president biden said to president zelenskyy when they met here when the president asked for those fighters jets and, you know, i m not pleased with what i m hearing out of the mouths of former u.s. officials, the former deputy secretary-general who is an american said, well, the reason we can t give fighter jets is because it takes a long time to train ukrainian fighter pilots. well, had they done this before the full-scale invasion, ukraine pilots would be in a position probably right now to get into the cockpits of those jet, so i think it s a very weak argument and i think it only serves to prolong the war even further. michael, you sent us some video you ve taken of the emptiness of the streets there. the emptiness of store shelf, the emptiness of train stations. we ll play some of that for our viewers right now and so what is it like to be living there? sure, well, it s very sad actually and i ve been here on and off since before the start of the war. you know, you can see the
a lot of folks i know which are pictures of store shelves empty where the children s tylenol used to be what is your level of concern about those being at least hard to get how should parents be thinking about that it feels like it s at that moment where, are you going to stock up it s tough to find places to stock up and you re holding it just in case you need it, which isn t a good thing either. what should people do? a couple of things to keep in mind number one, i don t say this as a cop-out answer if there s any time to speak to your pediatrician, now is the time there are a lot of things you can do to manage that, quote/unquote, empty store shelf. you can use generic versions of the drugs. there s another brand that makes tylenol and ibuprofen. we don t have to keep on going with tylenol and advil and motrin

last through the winter but recognize there could be some shortages, particularly on the east coast. what does this signal to you? should we be concerned? yes, alex it s a problem and let s get back to a number of reasons for it, it goes back to the russian invasion of ukraine. the disruptions to pushing oil supplies and refined product. and as you can imagine it s a much bigger problem in europe, the shortage of diesel as much more severe but because it s a global market, and we are exporting these are from here to there, it is rivaling upheaval prices here as well. it is a problem and not only about enough food prices, a big cost of getting food from the farms and the store shelf is the cost of transportation. that is diesel, shimmy factors to get. also meeting about a fourth or maybe a fit of households in the northeast. that use diesel to heat their homes during the winter and obviously it s getting cold outside. so this is a problem. i know you market and looking ahead to the
