on airplanes. he s not saying others should, but i thought i d ask dr. bob lahita that. always great having you with, my friend. he s playing it conservatively, dr. fauci, saying he s over 80 years old, thinks it s a good idea for him. what do you tell patients? well, the numbers are up, neil. everybody, it seems, all of my friends seem to be infected, and this omicron is extremely transmissable. and, you know with, a federal appeals court just knocked down the cdc mandate or for masks on public transportation. i think it s up to the individual. if you ve got co-morbidities, you re on chemotherapy or have an autoimmune disease, i think it s prudent to wear a mask on airplanes and, certainly, the worst part is in the air terminal where people are cheek to jowl if anybody has flown, particularly over this weekend. neil: right. you know, i m wondering too, we get this sort of whack-a-mole
we better get used to it. dr. bob lahita, thank you very much. thank you. neil: we have a lot more coming up including the latest on a bipartisan push to solve the school violence and shooting violence that we ve been seeing in this country that might not necessarily have everything to do about guns. after this. . only from discover. an unthinkable genocide took the lives of six million jews and thousands of jewish survivors are still suffering in poverty today.
