2:01 am
world. i'm kim bruin humaner. this is "cnn newsroom." ♪♪ the push to vaccinate all americans is hitting a wall of resistance just as cases once again are rising from coast to coast. we're seeing covid-19 outbreaks in every single u.s. state for the second day in a row. areas with the lowest vaccination rates are at the most risk. 48.5% of the population here is fully vaccinated, when looking at the latest data from the cdc, the problem, herd immunity might not cakick in until 70%. angelinos are told to wear masks indoors again if they're fully vaccinated. the more infectious delta
2:02 am
variant is making matters worse. paul vercammen is in los angeles. >> reporter: the covid-19 numbers in los angeles county started heading back up in the wrong direction, 462 hospitalizations, 11 new deaths and that positivity rate leaping now to 3.7%. it was just 1.5% on the fourth of july. so there's a lot of debate about this new rule that mandates wearing masks indoors at restaurants, movie theaters and the like, and a lot of drama unfolding here, this is patty's restaurant in taluca lakes, the headshots in the shadow of movie and television studios. here there's a lot of unscripted, healthy debate about this. most people say they are willing to wear the masks again indoors but you'll see great guides at one table, a husband vaccinated, a wife who is not. >> i think it's good.
2:03 am
i think it protects people. i think anything to protect people and i don't mind the inconvenience of doing it. most of the time i'm outdoors anyway so when i go into a market or something, i put the mask on. i got it in my back pocket and we go from there. >> i don't like anything that's mandated. i haven't seen the evidence to show that it protects you, the virus is so small. show me the science. not just what people, you know, what the media says. i think if you have cold symptoms, any kind of symptoms, you should be honest and wear a mask to protect others. >> reporter: also jumping onto the stage, the l.a. county sheriff alex villanueva said "forcing the vaccinated and shows who already contracted covid-19 to wear masks is not backed by science." he said "the underfunded/defunded sheriff's department will not expand our limited resources and instead ask for voluntary compliance."
2:04 am
it remains to be seen how all this is going to play out here in tinseltown and points beyond. i'm paul vercammen. back to you. u.s. vaccination rates have barely budged recently. president biden is blaming social media, facebook in particular. dr. anthony fauci agrees that misinformation is a problem. here's what he told cnn's jim acosta. >> disinformation and misinformation is really a problem. when we go out into the community and ask people why they don't want to get vaccinated, very often they come back with things that are really just not true. so that's one of the things dr. vivek murthy the other day made an appearance at the white house press conference and stressed the importance of countering misinformation with correct
2:05 am
information and that's really what we're trying to do, jim, to get out there with trusted messengers to get people to understand the facts about vaccine. the numbers that you mentioned, jim, are striking. you can't run away from those. 99.5% of the deaths that occur from covid-19 are among unvaccinated individuals. that's a striking statistic that -- >> reporter: people don't believe that. dr. fauci, people are out there who don't believe it. >> well, it's the truth. well, unfortunately, that's when you get into the misinformation, jim. people don't believe something that is absolute statistical facts that are collected not only by the cdc but by every organization that looks at this. >> it's not just social media, though, the most watched television show on fox news right now is outright hostile to the vaccine and this environment. do you think we could have eradicated polio or defeated the measles if you had fox news
2:06 am
night after night warning people about these vaccine issues that are just, you know, bunk? >> well, that is a very good point, jim. if you look at the extraordinary historic success in eradicatiin smallpox and eliminating polio from most of the world and we're on the brink of eradicating polio, if we had had the pushback for vaccines the way we're seeing on certain media, i don't think it would have been possible at all to not only eradicate smallpox. we'd probably still have smallpox and probably have polio in this country if we had the false information that's being spread now. if we had that back decades ago, i would be certain we'd still have polio in this country. >> on monday, england kicks off a huge risky experiment by lifting social distancing restrictions.
2:07 am
not everyone's happy and london's mayor says it's still mandatory to wear face coverings on public transport, because life isn't back to normal yet. the delta variant is fueling a surge in new infections. on saturday the uk reported more than 54,000 cases, the highest number in six months. phil black joins me from essex, england. everyone's talking about one specific case of covid, the uk health secretary who tested positive for covid, what's the latest on that, and the repercussions that might have for boris johnson? >> reporter: it means on freedom day, the health secretary will not be free. he will be stuck at home isolating. it's an uncomfortable position for him to be in. he's supposed to be guiding to a significant degree england's entire response to the pandemic and he's a big fan in a policy sense of freedom day, the lifting of these restrictions. technically under usual
2:08 am
circumstances, everyone who is identified as a close contact, someone who has had face-to-face, recent face-to-face contact with him would also have to be isolating as well and we've learned this morning that both the prime minister and chancellor have been contact traced and confirmed as recent contacts but they will not be isolating. we are told instead they will be taking part in an already existing test program which replaces isolation with daily covid-19 testing. this is not an option available to the british broader public but it turns out it is available to the prime minister and the chancellor ex-checker and they are taking advantage. all of this is a powerful reminder the circumstances the uk is in as england prepares to throw away the pandemic rule book and it shows something we
2:09 am
new, the it el ta variant is so transmissible it can reach anyone. >> absolutely. now turning to the big picture for the vaccine rollout, there is some good news there, i understand. >> reporter: the government has met a milestone it set for itself, to have offered every member of the adult population across the uk at least their first days by the end of july. that does not mean needles have gone into the arms of every ad adult. the more detailed statistics show around 68% of the adult population is fully vaccinated, two doses. the remaining 32% has had either one or none. the number of people fully vaccinated is continuing to grow every day. it is not growing among people under the age of 18, the rollout doesn't include people aged 12 rein 17 unlike other countries.
2:10 am
the key context as england prepares to do away with restrictions and embrace a model of personal responsibility as opposed to the government telling people what they should be doing, the overall vaccine coverage doesn't cover a third of the uk's population. and that is why, one of the reasons why many critics proceed with unlocking while being in the middle of the surging wave. even the most conservative, optimistic modeling suggests you're looking at millions of people falling seriously ill over the coming months and eastern if those people are helped to some degree by vaccine coverage when we see less serious illness, ir'still talking about thousands of people perhaps many thousands of people needing treatment in hospital. >> we'll follow the course of so the called experiment. thanks, phil black in essex, england, appreciate it.
2:11 am
a frightening situation in washington saturday night abruptly ended the major league baseball game between the national answer the padres. it was the middle of the sixth inning when gunfire erupted. the players suddenly left the field and fans began rushing for the exits. >> ladies and gentlemen, your attention please. the action is outside of the stadium. >> three people were wounded when people inside two vehicles got into a shoot-out on a nearby street. cnn's chris cillizza was at the game and says it was many machines before anyone knew what was happening. >> reporter: they were supposed to do fireworks after the game tonight, so i think most people didn't think anything of it. suddenly a lot of people in left field started trying to get out of the center field gates and
2:12 am
for the next eight to ten minutes i think people, no one knew what was happening. you saw people hiding, we were crouched behind our seats down the third baseline, and not a lot of information. the players were taken out of the dugouts, some came out to get their families and grab them and bring them under the stadium so there wasn't any information. eventually they came over the p.a. and said they believed the shooting was outside the stadium. >> the remainder of the game was suspended and will resume sunday afternoon. floodwaters are receding in western europe revealing the extensive damage left behind. we're live in belgium next. fears that dry lightning could spark more wildfires in the western u.s. on tops of dozens of fires ravaging the region. details are head. please do stay with us.

the human toll is more devastating. 160 people are confirmed dead and hundreds of others still missing. residents of the once scenic town of altanar are banding together to clean the wreckage. atika shubert has more. >> reporter: all day helicopters circled the once picturesque town, now choked with debris, cut off from neighboring towns without communication. >> i'm happy that i'm alive. >> reporter: this is home for deborah stretch but her family in the uk had no idea she survived until they saw her on tv, now she's delivering fresh cups of coffee to keep spirits up. >> i came over the mountain, down here, and then i just saw oh my god -- unbelievable. we were just all crying, everybody. it was awful. it was really, really terrible, and everybody's walking towards me, this is our little town.
2:18 am
it's gone. it's just gone. >> reporter: residents try to clear what they can, working with firefighters, police and soldiers. but the closer we get to the river, the greater the devastation. on a hotel wall, the historic marker of the water level of the last great flood in 1910, that is now dwarfed by this catastrophe. to give you a sense of scale, i'm standing at the banks of the river. this hotel right beside it had water all the way up to the third story. you can actually see the water line right there, marking just how far up the floodwaters got. this was no ordinary flood. the water took out chunks of the road, sweeping through the local cemetery. at least one house was carried away by the flood. neighbors told us the body of the person who lived there was later found in a hillside vineyard.
2:19 am
restoring critical infrastructure is a top priority to get the help the town needs. "we're trying to make this road passable again. explains first staff sergeant fenning. "over here there is a railway bridge completely unusable and this side damage, but we're taking the material to stabilize that bridge and facilitate movement of heavy equipment." not until we come around the bend we see the sheer scale of their task. this here is a railway crossing and that explains what we see over here. the river swelled so high, so quickly, that it was able to tip over the bridge holding up the railway line. you can see all of the trees, the debris that it had collected further up river. it just became this wall of
2:20 am
water, knocking down everything in its path. this is a scene of destruction that is just incredible. this town has never seen anything like this. for generations, this town has lived off the river and all that it brings, but now, as extreme weather hits this once tranquil valley, the waters have turned against them. atika shubert for cnn in altanar, germany. in hard-hit belgium, residents are combing through what's left of their homes and businesses. let's bring in journalist chris burris live in belgium. just looking behind you the devastations there for all to see. what is the latest where you are? >> reporter: the latest is the digging out continues but also a question of the electrical facilities, the water, the gas and over my shoulder, you just see i'm driving off now but that's the electrical company trying to restore the power.
2:21 am
as of last night the electric company says about 40% of homes here had electricity and what is slowing them down is lots of electrical switching boxes, 40 of them across the town, many of them were so flooded and damaged that they're going to have to fix them, repair and replace them over the next sfrl days. people looking out their windows and confirmed they do not have electricity. they have water but that's it. when it comes to water even you have to watch out for that. the government is saying online check your water company to make sure the water is drinkable. if not, use bottled water. it is an ordeal as far as that is and also a question of digging things out and over my shoulder the piles of wreckage there under the bridge, not one but two cars under all that
2:22 am
wreckage and you see that throughout the town, lots of piles of furniture and belongings lined along the street as people are trying to put together their lives. we saw that yesterday as well. kim? >> unbelievable cars and wreckage behind you. chris burris in belgium, thank you so much. in the u.s. at least 70 large wildfires are burning across 11 states, mostly in the west. the biggest one so far is in oregon. officials say the so-called bootleg fair is scorching about a thousand acres every hour and only 22% contained. dry thunderstorms could spark more wildfires. meteorologist derek van dam joins me now. dry thunderstorms, couldn't be wet thunderstorms to help things out? >> dry thunderstorms are just as they sound, it's a thunderstorm that doesn't produce any
2:23 am
resipation. rainfall would help quell a wildfire but they have these dry thunderstorms out west and the western united states because the environment in the air is so dry. talk about the bootleg fire across central oregon. 1,000 acres burned per hour equivalent to a football field every five seconds, that really puts the scope of this fire into context, doesn't it you? want to know what else is astounding with the bootleg fire is the facts it bushed over 290,000 acres but generating its own lightning. pyro cumulonimbus clouds built from the updrafts of the inferno of the wildfire and it produces its own weather systems almost. you can see the lightning and the flash of light there is theule bootleg fire. here is a foe foe of the clouds towering to 30,000 feet, rides
2:24 am
on the updraft and produces enough electrical discharge it could create lightning and creates the potential for further fire spread. the national wildfire alert level is at its highest it's ever been this early in the season in the past decade so it is just incredible how much resources we are putting into the over 70 wildfires that are burning out of control at the moment. as we go forward into the peak of the season, september to october into california, we are going to potentially exhaust all of our available fire fighting resources, why we're so concerned. western u.s. 95% in drought conditions, exceptional dlout across the great basin. there is rain in the forecast. look at the visible satellite, some of the ongoing burning fires from oregon into central and northern california, de degrading the air quality as it billows out smoke from the west to the east.
2:25 am
hazy sunsets akroz tcross the u.s. red flag warnings and watches as we continue our heat west. the dry lightning thunderstorms potential, montana an area of particular concern as we are under excessive seat warnings, triple digit heat for many locations. kim? >> not good. thanks so much, derek van dam. appreciate it. still to come, at least two olympic athletes in tokyo's olympic village tested positive for covid-19, we have a live report next. israel's prime minister argues it's too early to relax coronavirus restrictions even with vaccines. you'll hear why coming up. stay with us. thanks, gary. and for unexpected heartburn... frank is a fan of pepcid. it works in minutes. nexium 24 hour and prilosec otc can take one to four days to fully work. pepcid. strong relief for fans of fast. up here, success depends on the choices you make. but i know i've got this.

2:29 am
welcome back to all of you watching us here in the united states, canada and around the world. i'm kim bruin humaner. this is "cnn newsroom." with five days to go until the opening ceremonies in towing yo more olympic athletic tested positive for covid-19. selena wang joins us from tokyo. selena, just this hour we're learning more about those infected athletes. what can you tell us? >> two athletes and one official tested positive for covid-19 in the olympic village as the number of cases link to the olympics continues to grow, now 55 athletes officials and contractors testing positive. it is critical they contain the covid-19 case in the village where thousands of athletes will be staying. i took a visit where it's very
2:30 am
much an anti social sanitized bubble not like the usual years of festivity and partying. these athletes are asked to dine alone, but medical experts have raised concern these athletes are sharing rooms. i walked through a suite in the village, where eight athletes would be living, four people sharing one bathroom and 110 square meters total. there is a long list of covid-19 rules, kim, for everybody involved in these games. contact tracing, social distancing, regular testing, even though i've been living in japan as a credentialed journalist i'm tested regularly and fill out a daily health app online. medical experts saying it's just impossible to keep the local population completely separate from the japanese public and the public here is still very much opposed to these games. as covid-19 cases are surging in japan, tokyo in another state of new jersey, and kim, just about
2:31 am
20% of the population is fully vaccinated here. these games are not at all what japan or the world was hoping for. it's going to be bizarre. there's going to be no spectators in the stands for the athletes no, cheering, no high-fiving. masks on as much as possible. some athletes have withdrawn citing the spectator ban and the fact their friends and family won't be there to support them in person. kim? >> plus fake crowd noise, five days to go. look forward to it. thanks so much, selena wang in tokyo. israel's prime minister says vaccines alone aren't doing enough to contain the coronavirus pandemic. naftali bennett is warning the vaccines give "significantly less effective protection against the delta variant." israel is weighing whether a possible third dose of vaccine is necessary for those fully vaccinated. davidovic is the director
2:32 am
for school of public health and chair for the health policy program at the taub center joins me from tel aviv. thank you for joining us. as i just mentioned, israel is being forced to sort of change strategy on how the country lives and deals with the coronavirus, because of that delta variant. give me a sense of what's happening in israel. >> first of all, we need to face the public to understand we will continue to live with the virus. although they are specific in cases in deaths, there is no 100% protection and this is why we need the more variant approach. israel is giving a glimpse to the future showing we need to have high vaccination rates and also contact tracing, breaking chains of transmission, lots of
2:33 am
tests and of course having very important strategy around those who are entering from abroad. we need to see how we're not giving health inequality, health population has a lower vaccination rates and investing lots of energies and we need to have integration. we need to have integration in order to have all of our economy open, schools that are open. vaccination are extremely important. we had 1,400 deaths, in january, when we didn't have the vaccine. but vaccination are not enough. and i think that boris johnson' approach that was, actually, negated by many scientists right now is the wrong one. we need to learn to live with the virus but this can be done with many actions, not just with vaccinations. >> but i -- i do want to ask you a bit more about the vaccinations because israel has become the -- the first country in the world, i understand, to
2:34 am
give third doses. booster shots to adults with impaired-immune systems. so based on the evidence that you've seen there, do you think a booster for everyone is warranted? >> no, i think there are lots of misconceptions here. israel -- israel approved only third dose for people that are immunocompromised. we are talking a really tiny minority of the population. those under organ transplantation or suffering from a cancer. otherwise, there is no decision, yet, to have the third dose. and i suggest that people around the world will be focusing about having the first and second dose. we have, in israel, about 1 million people that are, still, not vaccinated. especially, important for those who are above 50. but in general, we have a -- a -- a, you know, a warning sign about global-health governance because the main reason for the situation of variants is because we have gaps in vaccination around the world.
2:35 am
all vaccine nationalism have proven to be very detrimental to our public health and this is something to think ahead of ourself for the future emergencies. >> but we are looking to israel, as you said, it -- you know, israel offers sort of a glimpse into the future. and it was data from israel that led pfizer to announce that the u.s. should authorize a booster shot for everyone. and that had the cdc and the fda here banding together and -- and declaring that wasn't necessary. so, how applicable or -- or universal do you think the data and evidence from israel is for -- for the rest of the world? >> israel is, indeed, a model country. we are very proud of it. we are sharing information. but i totally think that currently we don't need too much -- to think too much about the third shot. we need to think, especially, about the first and second one around the globe.
2:36 am
pfizer is adopting, now, the vaccine for new variants. and maybe, in 2022, we can think about having a modified-third shot. currently, in israel, all experts, including myself, or most experts, are just giving the recommendation for those who are immunocompromised and, maybe, for the elderly, those who are over 65. or maybe, even 80. this is something to think about. but again, this is not first priority. first priority is to have the first and second shot for everybody that can do it and in israel, it's about 1 million people. this is quite a lot. and especially, also, to think about minorities and to think about the globe. the globalized scale, how to create a more equal situation, including here in our region for the palestinian authority and, of course, for other low-and-middle-income countries. this is for the best of all of us and it's a sign of solidarity. covax is good but it's not enough.
2:37 am
>> we will have to leave it there but i really thank you for all of your insights. nadav davidovic thank you for joining us. appreciate it. >> thank you so much. a covid crisis is unfolding in myanmar filled by february's military coup. the country is seeing record-breaking numbers of deaths and the actual numbers are higher after the june ta takeover crippled the nation's health care situation. we have more. >> reporter: miyanmar's junta doesn't care much for human lights. targeting and killing hundreds of democracy protesters and detaining thousands more. the army takeover in myanmar's health system as the pandemic raged.
2:38 am
doctors and nurses left their jobs to join the underground democracy movement. health workers not spared from state violence. now covid is surging across the country. lines of coffins for crem crematoriums like this one in i don't thinkian. >> this is a complete catastrophe. the entire health care system is in shambles. the number of people infected is just going through the roof and no one trusts this junta to provide them with information or health care or vaccines that they need to confront this pandemic. >> joe asked us to hide his identity for the fear of the junta, one of thousands who demanded the return of aung san suu kyi's election winning national lead for democracy. nine of his family are sick with covid-19 including a grandparent in his 90s.
2:39 am
>> it is in criminal denial about the scale of the crisis. before the coup, the system we had wasn't perfect but at least we knew that they were accountable to the people. >> reporter: in larger city yangon, desperate people line up for oxygen, a surge in cases plain to see. despite the junta's failure to adequately count cases, let alone manage them. the smattering of tests the crippled health care system is capable of conducting show one third of patients positive to covid-19. residents have resorted to trying to fill their own oxygen cylinders are scouring social media to locate supplies. volunteers like snowy also a pseudonym say the junta is looking on as people run out of
2:40 am
breath. >> some people died because they couldn't get the oxygen in time. >> reporter: she says she receives five or six requests per hour. she's able to help five or six people per day. >> people are not able to be treated by proper doctors. they just want oxygen supply, which is the only answer for them. so without oxygen, they will be surely dying. >> reporter: in the days just before the coup, myanmar had begun one of southeast asia's earliest covid-19 vaccination campaigns but inoculations faltered after the junta seized power as residents refused to cooperate with military authorities. >> i would rather allow myself to contract covid-19 than have their vaccine. >> reporter: in the meantime, the ministry of health is appealing for volunteers to work in understaffed state-run hospitals. but many fear coming out of
