M. , they turned it down. San jose police. Reporter still, San Jose Police arrived and told them the hotel would allow them to stay.

Attorney Robert Powell has filed this civil rights lawsuit on behalf of the officers and the city of san jose saying the Police Department has a culture of Excessive Force with either no training whatsoever, or inadequate training on the constitutional boundaries of the use of force. The escalation is just so intense. To go from youre talking to them and the next thing youre tasing them . In fact, prosecutors declined to press charges in the case saying the rapid escalation of force and use of batons, tasers made this a case we did not think would result in a conviction at trial. After i called and emailed, the san jose pd called me to freeman, whod she wont e titio. Her office filed thisich ms pae were combative and reached for a taser, and each use of force was an appropriate, reasonable, and constitutionally permissible response to plaintiffs actions under the circumstances. It was brutal. Definitely brutal. I dont think we did anything to deserve how we were treated. We need to hold the Police Accountable for their actions. And we cant let them continue to act like this. The san jose pds duty manual says these tasers and riot guns are supposed to be used only when the subject poses an immediate threat to the safety of officers. Now this case, it appears to have been punishment for packing too slowly and for talking back. For the iteam, dan noyes, abc7 news. Dan, thanks very much. Well continue to follow the story closely. We could be in for several more heatwaves this summer, all while kids are Distance Learning at home. How teachers are an army family who is always at the ready. So when they got a little surprise.

So he was actually complaining like oh my god, its so hot. But i hope theyll be doing the best. We have to work with what we have. Reporter the reality is not ever School District is concerned because live instruction typically happens in the morning before there is high demand, which then puts added pressure on the electrical grid. In San Francisco, Lyanne Melendez, abc7 news. Well, the hot temperatures, wearing a face mask can feel miserable, obviously. But there are ways to make it a little more bearable for you and your children. Doctors recommend wearing a light colored mask. Make sure your mask has a tight seal around the edge, but not too tight there should be room between your mouth and the mask. A cotton mask may be the most comfortable because it can absorb sweat.

The race for a covid19 vaccine continues as medical experts get closer by the day. The federal government is projecting an effective vaccine for covid19 by january, but the big question still to be determined, who will get it first. The race for a vaccine, thats been our focus this week as we work to build a better bay area during the coronavirus pandemic. Abc7 News Reporter luz pena has tonights story. Reporter over five Million People in america have tested positive for covid19. Medical experts see the main solution. Were not going get there without a vaccine. Reporter once there is a vaccine, the next question is who will be the first to get it. The highest priority groups certainly in the beginning are going to be Health Care Workers and people who have direct covid exposure. Reporter dr. Chris buyers suggests a good starting point for answers is to look at the distribution patterns from other vaccines. He is a Senior Scientific liaison for the covid19 prevention network, a federal Advisory Panel providing recommendations to the cdc. There is a long way to go before the distribution and access issues, and that plan is very much underdeveloped. Reporter the Cdcs Advisory Committee on immigration practices suggests a fivetier plan that was also used for the influenza vaccine. In tier 1 we have Critical Health care, Law Enforcement, and Public Health care professionals. Tier 2, groups in the homeland and National Security category. Tier 3, essential workers. Tier 4, high risk adults, those 65 years old and older. Lastly, tier 5, the general population. Another plan comes from the World Health Organization which laid out a global allocation framework giving priority to number one, 50 Million Health care system workers. Number two, 650 million adults 65 years old and older. Number three, 1,150 million highrisk adults. This is a long process. But at least were studying the vaccine. What i understand is the age groupings are doing well, but theyre not doing as well as etr. Ynnmaldonos leading the covid19 clinical efforts at stanford medicine. She believes distribution could be impacted by the number of covid19 vaccines developed. I would say depending on which ones come out, if there is more than one at the same time, there might be more numbers of doses available. Reporter now whenever a covid19 vaccine does roll out, all experts agree on one thing. There wont be enough to go around at first. In may, President Donald Trump announced operation warp speed. Reporter a federal program aimeding to deliver a safe, effective vaccine for covid19 by january 2021. Deputy director dr. Julie ledgerwood gave some insight into who theyre targeting in the vaccine trials. As these trials are seeking to enroll volunteers from diverse populations, including minority populations at higher risk of covid. Reporter a population that according to john jacobo with the latino task force, is apprehensive about a vaccine. So there is some concern im hearing from you, those essential workers, minorities feeling like the guinea pigs . Thats right. Thats right. And we heard that when we first came in the first time to do our testing with ucsf back in april, we absolutely heard people say we dont want to get tested and then were going to be the guinea pigs for potential vaccines to test them out. And we assured them thats not the case. Its up to individuals to make the choice that seems right and feels right for them. Reporter latinos, blacks and native americans have been disproportionately affected by this virus, making race also a main deciding factor when choosing subjects. Everybody has really been very clear that they want this racial ethnic distribution to be taken into strong consideration. So were hoping that that will happen. Reporter for now hope is whats keeping the worlds top experts working around the clock, hope to find a vaccine, and hope for an equitable distribution. Meanwhile, the World Health Organization announced it will have a finalized allocation plan by the end of this month, with or without a vaccine. In San Francisco, luz pena, abc7 news.

Tonight abc7 newss iteam is digging into nursing home staffing shortages tied with Infection Control problems. Facilities are facing a looming deadline to report staffing data to the state. Iteam reporter stephanie sierra has the story. People are dying in Nursing Homes. I find out yesterday that she tested positive. The phone would ring and ring and ring, ring for 20 to 25 minutes. Reporter these three families all share a common concern, staffing shortages in Nursing Homes. Lisas mother, a resident of millbrae skilled care says she could never get her medicine. I wasnt able to get ahold of her for days and then i find out she is sick. Reporter eric love, a patient at burlingame Skilled Nursing was scared about Infection Control. People Walking Around without masks. Reporter and scott didnt get to say goodbye to his father before he died at the gateway care and Rehabilitation Center in hayward. He says staff couldnt answer the phone. It was hard. Im sorry. Reporter according to an abc7 news data analysis, Nursing Homes across the bay area failed to meet staffing requirements last year more than 1,600 times. The hot spot is in alameda county. The abc7 news iteam flagged 23 facilities in the county that failed staffing requirements. State regulators have issued 481 deficiencies in recent years. New data shows more than half of those facilities were also cited withinfectionrelated deficiencies. So why isnt the California Department of Public Health flaggi problem facilities . The state declined our interview request, but sent the following statement saying we conduct surveys to check on compliance. The agency added we currently have strike teams deployed to assist Health Care Facilities with preventing and improving Infection Control. Attorney mike dark, who specializes in nursing home reform, says both of those efforts are inadequate. The California Department of Public Health kind of perplexingly during this pandemic has shifted away from enforcement, away from citing bad facilities into a kind of supportive role, which is a weird thing for a regulator. Reporter inspectors that usually write citations are now acting like consultants. And that creates a terrible conflict of interest. Reporter for the iteam, stephanie sierra, abc7 news. The u. S. Hit a grim new record this week. We recorded the most coronavirusrelated deaths in a single day. More than 1500 people died from the virus this past wednesday. That has brought the u. S.

Show getting answers. My concern, yes. Am i panicking . No. For no other reason, there is still at least another relief package that will happen prior to the november election. And at a minimum, another appropriations bill out of congress to keep the government functions. So a negotiation between the white house and both houses in congress should give the Postal Service the resources they need. His office has received a letter from usps warning of possible mail delays. Here in california, as long as your ballot is postmarked on or before election day, it will be counted. The state will send every registered voter a mailin ballot. 83 of californians eligible to vote are registered. Taking a live look outside.

Bay Area Business owners say its a new card customers are flaunting to try to get out of wearing a mask. If you can believe that.

The San Mateo County Health Department tells me there are legitimate exemptions, such as having a disability which would affect ones safety wearing a mask. Erin has unfortunately heard plenty of bad reasons. I had one lady come in. She had two cuts in her mask right here. Said oh, its a trouble for me breathing. Thats why i have it. Doesnt that defeat the purpose . Reporter connoisseur coffee has since been on the lookout for these fraudulent flyers, and now has security cameras and reminders everywhere to wear a mask.

With a new round of funding, the partnership will be extended well into the school year. That is certainly great to hear. And kids are starting school. Its a hot, hot, hot start to the school year, dan. It is sure is. Brutally hot. So nice of the curries. Theyre terrific. Sandhya, its not going to end any time soon . No, unfortunately not, dan and ama. It is tough for the kids, especially since so many are dealing with this intense heat and the pandemic. Let me show you those temperatures right now. Theyre still in the tripledigits. Inland, 107 in fairfield right now. You know, all i have to say is i wish i were right here, Half Moon Bay, where it is 75 degrees. The breezes brought the temperature down. All right. In all seriousness, the dangerous heatwave continues. Heat advisory for the bay shoreline until 9 00 p. M. Tonight. Excessive heat warning for all inland areas until next wednesday night. Coast is the only place where you escape it, but the heat illness risk is high, be careful. Live doppler 7 showing the absence of fog. We have pretty clear skies right now. Tomorrow afternoon, its going to be another hot day, not quite as hot as today.

Monday temperatures come up even more. 108 inlands. Heatwave continues until wednesday, and then we get a break from the tripledigits, 90s thursday and friday. Cooler at the coast.

The as would never come o say it, but with the giants struggling in last ace, t probably dont really need him in this series. Happy to report no suspension for abc7s Chris Alvarez as long as he keeps that mask on at all times at oracle park. How you doing, chris . Great, larry, as always keeping the mask on. Im going get out of the way. There is actually humans and a seal in the cove. Here we are from mccovey cove. Perfect weather for this baseball game. There is a definite lack of energy there should be 40,000 plus fans in attendance tonight. Instead its about 10,000 cardboard cutouts. This is 2020. You remember the two teams met for two exhibition games in which the giants won both before the regular season began. That seems like a long time ago, at least for the giants. It is a tale of two years. The as with the best record while the giant just wrapped up 37 road trip and sit in last place in the nl west. As we once again renew the bay area rivalry with a little less noise. Guys, get up for this series. You know that everybody is watching. Its still the case. But you really dont feel like it. It is definitely more intense than i thought it was. And, i mean, especially with fans at the park. You see that a little bit more. I want to be able to beat the team and the as are always the underdogs. Were probably the underdogs again to some of the mccovey chronicle guys. But were coming in there and were going prove that we deserve to be where we are right now. As we take you back out to the cove. Hanging out with some of his friends. There is probably a couple hundred people gathered between the water and also on the walkway here. This game just started. Of course, larry, highlights and reaction in the bay bridge series. A huge win for the giants if they want to keep any playoff hopes alive, while the as are sitting pretty atop the American League right now. Real quick, before you go, chris, how much money would i have to venmo you to drop the mic and dive into mccovey cove . How much . Whats your price . It would take a lot, larry. I want would take a lot. I think someone hit a home run because the cannons just went off. Its too hot. Way to avoid the question. Thanks. Highlights at 11 00. Thank you, chris. The 49ers made it official today. George kittle signing his new deal, reportedly five years for 75 million. Niners will hit the field in pads for the first time tomorrow. Where are you going, man .

Weve been under quarantine. Were wearing masks. We havent even had a tackle. We havent put a man on the ground yet. He wants to see somebody go down. Classic jon gruden. And dan, ama, i was willing to do a gofundme for chris to take the dive. And was total distraction. Oh, i think somebody hit a ball in the water. I got to go. I got to go. Like we wouldnt notice if he did that. Sad. Really sad. Disappointing. Thanks, larry. All right. Join us tonight for abc7 news at 11 00. Im amanned the del castillo in the south bay.

Five months ago, we didnt expect to be here. If we flattened the curve, we thought we could beat back this virus and get it under control. It seemed to be working. Then we tried to reopen. Too soon some Health Experts believe. And now the virus is spiking again all around the country. Businesses are still struggling terribly, and a lot of people are still not back to work. And those who are juggling the challenges of working from home. The coronavirus laying waste to high school and college graduations, weddings, Summer Vacation plans so, much more. Layer on top of that, Distance Learning. This blistering heatwave, the threat of Power Outages, and wildfires, and the stress could be as stifling at the temperature.
