Withholding federal finding from states as a way to increase shots in arms. If the plan is adopted, funding for Nursing Homes and similar facilities could be leveraged unless employees are vaccinated. Phil mattingly has more from the White House. Reporter there is is no question the surge in the Delta Variant has translated in to a significant shift in terms of how the biden administration is approaching policy as it relates to vaccinations. Administration officials are clear vaccinations are the answer out of what were seeing right now across the country. And it now appears that they are at least having discussions about going even further than they had ever considered before. And in that phase it would be using federal regulatory powers, perhaps even redistricting federal funds to convince people or almost force people to get vaccinated. There are limits to what you can utilize in a situation like that. It is not clear the administration is going to go through with this proposal, they are just high level discussions at this point in time. But the fact that the discussions are happening at all just underscores, one, how serious a moment the administration believes this is, how urgent it is, and also underscores that the administration is very serious about the policy shift. You saw the change on the federal level as related to requirements for vaccines for federal workers, you have seen them work with private industry trying to compel in any way they possibly can private companies to impose Vaccine Man at a titimes mandates, something that the president can use his bully pulpit. And now they are considering federal regulations, federal funding, as a way to try to spur vaccinations. How they get people do that, that appears to be the primary issue they are still exploring at the moment. Phil mattingly, thank you. We are failing one another, that is a heartfelt Banner Headline on the front page of usa Todays Weekend Edition which comes out today. And that message may finally be getting through. Take a look here, more shots in Arms Yesterday than any day since july 3. More americans are getting vaccinated as mandates and states ramp up, kids are heading back to school and more families suffer heartbreak like 43yearold Travis Campbell who thought that he was invincible and now Cant Help but think about plans for his own funeral. Try being ting to get the me out, please, please dont wait. Dont procrastinate. The Delta Variant is stronger and faster and it attacks those who are not vaccinated or have more medical conditions. You can be attacked ten times faster and harder. And it is not worth it. Travis campbell will be on New Day at the top of the 8 00 hour. Schools in minneapolis, nashville and New Jersey now in the growing list of districts to require masks as Cnn Analysis shows some states that abandoned Mask Mandates in schools like oklahoma, South Carolina and arkansas also have the fewest teens vaccinated. Education secretary says we have the tools to keep schools open if only we would use them. What im worried about, the adult actions getting in the way of schools safely reopen. Let our educators educate, let our School Leaders lead and we can get our schools reopened safely. Some states still wont allow schools to actually require kids to wear masks, like florida where Governor Desantis is facing growing push back to threatening to cut funding to schools that require masks. But desantis is not backing down. Leyla santiago has more. Reporter florida now leading the nation when it comes to hospitalizations and the Florida Hospital association now warning that many hospitals will see critical Staffing Shortages very soon. So were seeing many additional measures being taken. Where i am right now at jackson health system, they have just announced that they will be mandating vaccines of workers. Miamidade mayor also announcing that she will be requiring weekly testing of someone who cannot provide proof of vaccination. In the meantime, governor Ron Desantis doubling down saying that florida will not be a state of map datmandates or lockdowns. It is parents choice. We believe they are the ones with the choice. Reporter and the governor is standing by his Executive Order which threatens to cut State Funds to any school that mandates masks. Leon County Superintendent has written him a letter asking him to, quote, not allow pride or politics to cloud our better judgment. Leyla santiago, thank you. President biden spent the week begging leaders including in florida to contain covid, Drawing Fire from Governor Desantis. Here is mr. Bidens reaction to that.

The Dixie Fire, californias largest active wildfire, prompting more evacuations. The fire destroyed nearly 75 of the historic town of greenville in northern california. Officials ordered the nearby town of taylorsville to Vak Ei evacuate. Firefighters say they are frustrated with the residents not heeding the orders. Dixie fire is now the 6th largest in californias history, six of the top seven happening in just the past year. The drought is worsening the fires. On t on Thursday Officials had to shut down a liehigh trydro powe. Attempted Coup Hiding in plain sight. New details of the Ledges T lengths the former president went to overturn the election he lost. House investigators have found that trump pressured Justice Department officials like Jeffrey Rosen to just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the republican congressmen. A day later another Justice Official Jeffrey Clark drafted a memo aimed at pressuring Election Officials in georgia that suggested falsely that do skrchlt was doj was investigating. Thankfully hire ups rejected Clarks Letter and all this was before trump made this call to Georgias Secretary of state. So look, all i want to do is this, i just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. With all of this evidence coming together and trump still the De Facto leader of the gop, democrats are centralizing their investigations. More now from Evan Perez in washington. Reporter House Democrats are consolidating the investigations into the former president s efforts to pressure federal and state officials into overturning last Novembers Election results. And all the events that led up to the January 6 capitol taesk. T attack. The House Select Committee is taking the lead and other committees are turning over their documents and their work done so far. That means that interviews of key former trump Administration Officials which were scheduled in the coming days will be postponed and handled by the new January 6 committee. Sources say that that includes former top Justice Department officials Jeffrey Rosen and richard donahue. The change of strategy came abruptly just a couple days after the House Oversight Committee conducted an interview with another former Justice Official who wrote a Draft Resignation Letter accusing the former president of trying to use the Justice Department to advance his Election Fraud claims. He was prepared to resign if trump fired rosen over Hiss Fuse al to say that there was fraud. The letter was never september because rosen held on until joe bidens inauguration. And President Biden awarding congressional Gold Medals to Law Enforcement officers who defended the u. S. Capitol against the pro Trump Mob on January 6th. The president thanked officers for protecting the Constitution And Election officials themselves. 21 house republicans voted against awarding those medals as Insurrection Denialism permeates the gop. Not even during the Civil War did insurrectionists breach the capitol of the United States of america. My fellow americans, the tragedy that day deserves the truth above all else. We cannot allow history to be rewritten. We cannot allow the heroism of these officers to be forgotten. We have to understand what happened. The honest and unvarnished truth. We have to face it. America owes you a debt we can never fully repay. Four officers who responded to that vicious attack have died by suicide since january.

Calls for pregnant women to get vaccinated growing louder this morning. One recent Cdc Study in the u. S. Found only 11 of pregnant women are fully vaccinated. And data from england shows that 98 of expect tant mothers admitted to the hospital with covid since may were unvaccinated. This despite nearly all major physician groups and the w. H. O. Urging women to get the vaccine. Salma abdelaziz is joining us live from london. Good morning. You spoke to some expectant moms. Reporter and when the vaccines were first rolled out, pregnant people were told not to take them because they were not a part of the initial Vaccine Trials so Doctors Couldnt recommend that. Sense that time, advice has of course changed 180 degrees new with multiple groups urging women to get the vaccine. And there is that very real threat out there iof the Delta Variant. If a pregnant woman Contracts Covid19 here in england, she has a one in seven chance of ending up this icu and even more worryingly a one in five chance of preterm labor. Of course in that scenario, emergency csections are extremely likely. Still pregnant women told me it is really difficult to get clear guidance from your Doctor And Health officials, tough to make an informed decision. Take a look. Ready . So that tummy has got to come in. Pregnancy in the time of pandemic comes with a big question, whether or not to get vaccinated. Staying up at night and researching, it became slightly like an obsession. Youre being told not to have it and the next minute to have it. It was a bit confusing. Reporter guidance keeps changing. British officials first advised expectant mothers against vaccination but since july strongly urge it. In the u. S. The cdc does not directly recommend it for pregnant people but say that they are eligible. While to leading obstetric groups say expect tant mothers should be immunized, unable to find clearances, Christine Kaufman decided not to get vaccinated. I was definitely worried about it being so new and us not having a lot of research on it. Reporter one week before her due date, she tested positive for covid19. At that time i thought that i was going to die. It was terrifying knowing i had this infection coursing through my body. Reporter as Mom And Baby do the sicker, doctors performed an emergency csection. They took her to the nicu and i didnt see my baby for two days because i had covid. Reporter both are now back home happy and healthy. I just really want my story to be advice if you are thinking about getting the vaccine, get it. Reporter 98 of expectant mothers admitted to hospital with covid19 This England since may were unvaccinated. The balance is very much this favor of the benefits of vaccination versus the risks of the infection. Reporter initial Vaccine Trials did not include pregnant women. But experts point to the nearly 200,000 pregnant people now safely vaccinated across the u. S. And uk. Back in the park, we ask if the real World Evidence is enough. Raise your hand if youve gotten the vaccine. For me there is not enough data there personally from what ive researched to make me feel comfortable getting it. I just felt more comfortable knowing that i had some protection than no protection at all. Reporter a majority of pregnant people in the u. S. And uk remain unvaccinated with many still waiting for answers. You can see how each and every one of those women really struggled with that decision. They all told me they received conflicting advice from their doctors, contradictory information online. Take the case of Christine Kaufman in that story, she said im a scientist by profession, i believe in the stuff, but i simply couldnt get answers. That is how she ended up with covid19 in hospital a week before her due date. It is absolutely concerning to all of these parents that there is no clear died Guidance Or Ad from health officials. And there is this very real threat out there, the Delta Variant, putting pregnant people at risk more than ever before. And you see that risk so clearly with the whom who got it just a week before she was due. Conflicting information is hard, but the data is clear on what happens to you if you do get covid and it is not pretty. Thank you so much for that reporting.

One of todays most urgent questions, how do you get hesitant people to finally get covid vaccinations. Here is what top Strategist And Polster Frank Luntz says. You have to keep the politics out of this. I know that the temptation particularly in the people who do the job that you do is to beat on those who arent vaccinated, to hold them accountable, responsible for what is happening in the spread of the virus. The problem is if you demonize them, if you insult them, they will surely not listen to you and they will not be educated by you. Frankly, they feel pressured rather than educated. And so we have to use language and statistics and facts that will bring them in. Okay. Lets do some education right now. The average number of people getting vaccinated for the first time hasnt been this high since mid june. But hospitalizations are also high. Now over 60,000 americans almost q quadrupled in a month. And an 11 month old girl from houston had to be air lifted 150 miles away because of a lack of Bed Space in pediatric hospitals. The Emergency Rooms at our major childrens hospitals here in houston, home of the largest medical center in the world, are extremely crowded. They are filling if not full. The surge in the Delta Variant now delaying return to office for many companies. Wells Fargo And Blackrock both giving it another month. Amazon bumped it back to 2022. Cnn also pushed its Return Back by a month and fired three employees who were coming to the office unvaccinated violating company policy. On Thursday California became the first state to mandate all Health Care workers to be fully vaccinated. Hawaii, virginia and maryland now joining the list of states with some sort of Vaccination Mandate for state employees. Places where we have vulnerable populations that are exposed and we have some workers, most of our State Workers have done the right thing and gotten vaccinated, but in some of those places we want to make sure that those folks that are on the front lines who have the ability to impact and infect folks that they make sure to go ahead and get vaccinated. Meantime the fda could lay out a national strategy for Booster Shots in a few weeks, this despite pleas from the World Health Organization for a Booster Moratorium in order to get vaccines where they are needed so desperately right now. Still many people are in need of their first shots before it is too late. People like randy from tennessee, a one time Covid Denier who says bad information on Social Media almost killed him. Do not listen to facebook, do not listen to some of the Media Outlets and different things because there are so many different things said. Go to your doctor, listen to what your doctor says. If your doctor tells you to take it, there is a reason for taking it. One of my little boys said something to me last night, he says im ready for my strong daddy to be back. It is a lifechanging process. Be smart. Do not put your family and other people through unnecessary heartache. It is just not worth it. Wise words there. The south Dakota City of sturgess will provide free Test Kits during its huge motorcycle rally. More than 700,000 people could attend and they have 500 covid Test Kits. But they say that they could get more if needed. The White House says escalating attacks from iran are, quote, issues of concern. That is putting it mildly. The State Department says iran is responsible for two recent incidents, boarding of a Panama Flag off the coast and a deadly Drone Attack on a tanker managed by israel in the arabian spae. Thursday israels Defense Minister warned iran that israel is prepared to strike. Cnn has this covered starting with hadas gold. Reporter and the iran backed Group Hezbollah is taking responsibility for at least ten rockets fired from lebanon into thorn israel. Israeli military saying most were intercepted by the Iron Dome Missile defense system. But we think this is about the first time in two years that hezbollah is taking responsibility for such Rocket Attacks. There have been other rocket launches, but those were largely attributed to the faction groups. And they are responding by striking where the strikes were launched from. Yesterday the israeli Defense Minister was asked directly, is israel ready to militarily strike iran and he responded with a simple one word answer, yes. Now when he was pressed further on whether there will be Military Action immediately, he sort of hedged a little bit saying that iran is proving to be not just an israeli problem referring of course to the incident on the Mercer Ship that killed a british and romanian crew member, saying that other countries and israel need to balance their strategic and diplomatic activity. And we heard similar rhetoric from benjamin netanyahu. But this is of course coming at an incredibly sensitive time. A new president in iran, relatively new government here in israel, of course the talks are on the iran nuclear deal, that may be on hold. And the recent incidents at sea and of course the Rocket Attacks from earlier this morning from lebanon into southern israel by hezbollah showing that were in a very volatile and sensitive situation at this moment. Thank you for bringing us up to speed there. And lets get perspective now from tehran and that is where Frederik Pleitgen is standing by. As we heard there, there is a new claim of responsibility from hazardous and foreign sect saying iran is at a Cross Roads in international relations. What is the perspective from there . Reporter iranians are hearing all the things that are being said there by the israelis and brits. And rairanians are saying if Th Israelis did Act Militarily against iran, that irans Answer Answer would be military as well. And in fact the head of irans very powerful revolutionary guard corps, he was in that region where some of the incidents have been taking place and he was inspecting the iranian troops. Of course iran does not only have very powerful naval forces, but also Missile And Air defense systems. And he said that they were all fully combat ready. And that is when the head of the irgc said if there was action from israel, the answer from iran would not be diplomatic but would be military. And of course also those comments made by the israeli Defense Minister, iranians hearing those comments as well and they reacted to that and they were issuing an angry response to those comments. I want to read you what the spokesman for irans foreign Men Industry had to ministry said. He said another brazen violation of international law blatantly threatening with Military Action, stems from Blind Western Support and we state that any foolish act against iran will be met with a decisive response, dont test us. Now, as hadas was saying, of course all of this is as a new administration has taken power here in iran, hardline president ebrahim raisi. And one of the first things he said is that iran will continue to be very active here in this region both diplomatically but of course militarily as well. Frederik pleitgen, thank you. Now to this, just a short time ago the ioc taking action against officials from belarus after a sprinter said that they tried to force her on to a Plane Home in the middle of the Olympic Games. Blake essig is live in tokyo for us. Who are these guys and what is the ioc doing about this . Reporter in a tweet earlier today the ioc announced that it has stripped the accreditations of two coaches for their role in the forced removal of krystsina tsimanouskaya. It happened when the sprinter was supposed to be preparing to make her olympic debut the following day. Instead the 24yearold posted a video to Social Media pleading for help, she said that she was removed from competition given one hour to pack her things in order to fly back to minsk immediately. This is after she criticized coaches a few days earlier on Social Media for being included on a list to run an event which she hasnt prepared for. While at the airport the sprinter asked the japanese police for protection and has since been flown to poland and offered humanitarian visa. She did that because she fears if she returned to bella rurks s belarus, she had likely be arrested. Her grandmother had told her not to return because it is not safe for you. The imen mentioc has set up a c to look into the incident. The coaches will have an opportunity to tell their side of the story. But in the meantime the ioc says the Coaches Accreditation has been stripped and they have been removed to the Olympic Village and will return to the minsk.
