i want to go back to something you said at the beginning that from the first 9-1-1 call to the him being taken into custody. you said that was a five-minute timeframe? that was. and part of the reason for that is there is a school resource officer in this school in oxford and so that resource officer was on site i believe at the time. that resource officer was part of the arrest there but there was another officer there. so that does mean that there was still a quick response time to get more officers there to back that school resource officer up. wow, fascinating. stephanie parkinson, appreciate the reporting. thanks so much. shortly before air time, i spoke with one of the students who was in his classroom when shots rang out. 17-year-old senior named aden page. aden, thank you so much for being with us. i understand you were in your classroom right before class began when you heard something. what happened? um, we heard two gunshots and ....
Teenagers dead, five injured. um, and and one gun and one suspect and that s all it took. so, my frustration is is is we can t do anything more at this stage. andrew, again, i go back to that famous fbi report and i don t have it in front of me. i haven t read it in a couple months but as i remember, most deaths in all of these shootings take place within the first-several minutes. i mean, the killings take place immediately. that s why a quick reaction from police is so essential but as juliette said, i mean, five minutes from the time the 9-1-1 call goes in to the time of the apprehension, that s incredibly fast. and yet, all the lives have already been lost. every one of these incidents, anderson, we study and we learn and we get better, right? so, virginia tech years ago pushed the this issue of getting the first responders to ....
Just reporting one of the ideas the white house is looking at is shortening the window, instead of 72 hours before you fly to get a test to coming to the united states. maybe a day. but also, once you land in the u.s., you would have to get tested again at some point, i guess, in in a number of days. does unless someone s tested immediately at the airport by authorities, what infrastructure does i mean, do we have an infrastructure in this country that would actually follow travelers two or three days late s and make sure they got tested? who would do that? yeah, not really. trying to set up an infrastructure quickly would be hard. you could test people at the airport with rapid ant jent tests. they do that in israel or used to at least when i went. exactly. and that would work well. i think we should consider doing that. there are other mechanisms. but asking people to go and get self-tested two, three days later is going to be pretty tough to enforce the millions of peopl ....
And now, omicron is is sort of omicron is sort of taking off. it s not competing against delta is my point. um, so we don t really know if this is going to be more transmissible than delta because it s not really been a footrace against delta in south africa. it s become dominant but there are nothing else really there at the time. dutch health officials said that today the omicron variant was detected in the netherlands a week before two flights arrived there from south africa. does that tell you anything about the the timeline of the variant and the surveillance that was happening in south africa? yeah. i think it tells me two things. i mean, one, anderson, it says there is good epidemiological reason to believe this variant probably started circulating in people late october. that, by the way, would be good news. it would mean that it s not some supertransmissible variant because it s been around for a little while. and the second is that it didn t originate in south afric ....
Hall on the new variant and what it means for all of us. next up for us tonight, two republican congresswomen. new video surfaces of one s anti-muslim bigotry. new attacks from the other against a colleague for simply calling it out as bigotry. almost total silence, of course, from the republican leadership. there are beautiful ideas that remain in the dark. ....
