affect anyone else. it is really disappointing that it is happening in her hometown. >> unfortunately, we were in the wrong place, at the right time. i mean, people have commented that if we were a second faster or slower in our car, how could that have changed? we can't think too much about the what ifs, it is just where we're at. >> you could say that we literally dodged a bullet. leslie: in the east, leslie brinkley, abc 7 news. karina: you heard kinnaman mentioned the little boy who was shot and killed, his name was jasper wu. on a saturday afternoon he was in his car seat in his mother's car when a stray bullet struck him on southbound 880 near 2nd street in oakland. the case remains unsolved, as do dozens of other freeway shootings. -hour ride team dug into her frequently these shootings happened and what is being done

remainder, and why now. lyanne: i think the message the health department wants to convey here is, in case you have any doubts, in case you're wondering, we are not requiring students or staff to wear our mask. but they say that as long as the state safety measures continue to be in place, covid is something we have to learn to live with, that is what they are saying. at the same time, health officials are saying, don't let your guard down. the state health department believes, quote, "california schools can manage this disease in sustainable and adaptive manners. that includes keeping up with vaccinations, testing, and the continued use of air filters at schools. >> last fall we purchased thousands of portable air cleaners for our classrooms and schools. we will continue to monitor those, change the filters if needed, and following health guidance so that students can learn in person. lyanne: san francisco unified and other school districts in the bay area lifted the mask

mandate in spring, and to strongly recommend wearing them in the classroom and other indoor spaces. the san francisco department of public health is strongly recommending people wear our mask right now indoors and in public settings. >> still going to wear it indoors for protection from covid. >> i think we're at the point where people are tired of wearing masks. lyanne: that she and her family will still wear them. >> we have always close together. so if you like it is safer to wear our mask. >> vaccinated people can still get covid. still wear our mask if you can get inside and outside. lyanne: there is always a concern that there could be an outbreak when students return to school. >> throughout this pandemic we have seen the guidelines continue to shift, so we will continue to pivot as needed. lyanne: the health department is recommending every student and staff get tested before going back to school next month. and teachers and staff are required to get vaccinated, but

the mandate has been delayed for students until july of next year. larry: i am almost afraid to ask, just because the past 2.5 years, everybody is making their own rules and they are constantly changing, but the health are not recurring kids and staff to wear our mask, but can individual district and force that anyway? lee anne -- lyanne: absolutely. schools are -- states are allowing not only the districts, but counties and even individual schools to maintain mask mandates if they so choose. larry: so you have to check with the principals and school officials. lyanne: right, they know best. larry: by the way, lyanne has been reporting on bay area school issues for decades, that is wh. , you can reach her online. nd twitter handles are on your screen right now. karina: coming up, a new health

threat. familiar worries when it comes to monkeypox in the bay area. larry: next, we talk with insider phil matier. there is political controversy involving governor newsom. karina: and tonight we will hear from michael finney with any warning about scammers using zahl pop with transfers so fast they can't be traced. >> i am meteorologist sandhya patel. slick roads and this is john. he hasn't worked this hard to only get this far with his cholesterol. taken with a statin, leqvio can lower bad cholesterol and keep it low with two doses a year. side effects were

injection site reaction, joint pain, urinary tract infection, diarrhea, chest cold, pain in legs or arms, and shortness of breath. with leqvio, lowering cholesterol becomes just one more thing life throws your way. ask your doctor about leqvio. lower. longer. leqvio.

larry: he is on vacation, and even that has political ramifications. governor newsom is vacationing with his family in montana. another states california has banned state-funded travel. karina: joining us now is abc7news insider phil matier. we have some questions for you. the governor is using his own money for the trip, a personal vacation. so what is the problem? phil: the problem is perception. here is the deal. california has barred state to travel to 22 states across the country for various reasons, including their anti-lgbtq stance on issues. the official ban on official travel. the reason they are doing that is to make the point that you should steer clear of these states because of their discriminatory policies. so gavin newsom is not violating the law of the ban, but the question is, is he violating the spirit of the ban, a ban that he

supports and vocally supported recently on an ad in florida where he slammed that state and that state's government for not being up into the lgbtq communities and other things? larry: is it going to hurt him long-term? looks like he has bigger political inspirations. phil: i wouldn't say it hurts him in the sense of getting arrested for drunk driving, or hurt him in the sense of being impeached, but it is a reinforcement of the perception of gavin newsom that he says one thing and he does another. more specifically tells you to do one thing and he does another. we first saw it in the legendary visit to the "french laundry," which like it or not has defined him in part nationally. he is a charismatic and forward-thinking guy that could go places, but he also has this part of him to make news whether he likes it or not, especially on slow news days

when we pick it up and the nation picks it up. larry: do all roads lead back to the french laundry for governor newsom? phil: once you have an image like that, he went to one of the most exclusive restaurants for a party when he was telling everyone else to stay away, even though he followed the protocols, it is the image. like it or not, the first impression lasts. do all roads lead back there? no but all, hunched lines do, and that could be worse. karina: let's turn to some local politics. where is san francisco with replacing chesa boudin as district attorney? any signs on who might be chosen? phil: mayor london breed is spending time at city hall interviewing candidates and talking to constituent groups. she is looking for somebody who cannot only run the office but has prosecutorial experience. she is also looking for someone who could get reelected in the

next time around and that gets down to about four or five candidates, among them the san francisco supervisor and former deputy da of contra costa county. we have got brooke jenkins, former homicide head here in san francisco. judge eric fleming. and nancy, prior to district attorney she was a candidate. we will see how it shakes down. whoever goes ahead, they will be in the spotlight. larry: the investment in a couple of days? phil: i believe it will be there tomorrow or friday. larry: thank you, phil. karina: there is a growing demand for vaccines and tests not for coronavirus, for monkeypox. four local counties have possible or confirmed cases -- santa cruz, santa clara, alameda and san francisco. the city has the highest number, 40. and there are concerns that there are enough vaccines. reporter melanie woodrow has a

story. melanie: health officials say cases of monkeypox in the city are growing. >> in san francisco we have doubled cases in the last week or so, probably seeing the tip of the iceberg of people actually imposed and or have disease. melanie: making the need for testing and vaccinations all the more critical. the cdc and labcorp announced that labcorp will begin monkeypox testing, doubling nationwide testing capacity. labcorp will offer testing at its largest facility in the u.s., and will accept specimens from anywhere in the country. it expects to be able to perform 10,000 tests per week. melanie: it democratizes testing. meantime, the san francisco aids foundation says the demand for vaccines is outpacing the availability of vaccines. this is the ceo of the san francisco aids foundation. he says in june, the foundation received 60 doses of the vaccine, not enough to provide vaccines for everyone calling and asking for one.

>> the first day alone be received 500 calls and have more than 300 individuals nor waiting list. in order to best triage those who are calling in, we are at this time only able to really help those who have been exposed or believe they have been exposed. melanie: the vaccine supply is controlled at the federal level, which in turn supplies each state. >> we are pushing the san francisco aids foundation to get at least 1000 doses in the next 30 days. melanie: he says the san francisco aids foundation is uniquely positioned to reach communities who may be at higher risk for monkeypox and so in ways that are affirming and compassionate. >> i am urging everyone not to stigmatize this disease. right now it is in one population, but in the arc of monkeypox, it affects all segments of the population equally. melanie: in san francisco, melanie woodrow, abc 7 news. karina: monkeypox is rarely fatal. the most obvious symptom is a

rash but patients can get a and fever and chills. the illness typically lasts 2-4 weeks. people who don't have the symptoms cannot spread the virus to others. it is spread through close physical contact, including cuddling, and sex. there are no treatments, but there are two vaccines. larry: sandhya patel is here with the weather forecast. humidity, almost down? sandhya: almost there. over producer kate says she doesn't like it, i get it. it is definitely sticky and frizzy whether which we are not used to it here in the bay area. blame it on this trough, you can see the winds knowing of of the ocean and blowing towards the land and when you look at those ocean temperatures, they are in the upper 50's. point arena, san francisco.
