It was then that doctors diagnosed him with legionnaires disease. Hes one of eight people who contracted the illness in coop city in january. He was doing flooring work across the street from the cooling towers. Today sitting here, seven months after his ordeal, despite the daily struggles he faces, he says he still considers himself one of the lucky ones, especially when he thinks of the south bronx where the death toll from legionnaires disease continues to rise. This is not a joke. You know, it shut my organs down completely, you know. My prayers go out to every one of them. They dont know what theyre in for. In april, he and his attorney filed suit against coops owners claiming they knew about the legionella bacteria, but didnt do what was needed to protect untold numbers of people who could have been exposed. That includes the duty to test, the duty to inspect, to disinfect when needed. This is a travesty for him, whats happened to him, something that could have been avoided. The more recent outbreak brings it to the forefront that there has to be accountability. I believe this, you know. Nothing is impossible. Nothing. And the fact that im sitting here here is a miracle. Reporter we reached out to the defendants named in the lawsuit against coop city. But did not get a response. From the newsroom, jennifer lahmers, fox 5 news. Back over to you. Dari jen, thank you.

This is a partnership between fox news and facebook. He answered some questions for the social media site, and he was asked what he thinks about donald trump. Heres what he had to say. I think hes popular because he speaks his mind. And he doesnt seem to care very much about what people think about it. And thats kind of a refreshing thing. Thing.

Now instead of a revolving door of hospitals and jails, theyre aiming for a longterm solution. A new quinnipiac poll found that 53 percent of those questioned are seeing more homeless on city streets than in recent years. Reports of random attacks by mentally ill people are more common. The de blasio administrations response is a new program called nyc safe, to protect the public. Nyc safe specifically focuses on people with a Mental Health challenge and a history of violence, a proven mental challenge and a proven history of violence. When those two elements come together, this plan is activated. Reporter the city will target mentally ill people with violent tendencies whether theyre on the street or in private homes. The idea will be to identify them before its too late and an innocent person is hurt. In many of the cases weve all read about, there was always somebody who worried about that person. But didnt have a way to act on it. Reporter the first lady is helping to lead the 22 million effort. This initiative has been constructed to increase Public Safety and provide longterm solutions to folks who struggle reporter the plan calls for police to communicate with the department of health and Mental Hygiene in realtime and train police to recognize the signs.

It was the cardinal who selected immigrant day workers, saying they are especially close to the heart of pope francis. Theyre part of a grassroots commute group.

Looks like a near miss for new york city and it looks like there could be a few showers moving through central and southern new jersey tonight and the first part of tomorrow morning before that system heads out to sea. 88 poughkeepsie for their high.

Many criticized her because she felt she was too attractive to write code. I think were at a Tipping Point with diversity in tech. Reporter mike paul views the case and the advertises. As a prime example of the crisis. I think the stereotypical tech worker is a white male who comes from a strong quantitative and tech background, who has been rewarded for years in thinking that theyre the only ones that can do this type of a job. She and her i look like an engineer campaign proved that false. Dozens of female engineers have uploaded images of themselves often in settings one might not associate with Computer Engineering under the i look like on engineer. They hopes the Campaign Educates those in and outside the tech field about what women in tech must endure in an industry that specializes in innovation run by young people. From a tech perspective, it might be looked at as a forward leaning industry, but from a sexism and diversity perspective, one of the most backward industries in the world. Reporter she plans to launch a digital platform for those in the Tech Industry to discuss diversity in their field. Antwan all right. Thanks so much.

He and emily decided to open their first restaurant in his hometown. Even though pizza is the focus of the menu, matt decided to add one of his favorites, a burger. I didnt have a lot of time to go out. I was like why dont i put a burger on the menu. Reporter to make it, matt starts with the meat. 30 day dry aged beef.

Dari why the cdc says schools are partly to blame. And this. Reporter this is lisa coming to you live from the hamilton premier on broadway. Stay tuned for baruchs stuff live. I dont know what kind of stuff. But its live. Good stuff. Reporter hes the antwan so in fox 5 health news, despite recommendations kids shouldnt start the day before 8 30, the cdc says in reality a lot of kids are in class by 8 00 or earlier and its depriving them of essential sleep time dari they get up so early. Dr. Manny is here. They have a lot of activities before they start classes. Sports dont get me started on this. I this is something ive been saying for years, and im glad the cdc is reminding school systems. When you have kids waking up at 6 00 in the morning, sometimes earlier, they have to commute, get the bus, whatever, most schools they looked at 40something states. They dont start everybody starts earlier than 8 30. Average time, 7 40 in the morning. Sometimes even earlier than that, guys. And what happens is with all the work they do, you know, the argument is, well, listen, parents have to go to work. They want to get the kids. Teachers want out by 3 00. Early. Kids are too tired in the morning to wake up and go to class and try to remember. We always say that sleepy kids, when theyre in class, theyre not learning anything. They might be quiet because theyre sleeping sleep deprived, but theyre not learning anything. If you look at other states and other countries, by the way, they have a far more flexible school time start in the morning. Sometimes they batch it in different directions. But the later start time, 8 30, should be the Gold Standard, minimum Gold Standard for all schools to adhere to. The federal government is reminding everybody to do it. The problem is its not regulated by the state or the federal commissioners. Its regulated by the School Boards in the different districts. What are you going to do . Theyll do what they want. Its a terrible, terrible idea. Kids, im with you. Dari some kids stay up really, really late finishing homework. Lets talk about this. Blueberries and green leafy vegetables can keep your brain young . We know that diet alters our metabolism and we say this for the prevention of diabetes and heart disease. When you look in the brain, there are certain foods and certain diets that are far better. Older folks in their 50s, 60s and 70s, when they have sort of a mind diet, a modification of the mediterranean diets, grains, leafy greens, olive oils, blueberries, wine, wine is on the list, that i didnt make up the diet. This is the government talking. Wine. All of those things really prevent the brain from aging. If you look statistically, if you stick to the types of mediterranean style diets with nuts and grains, that improves your brain age by over seven years. You kind of stop the aging process. When you pollute your brain with margarine and refined carbs and processed foods dari and escargot, weve got you. Youre polluting your brain and clogging everything and, of course, youre going to get into trouble. Wine, one more time. Dari thanks for the government when it comes to wine. I didnt say it. They did. Antwan hi, nick. Nick he just agrees wholeheartedly. All right. Well, listen, today, great day. Humidity down. Temperatures low 80s. Very comfortable. Nice august weather.

There are a lot of clouds tonight. You saw a couple of blips of green central and south jersey for the showers. As we get into the afternoon, the city northward, more in the way of sunshine. Its okay tomorrow night and for saturday. The system breaks apart. So a sunny day and comfortably warm temperatures. Boaters i think its a high risk for rip currents this weekend. Careful for your beach plans. 50s to lower 60s suburbs tonight with lots of clouds. Clouds and more sun through tomorrow morning into the afternoon. 84. Saturday, 84. Sunday, 82. A shower and storm monday, 81. Better chance for showers and storms tuesday. Then we stay in the low 80s wednesday and thursday with sun returning. Dari thank you.
