return to at some point. this is all part to get the city backup and running to get life resumed so hopefully where it once was. >> a nice boost to see players practice. hope to see you tomorrow. brianna keilar picks up our coverage right now. hello, i am brianna keilar, this is cnn's special live coverage of the coronavirus pandemic. the u.s. is reaching 100,000 deaths from the coronavirus. it is an fathomable loss of life, the u.s. is under going the deadliest outbreak in the world. no other nation has lost more people with more than one and four deaths around the globe happening here. i want to leave this map here just to show you where cases are arriving and where t's the fallg

and if they are remaining steady. this is reopening plan as all 50 states are underway right now. crowds have been packing beaches and boardwalks and pools with few masks in sight. official fes fear of a second p of this first wave. listen to this. >> we need to be cognizant of the fact that the disease can jump up any time. we can't make assumptions that just because the disease is on the way down that it is going to keep going down and we are going to get a number of months to get ready for a second wave. we may have a second peak in this wave. >> we approach this devastating death toll of 100,000 lives lost here in the united states. let's examine those numbers.

i want to bring in tom foreman. you have been diving into the data here, what are you learning? >> the people who are paying the deepest cost for this are your parents and grandparents because older people are dying much more than anyone else. take a look at this graphic here. over the age of 75, that accounts for almost 60% of all the deaths that are out there right now from this virus. that's a whopping number. the people who's over 65 and now you're closing in on this 80% number for the number of people who are dying in this and below that, 45 or 64 so people of a couple decades out of retirement or less. below that, 4%, only 3% of the people are passing away from this. you understand what young people are saying what's the worries here in my odds are actually good. look at this if you put it side

by side with the number of cases of this virus, yes, some are typical and some have very little reaction of this. look at this. when you talk about cases, those stack heavily in those 18 to 65 range. that's where most of the cases are. and yes, some people are typical but many are suffering enormously when they get theis. we don't know what the lasting effects are. people talk about problems with lungs or organs or blood clots or things like this. we don't know if young people may survive this. we simply don't know right now. in terms of mortally. people who are hit the hardest of preconditions. look at the map as we mention right there. the question continues to be what are we going to do in terms of the trends here. the current map, yes, we see

plenty of red on that map. southeast right now is getting hammered and nothing there except for dark red. there is some green in the middle of the country. this is only comparing the past week and the previous week and what is the trend there. as we said all along brianna, until you see three quarters of this map turns green and stays week in and week out, you can't begin to say the crisis has passed. >> brianna. >> thank you for walking us through that tom. >> i want to go to our dr. yasmin. many people think this is a sickness, they would not be wrong looking at these numbers.

many are suffering long-term effects of crackiontracting the coronavirus. >> that's right. older people are dying, it is true, more than half of deaths in america happens to people over the age of 75. but around 40% of americans who have died from covid-19 have been in the mid-40s and 50s and 60s and younger than 75 and around 1 and 6 americans who have died from covid-19 have been in the 18 to 44 years old age group. if you look at cases as tom mentioned, we are seeing half a million infections in the 18 to 44 years old age group. that's more than we are seeing. that younger age group is exactly who we have been seeing over the holiday weekend at pool parties and packed at beaches

and on the boardwalks. it is important when we are not out of the woods and we don't have a sense of security because we are younger and presuming that you are safe. we are not. this disease is infecting and killing americans from late teens up until their older age. >> we are hitting this as a grim marker, 100,000 deaths in a matter of hours. when you look at that marker, what does that say to you of where we are and where we are going? >> it is a devastating mild stone. we think about hundreds of thousands of people who have died. that's half the population of rochester, new york, being wiped out the last few months or the entire population of san mateo here in california have died. it is such a huge loss. i want to remember the names and

the people behind those numbers. what's painful to me as as public health physician that how many of those deaths may have been prevented if we acted earlier and been much more prepared for a pandemic. there is one analysis shows that if we closed just a week earlier, we may have saved 36,000 deaths. too late now to go back and do that. we have to be really, really careful. we learned those lessons and still doing social distancing and wearing masks. we are not out of the woods. >> dr. yasmin. thank you. the state of georgia was the first to relax many of its social distance guidelines. despite what appears to be a plateau of a number of cases, there is a new cluster of infections linked to an atlanta

school. nic robertson reports. >> reporter: the school sent a letter to the family saying several of their students have been infected by the virus. the school postponed the graduation and closed it down. according to local reports one of those students was infected with the virus hosted a gathering that night affecting many others. >> in southern california, health officials are worried of many outbreaks striking food plans. here is our diane gallagher. >> reporter: more than 150 employees of a farmer processing plant in vernon, california, tested positive for coronavirus. they employ about 1800 people at farmer john, the union head is

calling them to close. they can do deep cleaning. this plant is one of nine that's dealing with covid-19 outbreak in its employees. other packaging and meat facilities, most of the people who work in these plants don't live in vernon. they are driving in from other parts of that southern california area. mostly in los angeles. brianna. >> dianne, thank you so much. a video surfaced in a packed full party in the ozarks and no social distancing and no masks. health officials are calling everyone who attended to self-quarantine in two weeks. dr. page is the one who called for that quarantine. have you heard anything of positive cases at this pool party? >> it is too early to tell.

we know that many people traveled over the weekend and did so responsibly and following social distance measures. what we saw was an international example of bad judgment where many people put themselves at risk and put their committee at risk by bringing covid-19 back to us. it is really too early to tell what will happen from this. people can be symptomatic for days. they can carry covid-19 and not have symptoms at all. we have to be prepared for this. we ask employees here at st. louis county to ask people if they traveled this weekend and if they were again any type of crowded scenario, shoulder to shoulder and not respecting social distancing and that puts them at risk and our community at risk. have you heard of anyone following or deciding to follow your directives? is there a way to follow up and ensure they are?

>> people need to make a decision of what the best path forward is. i understand following social distancing guidelines will get us there. these examples we see across the country and here in missouri are the wrong thing to do. we are not ready to be in crowds and this virus is not in complete control. we are in the middle of a pandem pandemic. not doing that putting everyone at risk. we are working hard to put our message out. we can't see what we saw last weekend. everyone that's involved needs to respect the community and respect the ones that they love and isolate themselves and self-quarantine for two weeks and make sure they don't bring it back to the community. >> why do you think people ignore? why do you think they did that and behave like this and to be clear this is not the only place

where we saw this happening? >> there is still individuals who don't yet understand the gravity of the situation that we are in. part of that is communications and part of that is understanding and acceptance in our community that social distancing israe real. there is no cure for covid-19 and no vaccines yet. the best way to fight is to prevent it from spreading. there are still too many people out there that don't believe it or not understanding what we need to do to move our country forwa forward, that's social distancing. >> dr. sam page, thank you for joining us. another pharmaceutical giant entered the vaccine race. the president mocks joe biden for wearing a mask which of course is the president's own

a book that you're ready to share with the world? get published now, call for your free publisher kit today! president trump's refusal to follow guidelines of wearing masks. the president shared a tweet mocking joe biden for wearing one during a memorial day event.

never mind that biden is acting in line with trump's own advise, the cdc's advise and the trump administrati administrati administration's advise to wear a mask. reasons varied from eye opening to jaw dropping. >> i mean everybody got to go somehow. >> my family has the same mindset as myself and we kind of disagree that if we get it, we get it. we'll handle it as a family and just get over it because that's what family does. >> this virus is going to go live. i don't feel it is going to come back. god is going to heal us. i am not going to wear mask. i don't feel it is going to affect me and i don't feel i am

going to pass it onto someone else. >> if he's not wearing a mask, i am not wearing a mask. if he's not worried, i am not worried. >> the president? >> yes, sir. >> gloria, you heard the last guy saying if trump won't wear a mass, why should he? if the president is not worried, why should he? this is according to the president's own task force. the evidence is, is not that it savers a litt sav saves a little bit. this is a significant deterrent that people get sick and dying and yet the president is not leading by examples, why? >> the president decided for some reason that he does not like to wear a mask. he said early on i have to greet people at the white house and i

don't want to wear it, maybe it is veanity. what has become is a wedge issue and a cultural touch stone which should not be. some people now see wearing a mask is a sign of weakness. it is a sign of respect for your fellows and some of the people you had in those spots seem to think that wearing a mask is about them. wearing a mask is about respecting and not wanting to infect anyone around you just in case you may have asymptomatic disease or disease that has not developed yet. that's what wearing a mask is about. it is kind of hard to understand why people are saying well you know obviously i just feel fine and if the president is not wearing one then i am not going to wear one. the president has people around

him also who are tested all the time, most of us don't. >> he's the president, steven, so he has added protection and including the facts that he wants people around him wearing masks, right? he wants those staffers closer to him because some of them tested positive. he had those protections because they are protecting him. it is worth noting on this weekend, this holiday weekend, this is a somber weekend, it is meant to honor the sacrifices of braves, the president was waging a twitter war including attacking biden wearing a mask. you say the strategy could prove successful for him which is why he's doing it. tell us about it. >> i don't think we should be surprised that the president is behaving this way.

he gives this glimpse of his mind through all of his tweets. look a lot of americans and talking about it and following every tweet and he likes the fact that he horrifies the national media. this is proof to them that they voted to disrupt that. there are other republicans who don't like the way the president behaves or they reconcile themselves to it. they agree with wider fiphilosoy of america's first and etcetera and etc. it will be interesting to see whether the president alienated so many people in the election because of this crisis or whether he could get his base so riled up over this issue as he has for so many others to win the election. he put all his chips on the idea

that the country is ready to reopen and by november it will be an unstoppable force. if there is a spike from the virus because of the way he's acting, that can be a blow to his campaign but he made that big bet. >> and there was a tweet that the president put out there gloria where he is demanding credit for his handling of the pandemic. he says the u.s. would have lost up to 2 million lives as oppose to 100,000 plus if he had not done his job well and early. what did you think about this? >> the president is frustrated because his behavior early on in the crisis was so different and that we have all kinds of videos of the president saying it is going to go from 15 cases to zero and the virus is contained and february when more could have been done and it was not done. what we are seeing now is a president wanting to take credit as this president wants to do

for controlling the virus in this country and we know that was late in happening and he's also frustrated brianna because he can't change the subject the way he normally does. he's a great deverter aiverter. and that does not work with the pandemic because a pandemic affects people every single day. they're losing jobs, they're losing any kind of wealth, they're at home and you know they want to be out. they want to be safe. they want to be sure that they can be safe. it is very difficult for this president to disrupt in a way he normally disrupts because a lot of people are not buying it. it could work for him but in the end, if things go great in the fall and the economy is coming

back, it is also a big risk right now to say to people just go out there, we are back to normal and while the scientists are quite frankly saying something else. >> i am so surprised he's doing it. when we look back at 1918 and the peak, the worst of the wave waves was the one in the fall. gloria and steve, great to see you both. joe biden sitting down with our dana bash to talk about coronavirus and the politicalization of masks it will be today at 5:00 p.m. in the "situation room." an election worker tested positive during primary voting sparking fears of exposure. how spacex astronauts protected themselves in quarantine before tomorrow's launch. e.

march when the nba suspended because of the pandemic. this is the first time players can train and lift weights and do other things. there are restrictions in place. they're not allowing more than four players in at a time. placers are not allowed to practice with one another. each player has to stay on their own, they're not allowed to have scrimmages so there are limits as to what players can do. we are hoping for some kind of reason to resume. > >> reporter: the trump organization is fuelling the impact of the pandemic. those housekeepers, cooks and

servers represent 45% of the employees there who were placed on a temporary leave in march. those temporary lay-offs now turn into permanent job losses. about 2,000 employees have been furloughed. astronauts spent three weeks in ultimate quarantine preparing for their launch. lift office scheduled for wednesday from cape canaveral. the astronauts work and live side by side and unable to

one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world is jumping into the race to develop the coronavirus vaccine. m merck enters the vaccine race. they're developing a covid-19 candidate based on its measles vaccine. human trials are planned later this year. this is at the colorado at bo d boulder announced they'll have

in person classes this year. what they are doing is taking new students and grouping them into groups of ten. these small groups are going to make it easier to quarantine if one person gets sick. let's talk about this with our chancellor phillip. chancellor, thank you so much for joining us. we sort of read through the plan but maybe you can explain this to us how this ten-person grouping would work. so if you are a new student, you come to campus, you live and you go to school or class with the same group of ten? >> yes. it is a cohort group, brianna. students living in the same residence hall and same dormitories will take classes together as a cohort group and they may take three to four classes each. that reduces the number of

individuals that they would be in contact with in a regular semester they may have 50 or 40 different students that they would be interacting with rather than just ten and we believe that by reducing that population density will certainly help to mitigate some of the problems with the virus. >> okay, so i want to ask you about what happens if students don't exactly follow the plan when it comes to socializing. i want to ask you about maybe going in -- i went to a large university myself and i don't think there was one person that i knew who was in all of my classes. is this going to be reducing the i guess options, the various choices they have per class selection to get ten students to have the same syllabus? >> right. it will. we'll be assigning classes for

first year students. these will be classing that would count for graduation. we want to make sure they stay on schedule to graduate and so we'll be placing students in class and it will be more of required courses of electives for their first year. we feel this is a way they can be successful in making head ways towards their degrees and at the same time be safe. >> i wonder what happens if some students decide they're going to socialize with people outside of their 10% group. >> that's definitely going to happen. we can't stop socialization. we are going to be covid ready by requiring our students to wear masks during the day while they're on campus and also on social distancing standpoint. we are not going to be able to

mitigate 100% of students socializi socializing. we feel while they're on campus, we can mitigate some of the problems there and know where you can shutdown certain groups if you limited their exposure when it come to classrooms. >> chancellor, thank you for coming to us, it is a fascinating idea, we appreciate you explaining it to us. >> thank you, my pleasure. new york's earliest hot spot. here is a lesson that new rochelle has learned as it reopens today. >> plus, twitter refused to delete president trump's tweet as the president attacks a tv host. so you only pay for what you need!

.. a group of minneapolis police officers are placed on leave, an officer -- the main later died after being taken to the hospital in police custody. i do want to warn you, this is very disturbing. this video does not record what leads up to the arrest, does not show parts of the arrest as plea describe as the victim resisting arrest. >> i can't breathe.

please, please, i can't breathe. [ bleep ]. >> get up and get in the card. >> i can't, i can't move. >> get up and get in the car right. >> i can't. my stock ache hurts, my neck hurts. everything hurts. give me some water or something. please, please. >> it is very difficult to watch there. i'm joined by melvin carter, the mayor of neighboring st. paul, minnesota. mayor, what is your reaction when you see this video? >> it's heartbreaking. it's unacceptable. to wake up to that, another video obviously it's not the first one like that that we have seen, but to wake up to that and see that so close to home is just heartbreaking for us.

>> it's hard to watch without knowing what happens late to the man who died. you've heard me say the video did not record what leads up to the arrest, and it does not show parts of the arrest that police described as the victim resisting arrest. what do you say to that? >> i say we have a ten-minute video of a police officers sworn who we pay to protect and serve us, literally breathing the life off a man who is helpless. there's nothing that can be explained about what happened before that, about any context orb other information. we know there will be an effort to slander or blame the victim, but we can't let anything distract us from the fact we have a ten-minute video of an officer putting his full weight into the back of the neck of a man while he begs for help and why bystanders scream that this man is dying. >> so the mayor apologized

directly, he said, to the black community. i want to listen to more of what he said and then get your reaction. let's listen. >> what we saw was horrible, completely and utterly messed up. this man's life matters. he matters. he was someone's son, someone's family member, someone's friend. when you hear someone calling for help, you are supposed to help. this officer failed in the most basic human sense. i'm sure you know the mayor of minneapolis.

is that snuff? is there a role for him here that he has not fulfilled? >> i know the mayor well, we are close friends, and i have to appreciate his unambiguous statement. is an apology enough? of course not. what we see is another episode in our generations-long running case of whether our justice system is capable of protecting and serving all of us, whether it has credibility for caring for all of our lives. you know, so you appreciate his statement, and i know he is just as distraught as the rest of us. we all have actions to do. it's not just on him. it's about our nation and finding the soul of our nation here. >> i'm so glad we're having this

conversation. we're going to continue to stay on this story. mayor melvin carter, thank you. >> can i share one more thing? >> please do. >> that's this. whenever we see these videos, and obviously this is not the first one, but one of the things that's most disturbing for me is the other officers, whether it's one, two or five who stand by and stand guard. if there was only one, we might be able to make the argument that that is a rogue officer or something like that, but when you see a handful of others or even just one other, it undeniably spits to a normalize points to a normalized culture. >> especially the part of the demeanor of the other officer did not match the situation we were seeing happening. mayor, thank you. thanks for joining us. >> thank you.

public transportation. once they got here, they had to have their temperature checked, put on face masks, and make sure they maintain six feet between each other on the floor. there will be no eating, no handshaking, no physical contact at all. there's some plexiglas erected throughout the trading floor to help the traders maintain that social distancing. even as the new york stock exchange contemplated opening up the trading floor, not only did they have to deal with health and safety issues, but legal issues as well. traders are now required to sign liability waivers acknowledging the risk going into the exchange, that they still could get the virus. if they do, they waive their rights to sue the nyse. brianna? >> very interesting. thank you for that report, alison, from outside the new york stock exchange. top of the hour
