redwood state park partially reopened to the public for the first time in two years the czu lightning complex left. it badly burned abc 7 news reporter. zach fuentes took a trip to the park today. these are some of the first steps taken by civilian visitors to california's oldest state park in two years. it's completely different than before one of the first visitors was matt ryan and his family they live in nearby ben lomond and just like the park were impacted by the czu lightning complex fire after a difficult two years. ryan says, he looks at the parks reopening as a sign of encouragement. we've turned a corner maybe. hopefully the path of devastation left behind by the fire can be seen on the way into the park. the august 2020 fire tore through miles of trees and leveled buildings many of the trees destroyed in the fire included douglas firs, but not only have so many of the parks iconic redwood survived. there's also new growth something park officials tell me is a testament to nature's resiliency redwood trees have an amazing ability to regenerate so you'll see them sprouting from

cases either probable or confirmed nearly every bay area county has reported at least one case of monkey pox this map shows how widespread it is the new data shows the latinx community in san francisco being disproportionately affected by monkeypox and 7 news reporter who's pena spoke community leaders who are urging city officials to change their strategy loose in order to reach latinos more effectively. that's right, dan if we think back to the beginning of the covid-19 pandemic latinos were disproportionately impacted by this virus for multiple reasons, including unclear communication poor language-based services and supply now community leaders are also listing those same reasons as key contributors of what's happening now with the monkeypox virus. despite latinos making up 15% of san francisco's population the latest monkeypox data shows a 30% of cases in this city are among this group. so for us that's another alarm that sounding in the community

that we're responding to for over two years the latino task force gained. they could cover. test spread this proportionally among the lgbtq latino population. is to begin vaccinating for monkeypox at their covid sites, it is disheartening it is, you know a call to action but because we did well in the response to covid we have the infrastructure to do well to respond to how monkeypox is affecting our community. the latino task force is asking san francisco's department of public health to give them monkey pox vaccines, but the supply is limited. we also like an undocumented population. community and sometimes they just don't want to speak out and they don't want to reach out for help the ceo of san francisco's aids foundation is advocating to not only increase monkeypox vaccination among the latinx community, but also testing and

treatment public health crises. we need to be ensuring that we're using the appropriate equitable lens to ensure that information education and awareness is available in languages as if aids foundation waitlist for monkeypox vaccines is now over 5,000 people supervisor rafael mandelman criticized the government's response to this crisis. they seem to have done the bare minimum being dragged along each step of the way and turned out to be a and what turned out to be a woefully inadequate response where we have significant community spread. and when it comes to supply the city of san francisco has requested 35,000 doses of the monkeypox vaccine and received over 7,000 the san francisco. aids foundation is now planning a spanish town hall for next week to better inform the latinx community loose peña abc 7 news.
