he s struggling to keep his business running and you ll see exactly why. plus, dr. sanjay gupta with reporting on the delta variant that could soon make up half of covid infections in the united states. to support local restaurants, we ve been to every city, including baton rouge. and even topeka. yeah, we re exhausted. whew! so, tonight. i ll be eating the roast beef hero from.parm.in.soho. (doorbell) excellent. and, tonight. i ll be eating the coconut curry chicken from.pikliz.in. winter hill. (doorbell) (giggle) oh, they re excellent. i had so many fried plantains i thought i was going to hurl. do ya think they bought it? this past year has felt like oh yeah. a long, long norwegian winter. do ya think they bought it? but eventually, with spring comes rebirth. everything begins anew. and many of us realize a fundamental human need to connect with other like-minded people.
heading to the polls. it is one of the most watched mayoral races in the country. america s biggest city. i ll talk to bill de blasio what he expects once the votes are counted tonight. dr. fauci warning the highly contagious delta variant is the quote greatest threat in covid. dr. sanjay gupta has reporting on the highly contagious strain. .from a lot of that. keep your car cleaner longer. armor all extreme shield plus ceramic. like many people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn s disease, i was there. be right back. but my symptoms were keeping me from where i needed to be. so i talked to my doctor and learned humira is the #1 prescribed biologic for people with uc or crohn s disease. and humira helps people achieve remission that can last,
yang and kathryn garcia decided to campaign together and they were trying to take advantage of the rank choice and give the impression of well, put me as one and the other person as two. that was the concept to beat the person who from the polls seemed to be ahead, eric adams. adams said this is an effort to suppre suppress black votes. here he is. for them to come tagt like they are doing in the last three days, they re saying we can t trust a person of color to be the mayor of the city of new york. do you think that s fair, mayor deblode blasio. it was strange to form an alliance ator than early on in the election. you expect alliances between people that share views, not sure these two do. so i think it creates a certain amount of confusion. i don t think it was so much about race as about yes, an effort to win the election but
not just unpredictable but highly consequential and not lost on the voters and del democratic primary will be the person that will lead the city as mayor. when it comes to the issues people are thinking about when they are coming out to the polls, i had the opportunity to speak to many voters. some are affordable housing, unemployment. one of the big issues is they want this issue, this overwhelming issue of crime in the city addressed. this is what some voters said today. there is definitely a lot of crime going on in this city but there also needs to be a lot of training for police. so it s one of those things where it kind of is a double ended sword. i know maya wiley wanted to move a billion out of the police budget into other things so i feel like would help the community. we re talking about the vast inequality in the city and the racial inequality in the city.
we re a transiant city. a lot of people that moved back haven t come back. the aspiring actors and singers make up a good majority of our work force in hospitality so those are the two major problems that we re facing at the moment. so i began by saying it s great to see you just because now you re talking about how to fully get employees and it s obviously serious challenges but i remember the first time that i saw you. it was in march of 2020 and obviously, the world was in a very terrifying place. you didn t know whether your business would survive the shut down and trying to figure out how to live through this and you were so worried. your wife, your 2-year-old daughter. here is what you told kyung lah on that day. are you scared? i m concerned. yeah.
