their schools and they've already had hundreds of them placed on buildings across the district. the air systems are designed to help kill harmful pathogens such as covid-19 while the air purifiers are not 100% protective against covid-19 experts explain that they can dramatically reduce the risk of transmission. it's not going to stop. >> per se. someone from getting covid. someone comes in the room with it. but the ability for to spread can be minimized. greatly. i've been able to exchange it clean here in the room. >> then fire claims air purification system. the pleasanton schools will be using has also been implemented at public schools in washington and over in chicago. meantime, during the first week of school. 7 students from a mix of elementary middle and high school campuses all within the san ramon valley unified school district have tested positive for covid-19 one of those cases was reported over at los heiress middle school and the parents that we spoke with said they're concerned.

>> us regulators officially giving the green light to getting a 3rd booster shot to about 9 million eligible americans just under 3% of the adult population. these are people who are immunocompromised, including some cancer patients organ transplant recipients and people who take medications that suppress the immune system. there are a number of other conditions where you take medications like that where it's >> it's very compromised. it's one of the criteria that israel actually use when they special israel also did seniors as well. this group getting priority as a recent study finding among vaccinated immunocompromised people. they're 485 times more likely to end up in the hospital or to die from covid. >> compared to the general population that is vaccinated also coming abou stir strategy for the rest of the nation expected in september. the 3rd shot only for those who received the 2 doses of pfizer or moderna the johnson johnson

it's just a little bit later in the game with the clinical trials, with the eventual approval. and so folks have been on johnson johnson by definition on average less than the other vaccines. and so the data has not yet on stars actually needed. in fact, there was a study out of south africa that showed that the johnson johnson vaccine is quite effective against the delta variant. >> happening today it's moving day for students at the university of san francisco for second year students. this is actually going to be the first time that they get to come on to campus. that's because last year the pandemic forced them to instead experience. they're called hits lifestyle through a computer screen as well as her classes. but now stopped volunteers are excited to welcome them back to the new dorm as well as a dining hall which were both completed while usf was fully remote. >> first responders in contra, costa county will have to be vaccinated against covid or get weekly tests.

the clouds don't make it across the central valley very nicely because an intrusion of this front. we can also see this in the winds. local winds are driven by our heating today. but tomorrow they start to build up here in the north bay kind of indicative of that frontal system dropping south and it will kind of clean out our atmosphere a little bit. cool temperatures down at least for the early part of next week. this is sfo. no delays there. clearing hot inland near about 80 for the bay 100 well inland a little to speak up a little spots there tomorrow overnight clouds. we talked about that. the clearing out for your sunday's. we're okay. there. breezy late in the day. but the same kind of temperatures with a little bit of cool down as we get into monday and tuesday, it looks like some areas. well inland, they're looking at 100 or so today will be in the lower 80's come tuesday, potentially for today. 71 san francisco 77 oakland 86 san jose. but when you go inland, you start to get those popping numbers who's at 76, but up the county a little bit in sullivan county, the northern half,

cases. the team is not limiting the amount of people inside the stadium. you don't even need to prove that you're vaccinated for entry. but the forty-niners are encouraging everyone to get a covid shot. now, here's your game day guide physical and paper tickets are a thing of the past at levi stadium game tickets are mobile this year as a way to limit physical contact this includes parking passes. you can find them on the forty-niners app or they'll need to be scanned in order for you to get past the gates levi stadium is also cashless as a cop is also a cashless venue. and you can only pay with credit card or your phone for food drinks. or merchandise. now, once you're inside the stadium, you'll have to mask up when you're in indoor spaces, regardless of your vaccination status. so this includes places like the forty-niners museum, the luxury suites, the bathrooms or the team store. but when you're outside, you won't have to wear a face covering and hand sanitizers are also placed throughout the stadium.

but take a look at this 20,000 fans got a glimpse of their favorite players last week during an open practice. this was the first group of people allowed inside levi stadium since the pandemic forced the team to not allow the inside. you can see plenty of people decked out in 49 to scare everyone pumped up. but everyone also had a mask in hand. however, today will be the first game fans will see inside levi stadium since the pandemic began. not a parking lot behind me is open. will open at 2.30 and the game starts at 5.30. so you want to be mindful of some lane closures and some traffic jams. but of course everyone should have a lot of energy as it is the first pre season game. back to you. >> coming. i think it's a one time that people wouldn't mind sitting in traffic to do something fun like this again for the first time and a long time to say the least. thank you so much. >> well, still ahead on the kron 00:00am morning news. our

is being, you know, being very intimate with somebody outdoors who is unvaccinated. >> well, all the health experts i spoke with pointed out that whether you're indoor outdoor. it is people's behaviors that we'll put themselves at risk in the meantime, an n 95 mask or even double masking is suggested if you are going to be attending a large event this summer. gayle ong kron 4 news. >> we're not only addressing outdoor events. health officials are also worried about a possible rise in cases with the safe reopening of schools. so some are raising concerns about kids being inside the classroom once again over in the east bay, the pleasanton unified school district is taking no chances. they are installing air purifiers at their schools. already. they've had hundreds of them placed on buildings districtwide and the air systems are designed to help kill harmful pathogens such as covid-19 while the air purifiers are not a 100% effective against covid-19

experts say that they can dramatically reduce the risk of transmission. >> it's not going to stop per se. someone from getting covid. someone comes in the room with it. but the ability for it to spread can be minimized greatly. i've been able to exchange it ceean here in the room. >> the air purification system called in viral cleanses the one that pleasanton schools are using. it's also been implemented at public schools over in washington and chicago. well, mean time during the first week of school. 7 students from elementary middle and high school campuses all within the san ramon valley unified school district have tested positive for covid-19 one of those cases were reported at los heiress middle school and parents we talked to said they're worried about it. >> vaccinated. so i'm feeling a need to be better of. it got a younger son who was actually vaccinated because he's too young and concern for him. but the trend that we're seeing, the delta. >> you know it. it was

>> turning now to wild for coverage over in lake county evacuation orders have been lifted, but there remains a warning instead. that's because the coyote fire is still burning near the area of highway 29 this is a look at a camera from saint helena and at last check, cal fire said that the fire has burned about a 100 acres and is 60% contained evacuation warning again is in place. but caltrans did announce it highway. 29 was reopened after it shut down last night. and today marks one month, if you can believe it, since the dixie fire broke out and people living in greenville have returned to this scene basically not much left of what once was the town completely destroyed by that fire. hundreds of homes have been lost and many residents only have the clothes that they took off with still residents say that they are grateful that nobody was killed. the dixie fire has burned more than 517,000 acres

and is currently 31% contained. closer to home. here. it is shaping up to be a gorgeous weekend in the bay area. you might not believe it now. but the clouds will disperse eventually said dave spahr has the details on when you can enjoy some sun this saturday. >> they're to disperse, right. ella dispersed, haha clearing skies are looking for later on today. take care of some of this fog. and you got that right along the coast there, half moon bay. it's still kind of overcast, but most of the bay looks pretty good. you know, we're going to mostly sunny skies over the cooking and here except the golden gate bridge. that's one of the slow spots to get the fog to disperse and we're looking for temperatures to really climb. love it. that's a good one. 78 at this hour for any are already warming up in the far east bay upper 60's to the far east bay too. we've got 60's up in the north bay. now to along the east bay shoreline. so lot of uniformity with temperatures. so the next step is the decoupling often those inland areas as they really start roasting later today.

now what we have going on here is we have some moisture bubble up from the south out to see. this is some tropical stuff left over from a tropical system and the monsoon which will fill up our later tonight as we see some thunder showers or at least some rain going on sierra later today. future cast for at daytime heating boom. they fire up the exhaust clouds come over our air overnight and clear up in time for sunday, then they're kind of interrupted. yeah, they fire up again sunday afternoon with heating, but they stopped because of a front in our backyard that will serve the cool us by the time we get into early next week. now let's watch the wind patterns. you can get an idea that the winds here being driven by the excessive heating happening in london. the bay relatively more mild temperatures. that's typical currents than tomorrow. got the winds. pretty active up here. again, that's the front intruding driving these winds. so the game plan is this. we've got clearing hot inland near 80 for the 100 well inland now

even up in solano county, the northern edge up there has a heat advisory. tomorrow. overnight clouds we just mentioned clearing out, though. and then the same temps will have on balance, but it will be breezy by the late part of the day and then into next week we've got sunny in some cooling going on. upper 80's. it looks like by tuesday in areas that are looking at 100 lose a good decade or better after we get some a change of venue if you will, 71 going on for san francisco. 77 going on for oakland san jose at 86 a lot better than that. temperature wise when you see these well inland valleys, plenty of 90's in the east bay. we've got some up here in the north bay. we could see 100 perhaps off to antioch and if you're driving on anywhere up to the sacramento valley, whatever out 100 plus there. and they do have that heat advisory that's in place coming up a little bit here. we'll have the 4 zone forecast for you look to the extended and also some tropical action on the gulf of mexico to impact the coast down. south will have that as well. hopefully the sun too unbearable inland.
