Well show you that map in a moment. You can see if youre part of it. This guidance also says that everyone in k12 schools needs to mask up, again, whether theyre vaccinated or not as the new School Year begins. As dr. Fauci pointed out were not changing the science. The virus changed, and the science evolved with the changing virus. Tomorrow President Biden is expected to announce federal workers and federal contractors will either have to get vaccinated or submit to regular testing. Our John Harwood joins us now from outside the White House. Good morning to you. Talk about the administrations move here. Thats a big deal and also, obviously, a signal to the private sector. Reporter poppy, every single thing this administration, this president wants to accomplish as a matter of public health, as a matter of economics, politically as well, turns on getting this pandemic under control, and everyone at the White House is alarmed by this resurgence fueled by the Delta Variant, the fact that the efforts to vaccinate the country which we all know is the key to emerging from this nightmare have stalled because of Vaccine Resistance for various reasons among groups, in particular many republicans, conservatives, white evangelicals have been resistant. Theres a big political overlay there. Youve got to react to that situation, so following the science the cdc has offered this new Mask Guidance, and we expect to see the President Tomorrow Offer this mandate for federal workers to be vaccinated, and if they dont, they cant show their vaccination status, be subject to testing. The administration is very cautious about a heavily handed Government Approach of mandates. Theyve resisted federal mandates. They are in their role as an Employer Hope to model Behavior Weve seen from other employers, from universities, other companies trying to impress upon people the need to get vaccinated, and the combination of this guidance on masking. That effort, we did see a slight uptick in the rate of vaccination as people became more and more alarmed by the surge, especially in southern states. We have to see how much additional progress will result from this new guidance which also has the potential for provoking a political backlash from some who resisted vaccination in the first place. It already is. Look what mccarthy said, What Desantis is saying. I bet a lot of people out there dont know, and i certainly dont fully know, what can biden do . How far can the White House do on this . What do they have the power to federally mandated on this front . Reporter i think thats untested. The administration, we know they have a political constraint because they dont want to be heavy handed. In terms of what they can try to impose and whether they can make that stick in states that are resistant to it, i dont think thats fully been tested as a legal matter or a political matter. Well see how far they try to go on it. John, thanks pour the reporting at the White House. Let me bring in our chief medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay gupta. Good morning. Good morning. Very basic question for folks, and hopefully we can show them the map, where this may apply to them or may not. Im vaccinated. I live in new York City. Its yellowish, orangish on that map. Do i need to wear a mask . I think new York City is considered substantial spread with regard to viral transmission. That means 50 to 100 per 100,000 people new cases. I think it would apply. This is a little bit of a moving target. Its almost like checking the Weather Ref Reday to figure out if you need to take an umbrella. The mask is going to be sort of like your umbrella. Twothirds of the country following into this category of high or substantial spread. Those are the areas where the cdc say, even if youre vaccinated, you need to wear masks in indoor public spaces. The thing is, poppy, going into the drier weather, viruses tend to spread more. Youve got to keep an eye on your local area to find out whats happening there. Dr. Rochelle walensky, the Cdc Director earlier this morning told our John Berman that Mask Guidance changed, it was prompted by science, science that is only days old, but science that shows that vaccinated people experiencing these Breakthrough Infections of the Delta Variant can pass it on to others. Listen to what he said . With our Delta Variant, we see with the Outbreak Investigations over the last couple weeks, we have been seeing that, if you happen to have one of those Breakthrough Infections that you can actually now pass it to somebody else. What is your reaction to that guidance . Thats scary for me with unvaccinated little kids. Sure. I think thats important data to pay attention to. One thing i want to make clear, though, and i think just in terms of clearly stating what the problem is, the problem is that unvaccinated people are spreading this virus to unvaccinated people. Thats the primary problem still. You put up that map that we just showed, most of those areas that are red and orange are places where you dont have high vaccinations. I want to state this at the outset, poppy, because that is the fundamental problem, and we got so close in this country to reducing the amount of viral spread overall in the country to a containable level. We would have gotten there if more people had been vaccinated, but we didnt. Now the problem is sort of worsening. But its primarily unvaccinated to unvaccinated. Having said that, poppy, the new data that dr. Walensky is talking about is now this data that shows, if you are a vaccinated person who develops one of these Breakthrough Infections, you seem to be carrying the same viral load in your Nose And Mouth as an unvaccinated infect person. The vaccinated person not likely to get sick. Those are obviously far fewer, these Breakthrough Infections, but they could potentially be a source of spread. If youre vaccinated, hanging out with people where theres a lot of viral transmission, thats where theyre saying you should wear a mask in public indoor spaces. We also just got data from pfizer this morning showing in their internal studies that a third dose of their covid vaccine strongly boosts protection against the Delta Variant by like fivefold. I asked the u. S. Sur general general vooif vek murthy, asking if people should be running out to get a shot. Lets get your thoughts on the other side. This data from pfizer, weve been in talks with them with regard to what theyre seeing with their studies with regard to boosters. I want to be clear, at this point people do not need to go out and get a booster shot. No third booster for people, right . Still . I think still, right. Maybe some people who did not get a good response from the first two shots, maybe people with weakened Immune Systems and their system didnt produce enough antibodies. One question is how long does the immunity last . If you get a huge spike in antibodies, that may be great. If it wears off fquickly, that not solving the problem. Even in the face of this clarnt, thats the sort of first thing. But the second thing is, antibodies are important. What i really want to sort of understand, are people becoming getting severely ill requiring Hospitalization And Death after being vaccinated. If you see those numbers start to go up, then it would make the case that we need to do more boosters. Protection is complicated with immunity. Antibodies are part of it, but theres lots of other parts of the Immune System as well. So right now, again, the good news is the vaccines seem to work well. There may be a small percentage of people who need boosters. I dont think the evidence is clear right now. Im not going to run out and get one. Right. Then theres the whole other question of, well, theres developing countries where they have none, and were talking about a third here. Dr. Sanjay gupta, thank you very much. The state of louisiana reported nearly 6,800 new Covid Cases on tuesday. That is just 85 cases short of that states oneday record for infections in january. Look at that spike. Look at the progress thats been lost. Hospitalizations on the rise across the state. Less than 37 of the States Population is fully vaccinated. Joining me now to discuss is dr. Tony jaginow from Our Lady Of The Lake Regional Medical Center in baton rouge. Thank you for your time. Good morning. Happy to be here, to be able to get the message out to folks to try to get this back under control. I know you said what youre seeing makes you want to scream, right, thats how bad it is. We are in a discussion with a reporter referencing a politico article, and its one of those where we have a solution to a problem that is inundating our Health Care System and were not taking advantage of it. It is frustrating for physicians to know that we could have a fix for this, but were having difficulty getting that message across to folks who are resistant to the vaccine. Given this resistance, especially in your state that has been pervasive to vaccination for many, given what the cdc just said overnight in terms of their Mask Guidance, what do you think would be most beneficial to the health of people in louisiana . Statewide Mask Mandate . Well, i think people are adverse to the term mandate, whether you say its a mask or vaccine. Our message i work inside the hospital, and its a scenario that i dont think people get to see because we protect Patients Privacy obviously. Were at full capacity for everything, and weve had to stop doing elective surgeries that put people in the hospital overnight because we dont have Room Due to the rapid, essentially doubling almost every week since june, of cases. So what that means is people in interpret vaccination as i dont think im going to get sick personally, i dont need it. Your community is impacted in such a way that, if you have to go to the hospital for anything else, we may be at a shortage of giving you the Standard Of Care you expect, and your community is now back in lockdown, back in Pandemic Mode. I think the message needs to be, the vaccine is about the people you care about not getting infected. We know some people have Breakthrough Infections, and those are rather cases. Most of the people, id say 90 or greater at all of our hospitals in our community are unvaccinated. Theyre consuming our Health Care resources, and we have our teams there on the Front Line that are exhausted, theyre burned out, and were looking at just is fourth phase where we just cant wrap our arms around it. Theres a simple solution. It is so significant what you just said. You just said we as a Hospital System are tapped out, and if you come here with a need for care not just for covid, for something else, we may not be able to provide you the Standard Of Care. Thats startling in an age where theres more than enough vaccine. Right. I think people dont have an image of what was hang in india where there was essentially no oxygen for people, and they were dying outside the hospital. We protect that because we have essentially a phenomenal workforce and infrastructure. But we have had situations where weve had to do some diverting and construction because of the demand of need for oxygen. These people come in and the care that we have to provide is very individualized and very intense. That had been a thought for us torques have a problem with Oxygen Flow to our icus because weve never seen numbers like this before. So it kind of puts you in a perspective of, were at the edge of a crisis where, if we push any further, we will not be able to deliver the care that we would want for our loved ones, that we know they should get because we dont have the resource to do that. Thats not visible to the folks that are saying no vaccination for me, a personal choice. I agree with that, but its a community impact. It also can come back to you, not in the way of covid infection, but in the way of staying in Pandemic Mode and crisis mode. So everyone needs to hear your message. We will post what you just said so more people can hear it, doctor. Thank you for your urgent call for action and for what you and your team are doing every day in the hospital there. Thank you. And i want to say thanks to all our Team Members out there who are working hard every day to keep people safe and healthy. Our thanks to them as well. Thank you.

This comes after an emotional day of testimony at the committees first public hearing, Police Officers at the Capitol Recounting the horrific violence they faced defending it. Joining me is democratic Congressman Pete aguillar, a member of the select committee investigating the insurrection. Congressman, thank you for your time this morning. Thanks for having me, poppy. Lets start with the subpoenas, Bennie Thompson, Congresswoman Cheney explained why they want to do it, gets things done a lot more quickly. My question to you then is when should we expect the first round of subpoenas to go out and can you give us some insight into who theyll be going to . Ill let the chairman speak for our plan and our agenda, the members will likely be hunding soon to talk about that. The chairman has been very clear this is something thats going to happen. Were going to be guided by The Truth. First well continue to review the testimony of the four officers, as you mentioned, incredibly compelling and emotional testimony. They laid the groundwork and told us exactly what they wanted us to focus on, and that was on Justice And Accountability. They did. Lets let people who may not have seen the whole hearing, listen to that part specifically, what some of those officers asked of you guys. Here they were. Need you guys to address if anyone in power had a role in this, if anyone in power coordinated, aided or abetted or tried to downplay, tried to prevent the investigation of this Terrorist Attack because we cant do it. It was an attack carried out on January 6th, and a Hit Man sent them. I want you to get to the bottom of that. Who do you believe, congressman, you need to hear from, to hear testify to at least help answer those questions . Im not asking who youre going to subpoena. Im asking who you believe, since youre a part of the committee, you want to ask questions of to answer those questions for those officers. Well, its important that we seek out and find that Justice And Accountability that they wanted us to. I think well hear from a variety of witnesses. Theres been public testimony from a number of Law Enforcement individuals, including the sergeant at arms for both chambers, the capitol police chief. Those are all important components on what led up to January 6th and why we werent prepared enough. But from the election until January 6th, theres a lot of unanswered questions. I think Congresswoman Cheney spoke for the group when she said, herself, that we need to find out exactly who knew what at the White House and what that Communication And Coordination looked like. So Theres Plenty of questions that we need to get to the bottom of, and the committee is going to seek to find The Truth throughout all this. Do you believe former President Trump is an important person for you to be able to ask questions of to answer at least part of their questions . Im not going to get ahead of where were going to go i understand that, but im asking you, since youre part of the committee. You just brought up the White House. Theres a lot of unanswered questions. Its our responsibility, our charge and our mandate within the resolution that we passed to get to the bottom of it. Individuals who have information pertaining to January 6th, our response, our lack of a response, those are questions that we need answered on behalf of the officers that protect this place, those who sacrificed on January 6th and The American public who deserve to know The Truth. Let me get your response to this from republican congressman Kelly Armstrong. This is earlier this week in an interview with our jake tapper. He was appointed to the Committee By Mccarthy and then ultimately pulled after pelosi rejected some of the appointees. Let me ask you to listen to what is a concern of his regarding the committee. When you serve on the committee at the call of the speaker, and minority members arent allowed to put their own members on the committee, you completely make this thing partisan and move it in a way that im telling you 50 of the country is not going to take anything going on with it with any credibility whatsoever. Im not asking you about his opinion on the committee makeup. Im interested in his assertion that half the Country Isnt going to believe what you guys come up with. Lets be clear. We would have welcomed the seating of Kelly Armstrong to this committee. I agree that a bipartisan commission that was our objective, that was our focus. Guess what . Kevin mccarthy and Mitch Mcconnell asked their caucuses in conference to do them a favor. Mitch mcconnell asked his colleagues to do a personal Favor And Vote against a bipartisan 9 11style Commission Composition that would have been outside individuals. So this is what we are left with. The Minority Lieder has tchosen to take his ball and go home. That includes pulling the nominations of Kelly Armstrong and other colleagues who i think would have been value added to the commission. Well move forward with what we have and well carry on the duties. Well be guided by The Truth and make sure our efforts are not just bipartisan with democrats and republicans, but not partisan. Thats what the public expects. I think thats what the country wants to see. Congressman pete aguilar, thank you for your time. Thank you.

The fourtime olympic champion, for now, has dropped out of the allaround final saying her Mental Health is what she needs to focus on right now. Still, she could compete in individual events next week. Its not clear if she will. Her teammates and other athletes around the world are showing immense support for her. Coy wire joining us from tokyo. Coy, you played in the nfl, and you know the importance of Mental Health on an athlete, on humans. When you were playing, people couldnt talk there wasnt this much support at all for speaking out publicly about Mental Health. What is it like to see this right now at play, Simone Biles and beyond. Reporter Simone Biles talked about feeling the weight of the world on her shoulders. I can relate a bit from my playing days when, poppy, the lights came on and stakes were high. Ive seen nfl players cry after losses when they felt like it was their fault they lost the game. The mantra is pick your head up, next Snap Move on. Now were seeing a shift from some of the biggest sports stars, in Simone Biles and naomi osaka, before the Pressure Cooker situations, removing themselves from it, saying im not feeling okay. Protecting their mentals, as simone called them. Seventime olympic Gold Medalist Shannon Miller spoke to cnn this morning saying gymnasts can face dangerous consequences if theyre not in a good mental space. Listen. It looks like were dealing with something here that gymnast happen upon fairly often. Any young gymnast will tell you they have come to mental blocks. It could be you suddenly not wanting to go backward on a skill, starting not to want Let Go of the bar on a release move, moving your spot in the air. That comes back to the importance of knowing your body and knowing where you need to kind of draw that Line And Step away. Reporter Simone Biles, were seeing good signs here in tokyo today. Just a bit ago, poppy, she was at the mens individual allaround final, cheering on team usa. Seems to be a step in the right direction mentally.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has just called Minority Leader Kevin Mccarthy a, quote, moron. This is after shes responding to Mccarthys Criticism of reinstating the Mask Mandate in the house. Lets get to manu raju. Yes, this is about a backandforth between them, but a lot more than just about words. This is about Safety And Health and where we are with covid. Reporter and it is certainly about tension between the two most powerful people in the house, the speaker of the house, the republican leader, who have seen their relationship devolve over the last six months in the aftermath of January 6th, and really before then, but even worse as mccarthy has aligned himself with republicans on this, has battled Pelosis Effort to investigate what happened here. Youre seeing this war of words reach new levels. Pelosi just moments ago said, quote, hes such a moron, about Kevin Mccarthy after mccarthy sent in a statement last night the threat of bringing back masks is not a decision based on science but a decision conjured by liberal Government Officials who want to continue to live in a perpetual pandemic state. When she was asked about those comments moments ago, he did call him a moron, its hard to hear. Take a listen to her response. Reporter again, she said hes such a moron. Those are the exact quotes from the reporters around there. Its a bit hard to hear. Regardless, people may dismiss it as a petty backandforth, but pretty striking comments. You dont hear that level of personal insult being leveled from one side to the other unless that person believes it rises to that occasion. Hear you have the speaker of the house making this call about the republican leader in the aftermath of his pushing back on the Mask Mandates in the house, and the Mask Mandates are coming back. Theyre required to be in the house, to wear them on the floor of the house. If members are not wearing them, theyre subjected to a fine. Were already hearing reports of tension between House Republicans and democrats on this issue. Adding one thing after another, just a polarized environment in that chamber at the moment. In the aftermath of January 6th, add the pandemic and youre hearing the word of words between the two leaders escalate. Such a sad reality, manu. Thank you very much for your reporting on that. Covid cases are speaking everywhere. They are speaking in maryland as well, up more than 42 over the last week. Listen to this. The city of baltimore is seeing a 151 increase in new Covid Cases over the last month, this as a little under 47 of the total city is fully vaccinated. My next guest says, quote, its becoming increasingly obvious that getting vaccinated is the difference between life and death. That coming from baltimore mayor brandon scott. Good morning, mayor scott, and thank you. Good morning. Thanks for having me. 151 . As you sit here as mayor, knowing it didnt have to be this way, what is your next step for the city of baltimore . Well, i think its to continue our efforts. For those who are unvaccinated in baltimore or otherwise, if youre looking for a sign to talk to your doctor, delta is that sign. If youre unvaccinated. I implore you to take the steps to get the questions you need answered now before its too late. Contracting the disease itself is far worse than a temporary side effect. You dont want to be on that Hospital Bed as some covid patients have saying, can i still get the vaccine. Dont wait until its that late. Were going to continue, as we have been, going directly into our Zip Codes that have the lowest vaccination rate, using our credible messenger, our partners, taking our mobile vaccinations to those communities so were having an impact where were most needed. This is about keeping people alive. We also have an increase over the last four months of Positivity Rate of 95 , and 100 of fatalities from covid in the month of june were from unvaccinated residents. Women lie, men lie. Numbers dont. What does this mean for your schools . As i understand it, you already have a Mask Mandate in your schools. Do you believe this could mean yet another return, at least to partial remote learning for kids starting in the fall . Well, we know our School System which is actually a separate entity from City Government is going to have a Mask Mandate. We know theyre pushing for our young people to go back to school, there will be a virtual option, but it wont be a hybrid. What im worried about with the Delta Variant is how its going to impact, not just our young Peoples Ability to go and learn in person which we know we absolutely have to have them do but in a safe way, but for all these Folks Clamoring for us to return to normal, return to the things we love and theyre not vaccinated. You cant continue to have folks to think were going to back to normal first. Were never going back to what we knew exactly because the normal didnt work for far too many in our city, in our state and in our country. But also, be responsible. The misinformation about the vaccine thats being driven by folks, elected officials whose responsibility is supposed to give our residents the best information possible, who are driving a wedge, saying that the vaccine and that the pandemic is really made up, are being so irresponsible, they have to have Soul Searching in my opinion. We know that getting the vaccine keeps people alive. Thats the number one duty of any branch of government. Yeah, for sure. When i mentioned that 46. 6 of baltimore is fully vaccinated, it doesnt really tell the whole story, because you have pockets where the numbers are much more troubling than that. There are certain parts of the city where 70percentplus of folks arent vaccinated. You guys have people reaching out, going to homes where people are housebound and cant get out to get vaccinated. I guess my question is, what more can you do at this point, especially for those pockets . Yeah, we know our Zip Codes like 21213 have more than 70 of residents that havent been vaccinated. Were going to continue to double down our efforts. We go Door To door. Members of my office personally canvass goes out and knocks on doors. Were working with colleges, artists, musicians, everybody we can, advertise on our local radio stations, using every credible messenger to go where people arent vaccinated to get them vaccinated. Were going to continue to do that and continue to break through. We see the breakthroughs happening time and time again. We also need people to be responsible. When you think of the amount of people that have died in my city alone from covid, who didnt have to die, but got it because someone younger in the family didnt get the vaccine and was being irresponsible about them and now theyve lost a parent or grandparent. Thats what we should be caring about, keeping our friends and family, everyone we know, safe from this deadly virus. Baltimore mayor brandon scott, thank you. Really good luck to you and your teams doing that. I hope it improves. Thank you. Next, new rules out for americans who want to travel to the uk.
