people who are eight months away from their initial immunization will be eligible for a third shot. isn t the problem, dr. collins, you mentioned data. we don t have all the data when it comes to breakthrough infections in particular with vaccinated individuals because the cdc for some bizarre reason back in may stopped collecting or stopped publishing, data on the number of breakthrough cases which don t result in hospitalization or death. they re only publishing hospitalizations and deaths among fully vaccinated people. many scientists, including dr. peter hotez, say that was a mistake. we need to see the data and understand fully what is going on. would you urge the cdc tonight to really publish a collect counting count of all of that data so we know the full picture? well, i think they have been hearing that. there are three papers published today by the cdc, one from new york state, one from nursing
information that s conveyed on our air waves. i agree the critiques about headlines, about false equivalency. certainly what we just saw from one america news, that s nonsense on the fringe, not in the mainstream. isn t the problem deeper than what you re addressing when you have people on tv talking crazy stuff about magnets? well, i think the problem of misinformation is a deep-seated problem because it s not just about misinformation, brian, it s about disinformation, the willful spread of myths and falsehoods. that is dangerous and we know that that is amplified on social media and on traditional media. have you reached out to one america news or news max or these other fringe sources? we ve reached out to many. i don t name the specific ones. but we have reached out to media organizations across the political spectrum. there are many more out there that we need to engage with and that more broadly need to hear from their consumers about the fact that this kind of, the
what do you say about the decision to pull out so quickly, and what do you say to your own government? see, the pullout isn t the problem. the pullout, i guess it was time. they should have done it, right? a few thousand troops cannot defend the whole country. they re not superheroes. they could have pressured us, be it the government, be it the taliban, they could have pressured them into not abusing citizens, especially afghan women. but they didn t do that. that s what makes me sad that people are not accountable in 21st century for the lives of afghans or any human being for that stance. right now afghans life don t matter is something that you u.s. tried coming to afghanistan and stayed here for two decades, claiming they were here for afghan people, right? then if you re not here for afghan people but you had the leverage, you claimed to be a
