cases in 14 states. most in california and traced back to disneyland. more cases are expected. >> this morning, presidential candidates are joining the debate about the safety of vaccines and parents choices. we have nancy cordes on capitol hill with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to the viewers in the west who are in the middle of all of this. kentucky senator rand paul got a lot of attention for the remarks. he is a medical doctor and says he is a fan of vaccines but says they should be voluntary and in some cases, can be harmful to children. that puts him at odds. senator paul made the comment on cnbc. >> i heard of many tragic cases of walking, talking normal children who wound up with profound mental disorders after vaccines.

comments saying there is no question kids should be vaccinated. >> republicans tend to believe a little bit more in the rights of parents to make decisions over their children they tend to be more concerned about washington mandates than democrats. in the end, it is overwhelming among both parties that vaccinations are important if not essential to keeping their children safe and healthy. >> reporter: and the possible democratic contender, hillary clinton weighed in last night as well in a tweet. she said the science is clear. the earth is round, the sky is blue and vaccines work. #grandmothersknowbest. charlie. >> thank you. 14 children are quarantined in santa monica, california. their school day care shutdown. the vaccination cannot be given until the babies are 1 years old.

isis. just north of baghdad, the general took us to see villages his men clawed back from isis last week. this was the front line and this is isis terrorist. the general told us 80 of his men died here in a four-day battle. in this village, they launched the attack through the amuse many park long deserted by locals. after isis was defeated the fighters fled over the hills. before they left they blew up the bridge and left the village littered with roadside bombs. the iraqi national army did not take on isis alone. it relied on hundreds of volunteers with a shi'ite muslim militia known as the fighter brigades. we want peace for our children and families said their commander. he ran a grocery store until he

signed up six months ago. the brigade has the best track record defeating isis in central iraq. they have a murky past. during iraq's bloody civil war, the death squads were implicated in the torture and murder of thousands of sunni muslims. last week the shi'ite militia men were accused of killing 70 unarmed sunni men. iraq's shi'ite government have given the brigade unprecedented power. the general says he and his men are under the command of the leader of the fighter brigade. he was given the job by the prime minister the general said, everybody knows it. the brigades have a close relationship with iran and iran's special forces are fighting in iraq against isis. so that means that in iraq the u.s. is on the same side as both

an unchecked militia and iran which shows you how complicated the fight against isis has become. norah. >> holly, incredible piece. great reporting. to point out how complicated everything is. thank you. gas prices are creeping up this morning. aaa says the average price jumped to $2.07 overnight. the eighth straight day of increases. after a record fall of 123 days. are the days of $2 gas over in anthony mason is with us. good morning. >> good morning. >> gas prices going up? >> it is innevitableinevitable. pit has felt nice at the pump but oil is trying to find a bottom here. it got as low as $43 a barrel. high how up? it is not clear. there has been a paradigm shift here. we will have cheaper gas, not as

cheap as last couple weeks, but within the last year. the energy department estimate is $2.33 a gallon. we're ahead. >> does it represent any change of decision by oil producers? >> i don't think so yet, charlie. one thing is clear the lower prices mean the energy is coming back. u.s. production will go up even with that. you are seeing cut backs in investment and cut backs in production and you will see layoffs. >> what is on the increase? >> what you are seeing is shiftovers in refineryies. they do maintenance. there is a big strike going on. the refineries are saying that is not effecting the production yet. what you are seeing is the momentum down. it had to stop at a certain point. what the market is trying to do is figure out the new price of

a parade today when you have this much snow on the ground you have piles of snow all over the place. the world champions would simply have to wait a day. that's what they did. they came home last night to gleeful fans who waited in about 2 1/2 feet of snow to greet them. now, that snow about 2 feet of it was left over from last week's storm. we know the city it cost them about $10 million to clean that up. we still don't know how much this storm is going to cost them. but the snowplows were out, the sand trucks were out, some 600 in all. they have to tow and truck load about 6,000 truckloads out in order to get all of this snow out of the city of boston. over the last three -- i guess the last seven days we've seen 34 inches of snow. that is a week-long record. the snowiest week on record we should note. schools are closed down. we should say the subways are

veronica and i are trying this new fad called jogging. i believe it's jogging or jogging. it might be a soft "j." i'm not sure. apparently you just run for a period of time. it's supposed to be wild. >> that's awesome. >> steve carell. >> whether you call it jogging or jogging like will ferrell in "anchorman" running faster and farther isn't necessarily better. in our morning round there's a new study in the american journal of cardiology finding light joggers may outlive more intense runners. our dr. tara narula is a cardiologist. good morning. >> good morning. >> the benefits for moderate joggers is substantial. >> this study really tried to tell us if there's a tipping point after which exercise doesn't become as beneficial in terms of mortality. what researchers did compared joggers with sedentary, nonjoggers, then they further divided the joggers into light, moderate or strenstrenuous joggers.

the light joggers had a reduced mortality about 78%, moderate 34% and strenuous joggers had the same mortality as a sedentary nonjogger. >> define light, moderate and heavy. >> the best prescription as much as researchers found in terms much light was a slower average pace, 5 miles per hour exercising two to three times per week or 1 to 2 1/2 hours per week. that seemed to have the best overall profile in terms of mortality benefit. >> i was thinking this was #best study ever. the harder you work it may not be as beneficial for you. the reality is because it seems counterintuitive. it seems the better you work out that would be better. >> it definitely seems counterintuitive. exercise does wonders in terms of blood pressure cholesterol and weight. however, when you perform exercise to these extreme levels, the theory is you're potentially causing structural or uhl to structural damage to the heart, changing the loading

conditions on the heart. the heart sees higher volumes, more pressure so the function may be reduced. you're changing the impact on the arteries of the heart that may form earlier calcification or stiffening. or potentially causes fibrosis to the tissue in the heart. >> you're in no way saying you shouldn't exercise. i'm making light of it but it is very important. you're not saying that. >> no. >> the study shows that light exercise -- >> this is not meant to scare people who are hard-core exercisers. the big message, if anything this study shows if you exercise less than an hour or week or once a week you can have a big impact on mortality. more may not necessarily be better but the question is is it harmful? we don't know yet. >> in your practice do you see marathoners have heart problems? >> marathoners can have it. there's a low rate of sudden death. if you check their blood they many times have cardiac enzymes.

>> that's a lot. a marathon is a lot. >> it is. >> whatever you're doing, it's working. because this is your birthday. happy birthday. >> thank you. >> happy birthday. >> thank you. >> enjoy. dr. tara narula. thanks. ahead, a college's e-mail about fitness backfires. >> a constant thought and reminder in my head that i do not fit on campus. i think it did trigger a lot of feelings for me personally, my body is being eradicated. >> why students say they were singled out for discrimination based on their bodies. that's next on "cbs this morning." cbs morning rounds sponsored by campbell's. get campbell's many recipes and more at khem bellskitchen.com. ng awesome. to make it awesome make it "mini." like campbell's® mini chicken pot pies. awesome, mom. get recipes at campbellskitchen.com sir, we're going to need you on the runway later. don't let a severe cold hold you back. get theraflu...

. apologizes this morning after the school contacted students identified as overweight based on their body mass index. this sparked controversy on the historic campus. >> good morning, gayle. the messages were sent with the intention of raising awareness of health risk associated with being overweight. but the idea backfired and the liberal arts college is now being accused of fat shaming. the college is known for its liberal traditions and all

female population. when english major received a message saying she was invited to a weight loss success program for students with elevated bmi's she demanded to know why. >> i was pretty horrified. i've dealt with an eating disorder for many years and i didn't know how i could receive something like this from the same health center that treated me. >> she soon discovered that her bmi had been miscalculated and was issued an apology. >> had your bmi been correct, would you have welcomed the contact then? >> definitely not. i would have felt as if my school were against me. >> she posted on facebook an open letter to her school you're telling students it's more important to lose weight than to

be healthy. and you're discriminateing against students who are overweight. she. >> she says they were sent out of concern about student health. >> some soft students who received the notices say they felt a sense of fat shaming or that they were being targeted based on their bmi. how do you feel about that? >> the e-mail was all about health and well-being. so the part that i really want to come away from this emphasizing is that our culture has made it impossible to talk about weight without employimplying that we're talking about somebody's worth. >> that's exactly what natalie felt when she received the message. >> being a fat woman is the idea of a constant thought and reminder in my head that i do not fit on campus. it triggered a lot of feelings for me of oh my body is being

eradicated. they're looking at my body as a problem that needs to be changing. >> body policing and fat shaming soon became a topic of conversation, one she plans to continue. >> sending out a message about this is not about health. it's about weight. and health and weight are not the same thing. >> the school takes a closer look at how to address matters of student health. >> we need to figure out how we can do it face to face and wait until the student initiates the conversation without us going proactively. >> the director of the school's health center has issued an apology to those who received an in initial message. >> what was in the message?

is actually get us to the moon and get there ten times or a hundred times cheaper. and google put up $30 million in prize money for the first team to build a robotic lander land on the moon send back photos youtube videos and then rove a half a kilometer and do it again. and it's really about having humanity be able to explore space cheaper faster where it's not just a couple governments. it's a lot of people. >> you weren't around and talked to some of the wealthiest men in the country and that's all well and good but you say anybody can change the world. and that's really what you want people to know when you've written the book. >> my only inspiration was a thousand years ago only kings or queens could do something on a national or regional level. today it's all of us. any of us who are truly passionate driven by a

transformative purpose. this book is sort of a how-to manual. you don't need to be a technologist. we're in a world where there's lots of technologists. you need the passion and drive. and maybe you're a great writer or organizer. then there's moon shot thinking. then there's tools crowd funding. these are the things that allow us all to make an impact for things we really care about. i wanted entrepreneurs to know this is your manual on how to do that. >> i love your peter's rules. i won't read them all. one of my favorites, number 11. no simply means begin one level higher. you're just a person that doesn't take no and don't be afraid to fail. >> yeah. most people are empowered to tell you no. sometimes you have to climb up the chain, you know -- >> but then that ticks the person off that told you no. >> it does but if you're driven by your passion and purpose, that's okay. your mission is to help make things happen. so where are we trying crazy ideas? >> i have a 7-year-old who won't
