be happening until sometime late in the middle of winter. it's too bad this has gotten tangled up in other calendar issues. this is the kind of the way science is supposed to go, you do the work, you do the analysis and try to make sure every standard is met and then you try to put something out to help people. i'm still pretty guardedly optimistic by the end of the year we'll have one more or vaccines. >> nearly all polls show president trump trailing joe biden. we'll get more on that from cnn's ryan nobles in macon, georgia. >> reporter: president trump continuing his blistering campaign on the trail. in front of supporters between now and the election. the president made three stops on friday hitting a number of swing states including two stops
2:03 am
in florida and here in macon, georgia, a traditionally republican state where the polls show a surprisingly close race. and the president hitting on all of the big themes he has throughout the campaign. pick on vice president joe biden calling him the worst vice president in history, considering that biden leads in the polls as we get closer to election day. he also talked about the town hall. listen to what the president had to say about savannah guthrie. >> and in savannah, it was like the anger, the craziness. i said good-bye, great job, savannah, good job. >> reporter: it's worth pointing out that savannah guthrie has not disappeared, in fact, she hosted the "today" show on thursday. the president is continuing this pace over the weekend, he's going to be traveling to arizona
2:04 am
and michigan, all states that will be crucial to reelection. ryan nobles, cnn, macon, georgia. well, joe biden's rallies look and feel much different than the president's campaign as we he continues to social distance, face masks and other safety measures. on friday, he held a drive-in rally in detroit. jessic is dean. >> reporter: former vice president joe biden coming to the battleground state of michigan on friday and making the affordable care act and health care central to his closing arguments here in michigan. his campaign believe that is a through line to so many issues driving the race from the coronavirus pandemic, to president trump's response to coronavirus pandemic, to amy coney barrett's nomination process. and remember, democrats ran this focusing on health care back in 2018, when he regained control
2:05 am
of the house. it worked for them then. and the biden campaign feels it will be an effective message this time around. meantime in a town hall thursday night, joe biden talked about a question he's dodged several weeks now whether he supports packing the supreme court. biden said he's not a fan of the idea, but he said he will offer his decision on it before election day. he wants to see how republicans will handle the process before he announces his decision. committing to saying something before election day. this is a voter engagement event in detroit, michigan. the campaign really focusing on states where early voting is already happening. and they're going to send, perhaps, their biggest surrogate out to a voting state next week, that's former president barack obama who hits the trail for his first in-person event for joe biden on the campaign trail in philadelphia. jessica dean, cnn, detroit, michigan. let's get some international
2:06 am
perspective. let's go to natasha. let's go to what we've seen in the united states, of people lining up, some braving -- some or hours and hours on end long waits to cast their ballots. what do you think is driving the early voting? is it enthusiasm? is it the pandemic, is it this presiden presidency? >> yes, i think it's all those things. i think it's an election that will have record turnout. we're seeing 21 million people have capacity their votes early. that's 3.3% of the total vote counted in 2016. we're also seeing that this seems to be favoring democrats. they've been vowing their supporters to get out to vote early. we have states like florida,
2:07 am
like michigan, like wisconsin where early voting has reached over 20%. democrats in the state thus far have complained that they have returned 2.5 million more ballots than republicans. now, this is part of the democrats' campaign. they want their supporters to get out early, because they're worried about the way the counting is going to take place because trump has indicated he may not accept the results. the republicans remain confident their supporters are going to turn out to vote on election day. >> it's part of the messaging to get out to vote. let's talk about the very different ways of campaigning that we've seen. president trump as we've just showed, natasha, continuing to hold more campaign rallies in defiance, i must add of his own government's social distancing recommendations, as we've seen since last spring.
2:08 am
and he continues to minimized pandemic. for your view around the world, how is his disregard for the pandemic, is that hurting at all? is there a way of knowing? >> well, his disregard to the pandemic doesn't really affect those who are going to vote for him anyways. they love everything he does. there's nothing he could do that is going to turn the voters off. what in fact it does do, the people hovering between trump and biden, they were uncertain, independent, people who really care about getting a handle on the pandemic and around part of trumble's base think he's being incredibly irresponsible by holding all of these campaign rallies in person, where people are crammed in. they're sometimes not wearing masks. and this is reflective of how he's handled the pandemic in general. he doesn't really care about it and he downplayed. this isn't resonating well with voters who see that one of the
2:09 am
biggest issues of the election is health care and covid-19 and who they think is better able to get the crisis under control. >> and what is clear, i think, as we head into final stretch, some of the more prominent members of the republican party already starting to distance themselves from the president. let's talk about today. today, president trump is campaigning in michigan and wisconsin. two states really showing signs of trouble for the trump campaign. joe biden having a clear leave there. but, natasha, we've been there before, and trump won. how is this different? or is it different? >> it is different because in 0 2016 trump was an unknown candidate we didn't know what will he was going to do and it was a wildcard situation and you also had hillary clinton that was an unlikable candidate in that she never had a 50% liking. also trump calling her crooked hillary, he's characterized
2:10 am
biden calling him sleepy joe but that hasn't really worked. the other thing with the 2016 etle election there was low voter turnout from key demographics that support democrats. what we're seeing with early voting, they haven't wavered much and there are big leads for biden in city states like pennsylvania, like wisconsin, like michigan. and he's really close in the race in florida. so what we're seeing here, these leads are pretty big. and there are a lot of people that have started to change their mind on trump or who won't vote for trump. he's held a lot of his support, 6% of his supporters said they're not going to vote for him in 2020. and he hasn't made up any ground. remember, all of these races were incredibly close, he won wisconsin by 23,000 votes. he won pennsylvania by 44,000 votes. he doesn't need to maintain or
2:11 am
win what he has before but he has to make ground, and he has not done that. >> natasha lindstaedt, always great to get your insights. have a wonderful weekend. >> thanks for having me. despite the pandemic, millions of americans are standing in line around the country to cast their ballot. election day is a little over two weeks. this is how it's playing out it's staggering, really. in georgia, 62% more people have already voted in person, compareded to this point in the last presidential election. in illinois, there's a 400% jump. tennessee and kansas, both up as well. pretty staggering. still to come right here on cnn we covid cases and hospitalizations on the rise in the united states, officials are telling people how to stay safe over thanksgiving holiday. we're giving that advise next. never run dry of...

2:17 am
what pack ka county. >> there are 52 members currently in quarantine. and there are 25 staff members currently out of the work unit with positive covid tests. >> reporter: wisconsin and new mexico are two of ten states that just reported their highest number of cases ever. the numbers are daunting. for a single day since august 14th, 32 states on frieday trending up in new cases. the u.s. just passed 8 million cases of the virus and experts are very worried of the months ahead. >> as we move towards winter and the weather is getting colder, people will have fewer and fewer opportunities to be outdoor. and to be able to just naturally social distance. we're going to be creating opportunities, more opportunities, for this virus to spread. it is a dangerous moment in history. >> reporter: experts say, this year, even with so many
2:18 am
americans desperate for some time celebration, holidays will have to be scaled back to combat the virus. the cdc has just issued new guidelines for how americans can stay safe at thanksgiving. among them, assess the infection rates in your community. consider postponing or cancelling activities. think about having outdoor dinners weather permitting, or hosting virtual dinners. mask wearing and distancing are more important than ever america's leading voice on infectious disease says and he's becoming inpatient with people who aren't doing those things. >> if you think about getting infected and pooh-poohing the modalities that you're living in a vacuum, no, you're becoming part of the problem. >> reporter: but dr. fauci said it's still not too total to turn the tide with what will happen in the fall and winter. if americans act responsibly if state and public officials sake good health measures and he
2:19 am
emphasized all of that can be done without shutting the country down. brian todd, cnn, washington. >> with us now to talk about this with at london public health university. london. thank you for joining us. as we've seen the numbers in the united states to start off with are pretty staggering. 8 million cases. 8 million, up from 7 million, just three weeks ago. this seems to be moving faster than the first wave. why is that? >> we are further along now into this pandemic. and there is a real sense, weariness among many people about the extent of restriction that's had to come into play. that along with encouraging relaxation and misinformation around mask wearing, et cetera, have all fed into accumulation
2:20 am
of cases, due to behaviors. the virus will piece hav, based on how we behave. so we can trace that directly back to unfortunately the fact that some areas are just not following the public health guidance. >> so, when we hear health officials say, look, if we stick to the rules we can contain this, you know, we have misinformation, as you've said. we've also got elements, as you pointed out, covid fatigue. as we see here in europe, as the leaders stop putting pressure and ways to contain the virus in different measures, do you think these measures are enough? >> well, certainly, we have had the introductioned in the uk of this tier one, tier two, tier three system. but as we've already heard, it's unlikely that tier three will really be enough to reduce some
2:21 am
pockets where we've had exponential growth particularly in northwest england. so it's likely that other measures have to commence quite soon to keep things up. certainly something as drastic as a national lockdown as we've heard the p.m. boris johnson repeatedly say he's not willing to do. at the current rate, the 10:00 p.m. curfew, along with other measures, just haven't worked in bringing down the numbers. so it's likely that the concept of circuit breakers will be next in line, in order to really get us in a safer place by christmas. >> do you believe that a circuit breaker is inevitable here. >> i do think this is the direction that we are heading. the numbers will really be an indicator quite soon, about whether it is containable, using these local strategy that is, of
2:22 am
course, preferable in some ways. but from a public health perspective, we have independent stage also pushing for a circuit breaker while we have school breaks coming up soon. this would be a good time to introduce it. >> let's talk about the united states because we've seen valleys now heading up to the u.s. elections, three weeks or so to go to the u.s. elections, we've seen rallies some people wearing masks, and it seems like fighting the disease has become pat of the issue. how worried are you about the politicization of the pandemic? >> there is no argument here that coronavirus has become entirely politicized. with -- and this is actually fed into the issue, this incriminalation that we had talked about early, which is a
2:23 am
disinformation which is slightly different than misinformation. but there's an intentional political strategic point of view in order to destabilize communities. and in this instance, we do see that having the u.s. leader also misrepresenting the effectiveness of wearing face masks, et cetera, at a point when we head into winter where it's critically important for to us keep things -- to slow down the rates of infection, it is incredibly worrying. and it is leading to calling anyone that you disagree with just fake news. and unfortunately, we see that sort of denialism is growing. it's coming from a number of sources. we see this also happening widely coming with political actors, for example, the russians. but also when we talk about online how much misinformation is out there, which can be to people buying falsified covid
2:24 am
medical products, hocus-pocus remedies. so it's really extensive and dangerous for this to be popg e popgated by the u.s. president. >> oksana, have a wonderful weekend. >> thank you. as the u.s. election draws close, president trump has ramped up his rallies. jam-packed with spectators and hardly any masks. cnn explaining the correlation between the crowded spectacles and the spike in covid cases. >> donald j. trump. >> reporter: for president trump's supporters, these rallies have come to represent a show of force against fear. >> it's a 99.9% survival rate. and i am going to continue to live my life. i hope everybody else does, too. >> reporter: for a lot of public health experts these rallies
2:25 am
have the element of a contagion. few masks, lots of people closely clustered together for more than 15 minutes at a time. you can't see the virus but what is happening during a superspreader event? >> it's a rough janl analogy, i think of a camp fire, and you've got people sitting around, not everybody around that fire is equal in the amount of smoke that can get in their face. >> reporter: being outdoor is up to 20 times safer than indoors. but it is still not completely safe. again, think of that camp fire smoke. it drifts and lingers and then travels wherever the wind may carry it. but here's the problem, definitively linking a gallery with this, or this, with a spike in infections can be challenging especially with 50,000 people becoming infected every day. so, to better understand the impacts cnn took a look at data
2:26 am
from a large rally several weeks ago, to see the virus. hospitalizations as you watch this, remember, after someone is exposed, it typically takes about four weeks before they might become sick enough to require hospitalization. june 20th, tulsa, oklahoma. an indoor rally. here was the situation going into that weekend in tulsa. on that particular day, there were 197 hospitalizations in the state. on july 8th had 2 1/2 weeks later, the tulsa department of health held a press conversation. >> in the past two days we've had almost 500 cases, and we knew we had several large events over two weeks ago, we can connect the dots. >> reporter: and then five weeks after the rally, the number of hospitalizations is at 625, more than triple what it was on june 20th. june 23rd, phoenix, arizona, just days after that stop in
2:27 am
tulsa, president trump held another indoor event. this time, phoenix. when he visited, around 2,000 people were being hospitalized daily in arizona, though the number was already rising. fast forward ten days, and that number shoots up to 3,000 cases daily, and that's maintained over the next three weeks. august 17th, oshkosh, wisconsin. take a look at what happened after the president visited oshkosh on august 17th. this time, outside. five weeks later, the number of hospitalizations rising by nearly 20% and continues its upward climb. as far as the recent rallies go, florida, pennsylvania and iowa, well, they've all been within the last few weeks so we may not have seen the impact on hospitalizations as of yet. >> there's no doubt that has been transmission at the protests, the political rallies. it's just a fact that the virus doesn't discriminate. it will find a new host in a crowd that's there, if you're
2:28 am
gathering together in a large group of people. there has almost certainly been transmission. it is impossible, very difficult, to visualize that transmission or document that transmission, when there is so many people attending these events and then they scatter back out into their communities. >> reporter: on saturday, the president is heading to jasonviljaso janesville, wisconsin, about an hour away from where the 500-wood field hospital has been erected. a foreshadowing of what may to come. despite a spike in cases, some leaders lashing out. coming up, we'll find out how prime minister boris johnson is responding. >> and as numerous french cities now face nighttime curfews, we'll go to paris to find out how the new restrictions are working. you are watching cnn.

♪ welcome back to our viewers in united states and right around the world. europe is fighting a difficult battle with coronavirus. one that is getting worse each day. new infections are spreading quickly, and now far exceed the rise of new cases in the u.s. that's what johns hopkins and the world health organization are reporting. here are just some of the latest headlines for you. italy reported more than 10,000 new cases friday, that's a record high for a straight day. that's more than any recorded at the peak of its first day in march. russia reported a record number of new infections. cases have surged there in the past weeks, breaking records of single day increases almost
2:33 am
every day. german chancellor angela merkel has cancelled a huge summit in berlin as cases rise. and in france, trying to stop infections from spreading setting nighttime curfews now in effect. even as cases in northern england spike, local leaders are pushing back against government restrictions there. that ranges from lax to nonexistent. cnn's scott mclean explains. >> next, please. >> reporter: almost every week it seems there's a new government slide show in britain. the charts, graphs and bullet points change, but the warning is the same, the coronavirus is making a comeback. in response come stricter rules like outdoor social gatherings limited to six, pubs forced to close early and masks made mandatories in shops and public transit. and in the capital, a surge in
2:34 am
new cases has forced the government to raise the level to high risk, meaning anybody will be barred from socializing with anybody outside of their doors. local counsel leader darin rodwell notice not everyone was following the rules as local bylaws officers don't have the power. >> i can find somebody to find a mask on the floor. but i can't find somebody to not wearing a mask in a closed space. the government is making the rules but not enforcing the rules. >> reporter: rodwell is trying to use big grocery chains to comply. >> there's two ways to beat the pandemic, first is education, second is enforcement. there's the mixture of the two. >> carrot and stick? >> carrot and stick. >> reporter: police have issued only 89 fines for not wearing a mask. only 15 fines for violating the
2:35 am
rule of six. and 38 fines for those failing to quarantine. a recent study also found less than 1 in every 5 people legally required to self-isolate actually did. as the number of cases has skyrocketed, the prime minister has repeatedly promised stricter enforcement, offering police officers more money and even more help. >> it's effectively, engage, explain, encourage, and last option, enforce. >> at this point it seems like enforce meant is so care that the rules become optional? >> no i disagree with that. the rules are the rules. how awe ply the legislation is another matter. if they're out there and they're asking people to comply, and they do, that's all we need. >> reporter: yet, that's not the message we heard on the street. do you think police are being strict enough on coronavirus rules? >> no, they're not.
2:36 am
>> i haven't seen any policing the rules, to be honest. >> i think they need more enforcement. they need to recruit more people. >> reporter: the town near manchester is a virus hot spot with harsher restrictions than the rest of the country but no stricter enforcement. >> i think they're taking a softer approach. i think if we made some examples of prolific offenders that would give reassurance. >> you think the kid glove approach is not working? >> i see no evidence it's working. there needs to be consequence. that simple. >> reporter: police in oldham say they're working with businesses it do their own enforcement but -- >> it's actually the role for the police, where just giving out fines isn't the best. >> reporter: ultimately, she says there's another reason police aren't more strict. >> you don't develop a
2:37 am
relationship with the public by being overly authorizive. and bearing that. the were british government announced last week, almost $18 million in new funding to help police enforce controls and step up enforcement of coronavirus restrictions. the money also enables local counsels to afford marshals to remind the people what the rules actually are. more more on how the restrictions are being received. let's bring in salma abdelaziz in manchester. salma, there's been a bit of a standoff between the mayor and boris johnson. manchester still not entering the higher level of restrictions. where do we go from here? >> reporter: it's a truly
2:38 am
extraordinary standoff, isa, after boris johnson came out and encouraged the governor to re-initiate with the residents. and so far, it does not seem that there are any meetings scheduled between the government and local leadership here in manchester. so it remains to be seen what will happen next. but essentially the mayor's argument is two-fold. first, if you're insisting that we provide this higher tier that you provide the economic packages that will support businesses. second, why is it that we have it do these small regional lockdowns when the government's own scientific advisers say they should do a nationwide lock down. meanwhile, a three-tier restriction is going across london. no meeting friends at pubs, bars or restaurants. the mayor has said he
2:39 am
understands the economic impact but this is necessary. he's also one of those calling for a nationwide lockdown. while all of this political vowing is going on, the number of infections continues to rise. >> thanks very much, salma. another european country, france, has seen an exponential rise in new infections. ten now, and it began friday at midnight running daily from 9:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. this comes as 6,000 new infections on friday. we'll go to melissa bell to paris. how has the infection been seen in paris? >> reporter: so far, it's proved controversial because, isa, so many businesses are affected by this. if you imagine, everyone has to
2:40 am
close from 9:00 p.m., you're talking restaurants, cinemas. all the businesses until now tried to claw back the losses they made during france's two-month lockdown during the spring. very unhappy having this burden placed on their shoulders. and it isn't just a burden for them. when emmanuel macron announced the curfew for the ten cities involved, he explained they would see the first sort of help in the lockdown in the first. the salaries of employees, salaries of employees and state financing. in with the first lockdown, these measures however determine that the government is trying to avoid a second lockdown. with each of these measures, a curfew a very drastic one is adding to the difficulty of trying to get this country back on its feet. but what the authorities explain, it is all about protecting these itus, and that difficult balance that governments are trying to strike, isa, between protecting the public health and trying to
