Available worldwide but the decision is pitting the White House against big pharma. Also, liz Cheneys Message to her party. History is watching. As she faces being ousted from the republican house leadership. And the number of unruly Air Passengers is skyrocketing. There have been 1,300 complaints in the past three months and the faa is planning to hand out some big fines. Live from cnn World Headquarters in atlanta, welcome to all of you watching in the United States, canada and Around The World. Im kim brunhuber. This is cnn newsroom. The World Trade Organization is meeting today to discuss whether Patent Protections should be waived and whether nations everywhere should be allowed to make their own generic versions of the drugs. A w. T. O. Decision to waive those Trade Rules has to be unanimous. One crucial holdout has been the u. S. But on wednesday, the Biden Administration finally said it would support the waivers. U. S. Trade represent Aative Catherine Thai explained why. They believe in Property Protections but in service of ending this pandemic supports the waiver of those protections for covid19 vaccines. Vaccinemakers are against giving away their patents. The head of americas pharmaceutical Trade Group said waivers will lead to chaos. This decision will sow confusion between public and private partners, further weaken Supply Chains and foster the proliferation of counterfeit vaccines. Now despite those concerns, u. S. Health officials say the decision to support waivers was ultimately a humanitarian one. Listen to this. There was a statement that put people over patents. It was about leading in the world and helping producing what the world needed at a time of unprecedented crisis. Its a country that my parents dreamt of before they moved to the United States. A country i feel blessed to serve as surgeon general. If we stick together, work together, if we help work and collaborate with countries Around The World, i believe well turn this pandemic around. So while u. S. Support for waivers is important, it doesnt mean anything will happen right away. Negotiations of the w. T. O. Will likely take weeks or months to fine tune the rules. Cnns Kaitlan Collins has the details. Reporter the Biden Administration has now come out in favor of waiving those Intellectual Property Rights when it comes to the covid19 vaccines. This is something that had been under debate of what their formal position was going to be over the last several days. You were really seeing pressure start to build on the administration for waiving those Property Rights because they, of course, want companies and countries to be able to mass produce these vaccines given what we are seeing happen in places like India And Brazil and other countries that area they are struggling with Coronavirus Infections or have not yet ramped up their vaccination rates. So this still has to go through a w. T. O. Process and president Bidens Trade Rep Katherine Tai acknowledged that. They do respect 3 4ual Property Rights but also recognize that were in a pandemic and its important to get as many people vaccinated right now as possible. And so that is where their position is. That seemed like where they were going to go since President Biden said hed commit to sharing vaccines, waiving patents to make sure the world was getting vaccinated if the u. S. Was one of the first countries to develop the vaccine. But, of course, the question of how this plays out and whether or not it helps these countries in the near future is something that remains to be seen. Theyve not figured that out yet. White house officials say it could be that its easier to share vaccines. Maybe sell them at cost. How those companies decide to navigate this remains to be seen. We know this is a decision the Pharmaceutical Industry did not want to see. They did not want these Property Rights waived but the administration says its a pandemic and so they had to do it. Kaitlan collins, cnn, the White House. Waiving international Patent Protections is just one of several proposals to meet the global demand for vaccines. But whatever path is chosen, the top u. S. Infectious Disease Specialist says theres a moral imperative to act quickly. I believe we have a moral obligation, steve, to make sure that the rest of the world does not suffer and die as it were from something that we can help them with and help to prevent. Weve got to get to the End Game. And the End Game is the equitable distribution of vaccines. So however we get there, its fine with me. We just need to get there. Indias Covid Crisis is having a Domino Effect on countries in africa. The Indian Government has suspended the export of vaccine doses and that coupled with a slow rollout in Vaccine Hesitancy means some african countries are being left very vulnerable. South africas Foreign Minister says the Global Community must suspend Covid Vaccine Patents in order to end the pandemic. David mckenzie joins us from South Africa. What kind of difference could it make . It could make a difference in the medium term, kim. South africa and india originally proposed this temporary waiver of the patent. At the point of whether the w. T. O. Actually members actually agree unanimously to do this, we are still looking at several months down the line. Then youd have to up the manufacturing capacity. But theres an immediate crisis looming amongst several african countries because they use the doses that they received from covax, the global Vaccine Alliance very efficiently, particularly in kenya. And now the second doses that they were promised are not arriving. We spoke to a senior humanitarian official who said while its been publicly announced that march and april that indians Institute Wont be able to export vaccines because of the crisis there because they need to help their own population, they say may as well, possibly june, and we dont even know about july yet. So that shows a much more serious scenario that vaccines might not be flowing to poorer countries. I spoke to the head of the Vaccine Task Force in kenya. He says that solidarity is needed now. When you start hearing certain populations are getting vaccines and you are not, yes, the feeling of kind of discrimination in the process. So for me, i am hoping that the Global Community comes together, looks at this as really a global effort. 80 of the vaccines given out at this point roughly have been given in rich and high middle income countries, kim. So that means you really look at a scenario that some parts of the world will be moving on pretty effectively from this in the coming months. But many parts of the world will be stuck in a cycle of wave after wave of covid19. Now there is one other solution to the immediate need of countries like kenya, botswana and others that have been very efficient in giving their first doses, and thats for rich countries to donate their extra doses, particularly of the astrazeneca vaccine. There are moves to do that. But activists and advocates say that needs to happen a lot quicker, otherwise people will feel theyve been let down very badly in this. Lets hope they get the help they need one way or another. David mckenzie in johannesburg, thanks. There is some good news on the covid19 vaccine front. Moderna says a Booster Shot of its vaccine ramps up the immune response against two warring virus variants, The One first seen in South Africa and The One in brazil. And a report from pfizer shows it can protect against vaccines including The One first seen in the uk. Theyre trying to get out ahead of these variants before they spread even further. The design of the new mrna vaccines from Moderna And Pfizer make that goal easier since the genetic sequences can be tweaked in a lab. The vaccines are working as planned, but the key is still to have as many people take them as possible, obviously, which is why President Biden is setting another big Vaccination Goal to try and pick up the pace. As Amara Walker reports, his strategy is to keep it simple. Were going to make it as easy as possible. Making it easy. Easier than ever. Reporter a shift in Vaccine Strategy making it even easier to get a shot in the hopes of meeting President Bidens new pledge to get at least one shot into the arms of 70 of american adults and 160 Million fully vaccinated by july 4th. That amounts to approximately 100 Million shots over the next two months. Its a Stretch Goal but its an achievable goal. Reporter the plan includes focusing on smaller Community Vaccination sites. Putting in walkin capabilities in 40,000 or so pharmacies throughout the country, getting mobile units going. Reporter cvs and walgreens are offering walkin shots. No appointment needed. And Cdc Director Dr. Rochelle walensky tells cnn 12 to 15yearolds could be getting vaccinated against the coronavirus in less than two weeks. The vaccine is already in these pharmacies at the dose that we need. And so soon after acip, i think youll be able to take your 14yearold and bring them in to get vaccinated. Reporter as summer approaches, the cdc is recommended that children and staff at Summer Camps wear masks except when eating and swimming. Also maintaining social distancing. All while outdoors. But the guidance is getting mixed reaction. If people are playing tennis and they are far away, we can recommend we can say their masks can come off. But if they are crowded on a Soccer Field or on top of each other, heavily breathing, we really dont think thats a good idea right now. It looks a bit strict, a bit stringent, but thats the reason they keep looking at that and trying to reevaluate, literally in realtime. Reporter daily new infections have dropped 12 in the past week but the average daily rate of vaccinations has been declining, too. Under 1 Million doses administered for the first time since march. Right now 32 of the u. S. Population is now fully vaccinated, according to cdc data. F. Were really going to significantly slow the spread of this virus well need to be around 80 plus population immunity. Reporter Walensky Warning we could still see another surge this winter. We have to be humbled with this virus. We have variants ahead of us. We have not full immunity in this population yet. So i think anything is possible. Reporter in the meantime, some states and cities are planning or beginning to fully reopen. And that include Los Angeles and san francisco. Beginning on thursday, theyll allow most businesses to resume indoor operations. Also, new york, new jersey, connecticut will be lifting capacity restrictions, including in restaurants, gyms, retail and even on broadway. Also, Chicagos Mayor is saying that her goal is to fully reopen the city by the fourth of july. In dekalb county, georgia, Amara Walker, cnn. Republican representative Liz Cheney says her party is at a turning point. Cheney is an outspoken critic of former President Donald Trump and his lies about fraud in the president ial election. In an oped in the washington post, cheney wrote, trump is seeking to unravel critical elements of our constitutional structure that make democracy work. Confidence in the result of elections and the rule of law. No other american president has ever done this. The republican party is at a turning point, and the republicans must decide whether we are going to choose Truth And Fidelity to the constitution. Cheneys opinions come at a price. Trump loyalists are campaigning to oust her as the third Ranking Republican in the u. S. House. Ryan nobles has more on a party divided. Reporter former President Trump is tightening his grip on the republican party. You are killing them. You are killing them. Reporter trump, who learned wednesday that he would not be allowed back on facebook is still finding ways to exert his influence. Putting his full support behind new York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik to replace wyomings Liz Cheney as the number three ranking house republican. Elise stefanik is a far superior choice, and she has my complete and total endorsement for gop conference chair. Cheneys rapid demise is a sign of the direction of the republican party. A party that is increasingly devoted to trump and ready to dump any republican unwilling to support trumps Big Lie that he actually won the 2020 election. Ive had it with her. You know, ive lost confidence. Reporter while up until now, republicans like Minority Leader Kevin Mccarthy expressed their doubts about cheney privately, many are now going public. Gop Whip Steve Scalise offering up an endorsement of stefanik. And stefanik herself tweeted her plans to challenge cheney with trumps support. Even cheney is resigned to her fate. Unlike the last time her Leadership Position was challenged, she has decided not to Phone Colleagues to plead her case. She will not resign, but is ready to shift her focus to a broader goal. The fight for the soul of the gop. Even prominent republicans who in the past supported cheney are not rushing to her defense. 100 of my focus is on stopping this new administration. Reporter senate Minority Leader Mitch Mcconnell refusing to offer any support to cheney. This while mcconnell himself is still facing trumps wrath. Despite his ongoing Social Media ban, the former president launching a new website where hes airing his grievances and putting mcconnell in the same group with cheney and his former Vice President mike pence. Trump calling mcconnell gutless and clueless. And attacking pence for certifying the 2020 election in congress. Trump making it clear that the number one criteria for his support is defending his Big Lie, something Elise Stefanik has had no problem doing. Tens of millions of americans are concerned that the 2020 election featured unconstitutional overreach by unelected State Officials and judges ignoring State Election laws. That was Ryan Nobles reporting from washington. Facebook is giving President Bidens predecessor another big thumbs down. The social Networks Oversight Board decided that facebook can keep blocking Donald Trump from using the platform. The board says trumps posts surrounding the Capitol Riot on January 6th severely violated facebooks policies and created a potentially violent environment. But the board did Scold Facebook for making the suspension indefinite and says it should either ban him for a specific amount of time or disable the account. The decision will be revisited in six months. It also applies to trumps account on instagram which facebook owns. The former president has almost 60 Million followers across both platforms. Despite the ongoing suspension, plenty of trumps Talking Points are still being posted. Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter has details on that and the facebook boards decision. Something of a surprise. Its kicking it right back to Mark Zuckerberg who has six months to come up with answers. This board is recommending that facebook be much more clear about its rules and regulations. What it takes to get banned from the platform. They say a permanent ban is inappropriate. They also, and this is important. They want facebook to have a real examination of how its platform was used and weaponized by the rioters. How its platform was used to spread the Big Lie. So far, facebooks not been very forthcoming about how its tools were used to spread these lies. Trumps grip on the party has not been weakened. Trumps own messages are not going as viral, may not be bringing in new fans. However, right wing narratives, antidemocrat narratives, protrump narratives do find a lot of support on facebook and thats critical to understand. Whenever you hear folks complaining about censorship, the allegations on fox every hour about conservative censorship, thats belied by the fact that these rightwing commentators are among the most popular figures on the platform.

Support for ukraine ahead of his sitdown with president vladimir zelensky. That came as Antony Blinken met with him in kiev. In his remarks, he said the u. S. Is committed to Ukraines Sovereignty and independence. The oneday visit comes as ukraine faces ongoing russian aggression and military buildup at the border. Before the Foreign Minister sat down with the u. S. Secretary of state, he talked to Cnns Matthew Chance in an exclusive interview. Ahead of the secretary of states visit, his ukrainian counterpart is putting his best fist forward. There are uncomfortable issues in the u. S. ukrainian relationship. Like the activities in ukraine of Rudy Giuliani, former President Trumps personal lawyer, ahead of the 2020 u. S. Election. Issues ukrainian officials would prefer nto ignore. Do you believe he may have engaged in Criminal Behavior . Well, im not a lawyer to make my judgment on the criminal nature of his behavior or how would you characterize it . He was definitely playing politics. And he put the situation at risk for ukraine. And for Ukraines Relationship with the United States. And we did our best to avoid that trap. And to maintain that bipartisan security with bipartisan support from the United States. Reporter but ukraine is again under withering scrutiny with the fbi investigating the former new York City mayor for his alleged actions regarding ukraine. Can you tell us, has the fbi or any other investigating agency in the United States approached ukraine for assistance with that investigation into Rudy Giuliani . Not to the best of my knowledge. Im not aware of any formal legal process that has been initiated recently. Reporter even if there was, ukraine has, for years, desperately avoided being drawn into the toxic u. S. Political battle. In fact, as the u. S. Secretary of state pays his first visit here, ukrainian officials want their own battle to be the focus. Especially with a russian armada assembling off their eastern seaboard. The kremlin insists it was a naval drill. Posing no threat. Cnn has learned ukraine has a Shopping List of weapons it wants from washington, including Air Defense systems and antisniper tech, crucial, say officials, with so many ukrainian troops being gunned down on these front lines. The question is, will Secretary Blinken and President Biden, who says he wants to find a stable path with russia, offering putin a summit later this year, risk inflaming Russia Ukraine Tension . In the Obama Administration when biden was the Vice President , they didnt even provide lethal weaponry to ukraine for fear of provoking russia. What do you think has changed . Has anything changed . My impression is that Obama Administration is about the past and Biden Administration is about today. And this administration is more committed and more resolved more resolute in containing russia. Reporter how far that u. S. Resolve extends in ukraine will soon be put to the test. Matthew chance, cnn, kiev. India is reporting its worst numbers since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.

You lapid has 28 days to show he can form the next government. But even if lapid is The One able to form the next government that doesnt necessarily mean hell actually be prime minister right away. In order to be able to form the Unity Government he says israel needs right now that will unite parties from the left to the right across the political spectrum, he will likely offer the first round of being prime minister to naftali bennett, the head of a small right Wing Party but only won seven seats in the last election in march.

For the first time ever, spacexs starship Mars Prototype has naileded its landing. The rocket launched from South Texas wednesday soaring straight up ten kilometers before descending safely on to a landing pad. Its the fifth spacecraft of its kind to attempt such a landing but the first to actually stick it. The earlier prototypes ended in disappointing and spectacular explosions during their landings. Starship is the Launch Vehicle Spacex Ceo Elon Musk hopes will carry the first human to mars one day. A massive piece of Space Junk is set to reenter earths atmosphere this weekend. Debris from a large chinese rocket is careening out of control, and the u. S. Says its tracking it. Space agencies Around The World try to avoid leaving big objects in orbit that could fall back to earth but not this particular rocket. Cnn Meteorologist Pedram joins me now. This thing isnt small. On the scale of yan to sprint to your bunker, how worried should we be about this . Im not sure about the level of concern. I dont think its that concerning but its impressive for its size and, of course, if it ends up over a place thats populated, it will be a much bigger story. Well break down what the possibility of such an event are. Theres some 9,000 tons of Space Junk orbit our planet. Equivalent to 700 School Buss there as far as the weight is concerned. Decommissioned satellites to portions of spent boosters that are orbiting our planet. Tools, put it together, the shells of all this equipment, its all out there. Every so often you get something thats a little bit larger. Even in the past weve had meteors approach our planet and theyre typically pretty small but come in at an Oblique Angle so the vast majority of whats in place is going to burn up in the pressure from the heat from our earths atmosphere. When it comes to satellites and things such as rockets, they come in as a far less far direct angle which allows for less of that to be burnt up, especially when its larger in size and when youre talking about one of this magnitude, largest and heaviest to reenter our atmosphere since 1991. And about 20 tons there. Its equivalent to about the weight of 15 sedans. So were talking about a largescale feature upon entry. When it comes to where this ends up, top five for the largest there upon entry and where tends up, the estimates at this point for the orbital path, pretty wide area of coverage from Los Angeles to new York City, south to mexico city, sao paulo, eastward to madrid and even farther to the east around beijing and on into sydney. All of these areas could be points of impact. Of course, over 70 of our planet is composed of water. So 3 out of 4 chance this ends up over the open waters. Traveling about 18,000 miles per hour. So thats why officials are saying youre not going to know exactly where this ends up until the final hours on approach some time saturday or sunday. Then well calculate where tends up. Just a small variation for an object orwitbiting our planet 1 times a day. We have another Rocket Piece that crashed into the Atlantic Ocean about a year ago. Went over at one point over Los Angeles. Another point over Central Park a few minutes later. Tended up being deposited into the Atlantic Ocean and its really important to note when you take something like this, about 10 of our planets surface, kim, is actually inhabited by humans. As far as Surface Area is concerned. This particular object, its not going to be one impact point as a lot of people believe it to be. Its going to be scattered about, kind of equivalent to a small Airplane Crash Debris field but scattered about an over 100mile distance of land or water. So its not one impact point but a wider area of impact. Kim . I noticed atlanta was in that radius that you showed there, so ill be casting a new nervous glances up to the heavens this weekend. Thanks so much for that. Meteorologist pedram javaheri. Even though its probably not appropriate to party like a Rock Star because of covid, of course, you can now at least drink like a queen. Queen Elizabeth Ii or rather her estate, has launched two types of beers. An indian pale ale and a bitter. They say the brews are now on sale at the gift shop. Cheers.
