hi, everyone. i'm kate snow. >> nbc news daily starts right now. today, monday, may 1, 2023. manhunt. the search for a man accused of murdering five of his neighbors intensifies.

the new reward now being offered. historic collapse. jpmorgan chase to the rescue after the failure of first republic bank. what it means for customercustod the ongoing turmoil in the banking industry. and a 2-year-old daughter of a tampa bay buccaneers linebacker drowned. how to protect kids. countdown to shutdown. a potential writer strike now just hours away. what the walkout means for your favorite tv shows. we begin this hour though with the intense manhunt under way in texas right now. the search is on for this man, francisco oropeza. law enforcement says he's accused of fatally shooting five people, neighbors, execution-style, including a 9-year-old boy. >> it happened friday night in the town of cleveland and east texas. investigators say they asked the man to stop firing his ar-15 in his yard because the baby was trying to sleep.

he shot them. he is considered armed and dangerous and investigators are saying to remain vigilant. >> sam brock is in cleveland, texas for us. on sunday, authorities said they had zero leads in this case. you would hope there's been some progress. what are we hearing today? >> reporter: you would hope. look, kate, the reality is you can offer $80,000 of rewards to try to get credible information, but it doesn't mean it's going to produce credible information. we had a false alarm earlier today, a couple of hours ago in nearby montgomery county, texas, where someone who was spotted who looked like him. it turns out it was not him. where i'm standing is about a mile from where this massacre took place. look over my shoulder. it's a heavily latino community and you can see in spanish, a warning that says, looking for the suspects of murder and there he is. just over to the right, you see all these mailboxes. behind there are homes, but there is sparsely located area. you're really talking about going through a ton of woodlands, and areas that are

hard to access, and this is just one little snippet all over the area here in cleveland. so i did speak with someone, guys, who lives in the house very close to where i'm standing who heard gunfire that night and described over the course of the coming hours, people coming in on mounted horseback, dogs in armored cars. the incredible amount of resources, hundreds of law enforcement officials who are involved right now in the search. >> we know the youngest victim was just 9 years old. what new information are we learning about him and the other four victims? >> reporter: heartbreaking information. wilson garcia, the father of that 9-year-old boy, daniel, he spoke with priscilla thompson and said they had a period of time, where they worried seeing this build up as the suspect was firing, they said, his firearm on his property, and it was scaring their infant son. eventually his wife said, don't worry. i'll stand here. he'll never shoot a woman, and the suspect proceeded to shoot the mom, and here's what his son

did next. take a listen. [ speaking non-english ] >> translator: my son died because he wanted to defend his mother. when he saw her on the floor, he ran towards her, but the man had no compassion. when he saw a kid, a son, crying for his mom. my son died in the hospital. we made it there, but he didn't live. >> reporter: so certainly, guys, trauma that we could never understand on that scale, and now also other big news that's developed today from i.c.e. confirming the suspect in this case had been deported from the united states four times, twice in 2009, then in 2012, and then in 2016 again, and the sheriff addressed this from the context of a 9-year-old boy buying and the politics around immigration. here's what he said. >> i don't care if he was here legally.

i don't care if he was here illegally. he was in my county. five people died in my county, and that is where my heart is. hence, protecting my county and our people to the best of our ability. >> and we are now officially in the third day of this all-out manhunt and it continues right now. not any obvious progression in the search. guys? >> i guess the only good thing is that the whole nation now has seen this man's face. so hopefully he won't be out there long. sam brock, thank you. >> thank you. and authorities in virginia are searching for two men who escaped from a county jail in farmville early this morning. one is charged with killing a sheriff's deputy. the other has been convicted of multiple drug charges. the sheriff is warning people in the area to call 911 if they see anything suspicious. a lot of severe weather to talk about today. the national weather service has confirmed a tornado in virginia beach on sunday was an ef-3, the strongest to hit the state in four years. take a look at what it did to homes there. the cleanup just getting started

where more than 100 structures were damaged. meanwhile, in south florida there's dramatic video of an ef-2. look at these cars being lifted up into the funnel cloud. drivers were inside those cars. this is what it looked like afterward. there have been no deaths reported or serious injuries. snowfall in the west, and recordbreaking rain in the northeast. flooding is the concern in the middle of the country along the mississippi river. bill is tracking the severe weather for us, but let's begin in iowa today. george, you're in one of the places along the mississippi river where i think the water is expected to crest sometime today. how concerned are people about what happens next? >> reporter: yeah, kate. good afternoon. people are very concerned. as you mentioned, the river is expected to crest today into tonight. the damage already done.

if people weren't already dealing with enough, you can see it's pretty windy here today. so add that to the complications. this is what a lot of neighborhoods in this area look like. people have fortified their homes with many sandbags to make sure a lot of this rising water doesn't get into their basements and garages, but nevertheless because of the way this water rose, we know a lot of homes in and around this area and the city have seen some damage to their belongings. people trying to get to higher ground. people have tried to stay behind and protect their homes. others unfortunately could not do that, and they have had to go to shelters and hotels. some waiting for the heat to come back on in their homes so they can get back and take those showers because a lot of people here did not want to leave their homes. luckily some of to those protections, some of the flood walls, the locks have done their job. officials out there just making sure that stays the case with the water cresting. hopefully the water will recede soon so that the next part of this is the cleanup beginning. kate? >> george out there for us.

let's go to bill, and bring you in. you're following a series of systems i know. what should we be on alert right now? >> those were huge tornadoes by virginia and florida's standards by the way. imagine. that was what an ef-2 does. imagine what a 4 or 5 can do. the big storm that affected all of the east this weekend is spinning in southern canada. it's cold. it is raw. it is raining in the ohio valley, and if you are very unlucky, it's actually snowing. this blue on the map, it's snowing almost everywhere. ironwood, michigan reported 14 inches of snow. it's not always looking pretty. that's heavy, wet, tree branches breaking, power outages and a lot of trouble. the cold rain continues over the ohio valley. let's go throughout the rest of today and show you where the storms will go. the storms linger. there's nothing really to push them. so this is going to sit here as we go through the tuesday, slowly drift through areas of the northeast, and the morning

will be the driest and then the afternoon will pop into instability showers all over the place through areas of new england, and even into wednesday. this will sit and spin. the only heavy amount of snow will be a high elevation in the appalachians and west virginia and also in the upper peninsula of michigan. some of it has a chance for 2 feet of snow in the first couple of days in may. >> happy may day. bill and george, that you think so. another american bank has failed and it's the largest since the 2008 financial crisis. overnight federal regulators took over first republic bank and jpmorgan chase already the biggest bank in the united states is buying it. first republic is the third major bank collapse this year after silicon valley and signature banks. for context, it's also the second largest failure in american history behind washington mutual 15 years ago. so let's bring in nbc news business and data reporter, brian chun to break it down. how are we here again? how did another bank go under, and what does this mean for

first republic customers? >> it was a whirlwind to get to this. this logo is effectively chase bank. you have to rewind to the issues we saw in mid march when silicon valley bank and signature banks failed. they were worried that first republic might be the next one to go. there was a cash infusion of $30 billion from its competitor banks. that wasn't enough because they reported just last week that deposits had gone to the tune of losing 40% of their funds since the beginning of the year despite that help. government regulators moved over the weekend to solicit bids. jpmorgan chase, and the largest bank was the winner. they were closing it and they would open up today as chase bank. >> give us the big context here. we know first republic was bought by jpmorgan chase, and as you said, and as one banking analysis, that bank, now controls 16% of all deposits in the entire country. the same group saying this country has gone from 31,000

banks in 1920 to just 4,100 today. what are we supposed to make of all that? is all of this bank consolidation good for customers? >> the story is those small mainstream banks in just your community, and think of the ones you're familiar with rather from growing up in your small town for example. it doesn't exist, and that's because of consolidation. it's harder for those smaller banks to compete. there's still thousands of banks out there. first republic was not a top ten bank, but it was a large one, and it underscores how the landscape of the banking industry is changing. >> thank you so much. spacex is taking off like a rocketship, and what is the weirdest thing you've forgotten in an uber? >> we're joined for our money minute to dig in. >> spacex will spend about $2 billion on his starship rocket this year.

the huge rocket got off on its first launch on april 20th and achieved several milestones before exploding. it was a result that was not fully unexpected. elon musk says he puts the project of it reaching space at 100%. >> retailers are accusing energizer and walmart of conspireing to raise battery prices. three lawsuits claim energizer, quote, under pressure from walmart inflated prices from other retailers starting january 2018, and required those to not undercut walmart on price. and plenty of people forget their phones in an uber, but their slushy machines? the list of things left behind include an ankle monitor, dentures, weed, finger nails, a christmas ornament, and a light saber. guys. a lot of teeth. something like 40 different instances of teeth being left in ubers last year. >> like fake teeth? >> fake teeth, dentures.

teeth. and pets. turtles, hamsters. >> turtles. >> look before you go. morgan brennan, thank you. coming up, how thousands of french protesters are ramping up french protesters are ramping up pressure othe government ovn er my active psoriatic arthriris can make me feel likike i'm m losing my y rhythm. wiwith skyrizizi to treat t myn and joinints, i'i'm getting g into my grgro. ♪(upliftiting music))♪ alonong with sigignificantly clearer r skin... skyryrizi helps s me move with lesess joint papain, stiffnfness, swswelling, anand fatigue.. and is jusust 4 doses a year,, after r 2 starter r doses. skyrizi atattaches too and d reduces a a source off excess i inflammatioion ththat can leaead to skinn and joinint symptomsms. with s skyrizi 90% clearerer skin and lessss joint pain are e possible. seserious allelergic reactcs anand an increread ririsk of infefectis oror a lower abability to f fight themm may ococcur. tell y your doctoror if you he an i infection o or symptoms, had a a vaccine, o or plan t. thanks to o skyrizi, there'ss noththing like clearer r skin

to the french welfare system. president macron raised the retirement age from 62 to 64. many people have to wait longer to get benefits like their pension. richard engel reports from paris. >> reporter: protesters here in paris are now clashing with police. we are in the center of paris, and what's happening is police will try to rush in, and push in with their shields, firing tear gas, but so far it is not working because the protesters will just pick up the tear gas, throw it back at the police occasionally, kicking them, pushing them back, and this is all about the government's new law changing the retirement age here from 62 to 64. the government says it's necessary because people are living longer, not as many people are being born. not many people entering the work force, and the government of president macron says, unless it does this, the system is going to go broke, but people here don't accept that.

they say there is money out there. there are plenty of wealthy people and corporations and that they should pay more. they say they're fighting for the value of life, a work/life balance, and life is not about just working and working as long as possible, but critics say it's unrealisitic and this had to come. it's not just in paris. there have been demonstrations in cities nationwide. according to organizers, labor unions, there have been more than 2 million people out on the streets including 500,000 here in paris alone. the police put that number at much lower. they sate is just about 100,000, to 120,000 in paris. so far there have been dozens of arrests. some injuries, but outside of this square,where it is moist intense right now, there have been a lot of peaceful

demonstrations. families out in the streets taking parking lot in this movement because they say they are standing up for a fundamentally french principle, this principle of a work/life balance which the government says it wants to keep, but can't afford. >> richard engel for us. thank you for being there. heartbreak in florida. the young daughter of a star linebacker for the tampa bay buccaneers has died after drowning at the family's home over the weekend. nbc news correspondent gabe gutierrez is following this story for us. gabe, this is so sad. what do we know about what happened? >> reporter: just so, so heartbreaking. this is the 2-year-old daughter of shaq barrett, a star linebacker for the tampa bay buccaneers, two-time pro bowler and super bowl champion. police say that sunday morning his 2-year-old daughter aria drowned in the family swimming pool in tampa. she was rushed to the hospital where doctors tried to revive her. unfortunately they could not. the tampa bay buccaneers releasing a statement over the weekend saying, while no words

can provide true comfort at a time such as this, we offer our support and love as the family begins to process this very profound loss. kate, an investigation still under way, but police do believe this to be accidental and just a tragic incident, kate. >> gabe, it's raising awareness again of the dangers of drowning. what are some actions that parents can take to protect kids around pools? >> reporter: yeah, and of course, we should stress. we don't know the exact details of what led up to this other than police say it is accidental, but it is highlighting the fact that there are so many of these drownings among young kids each year. the cdc says that it is the leading cause of death among children ages 1 to 4 years old, and right there you see the stats, 11 deaths per day on average. 4,000 fatal drownings per year, but in that age group, 1 to 4, it's an average of 390 deaths a year, and the cdc also

recommends generally speaking several things including parents should become familiar with cpr protocols, consider using life jackets for example, and, you know, closely watch kids while in water even in a bathtub. again, there are so many unanswered questions about what led to this particular case, but again, kate, always just a heartbreaking reminder that these types of deaths happen all too often, kate. >> yeah. gabe gutierrez, thank you. and coming up, why a judge refuses to throw out a case accusing donald trump of rape. yeah,we love our house, but the cost of home ownership has been a struggle. with utility prices rising and...

♪ good among monday, everyone. our top story, another major bank is going down and being taken over by federal regulators. first republic has been sold. pete has more details. this is a major transition. >> yes, first republic bank was taken over by regulators but has been sold to jpmorgan chase. now this marks the third major bank to go down in less than two months. it held about $229 billion in assets so that makes it the second largest bank failure in u.s. history surpassing silicon valley bank. now, deposits for first republic dropped by 40% in just the first quarter. you had many people switching to

safer banks switching after the failures. first republic was carrying many fixed loans with long-term interest rates. these lost a lot of value due to interest rate hikes. some experts believe this is a good move for first republic customers with a big bank like jpmorgan coming in to stabilize the situation. now all bank offices have reopened today. they will be become now jpmorgan chase branches. we haven't seen any signs changes. customers shouldn't expect interruptions to services. >> thanks so much, pete. the bay area still buzzing after the warriors pulled off a hard fought playoff series victory over the kings. they got it done thanks to steph curry. he set an nba record for most points in game seven, putting up 50 in a dazzling performance. after the game, he gave credit

bottom of the hour now, here are some of the stories making headlines. >> the state department confirmed an american city has been killed while fighting in ukraine. the identity has not been made public yet while the family is contacted. at least ten americans have died since is war began last year. ed sheeran back on the stand

today in federal court as part of a $100 million copyright trial. the pop star is accused of copying part of his 2014 hit song "thinking out loud" from marvin gaye's classic "let's get it on." sheeran said, if that happened, i'm done. and rules for homebuyers go in effect today. it's part of the agency's push for affordable housing, and those with higher credit scores will face increased fees. critics say those with higher scores subsidize those with lower scores. e. jean carroll is back on the stand in her civil case against donald trump. joe tacopina asked for a mistrial by prejudicial rulings from the court. the judge denied that. carroll accuses trump of raing

her in a department store in the 1990s. trump has strongly denied those allegations. ron allen joins us now from outside the courthouse in lower manhattan. what are we hearing from inside the courtroom today? >> reporter: the last thing we have been hearing is about some very deeply personal issues. he was asked for example whether she's ever been diagnosed with anxiety or depression or seen a mental health professional because of this alleged attack and she said, no. she revealed she has not had a romantic or physical relationship since this happened in the mid-1990s. throughout the afternoon -- throughout the afternoon and the whole day for that matter, donald trump's defense attorneys have been grilling her about the interviews she did. her book, her column that she wrote, social media posts trying to find inconsistentsies and anything in all of that, that

this whole alleged rape was made up as they allege. she says this did happen, and she has suffered because of it. she's acknowledged for example, that she continued to shop at the department store where this happened even though it was a place where this violent -- allegedly violent attack happened. she's acknowledged that in her column that went on for many, many years, she suggested to some readers they call the police about various issues that came up in their lives even though she never called the police. she's acknowledged that she did post on facebook that she was a big fan of "the apprentice" show when donald trump was hosting it even though he was her alleged attacker. she said she was trying to support the show because two of her friends were on it. she has had an answer for everything. the question is whether the jury believes her allegation and her story. we suspect she will continue on the stand today and perhaps go from cross-examination to redirect, but again, this is the

heart of the case. she's trying to convince the jury she's telling the truth, and donald trump's attorneys are trying to convince the jury she's made the whole thing up. >> thank you. and in texas, the city of el paso has declared a state of emergency. the mayor issued a disaster declaration this morning as the city braces for a surge of mie grants once title 42 is lifted next week. the immigration policy allowed the administration to deport migrants. let's bring in our anchor and news reporter. thank you both for being here. julio, i want to start with you. you have been following this since title 42 was first instated under the trump administration. how is el paso planning to deal with this potential surge in migrants? >> so basically the message that the local authorities are sending is that the border is not open, and it will not be open once title 42 is lifted, and it's an important message to underscore because there is a lot of confusion among migrants who are waiting to be able to

cross into the united states. just a couple of weeks ago we were able to be in el paso, and we crossed the border. thousands of migrants there are waiting, asylum seekers are waiting to be able to enter the united states, and most don't understand how title 42 works and how things are going to change come may 11th or may 12th when things are different, and most of them are really just hoing they might be able to cross on may 12th. we're talking about thousands of these migrants were sleeping on the streets, waiting in camps. so the situation is very complicated. there's a lot of desperation, and that is why authorities in el paso are just preparing for the worst. this state of emergency, really what gives them the ability to use federal funds to open new shelters to receive these mie -- migrants and just be ready for the unknown. >> a lot of these migrants don't know the nuance of the policy. they're thinking about their lives. gary, i want to bring you in

because i know advocates of this policy said it stemmed the flow of migrants. what is the biden administration saying about how they'll manage that once title 42 is lifted? >> they're well aware of this suspected influx. immigration officials have estimated more than 10,000 arrivals every day through the southern border once title 42 is actually lifted next wednesday, and the white house announced they'll be setting up physical migrant processing centers in latin america, starting with guatemala and colombia and going from there in an effort to screen screen folks before they get to the border. they wilill determimine what ops they qualify for, whether that's refugee resettlement or visa programs and officials promise the number of deportations we're seeing on a regular basis here in the u.s. will increase as well. here's what alejandro mayorkas said on "the meet the press". >> it is in the context we are working, maximizing the

resources we have available to us to deliver the most effective results. something that is overlooked that i speak about frequently is the fact that our apprehension rates -- >> yeah. >> -- at our southern border are consistent with the apprehension rates in the prior administration. why is that? it is because of the extraordinary and extraordinarily heroic work of our border patrol. >> they estimate that 10,000 people will be waiting for may 11th. >> thank you both so much. and a trans lawmaker who was barred from montana state's house floor is suing to be reinstated. she was banned over restriction for gender-affirming health care and encouraging protesters. while she is allowed to vote on the bill, she must do so remotely. lawyers working with him argue her constituents are being

denied their rights toed a vat representation. well, your favorite shows could be in trouble. a writer's strike threatening to shut down the tv and movie industry are threatening to shut down tonight. that's if the writers guild can't come to an agreement. marissa, what is the big sticking point in these negotiations, and if there is a strike, i think everyone wants to know what happens to their favorite tv shows and movies. >> yeah. so there's a lot to answer there. i'll point out first that we saw roughly almost 98% of wja members, they voted to green light a strike, and i haven't pointed out i talked to a single writer who is excited about the point of a strike. they say there's so much on the line that they feel like they need to fight for their job security. not just them, the people that they know, but writers ten years from now.

>> we are really prepared to do what we have to do to get a fair deal. what we think we're asking for is very reasonable. we just want our fair share. >> we want enough money to make a basic living doing what we love, which is writing. profits for the companies are up. cost of living is up, and payment to writers is down. >> so a couple of things i want to get to. the main sticking point here, they're asking for increase in pay, but a lot of that has to do with streaming. so streaming is the way of the world right now when it comes to not just how tv and movies are made, but also how they're viewed as we know, and we say fewer episodes in the world of streaming. longer production time means less pay, so what i want to get to is also what impact this would have. we talk about late night talk shows being where we would see the first impact if the strike goes through. "snl," you would see a domino effect throughout the rest of the productions, movies. there would be a halt in writing, potentially a halt in

production if other members choose not to cross the picket line. it could be in the billions in terms of cost. >> marissa, thank you. now this one is for all the drivers out there. if you found yourself dodging or driving into potholes, you're in the alone. the pothole problem is getting worse and some cities are fighting back. we have more. >> reporter: on road after suspension-rattling road, america's going to pot -- pothole. >> they're just everywhere, and it's a hazard. >> reporter: in san jose, daily calls for pothole repairs doubled this year. in fresno, california, pothole complaints are up 305% from last year. in minneapolis, they more than quadrupled. are you satisfied with the repairs that are being done thus far? >> no. >> reporter: kevin potter hit a pothole near his san diego area home that wrecked his tire.

so he and his wife formed their own pothole patrol. >> it's getting bigger and bigger. >> reporter: prowling the area, documenting craters on facebook. record rains have made the situation far worse this year. so the number of drivers that have sustained vehicle damage from a pothole that have required a repair did increase 67% from the previous year. this is more than 2 feet wide, and about 6 inches deep, and these don't just cause a bumpy ride for drivers. they could also cause physical damage to cars. >> i'm telling you, my car -- my car's knocked out of line because they're so bad. >> reporter: josh owns the san diego area. shop that specializes in wheel damage. >> so you're the one person that benefits from pothole skbls we are -- >> we are. we're not complaining, but at the same time it's a problem

here in california and san diego. >> reporter: he says his business skyrocketed, up 75% from last year. now the pressure is building on towns and cities to fix the problem. from oakland to minneapolis, they're declaring a war on potholes. in some of cities, the mayors themselves even help sglg we heard the community. they said they wanted their potholes filled. >> reporter: in california, an all-out blitz this week. the city enlisting everyone from the parks department to accounting to shovel, fill, and smooth over the city's potholes. >> we said, let's go out and blitz this. let's make it a true customer service effort. >> reporter: this week alone, they filled more than 550, but these road warriors have an uphill battle with the record pace of potholes making it harder to just pave over the problem. >> so are you satisfied with seeing the result? >> yes, i am. next time i go down the street, you won't go, boom. >> won't go boom. coming up, the basic safety

shooting. here's aaron gilchrist. >> reporter: time and again, college campuses in this country have been rocked by gun violence. in 2007 at virginia tech, 32 people shot to death. >> utter shock how anybody could do this to anybody else. >> reporter: in 2013 at santa monica college, three people gunned down. >> we have an active shooter in a library with an automatic weapon. >> reporter: and this year at michigan state. students murdered on campus. we spoke to jesse kirsch about protecting the students in his classroom. >> the only thing i could think of was throw myself at that door, grab the knob, squat, and put my foot against the wall so that i could pull the door. >> reporter: he was in one of msu's 1,300 classrooms and had no way to lock the shooter out. it's an issue nationwide. nbc news found six other college shootings since virginia tech

where some classrooms had doors that did not lock including michigan state, the university of arizona, unc charlotte, santa monica college, the ohio state university, and ucla. each school confirming to nbc news students could not lock every classroom door from the inside during the shootings. >> if i could have locked the door right away, it probably would have brought comfort to the folks in the room and myself . >> reporter: i spoke to a grad student at ucla when shots rang out in 2016. he tweeted this system of the locking system he cobbled together since he couldn't lock the computer lab he was inside. >> i looked for anything i could use to secure the door. the nearest thing i could find was cable and cords. anything to slow anybody down that was trying to get in. >> reporter: at ucla and all of the other schools we examined after their campus shootings, locking systems were either replaced, installed, or are being installed on classroom doors. >> if we have no ability to

control access at all, we have no security. >> reporter: paul tim is a school security expert and says colleges have to put the days of open buildings and rooms behind them. >> i don't know of any university facilities being designed without locks today. what we've got mostly is retrofitting of facilities that didn't have them to begin with. >> reporter: just weeks after the shooting at michigan state, the university decided it would install locking systems across the campus and tells nbc news it's starting that installation on may 8th. tim says cost has been more reactive than proactive around the country. >> we're talking about hundreds of dollars at least. installation, all of those things, and it's not for a classroom door, an expensive venture, but the multiplier is something that can be considered cost prohibitive. >> reporter: schools across the country installing locks as a first line of defense against a possible attacker.

now michigan state is rolling out a multilevel security plan including adding locks to classroom doors. that should be done in time for the fall semester. this is not a black and white issue though. schools all over the country are looking at this problem of being able to lock doors. we've mentioned that it can be costly, replacing a single old door lock that could cost hundreds of dollars. now back to you. >> aaron gilchrist, thank you. students at flint community schools in michigan are no longer able to bring backpacks to school. the decision came after a flint school received multiple threats, forcing it to close twice last week. several parents said they support the backpack ban. >> basically for the safety of the kids. i mean, we're having a lot of school shootings and things like that. so to make the school safe, you would like to know what the kids are bringing into the school because you have kids bringing guns and stuff to school. >> you can hide anything anywhere. i would be still concerned

because, like, anything can happen, but with that amount of somebody being able to see what you have, everything inside of your bag, that's a big difference. >> according to the school district website, small purses with personal items, clear plastic bags with gym clothes and lunchboxes will still be allowed within reason. there is much more news ahead. you're watching nbc "news daily." the e abcs of ckckd a a is for awawareness, because knknowing thatat your chchronic kidndney diseasese in t type 2 diababetes could prprogress too dialysysis is impoportant. b is f for belief f that thee may be m more you cacan do. justst remember r that k isis for kidneneys and kekerendia. for adulults living g with cd in type e 2 diabeteses, kerendiaia is provenen to rede the ririsk of kidndney failur, which h can lead to dialylysis. kerendndia is a once-daiaily tablett ththat treats s ckd differerey thanan type 2 diabeteses medicatioions
