We dont have enough tests today to meet what we anticipate will be the demand going forward. Reporter the number of cases has spanned to every region of the country, including nevada, colorado, tennessee, and maryland.

Anthony fauci is the director of the National Institute of allergy and infectious diseases. Hes also leading the governments response to this outbreak doctor, good morning to you, sir. Good morning. We want to start with what we heard from the Vice President , acknowledging that the administration does not have the 1 million goal of tests, that youre not going to meet that benchmark. Is the administration prepared to deal with the scope of this, dr. Fauci . There was certainly some missteps in the beginning regarding getting testing out. Technical issues slowed down the process. Now, the fda and cdc are working together, both to get test kits out to the health department, as well as to embrace and collaborate with private Sector Companies to get it out. Although theres been a delay in the next couple weeks, we should be ratcheted up to get more out. The Vice President was absolutely correct there has been a delay we didnt have enough right now. Hopefully in the near future we will in the next few weeks, we will have the amount necessary to be prepared, dr. Fauci . Is that the benchmark youre now setting . I cant guarantee that. Thats an issue that would haves available. I cannot promise it. But thats what the goal is, within the next couple of weeks, to get the million plus that we have as our goal i want to ask you about the messaging. President trump said, quote, its all going to work out, as we just heard in tom costellos piece. Do you agree with that assessment and is the president , the administration, showing enough urgency, dr. Fauci certainly, the administration is showing urgency here. The task force meets every, single day we have conference calls, multiple ones, every, single day. This is 24 7 for us. It isnt as if this is taken lightly. This is a serious issue. Again, it sometimes gets confusing for the American Public because the overall risk in the country of getting infected is low. As weve seen in seattle, they now have Community Cases and thats something that is a bit concerning and thats the reason why they began the social distancing in seattle and the state of washington its something you take very seriously. Dr. Fauci, i mean, so far, it hasnt been overly disruptive to most peoples everyday life. At what point, do you think we need to shut down more schools, limiting more travel, restricting people from gathering in large spaces . At what point do you think we need to start considering those measures or are we at that point now . No. Over the entire country, were not. In seattle, i think that the governor and the Health Authorities made the right choice, in beginning a mitigation strategy, which is social distancing. If we get communitybased cases, throughout various parts of the country, you use that information to make the decision if theyre going to do what you said, which is to do the social distancing, that includes teleworking, closing schools, et cetera were not there yet as a nation. Dr. Fauci, i want to ask you about something i saw on twitter last night theres a producer that tweeted something i found disturbing she landed at jfk, after reporting on coronavirus in milan. She is in italy. She walked right through customs. They didnt ask me where in italy i went or if i came into contact with sick people they didnt ask me anything. Is that how it should work no. I dont know what happened there. But that does not sound the way it should have been. That does not sound correct. Im not aware of that case but the way you are describing it, that should not have happened what should happen . Well, obviously, first of all, the flights that come in from northern italy need to get screened i mean, american citizens can come in. But flights from northern italy are very tightly screened. Dr. Anthony fauci with the nih. Dr. Fauci will be staying close the next few days. Just to put a fine point on it here, our reaction so far as a country, are we overreacting are we reacting appropriately . You know, i mean, obviously, theres a lot of concern in the country. I think what were doing is appropriate. I am not happy with the lack of the appropriate number of test kits, for sure but other areas of the response, i think are going well dr. Anthony fauci thank you. Well have much more about the outbreak throughout the morning, including our inside look from those passengers at the situation on that california cruise ship. We want to turn to the president ial race. For democrats, its entering a vital new phase, after the departure of massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren who will her supporters turn to now . Senior washington correspondent Andrea Mitchell has more on that andrea, good morning to you. Reporter good morning, kristen. Elizabeth warrens departure means it is now a twoman race, officially ending the chances for a woman to top the ticket this year. But warren has leverage with joe biden and Bernie Sanders eagerly seeking her endorsement. Elizabeth warren, ending her president ial campaign afte falling short on super tuesday, even losing her home state of massachusetts. I will not be running for president in 2020. But i guarantee, i will still in stay in the fight. Reporter the progressive senator, who briefly led in the polls last fall, described how she felt when she saw her name on the president ial ballot that moment standing in the booth, i missed my mom and my daddy. Reporter in a field that began with six women candidates, warren had tried to be a role model for young girls. Telling them, shes running for president because thats what girls do one of the hardest parts of this is all those pinkie promises, and all those little girls who are going to have to wait four more years reporter talking about that Glass Ceiling to Rachel Maddow overnight. Its just going to be a little longer before were able to have a woman in the white house. But it doesnt mean its not going to happen. It doesnt mean its not going to happen soon reporter now, the last men standing, joe biden and Bernie Sanders, are vying for warrens endorsement and her voters i think they will find many of the issues that senator warren campaigned on are exactly the issues that we are fighting for. Reporter biden tweeting, we needed her voice in this race, and we need her continued work in the senate. Warren says she has to think before endorsing anyone. But pointedly criticizing some sanders supporters about online attacks against her Campaign Team did you talk to sanders about that i have. What was the conversation like it was short. Reporter warren confronted sanders after one of the debates in this viral moment accusing him of telling her privately a woman could not win the presidency i think you called me a liar on national tv reporter while acknowledging policy disagreements with biden, warren praised his character he is exactly who he says he is he is a decent guy, in the good of decency and it comes through in pretty much everything he does. Reporter biden and sanders are now locked in a heated battle for delegates, with another round of primaries next tuesday. Many in states favorable to biden. The biggest prize of all tuesday is michigan, where sanders scored an upset victory over hillar sanders cancelling a planned rally in mississippi to travel to michigan, as biden picked up a crucial endorsement from michigans governor. A lot of eyes on michigan andrea, thank you for that a day before the aforementioned primaries Pete Buttigieg will join us in studio 1a, his first live interview since ending his campaign and endorsing joe biden.

Now, we want to take a revealing new look at one of americas most infamous political scandals Stephanie Gosk is here with that story good morning to you. This is an interesting one a snapshot of the clintons weve not seen before. In 1998, bill clinton shocked the world, first denying and then admitting to an affair with then white house intern Monica Lewinsky the scandal launching a lengthy investigation that ended in impeachment. Since leaving office 20 years ago, the clintons have stayed relatively quiet about what went on behind the scenes now, a new documentary is pulling back the curtain we all bring our baggage to life and sometimes we do things we shouldnt do it was awful, what i did reporter this morning, former president bill clinton, now opening up about his affair with thenintern Monica Lewinsky, including when he told his wife about it. I told her exactly what happened, when it happened, and i said, i feel terrible about it i was so, you know, personally just hurt you know, i cant believe this i cant believe you lied she said, you have to go tell your daughter. She said, thats worse than me and so, i did that which was awful. Reporter the former president blaming anxiety in office for his transgressions. Youve been in a 15round prize fight thats been extended to 30 rounds heres someone who will take your mind off of it for a while. Reporter their revealing comments part of a new hulu documentary hillary, focused on her life and career in the spotlight. I defended and stood by him because i thought the impeachment process was wrong, but that wasnt the necessary answer to what i would do with my marriage. Reporter the clintons candid revelations following years of scrutiny after bills actions with Monica Lewinsky looking back on what happened then, through the lens of metoo now, do you think differently or feel more responsibility no. I felt terrible then and i came to grips with it. Reporter in 2018, clinton speaking to craig about lewinsky saying he wouldnt have done anything differently would you give her an apology . No. I never talked to her. But i did say publicly on more than one occasion that i was sorry. I came to this point that i had to realize, i couldnt run away from what happened to me. Reporter last october, lewinsky told savannah how shes transformed her own pain into an antibullying crusade. What did it feel like in that moment, to come out and reclaim your story well, it was terrifying i think that it it really could have gone differently, and im so incredibly grateful for how things have changed. Reporter clinton saying it was unfair lewinskys name became synonymous with scandal i feel terrible that Monica Lewinskys life was defined by it, unfairly, i think. Over the years, ive watched her try to get a normal life back again. But you have to decide how to define normal. Steph, we heard the former secretary of state there, defending her husband, in part, by saying, the impeachment process was wrong. But she was unsure about whether to stay in the marriage. What else did she say about that decision, to stay in the marriage its interesting. She draws this distinction between the two decisions. One decision, whether or not to defend him, which she did, during the impeachment process and the other, deciding whether or not they still had a marriage after all this they said they went through counseling, what they describe Hillary Clinton described as painful counseling. And bill clinton says it was one of the hardest things that he ever did in the end, they stayed together its remarkable to hear them speak so emotionally about this. They also open up about a moment with Chelsea Clinton after the revelations. Tell us about that this is an iconic piece of video from that time its the day after bill clinton comes out and admits to having this affair with Monica Lewinsky they were on their way to marthas vineyard. Chelsea clinton stands between them shes only 18 at the time. And grabs both of their hands. You see it in the video there. And Hillary Clinton says, at that moment, she was so struck by her daughter and how strong her daughter was and how she knew thats exactly what they needed in that moment. Pretty remarkable. That documentary, by the way, out on hulu today. Very quickly, what was the motivation do we know why they decided to do this now . One of the things that Hillary Clinton says is she is not running for anything it was an opportunity to be open i know theres a lot of people out there that sort of wished that openness happened a while ago. But its out there now really great point. A lot of people are going to want to see this, for sure steph, thank you so much great report just ahead, the beginning of the royal end.

Vice president mike pence, in hardhit washington, acknowledging that the u. S. Does not have enough kits. We asked the governments top expert earlier on today if the response has been sufficient. Theres a lot of concern in the country. I think what we are doing is appropriate. Im not happy about the lack of the appropriate number of test kits, thats for sure. But other areas of the response, i think, are going well. Dr. Anthony fauci said there is no need at this time to start closing schools or limiting Domestic Travel on a large scale. Erin mclaughlin joins us with a look inside a cruise ship that has been held offshore because of all of this. Good morning. Reporter good morning, kristen.

Californias National Guard delivering test kits to the grand princess cruise ship, by helicopter. Nearly 3,500 people remain at sea, just south of france, San Francisco, unsure of whats to come next. Its a little disturbing being out here in the open seas, barely moving along. Were just going in circles. And not knowing how long well be out here. Reporter four passengers on a previous voyage to mexico tested positive for coronavirus. One of those passengers died. 60 passengers from the trip to mexico stayed on the cruise to hawaii. Authorities think they may have been exposed on the ship. Including others who disembarked. Passengers were asked to return to their rooms thursday afternoon. Tests were administered to those deemed highrisk, including 35 passengers who have shown flulike symptoms. The anxiety is pretty high. Reporter for some passengers, the grand princess scare reminds them of the diamond princess, another cruise ship held off of the coast of japan, now linked to almost 700 infections and at least 6 deaths. We really feel that the ship should have been allowed to dock in San Francisco today, so that they could get the maximum testing done. Reporter the grand princess could arrive at this San Francisco port, but thats not certain. Authorities are waiting for the results before they make any decisions. Craig . Kristen . Erin mclaughlin, thank you for that report. Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren says she needs some time to think before endorsing anyone for the democratic president ial nomination.

Ten years ago, i was teaching a few blocks from here and talking about what was broken in america and ideas on how to fix it. And pretty much, nobody wanted to hear it. And ive had a chance to get out there and talk with millions of people. Both Bernie Sanders and joe biden would love warrens endorsement with another round of primaries set for tuesday thats the news for now. How about a boost. Lets do it an old family joke between a brother and sister from ohio, led to quite the unusual wedding crasher. So, during a road trip five years ago, she kept going on and on about the wedding she wanted to have one day. Her smart aleck brother told her, if you make me come to this wedding, im bringing a llama. What did that brother do he rented a llama from a local farm and he dressed the llama in a custommade tuxedo the sister was not totally amused but did pose for one picture with the special guest i dont imagine you have wedding pictures any better than that her brother sounds like my younger brother.

Dr. Oz, dr. John torres and vicky nguyen youve been talking about the virus and how to keep your family safe. Were going to answer some of those questions dr. Oz will get us started how to protect older family members. Thats the age group most at risk what age specifically . Do we know lets make 60 the cutoff. From the chinese cdc, it doubles in mortality every decade after age 60 4 chance of dying, 60 to 69 8 in the 70s. Over the age of 80, its 50 chance of dying. Folks shouldnt panic if youre young and healthy. Under the age of 10, no deaths in that age group. Over 670, you shown a litt 60a little concerned thats because of risk factors what are the risk factors, other than age cardiovascular disease. Chronic obstructive lung disease. High blood pressure, diabetes and cancer hypertension, diabetes, these are in a large part of the population these are prevalent in large percentages of the u. S. Population if you have the risk factors, especially if youre a smoker, its a good excuse to stop smoking and vaping what are the extra precautions that older people should be taking if i was younger, i would travel if i was older, i wouldnt i would avoid crowded places folkins 60 or older 60 or older a 1 mortality if youre 50 and older. Under 50, youre good to go. I like the arms length rule youre in rush hour traffic. Youre playing bingo at a sporting event and you cant be an arms length from the person next to you, if you dont know who was there, why take a chance lets talk about schools. Schools have made a decision to shut down. Some out of abundance of caution, others to clean if you are a parent and youve got a kid, and theyre healthy, from a closed school, whats the concern there . Whats the risk there . Im not worried about the kids the mortality rates is zero under age 10 i dont want them exposing themselves to grandma. These are the symptoms you want to look for. Number one symptom for almost everyone with the coronavirus is a fever. Theyll get fatigued you will get a dry cough and youll get diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms and often nausea with that you get all of these . No. Fever is the one you will get. The others arent as relevant to us if you have the symptoms, stay away from those at risk. Thank you, dr. Oz carson, over to you. Daily life is starting to look different businesses and schools and restaurants shutting their doors. Should you worry about being out in public . News medical correspondent, hes been busy this week, dr. John torres is back with us we have the avengers here. Crisis team. Good to see you lets play a game of fact or myth as far as being in public, whether you know them or not, seeing someone, shaking hands . You should stop shaking hands altogether ill say its a fact thats a fact at this point thats something not a lot of people are doing right now this thing passes, by people coughing and sneezing. If youre within a certain distance, you can get in they shake your hand and you wipe your face, you can get it, too. People are doing Different Things the knuckle and the elbow. Heard about the foot tap i like the foot tap. Thats another one, too that keeps them away from each other. That way, theyre not passing it on if they havent washed their hands. Fact or myth, you should stay at home or go out to eat should you simply stay at home ill say it is a myth, were not there yet. Thats a myth it depends where you are, too. Theres hot spots around the country. If youre in a hot spot, you want to be careful for the most of us, go ahead and eat. Its fine to do that think about the distance, talking the distance what is the distance . The distance is six feet. Lets measure it over here its six feet away grab this. Ill show you how far that is. If you get six feet away, right here, the droplets arent going to reach there they can go up to five feet. You will be far enough away so the droplets dont reach if youre at a concert, are you that far from somebody no. Right next to them how about a park . Probably. And Public Transportation no. Probably not. This is a time period you want to make sure were polite to everybody. Sometimes were embarrassed. Asking people not to do something. But if people are coughing and sneezing, ask them to cover up if youre in a car or a bus, and someone is coughing, sneezing, not covering up, its okay to get out and move same with the restaurants. It is okay to ask for another table to move. The politeness isnt what we need to have right now thank you, doc. Lets get to kristen a big concern on everyones mind, is it safe to travel investigative correspondent crick vicky nguyen has been looking at that angle. Good morning, kristen a lot of folks thinking about spring break should you think about cancelling that trip the coronavirus has been detected on every continent, except for antarctica. That being said, the cdc only issued a level three alert for four countries well show them. China, iran, italy, and south korea. Level three, avoid all nonessential travel to those countries. Avoid those countries what about travel within the u. S. And how about travel to countries not on the list . The cdc has a cool interactive map that allows you to hover over where youre thinking about going, and itll tell you the risk level. Look at the United States. Its in a light gray color there is a limited risk of Community Spread no state in the United States is at a higher risk than any other. California has more than 50 confirmed cases. Were planning to take our kids there to visit grandparents in three weeks. What do you do this is where you do a gutcheck. What is your personal risk tolerance . Were going to monitor and make a gametime decision i think people will benefit from that advice what if you do make the gametime decision and the decision is, hey, were not going to grandmas this weekend. Will airlines work with you to refund the ticket . You have to read the fine print. Airlines are trying to be flexible but each airline is different. The major ones on there, jetblue, and united. Executive from alaska emailed the customers saying he and his children are still going to hawaii for spring break. He understands not everyone is comfortable with travel. As you heard dr. Fauci say at the beginning of the today show this morning, Domestic Travel is okay vicky nguyen, great information. Craig, back to you i want to clear up something. We were talking about folks, 60 or older we want to make sure were very clear. Are you saying they should not travel or only if they have certain risk factors the data i gave you was from the chinese cdc. Thats the risk of dying if you have the coronavirus if you dont have the risk factors, though you may be 60, 70, 80, you dont have the risks. I would pull back if i have cardiovascular disease or an autoimmune problem if you get the coronavirus, you would have trouble weathering it age shouldnt be a cutoff by itself thank you for clearing that up mr. Roker, over to you the 65yearold guy happy to hear that. Not much happening out west. We have a low pressure system clipper coming across the great lakes. System off the midatlantic. Theyll combine causing problems over the weekend the biggest heat waves or heat, down through florida and southern california, southwest otherwise, temperatures seasonal were looking at gusty morning winds in the northeast, sunshine through the gulf into the plains record highs heading out west.

She opened her mouth, and nothing came out she had two major surgeries, openthroat surgeries. Had to do it twice shes changed her voice, but shes back singing and its low and gravelly. She kind of likes it now i dont think people realize, she completely lost her voice for a long time, and it took big surgeries to get it back. Unbelievable.

Reporter according to the usda, since 2012, the number of female farmers has increased by nearly 30 more than half of all farms in the u. S.

M and we will do a number of different jobs, from planting, pruning, any kind of tractor work im a farmer because i am a steward of the land. Reporter renee royal is vineyard manager at a winery in sonoma county. I get to grow cabernet and zinfandel. I represent the future of farming. I feel like women are finding this inner confidence to do things and to work in fields that dont traditionally look like them. Reporter they both hope to inspire future generations of female farmers its an exciting time to be a woman in agriculture because youre part of this set of pioneers who are leading the way for young women. I hope to see the trend continue that women are proud to say, hey, im a farmer all right and now, with us on the plaza, all the way from five marys warm in california.

The Women Farmers of america i love it. Amazing i love it i love it. Love it awesome, ladies. Welcome. Were going to talk to all of you ladies in a second well do that in a moment. First, mr. Roker is standing by, as well. What do you got, buddy stephanie is going to tell us about our final group of groundbreaking women heres a statistic you probably didnt know, al right now in medical school, more than half of the students are women. One of them is my niece fantastic were going to introduce you to trailblazing moms who are changing the face of surgery one stitch at a time dr. Shubec, a surgeon and a mom. Im a chief general surgery resident and a mom im dr. Basin, a second year ent resident and single mom. Reporter sarah, aerial and shannon are surgical residents theyre a growing community of mom surgeons, managing up to 12 hours in the operating room, with raising a family. Studies suggest less than a quarter of practicing surgeons are women. And it hasnt been an easy road to the o. R people thought i was overly ambitious to choose a medical specialty, given my circumstances as a single mother i didnt know any mothers that were single mothers and ent surgeons, but i would be the first. I always wanted to be a surgeon. And throughout medical school in particular, i was told that surgeons dont smile and therefore, i would never be happy in surgery because i didnt have the personality of a surgeon. When interviewing for residents, i got advice not to wear my Engagement Ring and not talk about wanting to have children its a unique thing to be a mom. Its a unique thing to be a surgeon. And its caused us to bond in a new way. Sharing those stories to know youre not alone is really important. Reporter with support from their family and a Strong Network of moms, they are paving the way for the next generation. I dont have to choose between motherhood and surgery i can do both. You ready im ready reporter sarah teamed up with ariel to produce guidelines for residents, to allow pumping more easily in between surgeries. When i saw women were struggling to find time or where to pump, we tried to get a creative workaround. Reporter some lactatio rooms existed. But they created systems of pumping closer to the operating rooms. It helps with efficiency and availability i was able to nurse my son and pump for my son. Really, because of these guidelines i think were going to see a big change in the face of surgery. Love you. Reporter and in the world of sarahs 3yearold daughter, the face of a surgeon will always be a mother hes a doctor like mom. And she was so confused. She said, men can be doctors and thats when i knew that things had changed joining us live on the plaza, from michigan medical in ann arbor, michigan, surgical resident dr. Sarah shubeck dr.
