been steadily climbing as we get closer closer to memorial day weekend. >> you still see people getting gas here on a day-to-day basis. >> a lot of people, i mean, this area have the money to do so and it's not a big deal, but that i definitely myself going to what i would say to go get gas at this point. >> well, aaa says the national average is 4.59 for a gallon of regular and california is just over 6 bucks. san mateo county has the most expensive gas. the average is 6.29. for a gallon of regular. >> well, there's only so much we can do, but experts do have a few tips for you. if you're looking to save a little money while filling up at the gas station, they say gas prices typically go up on a friday or at least that's when the most expensive during the week. so maybe try filling up during the middle of the week. that might save a few pennies here. and there and also tune up your vehicle before any sort a long trip that just helps to fuel efficiency tire pressure to make sure they're properly inflated. that will help at

there's a different way to treat hiv. it's every-other-month, injectable cabenuva. for adults who are undetectable, cabenuva is the only complete hiv treatment you can get every other month. cabenuva helps keep me undetectable. it's two injections, given by a healthcare provider every other month. it's one less thing to think about while traveling. hiv pills aren't on my mind. a quick change in my plans is no big deal. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions, post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression.

if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection-site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. every other month and i'm good to go. ask your doctor about every-other-month cabenuva.
