the soviet bloc held demonstrations and marches, speak-ins denouncing the continued domination of latvia,lithuania, poland and so on. so i take the view that once the bread and butter issues are more adequately taken care of, latinos will be more steadily longitudinally and predictably heard on these issues. if you look even at the congressional hispanic caucus since the 1960s, it's not founded in order to have a voice in the united states foreign policy toward mexico. he wants to improve the lives of his constituents in east l.a. and herman badillo of conditions in the south bronx. certainly the post revolution cuban american members of congress from south florida have never been shy about having their say about affairs back home. i think you're going to more reliably see hispanic elected officials in the united states be heard on issues outside bread and butter issues, which are still very pressing in a world of sub standard schools and segregated housing and lower family incomes and so on. you're still going to hear them first and foremost on bread and butter issues, but they're also,

ranks 32nd in the world behind latvia, lithuania testing covid samples.they had to correct the cdc. the cdc showed the wrong number for covid cases in florida on sunday. the cdc lumped multiple days into one. what do you say to that? >> i find it odd the cdc keeps making mistakes about my home state of florida. i think that is slightly political because of our governor ron desantis says vaccinations are the way to go. we'll not go back to anymore restrictions. but do that point, the cdc, the way it collects data it does not do it in a timely manner. it waits until it is published. with the trillions of dollars the u.s. spent on covid. it is amazing we're not doing more to test for the delta variant. elizabeth: we hear you, there is a 70% uptick in cases since last month. masks will not end the pandemic. only herd immunity will. a virus doesn't mutate unless you let it spread. that is why we're seeing a lot of about mandates. people are asking about the science behind the camera. anthony fauci talks about the science and endorses vaccinations mandates for

latvia what do you say to this?f their population, fewer samples you have, the fewer population easier it is to do. you compare the united states to the uk which again is not as big but the uk is still doing over 6% of genomic sequencing on their virus. as you pointed out the united states we're less than 2%. that is a big problem. the goal, you should be sequencing about 5% of the samples coming in. that is how you stay on top of emerging variants. that is how you make sure your models are more accurate and you can give accurate and precise information to your people but unfortunately everyone continues to speak in hyperbole because we don't have the data collection capabilities as you continue to see but this is not new for the cdc the cdc always had problem with siloed data. people are not communicating with with private hospitals public health labs, the cdc they are not communicating. they don't want to share their data to the detriment of united states. elizabeth: we have not genetically sequenced 99% of the sa

while austria, germany, slovenia, slovakia, latvia, romania and norway will be moved onto the green list have been now be added to the red list — the highest level of restrictions. this report from our transport correspondent, caroline davies. a near empty swimming pool, few tents pitched and no—one propping up the bar. this would normally be the busiest time of year at this campsite in western france, but at the moment, they're half—empty. hopefully there'll be a flurry of last—minute campers. we're hoping so, especially in september with the older couples who normally come who don't have families. i think it's too late for families to come because they will have booked elsewhere in the uk. across the channel, these british holiday—makers are staying home. with the kids and too late in summer, we've already had to change my holiday. i work for the nhs, so i've had to change my holiday that way. i couldn't quarantine when i get back, so, yeah, this is it for us this year. it's too risky to commit to an overseas holiday right now in my opinion. it's too much of an issue, effort to get tes

while austria, germany, slovenia, slovakia, latvia, romania and norway will be moved onto the green listxico and georgia have been added to the red list — the highest level of restrictions. up to 6,000 british residents are currently in mexico — and if they can't get back before sunday morning they will have to quarantine in a hotel at their own expense. the welsh government is expected to announce this afternoon whether they will adopt the same rules as the rest of the uk. with the latest, here's our transport correspondent caroline davies. a near—empty swimming pool, a few tents pitched, and no—one propping up the bar. this would normally be the busiest time of the year at this campsite in western france, but at the moment, they are half empty. so happy about it. we couldn't understand why we were on the amber—plus list anyway, to start with. we've had so many cancellations as a result of it and we're over the moon now. the amber—plus was a bit nonsensical to us because infection rates were lower here in france. ferry companies are hoping this will give a much—needed boost to passenger
