The sevenday average of new cases for 100,000 residents is 300% higher than it was on labor day of last year. The cdc also said children s hospitals across the country are filling up with covid cases and community transmission is dangerously high. We ll have much more on this in a moment. Let s begin with our senior medical correspondent elizabeth cohen. Good morning to you. Why is there such a lack of clarity here on the booster? the way i understand is the white house said we got them and we bought them and now we need the green light from the fda. They thought they would get that by the 20th of september? i want to cut through all of this and say i don t like using sports metaphors but i m going to use one now. This is an unforced error by the biden administration. Back on august 18th, they said we ll be ready. President biden said we ll be ready by around september 20th to do this booster rollout. They never should have named a specific date. They should have said back then, look i
Hardhearted ones. Get your translation book to interpret their comments. Unbelievable. I will pick up where you left off. I am laura ingraham and this is the ingraham angle from washington tonight. As the angle predicted last year, you may remember, biden would never be strong enough to it stand up on the squad. Boy, today we were proven right again. I have a hint for you. It s bad news if you are a landlord. A well known imuneologist did some of the early research on the covid vaccines and says that part of it was a mistake he will tell us what it is later tonight. First new york s death wish. That s the focus of tonight s angle. Anyone of a certain age remembers an ad campaign used to promote tourism in a beleaguered new york. I love your foreign accent. I love the way you put on a show. I love new york. There are more ways to love new york then there are lights on broadway. I love new york. Do you know why? because it s open all night. Laura: well, that was back in the 1980s. Celebr
Vaccinated in boston since january the 1st, the board of health ordered that all the inhabitants of this city be vaccinated or revaccinated forthwith. The board explains that although there has been a most remarkable cooperation throughout the city, the medical profession and the people in general, having acquiesced to a most remarkable extent in its request for vaccination, it is necessary in order to stamp out the smallpox epidemic that all persons not protected by vaccination or revaccination shall be vaccinated. Now, this was about the deadly boston smallpox epidemic of 1901. It killed hundreds of people. It would also turn out to be boston s very last smallpox outbreak because if cases kept climbing despite pretty high vaccination rates the health department mandated that everyone in boston get a vaccine. Doctors went door to door with vaccines. Look at this amazing illustration from the boston globe. This is january 28th, 1902. So about a month after the health department announc
Complication. You look into it and everyone says, this is is very rare. Then why put the warning? we ll get the straight talk. The investigating along with the cdc matters, but the government still stresses it is better to get vaccinated than to get covid. So, you see, it all confuses you. Be worried. Don t be worried. We need straight talk. We already know the big concern when it comes to covid sickness a lack of vaccinations. That s what s happening here. Less than half the country is fully vaccinated. We knew. That s why they were talking about herd immunity. It s a little of a magical number. Doesn t exist that way as a metric you could nail to a certain number, but when you don t have a fully vaccinated population, the pace is going to grow. Vaccinations, the pace dropped peak in april, 84%. It s slowed down since then. So, what are cases doing? they re climbing. Averaging nearly 20,000 a day. 47% increase from last week. 47% from last week. Why? these are gone. Why do you know so
