morning. definitely jacket where the to start. but this afternoon, we're keeping some really nice weather around that we've been enjoying for quite some time now. this is where we're sitting in san francisco city under the low gray got quite our there. >> not seeing much fog and low visibility at this point unless you're right along the coastline or in our mountain sides, which is actually reaching up into the low gray. expect fog to hang out with us for a little while longer before burn off and then sunshine later today. we'll need the jackets later on. as for current temperatures, it's 50's almost everywhere. santa rosa in petaluma in the low 50's double in oakland. alameda livermore as well as redwood city. 57, we'll be breaking down this last weekend of july forecast. still to come right now, wow. can't believe last weekend of july, john. okay. head into the city this morning about it. >> 60 min arrive maze to that fremont street exit. let's go ahead and look at the san mateo bridge. 82 want to one you're looking at about a 14 minute right? our richmond center fell commute a little under 10 minutes for you there as the sun is coming up. and

somerset drive. this is around 8 o'clock last night. we do know that 3 people were in one sedan, 7 others in a large suv when they slammed head-on into each other. i can tell you there is no center median at this particular stretch. and yes, they do drive highway speeds. they slammed into each other when the police department came out here announce that 4 people had died from this horrible collision and the police department just about 2 or 3 miles from here. so it didn't take them very long to rush out to the scene. and when they got her , they saw what they describe is perhaps the worst seen they have ever come across. >> i've been working in this county for 26 years and this is probably the worst crash that i've seen on this stretch of road. >> so let's head back out live right now. you can clearly see the speed limit. this as 50 miles per hour. and there is no concrete barrier separating

either direction. comparison would be like vasco road that we do know near livermore. same deal as far as nothing that separates the cars. obviously that played a role in the crash as far as why they crashed, whether or not they were sleeping at the wheel. if it's alcohol drugs, we don't know at this particular time, but that's part of the investigation. we do know. fortunately, the 6 people survived their injuries and also another fortunate incident. we have not gotten an update on the number of people killed. yes, sadly, 4 people died from this head-on collision. but that number remains at 4 an easily could have gone up. but we do know that 6 people, we're still in the hospital this morning, reena and area. >> all thank you. well, happening today, barr could decide to reinstate their mask mandate and it's because of that new variant is so catchy. lot of people have covid. so let's go to kron 4. sarah stinson with more on this in

lafayette. sarah, they only lifted the mandate like >> 9 or 10 days ago. >> that's right. i mean, 10 days ago they said that bar you don't have to wear your mask anymore. it is encouraged. and now they're saying you might have to mask up again. they're considering reinstating the mask mandate on board trains in bart stations. and even those not required in this moment, we are still seeing, i would say most people wearing their masks heading into ride. bart this morning. not too busy here in lafayette, but a slow trickle of people heading to work tonight. the board of directors of bart will need to discuss this. they will decide if they want to reinstate that mask mandate in extended until october 1st. so that be about 2 more months of requiring people to wear a mask be the rest of the summer and heading into the fall. and bart riders, you know, even though they're not required to right now, i would say most people are wearing in some told us

that they're doing it protect themselves and others. let's hear now from people i spoke with just moments ago say they're in favor of the bart board directors requiring masks going to get. >> yeah, that's where i'm i wear my you know, to protect myself, but also to protect other people. so makes sense. >> what's it been like the last 10 days where it's not been required? >> i can see that people are wearing i think it's a good idea. >> and so clearly those 2 people in favor of the mask mandate being reinstated. if you have a strong opinion on this either way you can voice your concerns at the meeting. it's going to be on zoom and they'll be taking public comment. it starts at 5 o'clock will be interesting to see what part does darya reyna. if i was a betting woman, i would say they're going to reinstate it, but we'll have to now back to you. speaking another big story is

a lottery are gonna buy a ticket? just curious because the office full lost a lottery. >> are you a pool for work? but i guess we never one. my mom's really in the lottery. she's visiting today. i'm going to have to do i just go see you go broke paying. let's talk a little bit more about covid because it turns out that a lot little kids are not getting vaccinated. they did a study and it looked to kids under the age of 5. >> and the numbers are going down. a new survey from the kaiser family foundation found that about 40% of parents with young children say they have no plans to get the little ones vaccinated in marin county. just about 30% of kids that are under the age of 5 have gotten their first dose of the vaccine. that recent survey found the parents a specific reasons. those who don't plan to get the shot. there are many reasons why. >> they are concerned about potential side effects and the new knesset, the vaccines and

then also the fact that most parents haven't had a chance to talk to their child's pediatrician or another health care provider about these vaccine. >> overall, the bay area vaccination rates are much higher than apple national average for kids. the national average is 3% of children under 5 getting the first just 3%. now compared to, for example, san francisco is 21% of kids who are the youngest age group. they've gotten a covid shot. in national news. let's go on to monkeypox and the u.s. is now leading the world in the number of cases more than 4,600 confirme- cases in the u.s. of monkeypox and the biden administration is still considering whether to declare a public health emergency. the president is also considering naming a white house czar to coordinate the monkeypox response. last week, the world health organization declared monkeypox a worldwide public

health emergency. with family. just go having one of the highest case loads of monkeypox in the country. senator scott wiener's calling on both the city and the state now to issue a state of emergency. >> kron four's rob nesbitt explains how a declaration could improve the city's monkeypox response. >> with supplies running out, the u.s. announced wednesday that 800,000 more doses of the monkeypox vacci e had been approved to be sent out to states in need of more. the shipment coming from denmark. but senator scott wiener says the food and drug administration should have acted sooner. it's why he's calling on san francisco in california to declare a state of emergency responsability for administering vaccines and expands who is able to actually. >> and minister vaccines. it also expedites entering into providers. senator wiener says the state of emergency will also remove barriers around monkeypox testing. important when it's assume that there are more positive cases of the

virus that are being reported were a city of 900. you're not 1000 people and we're being impacted. you know, per capita more than york city far more than ally. the u.s. is considering issuing an emergency following in the footsteps of the world health organization. doctor peter chin-hong ucsf says the action at the federal state and local level with monkeypox means more dedicated funding results in a well mall. well oiled machine. >> that we need right now if not going to make this an endemic infection, that's going to be part society moving forward. the san francisco department of public health started making calls this week canceling appointments for second doses of the vaccine. >> in order to prioritize first shots for more people at risk. a move that the doctor supports that free shot is really acting like 2 shots of the pfizer vaccine. and the second shot is acting like abuse or so. the booster you don't several months if not longer. >> that was rob nesbitt reporting for us now. the san francisco department of public

health says the city will be receiving more than 4200 doses by the end of the week. >> in the south bay, santa clara county health officials are also expecting to get more doses of monkeypox vaccines. that county has the 3rd highest number of monkeypox cases in the bay area. 39 cases and counting and those current cases officials say are in a disproportionate rate happening among the latino community. public health officer doctor sara cody says the county is expecting to get more 700 doses of vaccine to help stop the spread. >> we're of course concerned not just about those who have monkeypox, but their contacts. and of course, we want to do everything that we can with all of the tools that we have. >> to prevent further infection. >> so far the county has given out more than 600 doses of monkeypox vaccine. officials say they still need much more. >> coming up on the kron, 4 morning news delay hills

saturday will see a few more 90's inland. but then we'll fall right back into the 80's into early next week. they cited coastal cities not moving much either 60's to 70's all the way through right now. john, thank you for that. ok, headed into the city this morning about a 14 minute ride maze to that fremont street exit traffic looks like it's improving there. >> no issues or delays longer. san mateo bridge just enters 14 minutes, making it a 80 to one o one. a richmond center fell bridge. still a nice ride, although there are more traffic. 11 minutes heading across to we're sandra fell to check on the golden gate bridge. 37 to the tolls. it's going to take about 20 minutes on this thursday morning. there is an urgent plea to stop the transfer of patients out of the nation's largest nursing home laguna honda in san francisco. so far, 56 patients were moved and 4 have died. kron four's amanda harry spoke to one of the patient's family about the push to stop those transfers. >> trend continues up to 60 people are going to so is is a
