here in the united states even though there is some immunity involved with getting over covid or having a testing option. germany calls that the 3g s. the third is a rapid test. a rapid test may be the most predictive of all that you re not contagious or infectious but germany, as you know, under the new incoming chancellor may be about to go to a more superimposed vaccine mandate and lockdown. so these are shifting terrains, but i think the question is how do you get people to comply, how do you get people comfortable without them quitting their jobs. mike: we have a reporting on a new variant out of south africa, concerns about it spreading, hitting young people. what do know about it, how concerned are you? i ve said before i m not a was concerned about these variantses of concern, but these this one, b11529, does concern me. i ll tell you why. it s got 32 mutations in the protein which is how the virus spreads, and in the province around johannesburg, there s
check. he got a gun because the background check was incomplete. and the point is not only that specific instances would have been prevented but simply, that america can be made safer by keeping this wash of weapons out of the hands of dangerous people. right now, it s a convicted felon can t have a weapon. 1529 people deemed ineligible bought guns, 15,729 people who were effect ineligible to buy a weapon and you existing law. yesterday, ohio governor john kasich running for the presidency on the republican side of the aisle said this. you can strip away were all the guns but the people who are going to commit crimes or have problems are always going to have a gun. doesn t he make a valid point? to guns right now is much too s-
air traffic controllers at times using the wrong flight number, try and guide the plane to an airport. cactus 1529. if we can get you, do you want to try to land runway 137? we re unable. we may end up in the hudson. 1549, it s going to be less traffic to runway 31. unable. just north of the george washington bridge, the captain aligns the airbus a-320 with the hudson river. he passes the bridge just to the east and continues due south. i looked out the window, saw we were actually below the rooftops of manhattan. i said, this is not a good sign, we re not making newark. did sully look at you and say we re going in the water, or did you both come to the realization that s where this was going? i think it was more it was just the only option we had. there was no we weren t going to make it to an airport. and that was the only open spot that we saw. if a pilot is forced to ditch, the faa has recommendations for how to do
