responsibly manage our relationship. >> reporter: an intense diplomatic push meant to avoid a direct conflict with a nuclear power. last month, a chinese fighter jet buzzed a u.s. surveillance aircraft weeks before a chinese warship nearly collided with a u.s. ship. in two days of talks, blinken's main goal was to persuade chinese officials to resume contact between the two militaries, cut off since august last year. >> it's less a hotline and more regular engagement, regular communication so that they understand what we're doing and not doing. >> reporter: but xi did not agree. u.s. sanctions on china's defense minister were an excuse for why he refuses calls. espionage is another pressure point. china recently expanded a spy station in nearby cuba to intercept u.s. communications. >> did you raise the listening post in cuba that was recently disclosed? >> i did. i'm not going to characterize their response, but i told them that this is a serious concern for us. >> reporter: blinken's original february trip was postponed

4:13 am
>> we are. >> reporter: secretary blinken told me that president xi may come to san francisco in november and meet with president biden there. but, jericka, a lot depends on managing this relationship. it's complicated, and there are a lot of tensions. as for president biden coming here to china, blinken told me, never say never. >> all right. margaret brennan for us tonight, thank you. now to the deadly weekend of violence and mass shootings that killed at least a dozen people and injured more than 100. so far this year, more than 800 children and teens have been killed by guns. cbs's charlie de mar reports tonight from a violent crime scene outside of chicago, where a survivor described the chaos.

4:15 am
>> we know that there's a correlation between amounts and levels of guns in a community and gun deaths. >> reporter: mariah dixon says helife heen changed forever. >> i'm 23 years old, and i don't know if i'll be ever able to attend parties again. >> reporter: and here in willowbrook, illinois, investigators are still processing this massive crime scene. we're told that the sheriff's department is currently interviewing some of those witnesses and some of those victims. but at this point, no arrests have been made. jericka. >> charlie de mar from willowbrook, illinois, for us tonight. thank you. we turn now to a looming crisis when it comes to women's health care. the shortage of ob-gyn doctors is expected to get worse in the years ahead. it's having an effect on medical students, who are deciding on what and where to practice based on a state's abortion laws. cbs's janet shamlian takes a closer look at what's changed since roe v. wade was overturned

4:18 am
