7:00 am
thank you for watching everybody. don't forget the news continues all day on cbsn bay area. >>cbis morning sup next. s om tayere, july 14th, 2021. i'm gayle king. that's anthony mason. an deg rising covid numbers nationwide are putting children at serious risk from adults who are not getting vaccinated. why some kids are landing in the icu. how vaccine politics may be worsening this pandemic. >> u.s. prosecutors say they foiled a plot by iran to kidnap an american citizen in new york. what we're learning from the journalist and outspoken critic of the iranian regime. >> president biden says republican attempts to restrict voting are the most significant
7:01 am
test of our democracy since the civil war. why the gop says democrats' efforts to block a voting overhaul in texas by fleeing to washington is a stunt. >> and the cost of travel is surging. what's behind the spike and how it could affect your summer vacation plans. >> everybody wants summer vacation. but first, here's today's eye-opener. it's your world in 90 seconds. >> are you on the side of truth or lies, fact or fiction, democracy? that's what it's coming down to. >> in a fiery speech, the president accused republicans of waging an un-american assault on democracy by enacting voting restrictions in gop-controlled states. >> we will not give in. we will overcome. >> dramatic and deadly wildfires now burning across much of the shaping up to be the country's worst and most widespread fire season ever. >> concern about the rising number of covid cases.
7:02 am
>> health officials say it's driven mostly by lagging vaccination rates. >> those who pay the price are the little kids who depend on the adults and adolescents to get vaccinated in order to slow transmission. >> protesters in cuba getting support from their homeland brethren, places like miami. >> all that -- >> that's a goldfish. >> the city of minnesota fished these football-sized fellows out of a lake. >> braves legend hank aaron was honored. >> his widow was presented a jersey when he broke babe ruth's home run record. >> sir richard is here to tell us all about his recent voyage to the edge of space. on sunday before takeoff, branson tweeted this picture of himself and elon. it's like they say, money can't buy friendship, or apparently shoes. >> you take yours off, come on.
7:03 am
>> all right, oh, yeah. >> this morning's eye-opener is presented by progressive. making it easy to bundle insurance. >> was that sir richard branson? he's absolutely giddy, isn't he, still? i love it. >> he's wanted to do this his whole life. >> nice feet, stephen colbert. >> that's not okay. >> we won't be doing it here, folks. >> we will spare you. we welcome you to "cbs this morning" and we're going to begin with an alarming new spike in the coronavirus and the growing political fight over how to stop the spread among younger americans. according to johns hopkins university, the nationwide average of daily cases doubled in the last three weeks with the south hit especially hard. now a top vaccination official in tennessee says she's been fired amid reports of a republican pressure campaign to stop promoting vaccines for teenagers. in mississippi, multiple children are now in the icu.
7:04 am
omar omar is in the state capital. we keep hearing it has one of the lowest vaccination rates in the country. that's not good. >> reporter: good morning, gayle. the large majority of people in the hospitals in mississippi are unvaccinated people. the state has the lowest vaccination rate in the country. only about a third of the population is fully vaccinated and now doctors are saying that's putting children at risk. across the state of mississippi, seven children are now hospitalized with covid-19, fighting the dangerous virus in intensive care units. two are on ventilators. when you have younger kids now getting hospitalized, what do people need to take from that? >> what we're hearing is this is a mix of children with underlying conditions and some that were previously healthy. >> chairman of the board of trustees at mississippi state medical association says children are more at risk when vaccination rates are low. >> in this phase of the pandemic
7:05 am
there's really two choices. it's to vaccinate or you're going to get covid. it is that contagious of a virus. >> reporter: in tennessee the state's top vaccination official says she was fired this week after suggesting some teenagers could get vaccinated without parental consent. >> this delta variant is beginning to bear down on us and we know it's more infectious. >> reporter: meanwhile, "the tennessean" says it obtained emails and a report from the state's health department that claimed it will stop vaccine outreach to miners or all diseases, amid pressure from republican lawmakers. in a statement to cbs news, the tennessee department of health said we continue to support outreach efforts and that it has in no way shuttered the immunizations for children program. we are simply mindful of how certain tactics could hurt that progress. but as kids get ready to return to ririsk of covid could only get worse.
7:06 am
>> they are going to go back into schools with no mask mandates and no protection from a vaccination. we talked to a pediatrician who leads the covid outreach at her church in jackson, mississippi, and she tells us the toughest people to convince to get the shot, younger people. but she says that the spike in cases of children in the icu could act as a wake-up call. >> let's hope so. omar, thank you so much. president biden is condemning republican efforts to restrict voting access, calling it the most significant test of our democracy since the civil war. more than a dozen states have tightened their voting laws since the 2020 election, according to one analysis. ed o'keefe is at the white house. there was one key issue the president did not mention in his speech. >> that's right, good morning. so far he has not joined the calls to end the filibuster, the senate procedural tactic that can limit debate. many democrats believe that's what's holding up attempts to pass voting right legislation. but even if the president
7:07 am
supported ending the filibuster, he would have to convince moderate members of his own party to do the same. >> 21st century jim crow assault is real, it's unrelenting, and we're going to challenge it vigorously. >> reporter: speaking from philadelphia, tpresident biden forcefully attacked voting restrictions being enacted in more than a dozen gop controlled states. >> stand up, for god's sake, and help prevent this concerted effort to undermine our election and the sacred right to vote. have you no shame? >> reporter: the white house hopes the president's speech will jump-start a push for new federal voting rights legislation, but the bills he wants passed can't clear the senate unless it abolishes the filibuster. the president directly addressed unfounded accusations raised by former president trump that democrats stole last year's presidential election. >> the big lie is just that, a big lie. >> reporter: the speech came as more than 50 democratic state
7:08 am
lawmakers left texas in order to stop debate on gop elections law changes. >> the motion fails for a lack of quorum. >> reporter: they spent their first full day in washington pushing the senate to pass voting rights legislation. >> we're hoping that congress will understand the urgency. >> this is about americans. >> reporter: the group met with vice president harris and supportive senate democrats. >> what's happening in texas by the gop legislators and governor is just outrageous. >> reporter: but republicans continue to dismiss their dc trip as a political stunt. >> it's disingenuous and a downright false to claim that any effort to prevent fraud is a veiled attempt at voter suppression. >> reporter: while texas' governor threatened to arrest the democrats, they said they're not concerned. >> we would not go to jail. >> reporter: so the republican-controlled texas house has ordered texas law enforcement to round up those democrats, but the texas rangers have no jurisdiction outside the
7:09 am
lone star state. if, however, the democrats were to return to texas during the special session, they could indeed be rounded up, brought to the state capitol and stay there until official business is completed. >> wow, ed. another one of the president's legislative priorities, of course, is infrastructure. there was news overnight that democratic senators had reached a deal on a $3.5 trillion plan that they say they'll try to pass without republican support. how can they do that? >> reporter: exactly. we're diving into the senate toolbox this morning and all the various procedural rules. there's one called reconciliation which allows them to pass a budget bill with a simple majority. all 50 members of the senate democratic caucus, plus the vice president. in order to do that -- they're going to do that now bypassing this bill and it includes a handful of democratic priorities, among other things, payment for child care, more funding for child care, expanding medicare, and addressing climate change. it's unlikely that any
7:10 am
republican is going to support this plan, but it includes a way to pay for the $3.5 trillion price tag. that is why president biden is headed to the capitol today to convince those democrats to sign on. anthony, you could say we're entering the arm-twisting phase of the biden presidency. >> ed, thank you very much. now to a dramatic alleged kidnap plot by iran to seize an iranian-american journalist living in the u.s. alinejad has been outspoken for women's rights and abuses in her native country. prosecutors say iranian intelligence agents tried to lure her away from her brooklyn home. jeff, good morning. what did she tell you? >> reporter: good morning. this activist has gotten numerous death threats over the years because of her writings and sociadi e told whe the fbi showed her surveillance photos of her and her family allegedly taken
7:11 am
by iranian intelligence, that took the threat to a whole new level. >> i was like, wow, the republic is that close to me, even here in brooklyn? an this is the nature of the islamic republic, kidnapping their dissidents and executing them. >> alinejad has millions of followers on social media where she posts videos she receives from iranian women defying the regime. the department of justice alleges iran directed a plot to kidnap a u.s.-based journalist and american citizen with the intention to lure our citizen back to iran as retaliation for their freedom of expression. alinejad confirms she is that american citizen. according to the indictment, the kidnappers planned to transport the american from new york to venezuela, a country friendly to the tehran regime, and from there to iran. prior to that plot, they allegedly attempted to induce the american's relatives to lure
7:12 am
her to a third country where they would extract her back to iran. but the family members refused. last night alinejad told me iranians have gotten used to be scared of their own government. >> this is a time that shows you scared of me.t in iran, they're- it gives me hope that the government is scared of the voice of people, because i'm the voice of people. >> reporter: in recent years, iran has become increasingly aggressive about seizing opposition journalists abroad, amid tensions over its tattered nuclear deal. according to the indictment, five critics of the regime were targeted. >> i take it you're going to keep writing? >> yeah, i'm not going to -- i am not going to give up. if they arrest me or kill me, they cannot keep the iranian people silent who are fighting for freedom. >> reporter: we have reached out to the iranian mission at the u.n. for comment on these charges and so far have not heard back. one of the five people indicted is in custody, the four who
7:13 am
remain at large could face life in prison. gayle? >> she's very brave. thank you. great hair and a bad ass, too. thank you. the summer wildfire season is intensifying with nearly a dozen new f reported just yesterday alone. so far this year we've seen more than 33,000 wildfires across the country. that's the most in a decade. the national interagency fire center says the fires have burned 2 million acres, that's an area larger than the state of delaware. the biggest and most dangerous fires are in the west. lilia luciano reports on the effort to control them. >> reporter: from california to washington to idaho and arizona, more than 14,000 firefighters are battling to contain more thn 60 wildfires out west. oregon's bootleg fire is now the nation's largest, growing to over 200,000 acres and forcing hundreds from their homes. >> it was hungry, it was mean, it was ugly and we could watch
7:14 am
it. >> reporter: in california, crews on the front lines of the beckwourth fire north of lake tahoe captured these dramatic images of flames closing in. the river fire continues to spread across two counties during peak tourist season. >> high stress. >> amy stevens manages a bar and restaurant in the nearby town of ahwahnee. >> are you adapting to the frequency of these fires and the longer heat? >> absolutely. it has become the new normal. it's been so frequent every year, it's like when is it going to start, not is it going to start. >> the only power we have is to go, go, go. >> reporter: veteran firefighter zachary resnick is a squad leader for the hot spots, a crew that responds to some of the biggest and most dangerous fires. we caught up with the group as they wrapped up their first day on the river fire. >> what concerns you the most about the fires right now? >> the lack of resources, and it's not because we don't have a ton of firefighters in
7:15 am
california. there's just that many fires. >> reporter: this river fire is now 15% contained. firefighters are hard at work to fully contain this one and move on to the next. we're also learning there are several fires within the national park but those are small and officials tell us they are not affecting any visitor areas or park services. >> tay safe. thank you so much. the department of homeland security is telling cubans not to try to flee to the u.s., as tensions continue to rise in cuba. police and security forces are patrolling the capital of havana, part of a major crackdown after the largest antigovernment protests there in decades. demonstrators protested food and medicine shortages and demanded economic reforms. at least 100 people are reported to be under arrest or missing. one of those arrested is cuban journalist camilla acosta who writes for a spanish newspaper.
7:16 am
spain is demanding her immediate release. state-run media says at least one person was killed in the protests and several others, including security officials, were hurt. the protests have spread to miami where hundreds of demonstrators partially shut down a local expressway last night. another group gathered in front of the white house calling for freedom for cuba. the state department has condemned violence against peaceful protesters in cuba. in south africa, we're seeing some of the worst political violence in that country since apartheid, and the death toll is now up to at least 72. this comes after former president jacob zuma was sent to jail. a suburb of johannesberg has seen some of the most violent disturbances. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, south africa is on its knees after days of violence but so far security forces have been slow to bring the unrest under control. hords of looters stormed retail
7:17 am
stores in south africa, grabbing anything they could get their hands on. outnumbered and overwhelmed, police struggled to contain the violence. rubber bullets, tear gas, there's not one shop that hasn't been attacked and completely ransacked. dozens are dead. this man was injured in the mayhem. nobody stopped to help him. and in one heart-stopping moment this toddler was saved. the violence was triggered by the jailing of former president jacob zuma for refusing to appear before a commission investigating corruption during his nine-year tenure. his supporters took to the s,t over into a rage fueled by persistent poverty that's been exacerbated by a deadly third wave of the covid pandemic. but for the shop owners, victims
7:18 am
of the rage, it was all too much. over 1,000 arrests have been made and now the south african military has been deployed to hot spots, but thrown into the mix are armed malitias taking the law into their own hands. >> if they start shooting, there will be war that we don't want here in south africa. >> reporter: but for five straight days the peace has been shattered in the deadliest violence this country has seen in the more than 27 years since apartheid ended. of immediate concern now, some food supply chains have been disrupted, and oil refinery has been closed, and the transport of oxygen to fight this pandemic has been hampered. >> boy, reporting from south africa. i have friends in south africa who said you can't believe what you're seeing. it's been bubbling for the last five days and it's just now reaching american media. they said it's shocking what is
7:19 am
happening over there. >> and you obviously saw debra was in the middle of it there. >> exactly. very frightening. ahead, why travel prices are sky high in this country. right now, just when a lot of people are trying to get away. but,

it's 7:26. a possible new lead in the search for that missing runner in the east bay hills. search parties have been deapplying since the early morning hours after a family reported hearing yelling from the sonel side of the regional park where he went missing. at least one person is dead this morning after a pedestrian and vehicle collision in san jose. the crash forced a major road to shut down for a while as officers investigated. it's unclear whether dui may have been a factor. today san francisco's last mass vaccination site is closing. shots will remain available through a network of

and call pg&e right after so we can both respond out and keep the public safe. good-bye! wow! guerrero jr. has doubled -- >> that one took everyone's breath away. the monster home run from vladimir guerrero jr. was just one of the big highlights of last night's mlb all-star game in colorado. guerrero jr. was named the mvp, helping lead the american league to the 5-2 victory over the national league. also making headlines was the angels star otani who got the win for the al while making history as the first player to start as both a pitcher and a hitter in al- . it was an especially international game for the first time, three players born outside the u.s. got the win, the save,
7:31 am
and the mvp award. guerrero jr. was born in canada, ohtani is from japan, and australian whacks pitcher lian hendriks got the save. quite an achievement. controversy swirling going into the game, of course, because of the remarks of steven a. smith which we talked about yesterday of espn who was critical of ohtani for having an interpreter and saying if the game wants to ingratiate itself with the american public, we shouldn't have that happen. >> i got to say kudos to steven a. smith. i watched the show yesterday first take for the first time. after we reported on it yesterday, it was mentioned that he was going to address it on the show. he really did, anthony and adriana, looked at the camera and said, i screwed up, it was my mistake. i'm learning a lot. people have reached out from the asian american community which he appreciated. they devoted a chunk of the show to continue talking about why it was painful. he said big screw-up on his part. it was interesting and

"the new york post" calls it the incredible shrinking dollar with prices rising nearly 5.5%, the worst in 13 years. some of the biggest spikes are in the travel sector leaving many of us struggling to find better rates for our getaways. erroll barnett is following this. what is going on here? >> reporter: yeah. hey there. good morning. look, we have a perfect storm here of high demand and persistent supply chain issues. there are increasing numbers of people who want to get away, but there are decreasing method of transportation available to get there. and that means higher costs for all of us on the move. when you drill down into these digits, though, you'll find some reason for optimism later and perhaps some tough choices now. >> i think it's highway robbery. prices are ridiculous now. >> reporter: from california gas

7:34 am
pandemic. >> we've been spoiled, and now we're coming back to what might be better considered to be normal pricing. >> reporter: sax says expect prices to keep getting steeper for two reasons -- >> partly because we're not fully back to where we were pre-pandemic. both on air fares and in hotel prices. but also because wages are rising in the industry. because it's been difficult to bring employees back. >> reporter: frustrated travelers may have to get used to our new normal. and for halte who turns 21 today, that means saving up for a ticket for when she moves to ireland with her beau later this yar. >> still doing what we need to to get those tickets. it's just a bit more of a strain fina pandemi is be on us weighing down buss it's at % ofheas in 2019

in this "eye on money" we're going to focus on programs that could boost the credit scores of millions of americans. consumer demands for loans and credit cards was up -- listen to this number -- 39% in april, that's big, compared to last year. it's higher than pre-pandemic levels. and banks are gearing up to help more people borrow. two initiatives. one for credit cards, another for mortgages could help expand the number of americans who qualify for the loans. cbs news business analyst, you remember her, jill schlesinger -- it's been over a year since you've been sitting at our
8:18 am
table. we're so glad to see you in person. >> i'm not in a little box anymore. >> we're so glad to see you. let's talk about the banks. we keep hearing they're offering credit cards to people who don't have a credit history. is that surprising to you? >> it sounds like the bad old days, but that's not what this is about. there is actually a government-backed initiative, and it's trying to get people who have been shut out of the credit system -- get into the system. and how are they going to do that? they're going to expand things they look at to determine creditworthiness. do you pay bills on time, what's your account balance. there is important because there are certain people in lower income communities, people of color, and younger people who have essentially not been able to get credit, so i think there is a good program. it's a good step forward to get more people in the pool. >> what do you think people should know before they open a credit card? i got my first one in college. it just came to me. i was very excited. i felt so grown-up. >> yes. >> then i got into trouble. >> that's always the -- >> not so good. what do you think people should
8:19 am
know? >> this is the warning story. of course we know credit can be dangerous. before you sign up for anything, we are talking about understanding the rules, the fees, the penalties, the interest rate. and one thing that's really important about credit and credit history is a your cdi h is do you pay your bills on time. so i suggest that people set up automatic payments before they start this process so they never miss atainment. there's never a -- a payment. there's never a late fee. no nasty surprise. >> when we talk about establishing a credit history, explain to people what that means. >> what is really happening is a bank or a lender is trying to say, hey, is anthony a good risk? should we extend money to him, and will he pay it back? the way you establish a credit history is that you have to actually get credit. >> yes. >> this is really weird because people say, well, i can't have a history because i can't have credit. that's why these programs are important. why is so important? credit is an important component of your personal financial
8:20 am
management. you're going to need to borrow money at some point, maybe for a car, maybe for a house. and without a credit history, that may actually shut you out of thork m in ino wantse it responsibljill for the 53 milli americans or so who are credit invisible, where thecan they le about those things? when your bill closes is different from your payment date, minimum versus what's due. there are so many things that are confusing. >> i think one of the great developments is seeing the consumer financial protection bureau really amp up their website. so it's -- i think it's consumerfinance.gov, cfpb. they've got a lot of resources and tools. really, this is on you to some extent because banks are going to give you this money, you got to learn how to use it ot easie some of the low-income buyers. what -- how much money are you talking about there? how important is this?

8:22 am
cards and home equity lines. if you have outstanding credit with wells fargo, you're a customer, they're going to allow you to pay that back over time. >> right. >> if you don't, they're shutting that down line in 60 days. you may want to shop for -- >> why? >> i think they want to get out of the business. it's not a big enough part of the business. shop around for other alternatives. remember, there are other banks, community banks are great, credit unions are great. they often offer really good rates. >> all right. jill schlesinger, thank you, jill. >> great to see you in person. >> good to see you. we'll be right back. stay with us.

hospital about how they say the program has helped them heal. our senior medical correspondent, dr. tara narula, she's here at the table in person. we get so excited to take a look at the science of resilience and why experts say we should all be hopeful about the future. i remember when you did the first story about how medical workers were struggling, it never occurred to me about the burden that they were facing. this was early on. >> i know. >> this is so important. it continues. >> this is such an important story. >> yeah. >> for those of us who have ever wondered if we really have what it takes to bounce back from difficult times in our lives, experts i spoke with say the proof is in the science. i sat down with three nurse managers from mt. sinai here in new york who just completed a resilience workshop. they say it's transformed their lives. summer is here marking a new beginning for benson kahiu, jenie drexler, and chiemena carrena. all three are nurse managers at mt. sinai in new york. was there anything in your past that prepared you for what you faced with covid this past year?

>> i have been a nurse since 2005. 2020 i would say was the most difficult in my entire nursing career. >> a few years ago if i told me that i would be doing this, i would say, there's no way that would happen. >> you just fight and do what you have to do toteerear on the front lines, they've just completed a five-week-long resilience workshop. it's the first of its kind created specifically for health care workers fighting the war on covid. you all obviously went into a field where your entire focus is on taking care of someone else. sounds like from this workshop many of you learned how to take care of yourselves. >> we learned a lot of coping skills. look at the good in every situation. >> live in the moment which is something that i struggle with every day. >> we're fighting this virus. it's a fight. we saw what was happening, we

needed to respond to take care of our health care workers. >> dr. dennis charney has treated victims of trauma for decades. at the height of the pandemic he created the center for resilience at mt. sinai. >> the brain is what we had call plastic. the more you use it, the better it functions. the brain actually changes for the better when you work at things like becoming more resilient. >> reporter: what have you seen in the imaging studies that you've done? >> there seeps to be a more enhanced relationship between the emotion parts of the brain and the cognition parts of the brain. they seem to work better in concert when you're under stress. >> reporter: for a lot of people they think resilience is sort of psycho mumbo-jumbo babble, but what you're saying is there's actual science there where you're changing the neurochemistry and the functioning of the brain. >> yeah. that's right. >> reporter: but how do we train our brains to become more resili resilient? practice, says charney. >> you're training yourself in all aspects of your life. so when you face another trauma, you say, i'm equipped.

>> reporter: the key equipment he says is accessible to us all -- building strong connections, creating a sense of purpose, and an optimistic outlook are all characteristics of resilient people. we've heard it called a tobox >> iall it a psychological toolbox. >> reporter: you can pull out the elements that you need when you face the next challenge. >> that's right. and we've seen that over and over again. >> reporter: when you look back, do you believe that what you went through will prepare you now for challenges that are to come in the future? >> bring it on. >> absolutely. >> you never think you're strong until you go through it and get through it. and. >> and you look back and realize how far you've come. >> reporter: dr. charney hopes their program can also be applied on a larger scale beyond the hospital setting, into communities that have been deeply affected by covid-19 and the events of the past year. >> fascinating. i think we could all use a resilience workshop. thank you for that. we'll be right back. stay with us.
