Still on the subject, peter, theres a new poll having to do with the president s health and how hes been communicating about it . The majority of americans, 52 , say they do not trust what President Trump has said about his own health since testing positive for covid earlier this month. Thats according to the latest nbc news survey online poll.

More than 26 Million People have already voted either in person or by mail, an increase of more than 300 compared to this time four years ago. Early voting is popular here in florida. In some cases the wait to cast a ballot has been more than three hours. I just thought let me go and be one of the first people to vote and be able to celebrate that. If the line is this long now, i can only imagine what its going to get to as the election gets closer. Reporter with an almost even split in florida between registered republicans and democrats, its 29 electoral votes are still very much in play. Both the trump and biden campaigns expect a close race in florida, even with democrats outpacing plans when it comes to mailin ballots so far. Its a reason to be excited but not overconfident. Remember, democrats saw this reality four years ago, we didnt like the ending. Reporter in georgia theyre trying to avoid the voting line disasters that happened during the june primary. More than 1. 5 Million People have already voted there. You, the voter, are turning out in record numbers.

Supreme court ruling that in that state mailin ballots that arrive up to three days after election day will still be counted. Democrats believe that could be a key to victory. Hoda . All right, kerry in miami for us, thank you. Ten minutes after the hour. Lets get to craig who joins us with the latest on the spike in coronavirus cases weve been seeing. Good morning to you as well. Many states have already weathered two surges and now, now theres growing concern that some are currently heading into a third. New numbers this morning prompting stern warnings from experts and startling predictions about where we could be heading. Nbcs tom costello has the story for us. Good morning to you. Reporter good morning. Absolutely, were seven to eight months into this pandemic and a lot of people have pandemic fatigue and frustration, but experts are warning this is not the time to let our guard down. The situation is growing quite dire. Some states are now putting out an all call for other states to respond with icu doctors and nurses. The number of new infections has risen to nearly 70,000 per day, the highest rate since late july. Were in a really dangerous point, and unfortunately were here partly because of our own making. Reporter nationwide, millions of americans are suffering from pandemic fatigue, tired of masks, social distancing, homeschooling and working from home. Still, with colder months and flu season fast approaching, top doctors predict the worst could be yet to come. The stats are alarming. In 38 states and washington, d. C. , cases are climbing, with nearly half seeing infections increase by at least 50 . Fargo, north dakota, implementing the states first mask mandate. In the last month our active cases have more than doubled, our hospitalizations are higher now for half the month of october than the entire month of september. Reporter also concerning, covid hospitalizations are at their peak in at least 14 states. California, texas and florida all inching closer to 1 million cases, while cases are spiking in vermont and new mexico. New front line er and icus are once again understaffed. Doctors, nurses and paramedics exhausted. From michigan they are significantly more sick than the ones we saw in the beginning of the pandemic. Reporter to utah the hours are long and the work is not easy, and so to do that for a sustained period of time is really a challenge. Reporter in wisconsin, hospitals are near the brink. Without enough icu beds and staff, south dakota hospitals are pleading for help from other states. University of washington icu doctor vin gupta fears what could come, a u. S. Death toll hitting 500,000 by february 1st. That would be more than the number of americans killed in world war ii. If were seeing more of a relaxation towards normalization of life prematurely, more people will die. Reporter so, tom, these dire warnings, these startling predictions, more officials across the country are now considering implementing some new restrictions, i understand. What are they considering . Reporter right now, there really is not a National Call for a national lockdown, even dr. Fauci says he would not advocate for that right now. Wisconsin is limiting the number of people who can be inside together, chicago may take action as well. But the bottom line, the cdc says wear a mask, especially in public areas. Public transportation areas especially, that can really protect you and others. But this number that we cited, the potential for half a million dead by february 1st, just a Staggering Number and it really underscores that this is very much a National Emergency that were in the middle of. Guys, back to you. Yeah, it is. Tom costello, thank you, thanks for that. Hoda, over to you guys. It is now 7 14. What do you say we check out the weather with mr. Roker .

Weve got a Fascinating Development to tell you about that comes for the search against solutions for covid19 nbcs medical correspondent Richard Engel joins us from london good morning. Reporter good morning, savannah we all need a breakthrough and this morning here in london, scientists announced their plans to start challenge trials, that is intentionally infecting volunteers with the coronavirus in order to speed up development of a vaccine and treatment at this hospital in london, scientists are now preparing a secure facility where they plan to deliberately infect volunteers with the coronavirus. The volunteers are used to test the effectiveness of vaccines and treatments its a much faster way of working than the trials happening across the world now y under the current approach, volunteers live at home. Their lives continuing as normal, which means they may or may never become infected. With the socalled challenge trial, infection is guaranteed the first step is a small, but critical one 90 Healthy Volunteers, 18 to 30 yoors o years old, are given tiny amounts by nose of the coronavirus. The goal is to determine the absolute minimum amount required to get them sick enough to test if vaccines or treatments are effective, but not make them too sick as to put their lives in danger once the tests are done, the volunteers would have to fully recover in isolation before going back into the public but not all virologists support the plan because of the ethical dilemma of infecting Healthy People without having a recovery drug on hand. Im not a supporter of challenge trials at the moment, because what do they do . They inject Healthy Volunteers with a virus for which we have no cure. At the moment were putting people at risk that, you know, i think we could have some really nasty problems so richard, what are the next steps then in these trials just how fast would this accelerate the vaccine timeline, even though, as you said, it is controversial . Reporter so theyre not doing it exactly yet they Just Announced today their intentions to start doing this and they are starting to make the preparations, trying to figure out the exact dose of the coronavirus, think about that, to dose it like a pill of the virus so that you could take it in a safe way. This still needs to be approved by authorities here in the uk. That approval is expected and they could start doing this in january. Keep us posted, richard thank you, fascinating story now to a Sweeping Campaign of cyberattacks thats making headlines around the world this morning. The Justice Department has just indited six Russian Intelligence Agency officers, claiming they hacked everything from foreign elections to the olympics and caused losses of nearly 1 billion to american companies. Todays Senior International correspondent keir simmons is following this story good morning to you. Reporter hey, craig, good morning. This morning a department of justice official confirm to go me that they do believe that this Russian Military Intelligence Unit just this year was trying to target japans 2020 olympics, this same unit back in 2016 was responsible for the election hack. Now it is accused of a large number of further cyberattacks the doj did not mention claims that russia was trying to intervene in this years election the 2018 Olympic Games in pyongyang were targeted by russian malware called olympic destroyer, according to the doj. On monday, u. S. Officials indicting six members of a hacking unit called sound worm, from russias military intelligence, the giu. No country has weaponized its Cyber Capabilities as maliciously and irresponsibly as russia reporter and this morning, british officials are accusing russia of carrying out cyber reconnoissance on the delayed games in tokyo four years ago russia was banned from Athletic Competition because of a statesanctioned doping campaign. Its head of athletics then admitting to me do you accept that doping has been widespread in russia . Also mainly, yes. Reporter but instead of cleaning up its act, the Justice Department says russia launched a campaign to attack and disrupt the olympics on reopening day of the 2018 games in south korea, thousands of computers were compromised. The computer code even emulated north korean hackers in an apparent effort to disguise its origin other targets, u. S. And british Officials Say, two pennsylvania hospitals. The french 2017 president ial elections. Ukraines power grid and british investigators looking into the poisoning of a former russian intelligence officer. This morning, one russian journalist and security expert skeptical, naming and shaming russian intelligence will work will russia cease hacking i dont think so. Reporter ironically, one piece of malware even referenced the cybersecurity show mr. Robot, where hackers aim to spread anarchy experts estimate the cost of russias alleged hacking has reached 1 billion so, keir, considering that these Russian Hackers likely wont be arrested here in the united states, what was the ultimate goal in even indicting them reporter well, craig, for some years now american and british officials have been following this policy of naming and shaming Russian Hackers and hackers from other parts of the world. As i mentioned in my report, there are many who question whether it is working, and certainly the Russian Embassy there in washington saying this morning that this is a witch hunt and espionage mania, and insisting that russia does respect the sovereignty of other nations. That said, this morning japan saying that it is determined to protect its olympics next year from cyber hacking, craig. Our Senior International correspondent, keir simmons. Thanks, buddy.

Good morning. Reporter good morning to you. After the first debate debacle in an effort to limit interruptions at this thursdays matchup, the commission on president ial debates overnight said it would mute the microphones of President Trump and joe biden to allow each candidate two minutes of uninterrupted time at the start of each segment. The Commission Says it is simply enforcing an agreedupon rule. The president said he will participate in the debate but argues he thinks the commission is, quote, very unfair ahead of the election a ruling from the Supreme Court is going to law mailin ballots in pennsylvania to be counted if they are received within three days of election day this move is a loss for republicans who had pushed to require that only ballots received by election day should be counted it comes as early voting is under way in another critical swing state, florida, continuing now through november 1st and finally, as covid cases surge, President Trump is laying into the nations top Infectious Disease expert, dr. Anthony fauci, in a call with campaign staff, the president calling fauci a disaster, and saying people are tired of hearing fauci and in the president s words, all these idiots. President trump said joe biden would listen to fauci, a comment that biden later said was not an attack, but a badge of honor, savannah. Thank you very much a reminder, you can watch the final president ial debate this thursday night on nbc. Our coverage begins at 8 00 eastern, 5 00 pacific time.

Cars are lining up outside of this drivethrough testing site even before it opened for the first time on monday and now more covid restrictions are back in effect after a judge upheld the wisconsin governors order limiting bars and restaurants to 25 capacity. Hour after hour, cars snake around the parking lot outside miller park, the home of Major League Baseballs milwaukee brewers, now the areas newest covid testing site. We all want to get back to work and have life as normal as possible reporter but as Wisconsin Health authorities report, more than 3,000 new coronavirus cases a day in the state, life is anything but normal here we spoke with several drivers from a distance. This 69yearold and his wife were getting tested together. I cant taste or smell and ive got like a head cold and i cant go back to work until its cleared. Reporter Frank Lockett is also feeling symptoms and has this warning. This aint no joke. Reporter right now, 82 of the hospital beds in wisconsin are filled authorities have opened an emergency field hospital, but so far its empty still, the chief medical officer of the states largest hospital says this winter could be devastating. There are really two areas that keep me up at night one of them is around what potentially may happen as we begin to see more influenza like illness, not just here in wisconsin, but across the country. Beyond that, i think the bigger concern is what will happen in terms of the resilience of our team members this has gone on for a long time reporter this morning, carmen lurma is fighting for her life in a Madison Hospital she was diagnosed with covid in july and spent 45 days in the icu. Its like gasping for air, thats how bad it feels. Reporter her doctors say the virus severely damaged her lungs. The 52yearold needs a double lung transplant.

Are they tessa . We are back. It is 8 10 now, as carson joins us for a closer look at a project thats really become very close to your heart. It is for the past couple of years savannah has had the honor, along with actor and oscar winner, tom hanks, to be an ambassador for Hidden Heroes and youve spoken so fondly about this group. This is an initiative started by the Elizabeth Dole foundation to provide much needed support to the nearly 6 million military and veteran caregivers in the u. S. Tonight is their annual gala, which im going to host again but it will be virtual this year were going to meet some of these amazing caregivers and their veterans live in just a moment first, we wanted to show you a day in the life of two courageous families. Theres kind of this life to caregiving, sometimes it feels like a constant game of curveballs we were in these alone and just trying to figure out everything, and then him adjusting back to civilian life was just so challenging. Sometimes i just didnt have answers. Cara benson and trisa smith live hundreds of miles apart but are close at heart both are caregivers for their veteran husband. Caras husband was a combat Army Engineer in iraq and suffers from a traumatic brain injury and degenerative neurological issues he was injured in 2003, but to put it into perspective, we didnt receive even a partially firm diagnosis until 2018. There were so many years of this is wrong, and doctors saying well, you know, we dont know, its in your head. Jason also suffers from a traumatic brain injury after being injured in an ied blast in afghanistan in 2009. I remember vividly just the hot embers falling and just the darkness turning into light and the feeling, the concussion. I shrugged it right off. I was back to work within a day. Their husbands returns from deployment changed men, while their wives tried to pick up the pieces, suffering in silence themselves as the stress of their new roles as caregivers took a toll. It was very isolating and very infuriating and at that point in time we didnt have a support network, we didnt have caregivers that i knew i was just learning the system to help him out. And so it was so infuriating and so lonely to fight that fight. But four years ago, that fight got a little less lonely with the creation of the Hidden Heroes campaign by the Elizabeth Dole foundation, providing veteran caregivers with the help and recognition they so deserve. Hidden heroes connects caregivers to helpful resources and each other. Hidden heroes has given me a voice, a sense of belonging. For me its been lifechanging. There is a camaraderie that comes in the darkest hours, really and now, both teresa and cara want to help light the way for others they have been selected to be Hidden Heroes fellows in honor for 225 caregivers around the country to serve as allies for other caregivers and give a voice to the voiceless. Its not going to be easy, but that doesnt mean because you fail sometimes, doesnt mean that, you know, you give up. Dont give up, even if you have to take it minute by minute, step by step, even if you cannot see the finish line and know that you dont have to do it alone. Well be there to help you along when you need it. It is our pleasure to be joined now by trisa and jason smith, cara and eric benson and the poi ya family, the cool listen family and bristol families and the caregivers are heroes, too. Cara, we just met you and heard a little about your story in the piece. How do you get up every day . Where do you fill your tank . Where do you find your resources to go forward every day, even on the hard ones . I think getting the network has really helped me find the resources. Caregivers are a wealth of information and the more you connect with each other, the more we can share that information. You can decide whether you need to connect with a caregiver, see how theyre doing, connect with a friend, just that fiveminute checkup does wonders when you are caregiving for a husband and multiple children. Yeah, youve got your hands full we say good morning to the whole family there trisa, you and i have met over the years a few times. And you know there are folks right now watching, trisa, who arent sure if we should reach out, who do feel alone but feel a little nervous about taking a step what has this meant to you and how would you encourage others reaching out, myself, im a caregiver, it has only empowered me, but has also given me the chance to own that not only am i a mother, a husband not a husband, not only am i a mother to my kids, im also a caregiver. That theyre not the caregiver title has give en me a voice that i can be able to help other caregivers to see that theyre really not alone. Were doing a good job taking care of i mean, juggling everything its not easy being a mother to these three kids its amazing you guys are awesome you have a voice, your kids have a voice. Carson, we have a surprise yes, and as a reminder, these are six of the 225 Hidden Heroes all across the country and to help them do their work, our parent company, comcast, is providing a brand new laptop to all 225 fellows. Comcast is providing these gifts through their internet essentials program, the largest effort in the nation to close that digital divide. And we want to thank Dell Technologies for wrangling all the computers. So 225 brand new laptops going out to help them out. What do you think what do you think awesome thank you. Bye. We want to show a little extra love to the poyer family and maggie and jack who are here, the paban family and collins family, we see you, too. Thank you for being with us. And good luck tonight. Yeah, the gala is going to be tonight. I hope everybody joins virtually. Weve got some incredible stories, including one that i brought to you last year about a mom and a wife who is taking care of her veteran and they have a beautiful update. Thats all ive got to say tom hanks, hillary swank. A whole bunch of folks. 8 00 eastern . Thats right. If you want to register, go over to today. Com and thank you, again, to our beautiful families and all you do. Its time for another check of the weather.

Were going to ask h i need a smaller house thats close to my son, but thats tough to do on a fixed income. Id be hit with a tax penalty for moving to another county, so im voting yes on prop 19. It limits property taxes and lets seniors transfer their homes current tax base to another home thats closer to family or medical care. Being closer to family is important to me. How about you . Voting yes on prop 19. We are back, back 8 36 with pink power today for Breast Cancer awareness month. This morning were looking at powerful stories from survivors themselves. As a college senior, Award Winning journalist ali rogin underwent a double preventive mastectomy after pesting positive for the brca gene mutation now shes focused on bringing together a sisterhood of people who beat the disease in a book beat Breast Cancer like a boss. Thank you so much for having me. Were so proud of you and this book is really its really different, because you talk about beating Breast Cancer and im sure a lot of people think, oh, is that just for people who dont have it anymore. And you really expand that definition can you tell me about why you came up with this title and what it means to you . Right what beating Breast Cancer means to me is something very different from the normal definition, which is going into remission and remaining cancer free i think thats far too limiting of a definition and it certainly leaves out a lot of women fin this community, and of course men, including those who are metastatic who will be living with Breast Cancer for the rest of their life. Those who have gone through multiple recurrences of Breast Cancer as so many women, hoda, im sure can attest, Breast Cancer is a daily struggle and that is the struggle that i want to talk about when we talk about beating Breast Cancer, because it is something that women who are dealing with Breast Cancer have to think about beating every single day. Yeah, it is that. And i think a lot of women see it as something that shapes them but doesnt define them, yet its always part of them and i thought what was fascinating about the book, too, is you spoke to Cokie Roberts and you spoke to her in a time where you thought she had actually beaten Breast Cancer, but that wasnt the case at all, was it thats exactly right, hoda. And i think the late great cokie really taught me a lesson that, unfortunately, i didnt fully realize until after she had passed when i interviewed her for this book, i was talking to her about her previous fight and i was in the mindset of thinking she has Breast Cancer in her Rearview Mirror what i didnt know is that she was back actively in the fight, her cancer had returned and it had progressed and yet she spoke to me with such a presence and an assuredness of being in the moment, talking to me about the things that she had done in her previous fight, which i know she carried on to her second fight, about being close with family, spending time with those she loved, doing the things that made her happy and so i think to me nobody really embodied beating Breast Cancer every single day like Cokie Roberts. You tell a lot of stories, people from all walks of life, news professionals, people in the boardroom, athletes. Tell me about maggie ka dur ka shes known as the bald ballerina on her blog. What did she teach you maggie is so incredibly inspiring. She was starting out as a young promising ballerina in new york city when she just graduated college, and she felt a pain in her sternum. And she tried to get it checked out, worrying that it might be Breast Cancer, but she was turned away by many doctors, who said youre way too young, just let it pass. By the time she got in to see a doctor, her cancer had progressed to the point where she is metastatic and she will be living with Breast Cancer for the rest of her life she had to put her dancing career on hold but she didnt let that stop her from living an incredible life. Shes now an advocate and a spokeswoman for those in the metastatic Breast Cancer community for which there is currently no cure, and shes still dancing every single day and just living life exuberantly and is such an inspiration. You interviewed so many people was there a Common Thread through all of these women because you dont want to wake up every morning and say, oh, gosh, is today the day it comes back thats not what you want to be saying to yourself so what was the admon thread you learned from these women what was interesting was i approached these women thinking they were going to provide me with lessons about the strategies that they had employed in their professional lives and how those strategies then translated to their fight with Breast Cancer what i realized is that Breast Cancer isnt like any other challenge that these women ever went through you cant just work harder at Breast Cancer and have it go away theres a certain amount of control that you need to let go and, you know, put your faith in the medicine and the team of doctors thats around you. And that takes a lot of mental strength to reorient your thinking about this challenge. And all of these women have different strategies that they employed, each one of them was very different, and so while i dont think this book can provide anybody with a specific lesson and a howto, it does give a lot of anecdotal information about how do you rethink this Breast Cancer battle because it is so different from other challenges we face. Ali, if you end up doing a volume 2, you should talk to hoda, because hoda, her one word mantra was forward, right . Just go forward.

And were were back kicking off a special series reunited today, where we bring together casts from some of your favorite tv shows and movies. Were really excited about this and were starting off with a fantastic one. Harry smith sat down with the cast of Everybody Loves raymond. Theyre reuniting for a very special cause and this is my late grandmothers favorite show we used to watch every episode every episode and for years after, right you know, whats interesting to me is in the years since the show went off the air, the members of the cast of Everybody Loves raymond would put on a show to raise money for the fight against multiple myeloma which took the life of the great peter boyle not long after the show went off the air. You cant do an inperson show with an audience and everything, so the answer is a table read. Well, raymond, its official. They love you no matter what you do [ laughter ] with a wagon load of emmys and nine seasons of smileworthy ratings, Everybody Loves raymond broadcast its final episode in may of 2005. Im sorry, but i am not the yeller. You are the reason for the yeller. Then came syndication and the show was everywhere. Thats going to need another coke the dial, theres one, theres another one, theres it was like sieinfeldian proportions. If you are surfing on the dial, theres one, theres another one, theres another one. You say that with a little bit of dread, theres another one, theres another one. [ laughter ] raymond is one of those shows audiences like to watch over and over again. Its a sitcom classic, no question i dont know what to do sometimes i just want to smack you. [ laughter ] when you looked over the script, what was it like to go back and sort of walk through that part again . You know, its funny, harry it immediately reminded me because, you know, a lot of those scripts we havent seen in maybe, i dont know, two years, it reminded me how amazing the writing was. And thats what really has always stood out we were very lucky to get a cast like this, we had a chemistry early on that, you know, you cant predict and you cant plan but it was really how all of the writing just stood up. I laughed out loud. By the way, as i do, when i see reruns of raymond and i basically spent the pandemic sitting in front of the tv watching reruns of raymond, and i laugh every time you kind of get to see the show like a viewer i appreciated it so much more now looking back at the scripts now, because i had forgotten what it was like im reading it on the page and im like, man, this was good. Easier now, no doubt. The show was roughly based on ray romanos own family and romano was also one of the executive producers. When youre in there and youre part of the writing and producing, its hard to watch it from a neutral standpoint. It was great to experience it now. I recommend it to anybody who has had a show thats been off the air for 15 years among the most important aspects of successful sitcom is casting. One of the things that has to happen is the casting has to be special, we read 200 women until patty came in the room to read for the wife explain to me how you cant fold a shirt explain to me how an adult human with thumbs is not able to do that they knew immediately and she often got the best lines. One of the best lines i had in all nine seasons was when i said to ray, if my parents lit an orphanage on fire on christmas day, they still wouldnt be as bad as your parents. She was the anchor, in my opinion. She was surrounded by this circus and what i loved with patty was i dont have to tell you, incredibly talented, but it was so easy to fall into that woe is me victimhood, and she played the strong woman who wouldnt take anyones crap. Lost since that last episode, both peter boyle and the redoubtable doris roberts. I am going to give you the secret to marital bliss. After you give it to him, why dont you let me in on it. We didnt do one script, we did select screens throughout the seasons and there were a lot of times where the scene, like mother comes in and we had to stop the scene there, but the funniest stuff was coming up with doris coming in or peter coming in. So, yeah, you just appreciate them and miss them even more. As for that everpresent suggestion common among hit come december about a reunion or a reboot weve kind of agreed that that not probably, it wont happen with us were missing peter, were missing doris, were missing the crux of the show this is kind of as close as it will get to us performing again the show we may do something together as a group and as a panel, as a talk show or something, but to actually perform as our characters, i think this is the only chance youll get to see it, you know sounds like a blast and if you want to watch, you can go on the myeloma website, they have a Youtube Channel and on facebook. Its free, its friday night, and them getting together and hearing them talk about it, their enthusiasm for it was just fantastic and quite infectious. I could have watched another 20 minutes of that, easy everybody has got a favorite. Its so much like lucy and dick van dyke. It has so many of those perfect notes, the perfect pitch. Do you have a favorite episode . Oh, my gosh, the episode where they leave they come back from vacation and they leave the suitcase on the landing and they put they will not its a battle of wills. The one where she throws out the mohammed ali ougautograph. Or he record over their wedding. Harry, thank you. Weve got two viewers right there. By the way, the reunited series is going to continue tomorrow because one hoda kotb, you hung out with the cast of meet the parents. It was fun. Bill stiller and company were there. Funny as can be. They have some great insight when de niro and ben worked together for the first time, ben was terrified. He was describing what that felt like great bunch. We look forward to that. First, though, we are going to take you to global life field in texas theyre getting ready for tonights start of the fall after a shortened season, tonight the world series finally starts.

Official tell me they do plan on having to remind everyone, make sure you have a mask on. That side, the excitement is building and fans are flying in from all over the country, which makes the new Covid Protocols even more critical the eighth pitch has been the magic one tonight. Reporter two hardfought game sevens now making for a oneofakind world series and they win the National League pennant. Reporter out to prove even a pandemic cant stop baseball. How does it feel to look out on this field and know that we still at least have the world series it has been so great to hear the cheers, the roar of the crowd. Just to hear that spontaneous reaction from fans is something thats been missing. Reporter major vp rob mattwood says the fans will find the stadium right. Seats are zip tied to keep everyone socially distance and everyone is required to wear masks all game long, despite the sellout series, the shadow of covid19 still looming large its a difficult thing. Dodger diehard john stein is flying for the First Time Since march to catch the games he knows the stakes are high not just for his team. You cant just randomly run up to strangers and hug them and stuff. Reporter even the players having to hold back. Its been a rough year. Reporter rays pitcher Ryan Yarbrough cant wait to see fans but says he still misses the highfives. I think thats the hardest thing, not being able to have those moments. Reporter baseball hasnt had one player or staff member test positive for covid19. Lets go dodgers reporter with just seven games left in the season, for most fans just getting to watch the series is a home run. When youre sitting there mask on, socially distanced in a quarterfilled stadium, youre still going to feel the magic . Morgan, i feel the magic watching the game in my living room i will absolutely feel the magic in the stadium on tuesday.
