these vaccines which have been remarkably effective to respond? i know they re working on different vaccines that can respond to the omicron variant, but how are they supposed to get ahead of the curve when we don t know the next one that s going to come? exactly, laura. i think we have to think about what our goal post is. is it going to be prevention or just an infection which may be mild or may feel like a flu, or is it going to be prevention of people going into the hospital system and to preserve that resource. and arguably, i would say that with a booster, it doesn t matter what variant you have. you re going to be prevented from going to the hospital because our inside immune system is adapted. meaning it adapts to the new enemy at bay, even though antibodies, which is like getting the enemy in the front gate. once it gets in the house, you re going to kick that enemy out. that s what our current vaccines already do. dr. scott gottlieb you heard, the former fda commissioner,

state of texas for vote delusion. essentially saying that the new maps, the new maps signed into law for congressional and state house districts in the state of texas would underrepresent latino voters in the lone star state. i want to bring in jane tim, our justice correspondent pete williams you heard will join us in a moment. jane, we have both covered this extensively. a lot of folks in texas. a lot of democrats thought lawsuits against these maps would be inevitable, and there were some already filed. now the justice department is stepping in here. can you explain to people the issue here, why justice thinks that latino voters in particular in texas are having a raw deal on the maps? yeah. i mean, the numbers tell you a strong story. 95% of texas s huge population growth over the last ten years came from black and hispanic voters. but the districts are very much supporting republican voters, typically white voters with just zero of these opportunity
