>> and proof of vaccination is not the only option in contra, costa county, businesses where people remove their face coverings to eat or drink indoors can also asked customers to show proof of a negative covid test result from the past 3 days. so jonathan and katherine, they want these people to be fined if they are not following the rules. it doesn't seem like that's happening because of all these threats. so that's the latest challenge, at least in contra, costa county. and we knew, though, that tomorrow morning, the board of supervisors will meet one of the items on their agenda trying to tackle this problem as well. indeed. we'll see what happens. grant. thank you. all right. >> right now, kron 4 dot com. you can get the very latest covid-19 headlines. which states are currently seeing omicron variance. >> and where you can get a covid-19 vaccine here at home. just give the qr code on your screen with your mobile device. and you'll be directed to our website. kron 4 dot com still ahead tonight at 10 o'clock. a messy mix up involving to north beach restaurants. >> controversial confusion that has one business
