Nationwide there were just other 37,000 hospitalizations. And when it comes to shortening those hospital stays or preventing deaths from the virus, the only drug given emergency use authorization for treating covid19 is now showing disappointing signs. According to a new study from the world health organization, remdesivir did not help patients live longer or get out of the hospital sooner. Despite all of this, President Trump continues to paint a rosy outlook for the nation while he is spreading misinformation about the use of masks. As far as the mask is concerned, im good with masks. I tell people to wear masks. But just the other day they came out with a statement that 85 of the people that wear masks catch it. They didnt say that. I know that study. Thats what i heard and thats what i say. What we have done has been amazing, and we have done an amazing job, and its rounding the corner, and we have the vaccines coming and we have the therapies coming. Doctor is joining us now to di
Welcome back, everybody. Im yasmin vossoughian. 17 days before election day, and with coronavirus cases on the rise, the president is crisscrossing the nation acting like a demented oprah winfrey. Instead of a free car, you get a super spreader event, as the president holds rallies in two battleground states, michigan and wisconsin. The president will be in seven states the next five days, trying to will into existence the momentum he craves in an election hes losing. Theres going to be a red wave next week. Its going to be unbelievable. And theyre talking about it. Not all republicans agree, though. Heres senator ben sasse talking about another type of red wave. Im now looking at the possibility of a republican bloodbath in the senate. And thats why ive never been on the trump train. Its why i didnt agree to serve on his Reelection Committee and its why im not campaigning for him. Joe biden will be in North Carolina tomorrow as he continues to focus on his main message. Today, trust i
Thousands more people at risk in superspreader events in two separate states. You see air force one there. This as millions of votes have already been cast. Well take you to one of the states seeing long lines. And were watching marches led across the country by women. And consequences, the president s winking nod to qanon and other conspiracy and fears of election violence. But we want to begin with the president en route to one of two Campaign Rallies that hes holding tonight. The president is taking his reelection push to michigan and wisconsin as well. Two states that he won back in 2016 but is now losing to joe biden in the polls. Nbcs Shannon Pettypiece is joining us at the white house. And monica alba. Shannon, im going to start with you today, the president is headed to wisconsin which has seen a major spike in covid cases. Reporter right, i asked White House Press secretary Kayleigh Mcenany today, who is just back after recovering from her own bout from covid19, i asked her, i
Pushed around, theres somebody very beautiful about it. So the president also used both his rallies yesterday to target michigan governor gretchen whitmer. [ crowd chanting ] lock them all up. Lock them all up, the president says there, which could be an Unofficial Campaign slogan. Its unclear what votes he hopes to win over with that part. But its especially disturbing when aimed at a woman whose family had to be moved multiple times because of a kidnapping plot involving rightwing extremists. Its incredibly disturbing that the president of the United States ten days after a plot to kidnap, put me on trial, and execute me, ten days after that was uncovered, the president is at it again and inspiring and incentivizing and inciting this kind of domestic terrorism. It is wrong. Its got to end. It is dangerous not just for me and my family but for Public Servants everywhere. And while President Trump will be spreading more division at another rally tonight in nevada, joe biden was campaig
