5:01 pm
to work in stores you're not going to believe it because we're going to show you how our rights are tied it's time to boost your news i.q. . now topping 4900000 with 325000 reported deaths now here in the u.s. alone the number of cases now at 1500000 with 92000 deaths now taking a closer look at what's happening in the nation the c.d.c. has set guidelines for reopening america only to be shelved by the white house claiming that the guidelines were too specific now as a result the c.d.c. quietly releases a revised shorter version of the guidelines on its web site instead now this is all 50 states they're in the process of reopening just in time for memorial day and then now concerns are being raised as coburn $1000.00 patient data including the names and home addresses of private citizens are being shared with law enforcement in several states one of them. being tennessee which is why we're going to bring in
5:02 pm
someone born and raised there host of news the as he has got to know him as an investigative journalist and co-host of boom bust than swine thank you both for being here now that considering we'll start with you considering that we do have hipaa privacy laws in place here in the united states house is being allowed the way it's they're getting around hipaa laws right now anyways is to say that they're not using to define information a lot of the data that they're gathering that's the official line but what we know is that whether it's contact tracing through an app or it's context raising through police departments that personal information is being gathered and that is not a legal process the problem that we're running into right now when it comes to these issues of people being tracked and we're talking about if someone registers and they say we i have coded 1000 they test positive for everyone who is living in the certain home is then put into this list and now being tracked and traced and by the way this is what law enforcement as well as municipal leaders local leaders and
5:03 pm
really global leaders are calling for on a mass scale being done through electronic apps on your phone your i phone or your android phone and so they get around hipaa by saying it won't be specifically identified or they'll protect this information though will store it they won't sell it but there's a lot of gray areas here about how this is being done without being in violation of federal law it's interesting now scotty will go to you could policies like this and actually hurting the fight to control and reduce the number of coven 1000 cases that we're saying. what lesson think there just like ben says some states are saying you know we're just going to group them by address don't know who specifically in that home has been 1000 but there are states like the one i live in tennessee that is actually releasing the individual name that lives at that address that's extremely concerning so you're talking about we're trying to get people to go get tested that's one of the best ways they're saying they're going to be able to prevent the spread of the crowed about iris is to test as many as we can well if you think that if you get tested positive that possibly
5:04 pm
a police officer could end up at the door knowing that you or other kind of buyers there isn't making a lot of people very hesitant to go and test especially at some of these places that are are rather she didn't go through the private location but even then they still have her health department if you test positive so of course what this is maybe people do expect in urban low income communities who already have an apprehension for one to just say you know what i'm just going to keep myself that i'm sick i'm sick i don't want to put my name on a federal registry yet i will see you have the other side too or people might not even want to go get tested because i think if i go there i might end up getting at having to sit in the waiting room to get tested now ben we don't talk about the patients' rights but what about the rights of you have police you have firefighters e.m.t. is now they know that they're going to be you know in a hazardous zone they know that they know that signing up but should their health and the potential of exposure also be taken into consideration as well and all this . while going to say no and here's why not because i don't think that they should
5:05 pm
be protected i think that the they need to be protected but the word right as a police officer you don't have a right to invade someone else's privacy in order to feel safe especially when we're talking about in terms of a virus where people are in most cases across the country have been sheltered at home people aren't even going out one thing that we're finding there are 2 very important issues here one is there is no evidence whatsoever that contact tracing reduces the number of cases joe. as we are now finding out that sheltering at home is not reducing the number of cases there is a new report out of new york andrew cuomo the governor there just gave a news conference and said that it was shocking to him to find out that 66 percent of all new cases in new york were from people who sheltered at home not from people who were go without violating the stay at home waters people who stayed at home because the misnomer is that i know fair and you come from a family of doctors the misnomer that a lot of people have here is that if i you know go to the grocery store and people
5:06 pm
wear gloves they're coronaviruses in getting beat it's on the things we're buying at the stores it's on things we're getting the fast food locations in fact people wearing gloves are spreading a lot of it the reality is what we need is more testing of antibodies to find out who is actually at it and testing of who has it now contact tracing will not help with that we're way too far down the road and you know it's also one of those things where they say you go out to home depot let's say you go and bring it back everybody sheltered at home it's going to spread around the entire house they're even calling for people to shelter in their own little rooms and quarantine themselves in the house i mean come on but you know scottie you are right there on the front lines in tennessee one of those states that's releasing these specific names addresses how's the policy going over over there i mean what are you saying tell us well and that's i think for once you have actually a.c.l.u. and conservative groups actually united in this they're not happy with that but the big thing that happened in these 10 states that are able to release individual names is it was done basically by an executive order out of the governor's office
5:07 pm
it was not passed state legislature in fact the state legislature did not even know about it until the local press started reportage that is what makes a lot of people trying to go wait a minute why are you have to do this under cover that people know so. and you know we were losing some connection there with scotty but you know we'll go back to ben really quick for ben you know what say you as far as you know some of these states and how you know scotty just said there that these states are now finding out that you know we're actually losing been there too so you know we're going to get back to them and hopefully we can reconnect with them again but moving on now we have operation haircut that's actually going to be taking place in michigan today as barbers along with hundreds of reporters protesting against the state's lockdown orders now this is the 4th protest to date criticizing governor gretchen whitmer his decision to keep businesses closed during this pandemic now so far 3 barbers have been ticketed for cutting hair at the capitol lawn.
5:08 pm
as many businesses have come to a halt during this pandemic adopting artificial intelligence and robots could actually start to help the economy are to correspondent not me natasha sweet has more on the benefits and concerns surrounding this high tech innovation great if came is when it may favorite food just scared to find it be robots and artificial intelligence are helping to cut costs while reducing the spread of infections well some are concerned robots will take over human jobs this trend of global retailers using this technology has already been on the rise before stay at home orders were issued and businesses order to close as a result of the crown a virus pandemic robots like tally have been stocking store shelves and clothing rox tally is fully autonomous and mobile designed to help retailers take a better inventory within their stores the goal of tally is to help ensure product is always stocked in the right place and has the right price and now those behind
5:09 pm
the technology of tally say the concept is in high demand it creates an opportunity where there is actually more social distancing in the environment because these tasks are being performed by by robot another person san diego based brain core makes a robot operating system that can automate existing machines. its main product is a self driving floor cleaner working faster than a human can it even avoids running into people during story hours company executives say more than $10000.00 brain powered robots are utilized by major retailers including supermarket chains kroger and walmart even airports and schools in april the company raising an additional $36000000.00 in venture capital to expand into other areas such as shelf analytics and inventory delivery we're not trying to replace a human i'm companies that generally do try to do that in robotics often fail because humans are social excell so many of the tasks really were an advanced goal there allows them to perform at a high productive level really able enables them to focus on the higher value tasks
5:10 pm
the robots on get out but with unemployment at 14.7 percent in the economy dropping some 20000000 jobs in april many can't help but worry about their future they typically won't call in sick but sometimes they do great. in fact you can reduce the amount of human contact and therefore it will be able to you know reduce the possibility of disease spread san francisco based bossanova robotics produces machines similar to tally recently bossanova announced its scanning shelf robot will be expanding to $1001.00 march stores this year that's up from 350 last year the trend is operating to those who worry their jobs won't return after the pandemic there's a trade off there's a real benefits to automation and those many of them are economic i think the question is you know what happens to workers if there are if they're not doing things the robots are doing now developers say there are many cases where robots
5:11 pm
actually help humans do their jobs not replace them take bomb disposal robots for instance and in terms of things like medicine where life and death decisions need to be made instantly those can't be replaced with ai although technology can still make a doctor's visit. easier and amazon who has been using front and center are still nice people they actually increased hiring to 100000 new jobs even offering a pay raise in 2018 a study looked at 3 recessions over the past 30 years it found 88 percent of jobs lost were in routine quote automatable occupations in 2016 a paper examined 100000000 job post online before and after the 2000 a recession it concluded that affected companies were replacing employees with a mix of more skilled workers and technology so while the job outlook may look grim robots may just be able to help keep the economy flowing during this and certain

so if you browse your twitter feed lately you've probably seen the name mika brzezinski now the m s n b c co-host had kind of a meltdown 1st on air and then on twitter going after president donald trump she's so upset at trump's tweet a better husband and co-host joe scarborough that she has already set up a meeting with the c.e.o. of twitter here's a sample the germs you're spreading on twitter 1st of all twitter you shouldn't be allowing this and you should be taking these tweets down and you should be ashamed of yourself you'll be hearing from me on this because this is b.s. but donald you are sick person you're really a cruel sick disgusting person. and there you have it joining me now to discuss this who is not cruel sick and disgusting the host of politics larry king hey larry good to see you at my birthday buddy are right so larry there's this term going around with the young ones like us this term called going karen or can i
5:17 pm
speak to the manager now it's been blowing up all over twitter right at facebook all about people being tattle tales now you're a parent i'm a child so i'm sure you've seen your kids tattle tale on each other and sometimes it's a good thing you find some stuff out right is what nietzsche is doing though is this really tattling or is this actually just her being a proactive journalist. no she's being a proactive wife and i understand completely where she's coming from her husband is being not directly accused by the president but certainly hinting at the this murder or the president hinting at a murder of a assistant to scarboro years ago and mikel would like twitter would take it off i know jack dorsey i don't think he will because he said that any world leader who sends out anything twitter is almost obligated to carry her only other course as joe's only other course is to sue the president which he
5:18 pm
can't do until he's out of office they could sue twitter wouldn't that be interesting for twitter's carrying something of a salacious nature. and i wouldn't be surprised if they did because they're really ticked and i don't know i would or i question is why does the president get into these kind of a silly things he doesn't like scarborough criticizing him she brings up the death of years ago that might have been scarboro involved that's why i can't forget about a can i know donald trump for years a still can't figure him out and over scarborough's i know how hurt they are they have a right to be heard they're being if not directly accuse of being shammai accused of a crime why why why the level of image data but i understand her anger and you know i could understand as well but i'm going to play devil's advocate here because i like to keep things fair and balanced so you have joe and mika every
5:19 pm
morning criticizing the president on imus n.b.c. we know this you know donald trump we know he is a hands down base level he is an entertainer he knows how to go to get those ratings and how to fire up his base and that's one of these things where it's like hey you know what i'm kind of tired of you guys taken punches at me now for me gloves are off i'm taking a punch at you what say you. i think a bunch of them politically but criminally too for kind of hint that your open investigation into a death of a couple of years ago. that it's dirty pool scarboro criticize trump on policy i don't watch them every morning but they criticize trump on policy i think trump is lowering himself by doing this soiled this general anger but hey you're right he they not the president every day he's got a right to come back she'll come back at them politically but i think it's dirty pool all the way around the whole thing is
5:20 pm
a non-story story now you do have another domino effect here where they're saying that they want you know they want to call on twitter for them to take down this tweet you know kind of you know it could be one of these things where that's just the straw that keeps you know it's the domino effect now that it's going to be where you know could then everybody else start asking for tweets to come down you know does twitter have an obligation to take this down or do you think this is just going to be the start of something opening a can of worms if you will while i know jack dorsey very like him a lot he's between a twix the israel rock and a hard place here can twitter take down. tweets sent out by world leaders. i don't think they can i think can but i don't think they would. it's just you know i believe in free speech you can say what you want. i don't think gore she will will relinquish that i don't think she'll take him down so larry you now have actually you know kind of piggybacking off of this you have hollywood
