february in the arctic. and so as a result of that, the. >> ice. >> the land ice on greenland, for example, sheds hundreds of billions of tons a year, enough ice to cover manhattan in ice two feet high or two miles high. wow. imagine two miles thick of ice over manhattan. that's how much is just coming off the land. but what we're talking about is the sea ice, the floating ice. and this is when it's at its highest, as there's there's so much ice built up. and as it comes down, it melts. the extent right now is millions of square miles below what is normal right here. and so we're headed towards ice free summers in the arctic by 2050. and as this happens, the age of the ice disappears. as you can see, this is five year ice. the darkest stuff here at the bottom. i don't know how i just drew on there. >> the five year. >> ice on the bottom, the first, you know, the young ice at the top there. but as we get to 2020 here, anything that's older than a couple of years doesn't exist. >> no. >> yeah. so it could be ice free by by 2050 as we talk about. but this has huge implications for
5:01 am
life on earth. this is the air conditioning of the planet. the jet stream is controlled by what happens. >> that's what i was going to ask you. you don't want anything to accelerate in this way, shape or form. how does it impact how does this melting impact all of us? >> it is, it is. it is a weather engine for the rest of the planet. that jet stream, when it starts to wobble and you get just ice storms in texas, or heat domes that sit for weeks at a time. that is a result of a weaker jet stream. this means higher sea level rise at our ports, bigger storms when storm season comes as well, and ice is like a big reflector, like a like a windshield reflector. and on a sunny day, it reflects a lot of that sunlight energy back into space. as it disappears, that dark water soaks up some more. accelerates climate change. >> i mean, it's almost like it begets like faster and faster. faster change is what it sounds like. >> wow. >> yeah. thank you. bill. that was. that was an eye opening one. wow. thank you so much. a new hour of cnn news central starts now breaking
5:02 am
overnight. >> president trump's new sweeping tariffs on steel and aluminum taking effect just hours ago, adding to the turmoil that has put wall street on a steep decline. moody's chief economist just told me if all trump's tariffs are enacted, the chances of a recession are high. what are americans saying about all this? a new cnn poll gives you a good idea, and any moment now we will see new numbers from a key inflation report offering a peek at just how the president's policies are impacting americans, and an incredible story of survival. a woman found alive after spending six days trapped in her car that had crashed into a deep ditch. the hero who spotted her and acted quickly to get help. i'm sara sidner with john ne-yo. john is out today. kate bolduan is here. working very hard. this is cnn news central.
5:03 am
all right. breaking overnight, president trump enacting sweeping new tariffs on steel and aluminum 25%. europe is europeans are retaliating in a major way. and this morning the huge concern is american consumers who were caught in the middle of all this and could soon be paying the price, literally. let's walk you through this really quick. overnight, the president slapped 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports from all countries. and just a few hours later, europe's remarkable retaliation $28 billion worth of tariffs they now have imposed on u.s. goods going into their countries. bottom line the uncertainty. everyone was already feeling just got upstaged by this word unjustified. that is how the e.u. and close, close allies like australia are feeling about trump's actions right now. as u.s. markets soon open after yesterday's volatile close. cnn
5:04 am
washington bureau chief and political director david chalian leads us off this hour. david, because we have brand new reaction from americans this morning on how they feel trump is doing. these are important numbers to get a sense of how the country feels, which can fuel a lot of different things, like consumer confidence. what are you seeing in these numbers? >> yeah, i mean, donald trump's current approval rating, according to our brand new cnn poll conducted by ssrs, is 45%. his disapproval. sarah is at 54%. he's clearly upside down underwater. any expression you want to use to say this is not where any president would want to be. and if you look though, over time, that 45% number that was actually his high water mark in all of cnn's polling throughout his first administration from 2017 to 2021. >> he. >> all right. we are clearly having some some technical issues. let's see if we can get david chalian back. look at
5:05 am
that. the tech gods are with us. >> disappear and reappear for you. >> you did bring. >> you. >> some magic to the moment. so he is sitting at what was his high water mark as an entire first term. but still clearly upside down. >> all right, so what about the economy specifically? how are people feeling about the job he's doing there and the economy as a whole? >> so if you look at the issue set overall, how is he handling the whole host of issues that we tested? there are some issues. he scores quite high on, 51% approve of his handling of immigration. but you ask the key question. the economy. it is by far issue number one for voters. nothing really comes close overall for americans. and on that score, he's actually performing a tick below his overall approval rating. 44% approve of his handling of the economy. you see that there below his job overall there the economy 44%, 56% sarah
5:06 am
disapprove. he is -12 percentage points on the issue that americans say is the most important. that is not a great place to be. and when we ask though overall how the country is doing, 35% of americans now say the country is doing well, that is actually a slight uptick from 29% back in january. so it's not that this poll is all bad news for trump. there are glimmers here. some issues like immigration, an uptick in how the country is doing. but the report card for president trump on the economy right now is a sour one. and that is the most important issue. >> yeah, the two biggest issues. the economy was number one by far. as you mentioned, immigration was second. he's doing well on one. but really americans feel like he's failing them on the other. the one that matters the absolute most to them. we will see if this changes anything in what he goes forward to do. david chalian, thank you so much. we really appreciate your reporting. sure. over to you, kate. >> well, thank you, darling, this morning everyone is keeping
5:07 am
a very close eye on the futures, of course, and preparing for what is to come with the markets when they open. very soon after president trump's latest round of tariffs kicked in at midnight. and across the board, 25% tariff on all foreign steel and aluminum coming into the united states, both metals used in the manufacturing. so many things from cars to medical devices to food cans, which means higher prices for american businesses, many of them and all, and also american consumers. cnn's vanessa yurkevich xi is here with a look at all of this. what is the impact on all of this? >> well, this trade war just. >> went global. the 25% tariffs on. aluminum and steel coming into the country took effect at midnight. and as you mentioned, so many things are made with steel and aluminum. and if you just look at all the countries that we import steel and aluminum from, i mean, there they are. and that is a big, big number. also to point out that the prices of those steel and aluminum imports will rise, and that will have an impact on u.s. steel and aluminum prices already in the past two months.
5:08 am
steel up 30%, aluminum up 15%. and this is critical, obviously for american consumers because as you mentioned, cars, appliances, medical devices are going to see the impact of these tariffs. eventually. we heard from commerce secretary howard lutnick last night. he talked about what he thought tariffs meant for the economy. take a listen. >> will these policies be. >> worth it. >> if they lead to. >> a recession? >> even a short. >> term recession? >> these policies are the most important thing america. >> has ever had. >> so it is. >> worth it. it is. >> worth it. >> a i don't think the only reason there could possibly be a recession is because. >> of the biden nonsense that we had to live. >> with. >> now, goldman sachs just upped their forecast on a recession to 20% from 15%. the odds are still relatively low, according to them. but people are talking about this. what this means for the overall economy. futures this morning slightly up. they could just be waiting to see what happens today. a little bit of a recovery yesterday.
5:09 am
>> i think futures were up too right. >> i was going to say in the morning they were up. and that obviously changed throughout the day. and if we have it here, it's just interesting to see what the markets have done in the first term and the second term. with trump, we may not have that, but essentially markets were up, up, up, up, up there. okay. markets were up for the first term. you can see it right down there on the left hand side of your screen. markets have turned down just in the first six weeks of his second term. obviously many more years to go. but it just shows the really big difference in what is happening in the first couple of weeks of his administration. we will wait to see what happens at the opening bell. so much can change in so little time. the eu, as we know, just reciprocated against us. $28 billion worth of goods now taxed because of these aluminum and steel tariffs. >> and to reinforce where you began what is really what is new
5:10 am
the the new the new bit about this today is that this is now global. we're not just talking china, mexico, canada. we are now talking global tariffs now being imposed. and what that means, we're now seeing the results with the eu especially. thank you so much vanessa sarah. >> all right. joining us now is democratic senator chris of delaware. thank you so much sir for being here. i know it is a busy time on capitol hill with a cr that's been approved by the house. and now it's your turn to decide what to do. what will you do? >> well. >> sarah. >> thanks for a chance to be on with you. we've got a tough choice in front of us here in the senate. >> but it's important. >> to remember that president. >> trump and elon musk, for the. >> 50 days that they've. >> been in office. >> or that trump's been in office, and musk has. >> been. >> running the government. >> is they've been. shutting it down piecemeal. >> just yesterday, they announced a forced. >> layoff of. >> half of the folks at the department of education. that's bad news for. any american who cares about education.
5:11 am
>> for disabled children, about higher. >> education. >> about a skilled workforce. they've been laying. off people at the social security administration. veterans agency. >> epa, lots of. different federal services that help keep us safer and stronger. i'm going to. >> vote against what came over. >> from the house. >> republicans to. >> the senate. >> last night. because i. >> don't want to give my vote to support what trump and musk are doing. i do think there's real risks to a government shutdown. >> so i respect those. >> who are saying they are concerned that president. >> trump will go. >> even further if we hand. him that possibility, but what's come over, which is often. >> called a clean. >> cr in the talk of the congress, is not clean, it's dirty. it's got. >> lots of provisions that will. >> make cuts and harm. >> organizations and. >> communities all over our country. so, sarah, i think this is a terrible idea. we should instead be working together to
5:12 am
finish our 2025 bipartisan appropriations that we've got ready to go here in the senate and find an agreement that keeps the government open for 30 days while we finish that work. >> while the republicans do not need any democrats to to help them push something through, as we saw yesterday, they do need you in the senate. so we will see if some of your colleagues also feel strongly and the same. i just spoke to moody's chief economist about trump's tariffs, and he said if trump's tariffs stay in place, the chances for a recession are high but could still be avoided. what do you see and what can democrats do if these trade wars go off the rails and and stay in place, creating a recession? >> so, sarah, what i saw yesterday was that president trump really only cares about tesla's stock price. he turned the white house into a car show,
5:13 am
trying to help put a floor under the. plummeting stock value of elon musk's tesla. in the meantime, the stock market has lost trillions of dollars in value in the last two weeks. anybody who's got a 401(k) shouldn't check it, because you're just going to be more depressed. i think we are heading towards a recession because of trump's on again, off again. let's hit all of our allies. let's tariff everything that comes into the united states approach. and he is driving a wedge between the united states and our closest allies and trading partners. my state of delaware exports more to canada than any other place in the world, and imports more from canada than any other place in the world. and the on again, off again double digit massive tariffs that trump has proposed pulled back, reimposed this week, is creating chaos in the markets and uncertainty with those with whom we have close. >> alliances and. >> long standing trading relationships.
5:14 am
>> it was also interesting talking to moody's chief economist about the way in which donald trump came into office and how the economy was doing at the time. donald trump has said the terrible economy he inherited from joe biden. moody's says actually, he was handed an economy that was strong. where do you sit on on this? because they're saying, look, prices are still high. and they were high during the biden administration, but they are currently still high. so who is to blame for where we are right now? on march 12th? >> well, sarah, this isn't a matter of opinion. this is a matter of fact. first, yes, when president trump came in, president biden had left him an economy with steady growth, with all time high stock markets and with inflation coming down, president trump over and over on his campaign trail, in his inaugural speech and in his address to congress last tuesday, said, i'm going to make america affordable again. he said on day one, he was going to
5:15 am
bring prices down. prices haven't come down. in fact, by slapping tariffs on canada and mexico, he's raised prices on things from the lumber that we use to build housing, to the fruits and vegetables that americans buy at the grocery store, and slapping tariffs on all of europe just yesterday will increase prices even more. he said recently that this is just a small disturbance, and maybe for billionaire friends of his, like elon musk, a little bit of a rise in prices is a small disturbance. but bluntly, the markets don't like it, consumers don't like it. and we're already seeing predictions that there will be shrinking growth and a recession this year. >> that is terrible news if it does come true. fruition. you know, i just wanted to remind people of what donald trump said about electric cars not so long ago. let's just put it up on the screen what he said about electric cars, because as you mentioned yesterday, he did have a parade of tesla cars outside
5:16 am
of the white house to show people. here's what he said in 2023. all electric car lunacy and so much more are looking to destroy our great usa. may they rot in hell again. merry christmas! that was his christmas message. that was december 25th. how times have now changed. senator chris, thank you so much. i really do appreciate you coming on and talking us through these. >> and if i might, the stunning thing is that in addition to putting on a car show in front of the white house explicitly to benefit the stock value of elon musk, his billionaire buddy elon musk pledged another $100 million to support trump's political campaign efforts. the public corruption at the very core of this is just shocking. >> and we will let them comment because i'm sure they will comment on what you just had to say. senator chris, i know you got work to do. we will wait to see what happens with this stopgap measure in the senate coming up this week. appreciate you, kate.
5:17 am
>> coming up for us, the lead spokesperson for the office of personnel management, a key trump administration agency. well, she is now under scrutiny and facing real questions, not for any of the government work that she's doing, but rather for her apparent side hustle as an aspiring influencer, a cnn investigation. we have that ahead. and it happened again. another person trying to sneak another live animal onto a plane, a traveler this time caught trying to hide a turtle in his pants while going through security at a new jersey airport liberty. >> liberty mutual is all she talks about. since we saved hundreds by bundling our home and auto insurance. >> it's pronounced. liberty. >> liberty. >> liberty, liberty. nice try kid. only pay for what. >> you need. >> liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty. >> mucinex. nightshift starts working at bedtime to fight your worst nighttime symptoms. how could you and leaves your system

office, pinafore captures video at her desk, putting on makeup, modeling new outfits to her 800 followers. pin over markets close on her account using what's called affiliate links. she could get a portion of any item sold through her instagram page, like this $475 skirt or $300 dress. but it's unclear whether she's made any money. on february 13th, the day 20 people on her communications team lost their jobs, she posted a moment for mixed patterns and the week when her agency demanded all federal employees list five things they did that week. she posted the business woman special as opm spokeswoman. she defended the memo at the time as a commitment to an efficient and accountable federal workforce. >> i would be very. >> curious if. >> she included. >> her efforts to promote her brand as part. >> of the five. >> things that she accomplished that week. >> donald sherman, the chief counsel for an ethics watchdog group, says more than anything,

5:30 am
and chief national security analyst jim sciutto. morning, gentlemen. thank you for being here. jim. how much do you think the dynamic has shifted in the last 24 hours? >> well. >> it's a good question. listen. >> the. >> relationship. >> it seems. >> between ukraine. >> and the u.s. >> has been repaired to a large. >> degree following. >> that infamous oval office meeting, to the point where you. >> have them. >> talking again. >> in riyadh. >> ukraine. agreeing to. >> a ceasefire. >> and, crucially, the. >> u.s. removing. that enormous. >> pressure they placed. on ukraine, which was to stop. >> u.s. military assistance and intelligence sharing, which. >> had a genuine impact. on ukraine's ability. >> to defend itself so. >> that that's that's big, that's significant. the other piece here, though, becomes what. >> pressure is. >> the u.s. willing. to apply on russia, right, to. >> to bring russia to the. table in a substantive way? >> to this point, it's been rhetorical, and. >> it's a notable rhetorical shift to say that it is now. >> up to russia to. >> show whether it's.
5:31 am
>> willing to. >> abide by a cease. >> fire. >> agree to a cease. >> fire. >> etc.. >> is the u.s. willing to to back that with something? trump has talked about. adding further economic sanctions, but it's hard to see how further economic sanctions. would go beyond. >> what are already. >> in place with impact. >> so we'll see. >> we'll see if the if the u.s. >> similarly backs up the pressure. >> on russia for a ceasefire that it was willing to apply to ukraine. >> yeah. i mean, you know, and how immediate an impact would be if it would be sanctions would be the option is it is a good question. and then, josh, you have the initial response, i guess i'll say from the russian foreign minister this morning, was that the way he put it was that the just said the u.s. is returning to normalcy under trump? i think that leaves, per usual, a lot up to interpretation. i mean, how do you interpret that and what do you think russia's options are now or how they view it? >> right. >> well, kate, it's clear that the russian government. sees
5:32 am
this new warming. of relationships. between washington and moscow. >> as not just. >> about ukraine. >> they want a broad reset. >> that includes. sort of. >> dividing the world into. >> spheres of influence for. >> big. >> powers and a withdrawal of u.s. from. >> most of. >> its commitments in europe. and under trump, they. >> just might get that. but that largely is separate and apart from. >> actual russian willingness. >> to. >> stop fighting ukraine. and they haven't shown any willingness to do that at all. >> and i think what zelenskyy achieved. >> here was. >> that he put the spotlight back. >> on the. >> russians to show that if there's no ceasefire, it's putin's fault, not. >> zelenskyy's fault. the problem with the oval office meeting was that it convinced. trump that. the the. >> lack of peace was zelenskyy's. >> fault. >> and he blamed zelenskyy and. >> he punished the ukrainians. now it's on. >> on putin. >> but every indication. >> from the russian. >> side shows. >> that they're only going. to increase the. >> violence. and even the things that would lead to. a cease fire. like that could last, like european troops in, in ukraine
5:33 am
are things that russia has said they'll never be for. so i think the chances of a longer term ceasefire are actually quite low, unfortunately. of course, we all want to see peace. >> but in the. >> end. >> what really matters. >> is that if trump's plan fails, that the ukrainians don't get blamed and that trump doesn't take it out on the ukrainians by getting more ukrainians killed, and that he realizes, which i think is more accurate, that it's the russians fault, not just the war, but also the. lack of a road to peace. >> great point, and definitely an up in the air question right now when it comes to a ceasefire. jim, you know, someone who is very eyes wide open about the history and patterns of vladimir putin are those that he's imprisoned. vladimir kara-murza is a russian opposition politician. you know him well. who's who had been held in russia for years. he spoke with erin burnett last night. listen to what he said. >> i think it is very important to understand that. >> we can only be talking about
5:34 am
a temporary ceasefire. at best. >> it is never going to abide by the civilized norms of international behavior for as long as there's an authoritarian, belligerent, repressive regime in russia, russia is going to continue to remain a. threat both to its own citizens and to the outside world. >> i mean, his point is, is it's pretty pollyannaish to to think that vladimir putin is going to agree to any ceasefire, you know, by the definition of what a ceasefire should mean. yeah listen, you might agree to it. >> does he abide by it? right. and recent. >> history has. >> shown no. >> he invaded ukraine twice in the last 11 years, 2014 2022. >> he he violated. >> every attempt to to broker a ceasefire in the previous iteration. after 2014, the minsk agreements, et cetera. his track record is lousy. and it's not just in relation to ukraine. i mean, look at other countries in europe. he invaded georgia in 2008, didn't really give up there, and is now trying to take over the country, in effect via political interference. and
5:35 am
think of kara-murza, how he can speak with authority. right. because this extends even farther. anyone who challenges putin's power domestically gets imprisoned or killed, and regardless of where they are. right. i mean, putin has proven himself willing to to murder his political opponents and dissidents outside of russia as well. so the track record is not good, doesn't mean you don't attempt to make peace, but you have to make peace knowing that quite recent and concerning history. >> yeah, i think, you know, the end result of the marathon meeting yesterday was that the easiest thing was getting back on the same page with what will be an ally now, you know, back to square, barely back to square where they began, which is what's russia going to do and concede. it's great to see you guys. thanks, jim. thanks, josh. good to see you. thank you. so an expanding search, a widening investigation and a new and new video. now out of some of the final moments before an american

5:41 am
>> and both. >> were better. >> than expected. >> so this. is definitely. >> very encouraging. >> to see. >> because it's. >> going to, i think, relieve some fears. that inflation was perhaps re accelerating because this. >> actually breaks. >> a streak of four straight months. >> where i think. >> you could see it. >> on the chart all the. >> way to the right, where the inflation rate was going in the wrong direction. right. it was. >> going higher and higher. >> finally we're. >> seeing. >> it dip. >> not back to the 2% goal, but. nice to see it cool off here. digging into some of the items here. one thing that. >> i know everyone. >> cares about right now is egg prices. and we did see another. big increase in egg prices. this is just month over month 10%. but believe it or. >> not, this is. >> also an improvement because the month before we saw a 15% monster increase and also more recently, some of the numbers that have come out from the usda on wholesale egg prices have shown an improvement because there's been fewer outbreaks of bird flu and less demand. but here's the big asterisk with all of this, it doesn't really
5:42 am
account for. >> the tariffs. >> right? this is the february inflation report. so yes, it does include the initial 10% tariffs on china but not the 20% tariffs on china. not the limited 25% tariffs on canada and mexico, not the auto tariffs. >> the steel and aluminum tariffs. >> that just 5% tariffs across the board on the. >> reciprocal tariffs. so the question is will all of those tariffs short circuit the improvement in inflation and perhaps make prices go even higher. >> we will have to wait and see. but that was a nice indicator for a lot of people to show inflation ticking down. instead of going up. we will see what happens with these tariffs. thank you so much matt. thank you. really appreciate it kate. >> this morning the world is watching and responding to president trump's new now global tariff rollout. the 25% tariff just imposed on all aluminum and steel imports that set in at midnight. and almost immediately, the eu retaliated, imposing new tariffs on american goods to the tune of billions of
5:43 am
dollars. >> tariffs are taxes. >> they are bad. >> for business and worse. >> for consumers. they are disrupting. supply chains. they bring uncertainty for the economy. jobs are at stake. prices are up. nobody needs that on both sides. neither in the european union nor in the united states. >> joining me right now is candace lang. she is the president of the canadian chamber of commerce. thank you so much for coming in. the eu and the rest of the globe is experiencing what canada has already been feeling for weeks now. from your view, add in now steel and aluminum to what canada is also facing in canadian businesses and taxpayers. how are aluminum and these aluminum and steel imports add it all in. how is it now going to impact canada further? well. >> definitely this.
5:44 am
>> tariff trauma is now taking. >> its toll. and businesses. now are seeing markets are so frustrated with the uncertainty and chaos. and canadians are angry and rallying like we've never seen before. but of course we've never seen canada treated like this by the u.s. before. and our reaction is not just because we feel this loss and betrayal from a friend and ally, but it's because the grievances that underpin this strategy, this trade policy, these grievances do not lie with canada. yet here we are in a trade war with tariffs. tariffs are taxes and they are weakening us both at a time when we need to be focusing on our economic security. >> how are businesses responding in canada to this? i mean, what are they doing in response? and and in really in retaliation? because we've seen we've seen
5:45 am
certain aspects of the response and what to do. you said there canadians are rallying. we've seen american liquor pulled from store shelves. i was just seeing reporting that canadians are boycotting colgate toothpaste as well, substituting it for a canadian brand called green beaver. i mean, i'm wondering how extensive boycotts like that go and what you are hearing. >> well, what i'm hearing and what we're seeing is that behavior. absolutely. in the grocery stores, canadians are checking labels. some stores have to discount american goods because they're not moving at this point in time. but i think to your question from the business community's perspective, just last week, i led a business delegation down to washington, dc because we know that taxes on goods, which is just what tariffs are, an additional task drive up costs of all these things, and they hurt americans just as much as
5:46 am
canadians. so what we talked about in dc last week, the business community is on both sides of the border, is how important the full comprehension of our supply chains are. i can come back to steel and aluminum. there are so many american jobs that depend on the inputs. the and i think alex what's really sorry kate. what's really important is that when you look at what canada exports to the u.s., the u.s. imports a lot from canada. 70% of that is stuff to make. other stuff in the u.s. so when you're thinking about a trade policy that's trying to bolster manufacturing and bring back jobs to the u.s., canada is the number one partner for that, and we're the best customer of the u.s. as well. and we import a lot of goods from the u.s. so i think what is so important right now and the business community is very active on this, is making sure
5:47 am
the integration of our supply chains, how that serves the manufacturing and jobs on both sides of the border is just so important, yet so frustrating, because the strategy seems to be a broad approach. and then a walk back of these impacts on tariffs when when those impacts and regressive aspects are actually felt instead of factored in ahead of time. >> candace lang with the canadian chamber of commerce, thank you for coming in, sarah all right. >> five years ago this week, the world health organization declared the novel coronavirus a global pandemic. we asked you to submit your questions about covid and share your reflections on how it changed your life. our chief medical correspondent, dr. sanjay gupta, is back in the house with us. sanjay, we got a lot of questions about long covid. here is candy from oregon. and she says, what are the statistics for people who have breathing problems long
5:48 am
after having covid 19? >> yeah, this was the most common question. and i got to tell you, just on a personal note, i get dozens of emails from people still every day about their long covid symptoms. so so sort of strictly speaking, long covid is defined as something where you have symptoms. >> that are. >> persisting at least three months after your infection. some say six months, but at least three months after the infection. and if you look at the data overall in the country, about 30% of people who had covid had long covid, so they got symptoms that appeared and they did not go away, at least for several months, tended to be more affected in people who had a very severe case of covid and people who had underlying conditions. so there were risk factors for this. but take a look at sort of the things that long covid can sort of cause, you know, you think about brain fog, fatigue, things like that, but breathing problems to candice's question is also on that list. so this is something that can happen, can also worsen other underlying symptoms as well. so if you had migraines, for example, in the past, it could worsen your migraines.
5:49 am
this can be hard to sort of parse out because there was a lot of things going on in society at the same time. so what is covid versus what is not? but again, a severe infection that has persisted in terms of symptoms. now, the good news is when it comes to breathing problems, for example, if you look at a recent hopkins study, the symptoms do tend to get better, even if it can take a long time. and there are certain breathing exercises which candy you should look up to. try and find some of those breathing exercises you can even do at home, which do seem to make a difference. so potentially some good news. >> there are some online things that you can use to help you sort of breathe in, hold your breath, and then breathe out. >> i mean, you think about the scarring and the inflammation in the lungs. that's what's typically driving those breathing problems that candy's talking about. again, over time, that does seem to improve. >> all right. we've got a question from george from california who says i'd like to know what the latest rules of thumb are regarding vaccinations. i just got a flu and covid vaccine shots in september, and i'm hoping for the best. there is a lot of look, there is a lot of
5:50 am
skepticism about vaccines that has been fueled because of covid and because of some of the folks the hhs secretary included, who have sort of pushed this idea that you don't necessarily need them. right. and now people are starting to question themselves. you hear him there sort of saying, look, i went to get it, but i don't know what the rule of thumb is. >> yeah. so, i mean, he did the right thing in getting the vaccines. and first of all, he mentioned flu and covid. flu has been pretty bad this year. it's probably been the most intense it's been in about a decade. so a lot of people who have severe respiratory sort of illness, oftentimes they're dealing with flu as well. so bo things rule of thumb, generally speaking, is you can treat the covid shots sort of like you treat the flu shot. so you know he's getting a flu shot every year. the covid shot every year. the immunity from these vaccines like you get a measles shot, for example, that can last your whole life. when it comes to flu and covid, the virus tends to change a lot. >> it mutates, right? >> it mutates, which is why you need to get updated immunity from it. now, if you've had
5:51 am
covid recently, then you have immunity for a period of time. they say several months at least. so that's something to take into account. but everyone should be getting their covid vaccines. i will say people who are over the age of 65, people who have an immune compromised condition of some sort, they're the most at risk. so they're the ones that really need to pay attention to this. and when i say most at risk, most at risk for severe illness, a lot of people can get, you know, moderate illness, which can be pretty bad, right? i mean, it can knock you down for a few days, takes kids out of school, all that sort of stuff. getting the vaccine certainly does help with that. >> just quickly, can you get both the covid shot and the flu shot together, like, you know, is that cause a problem or. no. >> no, it does not cause a problem. these are different viruses. so the vaccines are slightly different. you might have, you know, a more sore arm for a period of time. but yeah you can get them both. >> all right. thank you so much, sanjay gupta. it's always a pleasure to have you in the house with us. all right. new this morning, a woman went missing after a car crash. how she survived in a ditch in that car for nearly a week before

5:57 am
she could to stay alive. >> she was in excruciating pain. she was screaming out for help. she was using her hoodie and wringing it to get a drink of water. >> unbelievable. >> we're going to show you this man behind me right now, johnny martinez. he is being called a hero after he spotted her car yesterday and called for help. castle, we're told, was conscious and speaking when she was rescued and is now in the hospital recovering. unbelievable, sarah. >> pretty incredible. all right. this morning, the search is intensifying for missing university of pittsburgh student sudiksha konanki. as authorities say, newly released surveillance video shows her just moments before she vanished while on spring break. in the video, the 20 year old is seen leaving a hotel in the dominican republic with a group of friends and a gentleman you see there. this was in the early morning hours last thursday. police in punta cana say konanki solong cover up was found on a chair on a nearby
5:58 am
beach, adding there were no signs of violence. joining me now is mary ellen o'toole, a former senior fbi profiler and special agent. thank you so much for joining us. i just want to start with some possibilities here. i mean, right now, authorities have said there is no no suspect that they have in mind that something nefarious happened. is there a possibility she went into the water and potentially drowned? >> yes. >> that certainly is a possibility. and it's not unusual at all in a case like this where there are two possibilities or 3 or 4. so it's really imperative for law enforcement to pursue separate lines of investigation so they can start immediately ruling out what it is and what it isn't. >> we're seeing the surveillance video of the gentleman that she was with there in punta cana. the last person we understand to have seen her before she
5:59 am
disappeared. he gave a couple of differing details to police. but police say they were not significant. significantly different. and they're not calling him in any way a suspect. but he is there and is being told to sort of stay in, put, stay put while they investigate this case. i mean, what all does that that tell you, because he is not at this point considered a suspect in any way. >> so great question. so what that tells me is that they're not satisfied with the thoroughness of the information that he provided. and there could be reasons for that. he could be nervous, he could be afraid, or he knows something more. so that's number one. but number two, what's also important is that in the fbi, what we do is we create what's known as a victimology. so in a case like this, we would in the behavioral analysis unit, we would learn as much as possible about the victim. what are her patterns of behavior? is it typical for her to have engaged
6:00 am
in this behavior, had something to drink and then gone with somebody she didn't know very well? or is that completely out of the norm for her? so this victimology you're developing an idea of what this person's habits and behaviors would be and how they contrast with what they might be when you're on vacation. and this becomes important to understand if something happened that's very nefarious or if it could have been an accident. so that victimology, i'm not sure if it's being done. i'm sure the fbi is encouraging it and offering to help. but again, the fbi is not in charge of this investigation. >> right? involved but not in charge. just quickly, i wanted to ask you what you made of the timeline. there were about five hours in between the last time her friends sort of left her. and the last time that the gentleman that was with her right there. 4:55 a.m. the group left, and then five hours later, the young man left the beach alone. what kind of clues
