if both the russians and the chinese are in confidence they can an offense against the united states and those are dangerous signs. another big blunder from the commander-in-chief. president harris and i - president harrison i took a virtual tour of the vaccination center in arizona. ainsley: we always say that. what a morning, you all. that s a beautiful shot of the lands. hello to our friends down there in georgia. peter, glad to be back with you. brian: i got sick of seeing all the new york city shots and videos and i said guys, let s get shots from around america. peter: hold on, i m from kansas. could we possibly get a shot from somewhere out - we are getting a live shot right now from oklahoma which is not from kansas but were going to bethany, oklahoma. lawrence jones is live at the stray dog café in oklahoma. lawrence, you got to start by fearing out this morning over the next three hours why they call that place the stray dog. reporter: no, i m done tryin
and i would be continuing to find out what this has we re showing as far as their. i would be alerts and concerned. but i think that would probably be back at my house. it s that the best guidance? he would be finding out what the tests are showing? what are the test showing? he s now telling them to be tricky bottled water. i m a little bit confused about why this message is so muddled. i am very concerned. this is been going on under this entire disaster. talking about both sides if you will. that s even been happening with the agencies. the testing isn t even near complete. the testing that they are relying on is coming from norfolk. so this is a situation where the people don t trust at all. i would ve never advise the community, who had been evacuated, to come back home. in so you had an all clear. they were told to come back home too soon. they now don t believe that it is safe to live there.

everyone thought we were done, we had independence day from covid. some of us said, no, we re aren t done, the variants will continue to be game changers and make it much more complicated. the vaccines don t offer us lifelong protection or for that matter complete protection. we re seeing testing isn t adequate. not just here in the united states. europe, which has been heralded with having some of the best testing in the world are struggling with testing themselves. so science and the general public have continued to underestimate this virus. what we re seeing could be some of the darkest days of the pandemic, numbers that are going to literally make it very difficult to run our every day lives. we ve just got to get through it. we will get through it, but the bottom line is do not
