he also said one potential factor in comparing case rates is whether san francisco is testing at a higher rate. >> we are testing, but it is not like this is an artifact of more tests. this is the virus. >> dr. green says what is helping san francisco now is that the more dority has -- the majority has embraced the vaccines. but embers continue to go up. larry: i am hesitant to know what the reaction from viewers is going to be, but based on the increase in covid rates in san francisco, could we be headed to a potential lockdown? >> according to dr. green, lockdowns are to preserve the capacity of hospitals and treat those seriously ill. we are seeing even their that she even though there is an increase, they are preventing

hospitals from being overwhelmed. they say if a new variant more powerful than delta emerges, lockdown could be a possibility. larry: let's hope that's not the case. >> dr. mark galli was on gma three. he was asked about san francisco offering booster shots, as san francisco general is giving those shots to people who received johnson & johnson. >> we are taking the lead from fda and cdc. we are not encouraging counties to be adding additional shots, but we are watching it closely. we know there is concern about waning immunity and for certain populations, especially our oldest, we are asking people to hold off until we can clear instructions and get a closer look at the signs and evidence before we have another shot advised. >> he says getting as many people around the world

the spike in violence is holding the city hostage with citizens living in a state of fear. he called federal agencies like the fbi and atf to help in crime reducing efforts. there have been 78 homicides in oakland this year, on pace to be the deadliest in a decade. larry: it has been six months since the new police chief took over the oakland police department. laurent armstrong sat down with an interview about the challenges he is prioritizing. leslie joins us live with more. >> the the the the the the the t has heart. he loves oakland. he was born and raised there. he has dedicated decades of service to oakland police department. right now, he told me he is worried. >> what keeps me awake at night

is the continuous gunfire. >> chief armstrong is awash in problems. homelessness, homicide, assaults on politicians, journalists and the elderly. >> the challenges with a high level of crime, 78 homicides, the number of calls for service we are receiving on a daily basis, we are unable to meet the demand. there are two narratives, there is a narrative with some politicians that community does not want to see police officers. but when you go into the community, when you talk to those impacted by crime, they want police officers, they just want good police officers. we have asked them to continue to engage in a different way to build relationships. >>. you have officers quitting and leaving? >> it is hard trying to retain officers. this is a difficult job, period.

the toughest city in the bay area, some would say in california. some people want to make this a political issue, for me it is not a political issue. nobody wants to continue to see this level of violence. that is a starting point, that we all get fed up with seeing and experiencing violence everyday. we can't prevent our way out of it, but we can't arrest our way out of it. it needs to be a balanced approach but you've got to have resources to respond. if you don't, you send the message to those that want to commit crimes that oakland is the place to do it. that is the narrative we want to fight against. oakland is not the place where you can come to commit crime. there is going to be accountability. >> he believes that pandemic has magnified the problems. not jailing people due to covid in jails and prisons.

there is also growing frustration on the streets of oakland because of the pandemic. oakland police are not able to respond to calls about people not wearing masks, or other covid related issues. the chief did estimate for me that about 80% of the police force is currently vaccinated. larry: what about the effects of the new police budget which reduces police academies, which means fewer officers? >> i asked about that. right now, oakland has 704 officers. before this budget, it was 792. they have 57 officer positions frozen. the chief put this in perspective, he said 10 years ago there were more officers on the streets of oakland than there are right now. remember, the city has grown by 40,000 residents.

his message today was one of not defunding the police, but depoliticize in the police. leslie brinkley, abc seven. kristen: a man suspected of assaulting a young girl inside her home is in custody. police a 24-year-old dupree hornsby attacked a girl in her home on denson drive friday morning before being chased away. he was arrested. detective say hornsby had no prior association with the victim. he is charged with eight counts of felony sex crimes against a child under 10. larry: progress for crews battling the dixie fire burning mostly butte county. containment grew from 21% to 25%. this is the second largest in state history, burning nearly 488,000 acres and destroying 600 structures.
