these coming winter months, are going to still die, we suspect, based on forecasts from the university of washingtonndemic probably is going to be in terms of daily and weekly death tolls. we're not there yet. i suspect to all of your viewers out there, end of march 2022, once we're past cold and flu season and worse of covid, that's truly the light at the end of the tunnel. >> some school districts are starting to roll back the mask requirement. medically, is that the right move >> i think it's too early to start rolling it back at this moment and yet we need an off-ramp away from masks that's what people are craving, normalcy so we're at a place we need to think about that when you look dispassionately at the data, shep, here's what it says, that if you're without serious medical conditions, less than 65 and get a breakthrough illness, and you're that rare individual, you might not have a lot of illness, it's not a big deal and some research out of netherlands say if you test positive, the risk of transmission to an unvaccinated child at home is also extremely low. so that's what normalcy looks li

slide of what we can expect through february of 2022, we're still expecting -- this is what university of washingtonsee -- potentially on the level of 1,500 daily deaths to pick up december into february. that means 10,000 weekly deaths week over week well into cold and flu season. i was just talking to my colleagues at the university of colorado school of medicine literally a few hours ago, and one of the questions was, why is colorado experiencing this? they have 72% one-dose vaccine uptake rate, 66% of coloradans are fully vaccinated. well, brian, it turns out in the era of this contagious delta variant, we need that number to be higher. there is a little room for error. even if you have 20% of your 18 and over population unvaccinated, that's enough to swamp hospitals. never mind the threat of flu, never mind the threat of kids flu, rsv. there's a lot of threats out there over the next four to five months. i suspect light at the end of the until in february 2022, but that's where we are now sadly. >> wow. this merck antiviral, i think i speak for a lot of us when we heard there was going to be a

what we are forecasting at the university of washington is 10,000 weekly deaths, week over week, chris why are we seeing that? michigan, the upper midwest, other parts of the upper midwest like minnesota, we're seeing spikes in deaths because michigan has a fully vaccinated rate of only 55%. something similar in minnesota. colorado, chris, i have colleagues in denver, their icus are at capacity, a fully vaccinated rate in the mid 60s. it goes to show we have little room for error here. that goal is a lot higher to get more coverage in the 16 and older crowd. that's why we're seeing what we're seeing, that 30% unvaccinated spread out across the country is enough to surge hospitals. so we still have to reach those that are unvaccinated. i will say the quicker the fda does approve these oral anti-virals from pfizer and merck the more helpful it will be to mitigate the loss of life. >> does it make sense then for everyone to get tested before getting together for celebrations, especially if they're traveling? >> absolutely. you know, i -- as a pulmonologist, i'll say that there's been a lo

the white house, wiley, mac, that is chief strategy officer for population health at the university of washington. he joins us via skype from seattle to talk more about this. thanks very much for being with us. let me ask you, 1st of all about the travel bands that have been placed by a various countries around the world. there's been a lot of criticism that they don't, they're not really going to make much difference in terms of containing the spread of this new variant. what's your view on that? that's very true that it by you couple of weeks of time. that's it. so you can prepare yourself, but historically we've known over and over again that they will not stop escalation of the virus. and it's already in many countries right now, it's a matter of detecting it. and, and as far as the, the, the need to get a vaccine a for this, and whether the current vaccines will be, i will be able to, to adequately tackle this new variant. what's your view on that? so we never seen effectiveness is coming down with every new variant that we, we have found. so i estimate that it will go down a little bit with

and we have a facility •-middle-dot of the university of washington that pulls together and coordinateshe data with use of the equipment with the rapid reconnaissance team and others and is able to coordinate so we are ready for the increasing importance for this quick turnaround data. >>fo a look forward to a future a swarm of drones a click super cells and then better predicted models the next question has to do with we are not making investments despite the fact they haveen huge returns i think it was mentioned 11 return to one return on investment and private markets are not making that investment. why don't the reduction justify to pay for these ahead of time is there anything government could do to prepare for the market failure? >> with the return on investment. >> yes. thank you. it is a real challenge and with those mitigation disaster programs so to do better with communication so homeowners truly understand the risk. a lot of folks think that they may not be at risk so it is personal and then across the nation but at all levels in folks for example in the reinsuranceth arena

we are still expecting, and this is what university of washington it's putting up, as your viewers willntially on the level of 1500 daily deaths, starting to take back up again, december into february, that means 10,000 weekly deaths, week over week, well into cold and flu seasons i was actually just talking to my university of colleague medicines literally a few hours ago and one of the questions is wise colorado they have 72% one dose vaccine rate sifting to 6% of colorado's are fully vaccinated, well bryan, it turns out we are of this 4% variant. we need that number to be higher. there is a little room for error, and even if you have 20% of your 18 and over population unvaccinated, that is enough to swamp hospitals. never mind, the threat of flu, never mind the threat of kid flu. there is a lot of threats out there over the next 4 to 5. months i suspect, right up at the end of the tunnel, by the end of march of 2020, two that is where we are at right now. wow. this merck anti viral. i think i speak for a lot of us when we heard there was going to be a pill for covid, hope soared. i k

>> we are forecasting at the university of washington 1,400 daily tests. 00 weekly deaths week over week well into the beginning of march. we have accepted as a country because we're not talking about lockdowns in places like michigan or elsewhere where this death toll will be concentrated amongst the unvaccinated. that's just what we have decided to accept 120,000 preventable deaths by march 1st, 2022. that's what we will expect to see. katy, that's agnostic to the stress that we worry about from flu or from other respiratory viruses. the reason we're seeing this, remaining unvaccinated is cold, dry air. since a pulmonologist, cold dry air is an ingredient for increased transmission. seasonality, remaining unvaccinated, that one-two punch is why we're seeing what we're seeing. >> what about this new covid variant that the w.h.o. is meeting to discuss, another one out of south africa? >> so, we don't know enough yet. what we know is it is not very prevalent. hopefully this is not something that then becomes dominant across the world. they're meeting as we s

there is modeling out of the university of washington that is predicting another surge. the fact is, we have tools in place to prevent these surges. we need to put mask mandates back in, focus on ventilation, encourage vaccines. you know, every family should be receiving, you know, free rapid tests in the mail, as well as high-quality n-95 masks. there's much more policy wise that could be done to blunt this next surge. >> you have continually beat the drum on that issue of equity. this past week, we saw amazing images of families reuniting, people haven't seen each other in two, three, years. but many across latin america are receiving vaccines that aren't yet approved by the world health organization, so they won't be allowed to enter the u.s. to visit their family. can you give us a sense of what level of protection these other vaccines offer? >> so, you know, here in the u.s., we have the most rigorous review process for therapeutics. through the fda's process. so really, it's hard to say with these other vaccines. their efficacy is definitely less than the mrna vacc

parts of the world are ramping up in terms of a worsening outbreak, we're expecting at the university of washingtono the winter. i'd say go ahead and get the booster as you're eligible. because it's going to benefit you. there's no harm to it. it's going to benefit high risk people vastly more than those that are lower risk. there's no reason not to get it. >> doctor, thank you very much for being with me this morning. >>> well, let's go out to las vegas. last night the protest anthem won two latin grammys. best song and best urban song. what an extraordinary night. >>. [ speaking spanish ] >> the song translates to homeland and life. it's become a rallying cry for protesters, everybody in cuba who has been demanding freedom. one of the people behind the song is in prison for singing that song. it's the first time an artist has won a grammy while under arrest for singing. a song. >>> coming up, mexico arrested the wife of a notorious drug lord. we'll talk to the head of dea operations about how important this arrest is. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. diaz-balart reports" on ms
