forms of transportation including airplanes and of course mass transit. so they've decided for whatever reason maybe because of the closed confines that many people find themselves in particularly in airplanes that we should wear masks while we're traveling. >> reporter: they think that will be in place until mid september. bart isn't the only place you still need masks. you need them in schools, child care facilities, hospitals or healthcare facilities. any kind of mega event like a parade or a festival or a sporting event. prisons and jails and homeless shelters. this is for everyone, even those who are vaccinated. bart officials are not too worried about enforcement saying they've been getting about 96% compliance from people when it comes to wearing masks. if someone refuses they will escort them off the train. live in pleasant hill, amy hollyfield, abc 7 news. >> thank you. one of the places that might feel the most different today, the gym. so gyms are allowed to reopen

so we get to pull down some of the mask requirements. so it's going on an honor system. if you're fully vaccinated we welcome you in mask free. if you are not fully vaccinated we ask that you do use mask while working out. >> reporter: we're here pretty early. there's still a sign on this treadmill saying it it's closed in order to allow for physical distancing. i believe at some point they're going to start removing those. this particular gym also has a basketball court, it's got a pool, group classes. all of those they're finally excited to be welcoming people back in at full capacity. they'll be able to have the crowded group classes once again. reporting live in san jose, matt boone, abc 7 news. no doubt these local businesses are ready to reopen in full. many are facing an immediate issue. a lack of workers. now they're getting creative to meet the demand. we spoke with two local bar

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. ♪ [ sfx: ping ping beep beep bloop bloop ] lisa looks like you've...
