The OP just got hit with an unfortunate but ultimately unrelated series of events, but luckily it sounded like they were able to roll with it.
Substituting to a start from SFO amd taking the non stop flight on VN would remove risk of any misconnect - any delay to departure would just delay arrival
any issue with getting to the airport applied regardless
