In the depths. Or a maybe in the shallows. This is boom bust the one business show you cant afford to miss im fair montana and washington coming up protests across the United States lead to unrest and in storage are all in response to the death of george floyd will discuss Police Brutality and income inequality drug makers are focused on a clown a virus vaccine. When will it be ready and how soon is too soon we have a director who specializes in vaccine to discuss we have a show for you today so lets go and dive right in. Chaos continues in major cities across the United States over the last few days fueling protests went on following the killing of george Floyd AtlantaLos Angeles Chicago philadelphia minneapolis and washington d. C. Were among some of the cities that imposed curfews still protests continued protests that began peacefully ended in may 1 windows were smashed buildings were vandalized and Police Vehicles were set on fire stores and even Small Businesses were looted a number of retailers including target c. V. S. And walmart all temporarily closed some of its stores are cross the country nearly 5000 National Guard soldiers and airmen were deployed in 15 states and in washington d. C. And more than 4000 protests were arrested actually banks is reporting from minneapolis. I didnt hear any of this will be sure unfortunately it was told by all concerned to show that the model that we can go to day break down there are about 50 to 75 people all who are looking down flower and something out of the right and i think its only for those who knew him and they think that he was clearly a good part of my life actually he still got a good 5 letters and try to turn to me and i want to see the atmosphere right now is a little different from what it was a lot of night i know there are people there just taking the picture and Walking Around mass while at least trying to remember mr george leave a light bulb you know its pretty hard to imagine any way that they could be when you got what was it 90 minutes of video watching them stand around while the guy slowly dies i mean come on you know i was here are around in that circle and not a lot of follow real words it was her you know there were protesters were you know right and completely illegal the best lead to describe what is happening here the sort of the city were here in this can or has always been. An atmosphere of respect and safety and purpose. The rest of inland so much. And you know thats that element that everybody talks about of the people counted for a small town or a little. Bit but this corner has been you know many more protests are scheduled for the rest of the day has protesters say they wont stop until just what is served now would it not look like it will protesters saying they wont stop until the very meaning 3 officers are charged and convicted and they still will stop and tell officer show that theyre interviewing murder charges is changing to the 1st degree im not really big on importing any apple. For more on the ongoing protests were joined by watching the hawks host. You for being with us today you can see the frustration in these protesters it stems not only from Racial Disparities but also from the criminal Justice System right its healed by the economic inequality thats felt more even now more so by the pandemic what are some Near Term Solutions that we can we can look for to ease some of these potential burdens on the on the Health Care System and what do you brought that up there because one of the things i think is missing in a lot of the media conversation about the protests is that this is still going on during kobe 19 this is still going on where there are some stay at home waters particularly in areas that have large minority populations because blacks and latinos tend to contract the virus the fastest they also tend to die from it at the highest rates some of the things i think in the short term that we could do one is make sure that for those who are still working that that p. P. Equipment is available we know that across america there are Grocery Stores drug stores things that we consider a part of our daily lives these are required jobs positions that individuals have to take part in but all of those jobs arent requiring and dont necessarily have the people equipment that is needed for individuals to perform their jobs at the function they need to and still be safe one of the other things i think that we need to do is make sure that there is more funds going out to the families themselves we know that that 12 100. 00 that was issued from congress a while ago doesnt mean anything today the 1st of the month is today we know that there are many people who are still barely making ends meet who dont have enough to cover their rent for the next 2 or 3 months bugs who even before the pandemic hit were making barely a minimum wage and trying to raise families off of that as well were also looking at the fact that a lot of those families have their young people at home they dont know when school is going to be opened again and daycares are shut down as well so i think that there needs to be some bit of leverage in terms of childcare assistance as well and a plan for what that actually means for families who have to go to work every day but also still have Young Children at home and im glad you brought up that angle of the Unemployment Rate that were looking at as it is we are. You know that the black community suffers from a higher Unemployment Rate than than whites and even hispanics u. S. Unemployment rate hit 14 point one percent in april the coronavirus really is hitting an Unemployment Rate its likely to reach more than 20 percent were still waiting on the may numbers that come out at the end of the week lets lets look at the numbers here though for black americans that number reach 16. 7 Percent Congress they may extend unemployment increase but is this a type of strain that really could catalyze this some form of significant policy change that we need like a universal basic income for for example absolutely just a few months ago everybody thought that youd be i with some crazy idea not really taking into account that we might have a pandemic or something that would have quit our economy the way it has but to be fair the issues associated with black unemployment as well as that of latinos are things that weve dealt with across this country for a very long time the Unemployment Rates are exacerbated by what were seeing with the pandemic but when it comes to having worker safety when it comes to having wages that actually are a lot of for you to raise a family every day thats something that black communities and latino communities have been fighting for decades at this point i think that you guy or a i dont think that this administration the Top Administration is going to do anything with that with the term but i think that there is something that needs to be done and we will see it in terms of some level of Financial Security for individuals how much thats going to be and how many months were going to see it happen i think its still up in the air but its an Election Year so i dont want to say that theyre not going to do anything were still waiting on a possible more stimulus we have a little over a minute left but i do want to ask you this whats next these protests arent going anywhere whats next more amplification one thing that we have learned over time is that protests work and protests interestingly enough protests that have a certain element of violence are ones that get people to move weve seen this throughout history we saw with stonewall with the old g. B. Team movement weve seen it with how our nation actually became america and i think that you know the sustained pro. Tests across multiple cities are going to really push people to understand that there is a level of African American when it comes to just being upset that the American Dream has been defrauded from black people but in addition to that calling on our nation leaders as well as state and local leaders to actually stand up and do something about it were still waiting to hear publicly from President Donald Trump who hasnt come out yet i know that theyre saying that he has hes tweeted out a few times but thats simply not enough for the American People and this is an issue that we know both the White Community of the black community and Hispanic Community everyone recognizes is an issue i mean should cross a host of watching the hawks thank you so much for your time thank you. The chrono virus has infected more than 6200000 people globally a race for a vaccine continues as the lilly reported it started an early stage trial to test its potential treatment for kovan 19 c n b c explain the treatment is an antibody directed against the spike shaped protein structures of the virus and its designed to block it from locking on to human cells thus neutralizing the virus will gilliatt announced results from its phase 3 trial of does appear on some more moderate patients that were hospitalized with kovan 19 results previously released did show the drug used on more severe patients but on day 11 a higher number of patients in the 5 day treatment achieved improvement under the clinical status while those receiving the 10 day treatment of brown does appear were also favorable but not yet reaching statistical significance well for more im joined by dr paul offit director of the Vaccine Education Center at Childrens Hospital of philadelphia dr thank you for joining us today. There is a lot of competition on this hunt for a vaccine we have several drug makers theyre working on developing this vaccine are we beginning to see these promising results from these ongoing trials. We dont know yet i mean the its too early to tell is the way that youll be able to pauls when you finally get these 3 which are these large will spend it and seed will control which all will be about 20000 people in the backseat 10000 people in cebu then and only then will we know whether these facts really are safe and. Well im not thats a problem we have so Many Companies drug makers trying to push it many are worried that a 2nd wave will come especially with the reopening of the economy and now these protests across the u. S. These companies are working ls hours they seem to have a lot of time explain the importance of testing these axioms and really ensuring that theres safety in these candidates who are participating in these trials. To remember when these vaccines will end and we can make a successful vaccine theres no doubt in my mind the virus is generally stable its not like it when were going to have to immunize their year we know the protein were interested in its that protein that emanates from the surface of the parts of what spike protein if you can make in a part of the tank against these all thats good but this process has to play out the way it always plays out which is with the base free trial and were getting there i mean its a little frustrating this kind of science by press release so you dont really know where we stand youre not going to know where we stand here we do these things we tell people based on i think what we what why we have a vaccine by the middle of next year maybe earlier but we have to let this process play out because youre right most of the people are going to get this vaccine are healthy young people those are not the people like not in this virus that we have to hold to i stand youre safe. Heres my question if it is released by the middle of next year i know oftentimes vaccines take years of testing thats a very much accelerated what are some of the ramifications are we can see are will it be too late. Well you know you when you do if you test the vaccine same tens of thousands of people relationship or preapproval thats not tens of millions of people so you may find out theres a rare safety issue you know youre probably not going to know about how Long Duration of immunity lasts until this vaccine has already been out there for a couple of years but again you can be fairly confident that the vaccine doesnt have uncommon side of the problems and pretty confident that it works and works well for its approved so i think we can at that scientists are worried that with the decline of these new chrono virus cases and even lower level transmissions that it it is going to be harder to then test the effectiveness of these potential vaccines do you suppose that a rise in transmission rates from nationwide protests for example could actually provide these unforseen opportunities to then test the efficiency of these new vaccines its possible most of the protests the outside were your were less likely to transmit than if the protests were currently in a smaller clean clothes space but i think the of the goal of these trials going to be to try and do the myriads where there are there is either one going transmission or theres a prediction of an outbreak not only United States but in the world so i do think we will be able to figure that out but youre right you have to get a little maki to make sure that you have enough case that youre conceivable which you can tell whether the vaccine really was affected when some of these drug makers are going as far as to say that theyre going to need to in fact Healthy Volunteers with the virus in order to really produce the vaccine could this idea really pose to many of the challenges to be carried out. You know i dont think its really just an ethical problem i think is the question is will it really speed up the the the making of this vaccine its not as easy to do the challenge that is it as you might think you have to make sure you have the dose right you have to make sure that it really mimics the clinical situation the virus that youre going to be inoculated is going up in a laboratory and does that mean that exactly whats going on with the virus thats circulating its not quite as easy to me plus that you mention its not really a rescue drug if youre inoculate people with a potentially fatal virus so i dont think its going to actually speed up the process and china has has had a little bit of a i guess you can say as a more more information on it because they were the 1st to have the chronic virus they too are working on on a chronic i assess vaccine do you see them trying to find are actually finding a vaccine and manufacturing it before the United States or even any other country. Its possible they were actually the 1st to publish a paper in a medical or scientific journal lancet going through what theyre up there there are times works with the socalled replication effect a common cold virus into which they genetically engineer the gene that encodes for that who are service wrote the the data are all that promising correctly but again i think were going to learn a lot over the next year and there has never been more interest more money or more expertise in developing a vaccine in the history of mankind in this one. Well we definitely are more advanced technology and we have the medical scientists who are working on this vaccine for endless hours and hopefully it wont be too long before we can find one dr paul offit thank you so much for your time director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Childrens Hospital of philadelphia.
