>> raj, what a day it's been. we had just picked up the flash drive from vta, which is down the street from us. there were so many files. we went through each one to make sure they're appropriate. but we do want to warn people, this is sensitive stuff. this is real-life material. to answer your question, raj, one day after the shooting we filed multiple public records requests asking for vta surveillance video and radio traffic. why? so we could get a better idea of what happened that tragic morning. three weeks later, here we are. so let's start with this audio of vta workers calling dispatchers to report the shooting. >> just listening to that takes us back. we knew it was building a and building b. knowing some of those people, especially that one gentleman who said the shooting was right outside the door. that is chilling to hear and some of these people didn't make it, obviously. >> yeah. they're calling each other. they're calling their colleagues. there were clips where they're saying how are you? where are

that could be very w3great, raj. let's begin with washington is mired inÑi mistrust.icians, elected officials, and republicans in congress are really, really worried about biden turning on them. you have the fact that the public has a whole is concerned about the biden presidency. 30% of republicans still believe that the biden presidency isn't real, that the election was stolen. so biden has to moor his way through this and assure people he's the real deal and that his word as a biden really means something. the proof of course is in the pudding. >> we talk about the damage control now. will this deal actually get done now, the deal that both sides agreed to, part of the infrastructure deal. a lot of people's jobs and livelihoods depend on it. >> odds are, yes. the second infrastructure bill, long way to go. you can see how gradual it is. one misstep, just like the last one, could kill it all. >> larry gerston, thank you for your input. >> thanks, larry, thanks, raj. >>> the supreme court declined to take up the issue about whether students have to use the bathroom w

>> i agree with you, raj. right now where we are in the bay area having such a strict rule is probably a little bit too severe. even if one person isn't vaccinated in a closed loop situation like an office situation that person isn't going to really acquire or transmit covid. but in an open loop situation where it's hard to verify individuals like in stores, groceries, that may be a little bit warranted. but, again, it's going to be tough to enforce, and it'll be important to see where things go in terms of cal osha guidance. >> okay, and we're awaiting that decision. let's also bring in one of your esteemed colleagues also from usf. both of you two of the leading covid doctors in the country. nice to have you on the program again. you told me for many weeks, several weeks actually we should be reopening faster. june 15th will the state regret this decision to reopen fully by next tuesday? >> no, we will not regret this decision at 70% first vaccination rate reached on may 31st. that is actually latcination ra

so raj, but it had little power over much of the country. the rival government and tow brooke in the east was allied with affection called the libyan national army, led by strong man kelly for a half time. the 2 sides fought and attended multiple piece conferences in europe and continued to fight. meanwhile, people smugglers took advantage of the lawlessness to use libya as a transit route, bringing migrants and refugees to live in the mediterranean coast. the european union cut deals with libyan forces to try to keep the migrants back, leaving hundreds of thousands stranded in the country. in january 2020, the 2 warring sides came to berlin with an array of international leaders to try to come to a peace agreement and foreign involvement. finally, in october 2020, the warring sides agreed to cease fire in all areas of libya. this led to the formation of an interim unity government that is set to stay in place until the elections plant in december of this year of war now joined by the w. cheap international editor, richard walker. richard, a

earlier tonight raj mathai asked ucsf infectious disease specialist dr.eter chin hong to weigh in. >> yes, it's very safe if you're vaccinated, raj. again, you have this big force field right now not only individually but as a region as you pointed out. so i think given such low numbers. for example, in northern california, san francisco as you pointed out, the risk of getting covid extremely low. even if you get it and you go to a high risk area, you're not going to get sick. you're not going to go to the hospital. you're likely not going to get any bad covid when you're vaccinated. >> so what will it look like on june 15th in your county? head to nbcbayarea.com, we break down all the rules big and small and move you forward. just click on the link in the trending bar. >>> at this hour firefighters in the north bay are keeping an eye on an open field. there it is. because a brush fire had a lot of people on alert earlier this evening. the flames started around 5:30 near markly lane not far from vanden high school. this video is from sky ranger. firefight
