8:06 am
negotiated the deadline with the taliban in exchange for a promise, the us troops would not be attacked until then. we are well aware of, of, of the stated desire to buy the taliban to have this mission completed. by the 31st of august, i would tell you that we 2 are still planning on completing it by the 31st of august. that is the mission that women signed by the commander in chief assigned to us. and that's what we're trying to execute. some white house advisors are reportedly advising biden, not to change their timeline, fearing an end to the ceasefire. packed with the taliban since the taliban seized control and cobble on august 15th, the u. s. is evacuated. $37000.00 us citizens allies and ask in special immigrant visa holders. the white house says it will leave no american behind. we believe that we have time between now and the 31st to get out any american and wants to get out even allies. question whether the u. s. can finish the job by the end of the
8:07 am
month at a virtual meeting of g 7. leaders on tuesday biden will have to answer to critical state leaders demanding to know if everyone who needs to be evacuated can really get out by next tuesday. if that deadline doesn't change in cobble, and in the capitals of anxious allies around the globe. time is quickly running out . john henry l. j 0. washington, in authorities in the u. s. have fully approve the 5, the coven, 19 vaccine for everybody age 16 on above. it's been an emergency use since december, and there's hope the move will boost public confidence at a time when the number of new cases are rising. and you gotta get a report from miami is the highly contagious delta variance of curve at 19 continues to spread hospitals in the south and midwest of the us of filling up.
8:08 am
over the past few weeks, cases of recent dramatically, with the unvaccinated overwhelmingly hit hardest. on monday months after the 5, the vaccination was initially given emergency authorization is now formally approved by the food and drug administration. it's hope that approval on the rims of scientific data behind it will encourage the unvaccinated to finally get the jobs. if you're one of the millions of americans who said that they will not get the shot when it's until has full and final approval of f d a. it is now happened. the moment you been waiting for is here. it's time for you to go get your vaccination and get it today. today. an important moment in our fight against the pandemic in states like florida, louisiana, alabama, and mississippi where vaccination rates were low. most people have been lining up to get their jobs even before mondays approval for front line medical workers already strained with
8:09 am
a long battle against covert treating unvaccinated patients has led to widespread frustration. i feel some anger, sometimes it's it's trying to reach out to us when we've already extended our hand to help them. and they push it aside and ignored our advice and then they come back asking. and it's, it's frustrating the approval of defies. the vaccine only applies to those age 16 and over, but it's green life for adults has already led to large employers and the u. s. military mandating vaccinations here in florida. west. 17000 people are hospitalized with cove. it. it's hope. find his approval. we'll boost confidence in the effectiveness of vaccines. the state is recording more new cases than any other with unvaccinated people, citing concerns of a side effects and confusion fuel by mis information. if those taking the wait and see approach now get vaccinated, the difference will be significant. others remain defiant at
