SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- Dr. Scott Overcash and the staff at La Mesa-based laboratory eStudySite are preparing for what could be a history-making clinical study."I'm personally really excited about being in the effort to try to prevent people from getting the disease," said Overcash.In just days, Overcash will soon be overseeing a first-of-its-kind trial of a coronavirus vaccine created by the American biotech company Moderna.Starting as early as next week, the first of 350-500 local patients will begin receiving the vaccine.The same one has already been given to patients in phases one and two of the trial. This is the next and possibly final step before FDA approval."What's a little bit different about this particular situation is that the different phases have all been sort of compressed and are all ongoing at the same time," Overcash explained.Overall, 30,000 people around the country are expected to take part in this larger study.Unlike earlier phases, this round is targeting a more vulnerable part of the population.The patients taking part will belong to one of three groups: older than 65, younger but with underlying conditions or those at high risk of catching the virus because of their job.Moderna's vaccine uses what's called messenger RNA to trick the body's cells into producing the antibodies necessary to fight the virus.So far, this particular vaccine has shown promise, but only time will tell"There are multiple candidate vaccines that are going to be rolling out and we're just so hopeful that at least one will be effective enough to be rolled out for use," said Overcash.To learn how to participate in a clinical trial, visit https://coronaviruspreventionnetwork.org/. 1708

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - High school students are managing a new normal as they apply for colleges."This is a hot topic," says Matt Hunt, a guidance counselor at Rancho Bernardo High School. "This is something that kids are concerned about, parents are concerned about, people are curious about."The biggest adjustment for the 2021 fall application period is the use of standardized tests, like the SAT or ACT.Because of coronavirus concerns, many testing centers have been unavailable, making it difficult for students to take a test. To level the playing field across county and state lines, schools are either eliminating a test requirement or making it optional.According to FairTest, the National Center for Fair and Open Testing, more than 1,600 colleges and universities have made those tests "optional" for admission in the upcoming school year. That means students are not required to submit a test score, but can if they choose. FairTest also says more than 60 schools have gone "test-blind." That means they will not use a test score to determine admission, even if a student puts it in the application.In California, the Cal State system says they will be test-blind in 2021. The UC Schools initially said they would be test-optional, but a court decision over the summer forced them to be test-blind. The UC schools also say they plan to eliminate traditional standardized tests by 2025, and will write their own admissions test.RELATED: University of Californai to Stop Using ACT, SAT through 2024Without tests, counselors say students need to focus on their grades and personal statements and essays to stand out."I would tell students to focus on answering those questions candidly," says Tracy Wilson, the Director of College and Career Readiness for Grossmont Union High School District. "They need to answer them with their own student voice, because if they are a student who has struggled with those opportunities, that's the place to share the 'why.'"Wilson also says to focus your search and only worry about the application standards for the schools you plan to apply. "Colleges want a variety of students," she says. "The academics are important, but it's not the only thing... Put yourself out there try do your best. I really feel like colleges are going to be very welcoming on their campuses next fall."Hunt agrees, saying it's important to stay on top of any changes that occur in the next few months. He tells students to stay in communication with your school counselor and the admissions offices where you plan to apply. "You're going to apply to a handful of schools, you'll see what happens," says Hunt. "But there's a school out there, and an opportunity out there for everyone. So remember that." 2735

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — High school athletes across San Diego County are waiting to find out if they’ll have a season this fall.The decision from California Interscholastic Federation is expected to come by July 20.In the meantime, some school districts, like Sweetwater Union High School District, have canceled summer workouts out of concern about the pandemic. Others, like Poway Unified and Grossmont Union, are allowing them with social distancing measures and new liability waivers specific to COVID-19.The CIF does not oversee summer practices, said San Diego Section President Joe Heinz, meaning it’s up to districts to decide whether to allow activities on their athletics fields and how to safely manage them.RELATED: CIAA, SIAC suspend fall sports, championship events due to COVID-19PUSD began allowing summer workouts for football, soccer, field hockey, and other sports in mid-June, after the district created its own set of safety measures from county, state, and other guidelines."We feel pretty comfortable about what it is that we’re doing," said Rancho Bernardo Athletic Director Peggy Brose. "So far so good."Teams have staggered practice times and specific entry points to avoid crossover, she said.Upon arrival to campus, staff check each athlete’s temperature and screen them for symptoms. Each athlete must bring hand sanitizer and their own water bottle. Players are required to wear masks until they reach designated areas.RELATED: California CCAA moving all sports to the springOn the field, students are kept in the same groups of 12 or less each day. For football, players are grouped by position. Summer football workouts are focused on strength and conditioning; contact and pads are already not allowed.Other safety measures vary by sport. In basketball and field hockey, for example, athletes have their own ball assigned to them to avoid sharing, Brose said.Although she acknowledged the school cannot entirely eliminate the risk of transmission, she said supervised activities at school may be inherently safer than unsupervised ones.“We can control them when we have them,” said Brose. “What we can’t control is what they do on their own.”Mt. Carmel High School Football Coach John Anderson said the response from parents in his program has been clear.RELATED: Big Ten Conference limits fall sports to conference-only matches, athletic scholarships still honored“We have 20 more kids this summer than last summer,” he said. “So parents are really encouraging their kids to come out and play.”But not all. 10News spoke with a Poway Unified parent who kept his son out of summer athletics out of concern about the virus.“How can they not be infecting one another?” he said.The parent, who asked to have his name withheld from the story, provided photos of a workout on a football field with what he considered poor social distancing.“While they’re doing the calisthenics in warmups they are trying to keep six feet apart, they observe the distancing,” he said. “But when they’re running, they start bunching up.”The parent said he is a strong supporter of high school sports, but said the risk of transmission, particularly when athletes are breathing heavily, is too great.“COVID has been hard on everyone, particularly young people, but the good of the community should come first,” he added.He was concerned after Poway Unified required parents to sign a new waiver, releasing the school from all claims related to COVID-19 and acknowledging that participation in summer workouts could lead to transmission of the virus that could spread to an athlete’s parents or family members, potentially causing death.Grossmont Union High School District also added a mention of COVID-19 in its liability waiver.“Will the younger people die? Probably not,” said the parent. “But they’re going to go back and continue to spread it to their parents and grandparents who are at greater risk.”That risk has prompted other districts, like the Sweetwater Union High School District, to ban summer practices entirely.“We continue to be very concerned about the increases of cases in our communities, at a rate significantly higher than in other communities within the county,” Chief Compliance Officer Vernon Moore wrote in a letter to parents.Citing updated guidance from the state, Orange County banned all youth sports practices as of this week, but for now, San Diego County says it will allow them.“I think it can’t do enough for their mental health, their self-esteem,” said Coach Anderson. “Being cooped up in their houses for the last few months, to get out, run around and be active is really beneficial to their mind and body.” 4659

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - Family and friends of a disabled Clairemont woman are making a plea for the arrest of a hit-and-run driver who left her with serious injuries.Last week, a beaming Delores Odom appeared at a surprise party for her 59th birthday. One of the attendees was her friend and neighbor Maritza Gates. "She was so happy that day. It breaks my heart to see her in the hospital now in so much pain," said Gates. On Saturday just before 6:30 p.m., Odom decided to take a walk to grab dinner. She was crossing westbound on Genesee Avenue in the south crosswalk when she was hit by a vehicle that had been going westbound on Derrick Drive and made a left turn to southbound Genesee Avenue, according to police.Odom's daughter Brianna says her mother broke her back in two places. Odom has feeling in her toes, but still faces possible paralysis and requires complicated back surgery. Her recovery and rehabilitation is made more challenging because of a decades-old diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. "There's a special place for people like that. I don't understand how you could hurt someone and then leave them. My mom is one of the nicest people ever. You don't know someone's story when you leave them to die on the street," she said.Police say there is no description of the vehicle and are looking for witnesses. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-580-8477.A Gofundme campaign has been set up to help with expenses. 1462

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - For one local woman, President Trump's proposal for the death penalty for some drug dealers is sparking an emotional, internal debate."My daughter's character was so gracious.  She was beautiful inside and out," said Eva Faure.Her daughter, Eva Anderson was a trainer and aspiring journalist.  Six years ago, Anderson's life was cut short at the age of 23.  She was Faure's only child."The pain ... is an indescribable," said Faure.Faure says her daughter's opiate habit started when she tried her boyfriend's Oxycontin pills.  She says within 3 months, Eva was an addict. Around that time, Faure confronted Eva after she got sick, lost weight and her personality changed.  Eva revealed her addiction and agreed to enter rehab.  Faure says after nearly 2 years of being sober -- Eva's landlord found her dead from a methadone overdose in her La Jolla apartment.  While Faure still has questions about how the methadone got into her daughter, there's no questioning how she feels about those who traffic large amounts of opioids.     1114
