Former cdc director dr. Tom frieden joins us now from new york. And the cdc has issued its new what are your thoughts on its recommendations and what are really the keys to reopening safely . Eva, the challenge here isnt to open schools. Any community can open schools. The challenge is to keep them open and thats only going to happen if the rate of covid comes down substantially in communities throughout particularly the south and now west of the u. S. You cant keep a school open if cases are exploding in the community. Its just not going to be possible. In addition, there are a lot of things you need to do within the school to adapt. You need to keep Vulnerable People out. You need to increase distance, reduce the number of spaces that get closed, cancel choir. So there are a lot of changes and adjustments that are needed toscols open a first thing of making sure that cases are coming down means we need much better eyes on the virus. We need to track a different set of numbers from what were tracking now. Do you think these recommendations are enough . Well, i think the recommendations have important components in them. Id like tsemo b there huge benefits to opening schools but there are risks and we need to be honest about those risks. We need to move forward closely we need to move forward carefully. And three things i would love to see every community monitor, not the number of cases, but the number of cases that were isolated within two days of getting sick. Not the number of tests, the number of tests that come back within 24 hours. And not the number of contacts but the number of contacts who when they get sick are already quarantined. If we measured meaningful numbers like that and held ourselves accountable for improving them, we could get our cases down so our kids would be more likely to be able to go to School Safely and stay in school so it doesnt have to close back up just as weve seen in the south. Open too soon, closed. We dont want it to happen that to happen in the schools. A new study from the cdc and Vanderbilt University Medical Center find that many who get infected with covid19 may have sympto tt stor. What d lg they could actually last . The range of illness that this virus causes is astonishing from absolutely no symptoms in maybe 30, 35, 40 of people to death in some and everything in between and one thing we dont know is whether some people will develop some longterm complications. If youve lost your sense of smell or taste, is that going to result in some longterm impact . We dont know yet. We have to be humble about what we know and what we dont know about this virus and for that reason we have to share all information openly, move forward can fight the virus better. Dr. Frieden, thank you so much for your time this morning. Dan, over to you. Eva, thank you.

And on the agenda for the president today a meeting and roundtable with some supporters. Tomorrow he heads to morristown before going back to d. C. Whit . All right, andrew, thank you so much. President trump has said hes also sending federal agents to albuquerque, new mexico, to help that city combat Violent Crime there. Joining us now is albuquerque mayor tim keller. Mayor keller, thanks for joining us. We appreciate it. Albuquerque, as you know has struggled with Violent Crime and youve had persistent protests in your city in recent days. Your sheriff, manny gonzalez, actually went to the white house asking for help. Do you need the federal government to now step in . You know, for us we always welcome partners when it comes to crime fighting, but were very concerned about this idea that we should just sell out our town for a potential bait and switch to efforts to go after protesters or immigrants. And its because its happening in other cities, especially al polinthat actua these political maneuvers to incite violence. You described it as a bait and switch. Are you suggesting this is more about politics than policing . You know, i am and its just because of the president s own words. So the day before he announced this, he explicitly said he waso t to challenges with Law Enforcement. And so given what weve seen in portland, were very, very concerned. I dont think any mayor wants whats happening in portland to happen in their town. Attorney general barr said this would be different than the federal response we saw in portland and described the operation in your city and others as classic crime fighting. Do you trust the Justice Department to keep its word on this . You know, i think, unfortunately, were always very skeptical because weve seen in the past, especially as a border state, we saw what happened with the separation of kids in the Detention Centers and the Attorney Generals Office at the time said that wasnt happening. Then it turns out it was. Then we see corona doesnt exist and it turns out it does. Wear a mask, dont wear a mask. Theres all the reason in the world to be skeptical and even in our own town were still waiting on help they offered and we agreed to from like six months ago. And so for us theres just been way too Many Political angles to policing when it comes to the federal government. We just want to get back to basics and well always take help if folks are in step with our values. I mentioned the sheriff. The head of the Police Union Says they also welcome the support of federal Law Enforcement agencies. What do you say to people in albuquerque who are genuinely and truly worried about the crime there and dont believe local leaders are doing enough . You know, for us it is our top priority. We know we have a crime problem and we also know that we work with our federal folks all the time, literally on a daily basis. So i would reassure them were doing everything we can to keep us safe and actually these kinds of political stunts, they actually make us less safe. Weve seen all across the country they tend to incite more violence and create more division. So for us we do want the help and need the help when it comes to things also like addiction, crimes against children, gun crimes. These are things when its in writing like it usually is we will always take the help and well work hard. But when its just the words coming out of a politician running for office, i mean, we should all know to be skeptical about that. Mayor keller, thank you so much for your time. We appreciate it. Eva, over to you. Nearly weeklong celebration of congressman john lewis life with events across the country is beginning this morning. Abcs rachel scott is in troy, alabama, where the memorials for the civil rights icon are starting this morning. Good morning, rachel. Reporter eva, good morning.

Norman us with details as the wnba kicks off later today. Good morning, janai. Reporter hey, eva, good morning. As much as athletes are often told to shut up and play, we know many use their voices to call for change from muhammad ali speaking up to tommy smith and jean carlos with their fists up in the air to Colin Kaepernick taking a knee, its not new and athletes and activism often go hand in hand. In the wake of George Floyds death athletes are turning up the heat calling for social justice and racial equality. Wnba athletes looking to todays tipoff are also focusing on seeking justice for victims of Police Brutality and Racial Justice including Breonna Taylor, the louisville emt shot dead in her home by police executing a noknock warrant, and months later none of the officers involved have been arrested or charged. Ive asked women from around the league to join me to amplify this message and to make it clear where we stand. Reporter the wnba dedicating this season to social justice. All players on the Phoenix Mercury will wear jerseys with Breonna Taylors nar the lshtse be able to play with Everything Else thats going on with the murders that are happening and i think were given a prime opportunity to use our platforms and as a team, as a league to stand for what we believe in. Reporter at the nba bubble in orlando we need justice for Breonna Taylor. We need justice for b taylor. Thats everything. Reporter some nba players worried returning to basketball would be a distraction from calls for change. But many like lebron james are using their platform to amplify the message. Its fortunate we had the geor to e. I mean is that what we need, to see a video of breonna being killed for people to realize how bad the situation is . Reporter and its not just basketball. Four years after Colin Kaepernick drew massive criticism for kneeling during the national anthem, mlb players taking a knee during the anthem and pregame ceremonies. Our thanks to janai norman for that story. Joining us now is Breanna Stewart, 2018 mvp on the Seattle Storm. Breanna, good morning to you. We appreciate you taking the time. The wnba has dedicated this season to the fight for social justice as we just heard a moment ago. My teammates and really the lea. It affects all of us in one aspect or another and especially a league thats 80 black, its very important to create Racial Justice. When play starts today, some players will be wearing jerseys with Breonna Taylors name. She, of course, the louisville woman shot by police in her own apartment. And your warmup shirts will say black lives matter. As you know, there are critics that argue you should focus on the sport of basketball and stay out of politics and activism. What do you say to them and that criticism . To the people that criticize us, i think the fact is that, you know, were at a point in time in 2020 and we want to continue to use our platforms to amplify the message to take action and be the change. And like you said, we have say her name on the back of our shooting shirts. The Seattle Storm has Breonna Taylor, her name on the back of our jerseys. I think right now were continuing to put the pressure on the attorney general to arrest the officers involved in her murder. I do want to transition and talk about the coronavirus pandemic. Youll be playing all the games in what is being called the wubble. How do you feel about the precautions and Safety Measures and the fact that no fans will be in the stands . Its definitely interesting. Its weird, but its nice to be in an environment thats safe and i think the thing is, you know, the league is really taking precaution to take care of us and giving us this opportunity to be on the court and use our platform for people like Breonna Taylor and her family. All right, Breanna Stewart, thank you so much for your time. We do appreciate it.
