those temperatures cruising along pretty nicely as well. and we do have little fog going on this morning in some little selective areas mostly in the east bay in the south bay. but that's mixing up pretty quickly. this is a shot coming in from tipper on. you can see just a little as we have here. golden gate bridge looking pretty good at that. not a whole lot in the way of a breeze of the fog that i mentioned earlier. yeah. give it a couple of hours kind of mix out with all of this and we'll be in a mostly sunny mode for the day ahead, though, with a clear skies overnight. temperatures are really plummet into the 30's again up in the north bay there. some 40's across the east bay and that is cooler than it was this time from yesterday by a few degrees. now. we do have some high cloudiness today that may linger a touch a bit. okay. but on balance we'll call kind of mostly sunny. here's how it scores 58 by 11, by 2 o'clock. we're talking 72 coming up in a bit. we'll take a closer inspection of your forecast for this weekend and beyond that to you. sounds thanks. let's get right to our top story this saturday morning. >> more people in california now eligible to receive the

covid-19 vaccine as several counties, including right here in san francisco have decided to open things up to more residents. that's right. everyone 16 and older can now sign up for an appointment. >> but here in san francisco, it's only if you live in certain zip codes. our kron four's camila barco is joining us now from san francisco with the very latest details coming up. >> good morning all. and that's right. san francisco is now allowing people 16 and older to get a covid vaccine before this. it was only for people who are 1550 and older or those who had health problems. i'm currently at san francisco. general, one of the locations offering the covid vaccine to people who are 16 and older. and if you look behind me, the tents have been set up there are signs letting people know that there are covid vaccines and have already seeing some people line up to get the covid vaccine. however, the city is expanding its eligibility to people who live in certain zip codes. now, if you look at your screen, you'll see some of those locations. the drop

in covid vaccines are for people in areas like the bayview mission tenderloin por trail hill and portola. so if you live in one of the zip codes you are eligible to get a covid vaccine. if you are 16 and older. now, if you if you look at your screen again, you can also see where these locations or you can head to southeast health center or here at s general, no appointment is needed and the site will be open daily from 09:00am to 03:00pm. so again, these 2 locations or southeast health center or here at s f general and people can drop and no appointment is needed. but if you do want to schedule an appointment. you can call 6, 2, 8, 6, 5, 2, 2, 7, 0, 0, and as i said earlier, right now, i've seen some people get in mind and like we citywide, these covid vaccines just run out super quickly. so if you are looking to get a covid shots. you do have time. this site opens up at 09:00am and

right now there are some people like, but you do have time to get a covid shot today. marty ball, back to you. camila. thank you so much. hopefully we can hear from some of those folks are lining up today. >> a little bit later on. thanks for that report. >> well, in the south bay, santa clara county has also joined other california counties and expanding vaccine eligibility to younger adults. again, this is all days ahead of the state's schedule. anyone 16 and older can now sign up for an appointment at last check. more than 1 million vaccines have been administered in santa clara county, which is actually the most in the bay area. but keep in mind as eligibility does expand, it might be harder to come across those available appointments. >> well, health departments in california are being warned. they should expect fewer doses of covid-19, vaccine in the coming weeks. yeah. this is largely because of a mix-up at a johnson and johnson factory that destroyed 15 million doses. kron four's amanda hari talked with the health

department about how this might impact their vaccinations. >> april 15th all adults in california will be able to log on to my turn dot ca dot gov and see they're eligible for the covid-19 vaccine. but that doesn't mean they'll be able to find an appointment well, we've actually been told by the state to expect one 3rd less vaccine over the next 2 to 3 weeks. solano county health officer bay lamott us tells me if you've had a first dose of pfizer or moderna. >> you'll still be able to get your second one on time. the decrease in the single dose johnson and johnson vaccine over the next 2 to 3 weeks anywhere between 5,7500 fewer doses means a lot fewer people vaccinated at first those clinics. he says they've been anticipating this. we knew it was and the national news. we've heard that johnson and johnson had to discard 15 million doses based a subcontractor air. and so that there was no way that that

wasn't eventually going to filter to us. and he says he's seen people more interested in the j and j vaccine. some people it's because they don't like shots. and they'd rather just get the lawn. just feel that it's products are more comfortable with because it's it's a more way of developing a vaccine. i also spoke with doctor peter chin, hong infectious disease specialist at ucsf. he says, well, it's frustrating for people waiting for a vaccine. it's just temporary. >> it's going be a bump in the road. but not a drop off the cliff. he says the good news is many of the most at risk population have already been vaccinated producing strain on the hospital system. it's important for people to know that overall we're not going to get a huge sage or run and hospital beds icu beds anymore. both agree that eventually everyone who wants a vaccine will get one. our goal is to vaccinate everyone who wants to be vaccinated and we will stay the course until

he's had the opportunity to do that. they are asking people to be patient. they also say more drug companies are constantly working on creating more vaccines. amanda hari kron 4 news. >> all right. coming up after the break. covid or not. south bay leaders are pushing to keep outdoor dining in at least one of its locations. stay with us.

already for san jose and 56 for catching up with tory were this time from yesterday's. you can see with the 24 hour. comparison and upstream. we just want to make note of some high cloudiness today into tomorrow. you know, beyond that, basically it's a mostly sunny story and it breaks down like this 69 by 1 o'clock, by fort 74. that's again inland temperatures around the bay in the coast will be chilly, though, today in the 50's and 60's coming up in a bit. we'll check into the forecast more detail. marty. all right, dave, thanks a lot to get right to our top story this hour, more people in california now eligible to receive a covid-19 vaccine. >> as several counties including san francisco, decided to open things up to more residents. that's right. everyone 16 and older can now sign up for an appointment. >> but here in san francisco, it's only if you live in certain zip codes. our kron four's camila barco joins us live from san francisco with all of the details this breaking it all down for us this morning. i camila.

>> good morning all. and mardy. as you can see behind me, the lines just keep on growing actually had a different place than when i was earlier and behind me is the first group of people who are 16 and older to be eligible to get a covid shot and i see lines because i have been made aware that there are 2 buildings that have been a big that are available 2 make room to get people. these covid shots now, as we mentioned before, shots are only available for people who live in certain zip codes. if you take a look at your screen. these are the areas that city is focusing on serving some of these neighborhoods include the bayview mission tenderloin trail hill and patrolling neighborhoods. so if you live in any of the zip codes and are above the age of 16. you are eligible to get the covid shot now where this happening, the drop in vaccines are available at southeast health center or here at sf general. no appointment is needed. but i will warn people that

because of these lines an appointment. i i do encourage people to get an appointment. the site will be open daily from 09:00am to 03:00pm and looking to people throughout the morning about their excitement. if they're if they're just waiting to get this vaccine. and here's what a few people had to say. >> yeah, i think pretty excited to like have it be behind me like i get back to me in my. i can be more free. obviously doesn't mean i'm going to like go out and like do everything i used to. but at least i have like an extra layer protection. it's pretty exciting because i think like everybody i'm just ready to get the ball rolling back on life again. so this is a great step and i just encourage anyone to take any steps. >> now back live out here. you can see the lines just keep on getting bigger and just keep on growing more people are arriving and the question remains it. will there be

according to the city's%yone. department of health. they said that their car, their call center is experiencing higher than normal call about volley of so people should expect delays. and these are the people that do not have an appointment. so i think this is paints a picture to get an appointment before arriving marty. well, back to you. good make an appointment to and save yourself some time. definitely. we've got all of zip codes on our website. kron 4 dot com. so camilla, thank you for that report. >> down in the south bay. santa clara county has also expanded vaccine eligibility to younger adults. again, this is all days ahead of the state's schedule. >> everyone 16 and older can now sign up for an appointment in santa clara county at last check more than 1 million vaccines have been administered there to santa clara, which is the most in the bay area. but as eligibility expands it, it might be harder to come across those available appointments.

happening today. facebook is converting part of its menlo park headquarters into a public covid-19 vaccination site. the tech giant is partnering with the ravenswood family health network. those vaccines are available from 12:30pm, until 04:00pm. you must be eligible to register. you can find more information on this one on our website as well. kron 4 dot com. >> and that's not the only reason. it may be tough to come across appointments as health departments across the state are being told to expect fewer doses of the covid-19 vaccine in coming weeks. state health officials say they received 2.4 million doses this week. but that number is expected to drop to 2 million next week and then under 2 million, the following week. this decrease is largely due to a mix-up at johnson and johnson factory in baltimore in which 15 million doses were destroyed. >> we knew it was coming. there was no way that that wasn't eventually going filter to us. it's going be a bump in the road. but not a drop off the cliff.

>> and health experts like doctor peter chin-hong ucsf say good news is a majority. the population most at risk to covid have already been vaccinated. that's reducing the strain on the hospital system. he also has the deficit affects only johnson and johnson doses and anyone who got their first shot of the pfizer or moderna vaccine. we'll still be able to get their second vaccine on time. >> coming up here on the kron 00:00am morning news, 3 people dead and dozens of robberies all in the last week in oakland. we're taking a look at a troubling report of increased crime. plus, shocking new charges connected to the deaths of a sergeant and federal officer from last year. the alleged connections, the suspects hdve to far right extremist groups. >> and after the break, covid or not. south. 8 leaders are pushing to keep outdoor dining in at least one location. we're going to tell you where just stick with us right here on the kron 00:00am morning news.

>> good morning. welcome back. in the south bay. outdoor dining has been such a huge success in san jose. the city leaders recently extended it through the end of the year and now some business owners want to close a portion of san pedro square to cause for good. many restaurant owners believe that this could be the lifeline they need to stay alive after a tough year. >> this says street shut down has a lifesaver for myself and

a lot of these other businesses are definitely in support of it and we just giving our voices to the idea and trying >> show how cool and we can make this whole place. look, i can tell you since this has been open. it is definitely help create a buzz around this whole street. >> and you can see why it's just beautiful there. so san jose's transportation department is also looking into the plan. saying, that there are many factors to consider such as whether a full time or time limited closure would be the most appropriate how to access the parking garage and how that might be maintained and what impact this could have on surrounding traffic and also how it can best support community events. noel. >> there's a new lifeline meanwhile, for small businesses in san francisco who have received little to no federal or city funding. mayor london breed approved a nearly 11 million dollar program to fund additional grants and loans to provide immediate financial relief for those businesses. the city's already
