9:02 am
into the city under 14 minutes. once you do it, the maze traveling to that freeman street exit 5, 1880 were seen delays because we had earlier accidents along 5, 1880. the san mateo bridge head across towards the peninsula a little under 14 minutes and the south bay. we have some accidents like to northbound south of bascom avenue. another one right here southbound 6.80 at various a rope. we'll have more on that coming up with daryn james, back to you. thanks, ray. it's 9.

9:03 am
been working nonstop in frantically, quite frankly, to get all of those students tested involved in this outbreak. take a look at your screen. we kind of broke down all of the information you need to know about this and this all involves the san mateo foster city school district now between the august 16th in august 22nd 14 students tested positive and one staff member tested positive. you can see how many cases popped up at each school with in this district. most schools having one to 2 cases foster city elementary school where i'm at right now. they reported 6 cases. you can see all those parents and students walking in before the bell rang this morning. and as i said, there's a little bit of anxiety the school in the district really got together. they quarantine testing contact tracing with all those people involved at this that the schools involved as well. but i talked to a a father of a young kindergartner and he said that, you know, he's he's
9:04 am
anxious about this because he's sending his kid into just had an outbreak, but he asked to push forward as we try and, you know, get through school year during a pandemic. and then i talked to aid an 8th grader who says he'd rather just do online learning because of this. >> school started again, in the case are to go up again in every every school in my school had like 2, 2, to 3 cases already and i'm i like to go back time, but they haven't gave us an option. not knowing. how what could happen next. that's the portion that's not know >> even with the fear of the unknown. you know, as i said, pushing forward is kind of the name of the game today. most of these in school outbreaks come from community or at home transmission. the students testing positive here at foster elementary school are far too young to get the vaccine. so that's also of concern. now i've reached out to the school district here but have not heard back in time for this report. stay
9:05 am
tuned to kron 4 dot com as the day goes on. hopefully we can get you some more information especially if you're a parent in this area. i'm sure the more information the better for now live in foster city. sarah stinson, back to you. >> absolutely. all right. thank you very much. sara. and today a big church in san francisco is telling people you're only welcome. if you are vaccinated grace cathedral is going to require proof of vaccination for anybody who wants to come in age 12 and older church leaders say this follows guidance from public health officials on events and gatherings dean malcolm clemens young says that everyone at the church to feel healthy and safe and he believes vaccines and masks are the best way to do that. >> it's a matter of life and death. a number of deaths and the number of hospitalizations particularly unvaccinated people. so we're saving people's lives will be out in the world. such a blessing and a gift. comes with a responsibility. the responsibility is getting vaccinated. i really do. encourage other religious leaders talk to a number of
9:06 am
them in. they keep saying to their congregants. they say it's a matter of personal choice. it's a matter. i'm not a doctor. that all those kinds of things and those that's not helpful. >> tourists who come to see the inside of the cathedral are also subject to that proof of vaccination mandate. >> let's get to the north bay now are solano county is the only county in the bay area's. we know that doesn't have a mask mandate in place. but that's not stopping one city from thinking about implementing one on its own. the nation may go it alone will see what they do tonight. kron four's will tran is live right now in the nation with the details. i will. >> good morning, james and area. if the mayor and the city council members get their way. they're going to override the health department and say. >> you could do what you want, but we will do what we want and we are requiring that people have been nice show wear their they will meet at 6 o'clock tonight and they're scratching their heads wondering what does the health
9:07 am
department know that we don't know for them not to implement a mask mandate. so right now you can walk into the buildings without wearing your mask. but if the mayor gets his way, then you can walk into any building we're talking city county commercial business, then you will have to mask up if you're 12 years or older and they cite that there has been a huge uptick in covid-19 cases, specifically from the cdc between august 14th and 21st. when they saw an uptick about 34% of cases within the county yet there is still no mask mandate coming down from the health department. so i got a chance to talk to some people walking around this morning. here's one lady's reaction to why no mask mandate. i think it's wise it. it can't hurt if nothing else that can hurt. >> in the buddy. >> are you surprised at the health department says go ahead and do it. we have you can do it, but we don't think it's that effective.
9:08 am
>> i am surprised. i think as the anything we can do. to keep us, you know, safe and healthy is is a good idea. >> so here's the thing. the health department says that yes, they do acknowledge that the covid-19 cases are going up. but they believe it's those big events were a lot of people show up and that wearing a mask inside a building might not necessarily be a big component of slowing covid-19 down, but they are telling the mayor and the city council members and most of the people in benicia. if you want to wear a mask by all means we won't stop you. go ahead and wear your mask. vallejo. they're keeping a close eye on this situation as well. and if things work out in they believe that they, too will try to impose a mask mandate some time as early as next month. right now. in you have to wear your mask if you're inside a government building, but they too are looking at possibly commercial buildings as well. back to you.

9:11 am
there is limited access to rental cars and we know that the visitors to succumb to the islands will not have the typical kind holiday that they expect to get when they visit hawaii. >> along with those restrictions are little bit more. mayor of honolulu announced there could only be a gathering of 10 people indoors and outdoors. there could be on the a maximum of 25 people that does go into effect this. wednesday. that will apply to weddings and any other big events. so they're making it you know, restrictive right now. and that's just the main important thing is that just to hold to plans. do not visit hawaii for now, back to you guys. thanks, yoli. she makes a great point about the weddings. that's something people planned, right. because. >> covid store all it. we're getting handle on it. we could have a wedding. let's go to
