out sick, twice the number the district has been seeing every day this week. >> we had almost a quarter of our student body absent on monday. reporter: this teacher is dealing with the reality of covid in schools. she and others participated in a sick out over the lack of proper safety measures in schools. >> it feels like a wildfire and we are trying to get ahead of it. we need to be able to communicate. we are on the front lines. we are with students every day. >> is that where we are at?

mandatory. i want to add that los angeles unified has mandated testing for students. the school district called today's sick out unapproved, unauthorized and technically illegal. when asked what repercussions there might be, the district said they would deal with that later. dan: bigger fish to fry at the moment. anyone coming to work in person is feeling the pressure of potentially getting sick. that creates greater anxiety. how are those deep in the trenches dealing with that stress? reporter: thanks for asking. besides the teachers having to take on new operant -- new responsibilities, let's talk about those that work in the school office. i spoke candidly with one person who now has to figure out where to put the substitutes when the teacher calls in sick, has to deal with sending kids home,

calling families when a kid appears sick, handing out test kits and making sure people are following safety protocols and dealing with everyone else's fears and anxiety. they are being spread thin. let me say to them tonight, we feel for you guys and we thank you for what you do. that is what i have to say. dan: thank you for saying it. kristen: stanford university is further delaying students' return to campus. undergrad classes will be phased in. those classes will be remote until january 20 fourth. an additional week. some classes like labs will still be in person. dan: santa clara university has pushed back its in-person learning. classes could remain virtual until february. kristen: in san jose, the oak grove school district will begin an outdoor masking policy.

bay area school districts but appearance here remain mixed on the decision. >54% of the campus community voted against the change but the policy passed. >> i feel like we missed the mark i not doing it in the beginning of the year and to keep reeling things in for kids when cases have not been shown to spread at school is really difficult for me as a parent to understand. >> i'm going to trust the school district leaders to decide the safest measure for our kids. so far, i have been happy with the safety measures taken. i feel comfortable following their lead with this enforced mask policy for outdoors. reporter: the policy will remain for the rest of the year. in san jose, dustin dorsey, abc 7 news. dan: there could be a lot of delays. starting today. there has been a spike in cases

>> you cannot make 100% of your people happy. i think this will spark a second wave of the great resignation. as individuals come to terms with the fact that they have a preference that is not in line with their employer. reporter: as job vacancies grow, employers are revising their hiring requirements to fill them. >> you know what? if you have the base skills and a desire to learn, come in and we will train you. reporter: that opens the door to employees that may not have those skills. >> folks will have higher demands at the negotiation table , the cost of living adjustments will have to be made. those are always passed on to the consumer end of the customer. and so, we are entering a spiral. reporter: that could lead to higher inflation and prices for

everyone. david louis, abc 7 news. dan: if you want to stay up-to-date on the latest covid headlines or if you have questions about the vaccines, we have that information readily available for you at abc 7/news. kristen: three men were convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison for chasing and killing ahmaud arbery. the judge said there would be no chance of parole for the father and son. their neighbor, william brian was sentenced to life with the possibility of parole. dan: the sister of a federal security officer shot and killed in oakland in 2020 has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against facebook for its alleged role in the shooting. villainy woodrow spoke with her today. reporter: on may 29, sergeant and another person drove to the oakland protest in the wake of george floyd's

seek to shield themselves. >> they are an active participant and they are recruiting people to come onto their sites and once they are on their site, they use a lot of different algorithms that will bring like-minded individuals together. reporter: david green says lawsuits like this one can be difficult to win. >> it is hard from a first amendment perspective and a statutory perspective to hold these internet platforms responsible. reporter: in an emailed statement, a facebook spokesperson said, we ban more than 1000 militarized social comments from our platform. these claims are without legal basis. underwood's sister says she wants her brother to be remembered for his heart of gold. >> my brother stood for something which was honesty and integrity, is sense of community. reporter: the criminal attorney

killed him, isn't it -- isn't there? reporter: where a man frustrated by his lack of opportunity in raisin in the sun. >> i say, yes sir and no sir. reporter: or a police a police a forced to work with the racist southern sheriff in in the heat of the night. >> what did they call you up there? >> they called me mr. tibbs. reporter: they also called him sir. his dignified presence on screen opened the door for other black actors. after accepting an honorary oscar in 2002, he said he did not try to set the pace for others, his work was a reflection of his values. >> if someone saw that and felt they were of use to them, then i am blessed. reporter: from a childhood of

>> building a better bay area, moving forward and finding solutions. this is abc 7 news. kristen: covid-19 cases continue to climb. shorting the timing of a moderna booster shot from six months to

five months. they recommended that for pfizer last week. the mode ceo says he believes a fourth shot of the vaccine will be needed in the fall. experts working alongside dr. anthony fauci say they should know more next month. >> i think for us, we want to see if the immuno responses to omicron is better than the ancestral strain. kristen: the doctor says a virus is not going away but we have tools in place and we should not be afraid of covid-19 like we were in 2020. dan: dr. patel is a key member of our vaccine team and he is live today. >> great to be with you. >>good to be here. dan: we saw those numbers rising. it is some cause for concern. how concerned should we be? >> as we see the numbers rise,

you are still going to see a small percentage of people wind up in the hospital. the big thing that is happening is the exposure to people who are needed to run our city and take care of people in hospitals and as emergency medical services. that is concerning. dan: as you know, several of the president's former advisers leave there needs to be a new strategy. what does that look like? >> i 100% agree. i applaud that. the new strategy would look like -- what will we do in terms of living with covid-19 and no longer basing our decisions based on case numbers but hospitalizations? this is a process of moving towards something that is endemic. the first thing they will be able to do is keep schools open and there should be daily

briefings and transparency with our public health officials and the cdc. this is a good step in the right direction in terms of communication. dan: as you know, dr. patel, a few months ago we thought we were coming out of the woods and then omicron showed up. is this something that we will have to live with like a weird cold? will we have to find different ways to adapt and live with it like we do cold and flu? >> i think it is the latter. i think hopefully what happens that omicron or any other variant will fade into the background as we get more vaccines and natural immunity. we have to see the surges not take down our health structure. every single year, the flu and the common cold fill hospital capacity, it does not wreck our lives. we are in a much better arena

now with respect to prevention and treatment. if there is a future variant, hopefully it does not have nearly the same grip as omicron has. dan: is the covid vaccine going to be something we have to do every year? what about a fourth booster? >> it is entirely possible. we don't want to say yes right now. a lot of us roll our eyes when the pharmaceutical ceos come out and say, you may need a fourth shot when the scientific experts say, we will know more at the end of the month. why not wait until the end of the month to make that statement? the reality is, only 30% of americans who are eligible for the booster have gotten it and about 30%-40% of americans are still not fully vaccinated with the primary series. that is who we should be focusing on.

dan: is that just marketing and pushing sales? >> i did not say that but that is how it is being interpreted. it adds to mistrust. dan: thank you. kristen: the supreme court heard arguments today on a challenge to the biden administration's vaccine requirements. the conservative majority appeared skeptical of the policy requiring employers with 100 or more workers to require vaccinations. restasis seemed more open to a separate mandate for health-care care workers. president biden is set to deliver the state of the union in march. he accepted nancy pelosi's invitation today. usually, the speech happens in january or february but this year it will occur march 1. dan: more

kristen: time now for the four at 4:00. new york could be the first state to hold fashion brands accountable to climate change. lawmakers introduced a bill today for any apparel brand selling in new york with a revenue of at least 100 million dollars. they would be required to map 50% of their supply chain and provide reporting on emissions, water, water, and more.

if they fail to meet the requirements, they will be fined 2% of their annual revenue. i kind of like this idea appeared for so long, fashion has been considered disposable. i would like to see what they do here with sustainability. >> this is just in new york, right? i wonder how this will affect other states across the country like california. think it is a good idea. kristen: new york is the fashion center so many -- so maybe others will follow suit. mike: did they give them any other alternative? we will all pay for climate change eventually and you know they will push that 2% markup under the price so even if it is just new york, we could pay here because of the increase in price. my third thought is they are already using this in cars. they are using recycled material

and a lot of the flooring and the seat so maybe this is just a trend. dan: i think it will continue to move to other industries. there are so many other industries that can be helped in this regard. easy gap is joining forces with balenciega. they are teaming up with this is the jacket that jacket t during the preorders going for $200. like an updated puffy coat. $200. i don't pay a lot of attention to that fashion stuff that is super cutting edge. what do you think? >> i don't either. that is $200? i bet i would look really good in it. [laughter] >> that is what matters.

kristen: someone posted that on twitter and said they walk around in it feeling like they look rich. >> regal? kristen: no, rich. dan: it is a good-looking coat. so many -- there is so much crossover now with celebrities and brands. >> everyone is spreading out their tentacles and trying to get into all of these different markets and money sources and everyone is becoming a product amongst themselves to push these things. dan: we have our work to do. kristen: grocery shopping is going to get easier at least the part about putting away the groceries. walmart is expanding its in-home service and will now deliver your groceries directly to your refrigerator. dry goods will be left on the counter. this only works with web

connected locks. they will wear body cameras to record the entire time that they are in your home. i don't know. even if the fridge is in my garage, i would not feel comfortable. dan: we are becoming more lazy all the time but someone with a camera in your house, i don't someone wandering around my home with a camera. and during covid, we have all tried delivery at home with groceries. it is a convenient idea but can we not even put it away now? >> i go back to the movie wall-e where we are all getting more sedentary and atrophied if we don't even put our own groceries away. dan: how is this for a sweet and savory combination? a hot dog with froot loops cereal.

it is a reality for houston rockets fans tonight. this may sound strange but they are not the first pro sports team to serve this. the cleveland guardians formerly known as the indians have had this available from a cleveland restaurant called happy dog. that could not sound less appetizing. you go to sports venues for a living. >> when i heard that story i thought, nope. maybe for a story or a challenge but i will definitely not go outside section 114. dan: maybe for a bet. will you try it? >> if kristen buys it, i might take a bite of edge. dan: you need to save your money to buy that jacket. kristen: who came up with this? who decided to com com more creative hotdog -- yes, i

will put froot loops on edge. >> now, if we could get nathan's to put their hotdogs on that and we could get joey chestnut. dan: no to our producer for tasting that. kristen: we need them to do that say hello to 2022 with xfinity and you'll get fast and reliable internet for only nineteen ninety-nine a month for twelve months. plus, you can get twelve times the speed for the same price
