well, i could look at that all day. lj, welcome. you're beautiful. thanks for joining us. see you tomorrow and join us tonight at the cnn democratic convention. don't go anywhere. anderson cooper takes over right now. have a good day. i'm anderson cooper, welcoming viewers here in the u.s. and around the world. the u.s. health organization aweren't urgent message for young people as the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread, you are not invincible and your life depends on the decision us make right now, that as we see new spikes in cases at universities forcing administrators to change course days after welcoming students on campus. notre dame suspending in-person classes two weeks while michigan state switching to remote learning for all graduate students and other communities testing positive. the nation's top infection disease expert offering guidelines how the schools can keep students and faculty safe.

>> you can test everybody before they come in. you can then do intermittent surveillance testing, and you need the capability of identifying isolating and contact tracing. if you can do that, then you very well may be able to open up the college and the university. if you can't it will be more problematic. >> taking a look nationwide. 20 states and washington, d.c. shows downward trends. the u.s. added just over 44,000 new cases tuesday, the average remains below 50,000. down 8% from last week. we begin with breaking news. the "new york times" is reporting coronavirus treatment about to be authorizeds by the fda for emergency use is now on hold. it involves using blood plasma donated by people who survived the virus. a number of health officials including dr. fauci pumped the brakes urging emergency data about the treatment was too weak. bring in our analyst, deputy

physician and chief of quality and memorial sloan-kettering hospital in new york city. explain what this entails? >> you know, the, with any infection our own body makes a lot of products that fight the infection, but one of interest here is antibody. what this does is look at, it collects antibody from people who survived the infection. skims it off and gives it to the next person. so it's taking my immune reaction, skimming it off and giving it to you, if you are infected. it's been around for 100 years. >> what are some concerns associated with the treatment? >> the treatment itself is pretty straightforward. there's some side effects in some people who get some fever, with the infusion, but it's well tolerated. if it's done correctly. you need a very high-tech blood

bank-level 21st century lab to do this safely. >> so when the fda is halting blood plasma trials because of a lack of data, what exactly does that mean and why would they do that? >> this is the same group that was very cautious with hydroxychloroquine. so we have to give them kudos for remaining true to the science. the data's not -- >> they withdrew the emergency authorization for hydroxychloroquine. >> because -- because the data wasn't there. they hoped it would be there but it was not. this is the same sort of thing. there's a lot of good signals here. a lot of good signals here but none of the studies that have been published are strong enough in their methods. there are no randomized controlled trials of the product. taking data from a series of patients who received it, but they're not comparing it to

those who have not received the product, creating the single problem we had with hydroxychloroquine. it might look good at first blush but you can't control in anyway other than giving a placebo. you can't control for differences in the populations that we treat it in. so that means we have a problem here. something that smells pretty good, looks pretty good but we're not ready for it and it's going to cause a backlash. >> does that mean the idea of using plasma from somebody to somebody else, that it doesn't work? or we just can't really test it properly at this point? it's a no-no? >> we don't know enough yet. it looks good, as dr. arturo, who's been the force behind this, infectious disease sites, at the start said it was, a "maybe" it would work. improved it to a "possibly" it would work and now at the point

saying it "probably" will not but not at the point saying it "certainly" will work. for the safety of the public we have to know that it certainly works. it's a tough business when there's a pandemic out there and we have something that is effective. worst we can do go down the same path with hydroxychloroquine and get behind something that finally doesn't work. >> yeah. doctor, appreciate it. thank you very much. as we mentioned top of the broadcast, world health organization issued a serious warning for young people today. >> i think we just need to make sure that the messages that are getting out, particularly to young people, particularly to children and young adults, that you are not invincible to this virus. we are seeing people even young people who are ending up with severe disease. we are seeing young people who are ending up in icu and we are seeing young people who are dieing from this virus. >> in a separate briefing w.h.o.'s regional director

emphasizing young people are driving spread of the virus, not surprising when you look at pictures like this from chapel hill. few mask ares as people left a sorority house. the school announced it's moving to online classes after a surge of coronavirus cases. it's not alone. colleges reporting clusters forcing many schools to shift to online learning. cnn's bejana golodryga is covering this. how bad is it? >> reporter: look, anderson, a lot of problems. universities have anticipated we would see clusters, would see cases. what's a bit surprising is how quickly we are seeing them into the school year. remember, they said online k-12 schools prepared with adequatest itting, have ppe. today notre dame, latest to suspend in-person classes for 12,000 students on campus, quite ambitious in may, saying they

would reopen for in-person classes and now have 147 suspected cases, positive cases. the students for at least now will be quarantined to their dorm rooms and studying online as the university tries to assess what the next measures are. just one university, michigan state. also saying they would be suspending in-person lessons and classes and supposed to start just two weeks from now. imagine the headache for families preparing to get their students and their children back into schools only to be told, no. stay home. then we've seen clusters throughout the country. north carolina state announced members of their fraternity and sorority tested positive. iowa state, 175 positive cases liven on-campus. a lot of these campuses now are turning into infirmaries, students are isolated and set aside, drake university, actually told 14 students tots go home two weeks violating states agreement signed going into the school year. this is a big problem for

schools. they're trying to figure out how to make it work, but students do need to heed the warning from the w.h.o. seen pictures and kids wanting to party. all been in college. we understand what that life is like and this is a different situation for them, but for this to tall work they have to heed the warnings and they have to take this seriously. >> yeah. it's really complex. beana golodryga, good to see you. after a week of moving in beginning their semester at university of tennessee-knoxville today. reporting tleers ining at least coronavirus with people in isolation. and welcome, thanks for being with us. a cluster of active covid cases traced to an off-campus house party. walk us through the process? how did you identify the party? >> well, thank you, anderson, for having me. we have a large group of

contract tracer, and when notified students fill out a self-isolation form or we hear from the county health department they've tested positive, and the contact tracer's immediately contact them and find out who they wr in close contact with. that means somebody within six feet for more than ten minutes. and then we immediately contact those people. that's how we found out about this first cluster. and they told us where it was. we knew it was a party off-campus and that's the part we're really having to stress pi students. that behave hear to change. >> you said could be punishments for students who host parties and don't comply with covid guidelines as well as students who don't comply with contact tracers throughout the semester. what would that look like? >> well, our student code of contact is not within the code of contact to do anything that endangers the health of anybody else in this community. during a pandemic, if you won't cooperate with contact tracers and we had a little bit of that,

or if you won't report to the self-isolation app on their phone or host a party where other people's lives in endangered we consider that a violation of the code of contact and we will use it, and i was clear about that yesterday in a live briefing i did. so i think the word's getting out. i also yesterday walked through the area right near our campus where a lot of students live, upper classmen and where the parties happen. i was with city councilmen, with land homeowners, people who live there as well as landlords working together to figure how to stop this. our police are with us. we're really pleading with our students. think about what it means to be a volunteer. we are the tennessee volunteers. this is the time if we want to be here on campus it's a different kind of experience. we can do this. students have to step up and do their part. >> so if somebody does test positive, what happens to them? do they stay on campus? is it self-isolated? >> so -- yeah.

if the student is living in one of our dorms, we have 6,500 students in our dorms, we have capacity for over 8,000, but kept it lower. anticipating some of this. if they test positive and they live in the dorms, we have, we've got any number of isolation spaces. even if they are contacted and they're a close contact or suspected they could have come close to someone who had tested, who ended up being tested positive, we have spaces for them. so they self-isolate. and then immediately tested. and so we're managing that right now. the majority of our students who have tested positive actually live off-campus. and so many of them are self-isolating either at home, if they live in this region or self-isolating in their room in their apartment complex. >> hmm. i mean, it's -- it's complex being a, you know, a chancellor during normal times. i cannot imagine trying to manage this, what this is like

for you. i really appreciate you coming on and talking about it. thank you so much, donde ploughman. best of luck. >> thanks, anderson. look at the coronavirus numbers and ask more than 5 million cases, close to 172,000 deaths now, a dismal picture. tally putting the nation well ahead of the rest of the world for coronavirus cases. appalling. many americans agree. a new poll shows 58% disapprove of the president's handling of the pandemic. up ten percentage point since start of the crisis in mid-march. david, poll shows anger, embarrassment over of the u.s. response. talk about what numbers tell us t. does. this is a poll showing president trump's overall ay prival rating a little up a bit, but wlt it comes to all things related to the coronavirus pandemic, it's just dismal. his standing. take a look. whether or not he could be doing more or if he's doing everything he can. we asked, what americans thought

about that. 62% of the country in this poll, saying the president could be doing more. that's up from when we asked that in april. that's going in the wrong direction. you mentioned embarrassed. nearly seven in ten americans in this poll. 68% say they are embarrassed when they think about the united states response to the pandemic. and angry. it's not just angry. it is very angry. a majority in this poll, 51%, say very angry, but add that variant what together, 78%. more than three quarters of respondents in the poll somewhat or very angry the way things are going in the country today. finally, the notion of whether or not the worst is yet to come. we've seen for the first time since this all started an actual uptick. every month it had been going down. now an uptick overall. look, anderson pup see it across every party. republicans up thinking worst is

yet to come. democrats up. and independents are up. it's across the board here and the first time each month it was ticking down. people thought things were not going to get worse or at least it was going in the right direction and now we're seeing this uptick that people think the worst is still yet to come. >> still such a stark difference between republicans and democrats in terms of the severity of it, but still see uptick in republicans is interesting. david chalian, appreciate it. thanks. >> sure. as new york sets major restrictions on gyms reopening, speaking with two gym owners suing the state. how countries run by women seem to be doing wealbetter wite coronavirus. and the president saying to cancel using goodyear tires. we're here to help- utilizing our resources as one of the nation's largest banks and a local approach with a focus on customized insights. so you're ready for today.

i'm looking for my client. i'mi'm so sorry.nt. hey! hey man, you're here! you don't trust me here in vegas, do you? uh, well, i thought we had a breakthrough with the volkswagen. we did, yeah! we broke through. that's the volkswagen? that's the cross sport. wow. seatbelts! please just tell me where we're going.

starting monday, gyms in new york are able to open, one-third capacity. user information provided on sign-in, masks worn at you times, cleaning, social distancing and inspection from local health institutions. some areas could be delayed. governor leaving it up to locals to make those decisions. brent and nicky, three out of four of their gym locations set to open monday. thanks for being with us. you are, i know, suing the state over reopening action. you took this before governor cuomo gave the green light for gyms to open. are you continuing with the lawsuits now? >> yes. we are. you are correct. we did not -- we started our lawsuit prior to the

announcement on monday. guidelines of reopening. look at the histories throughout the reopening phasing, long and painful and unfair process, really. back in april the federal guidelines was part of phase one. fantastic, knowing all the health, mental and physical benefits we provide. soon as it was announced i got to work and provided a detailed proposal, after 20 years, more than 20 years in the fitness it industry, we had a lot of protocols in place prior to covid. so the protocols i put together, put it to the county, and the state of new york, may 1st. implemented it them in our locations. so we were ready to go. very disappointed in exclusion from phase one. without any direction. you have to remember, though, it wasn't, you're not in phase one, you get to open now. it was, you're not in phase one and we're not going to talk about you. phase two was, in the state of new york, phase two was professional services. and we were once against

excluded and phase three was personal care. and we were once against excluded. so that is when i looked for legal recourse and talked to my local officials. ryan mcmahon, county executive here in our county was fantastic. and he communicated very well he had no information and nothing he could do, besides talk to governor cuomo's office to help us get reopened. i did retain an attorney in phase three, but it wasn't until phase four when the official exclusion happened that we filed our lawsuit, back on june 29th. >> financially, obviously, this has been devastating for gym owners, for bar owners, restaurant owners. it's -- it's, you know -- it's unimaginable. the reopening, only allowed under very strict standards. do you agree with the new standards? >> so a lot of the standards were in the proposal i submitted

back on may 1st. we already had them in place, we could open. i wish other industries, put the guidelines out, let us reopen the next day. i believe because of needed health inspections we're forced to wait an additional week to reopen but we have two weeks after we open to get that health inspection. really we are ready to open. there are some things that i don't agree with, but we have to comply with. we owe it to our business, we owe it to our members and owe it to our employees to meet these standards so they can have a safe and healthy place to work and exercise in the state of new york. if you look at the -- there's very little industries that were forced to change air felters back when malls were announced to open, that was a factor. they were given parameters of m-11 to m-13 filter. when that happened, i purchased m-11 filters for my facilities in the hopes gyms would be next and we would be open if had

trect filters. bowling alleys, they had no filter requirements. i was -- curious what cuomo did. a higher restriction on health clubs than any other industry announced. >> how hard has this just financially been? >> it's been tough. shut down was march 16th. we are about $400,000 behind on rent. we have lost $25,000 on our eft bill and lost countless future customers and current customers. we've lost countless employees that just won't come back. part of the problem is it's, we're not like any other industry. we are -- the government of new york has said that gyms are technically bad or they're just a high probability of getting infected. scared a lot of people. scared employees. scared our members. in the gym business, you're trying to ramp things up.

pre-sale is ramp-up. now we are basically starting over with full overhead. our rent in his building is $3,700 a month, per month. >> one location. >> so we're asking for anything other than the rest of the community got. we're asking for guidelines, which we now have. we agreed with 99% of the guidelines. we'll do anything, just let us open, manage the process and we promise we'll make it safe for our members. >> and invested -- >> in new york city, the mayor here said, is may be even longer, because they don't have a lot of health inspectors. focused on schools. got to tell you, i have never realized how much i miss gyms as i have now. so i am, like, wasting away here. i -- i hope you get to open soon and i hope you're able to, you know, to recoup some of the loss, brentd a and nicky, appreciate your time. >> thank you. researchers create a reusable mask made of silicone

fared better than those led by men. anderson? >> everything, thanks. president trump asi suing another state. and a ban or goodyear tires even though he rides in them. and winning a republican primary a bigoted conspiracy theorist wins another one in florida. -always have been. -and always will be. never letting anything get in my way. not the doubts, distractions, or voice in my head. and certainly not arthritis. new voltaren provides powerful arthritis pain relief to help me keep moving. and it can help you too. feel the joy of movement with voltaren. feel the joy try wayf♪ r. you got this!

a senate committee led by republicans blow as hole in the president's claim the russian investigation was a hoax. among damning revelations, suggesting the president lied to robert mueller about his contacts with roger stone, his campaign chairman did collude with russians and showing affection for vladimir putin goes way back. talk about it all with jeffrey toobin, author of a fascinating new book "true crimes and misdemeanors: the investigation of donald trump." jeffrey, the book goes into great detail on most if not all of this. what's your biggest takeaway from the senate intelligence report and pointing out again, this is a bipartisan report. >> anderson, i think what the senate intelligence committee found really reinforces and frankly makes worse what mueller found. i think to me the most interesting connection involves paul manafort.

the campaign chairman, and he was in close contact with this fellow constantine kalennik was in fact a russian spy. meeting with him, giving information to him while involved, and i think the thing so interesting about manafort's role is that it doesn't just include russia. it includes ukraine. as you go forward and you see the president's obsession with ukraine and desire to use ukraine to help win this election, the 2020 election, it all begins with manafort and manafort's ties to the pro-russian part of the ukrainian political world. ukraine and russia are all one story. they're not two separate stories. >> so what did robert mueller possibly get wrong or incomplete? you write a lot about how he

dealt with the president's legal team, didn't subpoena the president for an in-person interview, settled for written answers's did mueller get played? >> i think on those two issues he did. i think in fairness to mueller, you know, he has a very extensive report on the degree of russian assistance to, to the trump campaign. when you look what they did with social media, and especially what you look at what they did with hacking. and the russian military stealing email and stealing john podesta emails and releasing them through wikileaks. the tantalizing information which frankly is still tantalizing from this report is that he can't quite make the connection between the trump campaign and the russians. we have the russians reaching out and doing all of this for mueller, i mean, for trump, but

neither mueller nor the intelligence committee can quite close the deal and in proving that the trump campaign was in contact with the russians, and encouraging this activity. >> hmm. fascinating. jeffrey toobin, thank you. new development involving improvement therapy pushed by the president by ceo of my pill pillow. u.s. army responding. what's behind a growing number of americans who say they will not get the coronavirus vaccine? are you packed yet? our flight is early tomorrow. and it's a long flight too. once we get there, we will need... buttercup! ♪

president trump calling for a boycott of goodyear after an employee complained the company wouldn't allow him to wear a mega hat to work. this started the firestorm. obtained from a goodyear employee in topeka, kansas. showing a slide from a training session and black lives matter and lgbt clothing acceptable but all lives matter and maga hats not aloud. goodyear said it wasn't sent from the corporate office. the statement went on to say the company "wholeheartedly supports equality and law enforcement and will continue to do so." still the president tweeting not to buy goodyear tires. joining me, ohio democratic senator, who joins me. goodyear, headquartered in your state. when you hear the president of the united states encouraging a

boycott against an american company and employs huge numbers of people what do you think? >> i mean, your question sort of says it. what do you think? the president of the united states, attacking, a pretty iconic company. goodyear is known far and wide across the world. started in akron. it's a terrific company employing union workers and it's part of -- in many i mean, just 30 miles from goodyear, 40 miles from go goodyear, the president said don't sell your homes. these jobs will come back. and didn't lift a finger when i asked the president to reopen that plan. he's going to pay the price in ohio because ohio workers understand joe biden's about work and donald trump is betraying workers consistently and this is another example. >> do you think ma ghrga attire

should be allowed in workplace? >> i don't care what people wear at work. black livelies matter t-shirts, i'm fine with that. it's up to the employer. but even if the employer says no political statements, it's free speech but that's never a reason for a president to attack an american company and say boycott, instead buy cheap tires made overseas. i don't read into that. as long as it's safe and in the workplace, it's not attire that would effect workplace safety. >> the white house press secretary refused to say, in a briefing, whether the president would accept the election results if he loses. the president has already said if he loses, it's rigged because that's the only explanation for him to lose.

are you concerned about, you know, how he will respond to, if in fact he does lose? >> my concern is leading up to this and it's clear the president is afraid to lose. he talked about moving the election back. he said if too many people vote, republicans lose. i'm secretary of state of ohio. you can do mail-in absentee voting very safely and efficiently. and it's an option people will have in a pandemic of course. then he goes after the postal service and i think he thinks the only way he can win is by this disruption by attacking iconic american institutions. goodyear today, last week it's been the postal service. who knows what it will be. the and he's going to lose and the secret service and the military will make sure that he leaves office.

i'm not concerned about that. but i think it's important he lose in a landslide. he's clearly going to lose the popular vote by millions. it's important to win ohio in addition to north carolina, some states he won last time. it's a very consequential decisive win and his whining will fall on deaf ears. >> do you think the president will win ohio? or do you think biden/harris have a chance? >> no, they have points. i won by seven two years later. i understand we need to move trump voters back to a democrat in my race. we're doing that now and fundamentally because trump has betrayed workers. what he's doing with this union plant, goodyear. taking away overtime for 100,000 ohio workers due overtime because of obama/biden rule on

overtime, department of labor. there are 600,000 laid-off ohio workers receiving $600 a week until two weeks ago and that's gone because trump and mcconnell have refused to move on it. i called on mitch mcconnell to do his job so we can do our job. they can't find jobs and put money in our public schools so they can open safely. mcconnell needs to do his job. we need come back and do that. we should leave our homes this month, this week, and go back to washington and do what we need to do for people. >> the trump campaign released a video showing the president signing his absentee ballot. trying to claim this is different than universal mail-in ballots. he tweeted, if you can protests in person, you can vote in person. you were secretary of state.

in ohio, ohio doesn't have the universal ballots, meaning the state sends ballots to every household, correct? >> no, we have what's called no excuse absentee. it used to be vote by mail, you had to sign something saying you were 62 or disabled or traveling and out of state. now it's anybody that wants an absentee can get them. the secretary of state is talking about sending an application to every voter, and we ought to do at least that. but the republican secretary of state is essentially working for trump now. he's working for the trump campaign and many things he's done to undermine our election system. so, we've got to overwhelm them. my wife and i sent the absentee ballots. either in person or both with absentee ballots, voters should get their votes in earlier because of the shenanigans the

political hack, mega donor put in at the postal service because he's trying to undermine the postal service and election balloting. >> so, you're encouraging everybed to request an absentee ballot. >> i think people should request an absentee ballot now and overwhelm them. overwhelm them in terms of making sure everybody votes early. the postal service can handal, in the holiday season in december, they handle a billion pieces of mail. maybe 60 or 70 million ballots, they can surely handle over a six/eight-week period, the way they can handle over a billion holiday cards. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. new details on the unproven therapeutic that mypillow is using to treat covid-19.
