About personal issues, things that were dealing with, and you know, so dont want to give it away, but check it out. Thankful for my long haul syndrome, i dont even remember the handoff. I dont even remember what i said. Honestly, though, this is honesty. When you meet especially when we were in our big studios, the number of people that we would meet on a daily basis and aye been doing two hours for, what, five, six, seven years, i forget how long. Two hours a night, and i dont mean to be rude. People would say hey, do you remember i was on your show and i would go, oh, yeah, i remember. And then theyd have to remind me, prompt me, oh, now i remember. I was interviewing maybe 20 people a night at one point, and so, you know, theres only so much information that can be held up in this little tiny you know, i think its interesting Thank God you and i dont really think about what we do what we do. We do it. We think about what we say, but we dont think about what its going to mean that we
And amanda carpenter. Good to see you, john. President biden announcing new vaccine mandates that could affect 100 Million americans. What are you hearing from the White House . Reporter in terms of why they didnt go further is the biggest proposal ive heard from people like our colleague Jonathan Rainer who you have on your show a lot, the doctor has said he should have mandated Air Travelers be vaccinated. The White House says they didnt do that because they think it would jam up airports and impede the economic recovery without doing all that much to improve vaccinations because a high proportion of Air Travelers are already vaccinated and all that much much covid is not spread because of good Air Filtration systems on plaeps. In terms of how it works is what Joe Biden is counting on here is the tHreat of fines on businesses applied tHrough occupational Safety And Health administration to impose vaccine mandates on large businesses affecting tens of millions of workers.

Syndrome, i dont even remember the handoff. I dont even remember what i said. Its kind of crazy, when you honestly, though. This is this is honesty. You meet especially, when we were in our big studios, the number of people that we would meet on a daily basis. And i have been doing two hours for, what, five, six, seven years. I forget how long. Two hours a night. And i dont mean to be rude. People would say, hey, do you remember i was on your show . And i would go, oh, yeah, i remember. Dont quite remember. And then, they have to remind me, prompt me and then i will go now, i remember. But i think i was interviewing like, maybe, 20 people a night at one point. And so, you know, theres only so much information that can be held up in this little, tiny you know, i think its interesting. You know, thank god you and i dont really think about why we do what we do. We just do it. I love it. We think about what we say, but we dont think about, you know, what its going to mean that we said it.
The White House says they didnt do that because they think it would jam up airports, impede the economic recovery without doing all that much to improve vaccinations because a high proportion of Air Travelers are already vaccinated and all that much covid is not spread because of good Air Filtration systems on planes. In terms of how its going to work, what Joe Biden is counting on here is the threat of fines on businesses applied through osha, the occupational Safety And Health administration, to impose vaccine mandates on large businesses, affecting tens of millions of workers. Theyre also counting on the fact that business itself wants to have the cover to impose some of these mandates. Business roundtable came out tonight saying we support what the administration is doing. Weve got to get aggressive in order to get on top of this. Finally theyre counting on mobilizing the social political pressure of the threequarters of american adults who have gotten vaccinated against the holdou
Have not had their shots and are still fueling the pandemic. The vaccine is fda approval, over 200 Million americans have gotten at least one shot. Weve been patient but our patience is wearing then and your refusal has cost all of us. So please do the right thing. New rules require workers at businesses with more than 100 employees to either be vaccinated or tested once week. But dr. Anthony fauci says he would have gone even further. The president is being somewhat moderate in his demand if you want to call it that in that there are some people who really dont want to get vaccinated but they dont want it lose their job. You have to give them anOff Lane. And the Off Lane is if you get tested frequently enough and you find out that you are positive, you wont come to work and infect other people. So it is somewhat of a compromise there. Myself, i would make it vaccinate or not. But he was trying to be moderate in what his pronouncement was. Jasmine wright is live for us in washington. G
