the daily death toll falling to a four month low on monday. at the very same time roughly 10% of the population has now been fully vaccinated, while nearly 20% have gotten at least one shot. an average of 2.2 million vaccinations are being given out every single day in this country. and we've got to remember, all of this is happening just a year after the country first shut down. i want to start with my colleague peter alexander at the white house. peter, what is the administration doing to mark this one-year anniversary? >> yeah, that anniversary, of course, a somber one this thursday, now 48 hours away, and we at nbc news can now confirm president biden will be delivering his first primetime address at 8:00 p.m. eastern time this thursday to commemorate the day that the outbreak, the coronavirus outbreak was first declared a pandemic. jen psaki the press secretary detailing the tremendous loss, more than 525,000 americans who have now lost their lives in the course of that time saying the president will discuss the sacrifices by so many americans, the grave loss suffered by families and communities. but also what americans are doing to fight back against this and the role they will play in beating this virus and returning our lives to normal in the future. it's likely that on friday of this week president biden, assuming the house does pass the covid relief bill today, that the president would be able to sign that on friday. there are discussions about what type of event might surround that signing ceremony, perhaps weather permitting one outside on the south lawn. today joe biden is going to make the case, though, for that relief bill. he heads this morning just shy of noon to a business in this area that benefitted from the payment protection program, the ppp program, joe biden going there today and stephanie tomorrow he will host leaders from merck and johnson & johnson, of course those two companies teaming up to mass produce the j&j vaccine, the one-shot vaccine that was recently approved. steph? >> peter, thanks. i want to dig deeper on all of this and welcome back dr. matt mccarthy. he was on this show last february, one of the first people to join us talking covid and he warned us that this pandemic was something we needed to be very concerned about, especially at a time when we had government leaders saying it was no big deal. he's a doctor at new york presbyterian hospital and the author of the book -- it's so good to see you again because we're finally getting some good news. how do you take these cdc recommendations that we can now hug, kiss grandparents, grandchildren? >> this is outstanding news, for so long the focus has been on what we can't do after vaccination and now we're finally getting to what we can do and it's only going to be more and more things we can do. we've got 10% of the population vaccinated right now so that means we can do a few things. once we get to 20% or 30% we're going to be able to do more and more, and this is only going in the right direction. you know, the fact that the vaccinations are getting rolled out is great news. we're not over the hump yet. cases are still really high. we still have a lot of children who aren't in classrooms but the vaccination news is really a bright spot in what has been an otherwise really dark, dark year. >> i'm going to assume that you are vaccinated. are you changing your behavior based on these guidelines? >> i am vaccinated. i got two doses of the moderna vaccine. i still am very careful about what i do because i don't want to pick up this virus and spread it to somebody who's not vaccinated. but when i am at home with my wife who's also vaccinated we're not wearing masks. so there are little things that are starting to creep out, the way the flowers are starting to peek out in the spring, i'm starting to peek out once in a while and i'm going to be doing more and more of that as we move forward. so great news. i want to commend the cdc here, what we're seeing is real leadership where they are coming out with clear guidelines that everyone can understand that are based in science and i think this is a huge step forward for the cdc to just be back to where they were, this place of prominence where we can trust them and we can all be on the same page of what we can and can't do. so great news for all of us. >> i mentioned it a moment ago. you were one of the first people to treat this as a major threat, at least before anyone else i know. where are we now? some people say things are on the fast track to normalcy. you're saying, you know, that the flowers are coming out. how concerned are you about a fourth wave? >> well, you know, this is what everyone's talking about are these variants and we've come to start calling them scareiants. the coverage of these don't always reflect what we've seen in the clinic or in practice. what we are seeing is that some of these variants can evade antibodies which is concerning but they're not evading t cells, they're not evading the full complement of immune responses to our vaccine. i am confident that these vaccines are going to work and that we are going to keep seeing progress. we've got to get people vaccinated across all age groups and then we can start thinking about getting back to normal life but overall this is all going in the right direction. i'm not worried that we're going to have a major fourth surge because of some sort of escape mutations or variants that are going to get around the vaccines. these vaccines work and i strongly encourage people to jump at the chance to get any one of the three that are authorized. moderna, pfizer or johnson & johnson. these are excellent vaccines that will provide meaningful protection so that you can start doing more things with your family, friends and people you don't even know. >> on monday the cdc issued a study saying nearly 80% of the people who are hospitalized or died from covid were overweight or obese. is that what you've been seeing? >> well, you know, we see people from really all demographics. but clearly people who are older, people who are obese, absolutely these are risk factors. you know, i think this is a wake-up call for a lot of people. and one of the things we've seen is that countries are having different responses, that there are countries that have not been hit as hard as the united states. one of the theories is that our median age is higher than some of those countries and then the other thought is that we have more medical conditions, more comorbidities. so, you know, i think it's a wake-up call for everyone that, you know, you put yourself at risk if you are obese. so absolutely, this is part of the puzzle. >> as someone who saw this coming, then watched it kill half a million americans, what has the last year been like for you personally? >> it's been hell. you know, i -- thank you for having me on the show. you are the first one to let me come on and talk about the testing issue. and the reason i knew about that was i had just finished writing a book about the need for testing to detect new pathogens and what we saw was there was this talk about vaccines and therapeutic and i came on and said and said wait a minute we can't even identify this. what happened after i was on your show is that people started reaching out to me, congressmen on both sides of the aisle who said what you are saying dr. mccarthy is very different than what we are hearing and you seem to know what you're talking about. please give us a heads up of what's coming. i don't think anyone could have predicted the devastation that we ended up seeing. it has been a brutal year but it's finally starting to turn the corner. and so i go into work enthusiastic and optimistic because of these bright spots. >> well, i appreciate you joining us this morning, and always trying to make us safer and a little smarter. >> thank you. >> for you at home tune in tomorrow night to lives well lived as nicolle wallace hosts a special hour dedicated to honoring covid-19 victims and their families tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. eastern then thursday chris hayes hosts all in america, the year we meet again. live from the lincoln memorial he will have reports from around the country looking at the last year and hopefully a look ahead. that is also at 8:00 p.m. eastern right here on msnbc. we've got to turn now to minneapolis, minnesota where court is resuming right now in the trial of derek chauvin, the former police officer charged with killing george floyd. jury selection was suspended yesterday but it is set to start again in one hour. our own shaquille brewster is there. why was it suspended? >> we know court is back in session this morning. you can see the live pictures as that's taking place and we know jury selection is set to begin in just about an hour. it was suspended yesterday amid legal wrangling over whether or not this trial can even continue as an appeals court reviews whether or not the state can add that third degree murder charge which is something they've been pushing for and that was dismissed by the trial judge back in october. the judge is saying he's going to go forward with these pre-trial proceedings as they're impanelling a jury unless another court, a higher court tells him that he needs to stop. and that's the process that you're seeing right now. so we will be seeing jury selection. stephanie, this will be somewhat of a slow process, just yesterday alone the defense and the prosecution agreed to strike 16 jurors based on this juror questionnaire that they're getting. so before the potential jurors even go into the courtroom they have about a 14-page questionnaire that they fill out asking them their knowledge of the case, asking them their media habits and their contacts with law enforcement while fwht -- in the jury room or in the courtroom. each side will get to question the jurors and potentially strike or allow that juror to pass through. that process will take place day after day until the jury of 12 is seated and four alternates and both sides have to agree to that. that's what we'll start to see later today, steph. >> we also learned a little bit more about derek chauvin's defense. what did you learn? >> reporter: yeah, we got a hint of it yesterday in the courtroom as eric nelson, chauvin's attorney, started to introduce some more evidence or argued for introducing more evidence. he said that the attorneys found in the back of a squad car essentially some chewed up pills, some controlled substances that had george floyd's dna on it, that was a hint of what could be an argument that we'll hear later in this process. that was also a moment that you saw george floyd's sister, the only family member who was allowed in the courtroom yesterday, actually leave the courtroom. our colleague gabe gutierrez asked her about that moment. listen to what she said. >> you walked out briefly. >> i did. i did. because i needed to take a breath. i didn't like the things that they were saying. he was bringing up things that did not matter. what we are here for is justice. that's what we need, justice. >> reporter: so if anyone's keeping an eye on the trial right now we know that they are going through some more motions and then in about an hour that's when the start of that jury questioning process will begin. stephanie? >> shaq, thank you. let's bring in brittany cunningham, a former member of president obama's 21st century policing task force, can you talk to us, brittany, about the importance of this trial as it relates to the overall push for police reform? >> well, obviously this is a trial that people are watching with baited breath. so many people that had never been a part of a movement at all. let alone a movement for racial justice, were moved by what happened to george floyd. they were convicted in their spirits by seeing repeated video of a man with a knee on his neck for 8:46, and several police officers standing by or participating in his death. they were moved when they heard him cry out for his mother. when they saw the images you're seeing here as a brother, as a son, as a friend. and that means that this entire country really this entire world is paying attention to what happens in this trial for two reasons. number one, because it will tell us about whether or not america has truly done any of the reckoning that we continue to discuss this summer. and number two, to figure out if america is finally ready to begin, and i stress begin, turning the corner on its ugly past. you cannot disassociate -- continue to face from the racist past and history of this country. in order for us to actually turn a corner, at the very least, the accountability for public servants who take the lives of our neighbors and our loved ones must be had. >> you said the other day that we should not confuse justice and accountability. what does that mean? >> it means very simply that the only just outcome here would be a living, breathing george floyd and once he died, once he took his last breath it was impossible for us to actually achieve justice later. what it truly would mean for us to create a more just world in the name and spirit of george floyd would not simply be to expect accountability from a criminal legal system that convicts fewer than 1% of the officers that ever kill a black person. it would actually be to prevent the next george floyd, to prevent the next breonna taylor or tony mcdade, to ensure that black folks in this country are actually respected for our full humanity and allowed not just to survive but thrive. so we have to make sure that our work, our efforts don't just end at a courthouse. we're never going to find justice in those courts that don't see us as fully human. we have to continue doing this work until we get to the place where we no longer live in a country or a world where the police kill people. it's that simple. >> brittany, always good to have you here, thanks for joining us. brittany packnett cunningham. there's nearly $170 billion dedicated to schools in this covid relief bill. we're going to dig into specifically how this money can and needs to be used to get our children back in classrooms. as we learned just how many kids have stopped logging in to virtual school entirely. they are not even going to school. plus, the major recommendations out in a new report about security needed at the u.s. capitol. and we're going to take you back to the front lines of the pandemic. one year later. one nurse that we met a year ago shows us how covid has changed her life, and her hospital. d bea friday night ♪ ♪ a pair of jeans that fit just right ♪ ♪ and the radio up ♪ get 5 boneless wings for $1 with any handcrafted burger. only at applebee's. starting today, nobody has to settle for less than the very best. because only verizon gives you 5g from america's most reliable network at no extra cost. and more of the entertainment you love like apple music. and the beautiful iphone 12 on us when you buy one. only from verizon. ♪ ♪ be right back. with moderate to severe crohn's disease, i was there, just not always where i needed to be. is she alright?

>> reporter: this is an analog 20th century of engrossing this bill, literally printing it out and going line by line to make sure the changes senators think they made in the legislative language in the process of amending it are actually the changes they made. only then can the bill be sent to the house for them to take consideration of it with new changes and voting on it. speaker pelosi says she expects the vote should be no later than form. it could be as early as today. but we are literally waiting for staffers to go through this pain staking process to make sure that what they think is actually in the bill before the house can vote on it. >> garrett, thank you, we're going to stay on you for days on this. people want to know when they're getting this support. one part of this bill that could be huge for families and kids across this country when the money rolls out, it is the much needed funding for schools, a total of $168 billion will be going to schools, $128 billion of that will go k-12, that will most likely be used to transition kids back into safe in-person learning. i certainly hope so. $40 billion to go to higher education, half of those funds are going to be going to students who need emergency financial aid. joining me now to discuss all of this, shale -- this is a hard one for me. shale -- i'm going to -- >> palo -- >> that's a mouthful for me. former deputy chancellor for new york public schools. and nick moseby, nick, i have to go to you first, i've been hearing this number floating around that 61% of high school freshman in baltimore city public schools aren't even logging into virtual school anymore. is that true and if so what in the world are you going to do about it? >> well, chronically absent. which means that their participation isn't consistent. i think it's a curve of more than 10%. we know that that number is real and we know it's a problem. many of our young folks are dealing and grappling with the trauma that's affected. losing family members, parents being unemployed. kind of still trying to be strong stewards in their household and many of them are at work unfortunately, amazon or fast food restaurants. i think it's critically important for our kids to return back to school but we need radical speeching transformative type of solutions, particularly for our older students or i'm in fear we will never, ever get them back. in the city of baltimore past week and a half we've had five young folks under the age of 17 shot in our streets. we can focus on the health disparities and what covid-19 is going to play on us this but the residual affects, the trauma it has brought is really concerning to me and i think that that's where we need to take a step back and focus on how we can provide transformative solutions for our young folks. >> shale, it's not just about better ventilation in schools. we've got students that to nick's point could be lost forever. $168 billion is a lot of money. i know you know the new york city school system better than anyone. is it enough to solve for this? this is an absolute disaster. >> i agree and i think the key here is going to be trust. we have to build enough trust with our parents and our educators to bring everyone back as fast as we possibly can and the key to that trust is going to be what the biden administration has managed to pass through congress and what they're doing around vaccines. this is a real turning point. we've been debating for months in many parts of the country. is it safe to bring kids into school? and that has been a valid debate but we need to move past that now. we have the power to get every single school staffer, every single teacher vaccinated this month. as of yesterday every single state in the country has prioritized that and so that changes everything because it means that the adults working in school who are the most likely to spread the virus, and the most vulnerable are no longer going to be vulnerable. and so we can reopen quickly and i think our goal, the president's goal of end of april is actually a real goal that we should all be fighting towards as hard as we can. and it's going to take a series of steps that really convince everyone that when kids come back it's safe because otherwise families won't bring their kids back to school. so we need to institute weekly testing in our schools. this is something that the rockefeller foundation has recommended to the president and the money is there in this bill. that means that we will catch cases of covid coming into school much more easily than we've been able to given so many children are asymptomatic. and this money will allow us to put hepa machines in each classroom, air filtration devices that can improve the ventilation. once those things are in place with the vaccinations we need to run as fast as we can in our school districts to share those plans with families and make sure that we get kids back in school this spring. there's still a few months left in the school year. we can't wait until this fall to bring everyone back. >> okay, but nick i'm going to venture that you think this is more than trust, more than making schools have better ventilation, for those older kids they now have jobs, or we don't know where they are. what's it going to take to not just get them back but to solve for all that was just lost? >> i think it's critical for us to, again, think as radical and be as flexible as possible. >> what does that look like? >> as it relates to the operations, night school, you know working with large employers like amazon. i mean the fact that they are hiring our young kids who aren't going to school, you know amazon and other corporations should be committed to ensuring that folks are graduating from high school. providing weekend type of programs, providing other work study type of initiatives. but again, it's not just with making after money for our young folks but it's also the social/emotional aspect this time as played on them. i think that if we're serious about education we're going to have to look at a way of providing them with assessments to bring them back in, to try to understand and know where the learning loss is and meet their needs at the door. we know in urban settings like baltimore, you know, the students who -- to social workers, student to psychiatrist, student to counselor ratio is a problem. those are other things that we have to seriously address right away, or again, i am very concerned that we will never, ever get a generation of a lot of kids back into the school system. we know that young folks who graduate from high school are more likely to go into college and be productive citizens. that's what we should be focusing on. returning them back to school but meeting them where their needs are based off of what the pandemic has created for them. >> nick, shael, thank you both for joining us. that brings up a great point if these companies like amazon are hiring 15, 16-year-old kids think about what you are going to do to help get them back in school. thank you both. coming up next, a record number of migrant children being held in jail-like facilities right now, longer than is legally allowed. you've got to hear about this. what is going on at our border?

>> yeah, that's right. so this is the first step for all immigrants, regardless of their age, border patrol processing facilities. they are meant -- and they were built originally when most of the immigration was coming from adults, single adults, mainly men from mexico. now we're finding families and these unaccompanied children from central america who are coming across the border and not able to get the care they need in these facilities. the legal limit put in place by a judge is 72 hours. but what happens is when the next step in the process, health and human services, becomes overcrowded and as jen psaki just pointed out a lot of that has to do with the reduced capacity under covid the border patrol processing facilities get overcrowded. we saw it in 2019 under trump when they didn't increase their capacity enough when there was a surge under that administration and we saw children sleeping on concrete, not able to get showers or clean drinking water. it's a real crisis and it's something the biden administration is really going to be tested on right now. >> what's the reason for this spike? >> well, a big part of this, stephanie, is that they ended the policy of immediately expelling unaccompanied migrant children. the trump administration was saying that under title 42, that's an authority the cdc uses during a pandemic to send migrants back, they had said we're not going to apply that to unaccompanied migrant children, we are going to be more humane, take them in, and allow them to stay here while they claim asylum and try to reunite with family and take care of them here. as a result not sending them back and many children desperate to get in for many months there is an influx. we also know there are a lot of reasons why people are leaving central america. there is famine. there have been natural disasters, there is violence many of these people are fleeing. >> is there any reason to believe that the biden administration has a new plan to start to handle this in a different way? because based on your reporting it doesn't look like the number of people coming our way is going to go down. >> well, that's absolutely right. i mean, ha they need to do is what jen psaki laid out and try to get more room in health and human services. there was actually a hint at something they're working on, in the interview that secretary mayorkas gave to jacob soboroff, where he talked about getting people in those border patrol processing facilities to immediately get those children to relatives and sponsors who can take care of them. they could by pass a large part of this system and having to go through that period with health and human services and go directly in to caring homes. and that would allow the administration to really get around this capacity issue. >> julia, thank you so much, an important story. we're going to stay on it. coming up next, how about this quote?

>> i agree with the report heartily. i do think we need the mounted horses for crowd control. i do think we need the dogs for crowd control. i also am glad to hear said that the not needing to go to the police board. i think that's one of the things that they really should think about that the chief of the police department runs the police department, not the police board. >> frank, you say we need a quick reaction force that can respond to more than just the capitol. given how big of a threat we're facing why wouldn't we have a force that could also respond to the supreme court, the doj, the treasury building? i mean, these are our most important buildings. it seems like common sense. >> yeah, there's more in this report than meets the eye. by virtue of the recommendations and findings we know now what's not currently in place. we know that we don't have a quick reaction force to respond to similar acts of violence against our iconic symbols, doj, treasury, supreme court. this could all happen. it's within the realm of imagination yet we would see a similar debacle occurring and playing out with delays and who's in charge. this has to get fixed and the general offers several recommendations. one of which i really like, which is to create a hybrid force, maybe it's a number of federal agencies plus district of columbia authorities, capitol police, get them on a team that's permanent and able to respond in two minutes to any large angry mob that threatens our democracy. >> butch, what were some of the biggest shortcomings you saw during your time as a capitol police officer? >> well as a capitol police officer what i -- on my -- when i was capitol police we worked together with metropolitan, we worked together with park police. i'm not seeing that now. also if you remember when they had the chief and captain mendoza, captain mendoza said she didn't report until 3:00. you have to have everybody report at the same time when you're expecting a demonstration to have that magnitude. that i did not see. they treated it almost like it was a regular day. when i was on the police department we had to be -- everybody had to be to work at the same time. we had a line, outer perimeter and inner perimeter. i didn't see none of that on january the 6th. >> frank, i want to talk about beefing up staffing. you say a deeper dive into who gets to be on this team will be needed. what do you mean by that? >> yeah, look, the report speaks volumes about the inadequacy of resources right now. let's focus on this. there are currently over 200 vacancies unfilled on the capitol police force plus the general says you need another almost 800 to really secure the capitol. we're talking about needing a thousand more people to protect the symbol of our democracy and we need to vet those people as they're hired like we've never done before because of concerns of violent extremism, white supremacy that are permeating some police departments. we've got to get the right people and we've got to get all the people needed to secure that building and the capitol region. >> frank, how confident are you that these recommendations in the report are actually going to get implemented? >> i'm really disturbed by, already, the political talk around general honoray, was he the right guy? let's focus on the simple recommendations here and get this done. we've politicized the pandemic. we can't politicize security of our democracy and the symbols of it. i lack confidence that all of this will get done. meanwhile you're likely to hear one side of the aisle keep complaining about the presence of national guard while they could be fixing this by filling police vacancies. >> butch, what's the most important thing that needs to happen right now? >> i think the most important thing is congress must be accountable to the point where they caused some of the friction that happened january the 6th and members must stop saying that there was not a legit vote on president biden unless they have proof. and until then they are part of the problem. >> all right then, butch, frank, thank you both so much for joining us and thank you for all that you have always done to protect our country. moving on, a story you do not want to miss, the supreme court rejected the last, the last of former president trump's election challenges. this final ruling upholding wisconsin's handling of mail-in ballots. the former president had argued election officials were wrong in allowing voters to submit ballots using drop boxes saying it circumvented voter id requirements. in an unsigned order the supreme court declined to hear trump's appeal. to be clear courts across the country, including the supreme court, have said now officially over 60 times that there were no signs of widespread voter fraud and that joe biden won the presidential election. coming up next i will check back in with a nurse who took us to the front lines in the early days of this pandemic. >> we're hanging on with everything we've got right now. i think that we are really early on in this and i'm hoping, i'm hoping that over the next week we'll start to see a larger number of people getting better and leaving the hospital. >> what is it like in her hospital right now? what's it like in her life one year later into this fight. this is the sound of better breathing. fasenra is a different kind of asthma medication. it's not a steroid or inhaler. fasenra is an add-on treatment for asthma driven by eosinophils. it's one maintenance dose every 8 weeks. it helps prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and lower use of oral steroids. nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. fasenra is designed to target and remove them. fasenra is not a rescue medication or for other eosinophilic conditions. fasenra may cause allergic reactions. get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. don't stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection or your asthma worsens. headache and sore throat may occur. this is the sound of fasenra. ask your doctor about fasenra. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. nicorette® knows, quitting smoking is freaking hard. you get advice like: try hypnosis... or... quit cold turkey are you kidding me?! instead, start small. with nicorette®. which can lead to something big. start stopping with nicorette® i'm jayson tatum. check out my subway sub with delicious turkey and crispy bacon. i'm draymond green. with my subway sub with tender steak and melty cheese. my sub will help you put points on the board, unlike some other subs. why would you say that, jayson?

neutrogena® but i've got some good news. the number of people fully vaccinated in the u.s. is higher than the number of known covid cases since it started spreading here. my next guest has been battling the virus on the front lines since the very beginning and here is how she described her patients when she first joined us last year. >> they are absolutely alone. it's heart breaking as a nurse to know that you are that person's everything and sometimes in their last moments. the weight of trying to fill the shoes of the people who can't be there is really heavy. >> i want to bring in a hero of mine throughout this last year, maureen who is a nurse at beaumont hospital in fairmont hills, michigan. maureen, good to see you. good to see you on a positive day. back then you and i were talking a lot about people dying without their loved ones. you were the last person near them and you could barely be near some of your patients. right now there's only a handful of patients in the hospital and visitors are allowed in again. what's it like? how relieved are you? >> hi, stephanie. it's good to be back. i can't believe it's been a year. i would say the hospital right now feels probably the most normal it has felt in a very long time. it is so exciting to see families in our halls and at bedside. it's such a relief to be able to include them in care of their loved one and in just that whole process from -- from er to when they get to go home. >> but the struggle is far from over. you used to work in the icu, but now you're in the inpatient rehab wing to help people to get strong enough after they go through covid. there is still a lot of people out there who say, covid, it's like the flu. it's far from the flu. can you help us understand the challenges your covid patients are facing? >> sure. i think that, you know, inpatient rehab is a really amazing place to help people overcoming all kinds of debility, covid is one of those that we have seen newly over the last year and those patients really by the time they get to us and are headed home are facing a lot of -- just a lot of issues that they didn't have before. you know, they're very weak. sometimes there are a lot of lingering respiratory issues, cardiac issues and inflammatory issues that take a long time to subside. so people are still needing a lot of help to get stronger and to reacclimate to life and be able to be successful going home. >> is that just older patients or younger patients, too? >> i think that that -- it varies. i think one of the most baffling things that we have seen with covid is that it affects people so differently regardless of age. there are definitely risk factors and there are definitely people who tend to do better and people who tend to get hit harder, but i don't think that that's an all-inclusive or definitive disease process. i think covid keeps us guessing and we have patients young and old who can have residual side effects afterwards. absolutely. >> i have to tell you i have two vaccinated parents, i'm very excited about the new cdc guidelines allowing people to see their parents, their grandparents. how are you personally approaching these changes? i know you've got three young kids and family around. >> i mean, it's super exciting. you know, my dad is vaccinated, both my mom and my mother-in-law go to get vaccinated today, my other in-laws are getting vaccinated -- i know -- their first dose this friday. it's super exciting. i think the relief that comes with that is palpable. no matter who i talk to, when their loved ones, when they know that they are on the other side of those vaccinations, it's an amazing amount of relief. a little bit of freedom. and that's exciting. >> this has been an enormous undertaking for you. when you are on the front lines it means your kids are, too. what you've been through in the last year, would you do it again? and are you optimistic about the future? >> so that's a question i feel like i've gotten kind of a lot recently and i absolutely wholeheartedly would say that i don't regret not one part of this past year. i think nursing as a profession is so amazing at baseline, but i think that over the course of this pandemic they have really shown, they delivered extraordinary care in the most challenging of circumstances and to be able to walk through that with some of the most intelligent and compassionate human beings on the planet, i would do it over and over again in a heartbeat. and to be able to minister to people and be at their bed sides when they needed somebody, again, i think i can stand with all of my colleagues and say this is what we're here for and we would all do it again. >> it's not a they, it's a we, girl. you are the one doing it every day and for that we, me, i am truly grateful. maureen, always good to see you. thank you for everything that you do. send my best to your husband ands kids. >> it's his birthday tomorrow. >> it's his birthday tomorrow? >> it sure is. >> well, then i hope you get the day off and i hope you get to celebrate. all right. happy birthday to him. thank you for watching this hour, i am stephanie ruhle. hallie jackson picks up coverage next. tephanie rleuh hallie jackson picks up coverage next m from colorado. i've been married to my high school sweetheart for 35 years. i'm a mother of four-- always busy. i was starting to feel a little foggy. just didn't feel like things were as sharp as i knew they once were. i heard about prevagen and then i started taking it about two years now. started noticing things a little sharper, a little clearer. i feel like it's kept me on my game. i'm able to remember things. i'd say give it a try. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. sure, your health insurance tells you to see a doctor but, um, look around. these days it's not that easy. you're telling me. but humana helps make it easy. human care gives you tons of ways to talk to your doctor: phone, computer, in person, or tablet. hey jean! hi! this is just a quick follow up. your numbers are looking great. you don't even have to put on shoes. ooo! easy peasy. you like that, huh?
