6:13 pm
quality control plant this facility serves over 200,000 people across the bay area. but since the pandemic they've been doing more than clean millions of gallons of wastewater a day. they are playing a key role. acting covid a lot of people are using rapid tests at home and those test results are not reported to the local health department. so there's no way of them knowing how many people actually have covid and the wastewater gives us a really true picture according to the cdc people infected with covid can shed the virus in their feces, even if they don't have symptoms. that's why this has become an effective indicator of covid transmission. there are two million copies of the virus in every gram of wastewater, but once it gets here, it's dead and no longer infectious because covid is neutralized at this point plant operators can collect samples without the need of ppe around 3 pm the collection begins. the sample is later.
6:14 pm
unplaced in this fridge in the meantime a group of careers are driving to wastewater plants to pick up samples throughout the state. one of them is saul hernandez. this is his route the next plant. i'm going to collect this babies. so here is the date and the time all the samples end up at verily we got to see first hand how the scientific process works. so the first sample will come in looking something like this you can see it's extra of liquid and solid. we do is then centrifugate so spin it at a super super high speed many thousands of revolutions per minute and what we get left is just the solid portion that we're going to actually use for the testing bradley white leaps the team at verily the processes over 30 samples a day from across the country and 16 from california wastewater sites and inside this fridge. they have samples from millions of people from across the bay area stretching from gilroy to san francisco. you see here, san jose alto you
6:15 pm
see over there stanford the process to detect how much covid is in a community is meticulous surprisingly. it only requires one sample per plant and about 0.3 grams of solid from that sample. so it makes the nice noise to let you know so this data represents how many people it depends on the sewer shed. our largest sewer shed in los angeles. there are four million people contributing to that sewer shed. so we're able to gain this. nation about everyone within that sewer shed from this small sample that we take to the solid just this. 4 million people yes. wow. depth is to detach the virus from everything else those ball bearings actually physically disrupt the virus from the sample. so they'll free it up and then the virus can also be encapsulated and that liquid that we put in there actually breaks those encapsulations and freeze the virus so that we can detect it in the next step of the process these machines turn
6:16 pm
to samples into liquid form and one of the final steps lights out the one that has covid if there's virus in there the droplet will fluoresce. there we can infer how many people in a community have source copy too this entire process in the lab takes about 10 hours including sequencing for specific variants. operation that verily's co-founder jessica mega says, it's key to give health departments enough time to respond before a search wastewater gives us an early warning signal. we don't want to wait until people get sick. they then become symptomatic and then get tested with wastewater. you can get ahead of that. understanding what's happening in a community understanding which variance are most prevalent all of the virus now is detached from the solid and in the liquid portion, but years before wastewater samples were processed at this scale stanford professor alexandria beam at the vision the beginning of the pandemic we started working on studying sars kobe 2 and
6:17 pm
wastewater a team of research students started collecting wastewater samples from campus in early 2020. that's now expanded to eating the super coronavirus alert network a project that analyzes and releases data for 11 water treatment plants in california. we developed the measurement techniques and the technology and we needed to scale it. we talked to the public health department pretty much on a daily basis. this is how they detected omicron more than a week before clinical samples confirmed this variant in the bay area and now they're focused on the next one. have started to see now be a dot 4 coming up in the wastewater. and so we'll be watching that closely. so next time you think about how covid data is collected. just know it's one flush away. it's ready to go. thank you. have a great day in san francisco loose peña abc 7 news. and let's get an update now on the breaking news.

6:24 pm
computer and what we're gonna do is have my company send you a 1900 dollar check. she received this check and deposited it at patelco credit union. the 1900 dollars showed up right here in her account her balance more than double. he tells me okay now i want you to put this person's name on your cell. she sent nine hundred dollars. roselle and another 1,000 in gift cards supposedly to pay for that computer and i knew immediately once i had done that the money would be gone, but it's their money, so i wasn't too worried about that. --. he thought the 1900 dollars she saw in her account would cover the cost except the money wasn't really there the job was fake. the check was fake. so patelco took that nineteen hundred dollars back out of her account leaving her 830 dollars in the red. oh, we're so sorry this happened to you, but now the bank was emptying my bank account and i had nothing else to live on. felt like i had been victimized twice. she didn't understand why

6:34 pm
in a very very dangerous area pg&e's computers flag trouble at 6:48 am presumably the time the tree fell but it took almost 10 hours for a pg&e employee to finally get there when troubleman scott. arrived. he said he noticed the tree and a small fire the first flames of the dixie fire the trouble man's lawyers point out. he risked his own safety trying to put it out prosecutors didn't charge campbell. they say pg&e set him up to fail it took pg&e about four hours to even give the job to campbell before that. pg&e had assigned it to the wrong maintenance yard. they basically wasted about three and a half hours doing nothing. others at pg&e could have prevented this fire that day 94 miles away in this unmarked pg&e building operators thought about turning off the power but decided not to they'd gotten up
6:35 pm
there earlier if they did used any of the tools that were available to them or just simply cutting off the power to that sectional line until they could get there. would have been no fire. so how many times does it have to happen? the year before dixie pg&e pleaded guilty to crimes for sparking. the campfire pg&e's criminal neglect of a power line killed people in and around paradise campfire. we put our foot down because that's different. it's people died. you can't just have a civil settlement pg&e pleaded guilty to 84 manslaughters making pg a felon a killer. the dixie fires sp i stopped the highway in the same canyon butte county district attorney. mike ramsey says his team could have proved pg&e guilty again. there's value in calling a crime of crime, correct. that was the thing you had to give up this time at this point. yes. and the das of the other four
