hundreds and hundreds of provisions, we will begin to wind down in an orderly manner over the course

of the next few dates, weeks and months. >> reporter: it is unclear what will be included in the effort. some roles will be exempt. >> some things are not included, some things like pharmacy technicians continuing to be pursuant to the orders to administer vaccines and allow as an example the of telehealth efforts for doctors. >> reporter: it will expire in phases, starting in this month, and going through july and september, working to prepare. there is a new public health order for public health distancing and mask requirements for unvaccinated people that will go into effect on tuesday. as for whether or not masks need to be worn inside at work, newsom says we will have more from cal osha. >> i was happy to see them or send earlier in this week, the previous vote, and so as i said

a week ago, we will get where we need to go. i have all the confidence in the world we will get there. >> those updated guidelines are expected to be released at any moment now. newsom says that his office will respond next week. to clarify any concerns and ultimately issue an executive order if need be, i will say, he appeared pretty confident that will be necessary. live in the newsroom, stephanie sierra, abc7 news. there still seems to be some reluctance among some people and confusion when it comes to masks. listen to barbara lee among those not quite ready to take off a mask. >> i think some people will keep masks on. i will probably be one of them until we know for sure that we have reached the point where everyone is vaccinated, or

likely percentage. >> what do you think is behind this? we have been doing this for 15 months or whatever it is. some people are going to be reluctant. in terms of the state saying, okay, it is time -- >> there is a tug-of-war going on. we are seeing it on the streets and at cal osha which is work rules. it boils down to this. i was talking with doug -- a labor group, they are opposed to taking off the masks under the current proposal by the government. they say look, we have 50% vaccinated. 60%, we take kids out. it's not like we are at some high level of immunity. there is a chance that you could catch something, and that a variant could come in. in other words, there are people who believe we are in the midst of a pandemic. it's not over yet. this opening date has been set prematurely. >> i know there are other states that would beg to differ. that is part of the complication. how much of this is a tug-of-

war? you look at the teachers union, obviously, they have been reluctant to go back in. >> the california nurses association is a prime player in politics as well. on the other hand, you have management groups that say under these rules that were set out, we have to provide masks for everybody. everyone has to mask up. that's going to cost a lot of money. maybe we need to million masks. there were some in the proverbial details where businesses -- how long would they have to keep records of whether people are vaccinated or not? it's a lot of trust, even if they are changed on the surface, if they will be changed to the extent to make people feel comfortable by saying, okay, you can stop wearing a mask when you walk into a building. there is a bit of back-and- forth going on this.

newsom says if it doesn't do what we will want it to do, we will do it with an executive order. >> there is a health and science part of this, than the political part of this. part of the basis for the recall is people feel he mishandled all these rules and regulations. they crushed small business. how much politics is involved? >> it's an immense amount here and across the country. as you say, we have data. we have data. we are not sure how to interpret it. what rate are we hitting the goals we want? do we have the economics of it? do we have the politics of it? it is all coming together in these setting of guidelines and goals. so to say, is this a science- based decision or political based decision or economically based decision -- take your pick. it's all of the above. it will come to fruition next week. >> it will be interesting.

so, thank you. to be continued. >> california here we are. five people among the bay area are winners for the vacs for the win lottery. that includes one from san francisco, one from san mateo county, and two from santa clara county. winners were drawn in sacramento while governor new spoke in san diego. look at this. he congratulated one of last week's winners as a 17-year-old from san diego county. >> they call my mom. my mom came in and was like, nancy, you're not going to believe it. we didn't believe it at the beginning. after a few more calls they were like, okay, it might be true. >> i can confirm it. i see your name on a $50,000 check. >> when the state fully reopens on tuesday, 10 people will win the big prize. that's 10 1/2 million dollars

each as part of the final cash prize drawing. the state plans to close one testing site on the embarcadero. the last day of year 30 and pier 32 will be tuesday, june 15th. the city continues to see a drop in cases and hospitalizations. testing will be provided through community access points. we have been following the growing problem of fireworks in the bay area. it is especially imporespeciallr dry brush and fire conditions. one east bay city is trying a new tactic. if you report somebody possessing fireworks, you could get thousands of dollars. >> it is something that has currently gotten worse since covid. people are fed up with it. they wanted to stop. it used to only happen on the fourth of july and maybe new year's eve. now, it goes on all year-round. >> reporter: the richmond mayor had an idea. why not take nonprofit

community money from fundraisers, not public dollars, and offer a reward of $2500 to someone who tips off the city on who is shooting off fireworks. >> it is hard for someone to set off commercial grade fireworks and no one notices. people know who is doing this. if we could start getting some arrest and finds, we could publicize them. people would think twice about whether this is something they want to do. >> reporter: there are people saying i know a neighbor or relative who has a big cash fireworks. they are worried that that person will find out who turned them in. richmond police are assuring the public it is all confidential. police officers will file the complaint, and the person who gave the tent gets the reward if there is a citation or arrest. >> i would be curious to see how it works. >> reporter: oakland fire department is on edge. they will close risley peak on july 4th weekend and block

scenic pullouts. >> i don't know if they have enough people on the streets to combat the fireworks shows we see on the streets. so i think what they are doing trying to get them out of their hands before the fireworks start, i think it's a great move. >> do you think it will work? >> i don't know. we will see. there is no downside. i think we are going to get some action. >> reporter: i am leslie brinkley, abc7 news. changing times, a controversial plan to stagger school starts times, but the clock might be running out. we have the big test on the terminal plan and what is next for the oakland a's. triple threat, bay area sisters are ready to graduate, what makes them so unique. as we are heading into the as we are heading into the weekend, we are warming sometimes they say, "it might work, it might not work." and so i ask myself the question, like, "why even get the vaccine, if it can also harm you?" for me, it's like taking a 50/50 chance.

other issues, the district needs a change in start times to dozens of its schools under the plan, schools will begin at either 7:50, 8:40, or 9:30. part of the thing to stagger start times is you can reduce the number of people on campus at any one time. it keeps everybody safe. london breed just announced fireworks will be back this year for the fourth of july. >> the city organized fireworks. don't go setting them them them >> that's an important distinction. >> like drew said, we have hot weather coming. you will feel the warmer weather coming tomorrow and sunday, warmer than today, even humid, it will feel muggy in the afternoon. it's take a look outside, the camera is showing great visibility. the air quality has been perfect this entire week.

and notifying the three major credit reporting agencies. mcdonald says it was the victim of a security breach. they were able to access to franchisees, but no customer data was exposed. however, customers in south korea and taiwan were accessed. they are investigating the breach but don't expect it to impact daily operations. finally, taco bell and aaa will be offering customers bring vaccination cards thing they got at least one shot. chipotle customers will getwilli free side of queso with their order. it is all part of the vaccination program. you can find out more on the

one drop in each eye, twice a day. don't use if you're allergic to xiidra. common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied to the eye, and unusual taste sensation. don't touch container tip to your eye or any surface. after using xiidra, wait 15 minutes before reinserting contacts. got any room in your eye? talk to an eye doctor about twice-daily xiidra. i prefer you didn't! xiidra. not today, dry eye.

building a better bay area, moving forward, finding solutions, this is abc7 the battle over the oakland a's new ballpark faces a big

problem. supervisors will consider the request for the county to join a regional collaboration to get the ballpark built. the city wants the county to kickback tax revenues from the ballpark to help offset infra structure costs of the project. we have three major players on the issue addressing the topic this afternoon on are getting answers program at 3:00. >> it is a regional asset. we have fans not just in oakland but in the east bay and alameda county. you know, i think we have something that the board of supervisors should consider. >> when it comes to our terminal, we are open to pursue that direction. i think we need to be more clear for the citizens and the residence in terms of the investments that oakland will have to make. that's what we are reaching out to alameda county hoping they would join us on the infrastructure investments that oakland will have to make.

>> i think the county board of supervisors, we feel a lot of resentment that we are being dragged into this. we have worked hard to get out of the sports business. folks are trying to convince us this is now not a sports deal but a redevelopment deal. we are still not necessarily convinced of that. >> supervisor miley did add that he would support the county's involvement if the numbers actually add up. here are the numbers. according to the city, the tax revenues would grow $50,000 a year to an estimated $6.3 million a year. the county would also receive $40 million in one-time construction tax revenues. the transportation commission would receive 4.6 million a year in transportation funding. one thing is clear in the conversation we had, these parties are not communicating effectively with one another and that needs to change.

>> they all said they needed more information. the a's will celebrate pride month by honoring glenn burke, the first openly player. he finished with the oakland a's in 1959. he died at the age of 32. tony six years ago, this month, the team is honoring him by naming the annual pride night in its field in his honor. joining me now to talk is the executive manager president, jim, we appreciate your time, you have a job fair tomorrow from 10:00 to 4:00. what specifically are you looking for and who will you be hiring? >> hey, larry, inc. for taking the time with us today. we have all aspects of game day, we call them playmakers, ticket takers, personnel and

food and beverage, security, merchandise, the gamut is really there for any 3500+ game day employees we employ at levi's stadium on any given sunday. >> so would employees who worked in previous seasons have an edge giving that they have experience? do they have to reapply? >> we are still putting work together today as we have the vaccination site still in place. we have a bunch of opportunities for folks. we will be open to full capacity. you know, it has been a year and a half since we really had a full scale. certainly, you lose some to attrition, but those who are on board stay with us, we are just looking at open positions we have available. >> those interested, where should they go? >> levi's stadium, our stake in public which is on the corner

in park inside the great america lot, it is west of levi's stadium, head over to what we call gate f, park in red lot 1, we will have a team there to showcase the drafts you are interested in. you can look at all of them. you can see what position fits for you as we open levi's stadium to the masses come this august. >> i hope they will be serving food for everyone. that would be worth it whether you want the job or not. but at the stadium this year, i don't know, hopefully, to the end will we be post-covid -- i don't know if this thing will be the song. >> listen, we will the vaccination site we propped up after the super bowl. we had over 350,000 shots in folks arms. we are proud of that. that ends at the end of the

month. then we will get prepped -- you know -- we will have some practices, but for the first game in august, some of the things you will see, we will have to re-educate people on what to expect when they come to the game. we will highlight disinfecting and cleaning protocols. we will focus on technology and we unveiled this in 2019, but sadly, it didn't get a showcase. it is the food and beverage all- inclusive program. everyone has a season-ticket and they will get free food. it's included in the price. the technology that comes along with that, mobile ordering will be something that is big. we will showcase a ticket turnstile -- you know -- frictionless which is going with the times. that sort of thing will be helpful for fans as we process them as fast as possible. >> best of luck with the jowith

there. i hope to see you in person at levi's stadium on the field for a game. >> you and me both. first of all, thanks for getting the message out.message. we are looking forward to getting 70,000+ people back. it makes it come alive. the invitation is out to you. let me know when you can get down there. >> all right. you had me at michael. i'm good -- >> i heard you were talking about you wanted a free meal on june 15th. we will have to postpone that. >> it might be a little better. thanks again. good luck with the job fair tomorrow. >> all right. >> now to a heartwarming moment in washington, d.c., vice president kamala harris was visiting students at an early childhood education center when one of the kids made a comment about liking her american flag pin. she quickly took it off and

gave it to the child. she showed him the right place to wear it. that is right above his heart. that is right above his heart. on that is right above his heart. onall of this started when we discovered the benefits of local, raw honey for our family. and then we said "hey, you know what? this is a business right here." we went out and started to sell it. to help us get going, we got the chase business complete banking ℠ account. it's more than a bank account. it comes with quickaccept, which lets us take card payments anytime, anywhere, and get same-day deposits at no extra cost. it's more than honey. it's about building something for our family that will endure. i'm morgan, and there's more to me than hiv. more love, more adventure, more community. but with my hiv treatment, there's not more medicines in my pill. i talked to my doctor and switched to fewer medicines with dovato. dovato is for some adults who are starting hiv-1 treatment or replacing their current hiv-1 regimen. with just 2 medicines in 1 pill, dovato is as effective as a 3-drug regimen...

to help you reach and stay undetectable. research shows people who take hiv treatment as prescribed and get to and stay undetectable can no longer transmit hiv through sex. don't take dovato if you're allergic to its ingredients or if you take dofetilide. taking dovato with dofetilide can cause serious or life-threatening side effects. hepatitis b can become harder to treat while on dovato. don't stop dovato without talking to your doctor, as your hepatitis b may worsen or become life-threatening. serious or life-threatening side effects can occur, including allergic reactions, lactic acid buildup, and liver problems. if you have a rash and other symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop dovato and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, or if you are, may be, or plan to be pregnant. dovato may harm your unborn baby. use effective birth control while on dovato. do not breastfeed while taking dovato. most common side effects are headache, nausea, diarrhea, trouble sleeping, tiredness, and anxiety.

so much goes into who i am. hiv medicine is one part of it. ask your doctor about dovato-i did. ♪ it is time for the four at 4:00. we have dan and drew for the conversation with the new health order. the state makes it official. the mask mandate will be lifted on tuesday if you are fully

vaccinated. if you are unvaccinated, you have to keep your mask on indoors. masks will be required on public transit, airports and a few other settings. cal osha was supposed to replace guidances this afternoon, but we haven't seen them yet, but we are told they will align with the state. the governor did say he was confident that the agency would go with the plan. the problem was that it wasn't. that caused so much confusion. >> there has obviously been a great deal of confusion about these roles. they have gone back and forth a couple times. my prediction, unfortunately, is continued confusion. we are excited about things opening up. but those without vaccines are supposed to behave differently and wear masks. i predict some conflict, you know, some ugly incidents with people getting in one another's faces because there is still confusion and some people who might not have been vaccinated and resent the fact they still have to wear a mask.

i'm worried, you know, it will be a problem. at least we are at this point. >> it has gone so smoothly. >> that is a good point. >> what could go wrong? >> now a touching message from the start of the pandemic, a letter left on the plane that was mothballs by delta back in march when the pandemic first hit last march, 435 days later, it was found by another pilot. the letter reads, in part, chilling to see the fleet in the desert. if you are here to pick it up, then the light must be at the end of the tunnel. so interesting, what would you have written to yourself at the start of the pandemic? i thought about this for a moment and realized what i would have written is you are not going to believe how good working from home is and how much better you are at your job and more efficient. that's probably where you

should stay. >> i thought that was a pitch. >> not at all. who would i pitch that >> fine. >> that would bebebebe >> buckle up. for myself, i thought it was going to be two weeks. right? then it just went on and on. prepare yourself, you will get through it, no one has been through this in our lifetime. it will be different. >> i will say that this too shall pass, and stay positive as best you can.you can.you can. >> that's true. i would tell myself, believe it or not, you would have a vaccine and a little more than a year. you would take over anxiety and worry. high-speed trains are coming back. the department of transportation is restoring a $929 million grant to fund the high-speed rail project. the funds have been revoked in

2019 former president trump. the first phase of the project involves a 165 milemilemilemilee second project would allow travelers to take a train from san francisco to los angeles in less than three hours.three hou. okay, this $1 billion is great, but the cost at this point is closer to 99 billion. we started at 33 billion when they conceived of the project and sold it to californians. at this point, all we know for certain is that we are sent to bakersfield park. a lot of people can't wait to take that. i am a little skeptical still. so the building is nice but so many questions remain. i'm not that optimistic. >> i agree with you. 2008 voters approved billions for this project. it was supposed to be finished by 2020. here we are in 2021. i am skeptical, too. with air travel, how many people -- air trial --

relatively cheap. it would be nice to become a train culture like in europe. i would be worried we spend a ton of money and the cost will go up and will people use it? >> i think if they connect to enough cities, that is key. if we are getting it going, it is going very slowly. it's a lot of money. i think we can get it from here to vegas. >> i wanted to go in another direction. >> there is another hundred billion that he wants to spend. >> i believe it is supposed to be a california project. >> come on. >> make a right turn. we will be there. >> the technology could be obsolete. >> we would be hyper looping. >> that's what i am saying. >> if you are a fan of wheels, life-size version, yes, a mattel branded themepark is under construction in arizona, groundbreaking started yesterday. it would feature a hot wheels

themed roller coaster and a life-size thomas the tank engine passenger train. it is expected to open sometime next year. i think that would be immensely popular, like crazy popular. >> i was obsessed with hot wheels as a kid. i can see a lot of people flocking to family vacations in this place. >> i think it is a great idea. i wonder why arizona seems like to put it down in southern california where universal and other theme parks sort of go for that kind of entertainment -- maybe it will be a big draw. >> my guest -- guess would be cheaper land. >> my kiddo used to love thomas the tank engine. i know little kids love it. if you want a thomas the tank engine experience about traveling far in the santa cruz mounta
