On cbs this morning. Coronavirus Hospital Data will now be sent to the Trump Administration instead of the cdc. And i believe we have some live video of the new Trump Administration covid Data Processing center. Welcome to cbs this morning. Laughing baby is always good but lets not miss Stephen Colberts point. This is serious if we may not have the access to the figures we need which will help us get to a conclusion to this. Its very frightening. We need the information out in the open. That kids laugh, one of the best laughs ive heard. We need some transparency. Were going to begin where weve always began for the last week or so. Unfortunately this story is not changing. Were seeing new evidence that americas Coronavirus Crisis is getting worse. 41 states report a growing number of new cases. Pennsylvanias governor is ordering nightdlubs and bars to close after a jump in infections there. Health Officials Say the outbreak in los angeles has hit an alarming and dangerous phase, and theres a Record Number of covid hospitalizations across the United States. Anthony . Were also seeing more pushback over Wearing Masks in public from those who insist on it and others who say they dont want any face coverings. Our lead National Correspondent David Begnaud is in miami. David, florida just topped 300,000 total cases. Are the hospitals there able to keep up . Well, anthony, take miamidade county, for example. The hottest of hot spots in south florida. The most populated county. Theyve reached their traditional icu capacity. What are they doing now . Seth up overflow beds, getting them ready. The good news is they had less people with covid being admitted to the icu. Look for the good news here. But the concern is, even the extra beds they are setting up are not going to be enough moving forward. Which beds can we turn into covid beds . Which beds can we create safe isolation for . Thats dr. Nicholas namias from Jackson Health system in miami. He says it may be too late to avoid bed shortages. We have gridlock. And we wont be able to take patients in. Theyll just be stacked in the e. R. S. I got tested yesterday for covid19, and the results came back positive. Reporter oklahomas Governor Kevin Stitt became the first governor to test positive for the virus on wednesday, the same day his state broke the single day record for cases. From home in quarantine, he says hes not thinking at all about issuing a statewide mask mandate. Stitt hosted President Trumps rally in tulsa last month where he was seen not wearing a mask. It was a different story in alabama. That states governor kay ivey says masks are now mandatory effective today. Increased cases every day are still occurring, and we are almost to the point where our hospital icus are overwhelmed. Reporter in the absence of a federal mask mandate, some National Chains like starbucks request all customers wear masks. Yesterday walmart, americas largest retailer, announced a mask mandate at all of its more than 5,000 stores. The nations largest Supermarket Chain kroger followed suit. Cbs news chief medical correspondent dr. Jon lapook. Theres been mixed messaging about the need to wear face masks. I think the default on a National Level should be to wear a face mask. You cant let your guard down. It takes that one slipup to not wear your mask, not wash your hands. Reporter Michelle Zymet says she and her four children and husband all tested positive for coronavirus. Her 21yearold son likely brought the virus home after getting together with some friends who were lax about Wearing Masks. Her husband john is now on a ventilator. I know your 21yearold son feels a lot of guilt. What do you tell him . I mean, his dad loves him very much. We all love him. Its not that were blaming him. We could have caught it anywhere. Hes got to pull through. Theres no other way because im not going to tell his 6yearold daughter that her daddy is not coming home. Its just not going to happen. Reporter this is the 19th morning that john is in the icu fighting for his life. Florida remains a state where the governor refuses to institute a National Mandate for masks statewide. But north of here, overnight in georgia, the governor passed a law that overturns all local ordinances mandating masks including atlanta and savannah. The mayor tweeted, its officially official. Governor kemp does not give a damn about us. Every man and woman for himself, herself. Ignore the science and survive the best you can. Its dispiriting to see Public Health policy become a political battle, but there you have it. Thank you, david. A unique way of bringing it home for us. Lets go to south carolina. Thats another place theres a stark divide over mask wearing. Its a particularly sharp there, in fact. South carolina reported more than 1800 new cases. That was just yesterday. And who is getting the blame . Tourists are getting the blame for that increase. Mark strassmann is in charleston, south carolina, where the streets are full of visitors already. How serious is the outbreak there . Put it this way. They had to put up a sign in the heart of downtown to remind people, masks here are mandatory. This is upper king street, downtown charleston, an area known for its shops, bars and restaurants, Southern Charm and now the zip code with the highest covid rate in all of south carolina. Health officials estimate more than 1 in 3 residents would test positive. Summer heat, covid hot spot. And yet tourists often bare faced and shoulder to shoulder crowd downtown charleston streets. Youre not worried about it . No. Reporter blaze and David Jorgensen and their family left phoenix to vacation in charleston. Why would i be scared of it . Its like the flu so everyone is going to get infected. Everyones got it. Were humans. We live through this stuff. This is what our bodies are designed to do. Reporter epidemiologists disagree. South carolina has recorded more than 25,000 new cases over the last two weeks. Despite the threat, Governor Henry Mcmaster is pushing schools to reopen in september. We must reopen our economy. People must go to work. Schools must have inclass facetoface teaching so these children do not fall behind. Reporter by City Ordinance in charleston, masking is not a choice. Its mandatory for anyone over the age of 9. The city just doubled fines for violators. 100 for the first offense. Most people we saw wore one. Not Melissa Dickinson from southern illinois. We forgot them. Yeah. But you feel okay about it . Yeah. When we passed people, we just try not to breathe. Reporter another challenge, almost 140,000 american deaths into the crisis. Many people see the covid scare as overblown. I mean, people die of stuff all the time. I dont know why i would change my life to be afraid of this. Theres plenty of stuff to be afraid of. This is certainly not one of them. I talked to one clerk here on king street in an upper end clothing store. She had to tell a customer he had to put on a mask or leave the store. He got irate, stormed out. She saw the moment for what it probably was. An idle threat. Gayle, we live in strange, contentious times. We really do, mark. I dont know what more we can say to convince people. Its a matter of life and death. Its not politics when it ghsco to a mask. President trumps support has fallen while this pandemic rages on. And now hes shaking up his reelection campaign. The president says Campaign Manager Brad Parscale is taking on a new role. Hes been replaced by longtime republican operative bill stepien. A new poll shows Democrat Joe Biden leading the president 52 to 37 . Weijia jiang is at the white house with more on this story. Good morning to you. Do you think this is likely to change the president s Campaign Strategy . Good morning, gayle, and to everybody. Cbs news has learned that advisers have told President Trump he has to get more combative and political, which we have seen this week. But the president is not open to new ideas. And prefers to go off instinct. He also refuses to believe bad polling, even from his own team. Parscales demotion is just one of several recent Campaign Shakeups. And sources say it was a long time coming. And his name is Brad Parscale, and he is fantastic. Reporter Brad Parscale fell out of favor with President Trump after he bragged that more than 1 Million People had requested tickets to the president s june rally in tulsa. And just over 6,000 people showed up. We begin our campaign. Reporter the Campaign Turmoil comes as mr. Trump is trying to distance himself from criticism of dr. Anthony fauci. I get along very well with dr. Fauci. I have a very Good Relationship. Reporter President Trump insisted wednesday his relationship with fauci is fine. Even though last week he accused the doctor of making lots of mistakes during the pandemic. And despite economic adviser Peter Navarros scathing oped attacking fauchy in which navarro said he listens to faucis advice only with skepticism and caution. Its a bit bizarre. They realize now that was not a prudent thing to do because its only reflecting negatively on them. Reporter fauci also said he was not involved in the administrations new order for hospitals to send their data on covid19 directly to the department of health and Human Services instead of the cdc. Hhs secretary alex azar argues the only difference is the platform that will be used to report information. There are concerns that the data will be politicized or kept from the public. How can you assure people thats not going to happen . Hhs is cdc and cdc is hhs. This is something we should be celebrating, which is were identifying a problem with our Public Health Data Infrastructure and we are solving it to get that information. Reporter in an interview for instyle magazine, dr. Fauci told cbs evening news anchor and managing editor Norah Odonnell he doesnt like being pitted against the president because hes an apolitical person. When asked how long he plans to stay on the Coronavirus Task force, he said he doesnt plan on going anywhere any time soon. Anthony . Thats good news. Weijia, thank you. Twitter has revealed new details about one of the biggest cyberattacks on the social network. It believes hackers accessed its internal systems after targeting twitter employees. Yesterday fake messages appeared on the twitter accounts of dozens of celebrities, politicians and billionaires, including barack obama, elon musk and kanye west. Twitters Ceo Jack Dorsey wrote, tough day for us at twitter. We all feel terrible this hand. Were diagnosing and will share everything we can when we have a more complete understanding of exactly what happened. Anna werner shows us how the scam worked. Reporter the tweet from tesla and spacex founder elon musk seemed too good to be true. Im feeling generous because of covid19 ill double any btc payment sent to my btc account for the next hour. Good luck and stay out there. The address posted right below. Similar tweets appeared on the accounts of celebrities kanye west and Kim Kardashian west. Politicians, former president obama and joe biden. And billionaires michael bloomberg, jeff bezos and bill gates. Companies like apple and uber were also targeted. Heres how it worked. The sophisticated scammers took over verified accounts and then convinced twitter users to send bitcoin, a Digital Currency that can be traded for dollars to a website and promised double the money back. Within hours, twitter limited functions for all verified accounts and acknowledged the hack saying we are investigating and taking steps to fix it. Its a terrifying moment for twitter. Reporter Nick Thompson is wireds editor in chief and says the way the scam was executed, hacking into twitter r itself and not individual accounts, makes it stand out from others. Normally, when you see the scam, its coming from the address of someone whose name you dont know. Its not coming from elon musk. Reporter Thompson Says hijacking verified accounts in an age when tweets make news could have disastrous consequences. Now that so much of life happens on twitter, getting access to the most popular verified accounts means you can do near infinite damage. Reporter twitter is still investigating this hack. The big question, of course, who was the hacker . Nobody knows that right now. But the company says it had locked most compromised accounts and would reopen them when it was safe to do so. Tony . The big question is, who was the hacker . Also what else may they have in the direct messages, for example, on the twitter accounts. Anna, thank you. Were learning new details about the death of george floyd from new body camera video that has not been released for viewing by the public. Its from the cameras of thomas lane and j. Alexander kueng. Those were the first two officers to arrive on the scene. Theyve been charged with aiding and abetting in the death of floyd. The footage has not been shown to the public for fear it could taint a jury. Jeff pegues is following the investigation for us, though. What more can you tell us about the video . Reporter good morning. I spoke to a reporter at our minneapolis station wccotv who saw that video. And she says when the officers tried to get floyd into the back of a squad car, thats when the situation there really deteriorated. Also, the body cam footage shows that one of the officers pulled a gun on floyd shortly after arriving on scene. Floyd sounds upset and distraught and you can hear him repeatedly pleading with the officers not to arrest him. He tells them hes claustrophobic. When they attempt to put him into the squad car, you can hear a fearful floyd saying, im not a bad guy. The floyd family has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the city of minneapolis and the four fired officers. Ben crump is one of their attorneys. We seek to set a precedent to make it financially prohibitive that the police wont wrongfully kill marginalized people. Reporter minneapolis city officials are reviewing that lawsuit, and they say that they plan to respond to it. Also, the attorneys representing the rookie officers lane and kueng, they say that they want that body camera footage out there because they believe it presents a more complete picture of what happened that day.

Daytime highs seasonal for that time of year, warm inland and mild around the bay and cooler at the coast. Very similar friday and were warm welcome back to cbs this morning. Me back to cbs this we are hearing from one of Jeffrey Epstein alleged victims. Her name is Virginia Roberts dufray. In her first interview since Ghislaine Maxwell was denied bail this week, maxwell is accused of helping epstein sexually abuse underage girls. This is the first time that maxwell has faced criminal charges in connection with epstein despite accusations against her that extend back more than two decades now. Dufray claims maxwell along with epstein recruited, groomed, and abused her. She lives in australia now, married with three children. We talked to her yesterday. She told us that she thinks Ghislaine Maxwell should spend the rest of her life behind bars. She is a monster. Shes worse than epstein. She did things even worse than epstein did. She was vicious. She was evil, and shes a woman. Reporter her lawyers have said Ghislaine Maxwell is not a Jeffrey Epstein. That she has been a victim of media spin. Theyre doing their job, but i know that woman ive known her really well. Put it this way epstein was pennacchio and she was pinocchio and she was gepetto. Pulling the strings . Yep. She had his money, he had her contacts. But ghislaine was more conniving and smart than epstein ever was. Reporter Virginia Roberts dufray says she first met jettison and Ghislaine Maxwell epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell when she was 17. Prince andrew has denied an encounter and its possible the picture with his arm around her waist was doctored. Is there any way you could have had sex with any young woman trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein . No. Prince andrew should be panicking. He knows hes guilty. He needs to be held accountable. We need to show the world that the rich and the mighty can fall, too. Do you think that ghislaines life is in danger . Absolutely. If she squeals on some of the people that she has videos on, they wont be happy with her talking about that. When you say she has videos or knowledge of videos that exist about people, people like who . People wellknown names . Very wellknown names. You know, the government officials, the politicians, the royalty. You know, they were taping everybody every moment when you walked into the new york mansion to palm beach. Do you think people knew they were being taped . No, i do not. Not at all. Dufray alleges maxwell and epstein were blackmailing the wealthy and powerful. She said Ghislaine Maxwells arrest made a charge in justice Ghislaine Maxwell helped Jeffrey Epstein sexually exploit and abuse multiple minor girls it was just surreal. It was momentous. One of those life moments that ill never forget. Reporter virginia, how did you pete her . What was her pitch to you . Im working at maralago, loving it. Im working in the spa area. I was reading about massage, and thats when ghislaine came up and said, oh, my god, youre reading a book about massage. Long story short, she told me that she knew of a man who was looking for a traveling masseuse, and if he liked me, i would get educated and become a real massage therapist. So yeah, i mean, it was dream of a lifetime until i got there and the abuse was immediate. It has been reported that they would prey on young girls who were vulnerable. She could smell the vulnerability on a person. I told them a little bit about my past and how id been abused. So immediately it was like the cheshire smile is what i call it. I asked her, i said, why are you as welling all these girls come in and sleep with your boyfriend . And she was like, so i dont have to do it all the time. You know, she made like a joke out of it. Why do you think she did it . She did it to keep jeffrey happy for sure. She did it because she loves the control over people. Jeffrey was a sick pedophile. But she was the mastermind. What wouldctims survivors fe been robbed, this they did not their day in court. It would have been great to look at him and say, you know, you hurt me, you took away my innocence, you took away my youth. He took that away, too. Im hoping we get to do this with ghislaine. Does the gubuck stop with Ghislaine Maxwell . No the buck stops when every person is held accountable and our children are safe. Not just my monsters but all the monsters. And we need everyones help. Maxwell has pleaded not guilty to the charges against her and denies wrongdoing. Virginia roberts dufrays claims are not part of the indictment. Maxwells attorneys declined to comments on her accusations. Anthony, during the interview, i asked is she cooperating with investigators on this particular case. Her lawyer intervened at that point and told her stop talking, do not answer that question. She says, listen, shes 36 now. She is afraid. Shes very afraid. She admits that. She says the truth that she knows needs to come out. And you know, she has a great sense of humor, by the way. She said, if i had to take a rubber boat and paddle from australia to the United States, she is planning to come to attend the trial. Shes been very brave. Very compelling. Very believable. And has been very brave. The most shes come forward more strongly than anyone i think. It is interesting, something that you hear from many of epsteins survivors, gayle, this sense that epstein was a pedophile and was sick. But that Ghislaine Maxwell chose to essentially mastermind and run this entire operation of his. And they are theyre very bitter about it. All right. Ahead, well take that is her charge. Go ahead. I know the delay is tough. Im sorry. And that is what gets her more than anything, the fact that shes a woman, virginia said, and preyed on young girls makes this doubly hard. Not that it excuses anybody, but the fact that shes a woman makes this doubly hard because allegedly it gave victims, she said, a sense of security knowing that it was a woman. Yeah. What is interesting is that many of the victims also say they are still fearful to this day, as you say, that she has said. Ahead, well take you to sweden to find out what happened when the scandinavian country decided to avoid strict lock downs during the pandemic. Well be right back.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is back home and said to be doing well after she was hospitalized for a possible infection. The 87yearolds symptoms began monday when she went to the hospital after experiencing fever and chills. She had a stent cleaned that was placed in august when she was treated for a malignant tumor on her pancreas. Shes survived cancer four times and is the oldest member of the Supreme Court with 27 years on the bench. Back in 2019 she said she will always stay on this job as long as she can do it full steam. Moving to this. In an historic move, the city council in asheville, North Carolina, voted unanimously to approve a reparations resolution for black residents. The resolution calls for the city to make investment in areas where black residents face disparities. It also asks the city manager to create a plan to build generational wealth and boost economic mobility in the black community. The resolution also includes a formal apology for the role the city played in slavery and enforcing racist policies. We should note the resolution stops short of stipulating direct payments. But were seeing momentum for measures like this in places like providence, rhode island, and california. The fact that this is happening in a former confederate state was noted by keith young, one of the two africanamerican Member Council members. He said hundreds of years of black blood spilled that basically fills the cuppy that detroit red wing from today. I say go, asheville, North Carolina. People are opening themselves up to this conversation for the first time. I think its important when you look at the history, youll have a better understanding about why so many people are pushing for that. I think this is a good thing.

I want to know tips for getting a baby to wear a hat. I cant get mine to wear a sun hat for more than one second. Maybe they can share online. Ill this. Amazing what you can do with a box. I thought that was clever. Were going to begin with this. The shocking rise in coronavirus cases in the u. S. Really showing no signs of letting up. More than 66,000 new cases were reported yesterday. That brings the total number of new cases in the past week to more than 443,000. That is significant because thats more cases in all but three other countries have reported since the pandemic started. In atlanta President Trump did not wear a mask while he was there to make a speech. After atlantas mayor accused him of breaking the law because she put a mandatory mask ordnance in place. The Governor Brian Kemp signed an executive order banning cities and counties in georgia from ordering people to wear masks in public. At least 25 other states have mask orders of some kind, and that includes a mandate in neighboring alabama that goes into effect today. The World Health Organization says most people with mild cases of covid19 should be okay again within two weeks. But thousands of patients are experiencing serious physical and mental symptoms months after theyve apparently recovered from the disease. They can include fever, vision problems, burning skin, exhaustion, hair loss, brain fog, and shortness of breath. Its unclear how common it is. Our doctor spoke with several people sometimes called long haulers. The ride home was amazing. Reporter this covid19 survivor says the day he left the hospital was one of the best days of his life. Reporter did you feel you had survived, beaten this . Or were you still having issues at that point . Being if the hospital for so long, being in the isolation is really hard. I knew that my muscles atrophied. I could hardly walk. When i got out of the hospital, i felt like i got an opportunity. Reporter late march he was in the hospital were ten days with syrevere symptoms. He was put on a ventilator and put in a medically induced coma. Months later, his battle isnt over. I still feel tired and have no stamina. It wasnt affect much, but to me its like mt. Everest. Reporter candace was hospitalized for four days in april. But she never went to the icu. In may she tested negative but hasnt fully recovered either. I have really bad joint pain. I still have this pressure in my chest. I also have had a lot of confusion where ill have to rethink several times two or three times in order to comprehend what im reading. Reporter shes not loss of hair and the sensation of burning skin. My skin was on fire. Reporter studies show covid19 patients may experience lingering symptoms from lung, kidney, heart, brain, and nervous system damage caused by the disease. They left the hospital because they were well enough to get out of hospital. It doesnt mean theyre healthy. Reporter this doctor leads a post discharge clinic for covid19 patients at a brooklyn hospital. The clinic taps into different specialists to help patients recover and learn more about the disease. This covid19 involves the brain, the nervous system. The skin. The kidneys. The heart. The lungs. The gi tract. Reporter it sounds like the message is just because you survived covid, youre not out of the woods. There may be lingering effects on multiple different organ systems . Absolutely. Patients may have lingering side effects that is not apparent yet, but it would be apparent a few years from now. I got sick march 16th of this year. Ive never gotten better.

The thing, the memory loss, brain fog, what are doctors learning about the mental, lingering mental effects of this . Reporter well, im glad you asked about that, anthony. Many of these patients are going to face a second battle. That battle has to do with Mental Health conditions. Experts have told us they expect to see an up tick in depression, a ang zity and ptsd. In patients in general who come out of the ciu, theyre at risk, but these are patients seeing doctors in space suits without that connection. Theyve been socially isolated from their family. And theyre coming back into a world thats completely different socially and economically. And so even the patient that we interviewed in the piece, he said i think ill recover physically. I dont think ill ever recover mentally. He was diagnosed with ptsd and gave us examples about waking up with nightmares in a cold sweat. His twoyearold daughter playfully jumping on his chest while he was sleeping. He pushed her feeling the sensation of being suffocated again like when he was being intubated. Important for families to know when their family members come home, they may be at risk for this. For doctors to be screening and very important for patients to know if they experience any of this to please speak up and speak to their provider and get help. Yeah.

In a recently surfaced podcast, cannon referenced antisemitic conspiracy theories. Viacomcbs has severed ties with him. Jericka duncan is following the story. Good morning. Reporter good morning to you, anthony. Hours after his termination, cannon called out viacom cbs as liars and demanded the rights to his Popular Program wild and out. He claims he reached out to viacomcbs officials before he was fired to apologize, but the corporation which is our Parent Company denies that. And now the media mogul is left explaining why he says he now feels ashamed. Atlanta, make some noise [ cheers ] reporter for more than 20 years, nick cannon has loomed large as a host and entertainer. Reporter its a conversation with a former member of the hiphop group public enemy, rapper professor grif, that has been called into question. You cant be antisemitic when the semitic we are the semitic people, when we are the same people that you who they want to be, thats our birth right. Thats our births right. Reporter the nearly 90minute interview was part of the podcast cannons class. It was recorded last year but resurfaced this week after excerpts made their rounds across social media platforms. In one section, cannon describes what he says are problems with people who dont have melanin in their skin. Theyre the true savages, and they built up such this i dont want to say warrior, but they built up such this this conquering, barbaric mentality that theyre coming out of europe, they then said in order for us to survive, we have to take whats not ours. Reporter he went on to explain why he believed jewish people ruled the world. When we talk about the six corporations, when we go as deep as the rothchilds, centralized banking, the the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything, even outside of america reporter those comments led viacomcbs to cut ties with cannon writing, viacomcbs condemns bigotry of any kind, and we categorically denounce all forms of antisemitism. While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating antisemitism. Late last night cannon did apologize for his comments via twitter. They reinforce the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people, and i feel ashamed of the uninformed and naive place that these words came from. These tropes about jewish people behind the scenes, manipulating events, are dangerous and wrong. Reporter Jonathan Greenblatt is the ceo of the antidefamation league. The people who push out these prejudices or unknowingly repeat them need to understand their history, why theyre so grotesque. And again, acknowledge the pain that they caused. Reporter antisemitic incidents are on the rise in the United States. Last year, a record 2,107 were reported, a 12 increase from the year before. And recent n recent days celebrities have been criticized for their comments about jewish people. Philadelphia eagles wide receiver Desean Jackson apologized for an Instagram Post where he attributed a quote to Adolph Hitler that read jews will blackmail america. Were raised with a lot of prejudices, were raise wednesday like inherent biases. Reporter jemele hill wrote about the antisemitism we didnt see and describes her mistake covering a story for espn years ago. And the people that i wrote for espn that rooting for the celtics is like saying hitler was a victim. She was suspended for a week. It just taught me a huge lesson, and i had to understand from that that i had some blind spots, culturally, despite the fact i considered myself to be an educated person when it came to racial and social issues. But i think once we have enough selfawareness and certainly enough maturity where we can know better and certainly do better, then its our responsibility to do that. Reporter cannon says his experience led him to speak to rabbis and Jewish Community leaders. I have had at least a minor History Lesson over the past few days, and to say that it is eye opening would be a vast understatement, he wrote. I want to assure my jewish friends new opening would be a vast here he can have the important conversation. Anthony . Jericka duncan, thank you. Some teachers say theyre preparing wills before going back to classrooms during the pandemic. Ahead, well hear from them directly with ideas on balancing education and safety. Youre watching cbs this morning. For the sweaty faces, and the hidden smiles. The foggy glasses, and the muffled laughs. Th a simple piece of fabric makes a big statement i care. Wear a mask. Lets all do our part to slow the spread. A kayaker in North Carolina got a little too close to something lurking in the water. Heres what happened to him so thats peter joyce. Hes just paddling along the Waccamaw River on sunday when an alligator you have to look closely on the lefthand side suddenly rams his kayak. He leaps out of the water. He says that the river was calm, listen to his breathing when he thought it was a fish, watch the alligators coming, seconds later look at that the gator hit the kayak throwing joyce into the murky water. I was looking to the right when it all happened. So i kind of thought it was actually like a fish jumping to the left. And by the time i got spun around, it was about four feet away. Joyce told cbs this morning the only injury he suffered was to his pride. Tony, i dont even think he has to worry about his pride suffering. Number one, the guys a firefighter and a paramedic, so hes clear he he knows how to stay cool and calm under pressure. He looks cool telling the story. Were glad hes okay. Yeah. And could have had a very different ending. Im sure he knew there were alligators when he went kayaking there. I would have been seeing that video, he fell in the water. There was an alligator there. Im terrified. Nightmares for weeks i think. All right. Ahead in a more Perfect Union, a photographers 11,000mile journey capturing images of lif under good morning, its 8 25. Im len kiese and the Vallejo Police department is under investigation for the destruction of some evidence in the Sean Monterrosa case. Officials say the windshield that was shattered when an officer fired from his Police Cruiser killing the 22yearold last month has been destroyed. An employee has now been placed on administrative leave. Smoke in a fire in Fresno County is causing hazy conditions in parts of the bay area. The mineral fire is burning more than 16,000 acres west of coalinga. At last check the fire was 20 contained. Black lives matter activists and their allies will hold a News Conference to defend a mural in front of city hall in palo alto. They plan to push back against a request by the National Police association to have that mural removed. And as we check the roadways right now, things are easing up nicely for the most part. So just headed out the door and you are going to take the san mateo bridge, overall a pretty easy ride. South 880 just a little slow through hayward. But things are for the most part clear out of oakland and no delays once you are on 101 through the peninsula. And as we take a look at the golden gate bridge, traffic moving at the slim along 101 both directions in marin. Extra volume southbound heading into San Francisco across the span of the golden gate. Mary . Gianna, an air quality advisory in effect today and for tomorrow due to hazy skies from smoke from the mineral fire in Fresno County. Drifting into the bay area. We will see temperatures near seasonal for this time of year and mid 80s in concord for a high. Looking at 80 fremont and 83 in san jose and 72 in oakland and 67 for San Francisco. Very similar for tomorrow. Then were going to warm things these are real people, not actors, whove got their eczema under control. With less eczema you can show more skin. So roll up those sleeves. And help heal your skin from within with dupixent. Dupixent is the first treatment of its kind that continuously treats moderatetosevere eczema, or atopic dermatitis, even between flare ups. Dupixent is a biologic and not a cream or steroid. Many people taking dupixent saw clear or almost clear skin. And had significantly less itch. Dont use if youre allergic to dupixent. Serious allergic reactions can occur, including anaphylaxis, which is severe. Tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems, such as eye pain or vision changes, or a parasitic infection. If you take asthma medicines, dont change or stop them without talking to your doctor. So help heal your skin from within and talk to your eczema specialist about dupixent. If your financial situation has changed, we may be able to help. Welcome back to cbs this morning. The labor departments weekly unemployment numbers have just come out. They continue to fall but remain at historically high levels. 1. 3 million americans filed for jobless benefits last week. That number is far above the old record set before the pandemic. More than 51 Million People now have filed for unemployment during the past four months. Its important to know that the number of weekly claims has fallen for 15 weeks in a row. And now its time to bring some of the stories that are the talk of the table this morning. This, of course, is where we each pick a story to share with each other and with all of you. And gayles going first. Okay. Do you believe in fate when it comes to love . Ill go first yes, i do. Some say these two are proof of it. Their names are heather and baxter. They met each other at this photo session in virginia on sunday. It appeared that they hit it off right away. They both answered an ad, baxter said hed be lying if he said he didnt feel the chemistry. Whole thing changed when i seen her. We have dates planned. Three of them at least. Three. Well, three dates all right, i like it. These photos were posted on facebook on monday. Theyve been shared more than 48,000 times. Wow. I just think they also want to stress, guys, that the couple and the photographer all took covid tests, and they all tested negati , want to put that out there. What i like so much about the story theres an intimacy in these photos, the way that theyre touching each other, the way that theyre looking at each other, that its hard to believe that these two just met moments before this picture was whoa moments before the picture was taken. They got nice they got nice teeth. I mean, i just think, you know, who knows how this is going to turn out . Who knows . I like how its started. If it works out, theyll have a great story to tell. Guess how i met baxter and heather i like that they planned three dates, not just the next one. They were like, lets go with three dates. Well plan out the month. Yep. Great looking couple. You can tell there was a connection right away. Heres my story the new york mets opening day is next friday, a week from friday. Fans are not allowed but can still be there kind of. The mets announced a cardboard cutout program for 86. They will put a cutout photo of you in the stands at city field. Cutouts are free for season Ticket Holders who renewed their packages for next year. The proceeds go to the mets foundation. When baseball resumed in south korea earlier this year, you may remember teams had cutouts of their fans in the ballparks, too. Other teams are doing this. The mets are also sources say the mets are also going to be piping in crowd noise along with the cutouts of fans. I guess that probably wont include any booing i dont think are we aware of any confirmed takers yet . I would love to be able to be watching the game at home and see myself in the crowd. They say you cant pick your seat. That you cant do. Thats problematic. I think thats fun. Its fun, you know. A lot of money. I think its fun. And i wonder tony, i wonder, anthony, are you going to be okay . How you feel about the mets. We know more than anything you would like to go to opening day. Will you be all right . Should we bring in a therapist that day . I might need some help. I might need some help. The cutout would help. Some would say the cutouts are on the field. Yes. All right. My talk of the table is about schools reopening this fall with daily coronavirus cases increasing in dozens of states. Teachers all across the country are voicing concern about the health risks. While most teachers agree that facetoface learning is better for students, many also wonder at what cost. A study by the Kaiser Family foundation found that about one in four teachers, one in four, have a condition that puts them at a higher risk of serious illness from the virus. So what we did is we asked a Diverse Group of teachers from four states about how they feel going back. [ cheers ] i definitely want to get us back into school safely. There are kids in unsafe places, and school is their safe place to be. I want to see my students Smiling Faces in front of the classroom. But do i want students to come back . I want them to come back safely. Not all schools have soap, not all schools have portable water. Theres a lot to consider when youre reopening buildings where hundreds of people are coming into contact with each other every day. I feel very uneasy returning to facetoface instruction because i am putting my children at risk of contracting covid19. Going back to school is not going to mean going back to school the way we remember it being. We are going to have reduced class sizes. We are going to have distancing. Unless they get close the less they get close to each other the better. Everything is going to be different, and that is okay. Lets talk about there the federal government, the City Government needs to step up and invest in education and all the different guarantees to make sure that we dont die. I have underlying conditions, and id like to support my students. But if i pass from this disease, i wont be able to support my students or my young adult children. We did not get into this profession for the money. We got into this profession because we love kids. While youre not there, were there, and we want to make sure that they have the best environment possible before going back. Dan domenech is the executive director of the American Association of school administrators. Hes leading a task force that is assisting schools around the country with their plans to reopen safely. He joins us now. Good morning to you, sir. You know, the stakes could not be higher. We heard teachers talk about how its a lifeordeath choice, going back to the classroom. How are you advising schools to weigh the benefit of inschool construction against that risk that could really be catastrophic . Well, good morning, tony. And absolutely. We have been talking to superintendents from all over the country for the last couple of months trying to come up with how to reopen schools safely. And that is the primary concern safety. So we are concerned about the safety of the students but also the safety of the staff. So we have a number of plans, and youre seeing that happening right now in terms of what districts have announced is going to happen when school opens. There are three plans. The one is to come back as if nothing has happened which, by the way, some districts are considering. I dont know why. The second one is this hybrid model where basically students come in for a couple of days a week, then theyre home, so this way you can try to get to all of the kids in the building. The third one, which were also beginning to see, particularly in districts around washington, d. C. , and other parts of the country, is that its not safe yet. Therefore, Remote Learning is going to continue. Safety is the primary factor. Were using the cdc guidelines primarily in terms of outlining for us what is safe. We want to make sure students are safe, and we want to make sure that staff is safe. Dan, in the three categories that you outlined, im curious with the tens of millions of students around the country waiting for an outcome, who is in what category, and how big are the three categories . How many states and School Districts might be going back with very few precautions . How many in the middle position, and how many not going back at all . Its interesting how things are changing. I can tell you that a month ago in talking to many of our colleagues along the Southern Belt states, at that point they were considering just opening schools. Come one, come all. In many cases without any precautions in terms of spacing or face masks. Thats beginning to change now. And were beginning to see even governors in those states like kansas is an example, indicating that face masks are mandatory. Postponing the opening of schools. The prime thing here is you want to open schools according to what was phase two from the white house a couple of months ago. And that is when the epidemic, the rate of infection is going down, not going up. Thats when you do that, that you have the social spacing and all the other precautions. Yeah, there may be most states right now are either stable or going up in case counts. If we go by that indicator, i mean, most places are not going to open. I have a question from jessica in indiana, a viewer who also i believe is a teacher. She wants to know simply why are we even talking about going to the classroom at all . Why sacrifice, in her view, the health of teachers and students and maybe families when elearning is an option . It is an option. And youre seeing more and more districts doing that, announcing that, that they are going to open but remotely. The key thing here are the conditions. The rate of the epidemic in that community. If its going up, you dont want to open. If it is going down, if its minimal if things are being stabilizing, then opening following the precautions listed by the cdc are important. The sixfeet spacing between children, wearing of masks, and all of those factors. It has to be determined by the community. But it has to be when its safe to open, not the condition we see in many states where the infection rate is sky high. Yeah. If schools make the investment to change the environment and reopen and then they get a case, does that mean they shut down completely . What happens then . Absolutely. Thats what the guidelines say. If theres a case in the building, a student or staff or more than that, that building has to shut down. It has to be sanitized and has to be a period of time before the schools can come back. So you can almost predict that when schools do open, even with the safest of precautions, the minut minute theres a case theyll have to shut down down. Teacher of the year this past year, she says, look, we know things are going to be different. What can teachers do to help students feel like this is a normal year in some sense . Well, you know what, i dont think theres any way you can help students feel that this is a normal year because its not. But the reality is that these children, these students have gone through a lot of issues, stress, problems. And first and foremost, the teachers have to deal with that. They have to talk to their students. They have to make sure that theyre comfortable. They have to hear their issues and problems. Yes, theres been academic, learning loss. No question about that. But first and foremost, in addition to the safety and welfare of the students, is emotional status. And teachers do a very good job in doing that. Yeah. They sure do. And we should remind our viewers that this is not a federal decision, it is a state and local decision right down to the level of the school district. Dan domenech, thank you very much for walking us through your positions. Ahead in our a more Perfect Union series, from boarded up restaurants and empty streets to protests for social justice. How a photographer finds hope on a journey through america well many people have such a misunderstanding as to how a reverse mortgage works. People think that the bank takes your home, but that is not true. Thats absolutely 100 wrong. The home is ours. We can sell it if we want to at any time. I like the flexibility of not having a payment, but i can make the payment if i want to. Youre responsible for keeping up your property taxes and youre responsible for paying your insurance on the property. For us, it was a security blanket. The value of our house, was to fund our longterm health care. For years, reverse Mortgage Funding has been helping customers like these use the equity from their homes to finance their lives. They know the importance of having financial security. Make an appointment so they can tell you how it works. Its a good thing. Access your equity. Stay in your home. Have peace of mind. Our series a more Perfect Union aims to show that what unites us as americans is far greater than what divides us. This morning, we introduce you to photographer brian bowen smith. Thats a cool name. Like so many artists and entrepreneurs, his business just dried up when the coronavirus hit. So thats when he decided to hit the road in his vintage truck to document a country under quarantine. So along the way he photographed the famous names you know theres Reese Witherspoon and the blended family of demi moore and bruce willis. As meg oliver shows, thats good but he also captured the spirit and soul of everyday americans. My name is brian bowen smith, im a photographer, and i traveled over 11,000 miles across the United States of america in my ford f100 documenting whats going on during this covid crisis. And freeze good. As you were driving across the country, what does america look like during this quarantine . Beautiful. But on the other hand, i was seeing it empty with no one Walking Around per se. I was seeing it in a sad time, as well, with all these restaurants and the Hardware Store all boarded up. It broke my heart. Reporter to see these uplifting signs, as well. Yes. Reporter you took a lot of pictures of Smiling Faces. There is a family in that pickup truck, the dad is holding his son and the baby in the back. Almost everyone was so happy to see me. It did bring joy. This photo truly was a gift for everyone. Hes positioned and he put his arms around his brother, and then his brother grabbed his hands, and i shot the picture. Got chills. The doctors, you see the nurses, took off their masks for a second. You see the lines. Theyre like, im so glad youre doing this, and they start crying. Thank you, new york. Coast to coast, we did it. Reporter what did you it learn from this journey about our country during a crisis . I think our country is coming together. The one Dairy Farmers we went to, its literally like we wont make it. The neighbors from down the street were coming and helping the farmers and the family make things work. Reporter during a crisis, we see people unite. How does that feel knowing you captured the moments . It made me feel like were going to be okay. I think that our country is super strong. Our country doesnt want to go down. But our country also i think loves each other. At the end of the day theyre going to bond together and do what we need to do. Wow. Thank you very much, brian bowen smith. We just saw a picture of common standing in front of a sign. I always like color pictures, but all the photographers always say black and white really shows the power. You certainly see that, tony, looking at his work. So well done. Gave me goosebumps. Interesting to hear that he thinks we are coming together as a country. I guess when youre taking a black and white photo, you push out the noise, the color, you see things simply. Sounds like good news if he thinks things are getting better. Great idea to travel across the country and take pictures from a truck. I think so, too. Very powerful stuff. Youre watching cbs tis morning. That kind of truck. Yeah. That kind of truck.
