Willie. Hes looking like the edward r. Pu murrough of our time. How was your weekend . It was good. The kids are rolling back to school. Were looking at some semblance of normalcy, but thats not possible with reporters Wearing Masks and the president still asking them to take them off despite everything we know. I havent been back to new york since the end of february. How is new york city doing . I get some reports its fine, but a lot of other people say, man, when you come back youre not going to recognize it at all, between the boarded up buildings and people have moved out. So many people have moved out. Look at times square this morning. 6 00 a. M. , nobody is there. Whats new york city like . Its strange. I mean, this is the tuesday after labor day, where there should be this massive rush of kids going to school and people going back to work and saying goodbye to summer. To me when i was back this summer it felt like summer, which is to say there werent a lot of people here. The
At that point right now. But its, everybody wants to know about transmissibility, and part of the reason is that the cdc has been so emphatic about it not being transmissable, yet people are hearing about transmissibility. Two people have it now. So it makes it like like look like the cdc is not being forth coming. It, clearly, seems to be a tough disease to understand in terms of how it transmits to people. And so far, again, its just two Health Care Workers who had real contact with patient and not, you know, anyone else in the general public. If it stays that way, i think confidence in the cdc will increase. But if not, i think friedens got a problem on his hands. Host no matter what the result of the midterms, theres a lot congress has to handle when they come back from the break. Whats the likelihood that ebola gets to the top of the line to do . Guest it will if more happens about people are catching this more frequently here, more passengers arriving from africa with it, more tr
Some. The alternative is illness and death for some. We believe we should hold a higher standard at present, and the white house has the tools to make these decisions right now, and we would like to have bcdc work with us on this and move forward the cdc work with us on this and move forward. The hearings clarified to the American People some aspects that a number of Government Agencies are looking at. I think it also sent mixed messages, saying that they believe, right now, that they construct folks to be honest and aware of all of their exposure, and they may not do that. I think that it is important that they know that congress is partners with the administration on this. We are pushing strong for this, we want to protect the American People. That is our first step. Again, i think the need for a travel ban is cleared. Reasoning, they said they need to make sure they have the opportunity for supplies and personnel, and yet they do not know the number of flies and personnel and suppli
Important Public Health issue of want toa virus, and i thank the centers for Disease Control and the nih and medical professionals across the country, especially those at Emory University health care, with been proactive in containing and treating the virus. I agree with president obama and all of you, we have to be as aggressive as possible in preventing any transition of the disease within the United States , and boosting containment in west africa. But i also think we need to pause here. This is a wakeup call for nihica that we cannot allow funding to stagnate any longer. Earlier this year in the Budget Committee i offered an amendment to the republican budget to restore the cuts to nih. The budget cuts that have been inflicted over the past two years, and repair the damage of the Government Shutdown last year. Unfortunately it has not passed, on a partyline vote. Wewill only save lives if can robustly find medical research in america and keep america is the world leader. I would li
