lilly, i'm so appreciative of you being here this morning.a friend of yours in the aftermath of all this. can you tell me what you're thinking and feeling this morning as we have been living in these services for the justice. >> she is -- was such a huge person in my life and she made such a tremendous difference in my life when she challenged congress to take up the ball. she said justice is in your court, it is up to you. and she did. she changed and challenged congress so heavily that they had to pick up that ball. and when that ball went to the court, when the -- from the court to the hall of congress, i went with it. because she gave me as i said many times the dignity to hold my head up and go forward because i had nothing to be embarrassed about. i had a good case. and she agreed with me. she did. she said these other justices do not understand what it is like in the real world and we must change this grave injustice back. she became the very dear friend of mine, she mailed me a copy of her husband's cookbook and wrote me the sweetest

her dissent became the basis for the lilly ledbetter fair pay act which was passed in the congress. the first bill to be signed by president obama, his first to sign. the congress, more in touch with the changing times and expansion of the quality -- equality. first time, it was taking 79 by the time it was finished. her passing, it is like a death in so many families in our country. people pinned their hopes, heated her guidance, admired her stamina. her love of the arts, bringing stability to her relationships. we observe time as her passing, we observe the deaths of the family of 200,000 americans. from the coronavirus. we mourn every one of them. i had the opportunity to be invited a couple of days ago was exceeded,r actually. there were 20,000 flags in the mall in front of the washington monument. 20,000 flags. if you saw the optic of it, that many flags. representing, each one of them, 10 people who had died. es, 200,000 families. many not even able to give a hug. way,d not have to be this fortrump's contempt science including his covering of the catastrophic nature and distan

that became the lilly ledbetter law that was the first bill signed by barack obama. so the congress has the ability to overturn injustices that spring from the supreme court, and that's why we have to have a big turnout in this election, not for politics, not for anything other than what it means to people in their homes, in their lives. >> you are in the middle of negotiations over government funding. the government runs out of funding at the end of september. is there any way we can use leverage in those negotiations to slow this down? >> none of us has any interest in shutting down government. that has such a harmful and painful impact on so many people in our country, so i would hope that we could just proceed with that. there is some enthusiasm among some exuberance on the left to say. we're not going to be shutting down government. i do hope though that the focus on health care and what it means in terms of the courts will have public opinion be of such magnitude that the republicans will finally, finally address the coronavirus crisis, finally subscribe to a p

eight-year-old lilly is in a hurry, racing to the backyard to check out a library book. >> i'm like, oh, i goto get ready for the book. we have a lot of birds in this area and sometimes we feel like the birds are going to swoop down and take it. >> reporter: take it from a drone. in the southwest corner of virginia, this is the u.s. test for wing, drone testing facility. >> reporter: why can't i deliver library books? >> yeah. so we were initially talking about the program as a way to bring kids and their summer reading together. >> this was one of the first to sign up last fall. the montgomery county schools lay brarn reached out with the idea. >> we continued to find ways to bring reading and to bring books to our students. >> reporter: you took that quite literally. >> absolutely. i found a new way to do it. >> reporter: when covid took away the libraries, wing flew in to help. about 600 kids live in the deliveryret.can finds the book, packages its and drops it off at wing where the book is weighed, whereas the drones can only carry about three pounds, hoisted into area and carrie

that is what the fight with lilly ledbetter was. and i thank lilly ledbetter. i thank lilly ledbetter for having the cucialg to file that case -- having the courage to file that case and stand up to that discrimination and basically fight a long process that people don't understand, we do not have pay equity in america yet. we still are not making the same amount as men. ruth ginsburg made a decision that set the course for the lilly ledbetter law, which is just basically saying instead of saying our time to file a case for discrimination runs out after a year, when we don't even know we've been discriminated against, we should have a longer period of time to file that case. so all we're going to get is our day in court. but i thank both lilly ledbetter and justice ginsburg for that because they were women standing up in an incredible environment with men surrounding them and speaking truth to power about what needed to happen for, as my constituent says here, for full economic opportunities for all people. i can't tell you how many men i have heard say i want

we passed the lilly ledbetter fair pay act, a copy of which she proudly hung in her chambers , a bill that i was so proud to help bring to fruition on the floor of this body. in shelby county vs. holden, the disaster decision to invalidate key provisions of the voting rights act, justice ginsburg's dissent spoke truth to power. she wrote throwing out key provisions of the voting rights act when it has worked to stop discriminatory changes is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you're not getting wet. of course justice ruth bader ginsburg was right. and since that decision, we've witnessed a turn to voter suppression laws because the supreme court did not listen to her. that's why i championed the bipartisan john lewis voting rights advancement act to restore the voting rights act. these drives for change and many others often began with two words from -- i dissent. all the greatness of justice ginsburg and her goodness. all of us remember the cancer event. i mentioned that earlier. she and my wife marcelle spoke together at that last year. she was so genuinely kind

that's what she did in 2007 in the case of lilly ledbetter v. goodyear tire. the supreme court ruled 5-4 that a woman who was paid less than her male coworkers for years doing exactly the same work could not sue her former employer for wage discrimination. the woman only learned about the pay gap after she retirement but a conservative majority then on the court ruled that she'd lost her chance at justice by failing to sue within six months of her first unequal paycheck. in dissent, justice ginsburg challenged congress to correct this injustice, and we d the very first law signed by president barack obama was the lilly ledbetter fair pay act of 2009. a framed copy of that signed law hung in justice ginsburg's supreme court chambers has a gift from president obama. he signed it with the folating inscription -- thanks for helping create a more equal and justice society. in her dissent in the 2013 voting rights case, shelby county v. holder, which gutted the heart of the voting rights act, justice ginsburg pointed out the awful irony of the majority decision. she

joining me now, lilly ledbetter and tina chen.o the drek r tor of the white house counsel of women and girls under president obama. i'm happy to reunite the two of you. you became friends when tina was working in the white house. i'm sure you're happy to see one another. as congress did take ax then in 2009, the president signed the lilly ledbetter fair pay act. how are you remembering ginsburg today? >> ginsburg's dissent changed my life and it changed a lot of lives across this great nation. because the outcry and the outpouring across the nation when the verdict came out and the led bbetter good year case,t not only affected me and my family but it was thousands across this nation and it's a fundamental american right that women are paid and compensated according to the law and the law has been on the books for many, many years, but most companies and employers do not adhere to it. so it was nothing but right and she changed my drastically, but i will say this. she gave me some dignity to hold my head up and go forward because

i should not have been there. >> it was personal to her, lilly, as it was for you. you have been looking at, by the way, on the screen, some of the preparations now for the public to be able to come and pay their respebs to justice ginsburg. you saw some of the flowers being laid at the top of the steps of the supreme court. she'll lie in repose there outside in just about 55 minutes or so. there will be the ability for people to come over the next two days actually, today and tomorrow, to come and honor justice ginsburg. outside the supreme court now to jeff bennett who is there. jeff, tell me what it is like where you are. are there people already waiting and gathered, i would assume? >> reporter: yeah, they have been, hallie. and, look, this plaza in front of the supreme court has been a convening spot since friday night. people coming to leave flowers, candles, offer silent reflections and i'm joined now by kara frederick who drove down from philadelphia this morning with her daughter and her daughter's best friend. and tell me, why was it important for you to b

her dissent became the basis for the lilly ledbetter fair pay act which was passed in the congress. and the first bill to be signed by president obama, his first to sign. once again, the congress more in touch with changing times and the expansion of equality in our country. time, it was 1879 by the time it was finished. in any event her passing, it is , like a death in so many families in our country. so many people pinned their hopes, heated her guidance, admiredd her guidance, her stamina, her love of the arts, bringing civility to her relationships and the court and in the country. at the same time as we observe her passing, we observe the deaths of the family of 200,000 americans. from the coronavirus. we mourn every one of them. i had the opportunity to be invited the other day, a couple of days ago, when the number was -- exceeded, actually. on theere 20,000 flags mall in front of the washington monument. 20,000 flags. if you saw the optic of it, that the visuals that many flags. representing, each one of them, 10 people who had died. 10 families, 200,000 families. suffering

. >> and few of those calls were as loud as the dissent she wrote on behalf of lilly ledbetter in 2007been discriminated against by goodyear tire for years and years and years but didn't really realize that she'd been paid less than men doing the same job until very late in her career. and the question was, could she sue for all of the discrimination? >> the supreme court ruled that she could not since the statute of limitations for holding her employer accountable had expired. >> justice ginsburg believed the majority did not fully appreciate how hard it is to uncover when you are being paid less than your male peers. >> as part of her dissent, she urged congress to rectify this injustice. >> i ended my dissent with the line "the ball is now in congress' court to correct the error into which my colleagues have fallen." >> and shortly after his inauguration in 2009, with lilly ledbetter looking on, president barack obama signed the lilly ledbetter fair pay act into law. [ applause ] yet ginsburg knew there were other injustices that still needed to be corrected. >> i think what has pus

let's check in with the chairman and ceo of eli lilly to get the r recent developments.come back to "mad money". >> great to be with you, jim thanks for having me on. >> dave, i think a lot of people may say just a 25% improvement what does that mean? there is another company pfizer that has a drug in there, too. can you explain to people how monumental 25% save rate really is here? >> well, it's obviously significant. this study enrolled patients who have what's called receptor positive, her two negative very common form treated by physicians and trying to prevent the cancer from coming back. when you added this drug it reduced the 25% chance of the cancer coming back this is the only improvement we've seen in almost 25 years on the background standard of care and a 1 in 4 chance your cancer won't return is meaningful in a high-risk population great news for breast cancer patients will is there is no other drug in this class and we'll submit to the fda in the sec half of this year. >> while we are on the subject of your franchise, it seems to get better and better. rece

. 20 months later, the lilly ledbetter pay act was the first bill that the president signed into law. in 2010, ginsburg became the most senior of her liberal colleagues, stephen colbert figured that out the hard way. >> i'm working out with an 85-year-old woman. >> reporter: in 2019, doctors treating the justice for broken ribs discovered cancerous growths on her lung. the surgery was successful but caused ginsburg to miss arguments on the supreme court for the first time in her career. she was also treated several times for pancreatic cancer. even after losing her husband after 66 years to cancer, ginsburg was back on the bench the next morning. >> i love the work i do. i think i have the best job in the world. i respect all of my colleagues and genuinely like most of them. [ laughter ] >> reporter: her best friend on the bench was the late justice antonin scalia, her ideological opposite. >> what's not to like. [ laughter ] accept her views of the law, of course. >> reporter: she shared a laugh about ginsburg drinking wine before nodding off at the state of the union. >> i was 100%

american drug maker eli lilly says its antibody based covert 19 treatment appears to have reduced the hospitalization rate for patients recently diagnosed with moderate symptoms from the virus now the pharmaceutical company says it held trials using 3 different doses of the drug against a placebo on 450 patients now the trials consisted of 72807000 milligram doses of the drug with the middle of those significantly reducing the presence of covert taint the other 2 doses did not meet the company's goals on the news eli lilly's stock rose 2.6 percent in premarket but has since leveled out now meanwhile the u.s. government outlined a plan wednesday to make coronavirus vaccines free to all americans once a candidate has successfully gained regulatory approval in a report provided to congress federal health agencies and the department of defense laid out plans for a vaccination campaign to start in january of next year or earlier if at all possible this plan was quick to point out that this would not be an overnight affair saying while there may be limited supply of 1st the focus will be pu

you know, i was in the courtroom with you, irv when you argued the lilly ledbetter case so i remember the questions well. you were too modest to mention you prevailed in the case and precipitated one of her most famous dissents from the bench that in turn prompted congressional action, which is all part of the remarkable leadership and that she provided the court's liberal wing. you know, especially in her last years on the court. and really, you know, had such a broad view of, you know, her role and her ability not just to sort of win cases in court for her side, but also to-- in a case like that, to prompt congressional reaction. you know, that was all a remarkable case. you know, to don's point about her dedication to her craft under, you know, difficult physical circumstances, i mean, i will, you know, it was a privilege to argue in front of her every time, she always, based on her arduous work habits put you to, not just through your paces, but made you a better lawyer, because if you didn't know the record backward and forwards, you knew she would. so, it definitely kept you wor

lilly was on with my colleague ali velshi earlier today.t a little bit of that tenacity justice ginsburg had to go forward and try to make a difference. because i basically told my family i would probably never get any money because most cases like these are drug on for years, and people don't collect. but i had to do it because it was right. >> alexis, in practical terms, what did this case mean for americans? >> it meant that equal pay was possible and restitution was possible past the statute of limitations. and what we saw there was the response as we've heard tonight that the art of dissent is not grandstanding. it's not about making the news. it's about punching it back to the other branches of government, particularly congress and saying we need legislation to help us the next time around because it's true that nothing happens overnight, that most of these cases are fought over and over and over again. and we need legislation to back them up. and in particular with the voting right act, if you talk to civil rights lawyers, you will h

when five justices ruled against lilly ledbetter, tiss ginsburg -- justice ginsburg called to action and inspired the republican congress to change the law and strengthen equal pay protefpblgts bill in sharon, pennsylvania. good morning. caller: good morning. host: what are your thoughts? caller: i think she should be able to lie in state. in the d our time house. wherever she was at. and i think she should be allowed to come be allowed to lay where she -- in the other. i think it would be a beautiful thing for them to do for her. host: ok. georgia, hi bill. caller: good morning. host: good morning. caller: i think she was a great lady. i admired her. the only -- i think she ought to lie in state at the capitol. the only thing i have against her was that she was for abortion. i think that's just horrendous that these people cannot give the rights to an unborn baby that it deserves. host: bill. usa notes she was -- her presence on the court preserved a woman's right to choose. she was the crucial vote on the current court to keep row v. wade. even though she had outs about the way the

eli lilly showing reports that this may work. ory goal is to look at three different doses of the antibody against placebo and to see if it reduced the viral load it found the middle dose reduced the load, the others didn't. part of that might be that time point. think did find most patients did clear the virus by day 11. it does show in mild to moderate patients, people are getting better people on the drug cleared the virus earlier. it reduced those on higher viral load they say fewer patients on the drug went to hospitals or the er in smaller numbers 7% on the drug versus 6% people that had to go to the hospital had underlying risks like age or bmi. they saw rapid improvements on those restrictions oven safety, they say it is well tolerated. lilly's chief scientific officer say the drug has a direct anti-viral affect and may reduce covid hospitalizations reinforcing our conviction that reducing antibodies will help. they are taking next steps and running more studies that does include the potential to file for emergency use au

lilly crick has a family of four. she bought two of the planters.they provide her family with half of the vegetables they eat each week as well as peace of mind. >> there's a certain sense of comfort in not having to go to the supermarket and just having it there and knowing that it's always there. you don't know what everyone else may or may not have. >> reporter: the pandemic is forcing people to be more cautious in their work life and their home life. innovative companies are helping them keep connected and healthy. sugaya fumio, nhk world, los angeles. >>> okay, let's get a check on the markets. ♪ >>> that's it for "newsline biz" from our tokyo studios. i'm ramin mellegard. thank you very much for joining us. anchor: you are watching live from paris on "france 24." these are the headlines at this hour. should julian assange be extradited to the united states? that is the question judges in the u.k. have to answer, with the wikileaks founder wanted stateside on spying charges. he could spend decades in jail if found guilty there. we will be takin

lilly wants to know, how long is this going to last? we'll have poor or moderate air quality for days but i think she means the look, this orange haze. >> it's hard to say this orange haze is going to look this way for the next two days, but we don't see enough of a significant change in our wind patterns that we'll have a dramatic change in the way the sky looks until, perhaps, friday maybe saturday. >> spencer, it looks like it will be awful for us to spend time outside today but is it? >> yes, it must be. because even though we see air quality snot terrible, we're seeing ash collect on the sidewalks and. if you like working outdoors or taking brisk walks and this air quality is not good for us, but it could be worse the transamerica building. it is just unreal, folks, this is not, one time with the big sur fire and there was this effect as well. another time was when there was an implosion, but we don't go into that story, but spencer, david wants to know, how is this affecting the earth's natural heating and cooling cycle? wow, that

. >> reporter: meanwhile, progress for a potential treatment, eli lilly saying its drug derived from antibody of one of the first american covid patients dramatically decreased hospitalization risk in patient with mild to moderate cases, the results have not been independently reviewed as u.s. covid deaths near the 200,000 mark advice from the cdc. >> this face mask is more guaranteed to protect me against covid than when i take the covid vaccine. >> reporter: another reminder that today's best defense is one of the simplest anne thompson, nbc news, new york. >> now, this story doesn't end here hours after the cdc director testified, president trump called out that vaccine timeline, saying director redfield made a mistake and that is that the vaccine would come much, much sooner. here's hallie jackson with more on that disconnect. >> reporter: president trump late tonight contradicting his cdc director on that six to nine month timeline to get americans vaccinated. >> i think he made a mistake when he said that it's just incorrect information. when he said it, i believe he was confus

committed to making sure that science prevails and not politics >> reporter: the ceo of drug maker eli lillyhe industry has too much to lose by rushing the process saying we're not going to make something or we're not going to sell it until we've proven to our own standards it's safe and effective. >> for all the speed that has occurred before those phase three trials as long as we hold these vaccines to a phase three standard i think the public can be confident. >> reporter: the cdc plans to prioritize who gets the vaccine first, including health care workers, essential workers, anyone 65 and older and racial groups most at risk. hallie >> reporter: tom costello, thank you. >>> another big challenge in developing a vaccine, gettin enough people of color to participate in the trials ron allen has more. >> reporter: while communities of color have been hardest hit by the pandemic many remain reluctant in the race to find a vaccine. among some 360,000 volunteers so far just 40,000 are minorities. >> the only way we're going to bring about change, especially in our disparities, we have to get i

i think the best example of that is her opinion in the lilly ledbetter case the pay discrimination caserful dissent talked about the manifest unfairness in closing off a remedy for women who didn't even know they were discriminated against within the relevant time frame and her thoughts didn't carry the day on that statutory interpretation question but she said in the dissent it was a call to action and congress acted by enacting the lilly ledbetter pay act and it shows these dissents have a purpose and value and lay down principles she never gave up hope would be persuasive even in the future. >> a former clerk for justice ruth bader ginsburg, elizabeth, thanks very much. >> thank you. >>> my mother taught me that your name will go farther than your face will ever see. few lives prove that point like ruth bader ginsburg's. her face was easy to find on signs at women's marches across the country. she was a feminist icon and a living legend. ginsburg's legend lives on tonight at the u.s. supreme court. the women's march organization is cohosting a candlelight vigil to honor her and carry

and there was the case, the lilly ledbetter fair pay case, in which, even though she lost that case, in dissent, she called-- basically called on congress to deal with this situation, since the supreme court would not. and congress did respond. and it was the first law that president obama signed-- the first legislation that president obama signed into law. so even in dissent, she had a powerful influence. >> sreenivasan: amy, i want to ask, in the-- now we have justice kagan. we have justice sotomayor. before bader ginsburg, we had sandra day o'connor. what does she add into thimix? >> she often talked about how justice o'connor sort of-- "mentored" may have been a strong word, but really sort of helped her along when she arrived on the bench and, you know, when she was assigned her first opinion. frequently, the first opinion for a new justice is a relatively straightforward one, butustice ginsburg thought it was a relatively complicated one, and justice o'connor, who was, you know, really just sort of no nonsense, said to her, "just-- just get it done, ruth, before the-- he assign

can now said to block grants and what they see a big business is and there's also a trust deficit lilly's businesses done right and elaborate last edition is not helping. so it seems most of the farmers are opposed to these changes are there any farmers that support the bills for the government would definitely people that i definitely promise would not stand to lose to the bits but i would really like more me permission about what i've been all over his dog bill is biden now has got his high rating the fact that liberalizing them up it's basically means that they would be more efficient that are the long run i wouldn't date dual government markets and enough said to last perhaps launched i don't write this just google if you want that it's more than your own are there to destruction of the us can also enter into contracts bombing agreements this can be more beneficial and additional their government is highlighting that little men carry out and these middlemen the dumb how do you keep them down by so that's harming the promise but again the latter being punished that had to wait or to be

that became the lilly ledbetter law. it is now the law of the land, giving protection for women in the workplace. jeff: right. about ask you about, year ago you were at the atlantic festival. if you you on the stage are going to move to impeachment and you said "it is a little too that," thenk about you went up to capitol hill and announced impeachment. you announced in your quiver of to stop donald trump from nominating someone to the supreme court to replace ruth bader ginsburg, that the word impeachment has been floated. is it possible to use impeachment to slow down or stop this coming nomination? speaker pelosi: i don't remember saying that impeachment -- of anrse, impeachment is always arrow in the quiver. i did not reference it in relationship to this. the most important thing we can do in this regard, and i am sad that we have to be talking about great ruthhe theburg is laid to rest -- fact is why the president is in such a rush is he is in a hurry to overturn the affordable care act. oral arguments start novembe

>> eli lilly this is my focus is therapeutic. quincy is bringing out new drinks and ricks.re work to do. more rest for the weary, or the eagles for that matter >> at least we had a good weekend of football. great games yesterday. we'll see you at 6:00. >>> welcome to "squawk on the street." worst level for the dow since august 4th the reopening worries, senate in the uk meet worries about the death of justice ginsburg and the degree to where it complicates efforts of more stimulus >> yeah. it's yet something else thrown in it's more of and more of a focus in the coming weeks, the election and concern, of course, about the election not just the outcome but the actual election itself may start to be reflected more in equity prices to some extent and the concerns about what's going to happen there, melissa we have things to think of the death of ruth bader ginsberg is thrown into that mix as well. take the virus which is surging unfortunately in the uk. we still are obviously dealing with 40,000 cases a day in the u.s. and it's making for a potent mix on the downside for a cha

let's start with eli lilly because they reported some important coronavirus news which basically the's antibody treatment saw reduced rate of hospitalization. so the drugmaker basically said this experimental treatment helps patients clear coronavirus symptoms sooner before they would have need to be hospitalized. eli lilly ceo was on "mornings with maria" and said this. >> in this study not only lowered viral load in patients, improved symptoms, but most importantly, as you said, reduced hospitalization risk by 72% in the study. it's a smaller study. we need to replicate these findings. but this is an important day in the fight against covid. reporter: progress but a lot more to do here. you mentioned pfizer. that is another interesting headlines because they're making headlines for the coronavirus vaccine specifically. the company says some of the patients are showing side-effects in trials. they called them mid to moderate aftereffects. fatigue is one that management mentioned on an investor call. that is something to think about when we do get a vaccine. finally i mention this, t

later this week, the cdd staff will be awarding an award to a pubmed ply owe who west represents lilly who outlook and attitude and professionalism that she was a valued employee. to cut to the chase, we hired a consult apartment to act as a ombuds person bringing someone in from the outside who they could talk to and do that in a confidential way and those conversations generated a lot of data and concerns on different issues. we got a lot of feedback there and that took several months of conversation and it took an action plan to respond to concerns so i'm going to talk about two highlighted areas briefly here, not to take too much time because it's a deep subject. one is the safety culture at cdd and one is about workplace conduct and respectful behavior and if i can have the next slide, please. on the safety front, we basically took a variety of actions to make sure folks were feeling safe in the workplace. reinvigorating safety committee that was a little bit too rote, not enough paying attention to hard, safety issues we made sure all staff were trained and restrained in safety p

the presence of covert team in the other 2 doses did not meet the company's goals on the news eli lilly stock rose 2.6 percent in premarket but has since leveled out now meanwhile the u.s. government outlined a plan wednesday to make coronavirus vaccines free to all americans once a candidate has successfully gained regulatory approval now in a report provided to congress federal health agencies and the department of defense laid out plans for a vaccination campaign to start in january of next year or earlier if at all possible now this plan was quick to point out that this would not be an overnight affair saying while there may be limited supply of 1st the focus will be put on health care workers essential employees and people in boulder will groups so with all of this in mind let's go ahead and take another look at the trends and spread of the virus globally with our t. correspondent side of tablature where are we when read the average less than $70000.00 cases away from hitting $30000000.00 globally now that's globally they're close to a 1000000 right now we had $942000.00 plus now j

competitors roche and eli lilly expect to share theirs later this month >>> sanofi phase three triale treatment shows no improvement. the drug maker said at this time, they will not be entering the drug to further study. this shouldn't come as a major surprise given their partner revealed similar findings in july this is sanofi weighing in on trials outside of the u.s. astrazeneca in focus today in the u.s., 30,000 adults will be given the potential inauk u lags already in final stage testing in the uk with preliminary results expected shar shares trading .4% higher this morning. >>> maersk announces major restructuring. >>> siemens to announce a spinoff. more than half will be automatically linked to group share holders on the 28th of september. now joining us with more talk us through how the spinoff through the broader strategy and this unit that is set to spin out >> it is a natural step to spin off the energy business. we've seen a successful spin off with health care business where they made the big acquisition in the state for siemens using the balance sheet to be able to actu

a focal point in this pandemic to try to treat covid-19 we saw data this morning that a drug from lillyshown in an nih trial was shown to shorten recovery time when added to remdesivir you showed remdesivir could shorten recovery from 11 days 15 days to 11 hospitals aren't using remdesivir they only accepted 3/4 of what was offered to them. tell us how that drug was doing. >> sure. very proud to be part of this devastating pandemic and a piece of the puzzle. my colleagues in the research space are focused on improving outcomes for patients and eliminating this disease on the supply side, there's news out about that, because of the moves we took in january before we ever knew this was going to be successful, i'm happy to say that as of today we have more than sufficient supply for patients in the u.s. that have the misfortune of being hospitalized as of october we'll have enough to support the rest of the world in real time demand. that's important for the winter season on the clinical data side, we've done three gold standard trials. all of them consistent particularly if it's used earl

the second one this week from eli lilly that shows an effect.ust said in 450 people studied decreased the risk of hospitalization from 6% to less than 2%. a big drop when you think about it. it decreases the amount of circulating virus. it showed in the people studied 450. antibodies are made when you get better from covid-19. i talked to the head of the fda this morning and he is very encouraged by the use of convalescent plasma in over 100,000 patients so far. when it comes to this treatment he thinks it is promising as a bridge to a vaccine. if we can get it to work properly, it can get us over decreasing hospitalizations while we wait for the vaccine. >> trace: you talked about the numbers there. i want to put these on the screen so we can give our audience some context. these are taking it the people here 1.7% of the patients who got the drug were hospitalized versus 6% taking placebo. we'll do the math for you, a 72% reduction in risk. that is a huge thing. the question becomes how fast can we get this stuff to market if it's approved and

you know, eli lilly has one that had results already and they're talking with regulators. if these could become available based on the early results, they could possibly be had out there sooner than vaccines or available to, you know, potentially different groups of people than vaccine was initially be available to or just expand the number of omg options we have. we're going to have to see what the regulators say about both these data and eli lilly and they're continuing with their trials to get more information this could guf ive us an arrow against the coronavirus. >> may i just quickly say, sara, as we thank meg for joining us, there are no two better people in the world to be discussing this breaking news than the two of you both completely up to speed. >> meg knows this has been one of the treatments that people were so excited for. and hopeful for. and so i've been following ut very carefully i know jim cramer has also been following it carefully he knows regeneron they spoke to lily this is so important, paul, right, when it comes to -- investors have to pay attent

. >> reporter: heard dissent in ledbetter versus goodyear tire was a precursor for the lilly ledbetter fair pay act which congress passed into law in 2009 to address the perceived pay gap between men and women but she suffered losses too. in an interview with new republic she said if she could overrule one decision it would be the 2010 citizens united ruling that allowed corporations and unions to financially support candidates running for office. ginsburg said, quote, the notion that we have all the democracy that money can buy straight so far from what our democracy is supposed to be so that is number one on my list. in her personal life ginsburg battled three separate cancer diagnoses. in 1999 it was colon cancer. a decade later pancreatic cancer and in 2018 she underwent lung cancer surgery, each time she was out of the hospital within days. >> my colleagues so rallied around me and made it possible for me to go on and not miss a day in court. >> reporter: outside of court ginsburg loved the opera, passion she shared with conservative justice antonin scalia and famously serenaded b

i was in court when you argue to the lilly ledbetter case so i remember those questions as well. you were too modest to mention you prevailed in the case. mostrecipitated one of her famous dissents from the bench that and term prompted congressional action -- in turn prompted congressional action that was part of the remarkable leadership she provided to the court's liberal wing, especially in her last years on the court, and really had such a broad view of her role and cases inot just to win court for her side, but also in a case like that, to prompt congressional reaction. it was a remarkable case. point about the dedication to her craft under difficult physical circumstances . to argue invilege front of her every time. her arduous work habits put you not just through your paces but made you a better lawyer. if you did not know the record backwards and forwards, you knew she would. so it definitely kept you working hard late in the night getting ready for arguments because you knew she was working late in the night getting ready to ask you questions, including potentially thing

to equate the idea of poor people and for the president that's code for minorities coming into the lilly white suburbs and destroying these bedroom communities. obviously it is not quite like that in reality but that is the argument that he's making. it is a very purely political argument and has not worked for him in the past. the reason he is being so blatant about trying to win back the suburbs is because he's seen what's happened since 2016 and 2018, the suburbs were the strongest sort of pushback against his presidency as republicans and moderates and suburbs went against his campaigning. they essentially sided with democrats. they ousted a bunch of house republicans and put in new democrats in gubernatorial seats all across the country and the president sees that. he sees the writing on the wall. now he is trying to scare the suburban voters into coming back to his camp. there are not a lot of indication that it's working but he is not slowing down on his efforts to scare suburban voters back into his camp. >> amanda, i think it is interesting because i've had very similar thoughts

eli lilly & company and u.s. bank.p, bill and belinda gates foundation, exxonmobil, nestle water america and paypal. >> please welcome atlantic staff writer, shirley lee. >> balancing parenting and work is difficult during the best of times, but a global pandemic introduces challenges none of us could have expected. i am pleased to be joined by aisha curry, juggling work while dealing with child care. thank you for being with us this evening. >> thank you so much for having me, i'm excited to be here. >> of course. so i know you have a lot going on at the moment. your book is on shelves this week, and you just announced you're starting a production company. but i want to focus on life at home first. so obviously, you and stephen have become parenting role models, what are the challenges as a parent during the pandemic? >> i would definitely say like life is chaotic right now, as i'm sure it is for everyone, parent or not. but for us, i feel like our parenting style has always been especially now a little bit relaxed. o

and equal pay, lilly ledbetter. >> right., you know, women couldn't get credit even if they made more money than their husbands. it was only the husband's salary or assets that counted until she began her crusade. there were just hundreds and hundreds of laws on the books that were, by and large, the relic of an era gone by. but society and the legal profession hadn't caught one it. the laws hadn't caught up with it. and she sort of forced the reality of modern life on to the supreme court. she even, you know, one of her great regrets in the area of reproductive rights is that she had a case representing a woman in the military who was -- you seem to have a phone problem today, andrea. sorry. >> that's all right. everybody's at home, we all know that. >> who -- who was being, at that point, the military forced women to have an abortion if they wanted to stay in the military. she didn't want to have an abortion. and justice ginsburg, then lawyer ginsburg, wanted to take that case to the supreme court to stand for the idea that
