public health agencies must make recommendations based on evidence, not politics. they say leave it to the health experts to say when schools should reopen in various localities. >> well, i'm glad you cited the american academy of pediatrics. because they also have noted that this whole question of school and going back to school in the fall is one of health for students. and there are multiple measures for student health. we know -- as secretary azar said, this is a question of health versus health, not health versus something else. we know that kids are suffering mentally with many mental issues. we know that kids are suffering with social, emotional learning issues. we know that kids from vulnerable populations and homes have been suffering by not being in school and by not continuing their learning. all of those are measures that have to be weighed along with the risk of a virus. and we know, again, from the data, that kids don't get this virus the same way adults do. and so, again, the posture needs to be around going back to school. chris: i've been told the s

the group is publishing an open letter calling on health agencies to talk more about airborne transmission. they say researchers have known for months that covid-19 can survive in the tiny droplets we emit while talking. rather than fall these droplets float in the air and can be inhaled deeply into the lungs. joining me now is dr. matthew, a public health specialist, primary care physician and cnn medical analyst. always good to talk with you, doctor. >> same here. >> so a group of health experts plans to ask the w.h.o., cdc ask other health agencies to do a better job of telling people that the coronavirus can float in air droplets. that's been out there for some time. so what is the significance of this new push? >> i think the main reason for that, just as you mentioned, to push the notion that wearing a cloth mask is really going to try to help us contain this pandemic. we already know it's transmitted in the air droplet when is you talk, when you breathe. there's been a lot of simulations that talk about how far the air droplets can spread depending on if you're whispering, talking,

one of the big reasons is that we have the world's leading republican health agency and they have not been in a position to lead. they haven't been out front talking to the public every day telling people what they can do to protect their health. they haven't been supported by the leaders in the government to be in that position. the cdc put forward evidence based guidance around how to open schools safely this fall. when those documents go through clearance, the white house has an input and never in our years of working at cdc have we seen an administration take a guidance that had been approved and out there and junld cut and it say people don't need to follow the guidance from cdc. so whether it will put teachers and children and staff at risk. we want to show our support for the agency at the federal level trying to get this under control. >> let me ask you, if i can, push back on that for a moment. how would you rate the cdc's ability to withstand this from the sfwhous there have been two sets of guidelines. one for reopening the economy, the other for reopening schools. not rece

and other health agencies in the coming hours to do a better job of telling people that the coronavirus can float in air droplets and is likely transmitted that way. certainly, my understanding that that has been out there for some time. it has been discussed publicly before. what is the significance of this new push, do you think? >> i think the main reason for that, just like you mentioned, is to push the notion that wearing a cloth mask is really going to try to help us contain this pandemic. we already know it's transmitted in the air droplet when is you talk, when you breathe. there's been a lot of simulations that talk about how far the air droplets can spread depending on if you're whispering, talking, shouting or screaming. so it's just a push by the w.h.o. to make sure that we all understand the importance of wearing a mask. >> we can't labor that point enough. and doctor, president trump tried to down play the severity of covid-19 over the weekend by falsely claiming that 99% of cases are harmless, totally harm less, he said. the fda commissioner refused to defend or deny trum
