william haseltine. wonderful to have you here.ow that there is a lot we don't know about these positive results. data.'t have the safety there are concerns about the delicate storage conditions. which will be the most toblematic in the road getting widespread vaccination of the global population. there is apparently good news. the vaccine is preventing a number of people from getting seriously ill. that is tempered by the fact that it relies upon statements of the ceo of pfizer and not the data. , a assuming that is true major roadblock is timing. outfast can these be rolled and how fast can they make any difference on a population wide basis. have been rolled out in russia for some time and russia is participating with the rest of europe, united states and most of the world in viral infection disease. it isn't just the existence but how well it works, and in answer to your question, how soon it can reach people. probably not most people until the middle of next year at the very earliest. then its dependent on how money people can

joining us now is professor william haseltine.is the chair and president of access health international and the author of a covid back-to-school guide. professor haseltine, thanks for being with us. nearly 100,000 new cases on friday. i just want to know, how much more worse you think it might get. >> this can get a lot worse than it is now. all you have to do is look at other countries. if we had the rate that france has today, france, that was doing so well, we would be at a rate of about 170,000 people. and that, i think, is where we're headed. we're headed up to the 200,000. and that translates to maybe 2,500 people dying every day. that's about a death a minute. we had the president's son saying "nobody's dying." i would like him to go to 1,200 funerals a day, that's one every two minutes that happens now. that is what's going on. this is not a small event. this is a catastrophe for our count country. >> and when do you think we're going to hit those even more catastrophic points? >> i think we're going to hit them much faste

joining us now, william haseltine. he is the chair and president of access health international, a former professor at harvard medical school. professor, always a pleasue to have you with us. 93,000 americans in the hospital at the end of november. where will we be at the end of december? >> i think we will be much higher number than that. as you have just heard, this pandemic is surging in the united states. it is not being controlled by public health measures. i look at numbers around the world and we saw similar numbers in european countries. they've locked down and taken serious measures, and they haven't eliminated, but at least they've plateaued the dramatic rise. and in some countries like france, they've made a major dent in the number of people infected. we could do it too, but, we're not. >> professor, dr. deborah birx says that if you traveled for the thanksgiving holiday, you should assume that you're infected, because obviously, you can be asymptomatic or the symptoms may have not showed up yet. so you nee

more than 2,100 new deaths reported overnight, joining us now, william haseltine. he is the chair and president of access health international, former professor at harvard pleb medical school. professor, i wish the news was better in terms of where we are today. i understand the vaccines are coming, that's good news. but the news today, not good. record hospitalizations for the 15th straight day and a curve that is still rising steeply. 2,100 new deathses were reported overnight, and that number will track the hospitalizations and go up in the next several weeks. what are you seeing? how do you feel this morning? >> i am feeling like many of us in the public health area, desperate. because not only is this terrible numbers that you've just described, but what we see happening this weekend, this long thanksgiving weekend is going the drive those numbers still higher. we're going to see hospitals that are already stretched to capacity break under the strain of new patients. we're going to see, as we have seen in new york, refrigerated rubbings that have been parked f

haseltine. >> thank you. >>> the colorado governor responds to to trump campaign's claims, next. >>> americans are struggling, a single mom shares her story here. >>> the trump campaign's legal team filed baseless claims of legal fraud. rudy giuliani and sidney powell claiming dominion systems is tied to hugo chavez -- it's not. and jenna ellis making this accusation during a radio interview. >> we're seeing how dominion may have swung some of the state and local races in colorado as well. >> okay, so, facts first. this is false. federal officials have said there's no evidence of widespread fraud or irregularities during the election. and there have been no credible reports of problems with vote counts on dominion machines. colorado's governor joins us. what do you think about the accusation of colorado voting? >> it's absurd. frankly, if these kinds of charges weren't being echoed by the person who was the president of the united states, these would be folks with tinfoil hats. unfortunate, unfortunately, we have to listen by january 20th, but we're looking forward to the next day, w

professor haseltine, have you known dr. fauci for decades. i know he's a close, personal friend.hat's your response to this, the way they are attacking him, but also what might happen to him. >> the first thing i'll say, i know him as a friend. for the last 35 years we've worked together. i know of no person less political than tony fauci. he's a servant of the american people. he has dedicated to six presidents, including the highest award ever given to an american, the american medal of freedom he has received. he's an american patriot. more than that, he would never deviate from the science. i want to go back to something else, though, we've been talking about, which is scott atlas. people like president trump pick the people who agree with their politi politics. it's like mbeki of south africa picking an aids denyer, denying aids. this is not only murderous, people die. in america hundreds of thousands of americans might tie because of this advice, just like in south africa they died because mbeki decided to pick somebody who was way out of the mainstream and believed hiv did

joining us now, william haseltine. chair and president of access health international, former professor at harvard medical school. professor, thanks so much for being with us. look, then there were three. the news from astrazeneca follows pfizer and moderna. very positive results in these phase iii vaccine trials. what does having this third option potentially mean this morning? >> first of all, it's good news for everybody. the astrazeneca vaccine is being tested around the world and being manufactured in part in india. it so means that people other than in the u.s. will have an opportunity to have this vaccine. but before we get too enthusiastic, we should be optimistic, but not wildly enthusiastic. we don't know how long this vaccine lasts. we don't know if it's fully safe for everyone. and we don't think it protects infection. so you may be infected, but you don't get so sick. what they're really measuring is not prevention of infection, but prevention of symptoms. so those are things to look for coming forward. an

william haseltine, thank you for joining us. every time you're here, you make us a little bit smarter. >>> coming up, we've got to talk about markets. as carl quintanilla puts it, markets around the world are going bananas today. way up on the news of this pfizer vaccine. >>> plus, the person who led obama's transition in 2008 joins us to talk about how joe biden can make sure his administration is ready to go on day one. with or without cooperation from the trump white house. >>> and the fight for control of the u.s. senate comes down to one state, the state of georgia. we'll take you to the ground there where voters are mobilizing for two runoff races. first, now that the presidential race has been called, i want to take a moment to pay tribute to the man who made all of us smarter this past election week, steve kornacki. he's finally getting some much-deserved rest after beaking a social media superstar doing math on live tv and staying up for days. steve, i'm going to just tell you, i miss you this morning, but i want to tha

our last guest, william haseltine, very dubious we will get a consistent rollout of the vaccine before the end of 22 anyone, our markets -- for the the markets are already pricing that in? >> it is hard to say how early they can roll out and i think it is early to speculate, but we do know that the end is in sight. that will continue to support the market. itit is six-month longer, might damage how quickly we rise. this time next year, we will have more to be thankful for. we will have a vaccine in the world and we will have a way to get hold of this pandemic. is this a theme that is here to stay? we saw this play out in a dramatic fashion. outperforming growth stocks. that was really dramatic in asia last week where the gap was at its most since 2000. is that something that makes more sense in asia, given that we are seeing more of an individualistic recovery in north asian economies from covid? >> in the end, growth is going to win. i think this is a short-term rotation. for the next two years, we are going to be mostly stuck at home or indoors. tech will continue to rise, which driv
