new contact tracing study out of india finds while children can spread the coronavirus, it's young adults that are the main role of the spread. just 8% of patients responsible for 60% of new infections. welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. thank you for sharing a very busy news day for us. the coronavirus numbers are bad
9:01 am
again. the campaign numbers, too, if you're the president or a member of his republican party. two things jump out at us. $21.5 million. that's joe biden's wednesday fund raising take. his best day of the year following the first presidential debate. the second thing is a polite but direct message of a top senate republican, condemn white supremacy, mr. president. >> i think we should hear them from the president and from every american. i certainly condemn what we have been seeing in terms of white supremacy, racism, anti-semitism. i stand with senator mcconnell and senator tim scott with the comments they have made. >> senator john barrasso is not alone among republicans urging the president. that is very significant because, remember, republicans usually stay silent or shrug off
9:02 am
the president's comments. they fear it will hurt republicans beneath the president on the ballot and every day trump refuses to do so, democrats take a shot. >> speaking of violence, the proud boys, the president's friends, the proud boys celebrating the green light he gave them in the debate? >> this is the pandemic election and the coronavirus is making a late campaign statement of its own. september was another lost month. zero progress in lowering the base loon of new infections. cdc predicts as many as 132,000 americans will be -- 232,000 americans will be dead by the election. more than half states report more new infections now come parred to last week. wisconsin is a campaign battleground and the white house coronavirus task force warning the state of an intense viral
9:03 am
surge recommending people practice social distancing to the quote maximum degree possible. we know that big trump rallies flunk if the answer is wear a mask, keep yourtans and the president is often at direct odds with his on coronavirus experts. the task force urges wisconsin right now do all you can to stop that surge. the president urging his wisconsin supporters to pack two planned rallies there this weekend. let's get straight to the white house and white house correspondent kaitlan collins. on this issue of more and more republica republicans often sigh leapt saying, mr. president, condemn the proud boys and white supremacy and do it clearly. >> reporter: john, it is not just the president. we can't get a straight answer from the press secretary just pressed throw times by three different rotes including myself to just simply put out a statement, put this news cycle to rest, a statement saying that they do denounce white supremacy
9:04 am
and the far right hate groups emboldened by what the president said tuesday night and we are going on 36 hours of this news cycle because the president did not sufficiently do so and not just the critics that think that but his own party, republicans saying the president should have been more forceful with what he said on tuesday night or yesterday asked for a second time given an opportunity to denounce the groups and knowing she was going to get the questions at the press briefing the press secretary did not have a prepared statement to say as much and instead she simply pointed to old statements from the president. of course, that is not the new full picture because they can point to prepared remarks and didn't point out saying not all of those people at the charlottesville event were neo-nazis. but asked to clear this up, this is how the press secretary generally responding to the
9:05 am
questions that we just had for her. >> you say he denounced them on the debate stage the other night. if that's the case then why are they celebrating what the president said on the debate stage in front of millions of people? >> i don't speak for that group so i'm not sure why you're asking me why they're saying a certain thing. >> if denouncing it you wouldn't put it on a badge, right? >> will you ask them to stand down? he said sure. >> reporter: he said stand back and stand by. he did not denounce them yesterday and the proud boys now elevated because of the comments on the debate stage tuesday night is a group that espouses the anti-immigrant, islamphobic misogynistic views, they're a despicable group in pretty
9:06 am
simple terms and the president said i don't know who they are much like with david duke but on camera talking about david duke before and you've seen republicans come out and say that the president should say more on this. the senate majority leader mcconnell who often will not comment even aligned himself with the views of tim scott saying if the president misspoke on tuesday night then he should clarify the statement and if he didn't then i guess he wouldn't be clarifying it and when the press secretary asked if the president misspoke talking about the groups on tuesday night, john, the press secretary said, no, he did not misspeak. >> straight from the white house podium. very important story. it's one controversy right now. getting the president to listen to his health experts is another. the rallies could be super spreader events because they're in wisconsin, the state right
9:07 am
now is a hotspot. look at national numbers. the state case trend right now, bad numbers. the president said we turned the final corner. 27 states right now heading in the wrong direction, more new infections now come parrpared t data last week. look at this swath along the northern half of the country. it is getting colder in the northern part of the country. the case count is going up. 14 states holding steady. nine states going down. the weekly testing map, the deeper the blue, the higher the positivity rate. 26% in south dakota. 21% in idaho. double digits in florida, mississippi, alabama, in the midwest. 17% iowa. 16% kansas. the numbers are bad. higher positivity means more cases now and more people to spread the virus. if you want to look at wisconsin right now, again, we've been
9:08 am
through this seven months. that is not the way you want your case count going. it is a high angle and high. with more cases is more hospitalizations. look at that, the trend up in wisconsin. let's just take a look at the map. wisconsin starting to get more of the deep red. right? a state maybe early on not a high case count. it is growing at the moment and yet, and yet, white house task force said the state needs to do more. the state is having a higher case count. the president has two rallies in the state this week. a doctor in green bay says we need a red alert nationally. >> we are nearing a crisis in my community and hoping that the fact that our community has reached national attention will get people to wake up. currently one hospital out of the four in green bay has more patients than the entire city
9:09 am
had at our peak in april. >> joining is the state epidemiologist for the wisconsin department of health services. doctor, grateful for your time today. let me ask you up front, is there one or are there one or two things sporm for the surres surge of cases? how much is the change of seasons a factor here? >> i think the answer is it's a little bit of everything. we don't have a focal epidemic but a generalized epidemic. we have all high disease activity in all counties. it started in the younger age group. we were attributing that to coming back into session at colleges but we have generalized high transmission in all of the communities and i think you are right. it is not attributable to any one thing but an overall failure to prevent the spread. >> you are wearing a mask as we
9:10 am
have this conversation. i want to listen to your governor in a second. the president is coming to two rallies this weekend in your state. joe biden was making the case to wear a mask, the president says there are people who think just the opposite. this is your governor. >> when you have leadership at the top that is continuing even to this day somewhat inconsistent with the severity of what this is, we're rounding the corner, it is a hoax, it is a big deal, it is not a big deal, that sends a message what we try to accomplish is baloney and it's not baloney. >> what do you need? what do you need from the president of the united states and from washington right now as you deal with this crisis? >> well, support from leaders that all of our prevent strategies, wearing masks and keeping our gatherings lower,
9:11 am
not having gatherings at all is critically important where our local public health capacity is outstripped, falling apart. we don't have the ability to identify individuals. there are too many cases and we need widespread adoption and cooperation around these prevention strategies like wearing masks and skipping gatherings if we turn the corner on this because the ability to do so at the community level, the individual level has really been damaged by the high volumes that we are seeing. >> let's just put it bluntly. you're essentially the ceo of the wisconsin department of health. i want to read this. this is not the fake news, not the left, this is the president's own team of experts. wisconsin continued to see a rapid worsening of the epidemic in the last week. individuals caused growth in infections. although young adults are the
9:12 am
most affected spread to other age groups is inevitable. to the degree possible increase social distancing mitigation measures until cases decline. that's what the president's task force. to the maximal degree possible. should their boss hold two rallies in wisconsin when the scientists telling the people to put on a mask and spread out? >> public gatherings of any kind are dangerous right now. more so than any other time in this epidemic. keeping six feet of distancing and meeting outdoors and wearing face coverings lower that risk. the safest approach is to not have gatherings and stay home. that's what allowed us to turn this around in the spring. we need that adherence right now. i agree public gatherings should

9:17 am
one of the big companies working on a coronavirus vaccine moderna says spring 2021 is the earliest his product might be ready for use but others hope to finish by the end of this year but it's 33 days to the election and 85 days to christmas. the government approval process takes time. but the president at a rally last night in minnesota, well, the president had some math of his own. >> through "operation warp speed" we will develop and
9:18 am
distribute a vaccine in rapid time. will be very, very soon. before the end of the year. maybe sooner than that. >> jonning us is the director of vaccine education center of children's hospital philadelphia. doctor, it is good the see you again. you know the process very well so you hear the moderna news spring 2021. you hear the president very, very soon. we're having this conversation now. 85 days to christmas, 90 days to the end of the year essentially. if somebody today or tomorrow said i think we have reached the efficacy level and wanted to apply for emergency authorization even for distribution to front line responders, how long would that take? >> i think if the data safety monitoring board, the only people that know how this is going, only ones who knows who has gotten the vaccine and hasn't, who's sick and hasn't, so they know about where things
9:19 am
stand, if they feel that we have statistically significant, robust evidence that the vaccine clearly works and at least in 10,000, 20,000 people it is safe then they can say to the company you can submit this for eua and then they will look at the data and then make a recommendation for whether we agree. so how soon can that take? no one knows. when president trump says that he's hopeful that it can be soon he is not on the data safety monitoring board so he doesn't know. he hopes it's true. we have to wait and see. >> when somebody comes forward with a reliable vaccine people will trust it we hope so they'll use it to help us in the fight of the coronavirus. you testified before congress yesterday and you outline the process for us by i want people to listen to what you're testifying before congress essentially saying i wish i didn't have to be here.
9:20 am
>> i don't understand why we have this meeting to be honest with you. we should trust the fda. we don't largely because of what happened with the administration's pushing the fda to do things it shouldn't have been doing and why people are upset about this. >> so there is, there is, you right, there's skepticism out there. we see it in scientists debating what they see coming out of the administration. what can be done at this moment when we watch the case count go up against, across the midwest the double digit positivity, we are in for another tough week if not months if not longer? what has to be done to, a, putt more trust back in the process and so that people feel at the end when there is a vaccine whether in three weeks or three months or a year a rush to get it? >> i think we have to see the fda as an independent body. as doing their job which is to say standing between pharmaceutical companies and the american public to make sure
9:21 am
that we get vaccines or products that are shown to be safe and effective and i think that can happen. i like it when dr. hahn said recently we won't approve the products until they're ready to be approved and go to the vaccine advisory committee to make sure they agree so we can rebuild that trust and the hydroxychloroquine and the convalescent plasma experiences were bad ones and seeing the fda basically serving the administration rather than serving the american public people get skittish and scared. >> moderna trying to lay out the time line. people trying to do vaccines by press release and drive stock prices up and down and the like and they say spring of next year. i think there's a normal hold-up with issues of astra zeneca. you want to take a look at that.
9:22 am
as you watch the process, is this going do you think the way it's supposed to go or do you see things that alarm you? >> you know, obviously this is unprecedented. there are 180 different vaccine strategies out there, more than 100 companies making this vaccine across the world, unprecedented. unprecedented mostly in the way that normally what happens is you wait until the results of the phase three trial and then discuss it. now it's discussing in that period of time which is a little scary for people because you don't really know what's going on and you have the ceo saying one thing and the president saying another thing and then dr. hahn saying a third thing and all very confusing. if we could just stop talking about this until the phase three trials are done would be helpful. yesterday's meeting was a sad day in america for me. i'm on the fda's vaccine advisory committee. i know the people in the fda, exactly who you want them to be and care about doing their job
9:23 am
right and i think it is hard to watch the administration sort of perturb these science-based federal agencies. it certainly isn't to the advantage of the american public. >> i hope they strap in and do their job just as you say they're most capable of doing. grateful for your time. >> thank you. an important fact check of the president's latest election fraud claims. no tomatoes.. [hard a] tonight... i'll be eating four cheese tortellini with extra tomatoes. [full emphasis on the soft a] so its come to this? [doorbell chimes] thank you.

a federal judge in montana strongly rejecting an effort by the trump campaign to stop the expansion of mail-in voting in the state but the judge blasts the president's claim of widespread fraud. this is from the ruling, quote, this case erroring the court to separate fact from fiction, central to some of the trump campaign's contention is that the upcoming election will fall prey to the widespread voter fraud. but this allegation specifically in montana is a fiction. i warrant to bring in cnn election analyst rick hassan. rick, thank you for your time today. i want to ask you, the significance of these court rulings, this is one in montana. there will be dozens if not more than dozens of these challenges and up through the appeals process i assume the trump people will appeal this.
9:29 am
you have to prove from evidence that the first ruling is wrong. how important is it to get the judges on the record saying fiction when the trump campaign says widespread fraud? >> yeah. i think one of the things that the trump campaign tried to do on offense is knock down these expansions about balloting on claims of voter fraud and losing because they can't come up with the evidence. it is not just montana, it is nevada, all over. i think they may have more success trying to roll back expansions of absentee ballot receipt deadlines, postmark rules. we have one in pennsylvania that's there. within coming from wisconsin so i think we are kind of at halftime right now. we don't know where things end up but trying to shut down mail-in balloting on the basis of fraud won't go anywhere. >> i want you to listen to ben ginsburg, he was the premier
9:30 am
republican election law attorney involved in bush v. gore and the like. this morning saying essentially what the judge in montana said. >> the president's allegations of fraud now have to be proven in court. and i know from my gears of looking for this that that proof is not going to exist. >> so you've mentioned the cases in play. if you are the democrats or just a good government group trying to expand voting the early rulings will be critical, correct? >> they will be but it's not just about the fraud issues and that's why i think the trump campaign and the republicans generally may have better success as they work the way up to the supreme court because some of what they're claiming is that state courts take away power and setting election rules, some about the timing and whether the constitution allows for an extension of election day and the arguments are still
9:31 am
being developed so we're in the middle of i think close to 300 cases right now working the way through the courts. it is hard to know where everything ends up. >> because of that, you mentioned there is prurunprecedd and some try to adjust midstream seeing problems play out. this is the president tweeting about new york. 100,000 defective ballots in new york. where? what happens to the ballots first sent? used by somebody. use this end. go out and vote. unprecedented, mistakes happen. can you change them or stuck with what you got? >> so here's the thing. there are five states with all voting by mail, done it for years successfully. when you are a state like new york or a state with very little mail-in balloting, mistakes will
9:32 am
happen and things have to be corrected and the important thing is not to allow small changes or small problems be parlayed into some claim of widespread chaos or massive voter fraud. the president is trying to take small, issues and turn them into a claim that the election is chaotic. it is not. voting in a pandemic. it is not going to be perfect but we have never had a perfect election in this country but it has to have sbeg integrity. >> let's try to sneak this in. the president at a rally in minnesota last night and tried to send supporters to locations in philadelphia, turned away. listen how the president described it. >> i'm urging my supporters to go into the polls to watch carefully because that's what has to happen. i'm urging them to do it. today there was a big problem. in philadelphia they went in to
9:33 am
watch. poll watchers. they were thrown out, not allowed to watch. you know why? bad things happen in philadelphia. bad things. >> from the debate, not from the ramally last night but not what happened, right? >> right. so there are provisions for poll watchers on election day. this was a satellite absentee voting site so there was no violation of the law. pennsylvania election officials are following the rules in that state and again it's the president trying to make something out of nothing and do it for political -- to score points. >> important to follow the facts, the rules and often ignore what the president of the united states says. appreciate your time. coming up, new coronavirus cases hit the national football league. what the playerers association is now saying about the safety of nfl athletes. stir that fire, university of phoenix

changes in the nfl schedule this weekend because of the coronavirus. a fifth tennessee titans football player testing positive for covid-19 prompting the nfl to tweet the steelers/titans game will be moved later in this season. there are five particulars and supersonics staff on the titans that tested positive for covid this past week. i'm joined by demori smith. thank you for being with us. this is a stubborn, horrible virus, sometimes gets us if we're being safe but sometimes it gets people who step outside the protocols. do we know what happened? >> we don't know fully what happened yet, john.
9:39 am
thank you for having me on. this is something we planned for. what you are seeing in the national football league right now is a good partnership between us and the league. it requires vigilance, daily testing, contact tracing. and it also requires swift intervention once we know where the virus is. our job simply isn't done. it is to remain vigilant but i'm happy about where we are, the protocols we have in place and will find out what happened. >> so take us inside this plays out. now we have the example of titans players and personnel, staff members, will reschedule one game later in the season. in baseball, there was a domino effect. you want to try to limit this to these two teams and this one weekend, if you will. what is happening in each of the organizations, the titans, last week to make sure we control
9:40 am
this? >> one giant step backwards, what's going to happen is all based upon protocols and just to be blunt scientific, making scientific decisions back in earlier this summer. we test daily in the national football league. we have all of our players wearing contact tracers and we'll rely on the information and the data that we get from what's happened in nashville. we are checking the players from the team they played the week before but basically the idea is we believe that daily testing just like it would be extremely effective in our country will allow us to quickly identify who tested positive, contact tracing to determine how many people they came in contact with, we'll be able to quarantine, isolate, shut down if necessary and we'll
9:41 am
simply follow the evidence where it leads us. >> trust obviously is a giant issue here and not always. the unions and the management if you will don't always get along on everything but in this -- see, you do know it better than i know it. but there's been remarkable cooperation across the sports leagues because it's health and safety in addition to playing the game that so many people love. troy vincent, the league executive vice president of operations says to play a full season we must be committed to the efforts to mitigate the risk of transmission of the virus. that's a common sense statement there. we have seen coaches fined for not wearing masks on the side loons. as you get into the season, just what's the general assessment of people? are they getting lazy, lax? people more locked? probably would get you more locked in.
9:42 am
>> i don't know. we can speculate all day and you work in a business where you see speculation playing out on a national stage. the union decided back in march that we were going to take a common sense, scientific approach to this. we were going to rely on the experts, on the people who explain to us how pandemics work. we were going to rely on the evidence that talked about how virulent this strain of covid-19 is. and we were going to set up protocols that hopefully protected our players but knowing the level of virus that is out there, the manner in which it is spread and football is a business that theoretically could be designed to spread the virus given the daily work activities of the players and decided early on to have strict protocols and have them be
9:43 am
evidence based. so going forward i'm not going to speculate on what happened. we will be able to do an internal investigation, genetically analyze the people who tested positive so that we can then work back and find out exactly where they contracted the virus. and we'll fix our problems but that's the only way that we will be able to play a full football season. i would also say that if we would have approached this in exactly the same way as a country i know that all of us would be back to work now in the way that the guys are back to work in football. >> we certainly hope that the seriousness of the effort pays off within the nfl, of course. appreciate your time today. we'll circle back and hope it stays quite limited. thank you for your time. >> thank you. up next, new coronavirus warning signs for boston as it

city moved into the red zone for coronavirus risk. they're not advancing in the state's reopening plan because of a rise in cases. the boston mayor marty walsh joins me with more. i wish the circumstances were different here. so you have the highest need students going back. in two weeks, kindergartners and preschoolers. you may have to pull the plug on that but you blame who? >> we are watching our cases here in boston, about half of the cases in people under 29 years old, many of them college students, also the other half in latino communities. so yesterday i think you played earlier i was hard on younger people saying we have to be careful here. last week we are at a 2.0 positive rate, testing rate in the city. many of the neighborhoods in the
9:50 am
city of boston, dorchester, 2.5, 7%. we have seen an up tick here. >> i know the neighborhoods there as you know. i just want to show what you mentioned. the national positivity rate at 4.7%. commonwealth did a good job back to the beginning down below 1% but the city at 3.5%. you mentioned the problems there. how do you surge resources in, latino communities with the language issue and college campuses, your responsibility or up to the schools to do a better job? >> it's everybody's responsibility. in east boston, three weeks ago we saw a 11.4% rate and brought it down. this is a seven-day average and making investment and getting information out to people. with colleges, we send a clear
9:51 am
message to the universities themselves. they need to take it seriously and colleges have sent some students home for the semester. they're implementing tough guidelines on campuses and we don't want to see this surge and 4% we won't be opening schools or going to the next phase. the kids that are in school today will have to make decisions what to do with them so we don't need this right now in boston, to see this spike. i'm hoping it's a one-week trend to see here and then see the numbers go back down. we have not been at 3.5% in 1 weeks in the city of boston. >> what was the health team telling you? just this behavior? again, language barrier maybe in some communities? college campuses? things you can fix or is it -- i guess your biggest concern is getting colder people head inside. that rate up 3.5% and keeps
9:52 am
going and then back into real community spread. >> community spread and shutting down restaurants and businesses and back to where we were in april and may and june and don't want to go there. that's incumbent upon all of us to do the right thing, wear masks, physical distance, to wash hands. the virus is still very much with us and will be for sometime. we ask people to not gather. people have cookouts and outdoor gatherings with more than 20, 25 people in them. a lot of people have lost a lot, including a lot of lives in this country, 200,000 people have died and really incumbent upon us to do our part. >> grateful for your time today. >> met your brother-in-law today at a great school and said to say hello to you, mark. >> he's a great man and glad he's working. >> he is. >> i'll send him a hello back.
