>> molly: brand-new. another health crisis sweeping across the country leading lots of children sick and even hospitalized. welcome back. >> arthel: . rsp cases are searching. the center for disease can saying that hospitalization cases are tripled. flu hospitalizations are the highest and more than a decade and masking and lockdowns barely maybe to blame for some of it. all of it? >> because of covid and all of the mitigation strategies we've had over the last several years, many of those children did not get exposed to rsv. we have several years of children who have never seen rsv before and because of that, we

have these layers and more children who are requiring hospitalization then we see in any given season. >> arthel: fox news senior correspondents steve harrigan his home in atlanta, home of the cdc. speaking stomach speak out they are forced to track respiratory illnesses. but also, rsv which is hitting children under the age of 5. one of the challenges is to find enough hospital beds. especially in pediatric icu units. there shortages so severe that sometimes children are put in the e.r. for extended periods of time and some hospitals are using tents to handle the overflow patients. >> when there is an emergency room bed open, it is fall and when there is an inpatient bed open, someone is waiting to take that as well. >> pediatricians wrote a letter to president biden last week asking him to declare an

emergency situation to try and give hospitals more flexibility to deal with the crisis. as far as the rate of rsv goes, right now, it is at 2.9 per 100,000. that is more than double than what it was just one year ago. many physicians think it is the covid pandemic that is driving the increase in rsv. >> during the pandemic, you would a lot of people who were social distancing or weren't at school and now people are in a situation where they are now back at school in colusa quarters and things like that. some have grown up and have not been exposed to rsv. most children are by the age of 2, but if they have not, now that they are in close quarters, there is an stomach a reason why there's a rise of infection because people are gathering close together. >> numbers expected to rise in the weeks ahead as well. and children in the u.s., less than one-third of children age five through 11 are fully

vaccinated against covid. back to you. >> arthel: steve harrigan reporting live in atlanta. thank you. >> molly: for more on this now with dr. nesheiwat and the founder of bc boost.com. thank you for joining us on thanksgiving and on this topic that so many parents are concerned about. >> i cover this over the last couple of weeks because emergency rooms in hospitals and doctors offices are struggling to handle t. this confluence of things coming together and rsv is particularly concerning. what are you seeing out there and how concerned should parents be? >> this past week, i have seen a combination of my patients testing positive for strep, for influenza eight, influence and become a covid, and rsv. i'm seeing a little bit of everything. but rsv is having me send my

patients to hospital for hospitalization for monitoring more so than flue, more so than covid. if we have 75 and 85% of pediatric hospital beds filled with rsv patients, what's going to happen if you have a patient who fell on the playground and injure their risk? maybe they sustained a fracture or was in a car accident or has appendicitis? other children need to go to the emergency room and seek medical care and it will be a strain on the health care system. it will be a challenge, but the good news is for the majority of patients that test positive, whether it is strep and function, bacterial, viral infection, many of them do well. but the key is knowing if you are at high risk. who is high risk? the very young. the elderly. pregnant women. those who have a weak immune system or a medical condition. some of the symptoms we tend to see our low-grade fever, cough,

sometimes a runny nose, a headache, a little bit of lethargic can happen. this is why it's important to keep your child hydrated, monitor them. if you have questions, call your pediatrician. >> arthel: another big problem out there is this medical purgatory where people go to tht stuck there. it is called boarding and sometimes it can take a while. the american college of emergency physician was talking about how it can take a day or a week to move to a hospital bed if necessary. how much of a challenge is that creating across america with our hospitals? >> it is tough. it's a challenge. i remember working in the e.r. myself and i would have patients who would try to admit to the hospital but there were no floors available in the units that they needed to go to. you would have to sometimes transfer them to another hospital, especially if the hospital you are working at does not have a pediatric unit for the unit is filled. you are having to call local hospitals and sometimes you have

to go to another state to get the care that you need. we tend to see an increase in these infections in cold winter months and most people do okay. it's a matter of taking the preventative measures and keeping our hands wash and clean. staying warm, staying hydrated, getting a well-balanced diet and making sure you are getting enough vitamins and minerals to boost your immune system and a cleaning and disinfecting surfaces. that is very important as well. speak to the american college of emergency physicians has sent a letter to the white house. they've urged federal intervention. is there something that the biden administration should be doing right now? >> absolutely. because of what we called this phenomenon, it is an immunity gap. wwe had shutdowns, lockdowns, social distancing, masking. everyone, not just children, we were not exposed to the normal routine circulate in viruses and that's what we are seeing the outbreak. it's very important that our

president declares an emergency not for covid, but for rsv just to allocate resources for more funding, more beds, more doctors, more supplies to allow a doctor. me, i'm licensed in new york, but i cannot go to new jersey or connecticut to help out. if president biden declares an emergency, i am able to go and help and we will have more resources just to get us through these months when we see the increase in rsv and the flu and covid as well. >> molly: are we going back to where we were when there were huge concerns and hospital bits were taken up by covid as now we head into winter months? are we looking at when elective surgeries will be canceled and that domino effect? >> i don't think so. we know how to manage covid and we have the resources to treat it. we have the antivirals and we have the vaccines and the boosters. we also have medications on testing for influenza. when it comes to rsv, it is

supportive care. there is not an antibiotic to treat rsv. usually oxygen and hydration. i don't think we will ever get to where we were with covid with rsv, but we want to make sure that we do everything we can to be prepared in case that does happen. we've a lot of great doctors and nurses and medical personnel around the country working very hard to do what they can to take care of the children and the adults in the elderly as well. >> molly: we are so grateful for them and on this thanksgiving day as well because there is no break. dr. nesheiwat, thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us on this thanksgiving and happy thanksgiving to you and yours. >> happy thanksgiving to you as well. >> arthel: happy thanksgiving to jeanette's mom. as americans celebrate thanksgiving, we are reminded of how generous the giving spirit truly is. there's one story that caught our eyes of alabama when a group of friends treated their waitress to an extra-large tip.

off and paranoid. we go to mark meredith in chesapeake with more. speak good afternoon. police are saying they are still try to figure out what led up to tuesday shooting. there's a report that the gunmen had a hit list on him. police have not confirmed this. i spoke with an employee who was in a breakroom and they shooting occurred on tuesday and she said that she was scared for her life. she knew that this manager had a bad reputation and that she was someone -- she believed he was made. somebody that she tried to avoid as much as possible. as you been talking, please identify the gunman as a 31-year-old andre bank. he was the overnight team leader and has worked there since 2010. he shot and killed himself. today, president biden weighed in on the tragedy calling for additional gun-control measures. this is what he said while on vacation in massachusetts. >> president biden: based on

knowledge, not on parents saying or loved one saying we should arrest this person. it's ridiculous. >> arguments but at the fbi and local law enforcement trying to piece together a crime scene. it is strode dumb and frozen in time. we can spot people's belongings right in front of the score. people running out trying to save their own lives. people have identified the victims appeared they range from 16 to 70 years old. residents say they cannot understand why this happened. speak out can't believe somebody would have that much viciousness in their hearts. just to shoot everybody like that. i want all of the families to know that we will surround them with love and our heart goes out to them.

claypool joins us now. first of all, let's talk about the possible charges. will the first-degree murder and hate crime charges stick and what is the potential punishment for those charges? >> great to be with you and happy thanksgiving. even amid all of these trag tragedies. with respect to first-degree murder, they will stick. there's no question about it. the shooter and colorado will spend the rest of his life in jail but there's something here more symbolic. i hate crime. if somebody carries out an injury or causes injury to somebody else based on an actual or perceived bias, it is based on sexual orientation. the key word there is perceived. the shooter admits that i am anti-gay and i don't like gays i don't think we'll have that

here. i have sources that the shooter made homophobic remarks and you can see if he was on any online groups that are anti-gay but the fact that he targets a gay night club is inference that he had a bias against gay folks and he should be charged with hate crime. >> and they are saying that the shooter's nonbinary is would like to be referred to as they. is this a skirt the hate crime charges question work with they have to prove a history of this nonbinary identity? >> a great question. i think it is a ruse. it's a pretext to protect the sky from a hate crime charge. if this guy's nonbinary, there should be something out there that proves that. i think this is just to try and protect him from the hate crime charges. inc. about it.

you just saw a shooting at a walmart. i'm a survivor of the las vegas shooting. i was in a concert. if you are not biased, you will go anywhere and shoot people. he chose a gay nightclub. he has a daunting task ahead of him. >> arthel: if you are saying the first-degree murder charges will stick, why are they trying to get away from a hate crime charge? >> the hate crime charge is extremely important because we have seen an onslaught over the years. >> arthel: i understand. i beg your pardon. i understand why it is important, but what i don't understand is why his attorneys are trying to get away from that, it appears. >> they are trying to get away from that because of the penalty. really, it does not make any sense because he will go to jail for the rest of his life anyway.

maybe it is a symbolic gesture, but it will not make any difference. he will never see the day of light again. >> arthel: sadly, nothing will bring back the deceased and the burden is unimaginable. you told us that you survive the vegas mass shooting and you know firsthand the emotional trauma that is attached. how can the family of the survivors of the recent tragedies begin to move forward? >> thank you for asking that. i went to therapy over 50 times after the vega shooting. i encourage anybody impacted by the shootings to get therapy. talk about what you experience. the fear, the trauma, possibly the guilt for not -- for surviving and not being killed. number one, get therapy. number two, do not try to compare yourself to the way you were before the shooting. i feel like my heart has been

seared forever. i am managing my trauma, but for example, i still have physical symptoms five years later when i nod off to sleep. my body convulses sometimes because i am still in fight or flight even five years later. what i would recommend is be kind to yourself. value life and take risks that you might not have taken prior to the shooting. again, do not try to be exactly who you were before the shooting because that is going to be impossible. >> arthel: very important advice. wise words. i'm sorry you went through that and i'm glad you are getting on the other side of it. appreciate your time and sharing your story. brian claypool and your expertise. thank you and happy thanksgiving. >> thank you so much. you two. >> molly: americans say that they are already worried about the economy. now, a looming rail strike threatens right before the

compromised. >> there's a real strike. animals eat every day. you need the constant supply. they are racing to get that up. trucks fill it and but with the real strike, they can't fill it. >> molly: very specific. a window into what we will talk about. as you just heard, the looming rail strike will have far-reaching effects impacting farmers, the food you eat, the overall supply chain. but it's far from the only thing that could damage the economy right now. the fed suggest that they may start to slow down the rate hikes even though inflation is showing no signs of slowing. joining us now, dan belcher road. thank you for joining us good happy thanksgiving. we appreciate your insights on the holiday.

the president said he has not been directly involved at this point in time. your thoughts on the potential? averted once, but it looks like it is looming again. >> this is a very big deal. look. they thought they had a done deal with the unions back in september and within that deal, that was going to be the highest rays in 50 years and it got turned down. what does that mean? it means it will cost even more for this rail st strike to be averted. either way, we are looking at prices going up. why? because of people on the rails who will end up being paid more and that will get passed thr through. if the strike happens and we cannot get products from point a to point b, we are going to have a huge breakdown in the supply chain and what does that mean when demand is so high?

more inflation. >> molly: we are on the cusp of winter. there is a diesel problem to be handled and this is not going to help with that. people will be heating their homes and worrying about those costs in the coming days. what is the overall fallout potential of this? how much should the everyday american affect their life to be affected which could as soon as possible fifth? >> everyone will be impacted if there is a rail strike. of course, some of that is going to translate into energy cost. no question about it. people think that you go to the pump and it is expensive to philip. true, but it is a big problem when you have diesel fuel prices going up. why? because products using trucks going from point a to point b, everything becomes more expensive. all of us and up paying more. i think we all have to hope that

we do not end up in a situation where we have this real strike because that is going to be paying for everyone across the country. speak to president got involved most recently the first time thw it's looming again. he said over in nantucket that he has not directly engaged at this point in time. should he be directly engaged? >> i don't see why he has to be directly engaged in this. i think that both sides have representatives. what is the president going to say? please don't strike, we will give you more money. is he going to threaten him? i think that joe biden may just as well sit on the sideline here and let others take care of the matter. i'm sure he will have plenty to say and i'm sure if it is averted he is going to take credit, but i still say i would rather see him on the sideline. >> molly: onto the other topic. we are not seeing any break and inflation as far as we can tell.

federal reserve officials anticipating this downshift in the pace of rate increases. they've been taking up and we've been watching that. what could this potentially signal? >> it could signal that they are going to only raise interest rates by 50 basis points as opposed to 75 basis points which is the track that they had been on. the number one reason that they are raising interest rates is to get inflation under control and bring it down. right now, we are at 7.7%. that number is not something we should celebrate. it is just a list terrible number than we previously had. i think we are a long way off of getting inflation under control and if the fed only ends up going 50 basis points, i don't know how much good that is going to do. >> molly: the big thing about this is the housing market. things are frozen right now. what does this potentially mean

for people with mortgage rates? people that are dreaming of finally getting into their first home or moving in the can't? where is the end of it and how do we move onto the next chapter in that story? >> interest rates are more than double they were a year ago. we would look at that and say that's not good. when you look at its impact, it should start to take housing prices down because remember, anyone who is looking to buy a home, it comes down to what is your monthly mortgage payment going to be? the mortgage interest rate and the price of the house, they move up and down in the opposite direction. what we're seeing now and what we are going to see is prices coming down to try and level that off. a lot of people right now are putting away the american dream and saying you know what? i think we are going to have to rent for a while until the

housing prices come down and a mortgage interest rates start to come down. >> molly: a lot of people have the idea that i can't afford it into a new house but i will build on this house. not if there is a major supply chain issue that will strike in december. your thoughts on the americans that are trying to live the american dream right now and what we are facing in the coming weeks heading into the christmas season? >> it is all about budget. people have to live within their means. one disturbing fact out there is a credit debt is growing and growing for so many people. with interest rates growing up, it is becoming really expensive to be in debt on your credit cards. that to me is the big warning to everybody. you are out there shopping, don't just take out the credit card. actually have cash on you and only spend what you have because people get involved in emotional

spending during the holidays. resist it. i know it's hard. the financial price that you could pay for that could be devastating. >> molly: thank you so much for talking to us on this holiday and about the upcoming holidays. i feel like we will need to talk to again in january when this all wraps up and we see where we end up in a matter of weeks. really appreciate it. and q for your insights. >> thank you. >> arthel: putin's war on ukraine continues and we keep an eye on the crisis where insurgents are using flashlights to operate. people are gathering at the only places in town that have electricity as the brutal cold winter settles in. russian strikes have knocked out the power grid. we are live there coming up n next. ♪ ♪

from the world with what's good and what's evil in it and get our lives centered in god. only in god will our souls be at rest, the bible says. it is only in god that we find peace. there's a wonderful device that you can find on gothic cathedrals called the wheel of fortune. it's a great circle at the top of which is a king and the bottom of which is a popper and there is a king losing his crown and a king gaining his crown. the point is, that's life. the wheel of fortune turns. there's ups and downs, goods and pads. don't live your life on the rim of the wheel. rather, live your life in the center of the wheel. that is where you find, where you find god. who was the same yesterday, the same, and forever. who links us to the eternity of god. when you live in the central place, you find a piece that the world can't give and then you look at the good and bad with detachment.

i think you find that theme all throughout the christian and the whole biblical tradition. >> arthel: to that end, when you live in that center and the pieces in the center, that piece is inside. if you project that onto other people, that is where you find compassion and perhaps that is something that we can all keep top of mind as we gather as families this holiday season. >> that is precisely right. when you find the inner peace, he start radiating peace around you. we are meant to be light and we are meant to influence the world but it happens through our own inner conversion. i was a couple of things about the central place, the place of peace. one of the marxist gratitude. when you realize that everything i have is a gift. what do you have that you have

not received a question mark mine and will and breath and body and life. my very existence is a gift. therefore the right attitude is not resentment or entitlement, it is gratitude. that comes from living out of the central place. what you said is exactly right. what else flows from it is love. love is not a feeling primarily. love is willing the good of the other. it can be the simplest act. doing something good for somebody else, but it comes from the inner place of peace because you are aligned it to the god who is love and you become conformed to love. that is what it looks like. that is what a peaceful person looks like. a person of gratitude and a person of love. >> arthel: i am peaceful then because it that is how i live. i say that not to be on a high horse, but sometimes we have to

put a face on it and if i am a face to be placed on it, i'm happy for that. >> people asked me all the time if they are going through depression or a difficult period not now, what do i do? i always say perform the simplest act of love. in the simplest way, find some around you in need. it might be a phone call, it might be a note or letter. it might be a smile. perform a simple act of love and you will align yourself thereby to the very source of existence. to the god who is love. that is the path to peace. >> arthel: i want to ask you this because it's easy for us to have the conversation and i'm sure it's an easy conversation for people listening to us right now, but there are some people bishop, as you well know, that cannot see the light. i don't want to say darkness,

but sometimes darkness. they are just bogged down with problems. they cannot see through. what you tell those people? >> we need to engage whatever life is giving us. that might mean we need to stand to thwart evil and stand up against injustice. we need to deal with problems and so on. sometimes life throws problems that are intractable. i can't do very much about. st. john on the cross said you look around and don't find love, but love there. in other words, you can always will the good of the other. you can always get your life on that beam. even in the midst of the worst crises in the worst suffering. i think that in some ways is the distillation of the great ethical teaching of the bible. god is love, therefore, become attuned to god and become yourself a person of love. >> arthel: sounds good to me.
