within his administration where sexual harassment and bullying is so pervasive that it is not only condoned but is expected. boylein came out with her claims against cuomo in december. the governor denied the allegations then and now. his administration responding to the most recent claims writing, quote, as we said before ms. boylein's claims of inappropriate behavior are quite simply false. new york democrat is joining calls for an independent investigation into the allegations against cuomo as the governor faces calls to resign over his administration and handling of data about nursing home covid-19 deaths in the state. at a rally, some women ron kim and meteorologist janice dean called on cuomo to repeal the pandemic immunity related to nursing home hospitals and make public all his communications to those industries. a greater new york hospital association spokesman saying in part, quote, that it is right to protect healthcare facilities except in cases of gross

possible, we want to out vaccinate the opportunity for the virus to mutate. if we can vaccinate everyone quickly we cannot allow the virus to thrive, we cannot allow it to replicate. when it replicated mutates, that is what we need to do, vaccinate quickly and continue our mitigation efforts covering your face, washing your hands, physical distancing. >> the quicker we vaccinate people, reach that herd immunity, the less the virus can mutate and the fewer of these strains we would be seeing and part of that is getting the vaccines out. we have moderna, we have fisa, now johnson & johnson, that single shot vaccine. what do you know about this? when you look at it on the surface level it doesn't appear to be as effective percentagewise but it is just a vaccine. >> correct. it has very good safety profile, it is highly efficacious which means it will prevent you from

being hospitalized, it can prevent you from severe disease, by 85% and in the trials there were no deaths in all the patients, all participants who received this vaccines so it is only one shot which is great for people who don't like needles or not reliable to come back and get the second shot, you don't have to put it in a freezer, it can be restored in a refrigerator and it has been shown to have 72% protection in the united states which is a blessing and we are going to get 3 to 4 million doses hopefully in the next couple weeks if we can get emergency use authorization in the next few days. another tool that will help us fight this pandemic. jillian: we hope we have access to as many of them as possible, that is for sure. we will continue to follow that as i know you will. we have one more topic i want your opinion on. health and human services nominee xavier becerra spoke yesterday saying his priorities building upon the aca, listen to this.
