A proposal to change Oakland International airports name may end up in court. The city of San Francisco now threatening to sue to block that potential change. Abc7 News ReporterGloria Rodriguez is tracking that story, so its all coming down to the use of three words. It does. Reggie the port of oakland board of commissioners is set to meet thursday to consider changing Oakland International airports name to San Francisco bay, Oakland International airport and its those words San Francisco bay that have San Francisco officials threatening to sue Oakland Airport officials are hoping the name change would help travelers understand theres another airport in the San Francisco area and possibly bring more tourists to the east bay, but San Francisco officials believe it will lead to confusion. And they say the name will violate trademarks held by sfo. City attorney david chiu has gone as far as sending a warning letter to the port of oakland. We also believe the currently proposed name infringes on sfos trademarks. Sfo has been in operation for almost a century. Since 1927, weve used San FranciscoInternational Airport or San Francisco airport throughout most of that history, adding San Francisco to it certainly makes it more attractive or more recognizable to those that are traveling, traveling from out of the state, out of the country. In a statement on monday, the port doubling down on the proposal, saying the proposed name modification will clarify, not confuse the new name identifies where o. R. K is actually located, which is on the San Francisco bay. If the proposed name modification is approved by the board, the port will take all appropriate measures to defend its right to use this accurate geographic identifier. But a travel industry analyst and marketing expert says the name change would cause confusion for travelers, saying that many might even accidentally fly to the wrong airport. Kumasi. All right. Thank you. Gloria. Happening today, u. S.

New. This morning, pfizer just released new data about its rsv vaccine. And amanda, that data suggests the shot could help younger adults with underlying medical conditions. Now thats right, kumasi pfizer tested its vaccine in people ages 18 to 59 with underlying medical conditions. Researchers saw the vaccine produced a similar response and side effect profile. As in prior studies, they say the vaccine was well tolerated and demonstrated an immune response no different to adults ages 60 and older. The Company Plans to ask the fda for approval based on these results, but there is no timeline for when it might get approved. Rsv is a viral infection that carries the greatest risk for the oldest and youngest people, but certain adults with underlying medical conditions, such as asthma, copd and diabetes are also more likely to be hospitalized if infected with rsv. Rsv can affect the lungs and breathing passages of an infected person, and can potentially cause severe illness. In the u. S. Alone, among older adults, rsv infections account for about 60,000 to 160,000 hospitalizations a year. Back to you, reggie. Thanks so much, amanda. If you bank at first republic, i know you dont.

And this morning, an economic warning from the man in charge of jp morgan chase. Hes still concerned about inflation and believes we might be in for more Interest Rate hikes. Heres abc News Reporter lionel moise this morning. The leader of the nations largest bank, jp morgan chase, is sounding the alarm that inflation could soar beyond 8 in the coming years, despite recent figures showing inflation has been cooling. In his annual letter to shareholders, jamie dimon said there has been too much emphasis on the short terme and not enough focus on long terme trends, writing huge fiscal spending, the trillions needed each year for the green economy, the remilitarization of the world and the restructuring of global trade. All are inflationary. Youve got the russian war in ukraine and the impact thats having on energy markets, oil markets, natural gas markets. Youve got the conflict in the middle east and thats disrupting supply chains and also is a threat to energy prices. And then just the rising tensions between the us and china. While experts agree on the Economic Impact of conflict, not everyone is on board with diamonds latest statements. You got to be humble when youre forecasting anything, particularly the economy. In 2022, diamond predicted a hurricane would hit the us economy, later admitting he was wrong. But his new warning reflects the pain of many households struggling to make ends meet. I love honeycrisp, but eight 9 for a bag of apples now thats not good. While inflation has fallen from a peak of more than 9, its still higher than the feds target of 2. But experts say it will take time for an everyday american hearing. This headline. Seeing these stories, what would your message be to them with each passing month . Things are getting better. Theres problems. Theres issues. Theres always risk. But the best scenario, the most likely scenario is that, you know, this economy is going to continue to be resilient and perform well going forward. In his letter, diamond also focused on the future of the economy, touting the impact of artificial intelligence, saying it could be as significant as the Printing Press or steam engine. He also highlighted the need for diversity, equity and inclusion programs, saying banks and Companies Must earn the trust of their communities.
