this is the reason why we must act now to preserve the health reduce suffering of our fellow san franciscans. this declaration will help us ease the process of vaccine distribution. it will also send a message to the federal government that san francisco is in dire need of more vaccines. we had to prioritize first doses of vack cine to get vaccine is to as many people who benefit from it and we will differ, not cancel but differ the second deployment. we will notify the communities when our supply is sufficient to schedule the second doses. this is the best strategy at the moment to keep san franciscans as protected as possible while supplies are limited. and i want to no introduce senator scott wiener who is a strong champion for the health of gay men and all our lgbtq communities in san francisco during the outbreak of monkeypox. - >> public health is about. just like the city did and mayor and department of public health did so quickly at the beginning of covid pandemic and adjust like the city did 40 plus years ago when the federal government completely and utterly abandoned our communit

the number of san franciscans finding jobs is starting to increase. this month, the controller's office reported that -- jobs were added to san francisco's economy. it indicates that as much as these layoffs are happening, the level of growth and number of jobs being added to the market outstrips concern. kristen: many workers are now work from home, or hybrid, so their job is not show up as a loss. does the shift to remote lead to other jobs being lost? >> that had a ripple effect on blue-collar industries. from the pandemic until now, san francisco saw a loss in 60,000 jobs. particularly in industries related to hospitality, service and transportation. the jobs it gave were in tech and industry. when you cmp offices downtown, that is going to affect service industry workers that would be running those buildings and keeping it running while tech workers sit at home and do their work from home. kristen: you guys are going to keep that tracker, right? >> we update it every week. kristen: thank you so much for coming on to share your work. you can check

and unfortunately, the 63 san franciscans have died due to covid. this is looking at the deaths due to covid per month and again, it's consistent with the fact that when you see surges, you see more deaths because of our very high vaccine rates across the city and because of access to effective treatment to prevent hospitalization. our death was thankfully much lower than they otherwise would be. next slide. our case rate by vaccination status, higher verses those vaccinated verses non-vaccinated and the rate is three times of unvaccinated residents compared to those who have received their series of vaccines. next slide. hospitalization numbers reflected in our case numbers and why this gives us confidence that the worse of our recent surge passed and we see the hospitalization numbers are starting to come down now and those would not be affected by home testing numbers so we know hospitalization numbers are delayed, surges in hospital numbers and declines in hospital numbers are delayed by ten days to two weeks after we see a corresponding changes
