cnn's tom foreman joins me now with all the details.om, it is hard for people to keep up with all the new guidance and protocols, so take us through the latest. >> so many people are just exhausted by this, alisyn. we've been through two years of this now and much of the goal right now seems to be to meet this new wave sweeping through the country and yet somehow keep the country working. the new cdc recommendation is simple enough. if you test positive for covid but show no symptoms, you can isolate for five days instead of the previous ten. then go about your business wearing a mask for five more. but the reason for the change is complicated, and health experts say, not purely medical. >> we want to get people back to the jobs, particularly those with essential jobs, to keep our society running smoothly. >> if you are an hourly wage worker and you feel reasonably fine, maybe you have mild symptoms, you're much less likely to get tested if you know that a positive result will mean ten days of not being able to work, of being isolated.

tom foreman has our lead story, reporting in from washington. >> reporter: nationwide, hospitalizations of children with covid are up, on average, nearly 50% in just one week. new york city is seeing pediatric admissions jump to five-times what they were. in washington, d.c., half the kids coming to children's national hospital are testing positive. all told, an average of more than 300 children are being hospitalized each day. that's not because current variants are uniquely targeting them but because -- >> we see children that are hospitalized because of covid, or icu because of covid, they're unvaccinated. they're unvaccinated, the parents are unvaccinated, the siblings are unvaccinated. >> reporter: others fear the return to school next week could be even worse. >> i think what we're going to see is once children go back to school, within a week or two of schools opening, is when we see the highest numbers. >> reporter: amid the winter weather, the pandemic is roaring across the country, with 250,000 new cases diagnosed daily, that's a record. >> this variant is a game-changer in te

tom foreman, cnn, washington. >>> the omicron variant of coronavirus is now found in at least a dozensstates just days after the first case was identified in california. it's already been detected in nearly 40 countries but experts insist there's no reason to panic. the world health organization says no deaths have been reported from it. and so far, most cases have been mild. but it is taking a toll. have a look in south africa, where omicron was first found, covid cases have quadrupled since tuesday and a surprising number are small children. >>> countries in europe are enforcing additional restrictions as cases climb and the omicron variant is discovered across the continent, i'm joined by cnn contributor barbie nadeau in rome. barbie, w.h.o. officials are speculating how omicron might become the dominant variant but most of the cases there have been relatively mild. what's the latest? >> europe is in the midst of the variant, but it's not omicron, it's delta. and in germany, they're predistincting 6,000 people in intensive care wards by christmas. no matter what they do. here in rom

i'm tom foreman. welcome, and congratulations. we all survived a tough 12 months packed with upheavals, conflicts, difficulties, and yet also victories, hope, and happiness. that's saying something considering we were up against a raging pandemic and the deepest social divides the united states has seen in decades. so how did we make it through? let's sort that out by starting with the biggest news. >> that sounded like gunshots. >> run, run! >> worst story of the year, the violent invasion of the u.s. capitol by people angry over joe biden winning the last presidential election. >> the idea that 2021 was going to be better, i think, probably lasted for about exactly six days. >> the january 6th insurrection was straight up crazy. >> the losing candidate, then president donald trump stoked the fury with the big lie that he had won. >> they rigged an election. they rigged it like they had never rigged an election before. >> it was really traumatizing and tragic to see the people's house overtaken by american citizens. >> police wer

tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> dr. rodriguez is a board certified viral researcher. good to see you. >> thank you, john. >> let's start with covid and kids. in the united states, the secretary for health and human services said a record number of children are being infected and being treated in hospital. here he is. >> we thought our kids were safe because they didn't seem to be catching the infection the same way. today, i think you're hearing the news, more and more of our children are not only contracting covid, but they're being hospitalized. this stuff is real. >> so is it real enough now to authorize booster shots for kids 5 and older, as well as those 12 to 15? >> absolutely it is. i think we need to stop differentiating between older humans and younger humans. the virus dozen differentiate. it goes after humans. so anybody that has the right dna for the virus to attack will be attacked. therefore, everybody in the world, as far as i'm concerned, should eventually be vaccinated. we're just waiting to make sure that the vaccines are safe. but in essence, my ans

tom foreman has the day's other headlines from washington. >> reporter: schools in d.c.quire all students and staff to have negative covid tests to come back to class. new york city will require rigorous testing, too. all that as the white house says it expects to sign a contract for 500 billion at-home covid tests next week. >> it really had a lot to do with what we thought people would be able to tolerate. >> reporter: the recommendation of five instead of ten isolation days for those testing positive with no symptoms, then five days of masking is aimed at keeping people working. >> there is no data that i'm aware of with the omicron variant that supports people coming out of isolation five days after they were first diagnosed with the virus. >> reporter: nothing in the guidelines mandates testing for these people, and the administration has been harshly criticized for the current shortage of tests. so the lack of testing and the new recommendations is drawing fire, even as top health officials push back. >> we don't know how our rapid tests perform and whether they pr

tom foreman, thank you. >>> here to discuss those headlines laid out by tom is dr.er hotez, dean of school of tropical medicine at baylor college of medicine. he has on a lovely bow tie today. dr. hotez, i want to start with you on today, what it means for so many people because we're just a few hours from ringing in the nuyew year. for people watching at home and are hesitant about their plans tonight, what do you recommend they do? >> well, a couple of things. first of all, this omicron variant is so transmissible, it's like nothing we've seen before. among covid variants. almost as transmissible as measles which is probably the most common highly transmissible infectious agent that we know. so the message is, if you don't want to get covid, keep your gather,s really small. surround yourself with vaccinated people. this is not the year for big new year's parties. i know it's disappointing, but that's the reality. and the hope, as dr. fauci said, this won't last too long. it's a matter of keeping it all together for the next month. and this is going to be the very

our top foreman is tracking all of it for us on this new year's eve. the numbers are growing larger by the day and the hour. >> they are just unbelievable. texas, the latest big state to say basically it needs help with testing material, with treatment material, with people to operate all of that and as we expect many other states to do until the very near future, they're turning to washington. the federal government has deployed disaster assistance teams and ambulances to new york. the new year's eve crowd in times square will be held to about a quarter of the usual, masks and proof of vaccination required. all of this as city is once again an epicenter of the pandemic. and statewide cases are up more than 80% since monday. >> we must learn to live with covid, adjust and pivot at the right time and we're doing that in new york and i'm extremely optimistic on how the city is going to respond. >> clearly new york and washington, d.c. are ahead of the curve but not by much. so expect in the next three to four weeks we'll see everybody hit with this. >> r

tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> joining me now is dr. scott miscovich. he is the u.s. consultant for covid-19 and the president and ceo of premier medical group usa. thanks so much for joining us. i want to get right to those new cdc guidelines. do you think it's the right call, and do you think there should be this distinction not being made in these regulations, by the way, between those who are vaccinated and those who are not? >> wow, paula, i think this surprised all of us when this came out. look at when it's coming out, when we have a surge of the most infectious variant of covid that the world has seen. and it's confusing to everyone. we're getting called all over by employers and by different patients and different even departments of health are trying to interpret this. it's very confusing. now, here's the biggest thing that concerns me. what do all of them state? wear a mask at the end of that five days. well, what about something we've been complaining about, which is what is the proper guidance for what mask is effective, and how do you wear it? everyone h

tom foreman, cnn, washington. >> and let's discuss with former fbi deputy director, andrew mccabe. also cnn's senior law enforcement analyst. andrew, so many red flags that were just missed and it's heartbreaking. ethan's parents pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter charges this morning, but missed their initial arraignment yesterday. police say they were found hiding in a warehouse overnight after an hours long man hunt. they turned off their phones and withdrew thousands of dollars from an atm, and yet the defense was claiming there was a miscommunication and that's why they didn't appear at their arraignment. what's going on here, andrew? what do you think? >> i don't know, jim, i think it's hard to communicate effectively when you're hiding in a warehouse and you turn your phone off. so i think, looking from the law enforcement perspective, and i say this as someone who's been involved in and overseen many, many man hunts for different people. as soon as there's a warrant for your arrest, that warrant, you have any reason to know that warrant is out there and you are

>> tom foreman, thanks. >>> let's bring in senior medical correspondent elizabeth cohen. the cdc says the decision is based purely on the science. what does the science say? >> so the science says that people are most transmissible, most contagious, jake, in the time before they have symptoms or in the two to three days after. so the cdc's reasoning is, if you have covid-19, but you're asymptomatic or maybe you're mildly symptomatic and now on the mend, why are we keeping you out of work for ten days when you're probably just transmissible for just two or three days after you have symptoms. why stay out for ten days? i've talked to experts who support this. i've talked to experts who don't support this. what they all agree is that the way the cdc wrote these guidelines, you need probably a degree in law, medicine, public health and maybe even discourse to understand what they are saying. it's difficult. we've tried to boil it down. so if you have covid-19, if you actually are infected, if you are asymptomatic or you have had symptoms but they're resolving, you have isolat

brian. >> tom foreman, hard to believe we're stig still talking about this. let's discuss it further with dr. jonathan reiner, a professor of surgery at the george washington school of medicine and health sciences and also a cnn medical analysts and given us so much good information over the past years. you don't think that new york should still hold the times square celebration, you've been clear about that. but what the fact that all of the attendees must be masked and they will be vaccinated and a quarter of number that would orig originally be at an event like this. does this he's any of your concerns that this could become a superspedder event. >> happy new year, brian. look, i think it is better for a celebration to be outside. that is pretty clear. and it is better for the number to be small. but it is not a small number of people that are getting together. i think they're going to have about 15,000 people there which sounds like a reduced number but that is a good sized crowd for madison square garden in a tight footprint. and this virus is extraordin

>> tom foreman, thanks so much.'s discuss this with an emergency room doctor and associate dean of public health at brown university. good to see you as always. how much difference could this fda decision and following cdc decision make expanding pfizer boosters to kids 12 to 15? >> expanding boosters is going to make i think the biggest difference for parents and kids to breathe a sigh of relief. we know those 12 to 15-year-olds have physiology, bodies that work very similarly to adults. we've suspected for a while that both immunity wanes in them the same way it does in the rest of us and that those two shots of the pfizer vaccine likely are not protecting them as well against omicron because two shots of pfizer don't protect the rest of us as well as a third dose would. so this is a big step forward especially with kids going back to school. we all know how important it is to keep those kids in person. boosters will help us do that. >> we know that after the fda makes its decision the cdc still has to sign off. s

o okay, tom, foreman, thank you very much. let's bring in dr. william shaffer. doctor, great to have you. the fda, we just learned, is expected to approve boosters for kids aged 12 to 15 very soon. when will those kids actually be able to get a shot? >> well, they'll likely be able to get a shot, alisyn, six months after their second dose that's currently the booster recommendation when you got an mrna vaccine if you were an adult and i would anticipate it would be entirely similar for children. >> but meaning, like, the boost, they will be able to get it next week? can it move that quickly? >> well, i would hope that the company is ready to start delivering the vaccine to the locations and get the word out to pediatricians and family doctors that they can do this if the children in their practice are eligible. but let's get back to ground one. there are so many children yet who are five years of age and older who haven't received their first dose yet. that's where the really big push has got to be. >> we have those numbers. let me just pull up a graphic to prov

that's all there is to it. >> well said, tom foreman, thank you. >> the pandemic has strained so many hospitals and demoralized so many health care workers in minnesota that a group of doctors and health care officials took out a full-page ad in the minneapolis ”star tribune” on sunday. the headline was we're heartbroken, we're overwhelmed, it went on to say quote at any time you or a loved one need our support, heart attacks, car accident, strokes, appendicitis, an ominous question looms, will you be able to get care from your local community hospital without delay. today that is uncertain. one of the doctors behind that ad is dr. ken holman, he is the president and ceo of sentra care in central minnesota, and he joins us now. dr. holman, thank you so much for being here. when i saw that headline, we're he heartbroken, we're overwhelmed, who do you want to see this ad? >> as you know, the pandemic has hit certain parts of our country quite viciously, and that's true for minnesota. you have seen the numbers, tom just referenced they want. in minnesota we are having a another really pr

the idea of 9,000 housing units being built on the side of the foreman airport very close to the columbia refugee camp separating phlegm the west bank and from ramallah. that's why it had such international pressure against it since it was raised again recently. it's why there seemed to be an indication from the israeli that is they were going to drop it under u.s. pressure. unless it was still on the agenda of this planning meeting. last week, the u.s. secretary of state anthony brooklyn blinken spoke to neftali bennett with this very much at the center of that conversation and that pressure may have had some affect. it's a political difficulty for him to just seed to u.s. pressure and reject it. what has happened instead is that the committee has decided that there are environmenta concerns that requires a major environmenta survey. that's one way out for neftali bennett. and it puts this controversial plan back on ice for now. >> south africa's president has stepped up his fierce criticism of the way the countries have reacted to the omicron variant of the coronavirus. he made the rema
