pandemic. >> of course, it's frustrating. of course, it's upsetting, disconcerting. we are so done with this virus, but the virus isn't done with us. >> reporter: in san jose, i'm amanda del castillo, abc7 news. >> if you have questions about coronavirus vaccines, you can ask the abc7 news vaccine team. just go to www.abc7news.com/vaccine. stopping dangerous driving like this in the middle of the day, the warning tonight from oakland police. and the federal eviction moratorium expires tomorrow, but there's some good news for californians. definitely first world problems, probably upper first world. >> and a couple cashes in, the six figure payday for some san francisco tenants. i'm meteorologist drew tuma. we're tracking cooler weather heading into the weekend. we'll have the numbers in the accuweather forecast ahead. that thanks, drew. all that's ahead. but first here's a look at

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. ♪ new video from the east bay

it's not uncommon for a landlord to buy out tenants, but someone paid nearly a half

million dollars for a building on laurel street in san francisco to be vacated. the couple had lived in their rent controlled apartment for decades. quick look found the market rate for a unit in the building was $25,000 per month, yeah. there's still the issue of getting kicked out, but the dollar figure is a head scratcher. >> definitely first world problems, probably upper first world. >> getting kicked out of your home is getting kicked out of your home, doesn't matter what you pay. >> the landlord said he did not intend to drive the renter away. some tenants filed a lawsuit. larry is deliberately in front of the camera now. >> the right one? >> i love what you guys have done here, wow, a lot of lights. joints and astros battle to the top two teams in baseball. this is what happens when they play a four-hour game awaiting the arrival

need to reckon with. so, i think art could do a lot of good. >> i think the pandemic really forced this museum to reimagine its role as a place for healing, as a place for fighting back, and as a place for bringing people together. ♪ >> the asian art museum is a place where asian art and culture comes to life for you. from ancient masterpieces to the cutting-edge expression of contemporary artists, all the experience you get will be very engaging and relevant to you. >> i think asian art museum really centers around this idea of connection, connecting ancient with the present and the future, but also connecting here and there. for many of us, as the first-generation immigrant or people who come to this country

second generation, third generation, whether they're asian or not, this idea of being here and there is constant. >> this museum has been a leading platform for engaging american public, particularly our own community, but as well as visitors from all over the world. we started with an institution primarily featuring traditional asian art to now we are really expanding to 21st century. i think the contemporary is our mind-set, as well as our methodology. well, our visitors come to the museum to see the inaugural exhibition in our special exhibition pavilion, and that's "teamlab: continuity." and that is a cutting-edge expression of digital art in the world. teamlab is based in japan, but i think they accomplished everything that we find that's particularly attractive.

>> in a typical museum exhibition, you see sort of different rooms with, like, one work, painting here and sculpture here. but in our exhibition, that space is loosely defined into smaller areas. and then all the elements that appeared from each area move between each area and then intermingle together. you will be completely immersed in the relationship that those elements, such as crows, butterflies, or fish, form with each other. so, whenever you touch the flowers, whenever you hit the crows, then you get a different sound effect. so, you literally see how you're influencing the artwork or those visual elements through your gestures and presence. >> we hope that we'll draw a large crowd and that, at the same time, that this large crowd will also benefit those other artists who are lesser known, and then we introduce them to the public, and this is equally important to us, as well. they can just get lost in the
