And when there was 140 on july 20th, i sent a letter to the secretary of the department of health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra expressing significant concern and urgency for the need for vaccines in San Francisco, and that we are at a very scary place. And we dont want to be ignored by the federal government in our need. So many leaders of the Lgbtq Community have also weeks ago asked for additional help and support and assistance. And this was july 20th. And now here we are, july 28th. And were double that number at 281 cases of monkeypox. And in desperate need of vaccines. And to also put that into perspective in terms of the numbers, weve received about 12,000 vaccines to date. We really need 70,000. We sent in a letter as well asking for about 35,000. Because what we want to do is we want to prevent the numbers from increasing. We have a solution in the vaccines. And we want to make sure that everyone who is requesting a vaccine gets one. We have five sites identified in San Francisco and have to close many of those sites because weve run out of vaccines. So were all here today because we know the importance of this.

The broadest measure of the economy economist has now declined for two straight quarters, traditionally a sign of recession.

But thats consistent with the transition to a stable, steady growth and lower inflation. Reporter with the midterm elections approaching, the Biden Administration is pushing back on the idea that the u. S. Economy is sliding into a recession, pointing to areas of strength in the economy. Job creation is continuing. Household finances remain strong. Consumers are spending and businesses are growing.

I suspect prices are going to keep coming down, but theyre going remain uncomfortably high for a longer period of time than any of us would like. Reporter the economys last recession lasted almost two months in 2020 at the height of the pandemic. Debra alfarone, cbs news, washington. Senate democrats are saying their new spending will fight inflation. Theyve even renamed it the inflation reduction act, and it aims to combat Climate Change and lower Prescription Drugs costs. I think weve hit a balance. This is not a democrat bill. This is not a republican bill. This is an american bill. The measure would invest nearly 370 billion in energy and climate programs over the next ten years, and it includes incentives like a 7500 tax credit for those who buy electric vehicles. The bill would also allow medicare to negotiate Prescription Drug prices and would cap out of pocket costs for seniors to 2,000 a year. Republicans say its bad medicine for the u. S. Economy.

The question now, what will it mean for the prices we pay. Reporter jetblue is bringing a new airline on board. The carrier is buying spirit air for 3. 8 billion, which would create the nations fifth largest airline. The deal comes just one day after a potential merger between spirit and Frontier Airlines fell apart. Weve known for weeks that spirit shareholders were favoring jetblues offer over a competing one from frontier. Reporter David Slotnick from the points guy says if the deal holds, spirit will fall under the jetblue brand. By acquiring spirit, they can basically double in size overnight. Theyre going the take on all of spirits airplanes, all of their staff, convert everything to the jetblue style. Reporter under jetblue, the rock bottom prices could go away. The airline is known for low rates and often leads to market when it comes to customer complaint. I hope it makes it better. From my experience, ive never had a good flight with spirit. So hopefully they make a lot of good changes to that. Reporter but this deal is likely to space scrutiny, and it must clear several hurdles before becoming a reality. The department of justice is going to have to approve this merger. And this doj has stated that it is concerned about approving mergers in highly concentrated industries. The argument here and the one that jetblue needs to make to regulators is by combining with spirit, theyll be able to compete with the other big four. Thats american, delta, united, southwest. That process will take time. Even if regulators and Shareholders Approve this merger, the airlines do not expect to opete single carrier until 2025.

First alert chief meteorologist paul heggen is here. Paul, you and i both commute from the east bay. We definitely get the taste of what its like. We get sunshine. You get real summer. Oh my goodness. And you come on in here, all right. Its 60. I was in a parka. The fog was so thick, i told paul, im never seeing the sun today. Its not going to happen. Youre not going to see it through the weekend either. The same weather pattern is going to be locked in place for the next several days. The fog was definitely stubborn over the bay and especially along the coast. The overall weather pattern isnt going to shift a whole lot. Lets take a look at the big picture pattern. Monsoonal moisture has been sent our way. This big stretched out area of High Pressure in the upperlevels of the atmosphere, i usually refer to these as a hill of air. Basically, this is a Mountain Range of air, these different hilltop, but all conspiring to spend some of that monsoonal moisture to the bay area. Were not getting all of it, but were getting enough to boost humidity levels. It felt a little muggy from time to time. We measure that with a statistic called the dew point. Anything above 55 is noticeable when itom the dew point. Ea i right now. E the entireay and thats where we goingo main for the next several days, because that monsoonal moisture is going to continue otoi climb into flight o m rlm on the muggy meter and we never get up towards the top. But its just going to feel like this as we head through weekend and into early next week with the overall pattern kind of stuck in place. We get the fog because the cool pacific air runs into the muggy air thats farther inland and condenses, and the moisture in that marine layer condenses to form the fog that is still out there and is in fact dropping closer and closer to ground level already. Upper 50s in San Francisco. Only mid 60s in oakland. Inland temperatures are fine. Mid 70s in san jose and santa rosa. Around 80 in livermore and 84 degrees in concord. So another day of near normal temperature, even though it has been a bit cool near the water. Its going to be cool for the giants game against the cubs. Say that in the right order. The temperatures are going the wobble around a little bit. But hovering around 60 degrees. Dropping down farther into the 50s as we head through the rest of the evening. The fog is going to make a big sh the inland valleys by early tomorrow michael jordan. But its going to retreat out of those inland valleys as we head through the morning. But like today, the fog is going to be reallyal along the coast. No sky july. Full effect as we finish off the month and head into early august, early next week. Temperatures tonight dropping down to whats normal for this time of year. A muggier air mass doesnt cool down quite as much, but its not that humid that it keeps us from falling into the 50s, which is where were supposed to be. High temperatures tomorrow, a few degrees below normal in San Francisco and oakland. Right around average farther inland. Right around 60 along the coast. Mostly 70s down the peninsula, and around the south end of the bay. A little farther into the 80s as you go inland in the santa clara valley. Up to 82 in san jose. Mid to upper 80s for most spots inland in the east bay. Around 90 the farther inland you go. A noticeable level of humidity might make that feel a degree or two warmer. Low 60s in San Francisco. Upper 60s for oakland and the east bay. Napa a little cooler because i think the fog is going to be a bit more stubborn there. As you go farther north, here is how close the extreme heat is to us. Inland Mendocino County and lake county likely to see widespread tripledigit heat over the next couple of days. Ed h campecirt all week. Temperatures arent going to change much for the bay area. 60s in San Francisco. Near 70 for oakland. Right around 80 degrees for san jose. Just that additional cloud cover. But in terms of any chance of popup showers or thunderstorms with the monsoonal moisture, that remains unlikely for the bay area, which is fine. A shower sounds nice. But we dont need any cloudtoground lightning threat. Well take a look at 5 30. Thank you.
