we will print off anything and as you want us know, dr. okay, mentally. so. okay. okay. hello. see, even though the, the, the tools required for the surgery, sam, like though the handyman would use only schools. knox board said they mentally very big. and you, you bleary and the power to see this is a to be a board. right? we put a name from here, right on that external device. you can see the last name we drilled into the tibia bone and fix the frames that hold everything in place after the bones broken. after the operation, the rods holding these frames known as distractors, then expanded each day as the bones regenerate to fill the gap. the patient is expected to gain between $7.14 centimeters highs. when you're lengthening born and the more lens very easily, the muscle that hard all research has been done, you can lengthen the muscles by 12 to 15 percent of your original length of your leg. ah, the surgery was developed and decided to treat injured soldiers returning from the 2nd world war. the procedure was not designed for cosmetic purposes and some orthopedic surgeons th

dr. okay, got that. so this is central station number and it looks like there is absolutely nothing. this is pretty di and i believe we talked about lender. you guys have your own supplies somewhere. okay. do you know of any places where there might be patch? oh, that was a policeman who just called me the bp petrol station. about 10 minutes drive from here. had a delivery this morning, but apparently it was mental that and where we're going to go now in order to give it a guy. oh my god like it's rammed because they've got, it must be there. so this is patrick station number 3, and look at the kids. i miss today's of was already monday, tuesday. i'm just trying to work with tomorrow that i know to people here. that's been enough that your talk to terry kendall to it's actually crazy. the amount of people that don't feel, i don't think that that there will be no, this is basically blocking of traffic that access to the central station is blocking off traffic. people actually getting around the round abou

. >> okay. dr. fauci, thank you for joining us.ry about some of the technical cliches you saw, but we heard you loud and clear. thank you. >> doctor: no problem. thank you. >> we turn to the devastation left in the wake of hurricane ida. ida's path measured more than a thousand miles from where it made landfall in louisiana to the northeast, bringing torrential rain and spawning tornadoes in at least six states. at least 65 people are dead. in new jersey alone, 27 people were killed, largely due to flooding. the state's governor, phil murphy, joins us from mill town. thank you for making time for us. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> i want to get the latest on the recovery from hurricane ida, but i want to start with a quick question on covid since children are returning back to school in your state this week. the largest newspaper in your state published a op-ed criticizing your decision not to require school staff to show proof of vaccination or submit to any testing until october 18th. given how transmissible the delta

dr. gottlieb, okay, if i am vaccinated, can i really go back to normal life?king about, about it being endemic, plays into that. but a real big part of what plays into that from what i hear is people wanting to know if the vaccine protects them from long covid, right? am i going to have permanent heart issues? is it going to shorten my life span? am i going to have nervous system issues? brain shrinkage, right? all these fears people have. my friend, piers morgan, tweeted yesterday. has anyone had long covid symptoms for ten weeks or more and then fully recovered? if so, what did you do to get over it? it's getting very irritating. i say this because he's fully vaccinated, got covid as you may be aware and has ended up with this long covid despite being fully vaccinated. this is what people are afraid of. there is a study out of the uk that shows that being fully vaccinated reduces, by half, the odds of getting long covid. it's just one study, though. where are you on this, dr. gottlieb? >> well, look, it's an unclear question right now. there is a number of s

okay. that's good to know because a lot of people had that question, whether they can go pfizer first and moderna second. you're saying, dr. schaffner, that's okay? >> that's okay. we've been saying that all along. >> okay. and i do want to ask you about children because a new cdc report found more children were hospitalized with covid-19 in states that had lower vaccination rates. i know we keep hammering this but how crucial is it to have this community-wide vaccination when it comes to protecting our kids? >> jim, protecting children, young children, younger than 12 years of age, depends on everybody else being vaccinated. so the better vaccinated your entire community is, obviously the safer the schools and the children in them will be. we want to get everyone in the schools, obviously older than 12, vaccinated. and if you attend school, despite all the controversies, masking is, continues to be, very important. >> absolutely. and one of the really unfortunate trends lately has to do with fake vaccine cards. i can't believe people do this but of course they're going to do it. i don't know if you saw this but fox's tuc

okay, dr. joe, just like you had the backs of everyone you abandoned in afghanistan? 26 days, americans held hostage behind enemy lines. take a look. >> any teacher or school official who does the right thing, we will have that pay restored by the federal government 100%. i promise you, i will have your back. >> americans understand we are going to try to get it done by august 1st. >> but if you don't? >> if we don't we will try to determine who is left. >> and? >> and if there are american citizens left we are going to stay there and get them all out. >> sean: we will stay until we get them all out. to live. i promise you i have your back. do you trust to that guy? two weeks before you abandoned them. just to recap, biden once promised to shut down the virus before he was sworn in. three vaccines, regeneron, monochrome real antibody treatments that he just mentioned today for the first time, like regeneron. nearly a year since president trump had that very therapeutic. he didn't mention it once until today. he dropped the ball, they made covid political, they belittl

. >> okay, dr. wen and dr. leafy, thank you both very much. >>> well president biden will travel to new york in the next few hours for his first u.n. general assembly as president. foreign policy shift. but this trip comes at a pivotal and periles moment for his economic agenda. nancy pelosi is facing a divided party and i looming deadline to move the president's agenda forward. both the house and the senate are back in session today. >> so president biden's big $3.5 trillion budget bill and that $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill face critical tests this week. cnn's ryan nobles is on capitol hill and phil mattingly is at the white house. so phil, the president, as we know, has faced a series of unexpected setbacks. >> what is the white house's plan to recapture some momentum? >> reporter: i think to try to separate the month of august for what is at stake right now and i think the moments that democrats are in right now, the reality is that negotiations over specific policy matters are indeed feveris

. >> sean: okay. dr. humpty. the epitome of health.eople on tv, are they really that stupid, low rated as they are? do your own research does not mean you need to get in your own virology lab and do your research on covid and the genomes and the breakdown of the sequence of a virus. that is not what we are talking about. of course, i've been telling people over and over again take this virus seriously. i have seen the worst of this virus. talk to a medical professional. your doctor, your doctors. i'm like a broken record. why? i know i don't have this question in front of me but for all of you there that have given this camera to me. i went every american, regardless of politics, to be healthy. take it seriously. we have seen what has happened here. here's a quick refresher of what i have said in full context. actions underway all over the country. this pandemic is a serious crisis. but i am not a doctor either and i'm not going to play one on tv and tell you what you should do. that would be your individual choice. be smart, protect t

dr. paul offit at children's hospital of philadelphia. he's also a member of the fda vaccine advisory committee and also joining us cnn early start co-anchor and correspondent laura jarrett. okaydr. offit. just overall, when you heard these six pillars, what did you think of them? >> well, in a better world you wouldn't need vaccine mandates. everyone would look at the data, see that vaccines clearly keep you out of the hospital, keep you from dying and we would all get a vaccine. we don't live in that world. we live in a world where there is a significant percentage of the population either due to willful ignorance or incredible selfish say it's my right to catch and transmit a potentially fatal disease to others. this was an important first step and you could see how frustrated president biden is, here, we did the hard part, we created the vaccine, it's free, it's available, it will save your life and still people choose not to get it. we can end this pandemic easily if we just get to 85 to 90% of the population vaccinated but we choose not to do that. painful. >> you say it's a good first step, dr. offit. some are saying these are serious new measure. only a first step, wha

dr. scott atlas is back. he joins us next. >> laura: first the administration said you need a booster shot eight months after getting the covid seen. and then six. biden said it was five. okay. now according to dr. fauci, it's back up to eight. confused yet? we have to trust the experts even though they can't get their numbers straight. on top of that, two fda officials are reportedly stepping down over the rushed booster edict or policy. trace gallagher has the details for us tonight. >> laura, the big headline is the biden administration is pushing forward with booster shots before the top scientists weigh-in. while the white house says they like to follow the science, instead they're exercising political pressure. now two of the top vaccine regulators are resigning, this could lead to a bigger mutiny. staff members feel like they have been cut out of key decisions and the plan to offer shots is premature and unnecessary. yet the administration has september a september 20 deadline to beginning most adults booster shots. remember, pfizer just completed its booster shot application to the fda five days ago. its anybody's guess when pfizer will get approval and we also don'

dr. fauci's goal. >> okay. thank you for setting the stage for the president's remarks tonight. now to the white house and cnn chief white house correspondent kai kaitlyn collins there for us. what is in this six pillar plan, and how is the president preparing for this critical speech? >> he had a long briefing with his team yesterday ahead of this. and now, of course, the biggest thing you'll see president biden do today is he's set to sign an executive order requiring that all federal employees be vaccinated. with no option to take regular covid-19 testing instead. so this takes things a step further than what he announced in previous months that federal employees had the option of ear saying they were vaccinated or getting tested and wearing a mask. now all federal employees will have to be vaccinated. that applies to federal contractors as well. and today he'll also talk about booster shots. of course, there's been a lot of confusion over when they'll come into effect. keeping schools open, talking about increasing testing and mask wearing. and part of that we're told by sou

dr. williams? [laughter] okay. >> arthel, always good to be with you. arthel: likewise.u. so, listen, the majority of nba players, as we said, were vaccinated. i spoke to you earlier to get some background. you were explaining to me that the majority of the players, i'm not sure how many, but the majority of the basketball players were vaccinated by the end of the season that ended last july. the nfl now opens its season 94%, 93.5% of the players vaccinated, 98% of the staff and coaches. so is this the new standard in sport, and is sports leading the way for other businesses? >> well, i mean, they got through the season last year, obviously, with a lot of questions about transmissibility and such. and basically, what we're observing in all the sports leagues a lot more strident policy in and around vaccination. let's just face it, it's good business. if an unvaccinated player goes under covid protocol in the nfl, that is a severe blow to the team in a team sport which is so reliant on their players being available. so you can imagine being out for, you know, upwards of 1

dr. consultant optician. that's probably why. okay. matt drew it when harold was answering his last question before i went to the break you what you raise your hand one to jump in, please do right now. go ahead man. yeah. so 1st of all quote, i think he actually did not say titian. it was more more so, but i think one of the things that he's the legacy of magical in a negative sense comes back to the wrong profile. important. you made the wrong peter about the difference between policy and politics of policy is about what works. politics, according to the famous german definition, is fear way between grand and enemy and in politics where he's not too many friends . enemies shouldn't be fighting, but you need an element of that sort of hash june of emotion. and i think the put of metal has had, is that she's been very good and policy making very good at government by spreadsheet. but sometimes you need a little bit more, especially when you feel that you're to might be and i agree with us. so by the way, you know, the division of politi

dr. fauci at one point said it is 70 to5%. okay. reaction from fox news contributor and johns hop skin university professor of public health. he is dr. marty makary. great to have you back on. where do you come down on this? >> well look, if the goal is toe improve safety in the hospital you would simply require immunization regard let's if it is through vaccinated or natural immunity and what we're seeing right now is this blind political support for an indiscriminate vaccine policy with this unachievable goal of getting 100% of the public vaccinated and, look in health care settings we're used to immunity requirements but in the general population we don't even get 90 plus percent of people, children vaccinated with the mandatory polio and mmr vaccines. so it us unrealistic to think we'll get to 98%. it is never going to happen. elizabeth: doctor, there is so much concern about the white house messaging on this, right? dr. fauci, you remember you and i talked about this, dr. fauci admitted he himself moved the goalposts on herd imm

dr. gottlieb says the fda will okay the pfizer shot for young kids in the coming days.lthy children don't need to be vaccinated. so what do you say, should all children be vaccinated? >> i think this is a choice parents and pediatricians will need to make. i certainly would consider parents vaccinating kids. this is a dangerous pathogen, it's dangerous for kids. i think people track the number of kids who have died of the virus and they say the amount isn't more than what we see in a typical flu season. we see lingering effects of this virus in kids and neurological effects as well. so i think we don't understand this virus, and i certainly would want to see children protected through vaccination and not have to go through a course of illness with this coronavirus. >> your new book i'm going to talk about, it's called "uncontrolled spread: why covid-19 crushed us and what we can learn from this pandemic." are we better prepared to learn from the next pandemic? >> i don't think we're prepared from a structural standpoint. i think we're prepared as far as what our weaknes

the folks who are against public health measures to mitigate the virus and okay with innocent people dying unnecessarily. >> drthe show for the last 19 months, we had doctors of color, particularly black doctors. many black people in the country come with historically valid concerns of vaccinations and medications mandated by the government. we got a bad history of that in this country. you think this is a little bit of a manipulation of that. the idea that ron desantis has found a black man, well educated black doctor, who spreads misinformation? >> correct. this is nothing new, right? you always have one person in a bunch who you can use and manipulate to the detriment of everyone else. throughout the history and throughout society, there is always that one guy who represents himself as the oppress the marginalize the community. there is always one suppressing that community. if you are a student of history, we know. i'm not saying this goes that deep, but what dr. ladapo is doing is detrimental to the health of the public, but health of african-americans who have been historically and come temporaily wronge

okay. thank you for joining us. >>> and dr. morgan is cardiovascular and a director of the teed mont covid task forceful she is here to answer our covid questions. thank you for coming. on you just heard that georgia professor risking his job by requesting mask mandates for in-class teaching. i want to get your reaction tom. >> so one of the things that we know with science is that masks are safe and benwe know that vaccines are protecting people not just from covid but this particular delta variant, a new version of the original virus. and i think that's without argument. so we want to continue to support science, continue to nernlg vaccinations so we can reach herd immunity and take care of everyone, especially our children who cannot yet be vaccinated. >> and i want to ask you as we look across the country, so many doctors and nurses have told us, they're suffering from burnout. i just talked to a doctor earlier on the show. what problems do we risk if we lose medical staff due to covid fatigue? >> this is a concern. not onl

dr. delbanco, are you there? >> i'm here. >> okay. i wanted to get your take on how your efforts are either conjoined with or parallel with the pharmacy pricing. is there some connection of work of your organization, with others? or are you taking that on as an independent effort? where are we on that? >> yes, so we are not taking that on in a large way. we're small. we have six or seven staff members right now. so we choose to focus. we did just recently release an online course that i'm happy to make available to anyone interested that helps to educate about how the whole pharmacy system works. and, you know, from -- it's sort of a master class-style course where experts are providing lectures about different aspects of the drug industry and how the whole pharmacy system works. but beyond that, we just have, you know, to sort of drawn a line around what we can take on so i would say that the issues in the pharmacy space are very parallel. you know, the lack of transparency, and many cases the lack of competition, you know, as a resu

okay. thank you for that. jessica? >> thank you, dr. colfax. another question i have is regarding testing. we're starting to see a lot more people getting tested for covid-19. is the city going to ramp up testing again, especially that the mass testing sites have been closed? >> yes. so we ramped up testing dramatically in both at our al -- alemany sites and [inaudible] and at this point, that increase in demand has not decreased in supply. we are working with our partners and across our health care system partners, kaiser, ucsf, sutter, and so forth, to expand testing. people who have health care providers are experiencing some delays both in getting some appointments and some delays in getting test results back, so we're working to mitigate that as much as possible. we're also working to access home test kits, which we haven't had in prior times, to help people get rapidly tested. but we acknowledge that testing demand is increasing and, again, are working hard to expand testing options, testing hours for people so that people can get tested
