dr. bright and dr. schuchat, through stockpile procurement or other means, how do we ensure we have sufficient -- for ic capacity in influenza and other infectious disease sns dr. bright: we worked through a number of manufacturers to develop diagnostics for influenza, not only laboratory-based but standardize and update the point of care diagnostics for influenza to make sure those are available and in the marketplace for year for pandemic and seasonal influenza detection. dr. schuchat: i would say c.d.c. both asa's and develops recommendations. there were point of care tests for influenza detection and some of them didn't perform as well in the field as we had hoped so we did quite an effort of validation, comparison, shared the data with f.d.a. and new labeling and improvements in the tests followed from that. so we will develop tests against pandemic or avian flu and other high-threat concerns, develop them through to emergency use authorization -k when opriate, 501 possible. it is very labor intens

dr.tin luther king jr. used so often in the civil rights movement. here was a photographer here who wanted to capture dr. king's emotions, as he watched on television president johnson exit ining to -- committing to signing the voting rights act. this is the chair that dr. king was sitting in that night, watching that television. president johnson addressed the ation. uncle martin, as i knew him, the world knew him as dr. martin luther king jr., first started coming to this house in the late 1950's, early 1960's. as a young minister, that's when he met my parents. he was ministering in montgomery, his first church, dexter. and he would come to selma and to selma university, which is directly across the street from the house, to participate in classes and to give lectures at selma university. so he would come and spend the night here in the early years. during that time you probably had a 30% african-american population. 70% caucasian population here. and there was some racial tension here

dr. pitcaithley -- he is kind of a rock star for us. teaches attired, he new mexico state university, teaches about history and civil war history and he had a book that came out this week, "the u.s. constitution and secession ." it is my distinct pleasure and honor to introduce you to dr. pitcaithley. dr. pitcaithley: he promised he was not going to include the rockstar part. best laid plans. thank you for coming tonight. thanks to nick that wonderful introduction and thanks to the site -- to the grant site for hosting this event. i'm going to talk about 25 or 30 alternative then over to you, so you can talk about whatever you want to talk about, and we hope that during my time, i have been provocative enough that we can have a conversation that goes on for another 35 or 40 minutes. robert jim moran, who many of you know, three-time loser prizewinner, wrote that the felt war is our only history, history lived in the national imagination, and i think that is true, whether your ancestry goe

dr. bright and dr. schuchat, either through stockpile procurement or through other means how do your agencies insure we have sufficient diagnostic test capacity to identify cases of pandemic influenza or other infectious diseases? >> terms of development we worked with a number of different manufacturers next few years to develop diagnostics for influenza not only laboratory diagnostics but update point of care diagnostics for influenza so that those are available in the marketplace for pandemic and seasonal influenza detection. >> i would say that cdc both develops assays and helps with validation. a number of years ago there were quite a few point of care tests for influenza detection and some of them didn't perform as well in the field as we had hoped. so we did quite an effort of validation, comparison, shared data with fda and new labeling and improvement in the tests followed from that. so we will develop tests against pandemic or avian flu and other high-threat concerns, develop them through to e

so i think dr. navarro's plan today is to go over the contents of the report that is unknown to the chinese people. so we have media reach into china. , it will continue the notion that china really owes an answer to these concerns that have been so carefully documented in this report. and, by the way, it has an annex. this report has only 160 footnotes. the annex has even more and has a very detailed account of these chinese industrial policies. frankly, the term economic aggression in the title i personally believe this is quite justified. once you read the whole report, you will see that economic aggression is correct and it's not introduced here for the first time. it was in president trump's national security strategy when that was issued. so i hope you all will join me in a warm round of applause for dr. peter navarro. and i should say the sales of his three books have gone up, and a really wonderful development is his film, which is on youtube online, in the next day or two, it's going to rea

dr. sieve ack: thank you for that question. n.i.j. is working with the office of violence against women on a number of things. in particular, the development of an online virtual training for medical forensic examiners for them to learn the skills and the processes that are recommended as best practice in this report. we're working with the bureau of justice assistance, in particular with their technical assistance and training provider. that's been involved with the sexual assault kit program to both publicize this report and develop materials that will helpes implement the recommendations in this report as well. on top of all that, our center of excellence in forensics is developing materials as well for training and information about specific -- some of the specific recommendations within this report. so outreach is extremely important. training is extremely important. and getting the information out is extremely important. senator grassley: what has been the reaction from state and/or

dr. li's example with her mom in th iu, talking about how much the nurses do. how do you train for those jobs if it's moving as fast as you think it is? >> yeah. and so, you know, one thing i think is also very important is that i don't think that we have much ability to change the time line to this technology. i think there are a lot of stakeholders, a lot of different pieces of the ecosystem. and what we do is step back and look at the trends and say what's going to be possible when. and so i think that the question of how to train, again, that's going to be something we're not thnly ones that are going to have to help answer that question. but i think that the place to start, it really comes back to measurement. if we don't know what's coming, if we can't project well, then we're going to be taken by surprise. and so, you know, i think that there are going to be lots of jobs and already have been created jobs that are surprising in terms of you think about with autonomous vehicles, we

dr. king, the celebrity of dr. king and the i have a dream speech. maybe there will be some mention of the complex of the march on washington, the labor unions and the labor activists who made it possible and did all of the organizing. maybe we will hear about the full name of the march on washington which was the march on washington for jobs and freedom, and maybe we will even hear about the kennedy administration's horror about this march. they didn't want this to happen. they were concerned that it would lead to violence to the extent that president kennedy shut down the government other than for the essential personnel the day that this occurred in 1963. but, i am pretty certain that the commemoration is mostly going to focus on dr. king and i have a dream. and i know that -- we all know this and most of us can recite parts of it and chunks of it especially towards the end. it's a great speech. it's optimistic, hopeful, it is king at his best when it comes to the delivery and the styl
