them on the mother's shoulder and hold them and then their body temperature will go back up so a lot of it is not expensive stuff, and yet, you know, trying to get it deployed in the toughest places in the world. >> each of you are just innately curious about this and you want to find the answers. this is something you just think about all the time, right? >> 94% survive we have a 20-plus year difference in life ex-peck tansy whether you live to your early 60s or 80s, depending which city you live in and your income. >> it's interesting. if you're married, you do better f you have a dog, you do better. income and race, it's pretty disturbing those gaps are so large. >> what do you believe is a good way to tackle the ignorance of

people who are against vaccines? >> we've seen the recurrence of diseases that have wiped out before, whether it's measles or mumps coming back, a condition that when i was a child and mumps vaccination wasn't there, i ejded up with encephalitis and nearly -- well, i was in a coma for three weeks. that was my one thing that could have killed me early on in life. among them, the most dramatic effects on life come from vaccinati vaccinations, we have to keep remeenldsing people, say it, pointing out, when we take it away, this is what happens >> bill, can you tell us a little bit about the announcement you came out with this week on malaria >> malaria is still a tough disease in almost half the countries in the world we have two things we want to achieve. we want to keep getting the cases to come down, they've come down by 60%.

and we want to shrink the map and do country eradications. our big project here was a $180 million project that would take the tools to central america it would give us the understanding and credibility to eventually go after malaria where it's most intense, which is ee q is africa. i'm becky quick and this is "on the money." later, being healthy isn't just about eating right and exercising some pretty important factors you may not have considered. these birds once affected by oil

are heading back home. thanks to dawn, rescue workers only trust dawn, because it's tough on grease yet gentle. i am home, i am home, i am home

well, whether you love tom brady or hate him, here's an interesting super bowl fachlkt win or lose, he's going to be bringing home less cash compared to jimmy garoppolo why is he bringing home less explain this. >> it's called a jock tax. they tax them for working a few days in their state and minnesota is near the top of the nation that tops out at 9.85%.

>> this is interesting they consider their entire annual salary and prorate it for the number of days they worked in that state, but the definition of working, it's not just sunday game day it includes practice time, media playerability. that could be seven or more days for these super bowl players let's say a player makes $20 million for season, they work 200 days that's $100,000 a day. if they're in minnesota for seven days, they're going to get tagged at seven days that's more than the $56,000 they would even get for appearing in the super bowl. the best bet would be to get the money without showing up he's going get $56,000 anyway because he was on the team most of the year. he already got traded. he got sold.

so they're basically playing for free and losing money and it's complicated because they pay taxes to many years and have to figure out many credited you can lose even when you win the longest arm, it's not the players. it's the long arm of the minnesota tax man. >> how does minnesota keep getting super bowl if i were the players, i would petition the nfl to not have me play there. >> it would be nr any state. it's any game. if you're on the giants and you're going to visit minnesota and philadelphia and atlanta -- >> you have to pay every one of these jurisdictions. >> but it's the only place you're going to lose money playing there. >> california is pretty high too. the key is you've got to win if you lose the game, you may not be making enough money but if you win, you get $112,000. >> well, good. then you can pay your tax bill
