reporter: as you mentioned, it is a high-risk -- dr. phillip: is a high-risk businesses. that includes people -- places where people are removing asks -- masks to eat or drink but also areas where people are exerting themselves, breathing more heavily in an indoor space. gyms, recreational facilities, and the like. we have a requirement now or vaccination in any setting in which there are 1000 people or more. it used to be 5000 or more and we have decreased that. those are the primary settings where it goes into effect today. anchor: trigger investigations and contact tracing, have you noticed any transmission happening at jim's work -- or restaurants? dr. possible to ask people where they have been infected the contact tracer but cdc collates and public health colleagues do particular types of studies that are more in-depth and are able to apply that. restaurants and gyms are what has been shown internationally to be associated. anchor: i know for employees, the indoor vaccine mandate, they have more time to comply. what is the deadline? dr. phillip" into these establish

dr. gounder, do you think we need boosters? >> well, think about if you're doing a high jump. if you can clear that bar jumping, i don't know, 6, 12 feet, do you really need to be able to jump 100 feet? similarly, not everybody is going to need a third dose to clear that bar of immunity. there are certain groups of people who may, in particular immunosuppressed people, perhaps some of the elderly and particularly those over the age of 80, people living in nursing homes. >> so, are you both arguing that maybe there isn't as much of a need for a booster, at least for some, or maybe not a universal need for a booster? >> we may see data in the upcoming weeks or months that changes my view on this. but based on the data we've seen so far, do i think every american who's gotten two shots of an mrna vaccine nds a third shot by six months? no, i've seen no data that suggests that that's the case. >> we understand vaccine hesitancy iseal, and it's pervasive. dr. gounder, you advised the biden administtion. what do you think should be done to address this kd of hesitancy? >> so, there'

vaccines by saying that fully vaccinated people now have to wear masks indoors in areas of high tranission? drlensky: first of all, the most important message here is to get vaccinated, and the reason to get vaccinated is to prevent severe disease, illness, hospitalization, and death. that is what the vaccine trials were designed to show, that is what the vaccines were designed to do. it turns out that with the alpha variant, if you happen to be one of those breakthrough infections, you couldn't necessarily transmitted, euro amount of virus is low. with the delta variant, that is not the case. if you happen to be one of the breakthrough infections, your amount of virus is high. from a public health standpoint, we felt it important for people to understand this and where there masks as they might be exposing other on vaccinated people or people who are not yet eligible for vaccination, like children. laura: how concerned are you that sewhere in the world, a variant is developing which will evade our vaccines? dr. walensky: you know, that is always the scientific concern here. what i would say i

dr. fauci said, high levels in the nasal pharynx who became subsequently infected, on par with the levelho wasn't vaccinated. but nasal swabs, while it is suggestive of someone's ability to spread the virus, it doesn't prove they're able to spread the virus. so it is not a perfect correlet. you want to measure the virus in the airwaves because you spread this virus through aerosols. and we have other evidence that came out, people who are vaccinated, even if their viral titers are very high, even if they're asymptomatic, the viral titers fall manage more quickly than those unvaccinated. so after a day or two days, they are much less likely to spread the virus. so initially someone who is vaccinated may have the same level to spread the virus, on par with someone who is unvaccinatedbut eir ability to ly diminishes more quickly. therefore out in the community, if you were measuring their ability to transmit the virus, you would probably see on the whole they're less likely to be contagious. >> dickerson: one of the challenges that we've talked about before is that we weren't testing every

this morning, the cdc is expected to recommend a booster shot of people at high risk. dr. fauci: these are for people who almost certainly did not get an adequate response to properly protect them in the first place. >> fully vaccinated people do not need a booster shot at this time. the delta variant continues to spread in the u.s.. florida and texas account for 40% of the country's new hospitalizations. julian: thank you. a health service plan is people $100 when they convince someone to get vaccinated. the helping hand referral program is open to anyone ages 14 years or older. the person must not have been previously vaccinated for covid-19. they must also make an appointment using a unique website and code provided to them. they will be paid $100 total as a check or gift card after each person you help gets vaccinated. you have to register on the county's health and services website. one of the ways you are able to prove your vaccination status without having to carry around the card is with the state's digital vaccine record. we have the full breakdown guide on how to

high. how concerned should parents be here? dr.t: to address ur first estion,he presenting signs for covid in children can really vary. i have treated children as young as five weeks old and i have treated teenagers, 16, 17 and 18-year-olds. obviously there is a huge range of how those individuals -- for some children it can be abdominal pain and i have seen school-age children have -- for whom severe abdominal pain was the presenting signs and then they developed fever. many developed upper reps -- upper respiratory symptoms. congestion, cough, sore throat, low-grade fever, elevating fever a few days in. some pediatric patients do lose their sense of smell and taste as well. it is really a variety of symptoms and pents and pediatricians need to have a very low threshold right now for testing, and for getting a quality test. there are still widely circulating tests that have a high false negative rate. that is not helpful to anyone. getting tested frequently, certainly as soon as symptoms are setting in. we know there has been expo

senator kennedy -- >> in addition -- i don't mean to be disrespectful to reverend poling, i have high regard for dr. poling, i don't like to be in a debate about it. but i must say looking back, i think it was imprudent of me to sl accepted without more information, but i don't think it demonstrates unfitness to hold a public office. >> the reason for our concern is the fact that your church has stated that it has the privilege and the right and the responsibility to direct its members in various members of life, including the political realm. >> history and observation indicate that it has done so, and we raise the question because we would like to know if you are elected president and your church elects to use that privilege and obligation, what your response will be under those circumstances. >> if my church attempted to influence me in a way which was improper or which affected adversely my responsibility as a public servant, sworn to uphold the constitution, then i would reply to them that this was an improper action on their part, that it was one to which i could not subscribe, that i was opp

question was asked friday in our education town hall -- is it safe for these athletes to play high school sports again? dr. patel had a simple answer. >> it is incumbent on everyone to make sure their athletes are practicing all the safe hygiene techniques and doing everything they can not only on the field or the pool or the court, but everywhere surrounding it. >> we are still trying to let the kids know we are not out of it. >> the reason why we are playing this team is because of certain cancellations. but i definitely want the kids to have fun. >> we are doing what we can to make sure we have a season, because the last thing we want is for it to be canceled because of covid or for anybody to get sick or hurt. dustin: while there was no official winner on the scoreboard, the true victory was getting football back once again. >> illegals. -- go eagles. >> go bruins. j.r.: if you want to watch our entire education town hall, you can watch it on our connected apps. we also have a series of back-to-school stories on different topics. search abc 7 bay area to download the app. supporters in favor of the ca

also unclear when dr. abdullah, who is the head of afghanistan high council for national reconciliation, and other members of the african governments negotiating team will be arriving here at the venue. they are in the hiv spoken to members of the team. but they are not yet here at these talks which have started today. another bit of lack of clarity at this hour is what role exactly the taliban will be playing. i spoke earlier with a tyler bond spokespeople and they said it was unclear if they were going to be invited. what's interesting about that is the fact that we have seen in statements issued by the office of ambassador for odd that he and others involved in these talks intend to press the taller bond into giving up violence into signing off on some type of a ceasefire. but it's unclear exactly how that's going to happen and if the taller bond will be making an appearance at these talks, or if at some point after talks have concluded, members of the delegations here, it will be speaking with them one on one. so there's really a lot at stake at this critical juncture in afghanistan

we do not know from our quote, unquote experts, high priests it's only proclamation only certainty and that certainly is driving us in one direction. dr. harvey risch i encourage anyone to check him out read his research and studies. i appreciate you, with me tonight. >> a pleasure.

one, as everybody across the country, 90% of the areas where the cdc says you have high or substantial transmission, drfauci says booster shots, maybe. listen. >> we are assuming that sooner or later we're going to have to give boosters. i would hope that the degree of elevation of response that we will see with the boost might actually give us a lot of wiggle room of not necessarily needing a boost often. but as you say, we are humble, and we are modest about it. we don't know the answer to that. >> when will wite know the answ to that? how long does it take, how big of a sample, and how much of a calendar to know are we going to need a third shot, are we good or are we going to need an annual shot. >> about 165 million americans have been vaccinated, and whether it's the first variant that came into the country, the d 614 g variant or alpha and now delta, and soon to be seeing the lambda variant, it keeps you out of the hospital, and protects you against severe critical disease. that hasn't changed. all the months the vaccine has been out there, that hasn't changed. when that begins to change, when i

dr. de la de la. he's the head of the high reconciliation council in afghanistan, and the fact that there is so much confusion as to what exactly is happening. the fact that even members of some of these delegation aren't quite sure what is going to happen to me are really shows you that the key arctic nature of what's going on right now. last week, we covered 3 days of afghan peace talks here in durham. the diplomats who were all here, a lot of the special envoy for afghan stan, they all wanted to see a way to put the inter african piece process back on track the last time there was a meeting of the inter african piece dialogue was mid july. this is a process that was initiated here in doha last september and it really ran out of momentum. and one of the reasons it ran out of momentum was because people didn't have leverage over the telephone because the taliban was already starting to gain ground even in mid july. so last week you had 3 days of talks really what the diplomats wanted was to be able to come up with some kind of joint statement which they offered a pathway forward to try to get the inter afric

dr. pekosz: it is focusing on the positive. the highn right is with the general population really needs to know. scientists such as myself, myriad scientists across the country are interested in the breakthroughs because that may tell us something about how to make a better vaccine and protect people better. the general population needs the focus of the fact that vaccines are working. the vast majority of cases in hospitals that are being diagnosed right now are in unvaccinated people. that tells us the vaccine is working. that is the twist on this we have to talk about. lisa: i hear that and everybody says that. as the mother of a child not eligible at this point, if i get infected and i can transmit the virus, even though i am vaccinated, it becomes a problem. what you say to people concerned about how that goes along and they cannot live life in a normal way until the delta variant is more under control? how do you communicate that will saying vaccinations work? dr. pekosz: it is the surge of virus infections that is causing some of

there are some rumors out there that perhaps dr. de la de la, who is the head of the high council for reconciliation. i've counted and may be a part of that team that's unclear yet. the fact that you have a negotiating team coming from afghanistan here to do a half after these talks that didn't lead to much last week. that really goes to show how critical the situation is. i've also just found out that us special envoys all my little sod has remained indoor ha, since the conclusion of these 3 days of international african piece talks last week, that also goes to show there's been a lot of behind the scenes activity to try to get the inter afghan piece effort back on track. the fact that matter is last week when these 3 days of talks were happening here in doha, you had a lot of diplomats that were loathed to speak on camera to speak on the record because it was a very delicate and difficult diplomacy that was going on and because a lot of the countries were far apart when it came to some kind of an agreement on how to try to get reconciliation back on track and canister. and so what t

this was issued in the name of dr. de la de la, who is the head of the high council for national reconciliation in afghanistan. and that statement had said that the afghan government delegation had presented plan that they, that they said would solve the crisis in afghanistan to the diplomats here, as well as to the extent the troika countries that's comprised of the us, russia, china, and pakistan in which they said that they did seek to continue negotiations and that they thought having a mediator in those negotiations for inter ap can talks would be a good idea whether or not there will be another session of inter afghan piece dialogue or talks that's still very much an open question right now, the last meeting of interact can peace talks was held in doha, in mid july. that ended with very little momentum for the process to go on. at the moment. there was very little momentum for it as well because of all the gains that the taliban has made an afghanistan, at least for the past several days. and that's really one of the big concerns of the diplomats that have been here is how exactly will th

high. so, get vaccinated and use those masks indoors as dr. custer said. >> and, dr. custer, real quickly, there in maryland, have you seen an uptick in vaccination? i know 60% of the population is vaccinated. but that still 40% that needs to get vaccinated. any uptick? >> absolutely. i do agree with you that full fda approval should help lessen the vaccination front. all the eligible people in maryland, i think is greater than 70%. but remember that if it's less if you're less than 12, you're not eligible for oxidation at this time. we're working very hard to get approval for a vaccine in that anger population. so, it is incumbent on all of us as adults and those of us who have children greater than 12 to get out there get vaccinated. that is what we can do to help the most vulnerable and that younger population. so hopefully this news to get people out and get vaccinated is very available. the science is is extremely safe. and this is a very serious virus. and downplaying the seriousness of the virus could be a mistake. so we want to make sure that we use all of our

dr. fauci warns that cases are way too high right now and they're going to get worse but he did have a spotf good news. >> i don't think we're going to see lockdowns. i think we have enough of the percentage of people in the country, not enough to crush the outbreak, but i believe enough to not a allow us to get into the situation we were in last winter. >> reporter: the rate of vaccinations is going up. the white house reported that since the week of july 5th there has been a steady increase but not fast enough for federal officials. here are the stats. 164 million people in the u.s. are fully vaccinated, almost 50% of the total population. but the country is seeing more than 72,000 new cases a day which is a jump of 44% compared to the previous week. because of that, masks are making a come bask in parts of the country, even for those who are vaccinated, with government officials citing breakthrough cases from the delta variant. the director of the cdc clarified over the weekend there will not be a nationwide vaccine mandate. a eight states plus d.c. and puerto rico have already imposed s

travel to a state with high hospitalization rates right now? going ask dr. kavita patel those questions. >>> katie hobbs will join us to talk about her plan to debunk the bizarre so-called audit report expected any day now. >>> martin luther king iii and the grandson of cesar chavez have in common next weekend. like many people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or crohn's disease, i was there. be right back. but my symptoms were keeping me from where i needed to be. so i talked to my doctor and learned humira is the #1 prescribed biologic for people with uc or crohn's disease. and humira helps people achieve remission that can last, so you can experience few or no symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight infections. serious and sometimes fatal infections, including tuberculosis, and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened, as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common and if you've had tb

dr. anthony fauci tells cnn the white house had high hopes the country would be back to normal by july 4. the delta variant was "a sucker punch to hopes," which he now believes spring of 2022 could be when things get back to normal. >> if we keep lingering without getting those people vaccinated that should be vaccinated, this thing could linger on, leading to the development of another variant which can complicate things. it is within our power to get this under control. that is to get vaccinated. jobina: as children head back to the classroom, dr. rochelle walensky says more data is needed before kids under 12 can get the shot. that may be by november. many americans dying a covid. the average number of daily deaths is more than 700. reggie: thank you. more bay area cities considering vaccine mandates now that the fda approved the pfizer vaccine. san jose city council members are set to vote on a measure that would require people to show proof of vaccination at city facilities. amy hollyfield joins us live the sap center in san jose. amy: good morning. the mayor is putting pressure on t

dr. meissner, why don't you agree with him if you hold him in high regard? well, i think the -- what you will find, as we go through our discussion right now, is that there's not a great deal of difference between d dr. benjamin's position and my position. i think that we don't know if masks make a difference in transmission. and particularly, in a school room setting. i think adults who are foolish enough not to be vaccinated, they should wear a mask. but for children in school, we always have to think about the disadvantages of any sort of intervention. and what are the advantages. and, for example, the paper that dr. benjamin published which was wonderful, it's the sort of study that we need. but i think he will acknowledge, there was no control group. and dr. fauci has made very clear these days that we cannot make decisions based on uncontrolled clinical trials. he compared his data with data from a school in israel that did not mask. and we don't know anything, i don't know what grades those children were in, in the israel school. i don't know what sor

dr. jonathan reiner describe the search. >> it is so high in florida that i think if florida or another countrye would have to consider banning travel from florida to the united states. he needs to understand that he has painted himself into a corner. people are dying in florida. it is going to get much worse. >> harry, the doctor set it up asking the question, if florida or louisiana were foreign countries, what we been travel? >> i mean this is bad. florida, louisiana, look at this. worst of the entire pandemic in both louisiana and florida. look at that per 100,000. up to 100 per day. look at this, hospitalizations. same deal, look at this. worst of the entire pandemic in both louisiana and florida. the only difference is louisiana , florida is worse than the other. but anyway you look at it is bad. compared to other countries look at this. these are countries. the united kingdom, france, greece. a sickly have to wait 14 days after you've been in the country. essentially a travel ban. covid cases per 100,000, louisiana +99. florida +90. united kingdom, only +40. still really high but not nea

approval, even though the data are overwhelming right now that these vaccines are high ly effective and are safe. >> joining me now dr wen. is dr. fauci right, in your view, among at least a decent slice of the vaccine hesitant we hearing this is no longer emergency use authorization but a formal full good housekeeping stamp of approval, would that make a difference? >> i definitely agree having full fda approval will make a big difference. there are some people who don't really understand emergency use authorization. there's this incorrect narrative out there that somehow this is a, kyquote, experimental drug, which is not true. this vaccine has been tested in tens of thousands of people and now there are hundreds of millions of people around the world who have received this. i think some people would fieel better knowing this is fully approved. also there are lots of employers waiting for full approval before mandating the vaccine for employees. i really don't understand what's taking the fda so long. what could possibly be more important than getting approval of the vaccines? what other priority in the fda is more

i think that's so key and it is as you said a high-stake for the people involved. laura and dr.something else. thankfully it is not bigger news because it did not get out of hand. we want to explain the threat and where the language is coming from. that's after a break. also tonight, stay with us, new details in gaetz's sex crimes probe. before we are done of the hour, i got big news. we'll talk about everything from ufo and politic, david duchovny is here. duchovny is here. because it's not just for kids. people with moderate to severe psoriasis, are rethinking the choices they make like the splash they create the entrance they make, the surprises they initiate. otezla. it's a choice you can make. otezla is not a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable. don't use if you're allergic to otezla. it may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. otezla is associated with an increased risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts or if these feelings develop. some people

dr. aileen marty: the biggest fear is a variant of high consequence, which would be a variant worse than variant, that would actually be able to overcome our current vaccines and our current remedies. karina: but there is one positive coming out of this rise in infections. all 50 states are reporting more residents are rolling up their sleeves and getting that first dose of vaccine. in new york, karina mitchell, abc news. julian: the sturgis motorcycle rally is roaring on in south dakota, despite concerns about the delta variant. the 10 day event kicked off in grand fashion with separate featuring the budweiser clydesdales. at least 700,000 people are expected to attend. there is no mask mandate, no proof of vaccination required. many in attendance say they are not worried about it. >> i've vented daytona bike week , oktoberfest, been here and been to a bunch of other rallies. i do not worry much about -- what happens happens. julian: in south dakota, covid cases spiked nearly 70% in the days before the rally started grade about 46% of adults who live in the county that t rally are fully

dr. hotez, we learned yesterday, florida had an all time high for the pandemic.t does that mean for the country and could we surpass the winter surge? it's stunning. >> yeah, no, this is starting to look really ominous in the south where i am. now if you look at rates of transmission in florida and louisiana, they're actually probably the highest in the world. we're running neck and neck with botswana with the rate of transmission. there is a screaming level of transmission across the southern states right now and now we're starting to see this happening among younger age groups. so medium age and some of the hospitals here in the south, there is people in their 30s. we're seeing a lot of pediatriced a missions and icu admissions, the scary part is all of this is happening before schools open. schools are just opening now. i worry that will be an accelerant. and the problem is a lot of the executive leaders of these red states, southern states, are not going to replace policies to protect the kids. they've not mandated masks or vaccines, i don't see how it will g
