four children have contracted the virus. so, dr. -- thanks for joining us. let's start with the news about -- the fda they saying it is safe for babies just a few weeks old. how important is the sense the vaccine has not been approved for kids or younger kids? >> that is the point, you know? there is no vaccine for these kids, so they have no protection. we saw from the study today how many kids are getting infected. so it is great to have this for these kids who get really sick and need to be treated. fortunately, kids don't get really sick often. but they do. and up until now, we have not had a tool in our toolkit to really help. so, a child who is moderately ill -- may be a candidate for this. certainly may very well and likely will prevent hospitalization.

>> let's talk about pfizer's treatment. it is shown to reduce risk of death by 90%. how can this make a huge impact as we navigate this new normal of 1025 and really living with covid? >> well, as i said, we know how contagious this virus is. it is very hard to avoid it. people get sick from it as we know. so having some of the other treatments available for people who are home sick may be at risk for progressing to serious disease -- it almost guarantees you are not going to wind up in the hospital. five days, and that is it. so, it is really wonderful to have. and it is wonderful to have now. if there is another variant as

bad as dr. was, this will be a godsend at that point. >> speaking of 1025, we are seeing cases rising to the bay area. hospitalizations are also starting to take up. are we seeing a fifth surge? >> well, we are seeing away. there is no passion about that. i don't think we should be calling it a third yet, but it is going up. it is like right now. what we don't know is if it is a foothill to a big mountain in front of it. that is the real surge? or is it just a foothill that is going to come down again gradually much like last april with the alpha variant. no way of knowing. the bottom line for me is let's take advantage of the period. of time and not let it turn into a search. really bring together our

resources in case there is something bad around the corner. >> i am curious what your opinion is that we have listed the math mandates on traveling and we are seeing more people walk around without masks. even in sanford school, which was generally very conservative, what do you think about how our world has turned around and seeing these cases up to 50 think we should go back to wearing masks? >> well, i think everybody predicted we would see an uptick in cases. and we know that when there is an up in cases, almost always, hospitalizations tend to follow that about two weeks later. so that is, i think, what we're seeing here. and we have got an extremely contagious virus. as a matter of fact, this ba.2 .1 is incredibly dangerous. even more than ba.2, which is what we had in december and january. we are facing a very contagious virus. we are not using the seven level of precautions we were

before. i'm being very careful. when i'm out in public and outdoors, don't worry about wearing a mask it indoors, i have a very good mask on. and 90 five. and not only a very good mask on, but a very good mask that fits very well. i want to be protected beyond what i have in the vaccines. >> that means covering the nose and the mouth like we have been talking about for two years. it is a good reminder. >> thanks for joining us. >> you're welcome. thank you. turning now to the state capital where there is support for a bill that would ban police for using dna from sexual assault examinations to incriminate victims down the road for something unrelated. now, the san francisco d.a. say the process of reporting is already very difficult without having that in the back of their minds.

>> to call the police, to submit their body to invasive evidentiary gathering process only to then have their trust in the system betrayed when law enforcement preserves their dna profile in the database and uses it for years to come for reasons totally unrelated. >> the d.a.'s office uncovered the practice in san francisco. some officers keeping dna from rape kits in the database. misusing that dna events victims from going forward. san francisco police ended that practice once it was publicly uncovered. this would ban the use statewide. sacramento's mass shooting appeared in court today. their cases continue to the end of may. one of the lawyers told reporter madison keeney they cannot tell from the state. >> reporter: damyean dotson not charged with crimes are directly related to the shooting at but he was seen

he is not in custody but faces multiple felony warrants, including an april 2nd domestic violence incident on top of gun charges. >> especially as you wait without having reports. it is difficult for everyone. >> that is deandre martin's lawyer this afternoon. cameras not allowed. the court they have not seen any evidence from the state. we have asked the d.a.'s office about the protocol and why murder charges. quote, as the investigation is ongoing, our ethical obligations as prosecutors prevent us from commenting on the evidence or the initial charging decisions. >> that was medicine keeping reporting there. i live look at cisco where governor newsom joints san francisco city leaders in celebrating the city's college savings program for students. the kindergarten college program has reached $11 million in savings.
