7:00 pm
♪ >> from our studios in new york city, this is "charlie rose." we begin this evening with a zika virus story. the government issued a warning for pregnant women to stay clear of a miami, florida neighborhood. the mosquitoes carrying the virus have infected at least force -- at least 15 florida residents. funding forederal zika is in danger of running out this month. joining us from washington, till they want the most important thing for us to know and
7:01 pm
now, about right where we are in the zika crisis. >> what we have right now is a clear cluster of cases in a rather restricted area north of miami. that is a result of the fact that we have travel-related cases that were infected elsewhere, came to the continent , move back home, wherever, got bit by a mosquito, then transmitted it to someone. when that happens, you have to get mosquito control and do it aggressively. you also have to make sure you protect pregnant women and make sure that in that area, pregnant women protect themselves as best as they can. stay indoors with air-conditioning, make sure the screens on their doors and windows are intact. out, put have to go long close on that project most
7:02 pm
of their body, and then put insect repellent on. the people who are pregnant who are not in that area -- as you all know now, the cdc and the state of florida has put a restriction guidance to have pregnant women not go to that area right now. also, since this is transmitted sexually, you've got to be careful that you are exposed -- that if you are exposed, you have to go by the cdc guidelines for sexual transmission. we have a situation in florida, and i would not be surprised if we see additional cases in florida or other states along the gulf coast. the answer right now, in the absence of a vaccine, is mosquito control as well as protecting people from getting bit by mosquitoes. charlie: a bit of history for us and for the audience, it came to far, to-- it came too
7:03 pm
miami, how? people who were infected outside the continental united states, either in south america, central america, the caribbean, particularly puerto rico. from the united states, or people who are in the united states and visited those places and in quebec. -- and then came back. in florida, there are 1600 travel related zika cases in the united states, and florida, there are almost 400. and since we had copious mosquitoes in florida and all across the southeastern part of the united states that are capable of transmitting zika, somehow, somewhere, a mosquito bit that person that was a travel related case, then it someone who had never left the continental united states and has no travel history, and who has not had any other contact with a aegon-and acted individual stop -- any other -infectedith a zika
7:04 pm
individual. what we are seeing right now in florida is a cluster of cases in a rather restricted area. clearly this happens by a bite of a mosquito who originally didn't someone who got infected someplace else, and that we had -- and now we have a chain of transmission here in the united states, particularly in florida. some cases are individual, and some are linked. charlie: is the war against mosquitoes a winnable war? >> if you are thinking of eradicating mosquitoes, we will never win. we could suppress them enough to break any chain of transmission, to make it very inefficient to be transmission. when you have copious mosquitoes all over the place, you make it much more likely that you will hit one of those infected people who will then infect someone
7:05 pm
else. when you get the mosquito density very far down, you don't have to get rid of every last mosquito, but you've got to get the density down enough to get rid of and block that chain of transmission. charlie: why are more main infected than women in the miami case? you can never tell. i think the number 15 is so small that you can't do a statistical analysis on that. whenever you see situations outside of the florida situation , but with other diseases are seeseem men -- where you more main infected than women, it's usually because in certain societies men get out more than women. that's in general. that in societies like america, where women are out working and doing things as much as men, i don't inc. that really holds. -- i don't think that really holds. charlie: what happens if you are infected with the virus?
7:06 pm
pregnant are not a woman, it is generally very mild. 80% do not get any symptoms at all and are unaware they have been in active. -- been infected. and they aren usually relatively mild, rashes, joint ache and pain. that usually lasts about a week. the virus generally disappears in seven days. re cases a rare, ra of an urological syndrome that some people get in a very rare instance, associated with different viruses -- a new urological syndrome -- neur ological syndrome that some people get in a very rare instance, associated with different viruses including zika. it is the pregnant woman's
7:07 pm
vulnerability that sets this apart as a very special kind of infection. charlie: and what happens to pregnant women that are infected? when pregnant women get infected during their pregnancy, there is a chance, particularly if they get infected during the first trimester, that they will have a baby that has a congenital abnormality, particularly microcephaly, which is the small size of the head due to the interference of the developmental process of the brain, which generally, when it develops, pushes up the skull in a nice, smooth form. but when the development of the brain is either hindered or destroyed, it does not develop fully and the head looks like it is much smaller. also, if you get infected later, even though the brain seemed to develop well, it can cave in. it is a tragic situation because it wreaks triable -- wreaks terrible destruction on the
7:08 pm
child. charlie: there is also the question of zika at the olympics. help us understand how severe that is, and the decision by a significant number of people not to go to rio. , when you say not to go to rio, just to reemphasize, if you are a pregnant woman, you should not go to rio, because brazil and rio is still an area where there is active transmission, and the cdc guidelines recommend you don't go. other people aside, non-pregnant women, let's say an athlete, if you look at the rate of now, in august, compared to what it was in january and february, it is now white low compared to that. it is not absent, but it really is very low. the reason for that is twofold. many of the people living there
7:09 pm
have been infected already, so they are already in the end dampens the transmissibility probability. the other thing is that the mosquito density is becauseantly less now august is their winter, while january is their summer. there is a possibility that you might get infected if you go to brazil, that likelihood is much, much lower than it is in january. that is the reason why we were saying in general, apart from pregnant women, that the risk of going down there and having a serious problem is very low because outside of pregnant women, zika is a relatively mild disease. and now vaccine trials are about to begin, or have recently began all stop what are the -- began. what are the hopes for the vaccine? onwe began a stage one trial august the second, and the phase
7:10 pm
one trial is continuing now. it will be 80 individuals. the question you asked, is it safe? mainly, do we have any immediate red flags come up? and doesn't reduce the kind of response that you would predict would be protected? and that looks good, we will know that by the end of 2016, and we will hopefully proceed in the early part of 2017 into a large trial, ranging from 2400 people to 5000 people, to ask the question, does it work? , as the direct answer to your question, is to get a vaccine that will prevent infection, particularly of young women and girls of childbearing age, to protect them from when they become pregnant. do you assume these trials will be successful? >> you never assume that a vaccine trial is going to be successful, which is the reason -- they are more than one
7:11 pm
why there are more than one candidates. a company started their trial a few days before us. we are going to start another trial in october and another later wrong. ,henever we do vaccines particularly for something as serious as this, you have to have multiple irons in the fire because you never have a guarantee that any single candidate is going to work, so you put a lot of been in play. charlie: and vaccines are the best hope? >> no doubt. the best ways that you can address this, get rid of the mosquitoes, which is difficult. as we know in brazil and what we are seeing in florida. or, get a successful and safe vaccine to protect the population, particularly vulnerable ones such as women who are pregnant. charlie: thank you so much. >> good to be with you, charlie. charlie: we will be right back. ♪
7:12 pm
charlie: we continue with our look at the zika virus and its impact in florida with a conversation with the chief medical correspondent for cbs news, a practicing physician. this is from a conversation recorded on thursday afternoon. i think the number one thing that is going on right now is that every one of my colleagues at every level of government, especially in the health profession, are beside themselves over the lack of funding to help this zika outbreak. back in february, president obama requested 1.9 billion dollars in emergency funding at the request of the cdc, dr. todd freeman at the head of that. charlie: moving money around? >> they wanted new emergency money. what happened was, nothing. no new funding has been
7:13 pm
allocated. almost 600 million dollars has moved around. it was money that was supposed to go to ebola and other things. that has to be replenished. what has happened is a love of politics, and where we stand right now, which is a $1.1 billion compromise bill right the holdup is in the senate. democrats and republicans are pointing fingers at each other, because the republicans put on a writer that the funds cannot be used for planned parenthood support, and there was an issue about offsetting. democrats wanted it to be entirely about emergency funding. there is a compromise. the bottom line, congress is away on recess, no new funding. i just spoke with the head of the cdc, and he is beside himself. tom said to me, this is no way to run an epidemic. ♪
7:14 pm
7:15 pm
7:16 pm
we continue this evening with a look back at the ongoing presidential campaign. republican nominee donald trump has had a tough week. he drew widespread criticism after engaging in a feud with family,family -- khan
7:17 pm
the father of a muslim american soldier and his wife. on tuesday, trump also refused to endorse paul ryan and john mccain in their primary bids. in a fox news poll, hillary clinton currently has a 10 point advantage over donald trump. joining me is mark halperin, the cohost of "with all due respect." it is thursday afternoon, where is the trump campaign? mark: it is in a bad place. polls are nottate just the reality of what a hard period he has had, but they have a corrosive effect on the morale of republicans. , everyone in our business, calls and e-mails from people in the republican establishment saying, i can't believe this is happening. of quality and quantity those in the last 48 hours has been extraordinary. republicans are worried now that perhaps the plan of sticking to trump no matter what is not the
7:18 pm
right thing to do. not trying to force him from being the nominee, but in banding him -- but abandoning him. ship, or to ride the he will face a very precarious situation where republican donors, operatives, and establishment types focus solely on the house and senate. charlie: to ride the ship, he has to recognize there is a problem. does he recognize there is a problem? mark: my understanding is he does. people in the upper levels of the campaign believes that he gets it. he has made public comments with television stations that he gets it. he needs to focus on the economy. on theiving a speech economy on monday. and on hillary clinton. we all know he is not going to be a disciplined candidate in a way any other candidate will be
7:19 pm
at this level. charlie: will he be more disciplined? mark: i think so. i'm not sure it will be enough. charlie: are you sinking it will beginore to get people to dis-endorsing him? mark: they will do it in a self-interested way. i think there will be few people on the ballot in november who, out of some sense of morality, say they can't be for donald trump. are 10f all, there states left in the primaries. even in a general election, 70% of the base of the republican party wants him to win. but that's a back of the envelope thing. think about the house districts that are gerrymandered. these are dominating republican districts. ,f you are a house candidate 70% of your base voters are for trump. he is the republican nominee. ,here is no playbook which says
7:20 pm
go into a general election with 70% of your base voters angry at you. it just does not compute. they could stay home, they could vote for someone else. it is not out of some sense of love for donald trump or believe that he is running a great campaign that they are sticking with them. it is because you are running the risk of losing a safe seat if you abandon the nominee of your party who was elected by the voters. charlie: if donald trump turns it around, in terms of not digging a deeper hole, and against a talk about change and the economy, does not get distracted by personal accusations, if he does that, what makes you think he can win this election? mark: still tough. it will be tough for any republican because of the electoral college. he does not need to improve and that many states. he had a good fundraising month. some of us thought he would have
7:21 pm
the potential to raise those small dollar donations. money.n keep giving him if he runs good tv ads and focuses on those handful of states, if he makes the election more about donald trump -- less about donald trump, more about hillary clinton, he could be in the game. ort says thel manafi people who defected they are mostly not surprised about. these were not people that they thought would go to the end for them. mark: i think that's fair. maybe there are a few exceptions where the they were surprised. an antiestablishment candidate. he has views about foreign policy that are outside the mainstream of the establishment. i think if he has -- i think he will make it to the first debate . if he has a good first debate, i
7:22 pm
think he can keep things together. charlie: and no matter how many people conclude that the ed that he isgest not fit to be president, that has not yet stuck. circles, it has. i don't think he would do particularly well at manhattan but inbu dinner parties, the republican party, as i said, there is a reason that paul ryan said, my nominee said something that was racist, but i am still for him. it is still in their interest to try to hold things together, because the minute that people like paul ryan abandon him, there would be chaos in the base of the republican party, and they run the risk of losing the house of representatives. charlie: thank you, mark. back in a moment. stay with us. ♪ munoz is here. last month, he replaced as alexanderranda
7:23 pm
hamilton in the award-winning musical "hamilton." was previously the alternative in the role, dating back to january 20 15. he also serves as miranda's alternative and later replacement in the 2008 broadway musical "in the heights." i am thrilled to have you here. congratulations. javier: thank you so much. charlie: you and women while -- lin-manuel go back how long? for an we met at 2005 audition for what was a development workshop for "in the heights." they were auditioning for a role that no longer exists in the show. i went in and saying a george michael song for him, "the dream ."am,
7:24 pm
history.is we just became best friends s. shortly after that is when we went a different route. we were at a theater complex in connecticut, and there was an idea to audition me. when i got cast for those two weeks to do that for lin is when we forged that friendship. it is unlike any working relationship i have anywhere. it ise: in the sense that intimate, inspiring, constructive, collaborative, everything? javier: yeah, and it is a friendship too. it takes great trust to do what we do in the room together. for two actors to put aside ego and everything else and just
7:25 pm
make the work the focus and build a character together is very unique. charlie: this is a simple question, but everybody thinks about it. what is his genius? in my work with him, i find it to be it is what he is listening to. it is his perception of the context of whatever he is in, whether it is immersing himself in music, or tv, or a book, or a conversation. hears, i meane takes in information and perceives at a level i have never experienced in anyone else. it is getting to the heart of each thing. that, i think, is what he puts into his writing and work. but if you had to list define all these skills, is
7:26 pm
there one that stands out more than others because it is so close to perfection? lyrics?e music, the javier: i think it is his humanity, i really do. and i think that is what allows him to get to the heart of every interaction and engagement he finds himself in, and it comes out in his writing, very much so. think writing,d too. writing is how he defines everything else. javier: absolutely. alexander hamilton. how are you different than he is, other than the fact you are a different actor? i think the distinction i bring to "hamilton" is rooted in the life i have lived. challenges, obstacles, mountains i have climbed that are unique to what my journey
7:27 pm
has been as an individual, as a human being on this planet. i put myself through college, various health challenges, and just coming to terms with a piece in miami skin as a human skin as peace in my own a human being. all those things i pour into alexander hamilton. the fight i have in my life is the same fight she has. charlie: but these are not ordinary health challenges. you have had to have within you a real strength. javier: that is rooted within my family. team, my support are my brothers and parents. on, andr what is going in the past, no matter what has been going on throughout my life, the safest place i could be was home. charlie: because they gave you
7:28 pm
not only comfort, but also courage and strength and -- javier: yes. is a terrible thing, to battle hiv. javier: it was a difficult thing. difficult to find challenge much better than -- defines challenge much better than any other word. was 2002 when i was diagnosed, and i would like to think that much of the stigma and weight of being diagnosed with hiv has been lifted, and there is far more work that we have to do, and on a global scale there is even more work to be done. of love i needed a lot and support, and my family was there. charlie: not to give up, not to -- javier: absolutely. there through -- i think anyone prior to the
7:29 pm
current medications that are ,vailable, which are remarkable those earlier cocktail combinations and what was available had such incredibly severe side effects. to live through that and survive through that took my family's support. were days when it was difficult to look at myself in the mirror. there is mom's hand on my cheek, and that's all i need to know i am ok. charlie: and how proud is she ok? javier: they are incredibly proud. charlie: obviously they had seen you a number of times. did they see you the first night? javier: they saw my very first show at the public theater. i will never forget that experience. they saw that with my oldest brother. out into theming
7:30 pm
lobby to greet them, and the normal joy and tears and love. i cannot find my brother, and i asked my father, where is he active my father -- where is he? he said he was outside. why isn't he here to greet me? doors, myde the brother, he got teary-eyed. he was so proud that he needed to leave the building and get air, and take a moment. we shared quite a special hug and moment. charlie: that is familiar love. hamilton. tell me who he is to you. as a role, it is the greatest role i have ever played . it is so rich and there are so many layers to him, there is so
7:31 pm
much detail, as an actor it is a treasure trove. it seems endless, the amount of work i can bring to him and the discoveries i can have. as an historical character, i marvel at his courage as someone who immigrated to this country on his own and built the life that he did. charlie: wanting his shot. javier: yeah. it is beyond admirable. feeds myhat is what passion to dig, keep digging into the character, to do him justice, and the founding of our country. charlie: does your preparation go beyond his book and lin, and the text. javier: absolutely yes. as much history as i can pour as much but also
7:32 pm
humanity is the best word i can think of, constantly reading the newspaper, watching the news, talking to people, their reactions, hearing the words people use to describe their experience, and looking for more current events that are relevant to use. charlie: for the nuances. javier: absolutely. it is a vibrant time to be pouring so much of that into the conversations of the moments. charlie: none of us have loved haveer and loved biography seen anything like the phenomenon. to be there, the richard rodgers actter, a whole range of tours and musicians, and an ,udience from across the world a night in which they are celebrating and adding dimension
7:33 pm
to what they understood. about a huge, significant event in global history. javier: absolutely. it is so thrilling. life, i standn my backstage ready to go on and as soon as the lights change, everybody is cheering. they are thrilled to be there, thrilled to share the story. i've never experienced anything like that before. there is no need to feel nerves. you are just going to celebrate the story. charlie: it never gets old. javier: it is too rich. what lin and andy have created, what tommy has created through direction, even the set, there is constant discovery. charlie: and the dancing. we forget the dancing. it is remarkable. javier: the ensemble is
7:34 pm
remarkable. charlie: here is what you said. it is not just a history lesson. it is a lesson in empathy, and sharing experience, sharing my ethnicity, sharing my sexuality or my health issues, it has been a humbling reminder there is so much we can share about ourselves, and there is power in that moment of connection. i'm proud of the hope and encouragement i can offer audiences or fans by my experience. i'm proof it is not impossible. know there will ever be a time like this in my life or my career again. that is ok if there never is. the gift i have been given, this character to
7:35 pm
play, the sum or to be open about who i am as an individual and human being, and as an artist, to bring that into the cast andhave a diverse stand with that diversity every night, to have all of that be conveyed by just showing up and doing our work, we hope that , to theo an audience person who may not have ever seen themselves represented on know before, just needs to whatever challenge or struggle they are facing, it can be all right. that is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. charlie: was seeing something you did well -- javier: yeah. it was. that i neverng thought as a kid was something i
7:36 pm
could do. charlie: when did you find out? in the heights? older: i was about 17 years when i signed with my first agent. i was so naïve. i did not know what that meant. i thought it happen to every actor. i graduated and i was auditioning professionally. whatevern that i knew was in here as an artist was something i could make a career out of. it became a question of getting training and the determination, finding the strength to keep on the journey. charlie: is there film in the future? javier: i hope so. [laughter] i bet i know what role you would like to play. javier: we will see. certainly, yes. charlie: why did hamilton feel
7:37 pm
the need to write about his experience in his affair? javier: i think that is the question i would ask them. charlie: what were you thinking about? [laughter] javier: i would love to know the psychology. charlie: so confident in your ability to write yourself out of anything? javier: i think that is a part of it absolutely. he felt that was like any actor has the thing they do best. it would get him out of anything. charlie: i'll explain and they will understand. javier: that is how it played. reactions,ive the and it's not how i wanted it to go, that is a shock. because i wrote it. doesn't everyone get it?
7:38 pm
right. it is right there. i wrote it. charlie: i believe in you as long as i believe in myself. your capacity to understand if i simply write it down. javier: the confidence that it would be received and understood. charlie: the other thing i can't believe is with his son first of all, the duel, and then his own. javier: those coincidences. charlie: if anyone who knew the lesson of firing into the air. i think that is probably the thing that stays the freshest in the performance. every night. brainn't wrapped my around that choice. because of what happens to philip. every night it really is a fresh discovery as to why i'm going to raise the gun and not shoot.
7:39 pm
a fascinating universe of choices. just as an individual looking at history it's another psychological mystery i wish i could ask. what were you thinking in that moment? be the chief of staff of george washington. javier: it's remarkable what he accomplished. charlie: and all he wanted was his shot. javier: and that is what drove him. it is remarkable. charlie: thank you. great to have you here. javier: thank you. charlie: i can't wait to see you in the performance. i look over to it. javier: thank you. charlie: back in a moment, stay with us. ♪

7:47 pm
when it first got+++ about to come out, my concern was i had just played a kind of scum bag character that have this slimy kind of guy. i was worried they may be too similar in some way. what happened was todd and his co-writers had done so many -- so much work on the script and he was so tenacious, it became so infectious, every draft got better and better. he said just read the last draft. you have to read it. i read it and he had done so much great work. i had been wanting to work with him. he wanted this so bad. that is what you look or. someone who is that passionate. from -- eframs at

? tell me who he is. jonah: i think he is a very reptilian figure. movement and ability to come million kind of guy -- come he doesn't have a high moral comp this. the kindtenacious he's of person you meet and you may not want to be best friends with but you walk away going that guy is going to be successful whether i agree with how he become successful, that is what he will end up being. charlie: how does he pull it off? jonah: manipulation, intelligence. charlie: the ability to persuade and appear what he is not very jonah: -- not.
7:49 pm
the ultimate confidence which jonah portrayed very well in this film. charlie: you have to have confidence. todd: and swagger. charlie: and a little bit of insanity. if you knew what you were getting into you wouldn't get into it. jonah: and a little fake tanner. charlie: missing is your costar. miles teller. miles was a young actor i worked with, project x. he was in it for a short bit. we were talking about working together. this was in his early writings stages. he was in whiplash. he killed it. we put them in the room together. he felt like the right guy.
7:50 pm
he wanted to be here but he is on a plane. we filmed all over. romania, lasco, vegas. movie, on a six country bopping all over the place. charlie: because of the locations? todd: it's a tough movie for a lot of reasons but the locations when you travel with a crew, it's a traveling circus. you hit the ground running. .ou don't have prep time it was a bear of a film. charlie: he did not want to meet with you? jonah: no. i played a handful of real people at this point. whenever the person doesn't want me to play them and wants no involvement it turns out good. if they want me to play them it turns out not very good. i took it as a good sign.
7:51 pm
moneyball and willful wall street. that wasthe character based on their lives? jonah: they had some objection. charlie: why? todd: they don't want to be part of it. jonah: i think it had to do with me. they say who is playing the other guy, leonardo dicaprio? ?ho is playing me, jonah hill i'm not going to be involved. in this case he wanted to make his own version of the film of his life, trying him as scarface or the godfather as opposed to a more honest look. charlie: when you talk about the relationship between leo, you learn from him and all of that. jonah: the different actors you work with have different perspectives on spending time with the real person. i would always choose to do so
7:52 pm
but it is not mrs. harry. miles was involved. we got to hang out with him. i like hearing what he had to say. charlie: didn't they later split up? up.: they do split it's about that collapse of their partnership. in a they are installed lawsuit against each other. he serves four years for what happens in the movie. david is pursuing his lawsuit against him. you take the seat of a character and what you know about a character, then a guy like jonah, they have their own thing. jonah: there is just something missing. like when you feel you are almost there but there's a component missing. you start looking for the smaller stuff. i started thinking about people you don't know very well but that leave an impression.
7:53 pm
someone from member with an interesting laugh. it became a balance of interesting memorable idiosyncratic laughing that isn't too annoying. and editing how much to use that laugh. charlie: what about bradley cooper? todd: bradley plays an amalgamation of two characters. dealer theyry arms know of in their foray into arms. they know about him. he is the guy. they get a chance to meet him and end up partnering with him. his character ends up screwing over bradley's character. bradley represents that -- [laughter] charlie: how do you get radley cooper? todd: we are producing partners.
7:54 pm
it is called joint effort. this was going to be made under our banner. he's a producer anyway. i said it wouldn't kill you to show up for five days. it didn't take that much convincing. he loves jonah. he was excited. charlie: you need your own little production company on the warner bros. lot. -- i want to be a director. i'm going to direct my first film this year. i can only work on one thing at a time. i'm not good at splitting my focus onto a lot of projects. these are amazing -- these guys are amazing. i did want to work with todd that whole time. you know, he does have the ability to sort of -- he's one of the last directors that can
7:55 pm
