unite. >> and talk us through the value of seeing diverse faces on the big screen and the impact that has on the next generation. >> isn't when you see as you're like, did he look like i you know, i'm we haven't had that growing up, especially when you talk about diverse asian communities. and that's why cause me really excited. i'm going to cisco time. a lot of filipino friends. yeah. i grew up in a filipino church channel faced by and they invited me to all the food and holiday parties. but i've never seen a celebrated like this and so important to have that. >> yes, and just any thoughts that, yeah, i what's special about this. this film where jo koy and it feels even supporting like shang-chi is that they are led by asian recent from usc show that over the past 10 years, there has been no meaningful increase in

asian leading representation about people. 4% of leads or co-leads or asian american. about 6% are speaking roles and so it's critically important. and when we do have films that are led by asian americans directed by asian american, we really have to be out there, support and is speaking from personal experience to its it almost. you know, when you see faces that. >> that you can connect to and relate to on the screen, whether it's television or in the movie theater. >> it almost feels like well, like that's an opportunity that something that i can do right. like from my own personal experience. like when i was growing up in the bay area in san jose, when i you know, i the only way we have a big way that i thought that a career television for myself as possible is what i saw. other asian american women on television. there were that many in area. there's more now. fortunately, i don't think that would have been possible as i would have seen that as a career choice for myself. if i hadn't seen that representation on the screen being, you know, the next jo koy's going come to one of our

screenings and i know. so, yeah, this is 5, 1, one next. can win next generation too. >> take it to the next and and speaking of amazing woman, janet yang became the first american to lead the academy and oh, yes, that's right to see that. and so we're >> part of the issue think not having representation is that the people who are in power heading studios. there's a new york times research in twenty-twenty national out of the 25 people who lead our tv and hollywood studios 3 are 3 are black or hispanic this screening. you're hoping to. >> provide that screening underserved ap. i families right. so walk us through the demographics in some of the numbers. i'm here in the bay area. yeah. i mean, >> they jen ap, i coach is not just diverse, culturally speaking but also socially economically speaking there's about 1.3 if you i people o% living in the san francisco

bay area about 31% of them live in. when you consider low party lines. so that's 390,000 asian american pacific islanders. i live in low income which is completely different from the model minority of us all being successful. if you want to spend some time with me in the warrant out of town to community working visitation valley, where a lot of partners are. you see it, you'll see these community always interacting together and that's why it's important to kind of break that type of model minority and all the stereotypes. and that's why he's important us to bring these kids out here, too. and to show that, hey, it's ok, well, you're at is about what we can go and what we're going to be shown on the big screen as the same time. >> and organizations are both very involved in activism on behalf of the asian american community. what are some tangible steps that people can take today to help create a more welcoming and more inclusive environment. you know >> i think if you are in positions of power, it's

mentor the people who not people of color and myself growing up here and i was involved, entrepreneurship. i know mentors or asian american really sought me out. and i we have an ability now where there are more asian leaders like yourself in positions of visibility in power. and it's critically important that as hard is to reach out to our community are younger community, including especially comey who are out in chinatown, these poor neighborhood to don't have access to our our networks to get the support that the visibility that they need. >> as an yeah to me about community work is it takes a community to save the and so you have to be bush. and really understand what the problems are and how to relate with them. so far, all the people that want to be active now go get active, have tough conversations with other community members internally as well. you have to build real relationships with people is not a social media post. i like is not just knowing stat go out there and be part of that will change. you want to be. that's why we have like a

rally tomorrow like work with kids today. tomorrow we have a rally to demand change as well like it is not mutually exclusive on celebrating is still fighting for what's right. yes, right. hudson and justin, we appreciate your perspective in time this morning. thank you for joining us. we'll think. thank you. all right. well, if you know a family or child that would really enjoy jo koy's film easter sunday and maybe draw some inspiration from it. >> they're u.s. screening happening today at noon at the independent and asian owned presidio theater vets at 23, 40 chestnut street in san francisco. so spread the word. we'll be right back.

at start variable clouds. cool because that fog rolling back again. west winds 10 to 15 in a bit. going to check in and up to 4 zone forecast for you and the extended to stephanie. thanks very much, dave. >> the school year is set to kick off for many this month. and that means the return to classrooms for students across the bay area. meantime, monkeypox and covid-19 are still very much a part of our reality. so here to discuss key safety tips to keep in mind is doctor george rutherford, a professor of epidemiology at ucsf. thanks so much for joining us. and good morning to you. okay. doctor weatherford, let's talk a bit about covid first. so i i'm sure you recall this to the outbreak at one one point forcing entire school districts to shut down. there were fights at school board meetings over whether kids should mask or even get themselves vaccinated. so obviously things have evolved quite a bit since then. what

should parents keep in mind as they get their kids ready for the first day of school? >> well, it's not a requirement they should have. first and foremost in mind to have children is vaccinated as possible, which is if that means if there are over 12, they should have at least one booster. so that's the main that's that's the main message. get your kids vaccinated. the school districts are going to play at each one is going to do it differently in terms of masking and social distancing and things like that. i suspect we're not going to see will just background levels of infection, which with the omicron variants that we're seeing now, it's probably not the world's worst idea that yes, still be absenteeism. be a sickness among, you know, that they'll infection among the school staff could lead to substitute teaching in all things like that. but it's not going to be. i you don't anticipate that they're going to be lots of hospitalizations or severe disease in this younger population, not impossible. and the vaccines

to a great job credit that. so the first and foremost is to get vaccinated. >> and you also recommend, especially for parents with younger children that they send their kids to school, maybe with a little bottle of hand sanitizer and encourage some frequent hand washing. >> you know, that's not really going to make much difference for for covid might make a difference for a few other things. but not really for covid is really no a surface transmission for covid that we've seen. >> and how about for some of the students who are a bit older with the university students? sometimes they are finding themselves sitting in big lecture hall situations. lots of people in one not sure. exactly. i mean, the guidance for social distancing is probably going vary per university. but what sort of thing should they be keeping in mind as they head back to campus? >> but first and foremost, again, they should be vaccinated. there lots of other things you need to be vaccinated for it for college as well. like many caucus, for instance, meningitis shots. but i would also say that, you know, you can you know, you

can control your environment but putting a mascot. and if you're in a big lecture hall and it's completely packed you know, the people around and your to service with lots of people around you just put a mask on, you know that especially if you haven't been infected before and been infected recently. you know, it's just it's not something you want to get. and we're learning more and more about long covid in the risks are long covid and believe me, this is something to be avoided, not embraced. >> and let's talk a bit about monkeypox now. we already know few positive cases found in very young children. so, yeah, is this something that parents should be going out and getting their kids vaccinated for this point? >> absolutely not. absolutely. positively this is that this is in. this is almost entirely a sexually transmitted disease and almost entirely right now among men who have with men and transgender women. and that the chances of a child

being infected are practically 0 infections that did take place. we're in settings where somebody was infected in the household. and they had a prolonged contact with with a young child in household. so if you have a household member who's infected, that person should be isolated. the will should be covered. they should be, you know, separated from the rest of the household. but short of that, the chances of young children getting this at this point in time are 0. >> and, you know, given the low transmission rate among children. >> i'm still what are some symptoms that parents of young what is there anything that they should be looking out for? >> no, you're not going to get it. i mean, you know that this presents with a rash, ok? i and it looks like chicken pox. now nobody sees chickenpox anymore because we have a vaccine for it. but it's, you know, do you have a? >> fluid philpott's, jewels of different ages that eventually moved to cresting over. >> the typical lesion is, you

know, about the size here, half the size of your little finger tip. and it's filled with yellow fluid, yellow, pus. it is not subtle. now there are some similar signs. there's some pressure, almost signs and things like that. but that's all. that's all nuance. you know, i would not in her children for parents of young children. unless you're a less somebody lives in the household is a very sexually active. a man who has with men. i think the chances of them acquiring it are 0. >> okay. so the really the priority, it sounds like for parents this coming school year is to really make sure that their kids are vaccinated for covid-19. >> and everything else, they should be vaccinated for. the vaccines fell off quite a bit because during covid. so these were way behind, for instance, on measles vaccination. so make sure kids are fully vaccinated. they're all up to date. get the covid shots have a good school year. >> all right. thank you so much, doctor rutherford with

ucsf. we appreciate your perspective this morning. >> my pleasure. have a good day by 2. >> alright, health officials in the one in north bay county keeping a watchful eye on monkeypox cases last month, sonoma county reported 7 cases of monkeypox in the week after it was 11 cases and friday as of friday, the county reported % 17 cases and that jump a county health officials say was described as being bigger than they thought it would be a kron four's. terisa stasio explains. >> in 11 days, sonoma county health officials say monkeypox cases more than doubled from 7 to 17 cases. they issued a letter late friday acknowledging the public health emergency and the work supplying vaccines. but adding they are insufficient to deal with the demand for doing inadequate number of testing is we do more testing. we're going to see more cases. so i think. >> for the near future, we are going to see these numbers continue to rise. how fast are going to rise is is really

anybody's guess at this point. but i i do think they're going to continue to go up. >> doctor john swartzberg with uc berkeley school of public health says the situation with monkeypox is similar to the beginning of the covid-19 pandemic. we're testing was behind that said there are many different ways of transmission currently mostly between men sharing intimate contact. however, doctor schwartz berg adds this is where the public needs to be more aware because differentiate to differentiate between or women. >> where one's orientation. and all right, now we're seeing a we do control it. >> now it's going to be. throughout the country throughout the world, in the arm, children in as well. >> the doctor says president biden steps this week will help get more vaccine into states and counties to try and combat the spread. the emergence an escalation of
