californians 12 and older have received at least one shot, 45% of californians are now fully vaccinated, but if you think about it, that's 58 million doses that were administered in the state of california, pretty much when the real incentive, the only incentive was protection against getting covid. >> all right, kris, so when we win, do we have to tell people? >> reporter: law camera, you have to tell me, but you don't have to tell anybody else. and the state will also know, so you will have to pay your taxes, but certainly we don't have to talk about taxes, so good luck to both of you. i know that vaccines, i believe in the science and my two girls are getting their shots today so maybe a college fund. >> you're putting them in the drawing, exactly. all right, good luck to you. you have to tell me, too, kris, you have to tell me, too. >> reporter: thanks. >> 6:02. so we've got more details for you, vaccine rates in rural counties in northern california

are falling behind the rest of the state. that's leading to cases to rise some places. "l.a. times" analyzed the lowes vaccination rates were likely to have higher recent case rates. health officials in those counties say many residents are hesitant to get vaccinated. tahama say only 25% residents received a vaccination. napa county health leaders are reporting their first covid-related death of someone who was fully vaccinated. the woman who died was over 65 years old, she also had underlying medical conditions and had been in the hospital for some time. the u.s. surpasses 600,000 covid deaths. that's close to the population of denver, colorado. according to the report last month, day compiled by johns

experts are sayive and intensive drought so far this century. >> the dry conditions are completing northern california reservoirs. right now they should be near capacity as the sun is melting the winter snowpack, but with barely any rain this year, reservoirs are about 50% lower than where they should be. state leaders say some places may see record lows by late august or september. if you want to see how the ongoing drought is taking the toll on california, head to our website, nbcbayarea.com, see some of these really hard to believe images whereof we are right now. let's continue talking about the drought, drought-like conditions, no rain, so dry out there. it's so concerning with fire season, we're now in it, vianey. >> the sierra snowpack is completed, about average, that typically helps boost some of our critical

things are. the red is extreme and this sort of red color is exceptional, which is the worst category on the drought index. so let's take a look at how the bay area reservoir levels are doing. again, the lack of sierra snowpack in addition to the lack of rain, we have about 26.9% of historical average for local reservoir, including lexington and coyote as well. this gives you an idea. this impacts our fire season, could mean water shortages and restrictions for the future. mike, how are the roads? >> looking fine. i'm concerned about that drought, the numbers are worse than i've seen in a long time, as you said. looking out to the road wei 6:0 green sensors around the bay. getaway traffic at any time the afternoon traffic kicks in, 2:30 towards sunol and of course today going to really build in

benefits for we're not going to turn our backs on our fellow americans. >>'s we were talking about yesterday the unemployments checks are big failed to explain why every american who is not working chooses or doesn't choose not to work. it could be a lack of child care as well, likely a very big factor. futures call for a slightly higher open on the stock market. if the jobs number had been higher it's possible investors would have been alarmed, worried fed would speed up its move to back away from supporting the economy. nissan says it had to delay its electric car the aria because they can't get enough chips to build it. it was supposed to go on sale mid 2021. it is mid 2021. facebook changing the rules again, saying it's going to treat politicians posts the same as regular people. if they spread dangerous lies or incite riots that violates facebook rules, their posts will be removed. earlier facebook said it wouldn't police politicians

the recommendation, workers in workplace settings could shed the mask beginning june 15th. that's when the state fully reopens. businesses would have to first document that all employees have been vaccinated and that no one is displaying covid-19 symptoms. >> if enough people are vaccinated, i guess it makes sense to make that an option for any workplace. >> well, if everyone is vaccinated, then i don't think they need to wear a mask. i think that's all right. >> there will be tons of offices where if everyone is vaccinated, there would be no problem with working inside or at outdoor events of 10,000 people or more given masks for volunteering use until july 31st. i listened to part of the board

meeting call which was held virtually yesterday. a number of people, including business owners, spoke up during that call. one said they are tired of being told what to do. given the low rates of infection, another expressed concern this proposal could pose an unreasonable burden. reporting live, bob redell, "today in the bay." those mask changes are just one of the changes when the state reopens. businesses would no longer have to follow capacity limits. social distancing would not be required anymore, and as we just mentioned, you won't have to wear your masks in most indoor settings. some california restaurants may be toasting governor newsom's extension of outdoor dining orders. that's because he extended california's cocktailsill be ab provide cocktails to go oropens.

he also wants cities and counties to have their own say when it comes to indoor dining. he wants this to continue at least through the end of the year. if you have trouble keeping track of the changes, that's understandable. we have it explained to you on nbc10.com. >> at least three people were shot. police are still looking for the shooter. the lives of the nine men who died nine days ago are all being remembered in countless ways. last night in san jose, the vta board held its first meeting since the rampage. board chair glenn hendricks broke down a few times, sharing quick but personal stories about each victim through the years. the employees were shuttled in

police say they want everyone to be on alert, don't be distracted by your phone. the press democrat reports california's finance watchdog has opened an investigation after an anonymous complaint about the mayor. the complaint surrounds how he spent $12,000 in donations and it comes as the paper publishes new allegations made by a town councilmember, implying he tried to buy her out of the race in 2020 which he declined to exit. he offered to donate to her choice of charities which experts actually say is legal. he did not respond to the paper's request for a comment. new delays for caltrain and its plan to convert to an electric train. the electrification process started in 2017.

by another car in orange. his mother was driving him to his kindergarten class and the shots were fired through the car. police say a white gulf sports wagon was what the suspect was driving in this shooting. they're down playing a popular theory about how covid-19 spread. the debate is whether it got out from a lab in wuhan, china and not an animal. the lab was more of a conspiracy theory. here's what anthony fauci was telling willie geist. >> we don't know and we still don't know what the argument is. if you look at things historically and the way things rolled out, we all felt, and still do, in fact, that it is more likely to be a natural jumping of species from an

animal reservoir to a human. >> we should reiterate fauci received and didn't actually send any of the e-mails. the president will speak about this morning's jobs report shortly. >> scott gruden, the unemployment rate is still quite a bit. >> 559,000 jobs added in may. that unemployment rate falls from 6.1% to 5.8%. the president will speak from delaware. the bidens are home for the first lady's birthday, which was yesterday. they'll return to washington later this afternoon so the president can continue his talks with republicans over the infrastructure plan. president biden agreed to new compromises, cutting more than a trillion from his very first plan in order to win gop support. president biden is set on passing a bipartisan bill. now, he may not have a choice. democrat joe manchin of west virginia has indicated he'll vote against infrastructure if
