Cases rise in the United States. Stocks plunging americans sick main street hurting. Has the economic pain finally caught up with wall street who here is voting for trump . This is not political its patriotic the message and the money whats the president ial ad war telling us in this final week of the race live from cnbc Global Headquarters the facts. The truth. The news with Shepard Smith. Hurricane zeta roaring inland it crashed ashore in Southeast Louisiana less than two hours ago as a powerful cat 2 storm, the nbc climate team expecting extensive damage zetas hammering a region still recovering from two major hurricanes this year Nbc Universal coverage coming up first tonight, from our new studios at cnbc Global Headquarters, a dire warning from the former head of thefda the pandemic is about to get much worse and were at only the beginning of a steep curve were about, you know, maybe three weeks behind europe, maybe a month at the most. See were on a trajectory to look a lot like europe as we enter the month of november. So i think things are going to get worse. Some facts now, covid cases rising in 47states over the past week, almost the entire nation infected patients are overwhelming some hospitals in americas heartland and in the american west. The writing has been on the wall for weeks. The doubt on wall street, theyre finally taking notice. The dow having its worst week since march when the pandemic first began to rage plunging more than 900 points today alone. In el paso hospitalizations have tripled in less than three weeks, emergency tents set up in parking lots for extra space the Convention Center turning into a makeshift field hospital. A leading doctor in that city says theyre talking about the possibility of rationing hospital care. Nationwide, covid has never been this bad we talked to Doctors Today across the country to find out what theyre seeing right now and where they think were headed i think we learned our lesson in march and april really having to deal with such a dramatic increase in cases and seeing our hospitals be overwhelmed where most people knew somebody that had been infected, but it is always possible like were seeing in europe that new york does have another wave, another surge. Europe its continued to spread throughout the city. If we continue to have exponential spread a week from now well be above 1,000 and two weeks from now, 2,000 people in the hospital and thats not tenable. It doesnt matter how many resources. This is a Major Public Health emergency. We may well tap at 100,000 cases a week, 100,000 cases a week there are a thousand people dieing from this pandemic. This is a National Tragedy we have a national emergency. America on alert. Europe has been a predictor of whats coming here there, it just has become so bad that new lockdown orders were issued today in france in germany. Dr. Anthony fauci now, the nations leading expert on Infectious Diseases joins us dr. Fauci, thank you good to be with you youve said a National Mask mandate is maybe a good idea, why maybe . Well, the reason is i would hope that we could pull together as a country. We havent yeah. We have not and thats the reason why i said very clearly is it time for the mandate, dr. Fauci . We lean on you for advice do we need a National Mandate or not . Yes well, we do if we dont get one then i would hope that the governors and the mayors do it locally if its not done nationally but dr. Fauci. Yes are you still does the are you still in the president s ear or no and if not, who is well, i havent spoken to the president in quite a while about the situation with regard to the outbreak, but i can tell you right now why i can tell you right now regardless of that what we do need is adherence to mandate or not, if mandate is needed, lets do a mandate youre the one who decides, dr. Fauci. Is it needed . Are you going to let me finish hey, shep, are you going to let me finish . Its pretty urgent, doc no, it is very urgent and thats the reason why i have been urgently saying every single day that we have got to do things that have not been done uniformly and consistently throughout the country the numbers that you put up are stunning this is going to get worse because were going more into a cold season as we get through the fall and into the winter with the Holiday Season going, wooe got to do something different. We cant just let this happen. Were going have many more hospitalizations and that will inevitably lead to more deaths and this is an untenable situation and thats the reason why i say we have got to do these things youre using the word mandating masks, yes, if that works lets do it. I dont think its going to happen nationally. Why if it doesnt happen nationally the reason is because it may not come from the white house to do it, and if it doesnt then i think that the mayors and the governors should do it. There are mandates in more than a hundred countries and even russia is onboard as of yesterday, but not here. Right is there any who does who does the white house listen to on this you know, i dont know. A lot of theres a lot of input from a number of different sources into the white house it isnt only one person i mean, obviously, right now youre aware that dr. Scott atlas has much more of an access to the president regarding Health Issues than i do. How do you feel about that . You know, it doesnt matter how i feel about it, shep. Im just going to be doing my job trying to get the message out as im doing here with you the National Disaster Preparedness Center just issued a report on the Novel Coronavirus and concluded that at very minimum, 130,000 american lives could have been saved. As many as 210,000 lives had we had what that center calls more robust federal coordination and leadership are they wrong no. I think we should have had more. I mean, obviously, weve had a disparate response i have been saying that, shep, for months now that when we have a uniformed response where all of the states do things in a uniformed manner with regards to mask, distancing and avoiding congregant settings, it may be different than if we did it the way we did it than if we did it in a disparate way sciencebased policies will prevail Going Forward with donald trump as president giving his attacks on science and gove government scientists. Do you agree with that im not going to get into that, shep im not going to get into political statements and ill stick with Public Health statements i appreciate that and i thank you. Theres new audio, dr. Fauch they came out today on cnn during which Jared Kushner said on april 7th, midapril, seven months ago that the president is taking back the country from the doctors. Is that when the president stopped listening because many of us out here would like to know how this happened i dont know exactly the timing, but it was clear that some months ago there was a pivot away from complete focusing on Public Health issues to looking at opening up the country with regard to the economy. That was very clear, and it was stated that way, and that may be what youre referring to, but im not sure of the timing of that 500,000 new cases in the last week the president s testing czar says that thats a sign that were surging. The president says its because were testing more theres clearly confusion among the population about whats really happening could you help us understand it . Yes unequivocally, there are more cases that are real cases. Thats manifested by the numbers, the data are strong its also manifested by the fact that if you look at the map of the country where youre having an uptick in cases we are also having upticks in hospitalizations, so the cases are real theyre not just as a result of testing. Earlier today you talked to the journal of the American Medical Association or jamaa and you talked about what an extraordinary thing has happened in melbourne they had an 111day lockdown starting with 20,000 cases a day and two days ago they had zero cases. Why cant we do that yeah. I, you know, when you talk about lockdowns that certainly they were extremely successful. There is very little appetite for a lockdown in this country there is going to be a major pushback both from above and at the local level. However, what melbourne did, what australia did as a country was very successful. I was on the phone with my australian colleagues two nights ago, and they were describing exactly what you said. Whether or not that would be acceptable, i do not think so, shep i do not think it would be acceptable theres covid fatigue in this country and people would be pushing back strongly. If thats the case, which i think it is, then weve got to do the next best thing weve got to double down very, very strongly on the things that ive been talking about with regard to the universal acceptance of masks, distancing and avoiding crowds and congregant settings. If we did just that, we would be doing much better than we are doing right now. We spent much of the day, dr. Fauci trying to figure out where we are in a month. We talked to doctors all over the country and a month from tomorrow, four weeks from tomorrow is thanksgiving people are making plans. Could you help give us a visualization based on the science, what a month from now looks like in america . If things do not change, shep if they continue on the course were on, theres going to be a whole lot of pain in this country with regard to additional cases and hospitalizations and deaths. We are on a very difficult trajectory we are going in the wrong direction. We are averaging 70,000 cases per week weve gone up as high as 83,000 last friday, and if you look at the map that you just showed on the screen, there are a large number of states that are going in the wrong direction if that continues were going to be in much worse shape a month from now than we are today. Well, i remember much worse shape for our small group in new york i remember locked down for months on end, and seeing no one and doing nothing. Thats not coming to the rest of the country. What does that mean to those surges around thanksgiving you look at el paso and you just wonder how are they going come out of this . Yeah. There are certain regions of the country, shep, that are going to even have more of a problem because there are some places in the heartland and in the northwest that never had the kind of hospital and intensity care facility and flexibility that some of the larger hospitals in larger cities like new york, chicago, new orleans, philadelphia and others. So the concern is that if you talk to the people who have done that who are in those regions of the country, theyre concerned that if the trajectory continues they will be in a position where they will be strapped for things like intensive care beds. Dr. Fauci, i cant thank you enough for taking the time heady days ahead, well lean on you or as we say, follow the fauci. Its always good to be with you. Thanks a lot, shep. Good to be with you. More on covid coming first the hurricane. Zeta surprised the forecasters and got lots stronger before it slammed the gulf coast about i dont know, less than two hours ago as a very powerful category 2, borderline category 3. It made landfall in Southeast Louisiana and at this moment according to the Hurricane Center it is hitting new orleans. Zeta came on with 110 mileanhour winds remember category 3 is 111 and its right there forecasters say it could bring lifethreatening storm surge into louisiana, south mississippi and alabama and beyond the main concern is the heavy rain and damaging winds. Zeta is moving lightning fast for a hurricane. Last report 24 miles an hour forward progress, expected to rip through the region quickly before moving across the southeast. The nbc climate team says we should anticipate severe structural damage in some areas. Zeta and this is unbelievable. Zeta is now the 11th named storm to hit america this season, the most in any season ever on record nbcs Morgan Chesky was right in new orleans in the eye of the storm until 45 minutes ago until it got so bad he had to bug out. Youve been there storm after storm. Describe today shep, good evening. We were on the banks of lake pontchartrain for the better part of today gathering information about this upcoming hurricane here and you mentioned how fast it was moving that 24 mileanhour speed as it moved into the gulf and the lowlying areas of louisiana we experienced that first hand, we were getting ready to do a series of reports from right there in the water that wind picked up and the waves started washing inland and we were outside that area where the floodgates are controlling some of that surge we shot a clip or two and then decided it was just too dangerous and we moved inland to the French Quarter where the kru is staying, but dry rid now. As we were driving into the interior part of new orleans, the wind picked up and so did the rain and we started to witness power flash after power flash from the Vantage Point on the highway and this was a border line category 2, border line category 3 and the mayor was encouraging everyone to not get out in this. Fortunately, we made it to safety and its a testament to the pow every these storms right now the skies temporarily cleared up in new orleans as i looked up right now. We do know there is a significant danger in mississippi and that would be on theother side of this hurrican and thats where we could be seeing 11 feet of storm surge. The main threat is in the area is the powerful wind gusts, the potential for tornadoes tonight and we are hearing report of outline parishes as a result if there was a Silver Lining hopefully it will clear out soon. Bill cairns is in the Weather Center and it came up so fast and intensified so quickly it gave us all whiplash. It was almost a category 3 major hurricane right over the top of new orleans normally in a year would be this huge story and if morgan is still listening, morgan, youre in the eye of the hurricane right now. It is centered right over the top of downtown, new orleans the winds have gone calm after gusting nearly 100 miles an hour let me take you through some of the latest here we have the wind gusts and some of the games stopped working when the storm went through. Once he goes through the eye thats about it. New orleans will be just fine in an hour or two right now the worst of it is over with is now with the troublesome weather or areas of mississippi and coastal porls in alabama. In a lot of the parishes, numerous for people has trees and it still has 115mile per hour winds its so shep, well have widespread Power Outages to atlanta tomorrow morning and the wind gusts will continue to be the biggest problem with the storm. Shep, you mentioned 11 storms this season and the named storm hitting the u. S. Five of them hit louisiana and that has never happened before. With all of that water in south mississippi, im worried about hancock, and pass christiane, some of the ones that got hit by katrina. Bay st. Louis yeah. Some of the latest number, the storm surge is up four to five feet and we expect a max of up to len feet so thats happening now for the small communities from pascagoula and bay st. Louis and wave length, and the next two hours is the critical time for those looks. We hope that after katrina are katrina efrgs everything was built safer to survive things like this. Waveland 31 feet from katrina. The vote now and the ads for president on tv. The campaigns are spending record money to get people in swing states to see them the strategy behind their messages in this sprint to the finish we just voted. I dont think anybodys ever seen anything like this. Six days to go, the candidates, the vote and breaking down the numbers of one key battleground state from bombs to viruses. Meet the dogs being trained to sniff out covid19. Plus, overruled. Inside the legal battle to keep guns away from the polls the facts help the truth. The news with Shepard Smith back in 60 second alright, i brought in ensure max protein to give you the protein you need with less of the sugar you dont. [grunting noise] ill take that. Woohoo 30 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar. Ensure max protein. With nutrients to support immune health. Ensure max protein. brad apartmentsdotcom makes easier than ever. W home brad apartmentsdotcom. The most popular place to find a place. The vote and six days until the election now President Trump campaigning out west rallying in arizona near the nevada state line. Polls show him trailing in both of those states. Joe biden voting early in delaware, keeping the spotlight on the president s handling of the pandemic bidens runningmate senator Kamala Harris also campaigning across arizona shes heading to texas on friday, texas as the Biden Campaign sets his eyes on flipping traditionally deep red states with texas officially a tossup from the nbc decision desk when analysts are predicting election spending for the president ial races combine would be 14 billion total more than double what it was just four years ago. Cnbcs eamon javers reports on where the candidates are spending their money and their messaging strategy in the final stretch. If i have the honor of being president that man has done everything that he has set out to do. When joe talks to gold star families. Hospitals being closed. Futures we can shape. An economy in ruins were nearing the end of a massive and unprecedented political advertising spending blitz and its joe biden who has spent the most, but its not over yet in the coming days both campaigns will saturate the airwaves ed bient and Democratic National committee have more than doubled the dollar value in tv and radio ads than trump and the republican National Committee and if you live in a battleground state you will see more ads than everyone else. For example, in florida, bidens camp planning to spend more than 1 million a day and President Trumps camp spending 2 million in total by election day for biden, all of that money has hammered home his themes of health care and national unity. Joe biden doesnt need everyone in this country to always agree just to agree we all love this country. For the president it means an ad campaign criticizing biden on taxes and the economy. Heres how it works im going to raise taxes. Small businesses pay more and all of that spending doesnt even include the massive amount of spending thats taken place outside the super pacs and other big money groups according to the center for responsive politics those groups spent nearly 1. 2 billion just in the month of october alone. Its a ton of money. Shep, when you look at these ads being run by the campaigns, you get a sense that theyre both running ads about joe biden, positive and negative and part of the reason seems to be they both concluded the public does understand who donald trump is, but they think theres room on both sides to persuade the public about who joe biden is. Shep eamon, thanks the eye of the storm just passing over the French Quarter and into south mississippi with all of those bands thousands already without power, high winds, heavy rain were on the ground and new reports from new orleans and south mississippi and covids grip is tightening investors rattled, the selloff steep, how, why and what this plunge means for all of us concrete is fundamental to every structure.

Boeing in on the decline as losses mount at the company. Revenue down nearly 30 .

Republicans accusing of selective censorship on wall street, the dow is off more than 900 points the biggest drop since june. All of the indices down more than 3 . S p off 119. The nasdaq down 426. Oil prices cratered down more than 5 on the day on the new suddenly realization that the hoped for, remergizenergized e is not happening stocks down 6 in the last three days Cnbcs Bob Pisani is here. The market had priced in a stimulus or Disaster Relief that never came is that the long and short of it or is there more theres more, shep. Wall street is freaking out because its hearing a word it doesnt want to hear anymore, lockdown we all tell stories to each other to make sense of the world and wall street does that, too, and the story wall street has been believing is this, first, were going to get more stimulus and that will be the bridge to the vaccine. Second, we will continue to have a reopening, but without a lockdown and then some time in the Second Quarter next year, when we get a widely distributed vaccine and we will have a big party and go on with our lives, stocks have run up on the rosy story and its a good story, but its not happening that way. We dont have stimulus right now, the second stimulus and now we have these stories about limited lockdowns in europe, call it lockdown light, whatever you want to call it and even some in the United States, wall street makes its money trying to figure out the future and the future it is seeing now is not the future it had been anticipating, shep bob pisani with some reality.

The most since the pandemic hit. Nbcs Megan Fitzgerald live in a hospital just outside albuquerque. Megan, what are doctors most concerned about there . Well, shep, at this point theyre calling the situation here in new mexico alarming and theyve been tracking this virus very closely so they are able to project that in two weeks from now, by november 15th they believe that this virus is going to inundate the icus, double the numbers that they see there if not triple right now theyre seeing the virus is gripping the state here which is different what we saw in the beginning of the pandemic when it hit hard the native american community, just running rampant through reservations and pueblos, killing hundreds. It was literally from, you know, just a straight up there was no curve it just went straight up and thats just largely because of how quick it spread, but also how it spend among multigenerations very fast leaders in the nativeamerican Community Back in april sounding the alarm and reaching out to officials here in new mexico asking them for help so mobile units from Presbyterian Medical Center behind me here activated going to these reservations and these pueblos, educating and testing the native American People and right now, as a matter of fact, they are actually controlling this virus better than much of the state of new mexico.

Traveling nurses, hundreds of them are coming into el paso from across the state. The most critical patients are being airlifted to some other cities today we spoke with a woman who recovered from covid19 last month, but 15 members of her extended family got sick including her grandfather who passed away. Once it finally came to be his time i guess we found some sort of relief knowing that he didnt have to go through it anymore. Shep, the u. S. Is afsveraging more than 72,000 new covid casis a day and at least 36 states have seen a rise in hospitalizations over the last several days here in el paso there was a lot of concern heading into the winter where more people will congregate, as well as flu season, but i spoke with the chief medical officer here who says hes not so much concerned about the next few months. Hes more concerned about the upcomingweek shep gabe, thanks. Brand new update on the hurricane. 300,000 people are now without power and weve just gotten a clear signal out to Nbcs Jay Gray who is in new orleans this thing moving so fast and honestly, it looks like its already passed you shep, its the most bizarre thing ive seen. I grew up in louisiana ive covered dozens of hurricanes, 15 minutes ago i would have had trouble standing where i am right now driving range, just a pushing wind here. Hurricane speed for sure and now ive seen a patch of sun sunshine, its hard for me to say. You cant see it from the camera, but the clouds actually broke enough to see a bit of the setting sun here ive never been in a storm like this one again, earlier things were really cooking here. We saw unings pulled away from buildings and those huge metal trash cans that lined canal street picked up and rolled down the street obviously, theres structural damage in and around this city weve seen a lot of Police Officers now that things have calmed down and you just heard the fire truck coming by as you were throwing it out here to me. So theyre obviously dealing with situations on the ground here, but it was such a fastmoving storm, shep that it came through in a snap, and really faster, i think, than forecasters thought it would, much faster than anything ive seen and the back end of this storm really torn away and sheared off. So i dont think were going to see excuse me, that much of the storm as it makes its way through. Its continuing to push inland i do think well continue to see as it moves inland more of those power lines down and a lot more outages. I think youre right. Jay gray, thanks look at the radar loop. This is live radar right now see that look at the south and west of that storm thats what jay is talking about. Its mostly clear on the bottom left side of the storm, but up into the right as you go toward gulfport, mississippi in louisiana on over toward mobile and up to hattisburg, mississippi, its on the way this storm is flying, 25 miles an hour so that whole area you see is getting pounded updates on cnbc.

An update now on last nights Deadly School bus crash in middle, tennessee. Bless say the crash killed a bus driver and a 7yearold girl seven other students injured taken to Childrens Hospital in chattanooga. Four of them are still in the hospital Officials Say 33 people were on that school bus. It was drive in its lane when a utility truck lost control this from police, went into a side skid and hit the bus headon. It happened on highway 58 between chattanooga and knoxville near decatur we hear from a lot of voices this time of year. Candidate, surrogate, democratic voters and the list goes on and on, but millions more have never had their voices heard at all. About 100 million americans did not vote in 2016 and you might ask why . Well, we asked, too. In mcdowell county, West Virginia heres the thing its poor. Its the lowest turnout county in the Second Lowest turnout state in all the nation. In 2016, about 4600 people went for donald trump there 1400 for hillary clinton, but more than 11,000 didnt bother here now from some of them i go to work, and go home i dont have a tv. I dont have internet. I have internet, but i have nothing to get on the internet with, you know what i mean im pretty far behind, and ill bet you a lot of us around here are because were poor i dont know nothing about joe i aint heard nothing about him at all since ive been here. Donald trump, i know a little bit about him. The past two years aint nothing changed. Its all the same. As far as im concerned that ive seen. One, trump is good. Two, biden, however you pronounce his name, hes good, too, but like i say, i cant judge either one of them its the same community, it aint ever going to change because it was going to change none of this would look like this right here. People dont think who, like, iffed by knows president or trumps president that theyre going to change here like, here in welch. Welch aint changed in last three or four president s only that last guy there said he plans to vote this year only he. He says hell support President Trump and the other two told us maybe theyll vote maybe they wont leaklikely voters, a differ story. Two very different polls out of wisconsin, one has former Vice President joe biden up by 17 points and theres another one that has the president trailing by only five our brian sullivans in wisconsin, and he sent us this photo. Kind of a slice of life look here in the battleground state the polls may be moving, but the neighbors are very close steve cornaki has the data whats happening in wisconsin now, steve very confusing it really is, shep. You can see this side by side. Biden by 17 in wisconsin another one, biden by five in wisconsin and one thing we know is if you average together all of the different polls that are out there in wisconsin and there have been others taken, several others in the last week, what it generally comes back to is the biden lead of about six points in wisconsin we havent seen any others that are in this neighborhood, but weve seen a lot there in this neighborhood so it points to a biden lead and not as dramatic as youre seeing in the big one and by the way, next door in michigan, another poll coming out today putting biden ahead by eight there in michigan and just very quickly, the Electoral College implications and heres your battleground if biden were to get michigan and if he were to get wisconsin, hed be getting awfully close to 270 with a lot of other possible pathways right there live for him on the map those two states could get him a lot of the way there steve, what about this new nbc news wall street journal polling and we got in touch with the persuadable, and disconnected voters as the pollsters called them. Any signs that were seeing a late break its interesting. There are some persuadable voters out there right now it doesnt look like theyre making a big, dramatic move and they have two conflicting views of this. They tend to be more favorable towards President Trumps job the job hes done as president , but also their favorable view of joe biden has gone up as this campaign has gone along.

So some dogs in finland now. These ones might just save us from those covid tests that basically scratch your brain youve done that at least thats whats being studied in helsinkis airport. Researchers are now saying that sniffer dogs can detect the coronavirus in all of us sometimes even five days before the symptoms even get started and they look good doing it. Theyre getting it right almost every time heres nbcs kelly cobiella. They say a dogs nose knows and in a makeshift lab in finlands helsinki airport, researchers from the university of hell singsinki are collecting passengers to show it can detect covid19 than mans test theyre quicker, cheaper, possibly as accurate possibly even more accurate.
