His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Gavin Newsom’s \u003ca href=\"https://resources.ca.gov/Newsroom/Page-Content/News-List/Newsom-Administration-Launches-30x30-Partnership\">30×30 conservation initiative\u003c/a> to preserve 30% of California’s land and coastal waters by 2030.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Land Back is not only a necessary way to repair harm done to indigenous people that’s been ongoing for generations, it’s also a way to save the planet,” said Burroughs, a member of the \u003ca href=\"https://drycreekrancheria.com/\">Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians\u003c/a> in Northern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NDN Collective’s \u003ca href=\"https://landback.org/\">national LANDBACK campaign\u003c/a> aims to bring together and support the many individual groups working to reclaim land across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The modern Land Back movement is nourished by the organizing power that came out of the Dakota Access Pipeline Protests in 2016–17, as well as the cultural shifts brought about by the Black Lives Matter movement. It’s also gotten a boost from the appointment of the first Native American cabinet member, Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland, who leads a department that oversees one-fifth of the land in this country. Since taking office, Haaland has \u003ca href=\"https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/interior-department-takes-steps-restore-tribal-homelands-empower-tribal-governments\">streamlined the process\u003c/a> for tribes to acquire and consolidate land, reversing a Trump administration policy, and has helped push forward \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bia.gov%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdup%2Finline-files%2Fdoi_annual_report_on_co-stewardship.pdf\">co-stewardship agreements (PDF)\u003c/a> for management of public lands with tribes across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we’re talking about returning land, often it’s not as radical as it seems,” said Kyle T.

But by the mid-20th century, with its coffers depleted by World War II, the federal government was looking to get out of its financial obligations to tribes, Mays said, including dissolving the Rancherias.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is when Sanchez made the promise to his grandmother that set him on the path to the Nicasio land.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Not just for the past, but for the future\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In 1956, his grandmother took him from his home in San Mateo to downtown San Francisco, where 400 Native Americans from around California were gathered at the San Francisco Civic Auditorium to take a vote \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23888665-rancheria-act-of-aug-18_-1958?responsive=1&title=1\">on a deal the Bureau of Indian Affairs was offering (PDF)\u003c/a>: a few hundred dollars per person in exchange for giving up their land rights.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Robby Burroughs, NDN Collective\"]‘Land back is not only a necessary way to repair harm done to indigenous people that’s been ongoing for generations, it’s also a way to save the planet.’[/pullquote]Sanchez remembers people taking to the stage to protest the idea. “‘We’ll lose our sovereignty.

Over 100 tribes across the country were cut off from federal assistance. Some were ordered to dissolve their governments and distribute their land. The U.S. wanted to assimilate members into mainstream society, and the efforts led to a mass migration from tribal lands to cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez watched the participants record their votes in pencil on small pieces of paper. Afterward, a BIA official announced the deal had passed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right away I felt the air just go out of the room,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was just a kid, who’d never heard the word “sovereignty” before that day, but he read a lot into the silence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I felt at the time was, like, that this had happened before,” Sanchez said. “It was just one loss after another, after another.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they got outside, his grandmother knelt down in front of him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She stopped and looked at me in the eyes and said, ‘Don’t ever forget you’re California Indian.

Once an aspiring rapper and movie star, Minadeo began building an online following through GoyimTV, a business he described as “informative educational entertainment” in papers filed with the state in 2021. The channel has thousands of followers on Gab, a social media app popular with white nationalists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo, 40, increasingly preaches antisemitism in public, too. The banner on the 405 was just one of several recent exploits he used to drive more people to GoyimTV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August, Minadeo attracted international attention when he traveled to Poland, where he was arrested at Auschwitz, the death camp where Nazis killed more than 1.1 million Jewish people. Beside him was Robert Wilson, a frequent public stunt partner who refers to himself as Aryan Bacon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://gab.com/HandsomeTruth/posts/108898845307282314\">photo posted to Gab\u003c/a>, Wilson smiles and Minadeo smirks as he holds up a sign attacking Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, an anti-hate organization dedicated to combating the denigration of Jewish people. According to reporting by Gabe Stutman, news editor of the Jewish News of Northern California, after the stunt Minadeo \u003ca href=\"https://jweekly.com/2022/09/04/polish-police-arrest-minadeo-during-white-supremacist-tour-of-europe/\">ranted that the Holocaust was a “f—ing hoax” and referred to the ADL as “an anti white terrorist organization” on Gab\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social media has provided the perfect conditions for a surge of antisemitism. Minadeo is a player in a world of far-right influencers who spread hatred of Jews and other extreme ideology on the internet, like Nick Fuentes, the Holocaust denier who \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/28/us/politics/trump-kanye-west-nick-fuentes-antisemitism.html\">had dinner with Ye and former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago in November\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the pandemic, Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent far-right politician, \u003ca class=\"c-link\" href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/21/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-mask-mandates-holocaust/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/21/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-mask-mandates-holocaust/index.html\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\" data-remove-tab-index=\"true\">compared a mask mandate to restrictions Nazis imposed on Jews during the Holocaust\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to an ADL \u003ca href=\"https://www.adl.org/resources/report/antisemitic-attitudes-america-topline-findings\"> survey of Americans published last month\u003c/a>, more than three-quarters — 85% — believe at least one anti-Jewish trope, such as Jewish people “stick together,” don’t share American values and hold too much power and influence in the world. That’s up 24 percentage points from three years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These sentiments are echoed in another antisemitic notion: that a secret cabal of Jewish people controls the world, a belief widely shared by adherents of the QAnon conspiracy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Goyim Defense League’s network is relatively small compared to those of other extremist groups in the United States, but people who monitor extremism say aggressive harassment of Jews and the perpetuation of the “great replacement theory” — a racist, conspiratorial narrative that white populations are covertly being replaced — has emboldened white supremacists and neo-Nazis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Stephen Piggott, researcher of white nationalism and antidemocracy groups, Western States Center\"]‘There’s no question that hate speech leads to an increase in hate violence … The GDL are not simply these keyboard warriors.

In the past year, thousands of flyers linked to the Goyim Defense League and containing conspiracy theories have appeared across the country, from California to Minnesota to Wisconsin and to Florida, where Minadeo is currently agitating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Berkeley yoga studio owner’s effort to spread awareness about Minadeo may have contributed to why Minadeo left the Bay Area late last year.

He raised his right, outstretched arm with the palm of his hand flat and pointed downward. The salute is arguably the most recognizable — and appropriated — symbol of Nazism besides the swastika, an ancient religious symbol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shock-jock broadcasts include antisemitic diatribes, racist memes and mash-ups of footage of the Third Reich, the Nazi regime that purposefully guided the genocide of 6 million Jewish people. Minadeo also baits young people on platforms like Omegle by engaging Jewish, LGBTQ or BIPOC teenagers in conversation by pretending to accept them before shouting racist, homophobic insults until they exit the chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Internet service providers have tried to curb GoyimTV’s reach. The channel has been kicked off the internet several times, but each time, streaming resumed on a new server within a matter of days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo reads viewer comments from people who donate, raising hundreds of dollars during each livestream, and has extended his reach by encouraging followers to distribute antisemitic flyers, which can be downloaded from his site for free. Some of the flyers feature Jewish politicians and business leaders with the Star of David emblazoned on their foreheads, a crude reminder of the dehumanizing persecution of Jewish people who were forced to wear identifying badges during the Holocaust. “These flyers were distributed randomly without malicious intent,” a disclaimer at the bottom of the flyers reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo instructs viewers on how to clandestinely distribute the flyers and promises a free T-shirt to anyone who gets news coverage for their flyer drops. He shares videos from those who spread hate, including one that shows a person driving around an unidentified neighborhood while tossing flyers onto lawns. Another appears to be taken by a woman as she walks through a parking lot, placing flyers on car windshields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940816\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940816\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick.jpg\" alt=\"middle-aged white woman with blonde hair sits at a desk looking intently into her laptop\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1278\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-1536x1022.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teresa Drenick, deputy regional director for the Central Pacific Region for the Anti-Defamation League, in her office. \u003ccite>(Monica Lam/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The ADL has closely monitored the flyering incidents.

He also released rap songs under the name Shoobie Da Wop, including “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pufs_Ertcwo\">My Name Is Shoobie\u003c/a>,” a song that borrows liberally from Too $hort, a Bay Area hip-hop legend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview with a KQED reporter, a former high school classmate of Minadeo described him as “the popular, cool guy.” But the classmate, a longtime Petaluma resident, thinks differently after watching a few of Minadeo’s livestreams. He was particularly disturbed by the way Minadeo uses Omegle, a website that randomly pairs strangers for video chats, to scream slurs at children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m waiting for the day when they can get him with something,” said the former classmate, who requested anonymity because he fears retaliation. “At least sue him or take his website down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Jeff Renfro, yoga studio owner\"]‘You have to watch [the videos] to realize how evil they are.

He’s been over to my house.”[/pullquote]When Petaluma resident Jeff Renfro met Minadeo in 2013, he said he found him a little awkward. Renfro and his wife, Lynn Whitlow, own Funky Door Yoga in Berkeley and Yoga Hell in Petaluma, where a woman engaged to Minadeo at the time, Kelly Johnson, worked as a teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro, who is Jewish, wasn’t aware of Minadeo’s antisemitic beliefs. He said he initially bonded with Johnson and Minadeo because all three were recovering from substance use disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Renfro and Whitlow offered to make Johnson a partner in the purchase of a new studio, Hella Yoga in Berkeley. According to Renfro, Minadeo loaned Johnson $50,000 to purchase an ownership stake and often came to the studio to help with renovations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Renfro noticed a change in the couple during the pandemic. Minadeo refused to get vaccinated, and was no longer allowed inside the studio. Instead, Renfro said, he would sit in his car and vape for hours while Johnson taught classes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson, who seemed distracted and distant, started making offensive comments. In 2021, she said something that really shook Renfro. After Johnson returned from visiting her mother, he asked how her flight went.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She said, ‘I had to sit down next to these — they were like these smelly Jews wearing one of those hats and stuff,’” Renfro recalled. It struck a nerve. “When someone says they sat next to dirty, ‘smelly Jews’ on the airplane and you’re Jewish, you don’t forget that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940826\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940826\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut.jpg\" alt=\"close-up portrait of a middle aged white man standing in a doorway, with one hand on the red-painted door frame\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1282\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/RS62606_02032023_jeffrenfro-038-qut-1536x1026.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Petaluma resident Jeff Renfro stands at the entrance to Funky Door Yoga in Berkeley, which he co-owns. \u003ccite>(Kori Suzuki/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Renfro searched Minadeo’s name online, and found the GoyimTV site selling Hitler T-shirts, including one that read, “Auschwitz was a country club.” Then he watched dozens of Minadeo’s videos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You have to watch them to realize how evil they are.

He confronted Johnson, but she denied knowledge of Minadeo’s activities. Last March, when news reports identified her connection to Minadeo, Renfro fired Johnson, bought her stake in the yoga studio and closed the business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To expose Minadeo, Renfro said he contacted the FBI, the ADL and several Bay Area journalists. After articles featuring his name were published, Renfro said he received threatening phone calls from people. He was called an “[N-word] lover” and told to watch his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to kill you, k—,” one person said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro also received calls of support. One woman, who said she was imprisoned at Auschwitz when she was 6, told him the flyers were terrifying. The woman became so scared she didn’t want to leave her house, Renfro recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, Minadeo played a video during a livestream to announce that he was leaving California. “My time in this state is over,” he said. The rest of the announcement played like a theatrical trailer replete with scenes of angry reactions to his stunts. The video culminates with ominous music that punctuates the words that scrawl across the screen: “California was just the beginning” and “Florida you’re next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo has been delivering on that promise. On Jan. 23, he \u003ca href=\"https://gab.com/HandsomeTruth/posts/109741203088175009\">spoke at an Orlando City Council meeting\u003c/a>, identifying himself as a Jewish, LGBTQ advocate named Tammy Cohen. Wearing heavy eyeshadow and a yarmulke, he read several GDL flyers. He said that instead of demonizing the people who distribute them, Jews should admit that the flyers are “factual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Less than a week later, Minadeo and four others were \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/news/local-neo-nazi-jon-minadeo-cited-for-littering-with-flyers-in-florida/\">cited in Palm Beach for littering after “they were apprehended tossing weighted baggies containing propaganda sheets targeting Jews,”\u003c/a> according to The Press Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro has reached out to groups in Florida to warn them about Minadeo. Tracking his whereabouts has become like a second job, he said, and he won’t stop just because Minadeo left California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I watch what he does, it’s like not really a choice,” Renfro said. “You can’t ignore it.”\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Once an aspiring rapper and movie star, Minadeo began building an online following through GoyimTV, a business he described as “informative educational entertainment” in papers filed with the state in 2021. The channel has thousands of followers on Gab, a social media app popular with white nationalists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo, 40, increasingly preaches antisemitism in public, too. The banner on the 405 was just one of several recent exploits he used to drive more people to GoyimTV.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In August, Minadeo attracted international attention when he traveled to Poland, where he was arrested at Auschwitz, the death camp where Nazis killed more than 1.1 million Jewish people. Beside him was Robert Wilson, a frequent public stunt partner who refers to himself as Aryan Bacon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://gab.com/HandsomeTruth/posts/108898845307282314\">photo posted to Gab\u003c/a>, Wilson smiles and Minadeo smirks as he holds up a sign attacking Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, an anti-hate organization dedicated to combating the denigration of Jewish people. According to reporting by Gabe Stutman, news editor of the Jewish News of Northern California, after the stunt Minadeo \u003ca href=\"https://jweekly.com/2022/09/04/polish-police-arrest-minadeo-during-white-supremacist-tour-of-europe/\">ranted that the Holocaust was a “f—ing hoax” and referred to the ADL as “an anti white terrorist organization” on Gab\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social media has provided the perfect conditions for a surge of antisemitism. Minadeo is a player in a world of far-right influencers who spread hatred of Jews and other extreme ideology on the internet, like Nick Fuentes, the Holocaust denier who \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/28/us/politics/trump-kanye-west-nick-fuentes-antisemitism.html\">had dinner with Ye and former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago in November\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the pandemic, Marjorie Taylor Greene, a prominent far-right politician, \u003ca class=\"c-link\" href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/21/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-mask-mandates-holocaust/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https://www.cnn.com/2021/05/21/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-mask-mandates-holocaust/index.html\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\" data-remove-tab-index=\"true\">compared a mask mandate to restrictions Nazis imposed on Jews during the Holocaust\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to an ADL \u003ca href=\"https://www.adl.org/resources/report/antisemitic-attitudes-america-topline-findings\"> survey of Americans published last month\u003c/a>, more than three-quarters — 85% — believe at least one anti-Jewish trope, such as Jewish people “stick together,” don’t share American values and hold too much power and influence in the world. That’s up 24 percentage points from three years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These sentiments are echoed in another antisemitic notion: that a secret cabal of Jewish people controls the world, a belief widely shared by adherents of the QAnon conspiracy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Goyim Defense League’s network is relatively small compared to those of other extremist groups in the United States, but people who monitor extremism say aggressive harassment of Jews and the perpetuation of the “great replacement theory” — a racist, conspiratorial narrative that white populations are covertly being replaced — has emboldened white supremacists and neo-Nazis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In the past year, thousands of flyers linked to the Goyim Defense League and containing conspiracy theories have appeared across the country, from California to Minnesota to Wisconsin and to Florida, where Minadeo is currently agitating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Berkeley yoga studio owner’s effort to spread awareness about Minadeo may have contributed to why Minadeo left the Bay Area late last year. Nothing, though, has stopped him from spreading hate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo typically starts his livestreams by proclaiming, “Let’s expose these Jewish lies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one recent broadcast, Minadeo sported a white linen jacket, sunglasses and a gold chain with a swastika pendant. He raised his right, outstretched arm with the palm of his hand flat and pointed downward. The salute is arguably the most recognizable — and appropriated — symbol of Nazism besides the swastika, an ancient religious symbol.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The shock-jock broadcasts include antisemitic diatribes, racist memes and mash-ups of footage of the Third Reich, the Nazi regime that purposefully guided the genocide of 6 million Jewish people. Minadeo also baits young people on platforms like Omegle by engaging Jewish, LGBTQ or BIPOC teenagers in conversation by pretending to accept them before shouting racist, homophobic insults until they exit the chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Internet service providers have tried to curb GoyimTV’s reach. The channel has been kicked off the internet several times, but each time, streaming resumed on a new server within a matter of days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo reads viewer comments from people who donate, raising hundreds of dollars during each livestream, and has extended his reach by encouraging followers to distribute antisemitic flyers, which can be downloaded from his site for free. Some of the flyers feature Jewish politicians and business leaders with the Star of David emblazoned on their foreheads, a crude reminder of the dehumanizing persecution of Jewish people who were forced to wear identifying badges during the Holocaust. “These flyers were distributed randomly without malicious intent,” a disclaimer at the bottom of the flyers reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo instructs viewers on how to clandestinely distribute the flyers and promises a free T-shirt to anyone who gets news coverage for their flyer drops. He shares videos from those who spread hate, including one that shows a person driving around an unidentified neighborhood while tossing flyers onto lawns. Another appears to be taken by a woman as she walks through a parking lot, placing flyers on car windshields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11940816\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11940816\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick.jpg\" alt=\"middle-aged white woman with blonde hair sits at a desk looking intently into her laptop\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1278\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-1020x679.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/02/ADL-Teresa-Drenick-1536x1022.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teresa Drenick, deputy regional director for the Central Pacific Region for the Anti-Defamation League, in her office. \u003ccite>(Monica Lam/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The ADL has closely monitored the flyering incidents.

Renfro and his wife, Lynn Whitlow, own Funky Door Yoga in Berkeley and Yoga Hell in Petaluma, where a woman engaged to Minadeo at the time, Kelly Johnson, worked as a teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro, who is Jewish, wasn’t aware of Minadeo’s antisemitic beliefs. He said he initially bonded with Johnson and Minadeo because all three were recovering from substance use disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Renfro and Whitlow offered to make Johnson a partner in the purchase of a new studio, Hella Yoga in Berkeley. According to Renfro, Minadeo loaned Johnson $50,000 to purchase an ownership stake and often came to the studio to help with renovations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Renfro noticed a change in the couple during the pandemic. Minadeo refused to get vaccinated, and was no longer allowed inside the studio. Instead, Renfro said, he would sit in his car and vape for hours while Johnson taught classes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson, who seemed distracted and distant, started making offensive comments. In 2021, she said something that really shook Renfro. After Johnson returned from visiting her mother, he asked how her flight went.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She said, ‘I had to sit down next to these — they were like these smelly Jews wearing one of those hats and stuff,’” Renfro recalled.

He confronted Johnson, but she denied knowledge of Minadeo’s activities. Last March, when news reports identified her connection to Minadeo, Renfro fired Johnson, bought her stake in the yoga studio and closed the business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To expose Minadeo, Renfro said he contacted the FBI, the ADL and several Bay Area journalists. After articles featuring his name were published, Renfro said he received threatening phone calls from people. He was called an “[N-word] lover” and told to watch his back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to kill you, k—,” one person said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro also received calls of support. One woman, who said she was imprisoned at Auschwitz when she was 6, told him the flyers were terrifying. The woman became so scared she didn’t want to leave her house, Renfro recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December, Minadeo played a video during a livestream to announce that he was leaving California. “My time in this state is over,” he said. The rest of the announcement played like a theatrical trailer replete with scenes of angry reactions to his stunts. The video culminates with ominous music that punctuates the words that scrawl across the screen: “California was just the beginning” and “Florida you’re next.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Minadeo has been delivering on that promise. On Jan. 23, he \u003ca href=\"https://gab.com/HandsomeTruth/posts/109741203088175009\">spoke at an Orlando City Council meeting\u003c/a>, identifying himself as a Jewish, LGBTQ advocate named Tammy Cohen. Wearing heavy eyeshadow and a yarmulke, he read several GDL flyers. He said that instead of demonizing the people who distribute them, Jews should admit that the flyers are “factual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Less than a week later, Minadeo and four others were \u003ca href=\"https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/news/local-neo-nazi-jon-minadeo-cited-for-littering-with-flyers-in-florida/\">cited in Palm Beach for littering after “they were apprehended tossing weighted baggies containing propaganda sheets targeting Jews,”\u003c/a> according to The Press Democrat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renfro has reached out to groups in Florida to warn them about Minadeo. Tracking his whereabouts has become like a second job, he said, and he won’t stop just because Minadeo left California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I watch what he does, it’s like not really a choice,” Renfro said. “You can’t ignore it.”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Still, there are signs that the omicron surge is starting to climb down from its peak, as test positivity rates dropped from a high of 23% to 20%. But hospitals are still scrambling and death rates are still nearly double what they were a month ago.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guest:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Matt Willis, Marin County public health officer\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Judge LaDoris Cordell’s “Her Honor”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell shattered glass ceilings when she became the first African American female judge in Northern California. Cordell, now retired, is calling out America’s criminal justice system for racial and ethnic bias, which study after study has also highlighted. She says the courts regularly and unfairly punish people of color more severely than white people and she has plenty of ideas for how to fix the system. Cordell shares her insights in her recent book, “\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Her Honor: My Life on the Bench… What Works, What’s Broken, and How to Change It.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guest:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Judge LaDoris Cordell, author, “Her Honor” \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>This Week in California News & Politics\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Despite the good news that COVID cases may be declining, the impact of the pandemic continues to be felt everywhere. Gov. Gavin Newsom and some lawmakers are looking to ramp up work-place COVID vaccine mandates and even remove the personal belief exemption. The issue of whether or not to require vaccination is also playing a role in the state Assembly race for David Chiu’s seat, which he vacated to take the job of San Francisco’s City Attorney.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tsunami advisories were issued for Hawaii, Alaska and the U.S. Pacific coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beaches in San Francisco and Marin County, the Berkeley Marina and waterfronts across the Bay Area were closed for public access Saturday in anticipation of higher tides. Damage caused by flooding was visible in the region across social media, from damaged docks in Marin County to submerged vehicles in Santa Cruz Harbor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CalFire reported that two fishermen were hospitalized after being swept in by the high tides at San Gregorio State Beach in San Mateo County. One was transported by helicopter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Garcia at the National Weather Service Bay Area \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1mrxmalRrjQxy\">said in a 12:30 p.m. update\u003c/a> that the ongoing tsunami advisory was needed as surges continue to hit the Bay Area, but that relief was on the way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The overall water height is coming down as we head towards low tide,” he said, but in that low tide “we continue to have the tsunami roll through.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CALFIRECZU/status/1482455516701884416\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the water height may not be as high as the Bay Area experienced earlier in the day, the ripples of tsunami height may cause unexpected wave amplitude.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even as the tide lowers, it can still run up the beach, grab you, your pets, your family, your loved ones, and take you out to sea as it recedes,” Garcia said. “So, it’s still a dangerous situation out there. Best course of action: Continue to remain away from the water, continue to remain up high. Don’t even go to the coast. Today’s just not the day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, Mary Ellen Carroll, executive director of the Department of Emergency Management, said she didn’t fear residential flooding but “we really want to keep people away from the water.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s especially crucial as the city’s public safety systems are “very, very strained at the moment” by the pandemic, she said, “so we are asking everyone to please keep themselves safe. Of course, we will respond as needed, but everyone is really stretched thin right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/TedrickG/status/1482358329967923203\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The explosion of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano was the latest in a series of dramatic eruptions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earth-imaging company Planet Labs PBC had watched the island in recent days after a new volcanic vent there began erupting in late December.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Satellite images captured by the company show how drastically the volcano had shaped the area, creating a growing island off Tonga.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The surface area of the island appears to have expanded by nearly 45% due to ashfall,” Planet Labs said days before the latest activity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following Saturday’s eruption, residents in Hawaii, in Alaska and along the U.S. Pacific coast were advised to move away from the coastline to higher ground and to pay attention to specific instructions from their local emergency management officials, said Dave Snider, tsunami warning coordinator for the National Tsunami Warning Center in Palmer, Alaska.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t issue an advisory for this length of coastline as we’ve done — I’m not sure when the last time was — but it really isn’t an everyday experience,” Snider said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the waves slamming ashore in Hawaii were just under the criteria for a more serious tsunami warning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beaches and piers were closed across Southern California as a precaution. The National Weather Service tweeted there were “no significant concerns about inundation.” Strong rip currents were possible, however, and officials warned people to stay out of the water.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/MarinSheriff/status/1482420800737013762\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On California’s central coast, the National Weather Service reported tsunami waves of up to 2.5 feet and flooding in beach parking lots at Port San Luis. About 200 miles down the coast, the waves were much smaller at Southern California’s Seal Beach, according to Michael Pless, the owner of M&M Surfing School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The waves are looking pretty flat,” Pless said. “We’re hoping they reopen the beach in a couple hours.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crowds gathered at the Santa Cruz Harbor to watch the rising and falling water strain boat ties on docks. Law enforcement tried to clear people away when big surges started at around 7:30 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About an hour later, a surge went over the back lip of the harbor, filling a parking lot and low-lying streets and setting some cars afloat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jason Hoppin, communications manager of Santa Cruz County, said officials have been inspecting for damage. Hoppin said that in previous years with tsunami advisories, millions of dollars in damage hit Santa Cruz’s harbor. In 2011, waves from Japan’s Sendai earthquake caused more than $20 million in damage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re asking people to stay out of the water, even surfing, which is a little bit difficult for some of our residents. But it’s the best and safest thing to do right now,” Hoppin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley, residents aboard houseboats at the Berkeley Marina were ordered to evacuate on Saturday morning. Residents told KQED they were given more warning this weekend than during the last tsunami advisory in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looks like everybody has stepped up their tsunami preparedness,” Berkeley Marina resident Brian Cline said. “The police were down here making it very clear that everybody needs to get off their boats and head to shore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cline grabbed hard drives, a camera, extra clothes and cash, and he booked it. Another Berkeley Marina resident, Kat Schaaf, said she got the evacuation order at about 7 a.m., which was starkly different from when the 2011 tsunami waves caused by the Sendai earthquake in Japan rocked the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When Sendai happened, nobody warned us,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tonga, home to about 105,000 people, video posted to social media showed large waves washing ashore in coastal areas, swirling around homes, a church and other buildings. Satellite images showed a huge eruption, with a plume of ash, steam and gas rising like a mushroom above the blue Pacific waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Zealand’s military said it was monitoring the situation and remained on standby, ready to assist if asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were no immediate reports of injuries or on the extent of the damage because all internet connectivity with Tonga was lost at about 6:40 p.m. local time, said Doug Madory, director of internet analysis for the network intelligence firm Kentik.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tonga gets its internet via an undersea cable from Suva, Fiji, which presumably was damaged. Southern Cross Cable Network, the company that manages the connection, does not know yet “if the cable is cut or just suffering power loss,” Chief Technical Officer Dean Veverka said. He said he assumed the eruption was responsible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CALFIRECZU/status/1482372078581940230\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tonga’s Islands Business news site reported that a convoy of police and military troops evacuated King Tupou VI from his palace near the shore. He was among the many residents who headed for higher ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tonga Meteorological Service said a tsunami warning was declared for all of the archipelagoes, and data from the Pacific tsunami center said waves of 2.7 feet were detected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Twitter user identified as Dr. Faka’iloatonga Taumoefolau posted video showing waves crashing ashore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Can literally hear the volcano eruption, sounds pretty violent,” he wrote, adding in a later post: “Raining ash and tiny pebbles, darkness blanketing the sky.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/NWSBayArea/status/1482373568474222600\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looks like everything will stay below the warning level, but it’s difficult to predict because this is a volcanic eruption, and we’re set up to measure earthquake or seismic-driven sea waves,” said Snider, the tsunami warning coordinator in Palmer, Alaska.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first waves to hit the continental United States measured about 1 foot in Nikolski and Adak, Alaska. A wave just shy of a foot tall was observed in Monterey, California, the U.S. National Tsunami Warning Center said in a tweet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Residents of American Samoa were alerted of a tsunami warning by local broadcasters as well as church bells that rang territory-wide Saturday. An outdoor siren warning system was out of service. Those living along the shoreline quickly moved to higher ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As night fell, there were no reports of any damage, and the Hawaii-based tsunami center canceled the alert.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Authorities in the nearby island nations of Fiji and Samoa also issued warnings, telling people to avoid the shoreline due to strong currents and dangerous waves. In New Zealand, officials warned of possible storm surges from the eruption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Zealand’s private forecaster, WeatherWatch, tweeted that people as far away as Southland, the country’s southernmost region, reported hearing sonic booms from the eruption. Others reported that many boats were damaged by a tsunami that hit a marina in Whangarei, in the Northland region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier, the Matangi Tonga news site reported that scientists observed massive explosions, thunder and lightning near the volcano after it started erupting early Friday. Satellite images showed a 3-mile-wide plume rising into the air to about 12 miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano is located about 40 miles north of the capital, Nuku’alofa. In late 2014 and early 2015, a series of eruptions in the area created a small new island and disrupted international air travel to the Pacific archipelago for several days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/scsentinel/status/1482396189416845315\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is not a significant difference between volcanoes underwater and on land, and underwater volcanoes become bigger as they erupt, at some point usually breaching the surface, said Hans Schwaiger, a research geophysicist with the Alaska Volcano Observatory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With underwater volcanoes, however, the water can add to the explosiveness of the eruption as it hits the lava, Schwaiger added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before an explosion, there is generally an increase in small local earthquakes at the volcano, but depending on how far it is from land, that may not be felt by residents along the shoreline, Schwaiger said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2019, Tonga lost internet access for nearly two weeks when a fiber-optic cable was severed. The director of the local cable company said at the time that a large ship may have cut the cable by dragging an anchor. Until limited satellite access was restored, people couldn’t even make international calls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Southern Cross Cable Network’s Veverka said limited satellite connections exist between Tonga and other parts of the world but he did not know whether they might be affected by power outages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s Joe Fitzgerald Rodriguez, Raquel Maria Dillon, Sara Hossaini and Azul Dahlstrom-Eckman contributed to this report. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press writers Nick Perry, Jennifer McDermott in Providence, Rhode Island, Martha Mendoza in Santa Cruz, California, Frank Bajak in Boston, Mari Yamaguchi in Tokyo, Fili Sagapolutele in Pago Pago, American Samoa, Jon Gambrell in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and Christopher Weber in Los Angeles contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

About 200 miles down the coast, the waves were much smaller at Southern California’s Seal Beach, according to Michael Pless, the owner of M&M Surfing School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The waves are looking pretty flat,” Pless said. “We’re hoping they reopen the beach in a couple hours.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crowds gathered at the Santa Cruz Harbor to watch the rising and falling water strain boat ties on docks. Law enforcement tried to clear people away when big surges started at around 7:30 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About an hour later, a surge went over the back lip of the harbor, filling a parking lot and low-lying streets and setting some cars afloat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jason Hoppin, communications manager of Santa Cruz County, said officials have been inspecting for damage. Hoppin said that in previous years with tsunami advisories, millions of dollars in damage hit Santa Cruz’s harbor. In 2011, waves from Japan’s Sendai earthquake caused more than $20 million in damage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re asking people to stay out of the water, even surfing, which is a little bit difficult for some of our residents. But it’s the best and safest thing to do right now,” Hoppin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Berkeley, residents aboard houseboats at the Berkeley Marina were ordered to evacuate on Saturday morning. Residents told KQED they were given more warning this weekend than during the last tsunami advisory in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looks like everybody has stepped up their tsunami preparedness,” Berkeley Marina resident Brian Cline said. “The police were down here making it very clear that everybody needs to get off their boats and head to shore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cline grabbed hard drives, a camera, extra clothes and cash, and he booked it. Another Berkeley Marina resident, Kat Schaaf, said she got the evacuation order at about 7 a.m., which was starkly different from when the 2011 tsunami waves caused by the Sendai earthquake in Japan rocked the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When Sendai happened, nobody warned us,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tonga, home to about 105,000 people, video posted to social media showed large waves washing ashore in coastal areas, swirling around homes, a church and other buildings. Satellite images showed a huge eruption, with a plume of ash, steam and gas rising like a mushroom above the blue Pacific waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Zealand’s military said it was monitoring the situation and remained on standby, ready to assist if asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were no immediate reports of injuries or on the extent of the damage because all internet connectivity with Tonga was lost at about 6:40 p.m. local time, said Doug Madory, director of internet analysis for the network intelligence firm Kentik.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tonga gets its internet via an undersea cable from Suva, Fiji, which presumably was damaged. Southern Cross Cable Network, the company that manages the connection, does not know yet “if the cable is cut or just suffering power loss,” Chief Technical Officer Dean Veverka said. He said he assumed the eruption was responsible.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Even as California prepares to expand vaccine eligibility on April 15 to all residents 16 and older, the state has managed to inoculate only about half its senior population — the 65-and-older target group deemed most vulnerable to death and serious illness in the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overall, nearly 56% of California seniors have received the full course of a COVID-19 vaccine, according to the latest \u003ca href=\"https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccinations\">data from the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u003c/a>. That’s about average compared with other states — not nearly as high as places like South Dakota, where almost 74% of seniors are fully vaccinated, but also not as far behind as Hawaii, which has reached 44%. The data, current as of Tuesday, does not include seniors who have received only the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine. [aside tag=\"vaccines\" label=\"more vaccine coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But California’s overall progress masks huge variations in senior vaccination rates among the state’s 58 counties, which largely are running their own vaccine rollouts with different eligibility rules and outreach protocols. The discrepancies notably break down by geographic region, with the state’s remote rural counties — generally conservative strongholds — in some cases struggling to give away available doses, while the more populous — and generally left-leaning — metropolitan areas often have far more demand than supply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco Bay Area counties like Marin and Contra Costa, for example, more than two-thirds of seniors are fully vaccinated. Meanwhile, in the far northern reaches of the state, encompassing some of California’s most dramatic and rugged terrain, rural counties like Tehama, Shasta and Del Norte have fully vaccinated only about a third of senior residents, according to CDC data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We definitely share one thing in common and that is that we have a fairly high percentage of people who are vaccine hesitant. And that even spreads into the seniors,” Dr. Warren Rehwaldt, health officer for Del Norte County, said of the Northern California counties with relatively low vaccination rates. Del Norte, which is 62% white and voted solidly for Donald Trump in the 2020 election, has vaccinated 36.6% of residents 65 and older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county, population 28,000, has spotty internet service, leaving the health department reliant on phone appointments for its twice-weekly clinics, which have the capacity to give out 300 doses in a day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think we have filled any of them completely, and they are tapering off,” Rehwaldt said. Often, 100 or more appointment slots go unused, even after the county expanded eligibility to age 50 and up. “We expected that, but we didn’t expect it this fast,” he said. [pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Dr. Warren Rehwaldt, health officer for Del Norte County']'[It's] a really high hurdle to overcome serious misgivings about the vaccine itself'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Every Thursday morning, Rehwaldt joins a local public radio broadcast to encourage people to get their shots, and the department regularly airs public service announcements. “But it’s a really high hurdle to overcome serious misgivings about the vaccine itself,” Rehwaldt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked what resources might help bolster vaccination rates, Rehwaldt said he’d opt for a mobile van to travel to remote areas of his county. But moments later, he sighed and said he wasn’t sure a van would help much after all. “What kind of resources are going to overcome hesitancy? It’s not a resource problem,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shasta County, whose population is about 80% white and voted in even stronger numbers for Trump, is also struggling to reach the 65-plus group, with just 36.6% of seniors fully vaccinated. Public information officer Kerri Schuette acknowledged health workers were encountering some hesitancy among residents but said their efforts also were hampered by early supply issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other end of the spectrum are counties like Marin, a largely suburban and affluent stretch of communities just north of San Francisco where 71.4% of seniors are fully vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a thread of privilege that does lead to ease of access to vaccines that needs to be acknowledged,” said county Public Health Officer Dr. Matt Willis. Many seniors in the county have access to computers and cars, he said, and have been able to access vaccine appointments with relative ease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the county made an aggressive plan to vaccinate seniors even before the first doses arrived, he said. Rather than waiting for the federal government’s program that relied on pharmacies to vaccinate residents in long-term care facilities, for example, the health department sent in workers as soon as it had vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county also kept its eligibility rules tightly focused on seniors ages 75 and older through the middle of February, while other counties were expanding to younger age groups and a broad array of occupations. At one point, the county briefly expanded eligibility to teachers, but pulled back just one week later when doses grew scarce. [aside tag=\"coronavirus, covid-19\" label=\"more coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We showed that a dose offered to someone 75 and older in Marin was 320 times more likely to save a life than a dose offered to someone younger than 50,” Willis said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Contra Costa County, a more diverse area on the other side of San Francisco Bay, has done nearly as well: 70.9% of seniors are fully vaccinated. Add in those who have received at least one dose, and the numbers are far higher: 90% of people ages 65-74 and 97% of those 75 and older, according to the county’s vaccine tracker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To reach vulnerable seniors, Dr. Ori Tzvieli, Contra Costa’s deputy health officer, said the county worked with nonprofit groups to make lists of residential care facilities and low-income senior housing, then sent mobile clinics to each one. “For people who were literally homebound, we send someone inside. Otherwise, we set up a station in the lobby or right outside,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county also set up mobile clinics at farms and places of worship. It gave community health workers dedicated appointments to sign up older residents directly. And rather than have residents track down their own appointment slots online, the department had people fill out forms and then scheduled appointments for them, prioritizing those who lived in low-income ZIP codes with high rates of disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a population of just over 1 million, Contra Costa County now is able to vaccinate 100,000 people a week, Tzvieli said, and has recently opened eligibility to everyone 16 and older. But even within the county, inequalities remain. In Bay Point, for example, a largely working-class Latino community, vaccination rates are still just half of those of some wealthier communities, Tzvieli said. [ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Farther south, in California’s agricultural Central Valley, Fresno County falls somewhere in the middle on vaccination rates. About 54% of seniors 65-plus are fully vaccinated, just under the state average. Just more than half the county’s residents are Latino, many of them farmworkers. And about a fifth of the population lives in poverty, which presents its own hurdles to a vaccination campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Poverty immobilizes, physically and mentally,” said Joe Prado, community health division manager in Fresno County. “For a wealthier population, going 3 to 5 miles away [to a vaccine clinic] is simple; you hop in the car and go. But if you’re living in poverty, that’s a big barrier.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are community pockets that have not engaged with the county health system, meaning health officials are coming up against vaccine hesitancy and distrust, Prado added. “Our health literacy is nowhere near where it should be, and now there’s a digital literacy problem, too,” he said. “We’re trying to deal with all this in the middle of a pandemic.” [pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Joe Prado, community health division manager in Fresno County']'Poverty immobilizes, physically and mentally ... For a wealthier population, going 3 to 5 miles away [to a vaccine clinic] is simple; you hop in the car and go. But if you’re living in poverty, that’s a big barrier.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point in the campaign, Prado said, most seniors eager for the vaccine have received at least an initial dose: “The final 25% is going to be the most resource-intensive, the most difficult to reach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious-disease specialist at Vanderbilt University, calls this public health’s “low-hanging fruit phenomenon.” As the proportion of people who are vaccinated grows, he said, “we’ll have to work proportionally harder to keep advancing these numbers, because the eager beavers go first.” In rural counties from California to Tennessee, he added, supply is already outpacing demand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, just more than 75% of seniors in the U.S. have received at least one dose of vaccine, according to the CDC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can look at that as the glass is half-empty or half-full,” said Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, during a recent episode of his weekly podcast. That still leaves more than 13 million seniors unprotected despite facing the highest risk of death; 8 in 10 deaths from COVID-19 reported in the U.S. have been among adults 65 and older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is crucial, Osterholm said, that states continue to direct efforts toward reaching and vaccinating vulnerable seniors who are homebound or hesitant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we say we’re going to open up eligibility to everybody 16 or 18 years and older, that seems like a victory,” he said. “In many states, that is an admission of defeat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KHN senior correspondent Anna Maria Barry-Jester contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KHN (Kaiser Health News) is a national newsroom that produces in-depth journalism about health issues.

But moments later, he sighed and said he wasn’t sure a van would help much after all. “What kind of resources are going to overcome hesitancy? It’s not a resource problem,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shasta County, whose population is about 80% white and voted in even stronger numbers for Trump, is also struggling to reach the 65-plus group, with just 36.6% of seniors fully vaccinated. Public information officer Kerri Schuette acknowledged health workers were encountering some hesitancy among residents but said their efforts also were hampered by early supply issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other end of the spectrum are counties like Marin, a largely suburban and affluent stretch of communities just north of San Francisco where 71.4% of seniors are fully vaccinated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a thread of privilege that does lead to ease of access to vaccines that needs to be acknowledged,” said county Public Health Officer Dr. Matt Willis. Many seniors in the county have access to computers and cars, he said, and have been able to access vaccine appointments with relative ease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the county made an aggressive plan to vaccinate seniors even before the first doses arrived, he said. Rather than waiting for the federal government’s program that relied on pharmacies to vaccinate residents in long-term care facilities, for example, the health department sent in workers as soon as it had vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county also kept its eligibility rules tightly focused on seniors ages 75 and older through the middle of February, while other counties were expanding to younger age groups and a broad array of occupations. At one point, the county briefly expanded eligibility to teachers, but pulled back just one week later when doses grew scarce. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Add in those who have received at least one dose, and the numbers are far higher: 90% of people ages 65-74 and 97% of those 75 and older, according to the county’s vaccine tracker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To reach vulnerable seniors, Dr. Ori Tzvieli, Contra Costa’s deputy health officer, said the county worked with nonprofit groups to make lists of residential care facilities and low-income senior housing, then sent mobile clinics to each one. “For people who were literally homebound, we send someone inside. Otherwise, we set up a station in the lobby or right outside,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The county also set up mobile clinics at farms and places of worship. It gave community health workers dedicated appointments to sign up older residents directly. And rather than have residents track down their own appointment slots online, the department had people fill out forms and then scheduled appointments for them, prioritizing those who lived in low-income ZIP codes with high rates of disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With a population of just over 1 million, Contra Costa County now is able to vaccinate 100,000 people a week, Tzvieli said, and has recently opened eligibility to everyone 16 and older. But even within the county, inequalities remain. In Bay Point, for example, a largely working-class Latino community, vaccination rates are still just half of those of some wealthier communities, Tzvieli said. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

About 54% of seniors 65-plus are fully vaccinated, just under the state average. Just more than half the county’s residents are Latino, many of them farmworkers. And about a fifth of the population lives in poverty, which presents its own hurdles to a vaccination campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Poverty immobilizes, physically and mentally,” said Joe Prado, community health division manager in Fresno County. “For a wealthier population, going 3 to 5 miles away [to a vaccine clinic] is simple; you hop in the car and go. But if you’re living in poverty, that’s a big barrier.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are community pockets that have not engaged with the county health system, meaning health officials are coming up against vaccine hesitancy and distrust, Prado added. “Our health literacy is nowhere near where it should be, and now there’s a digital literacy problem, too,” he said. “We’re trying to deal with all this in the middle of a pandemic.” \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That still leaves more than 13 million seniors unprotected despite facing the highest risk of death; 8 in 10 deaths from COVID-19 reported in the U.S. have been among adults 65 and older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is crucial, Osterholm said, that states continue to direct efforts toward reaching and vaccinating vulnerable seniors who are homebound or hesitant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we say we’re going to open up eligibility to everybody 16 or 18 years and older, that seems like a victory,” he said. “In many states, that is an admission of defeat.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KHN senior correspondent Anna Maria Barry-Jester contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
