kessler, what should we be doing right now? should we be gathering with friends and family for the holidays? should we be canceling the gatherings like we did last year? should we be avoiding seeing our elderly relatives or people who are otherwise vulnerable? how should we calibrate our personal risk now, especially given the time of year? >> i can only tell you what i'm telling my own family, and that is to be a little more cautious. certainly when you're out, when you don't know people you're with indoors, mask up, get vaccinated, get boosted. let's get through the next six, eight weeks. maybe this is milder, but until we've proven it's milder, i would ask you to be just a drop more cautious than you've been. >> dr. david kessler, chief science officer to the biden administration's covid response, former fda commissioner, of course. doctor kessler, as always, we're grateful for you being here whenever you can be here. thanks for taking the time to be here tonight. >> thanks, rachel. >> all right, we'll be right back. stay wi

joining us to get through some of it now is doctor david kessler he has helped guide us on the show likeiden administration covid response. doctor, it is an honor to having you here. thank you for making time to be here tonight. you did a great job of that rachel. let me ask if it's fair to extrapolate from the. our booster shots as clearly helpful as that nursing home data would seem to suggest? should that guide us not just for that specific population but for all of us? >> absolutely. no question. let me explain how it works. so if you boost the immune system with a third dose after a pause that produces enhanced community. and that is what you saw in those graphs. that was important in the nursing homes and it's especially important as we face omicron. >> in terms of omicron, it seems like you and the other experts have told us that it is taking hold if. us the cdc says omicron has made up about 3% of what is known to be circulating in the country right now. do you think that that is a fair estimate? do we have a good way of measuring that? and do you think that that number is going

kessler notes, there is plenty available. plenty supplies. i mean, it does still leave one question remaining. if your first shot was j&j, how many boosters should you get? should you just get one shot of pfizer? one shot of moderna? i mean, you have to get two shots of pfizer or moderna to be considered fully vaccinated in the first place, and then you get boosted with a third shot. if your first shot was johnson & johnson, should you get ultimately two shots of pfizer or two shots of moderna or just one as a booster? right now the guidance is just to get one shot, one booster shot if you had johnson & johnson. the question of whether that guidance might change is now open. and, frankly, 16 million people need to know. watch this space. mom, hurry! our show's gonna start soon! i promised i wouldn't miss the show and mommy always keeps her promises. oh, no! seriously? hmm! it's not the same if she's not here. oh. -what the. oh my goodness! i don't suppose you can sing, can you? ♪ the snow's comin' down ♪ -mommy? ♪ i'm watching it fall ♪ watch

so, jason kessler is viewed with a lot of contempt by other people in the white power movement.tikas, but he was very interested in political violence and very comfortable with the idea of that. and that's what we've seen since the collapse of the alt-right, militias, proud boys, the people who stormed the capitol. none of those people are walking around with swastikas, but they are very comfortable with political violence. so, yes, in a way, this was a sign of things to come. >> all right. it's just all so disturbing. elie reeve, great work as always. and her special report "white power on trial: return on charlottesville" airs tonight at 9:00 right here on cnn. we'll be right back. henry? thanks. if it's “out decorating the neighbors” season, it's walgreens season. ♪ ♪ what a pain in the— alice? if it's “lets wrap this up?” season, it's walgreens season. it's the season of smiling. and at aspen dental, we make it easy to gift yourself the smile you deserve. new patients, start today with a full exam and x-rays, with no obligation. if you don't have insurance, it's free. plus e

laurie talked about kessler has a protege of olmsted. but there had always been an interest and connection and continues to be. and so in a way we tried to do this by developing a language that was a little bit familiar to both, that is, to both park and quad. and one that transforms the east campus from one that you are looking at existing condition when we started, that is dominated by surface parking, to one that is pedestrian-oriented and dominated by landscape be awe place organized around a central green with collection of smaller gardens that are formed and framed and adjacent to six new buildings and metered by a restored and sustainable allay over the top of an 800 car parking garage below that green. olmsted's involvement with wash u began in 1894 when the university acquired 103 acres on the west side of forest park. and forest park was just being completed at that time. and they engaged the olmsted office to advise the university on planning for this new campus. in 1894 -- 1895 olmsted brothers tendered this plan that you saw

kessler trial contend the events of august 17th, 18th -- i'm sorry. it's august 11th and 12th. i this think those dates are wrong. where white nationalists and neo-nazi groups held tiki torches chanting jews will not replace us -- i bring this up because the violence that we saw in charlottesville on the university of virginia campus in august of 2017 has anticedents in your time period for today. first thing i want to say in september 1928 the blood liable that was faced in russia made its way to the united states. it came to mecina, new york in a time where the ku klux klan burned crosses on lawns and a sneaky kind of anti-semitism was common. her brother comes out but the little girl never returns. through the night the towns men comb the woods looking for the little girl and then when they haven't found her, someone sh and we don't flow who, but someone says, you know, the jews are having a holiday. maybe they need blood. sun down, sunday evening, the next day would begin the holiest day of the jewish calendar. the day of atonement. some time sunday afternoon, the little gi

kessler trial contend the events of august 17th, 18th -- i'm sorry. it's, where white nationalists and neonazi groups held torches chanting that jews would not relace us were meant to ignite the violence that culminated in the death of a woman and the injuries sustained by the plaintiffs in this trial. and so there is a law from 1871 called the klu klux klan act that makes it illegal to promote violence. so the defendants in the trial who are the heads of all of the white nationalist groups that were marching there. they say that what they were doing is protected speech because we have the first amendment, but the first amendment does not protect speech that is meant to insight violence. we'll see what happens in the court of the next month and the trial, but i bring this up because of the violence that we saw in charlottesville on august of 2017 has anticedence in our time period today. so the first thing i want to say is that in september of 1928, the blood liable that was faced in russia made it's way to the united states. it came to new york in a

joining us this morning is aaron kessler.py new year. >> how is it going >> pretty good you still think guidance for '22 is aggressive and you still believe that a lot of demand was, in fact, pulled forward by covid? >> yeah. that's our view. the company got about 1 million net adds in terms of subscriber growth for fiscal '22. pre-covid, they were on track of 500,000 per year we think in this environment, where people are looking to get out of their homes more, the economy has opened a lot, a lot of demand was pulled forward we think these are creating near-term headwinds. we looked at the data recently, still shows consumers are searching for peloton. we think clear that shows demand was pulled forward, less interest right now and kind of at-home fitness. we like the long-term trends, but near term, the demand was pulled forward and we're skeptical that they can hit a million subscriber growth for fiscal '22. >> what do you think -- how do you characterize demand headwinds held to some of the supply headwinds that they actu

know how much money this man has, but also he lied, he broke every single rule, worse than mitch kessler "the morning show. i'm saying the character was like that. this guy was total, okay, i was really bad and i have to give the money back it's the lying had he just said, listen, i've been really bad about this, the call back would have been less, but the lying was horrendous i knew steve, but i like to say about some others that got in trouble, i obviously didn't. i think we both can say that, not quite the person we thought. chipotle is unrolling a new concept in ohio, no dining at all. >> i know, and then when we again to what jensen huang, this is the ceo of nvidia, he has the avatar ready in 28 languages that can take order after order after order, and all you do is pick them up maybe he's intimidating to these companies. he's ready to speak to you i'm not try to go create a deal here, but jensen huang has an answer it's an avatar that won't get sick, goes to work every day. >> will try to get your order right and maybe suggest things it thinking you will like. >> it wants your nat

former fda commissioner david kessler who led the agency in 2001 has since said there are no studies on the safety or efficacy of opioids for long-term use and has called the fda's 2001 decision a mistake and a, quote, blank check for the industry. do you agree with that assessment? >> there are more long-term studies underway, but at the time he said it, i think it was accurate and it could have been done differently. i'm an avid space person, and if we're going to encourage people to take drugs for a long period of time, we need more studies. >> it's an old adage but it's worth repeating. the first step toward fixing a problem is admitting you have one. repeatedly i've asked fda officials about this and i get this kind of vague answer about whether the 2001 relabeling was a mistake, and its failure to admit to having created problems for over 20 years is partly why we have an opioid crisis in the first place, and it's still troubling to me that we don't have direct acknowledgment by fda and fda officials that they made mistakes, and that in 2001, the decision to relabel created an
