How the worlds 1st vaccine were told is 19 but many are waiting to see more data well get a better understanding of what an Infectious Disease expert and Airline Stocks are taking off after 8 travel numbers and hope for a package fail on the future of travel it remains unclear we have a lot to get to the start. Russia announced approval of the worlds 1st Coronavirus Vaccine but this doesnt come without any concerns over its safety and effectiveness on a video News Conference russian president Vladimir Putin emphasized that the vaccine is safe and effective while critics argue the treatment only one through small trials. Will do i know it has proven efficient and forms a stable immunity and i would like to repeat that it has passed all necessary tests one of my daughters has been vaccinated in the sense she has taken part in the experiment after the 1st shot. Bechstein had a temperature of 38 degrees celsius 100 degrees fahrenheit on the following day it was just over 37 degrees 98. 6 degrees fahrenheit after the 2nd shot the temperature went up slightly and then it was all over shes feeling well and has a high number of antibodies you can use the moscow based institute will it develop the vaccine sputnik 5 as a homage to the countrys 1st space satellite there have been 2 rounds of testing so far and chief executive of the Russian Direct Investment Fund said face 3 to Clinical Trials well theyre scheduled to start as soon as this week. Is starting right up through just trace so basically it will start a sort of moral will go on should also in all this dissociated in the u. A. E. And saudi arabia in philly be able to hopefully also in brazil and those countries will just be a street trials all of the data will be published. Well official large Scale Production will start in september and could be available in mass as early as october and reportedly nearly 2 dozen countries there already placing orders for the vaccine c. E. O. Of the Russian Direct Investment Fund said that it had already received orders for a 1000000000 doses meanwhile tens of thousands of people will receive the vaccination in russia well the country hasnt yet published any data on the vaccine but this is pretty normal for russia for example sputnik the satellite was orbiting in space for nearly a week before the country disclosed its launch in 1957 well we can probably expect a similar approach to sputnik the vaccine in 2020. On this on the krona virus vaccine we bring in dr William Schaffner with the valuable University Medical center dr schaffner thank you for joining us today lets start with this 1000000. 00 question theres no published data even though we just heard from the chief saying that the results from the face 3 trial will be published so is this mark seen going to be safer. Effective. Well we certainly hope so and the phase 3 trial of course will tell us that one patient even though the prime ministers daughter is not sufficient to get a vaccine out to hundreds of thousands if not millions of people and there is a little bit of confusion about how quickly this vaccine will be distributed to the population or whether they are going to wait until the results of that phase 3 trial are available which is of course the way we intend to do it right well let me ask you this dr weve seen a modern also start their face 3 trial here in the United States how whats the difference between my durness trial and what russia is announcing that theyve completed a phase 2 trial and are just starting on face the trial. Im not sure there is a big difference as long as there were reports of course that russia was going to start immunizing the population at the same time it started its phase 3 trial thats where the difficulty came in no it sounds as though as described the phase 3 trial is quite comparable to whats happening here in the west well earlier this month dr fox he said the u. S. Wont you is a vaccine that was developed by china or even russia but other countries like announced are starting to place their orders of billions if this vaccine ends up working is a u. S. Going to fall behind will it stand by what it said. Oh i think it will stand by what it said because for us to accept vaccines. Developed in other countries our food and Drug Administration would have to be closely involved in the design and the analysis of those studies and we havent seen those well we havent yet and the f. D. A. Has been very vocal about being involved in all of this its interesting how they werent as involved when it came to these antibody studies there were certain testing of the krona virus but they definitely want to take when it comes to the vaccine but speaking of vaccines here in the United States many expected it to be here before election day but many are saying that itll probably be available later this year but some experts are even saying that there is no way its going to happen by november 3rd yet here we are seeing russia already actively distributing a vaccine to the public to the hundreds of thousands is this a victory for russia or are there still too many unknowns with their vaccine. Oh their own nose with their vaccine and of course their own knowns with any vaccines that we are developing here in the west the steven among the food and drug administrator the commissioner has been very clear and very rigorous about the nature of the. Evidence that will be required before we can say honestly to the u. S. Population this vaccine is affected how effective it is how safe it is and who should get it we need to have that very clearly in mind as we talk to the people in the United States on as were seeing here were seeing some record timing for the rush the global rush for the vaccine shouldnt these countries from the United States russia china name the country shouldnt we all be working together toward getting a vaccine. Well i think there are over 150 scientific groups around the world actually working to develop vaccines against covert and thats to the good there are many different approaches that are being taken and we sure can use as much help as we can get will definitely end because much like you mentioned there is going to be a rush to get this vaccine out even of a vaccine does become available you said the f. D. A. Will obviously need to want to be very involved with what the process but a recent gallup poll actually shows that one in 3 americans or 35 percent say they wouldnt get a free f. D. A. Approved vaccine if it was ready today what does this say about public trust in u. S. Government. Well actually what it says is that the public is pretty sensible here we have a brand new virus about which were learning more every day were making brand new vaccines in the using methods that havent been used extensively in the past so a little bit of healthy skepticism is appropriate they meet its our responsibility to get the information now when its ready in a clear enough fashion so that we can convince our fellow citizens to come in and roll up their sleeves get the vaccine and help all of us together to try to get this vaccine this virus under control all and much like you said dr l. Looks like this is obviously supposed to be a global after an effort to find a cure for people to feel safe but assuming the best Case Scenario that were looking at and there is a vaccine that are currently being developed and deployed that one of them actually works will cover 1000 ever really go away because many say that will either need a booster a vaccine after the 1st one or a vaccine may not be anough 2 to really help your immune system. I think we can be sure that this virus is not just going to disappear i think like influenza it will be part of our life we hope in a very very profoundly reduced fashion. And we hope to get there in large measure through the use of vaccines extensively and once that happens i think we can have the covert virus under very very good control but it will take sustained attention and it may well be as you suggest that every so often every year every 5 years we may have to get a booster vaccine but thats true of many vaccines that we take as adults and they offer the flu season every year as well so i guess that could be some of your family or dot. So youre the expert here i want to ask you this if you are a volunteer for example for an experimental vaccine thats going in to face 3 trial and then youre going to be followed essentially for 2 years right we have been having this conversation here in the studio and im sure others of you would like to know how are you then being going to be prevented from getting a new more effective vaccine in the meantime or is that open that you can just even if youre in a trial you can go in and get a new vaccine wanted to vailable. One of the conditions of being a volunteer in the trial is that you can pull out of the experiment at any time for any reason we dont restrict your freedom of course we would like people to remain in the trial so that we can get the final answers unadulterated by these complications of getting additional vaccines that would make you you know legible would make the data from your particular contribution difficult if not impossible to interpret so obviously we would like to keep everybody in the trial for as long as possible well thats thats the hope for it and that some of these trials one of them of the many that weve weve looked at and mention work so that we can become go back to a new normal i guess that is after what we saw the last year because thats definitely a new normal that is dr William Schaffner with the vanderbilt University Medical center we really appreciate you making time for us today and and i getting your your expert insight. Thank you so much good to be with you. Airline stocks are seeing some big gains this week as investors are eyeing a nearly 25000000000. 00 relief package won sunday t. S. A. Saw the highest single day total passengers of more than 831000. 00 people that pass through t. S. A. Checkpoints now this was the highest since and that march despite the increased t. S. A. Traffic is still 70 percent down compared to last year well the Airlines Financial losses continue to grow and executives are warning it could cost tens of thousands of jobs without Government Support together american and United Airlines warned more than 60000. 00 employee jobs are at risk for more on the sector were joined by allied Pilots Association communication chairman Dennis Dennis good to see you thanks for being with us today this is a great to be back with you this is a particularly crucial season were looking at a summer peak Vacation Time that we we normally see and were seeing some highs but whats going to happen after the summer demand fades away that travel rush. Well and im a pilot for American Airlines and ive been out there flying and so we saw exactly what you reported an increase in flying it came down into a play it so with the resurgence and just as you talked we saw over 800000 throughput since he has d say thats great to see thats 9 times as many folks 900 percent increase from the very low point back in april 12th still a long lot of runway to go as you mentioned were going to come into the fall season which is what we call a shoulder season so travel decreases as well but theres a lot a lot of static in their kids are going to be back at school theres certainly a pent up demand but thats juxtaposed the concern for where do you go and what can you do when you get there i think that a lot of people have realized that Airline Travel being on an air. Playing with the mess with the help of filters in the air flow that we have going through its a safe environment but where do you go and what do you do when you get there is a key component of travel and theres not much data out there that says that you are more at rest to getting contracting corona virus if you travel on a plane especially when youre youre wearing a mask or its only its not at 100 percent capacity but yes people are very pent up after being walked down so because of this could we see sustained travel if cases begin to fall in and americans and feel safer taking the skies well especially after these these last couple of months. I think youre right and actually there is evidence that it is actually safe to travel as in weve not had any best of. Outbreaks that have been traced to an airplane so the data shows that it is safe we wouldnt be flying i would be flying is get them so i knew my best years were saved so where does it go from here where do our passengers decide to fly its going to be of critical importance as you mention with the cares act we are currently in stand along with other unions Many Republican senators now have signed off on congressmen and women and the democrats as well with an extension for the care sector weve got to be there when our passengers want to fly and we saw this safe and they have a place to go if were not there flying the airplane it takes up to a year to retrain us if we get all laid off or many of us do so were going to lose the recovery if were not ready to roll nestle the cares act investment the extension of that investment is so critical at this time its so vital and were looking at such a big timeline now the Airline Relief package simulate that wasnt included in the executive order that President Trump signed over the weekend but theyre both parties that they look like they might be ready to start negotiations again although there is no date on when that could be what could we be looking at in october. Is there hope that they can reach the steel and what kind of offer or package could we see for airlines in october. Well we sure hope so we know that our elected officials including President Trump who is affirmed his support of the airlines know how important it is to our free trade into our National Security and in october when it comes we want to see an answer closer in and that can be handled as we speak but i want to add that its not just airline jobs and are actually 76000 notices that have gone out in the u. S. There is a ratio of a little over 13 jobs outside the industry that are generated from airline jobs so when you multiply that out simple math is youve got over a 1000000 jobs on the line if they dont come up with an extension cares achatz basically holding she will for us until we get to as your doctor who so eloquently. Stated all the situation get us to that back seeing all of thats got to intersect and if it does it the right time we will not lose this momentum it will be on our way to recovery globally not just in the u. S. On much like you said that were seeing more Airlines Start to to require mass theres no National Mass mandate but because the airlines are really enforcing people Wearing Masks ive heard of peoples experiences where they say that people are walking down up and down the aisles requiring people to wear a mask so im sure thats also increasing the the Safety Measures and the trust that people put on one flying on planes but its all part of it thanks to you and me of the employees and the people that they keep these airlines running dentist hater of the allied Pilots Association we really appreciate your time and being with us today. Thank you. For a quick break but stay here because when we return we break down the game growing on wall street and what russians vaccine it could mean for the Global Economy as we go to break here the numbers on the cloud. Rather than revolution resource soldiers thats the cooperation when you have a tiny group of people who have all the power you have to have some means to make sure the rest of us dont get together and take a. Lease or sacrifice some. Places that capitalism exploited and destroyed for profit and left behind misery poverty environmental devastation and so you see things like Voter Suppression building more prisons you seem gerrymandering all sorts of democratic practices are well in that world were well into. Question the. This week german officials dismissed the latest u. S. Sanction threats over the construction of the north stream to gas pipeline republican senator sent a letter threatening to impose crushing legal on economic sanctions on the port of needs on the german baltic sea well during a joint press conference with his russian counterpart German Foreign minister. Said those threats will not work if this transatlantic relationship with the United States goes deeper than just day to Day Development yet we must make it very clear the tensions between partners are definitely the wrong way and ultimately it remains our sovereign decision where we get our energy from no state has the right to dictate europes Energy Policy were right and this also will not work. Well Russian Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said theyll continue to Work Together and that washingtons criticism is a misrepresentation of the facts. Just a few participants of the campaign nord stream to including russian participants german participants and others are determined that this project should be completed from. The u. S. Are use a pipeline is a Severe Threat to the National Security of the u. S. U. S. Equities continue to grind higher today as traders rotate out of tech names and back into the reopening trade names that would benefit most from a reopening of an economy such as cruise lines and airlines like we just spoke of while sentiment lifted on more hopes for a vaccine despite the uncertainty of further crowd of our stimulus thats aimed at supporting these struggling americans joining me now to help the theo of opium us and boom bust cohost Christine Octavia lets start with you is it too soon to be so optimistic that a vaccine will be the cure all solution here and that everythings just going to resume like it was before and return to normal isnt the damage already done here. The damage is definitely done but im not trying to agree with the very premise of your question i think what weve seen in the market some fall today is quite the opposite so were going to you know sort of bizarre scenario right now with good news is actually bad news for the markets so lets assume this vaccine works as advertised and covert 19 goes away in every direction all working is that before then goes away as the entire stimulus package and all the monk should policy thats been pumped into the markets and so will actually quite bounce the market and we did actually see in that last sort of the trading on quite a decline there and we saw a big big hit in the gold market today so gold was down about 5 percent today for this very reason so gold has been sort of seen as a safe to bet against inflation coming from Monetary Policy if the economy returns to normal Monetary Policy to us return to normal and that would be very bad for gold would be very bad for tech stocks and we bad for the stocks overall so were in a very strange environment. No good news coming out of russia if this one actually went to work. But if it actually does work its going to be actually. Turns out that it is working as a really are kind of seeing that volatility that we spoke of and no longer hopeful for that you shape or that v. Shaped recovery not even a u. Shape at this point but kristie part of this damage to the economy is in the Small Business sector thats where the most part were goes and accounted for because data is really very scarce there now yelp actually is showing that more than 80000 local businesses they permanently shuttered between the months of march and july but what impact do these Small Businesses have on the overall economy Small Businesses have a huge impact on the u. S. Economy collectively because firms with fewer than 500. 00 employees they actually account for about 44 percent of all of us Economic Activity and they employ almost half of all of American Workers so most of these businesses they were inherently financially fragile to begin with as a majority of Small Businesses they only have about 2 weeks of cash on hand at the start of the crisis so even as the economy began to reopen active employment has been reduced by 39 percent with services and hospitality taking even harder hit exceeding 50 percent so at the start of the crisis most people believe that this would be temporary lasting only through june and july however the longer that things kind of dragged on the more unsustainable the outlook became so while yelp is only showing about 80000. 00 local businesses shutting down a recent harvard study believe that this number is likely to be much much higher coming in at about 110000 Small Businesses that have permanently closed across the country based on data by a line of all so closures on such an immense of massive scale such as this one could devastate the entire countrys Economic Growth dragging down employment even more and Small Businesses that are determined to remain open its really difficult because they now have to keep up with the constantly changing local guidelines and so as this continue we will most likely see. Local communities fall into poverty especially because a lot of these Small Businesses and businesses overall arent even working at 100 percent capacity which is why were seeing the unemployment numbers continue to grow. Lets turn over to relationship between china and the United States now theyre continuing to deteriorate as new u. S. Sanctions really theyre adding the uncertainty for these global banks that are looking to tap to the Chinese Market whats the latest. Well so far we sort of seen a bit of a tit for tat kind of going on between the u. S. And china so the chinese and the americans have respect for it puts sanctions on certain individuals politically connected people the u. S. Put sanctions on the chief executive of hong kong the chinese have put some sanctions on some u. S. Senators people like marco rubio and ted cruz its not entirely sure what those chinese sanctions actually consist of i dont think ted cruz has too many accounts Bank Accounts in china that are going to close down most or taken over by the Chinese Government so its a bit unclear what those sanctions really mean in practice but i think its largely symbolic at this stage so i think we can only hope that it stays that should stage remain symbolic but in the broader picture really is that with hong kong now being more fully integrated into china hong kongs liability is a big Financial Center in asia is really under threat and in a very big and very serious way and i think obviously markets like singapore and taiwan will step into that and sort of pick up the slack there in particular singapore will be sort of the destination for those funds coming in the coming ranks and yes some are already seeing part of that quick quick answer here kristie Political Tension they continue to escalate here theres putting investors in a tough spot on where to put their money they usually try to ride on Chinese Investment real estate that is whats happening here. Any year over year because sales volume of us poppy valued at 2500000. 00 and above by Chinese Capital that plunged by 68 percent year over year the 1st 6 months of the year already especially in cities such as los angeles new york and chicago and whereas investments in the Industrial Property that was hit the part of strength by 92 percent followed by residential and then finally commercial assets so as not to say that all of it stemmed from coronavirus of pullback also came as david just mentioned the friction between u. S. And china as investors just wait on the sidelines to see how the political theater shakes out for sure its not going to stop here. And boom bust cohost christine thank you for your time thank you. Thats it for this time ill see you next time. I feel it but its more to the someone messed it up but just. Watch the. First year march or im going to. Want to. Push some. More of them.
