7:03 am
>> this morning's "eye opener" is presented by progressive. making it easy to bundle insurance. >> john krasinski and stephen colbert, i like it. >> and his scary movie is out july 1. >> i don't like scary. but i liked this one. it does not disappoint. we welcome you back to "cbs this morning." we begin in the middle east, where a fragile truce between hamas and israel is in place after more than a week of deadly fighting. let's get right to jerusalem. things are still dangerous. is the cease-fire holding? >> vlad, good morning. this cease-fire is holding, very fragile. but we have seen in east jerusalem major tension behind met al aqsa mosque and
7:04 am
things have been very disconcerted, but no rockets. on the bombed-out streets of gaza, a mixture of joy and relief after 11 days of horrifying fighting ended in a truce between hamas and israel.s were killed and vast devastation, it's a hollow one. in an address to the nation about the cease-fire, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said, "we operated together to protect our people." 12 israelis were killed in the fighting. tal schneider is an israeli political analyst. does the cease-fire, if it holds, is there a winner? >> i think all sides are losing. i don't see anyone here who is winning the conflicts. it is repeating conflict after conflict and all sides are losing. >> reporter: overnight in east jerusalem where this all began, fireworks lit up the night sky. but this morning a sense the long high festering issues still
7:05 am
those claims completely false. now the world has hailed this truce, but we have to be very cautious here. back in 2014 in the last gaza war, a conflict i covered extensively, there were nine truces, all of them fell apart. the concern now is that this latest truce could also fall apart. anthony? >> imtiaz tyab in east jerusalem. thank you. president biden praised the agreement in his most extensive remarks about the conflict since it began. >> i believe the palestinians and israelis equally deserve to live safely and securely and to enjoy equal measures of freedom, prosperity, and democracy. my administration will continue our quiet, relentless dips in
7:06 am
toward that end -- diplomacy toward that end. >> weijia jiang from the white house. how did the president his first foreign policy crisis? >> reporter: good morning, anthony. president biden said very little in public as the conflict was unfolding. focusing instead on what the white house called quiet, relentless diplomacy in private. many democrats were calling on the president to publicly support a cease-fire even earlier than he did. but a senior administration official told cbs news that mr. biden's experience during previous conflicts in the middle east led him to deliberately take there behind-the-scenes approach and he believes it's more effective to work that way instead of getting drawn into public political arguments. the normal statement from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu's office called the cease-fire an egyptian initiative with no credit to the united states. still, the administration had more than 80 talks with officials in the region,
7:07 am
including six conversations between mr. biden and netanyahu. the president said he sees a genuine opportunity to make progress toward peace in the middle east and said he would work with israel and the palestinian authority, though not hamas which the u.s. considers a terrorist organization. he also said he would help israel replenish supplies for its iron dome despite opposition from some democrats over selling weapons to israel. in fact, just yesterday senator bernie sanders offered a new resolution to block the administration's planned $735 million arms deal to israel. he says that that could offer even more conflict. but the president has made clear that strengthening relationships with allies like israel is a cornerstone of his foreign policy strategy, and in the next few days his secretary of state will visit the middle east. gayle? >> thank you very much. we've got encouraging news this morning. the reported number of new covid
7:08 am
cases in this country fell below 30,000 for the fifth straight day yesterday. that hasn't happened since last june. that's good. one big reason for that -- more than 156 million american adults have now received at leat one coronavirus vaccine. president biden's chief medical adviser, you know him, dr. anthony fauci joins us. he's also the top expert on infectious diseases. good morning to you, dr. fauci. it's good to see you as always. >> thank you, good to see you. >> here's the thing -- you're going to be proud of me. i went outside -- i'm vaccinated -- walked around without a mask and didn't feel as guilty as i normally do. isn't that good? >> you're getting there, gayle. you're getting there. >> baby steps. making progress. a friend of mine said, you just need to relax. you and all the other people who are vaccinated, you are in a great position, you need start living your lives. what is the confusion about the mask? why are you worried about it? the bottom line is you don't
7:09 am
have to wear a mask inside. you don't have to wear a mask outside if you're vaccinated. and the people that aren't vaccinated should still be wearing their masks. is it as simple as that? it doesn't seem so. >> it really is, gayle. i mean, i think the confusion that people have is that when the cdc made the announcement that people who will are vaccinated can really feel safe because of the extraordinary degree of effectiveness of the vaccines, whether you're outdoors or indoors, somehow that got interpreted as saying, well, masks beget masks. we don't need to wear masks, which is not the case. the recommendations for people who are not vaccinated have not changed. they really remain the same, particularly the issue of wearing masks when indoors. >> i think people get confused because you go to a store and they're saying wear your mask. and people are walking around saying, i'm -- i'm vaccinated, so i don't need to wear a mask. shouldn't we follow if you're going to a story and their rule is wear a mask, leave your mask on, right?
7:10 am
>> absolutely. absolutely. and the reason why that's the case is since we don't have any official way to validate or verify that you're vaccinated, if you're the owner of an establishment, you don't have any idea who's vaccinated, who's not. there may be infected people in the establishment that might infect other people who are not vaccinated. so in order to just cover the waterfront, they say if you're going to come into ply establishment, wear a -- my establishment, wear a mask. under those circumstances even though you're vaccinated, you should abide by what the person says in an establishment. >> we cleared that up. that's not so confusing. i'm worried about the honors system. i may trust me and the the people table, but people out there, i'm not so sure about them. i'm very, very worried about that. let's talk about the booster shots for a second. we keep hearing that we're going to need a booster in the fall, about six months, that it only covers you for six months. is that still tracking that way? >> you know, not necessarily,
7:11 am
gayle. again, unfortunately there's some misunderstanding about that. we are planning for the eventuality that we might need to boost people. we don't know whether we will have to do it and when we will have to do it. there's estimates, well, it may be a year, it may be longer. the fact is we don't know. but it would be foolish not to plan for the possibility that we might have to boost people. but there's no set rule now that says in six months or in a year we're going to get -- going to require a boost. what we do is we follow the durability of the response. we know we could measure it by laboratory tests, but you can also see if there are breakthrough infections. so rather than people assuming that six months from now everyone will need a boost, which is not the case at all, we just keep following the durability of the response. and if the time comes when we'll need to boost people, we'll at least have enough data because
7:12 am
we're doing the studies now to know what we expect to see when we do boost people. >> that's why this is such a moving target because you're still following the data, trying to gather all the information. it's not that you guys don't know what you're doing. you're just trying to follow the science and trying to figure this out as we go along. okay. basketball playoffs, opening up around the country. what's your guidance for people going to basketball playoffs? vaccinated or non-vaccinated because there are a lot going on this weekend. >> you know, it's going to depend on what the regulations are of the people who are running the establishment where the game is being held. if they say you have to have a mask when you go in, then you should be wearing a mask. if they say you don't need wear a mask and you are vaccinated, you really't no wea a >> okay. pe as telluth, , as you thank r. a fauci.
7:13 am
glitch? >> good morning, the airline systems that they use went down this morning. and there were delays all across the country like at l.a., new york and jfk. people could not check in for their flight and this came as american and jetblue were starting mor pleading with aier speang informa a
7:14 am
they shuck ould be doing. saber acknowledged the oudage saying we will take all necessary measures to prevent recurrence. think of the reservation as the foundation of the agent. if they can't check in they can't do boarding passes, bags or close it out for departure. it basically puts the airline on pause until the system starts working again. sabre is a decades-old computer system but the cost to replace it would be substantial, and that could cause disruptions in and of itself. sabre is working again but expect residual delays for the next few hours this morning as airlines are now playing catch-up. >> chris, thank you. this t at aten santa barbara before the staff very narrowly escaped the flames that spread last night andrers to put out the flames and put out any serious damage. the loma fire threatens homes
7:15 am
and other businesses in the area northwest of los angeles. this is the second wildfire in that region this week. the experts say that climate change is making california's fire season start earlier and end later every year. prince william and prince harry are condemning the bbc after an investigation found a reporter who interviewed princess diana back in 1995 repeatedly lied to gain access. in a statement, prince william said the interview hurt his parents' marriage. roxana saberi has more reaction to that report from the interview that shook the entire royal family. they see me as a threat of some kind. and i'm here to do good. >> reporter: over a quarter of a century ago, nearly 23 million people watched princess diana open up about her struggles in the royal family. now prince william is blasting the bbc for how the interview was secured, and the pain it continues to cause. >> the interview was a major
7:16 am
contribution to making my parents' relationship worse and has since hurt countless other. >> reporter: prince harry went further say, "the ripple effect of a culture of exploitation and unethical practices ultimately took his mother's life." the brothers were responding to the fiendings of an independent investigation that then bbc's martin bashir deceived her brother, earl spencer, and playsed on diana's fears and paranoia to land the interview. it acused statements including forging bank statements suggesting that people were being paid to spy on princess diana. prince william was 15 and harry 12 when their mother died fleeing from the paparazzi, two years after the sensational interview. >> it brings indescribable sandness that the bbc's failures contributed significantly to her fear, paranoia, and isolation that i remember from those final years with her. >> reporter: bashir who resigned
7:17 am
from the bbc last friday has apologized for forging bank statement but added they had no bearing on diana's decision to speak with him. the broadcaster has also apologized for what it calls unacceptable failures. for "cbs this morning," roxana saberi, london. >> certainly not a good moment for the media when you hear that story. we'll never know if princess diana would have given that interview had she not had that information. martin bashir produced a letter saying she didn't regret the interview, but she downtown k knknow -- she didn't know the information. you can see why they're upset. >> the forging of bank statements is particularly distressing. >> not okay. not how most people in the media operate. authorities seized dozens of big cats at a park remembered by -- you remember this guy -- not him, but joe exotic. i don't know him. from "tiger king." that's just a tige

welcome back to "cbs this morning." tony dokoupil reveals new details about an epic treasure hunt in tomorrow's "48 hours." millionaire forest fenn announced in 2010 that he hid about $1 million worth of gold in the rocky mountains. tens of thousands of people seed ove the next decade. now tony has covered this treasure hunt from the beginning and was instrumental in bringing it to a national audience. here's part of his "48 hours" report. >> i think forest wanted to become a legend, and i actually think he succeeded. he was described as a modern day indiana jones. >> reporter: sacha dent remembers being captivated the first time she heard of forest
7:31 am
fenn, a santa fe millionaire and former art gallery owner. >> forest came up with the idea to hide a bronze chest filled with gold somewhere in the rocky mountains. >> reporter: estimated worth -- $1 million. >> i thought it was the coolest hing i'd heard. >> reporter: sacha was all in. >> i really think the greatest thing that drove me was wanting to match wits with the man himself. >> reporter: and that meant deciphering a cryptic poem. he wrote a 24-line poem guiding people to the location of the treasure. >> yeah. that's exactly it. he created effectively a treasure map in the form of that poem. >> reporter: daniel barbarisi tried searching for the treasure. he didn't find it. but he had better luck writing about the fenn phenomena for his book, "chasing the thrill: obsession, death, and glory in america's most extraordinary treasure hunt." >> he then leased his treasure hunt to the world and encouraged
7:32 am
anyone and everyone to go out and to search for his hidden treasure. >> reporter: when the poem was first published in 2010 nothing much happened. but then a certain reporter writing for " nenewsweek" wrote long piece about the treasure hunt. >> i think the name of that reporter was the same as my name. >> whatever it was, a very hard name to pronounce. i'm pretty sure it was tony. >> reporter: soon tens of thousands were out there searching. >> it really started to raise the profile of it in a significant way. >> i made it hard deliberately. if it was easy, anyone could do it. >> reporter: but fenn's game was not without risk. five people died, including eric ashby, the only son of paul ashby from tennessee. >> forest fenn was a bad person. he could have stopped this madness before it became what it became. it wasn't worth it. >> reporter: how does forest fenn respond to that? >> he didn't like the idea that anyone would tell him to bring his hunt to an end because of a
7:33 am
few deaths. he said that if somebody was murdered because of the hunt, that would probably be too much. >> tony joins us from his neighborhood where he's on baby leave, as you know, after welcoming his new daughter eloise. we want to talk about her. but first we'll ask you about this story. hi, dad. good to see you. really good to see you. >> hey. good morning, guys. it's lovely to see you. i do not have a beard because i've been out hunting fenn's treasure. it's because i'm on daddy leave. i believe firmly that every child should have a picture of a young-looking dad with a beard. that's essential to growing up. let me give a few words about the fenn mystery. it is the greatest adventure and mystery story that i have ever worked on. and the big question that always comes up is why didn't he call off the hunt when people started dying. and the answer is that fenn would say, look, i wanted people to get outdoors, they were. and everything has some risk

involved. people drown in swimming pools. we don't call off swimming permanently. we teach people how to swim. so he had a kind of a -- the benefit outweighs the risk perspective on all of this. >> now can we talk about eloise? >>please. please. i'm over the moon. >> i love the name. it's old-fashioned, but it's also very sweet and really lovely. how did you and katy come up wit the name eloise? and did you bring a picture or two this morning? >> well, it took about three days for us to come up with a name. >> three days. >> she is waking up by the day, by the second. she's -- she is opening her eyes, she's turning when she hears or voices. she'll grab our fingers. she clasps our hands. i am savoring this, gayle, in such a way. i've been here before -- >> yeah. >> it's my fourth child. life moves fast. i can't believe i'm at this point. it's the last time, and i'm just soaking up every moment of it. i love it.

we end our "spring into summer" series with answers to your top questions about making summer plans. now that we're beginning to return to normal. many of you asked us about face
8:21 am
masks, covid variants, and the risks for vaccinated adults and children. cbs news medical contributor dr. david agus joins us with the answers. david, good morning. let me get to the first question here right away from a parent on twitteo -- if my kid is fully vaccinated, can they safely go to an overnight camp where there would be kids who are not vaccinated? >> good question. >> yes. the answer is yes, yes, yes. if the child is vaccinated -- remember, children are responding better than adults to the vaccines. they are protected even if they're exposed to somebody who is unvaccinated. so go to camp, enjoy. be a kid. >> all right. one of our staff member's 5-year-old daughter, margo, has this question. go, margo -- >> why is covid here and why do we have to wear masks? >> aw. everybody's asking that question. >> a big question for margo. >> margo, so, i feel bad that
8:22 am
people 12 and older may not have to wear masks when they go out, and when they're getting together. unfortunately, you do because we're not yet vaccinating children under 12. we're here because this virus is different than every other virus we've seen in that when you feel good, you can spread the virus. so people unknowingly asymptomatically have spread the virus. that's why it's taking so long. >> we've got a question from jessica. a lot of people want to know this -- should vaccinated people still get tested before and after traveling? >> that's a good one. so before traveling depends on the country you're going to. many are requiring a negative covid test before you get on that plane. in the united states, we require at least three days or a minimum of three days before you get back having a negativeovid test before you fly back. if you're vaccinated you do not have to quarantine when you get back, but we're asking that people get tested three days after they get back to the united states. >> what if you're traveling in the states?
8:23 am
what do you think about that? >> then no. >> no? okay. >> wear a mask on a plane, enjoy it, and you do not have to quarantine or be tested unless certain states have requirements. hawaii does have a requirement that they're asking for tests. and there will be a covid vaccine exemption. i don't think it started yet. >> dr. agus, frank wants to know can those who are fully vaccinated but test positive for covid-19 spread the virus to those who are unvaccinated and potentially make them sick? >> frank, that's the question. this is based on all the data we have on the vaccine. the real-world evidence, the answer is no. to sprea sebody elsechaying youl symptomatic. >> wow. that's great news. all right. david, lisa asks -- are vaccinated people still supposed to stay away from places where it's unknown who is vaccinated and who is not?
8:24 am
>> if you have a normal immune system and you've been vaccinated, the two weeks after that second shot or after the j&j shot, go. go to the supermarket, go to events. it's okay. you are protected, and you are protected from bringing it home. even if you have young children, you're not going to spread it to them. that's why the cdc changed its recommendation. it's based on data. >> here's heather. she wants to know if a fully vaccinated person is exposed to a variant, will they still experience symptoms and can a fully vaccinated person get covid? >> so right now the three vaccines that are approved by the fda within the u.s. all protect against all of the known variants from seriousillns. ths allha when exposed to a variant will be what we call the breakthrough cases. normally they're just mildly symptomatic. so in general, we are protected from those variants. that's what's so exciting. 14.5 months we've been cooped indoors. this summer, enjoy. >> yeah. that's music to my ears.

i can put a smile on, but inside, feel completely broken. >> that is from the me you can't see. a new series on appletv plus. it premieres today. the multi-part documentary was co-created by oprah and prince harry. it's told by real people, some famous, some not, but they all struggle with their emotional well-being. oprah and harry not only created it, but they both appear in it to tell their individual stories. but they began talking about this project more than a year and a half ago. >> to make that decision to receive help is not a sign of weakness. in today's world, more than ever, it is a sign of strength. >> from the first moment i had a conversation with prince harry about what were his two most important issues facing the world and he said, climate
8:42 am
change and mental health. and i started to tell him about the series i was doing with appletv plus. he said, oh, if you ever need any help with that series, let me know. and i went -- >> what did you think when he volunteered? >> well, my first initial thought was, oh, yeah, like, let's have lunch some time. >> but it's fascinating to me that you two are very different. >> we even say that in the series. at one point, i'm talking about growing up with no running water and an outhouse. and he was like, well, i am the exact opposite of that. which goes to show that it doesn't matter whether you were born in a castle or whether you're, you know, born in an outhouse or born to people who didn't really want you. we all have this spectrum of our mental well-being in common. >> he is candid in this series. do you think that him being as candid as he is is going to help him with the royal family? >> i don't know if it helps with the royal family, but this is
8:43 am
what i do know. is that being able to express your own personal truth in a way that benefits you and also helps other people to see the truth in themselves, which is the reason why harry agreed to have the sit-down and have the conversation, the first that went around the world. and in this series, you will see that we are in conversations. >> yes. >> because he knows the power of story. he knows that by sharing the story of his own grief with his mother, that many other people who haven't processed their grief will say, oh, you know what, that's what's going on with me, too. >> and i quickly established that if this relationship was going to work, that i was going to have to deal with my past, because there was anger there. >> what was fascinating to me is that both you and harry talk
8:44 am
about your own traumas. but for the first time, i saw a different kind of emotion. and i'm wondering where that came from for u. >> one of the things that has happened to me in this process of talking about other people's stories, i've thought a lot about my own. and i realize that every single thing that has happened, even when it was at its hardest, was happening to bring you to the you that you are right now. >> if you just have one person that says, i see you, i truly see you, i get you. for me, it was my teachers. mrs. duncan. >> oftentimes, i learned this on my own show, why do people break down and cry, because nobody has ever asked them a question in that way before. >> and every baby picture, every little girl picture i see of you, you look so sad. and you've never had therapy. >> well, gayle, don't make me start crying. you were my therapist. every night, after every show,
8:45 am
you and i would chat. we thought it was just talking, but the scientific term is dosing. so every night, dosing. dosing, dosing, dosing. the beauty of this, everybody doesn't have a gayle in their life, but there is somebody who is willing to see you and hear your story and to validate you. >> what i like is you have a wide variety of people and you have a wide variety of ages and ethnicities. >> yes, you know, one of the most powerful stories is that syrian refugee trial, fausi. and when his counselor says to him, there are two sides warring, there's the dark side and the light and we've got to bring you to the light, otherwise, 20 years from now, the little boy that you are will still be warring, you know, with the dark side. that moved me so much, because i thought about how many young black boys are in the streets now warring with something that ever able to sit down and say, here's why you feel that way.
8:46 am
>> how do you think the world changes when we know each other's stories? >> we all become more human. and we all realize that there is a common denominator in our humanity. that there is a shared pain. there is shared struggle, as well as shared joys. it allows us all to see the humanity in ourselves and in each other. >> you know, they believe there's a lot of interest in this series because the trailer, millions of people -- it's the highest-rated trailer, people just wanting to see that. it dropped overnight. there's five episodes. and, you know, it's very well done in terms of the people. gaga's in it. she goes by the name stephanie, her real name. glenn close in it, talking about her sister. robin williams' son is talking about his dad's -- when it dad took his own. don't ow, but it's something relle everybody. a very important subject. and i think it's going to change the way people think and react to mental health.
