just last month booting chemical publish the findings of several mrna researchers. in this paper we present evidence that vaccination reduces a profound impairment in type one signaling which has adverse consequences to human health. while it seems a guideline did you read that in "the new york times"? it seems kind of weird since hundreds of billions of people got the shot. the researchers continued that in their studies the covid vaccine we identified potential profound disturbances and regulatory controls, protein synthesis and cancer. these disturbances potentially have a link to neurodegenerative disease. liver disease and immunity, impaired dna response. et cetera. it's possible the fact it's looking likely that the vaccine might suppress the immune system. this fact the authors concluded will have a wide range of consequences not the least of which include the deactivation of latent viral infections and reduced ability to effectively combat future infection. again, we can sincerely hope that is not true, but is not just the conclusion of one scientific journa

the big benefits is for those people who have an allergy to mrna vaccines. or who wanted to have something less novel. because the mrna vaccine certainly is very novel this is a more traditional way of making vaccines . >> and novavax one of those projects funded by operation workspeed . out of texas, good morning, go ahead. >> caleb, you've got to hit the button. >> good morning. wanted to let you know amdoctor george, i haven't brushed my teeth in almost 3 years to try to build a tolerance to microbes. and when i got covid i got it pretty bad but i recovered within threeweeks longer but i feel like i have some immunity because of not brushing my teeth . >> i don't think the two are related. first of all, i'm glad that you recovered. but there are a lot of i people who don't. 22,000 people get a bad case and many of them don't want to die particularly people with underlying diseases so i encourage people to get vaccinated and even though you have covid our h recommendation is still that you should get the full vaccination series. >> the previous color talk

we know that's more like a traditional vaccine than the newer mrna vaccines that we've seen with pfizer, moderna. so i do wonder. i think there is some thinking that people who are skeptical of the mrna vaccines might consider novavax. but could it be that people who are not willing to get vaccinated simply aren't there? are you optimistic than, that they might consider this? >> no. i think that are people who are not going to get vaccinated, regardless of what vaccine you give them. but there may be a few who might. i see that novavax really helping add to the arsenal of vaccines around the world. there is already a generic plant in india making lots of novavax. it's easier to store. and i think once available for boosters, not available for yet. just for primary series for the fda approval. people may want to mix and match, because this is a very different vaccine. you may get a bigger repertoire of antibodies. but you're right, sara. at the end of the day, i think it will be very difficult to convince that 15 to 20% of americans who haven't been vaccinated to get vaccines with anythi

is it mrna or is it more of a traditional vaccine?poppy, this is an interesting vaccine. it is not an mrna vaccine and it doesn't use an adenovirus vector. it is a vaccine constructed of spike proteins that are grown in moth cells. so what the company has done is basically infect a virus, insert into a virus the genes for the spike protein for the coronavirus. they then infect moth cells with that, the moth cells act as the factory to create spike proteins. the spike proteins are then harvested and constructed into particles that resemble the coronavirus, but do not have the ability to cause illness in humans. what it will do is create an immune response. and it is combined with an extract from a tree bark that actually boosts the immune response. and in studies conducted last year, it was quite effective at preventing severe illness and -- or even symptomatic illness. but most of the trials were done in the pre-delta, pre-omicron. it is an effective vaccine. i'm not sure what the group of people is who will now get it, but i think we

everyone knows what mrna, you send a code to the sale and it makes a spike protein your body makes antibodies to. in novavax, they go a step further. they are chopping up bits of the spike protein and antibody aches antibodies to it. so it is using the protein already made, antibody gets the signal. the reason why people are looking at this is first of all it gives an alternative to people who might have had a bad side effect with previous vaccine. but most importantly it may give a reason for the 25 million americans who still have not gotten vaccinated to potentially get one. kristen: a new study concerns covid vaccines and women's menstrual cycle. what does that tell us? guest: we might have even talked about this during the last year. people who have been getting the vaccines from covid reported heavier bleeding, irregular periods for a short time, maybe one or two cycles. i think what the study does is really validates all of that and is in orton to disclose what might happen and people want to get worried. they looked at almost 40,000 people around the world after the vaccine and about

part of the reason we got the mrna vaccines as quickly as we did is because we invested billions andof dollars in getting those into those large trials that got them into our arms. and then out into the public sphere. right now, things like that pill, like nasal sprays, most of those are in pre-human trials or in very small phase one human trials. they need to go through those large phase two trials and then the phase three before they can get fda approval. so we have a ways to go still. in a best case scenario, months, but if we don't see more money coming, it could be much longer than that. >> dr. megan ranney, thank you so much. >> the next story is wild. people say a woman spent two years in a coma. she woke up and blamed her brother for putting her in the coma by attacking her with an ax. police have now taken her brother into custody. let's just say that didn't go so well. when you have technology thatat's easier to control... that can scale across all your clouds... we got that right? yeah, we got that. it's easier to be an innovator. so you can do more incredible things.

now, novavax uses different technology compared to those developed with mrna, pfizer, moderna.nt. joining me now to discuss is the white house covid-19 response coordinator, dr. ashish jha. doctor, good to have you back. listen, let's start with two maps here. the first one shows the level of community transmission across the country right now. the presence of covid almost all red across the country, the second map shows the strain on hospitals and health care systems, plenty of red here, but we're not seeing the reimplementation of masking mandates or any major mitigation measures. is now the time to do that? >> yes, victor, first of all, thanks for having me back. you're absolutely right. there are a lot of infections out there, about 120, 130,000 cases, but we think that's a substantial under count, hundreds of thousands of infections every day. hospitalizations and particularly deaths are relatively low relative to other surges. i do think people should be doing things to reduce risk of infection, so i think if you're in a crowded indoor space, i think wearing a mask is cle

could give longer, more durable protection and i think that may be possible with possibly moving past mrnaechnologies and then advance towards a universal coronavirus vaccine over the next year or two. for now i think it's all hands on deck looking after the president. everyone is saying, you know, because he's doubly boosted he's out of the woods. you know, i think you have to be careful about that. it's true we don't see high mortality but he could get sick based on the vaccine effectiveness we've seen coming out of the cdc. hopefully the paxlovid treatment will do a lot to mitigation against that. >> we all hope that is for sure. dr. peter hotez, we thank you. appreciate it. want to bring in now congressman raja and a member of the house intelligence committee. congressman, thanks for joining us on this and your reaction on learning of the news that the president has, in fact, tested positive for covid. >> well, i wish him a speedy recovery. i had covid earlier this year and i know that it's not fun, but in his case i'm told that they're mild symptoms, seems like he's tired and he's got

next two months to year in terms of recommending for boosters, do we try to make a variant specific mrnalear questions. a lot of unclear answers to very important questions. >> very, very much so. before i let you go, dr.. there's another doctor in the news. monkeypox, the world test -- world health organization announced today that it's a global emergency. we've had nearly 3000 cases in 45 states here at home. at least two of those cases are children. who are more likely to die. tell us, before you leave us today, but we need to know about monkeypox and the risk of contracting it. >> the trajectory, is pretty steep, we've already got more than 15, 16,000 cases globally. that's probably a underestimate by a factor of who knows wet. there's probably many more cases. it's accelerating on a specific social network of men who have sex with men. not because it's sexually transmitted, but it's just gotten into that social network to begin with. the concern is it could expand to other vulnerable population. kids, those who are immunocompromised. we've already had to covid -- two kids infected.

older following the fda clearance last week, unlike fighter and moderna's vaccines, which use newer mrnatechnology , the novavax formula is created using a more conventional protein method. according to the cdc, between 26 37 million u. s. adults still remain completely unvaccinated against covid-19. however health officials hope the novavax formula just might encourage more to roll up their sleeves. meanwhile large wave of individuals who have survived their severe covid-19 illness and are now experiencing impairments that again might last for months to years after their recovery, health officials are pointing to covid-19 survivors like 41 year old freddy fernandez, who are still battling lingering complications from the virus, even after it almost killed him numerous times. he had told us like 5 to 6 times, you know, go talk to him. pretty much letting us know how you say your goodbyes. besides breathing and lung problems, medical experts say many survivors who were hospitalized with covid 19 are suffering from more neuropsychological challenges. seeing patients with ptsd type symptoms

it could appeal to those people who had concerns about the mrna technology used by pfizer and moderna. >> lawmakers say that long covid is probably affected millions of americans at this point causing a lot of serious health problems and some of those people have been forced out of the workplace. today. the committee tasked with overseeing the federal response to the pandemic examined what else congress could do to help these patients? our washington correspondent jessi tenure reports. >> i knew i was dying. i begged for help. >> covid-19 patients tell congress they remain disabled, chronically ill and undertreated years after they have the virus. they still have difficulty driving reading and walking and i still have not recovered. doctor monica verduzco gutierrez has treated about 500 long-covid patients like this but says others don't make it to their appointment, not because they got better, but because they got worse produce go gutierrez ones. millions of long covid patients nationwide still face one key issue. there's not a way for me as a physician to diagnose long covid. >> ba

now, the good news is, is, the mrna platform that is, that underlies moderna and pfizer vaccines cantooled very quickly. but, ultimately, judy, while we can make changes and try to keep up with the virus, the long-term victory against this virus is about building vaccines that are resistant to variants. that science is coming along. we're tracking that closely, doing everything we can to accelerate that. that's the long game. in the short to medium term, we have got to keep updating the vaccines and do our best to keep up with the virus. judy: we noticed, dr. jha, you said in recent days that, because congress has not voted sufficient additional funding, there's not going to be enough money to provide sufficient vaccines for the rest of this year. is that still the case? dr. jha: yes, we have taken money from other critical programs to make sure we have enough resources to buy at least some vaccines. i'm confident we will have enough vaccines for all high-risk individuals. i want to make sure we have enough vaccines for every american who wants one. we do not have the resources for t

this would give americans another alternative to mrna vaccines, more than three-quarters of americanst least one shot of any covid vaccine and experts say that is helping to keep severe disease relatively low, even though the highly- contagious omicron sub-variant ba .5 is driving most new infections, new infections now averaging more than 100,000 per day. >> i think it's going to be increasingly unlikely even with these more contagious variants that you see anything like what we saw in earlier areas of the pandemic. reporter: nearly three-quarters of americans live in communities with high or medium covid risk. high risk areas include new york city which is once again urging residents to wear high-quality masks in indoor public settings, and outdoor crowds. public health officials say because vaccines can't prevent all covid infections, masks can be part of a layered approach to reducing the spread. of course the idea of having the mask up again is getting mixed reviews from residents, but again, we should point out this is a recommendation, not a mandate in new york city. lauren bac

made appeal to folks who are worried about mrna it is highly effective on comparable to the other vaccines. but much of the work was done before these new variants. however, given the fact that they're very similar in the same time when on the vaccines were a many people believe that they're going to be just as good. it's going to give a great option for individuals, particularly those who are a little bit worried a new technology. >> and doctor, despite the increase in the spread of covid with these new variants, there's still no signs of shutdowns. people are actually increasing their travel plans of people are still very much dying from this virus. so what are your doctor's orders here? what's the best way we can keep ourselves and each other safe? >> well, that's a really question, stephanie, because, you know, i'm in the hospital and seeing 2 groups of people really those who are not vaccinated or maybe that will then not do said they're getting very, very sick. just like 2020. but on the other hand, we're seeing a lot of people would just like in the community that coming in for some

but the data are pouring in that there are harms to young adults, to kids, to babies from these mrna injections. you mentioned the extended bleeding that young women are reporting. i platform two years ago for being one of the first people to report about that side effect. young men are also suffering from heart damage. pericarditis, myocarditis. wewe have 3000 experts, medical and scientific experts reading through the 55000le pfizer documents released under court order that the fdaat asked the court to keep hidden for 75 years and they found that the fda knew and pfizer knew that 35 teenagers, minors had permanent heart damage within a week after receiving these mirinae injections. so it is madness. i haven't even gone into the child. the baby'sto are having seizures because vaccinated mothers have polyethylene glycol in their milk. it's a petroleum byproduct in the injections or the israeli journalists who found that 56 babies went into multi organ system failure, seizures, respiratory collapse after being injected by these vaccines. so it is it is catastrophic. it's a massive cri

unlike the leading covid vaccines which use mrna to manufacture proteins that cause an immune response the us for 30 years, how our flu vaccines work so the cdc advisors are hoping that will reassure some covid vaccine hold outs who have been skeptical of the newer technology. >> primary target population will be the 10% to 13% of those who are unvaccinated, that's the only indication right now. understand we really need to focus on that population. >> reporter: health officials are urging all americans over 50 who have not received a primary covid shot or booster sometime in the year 2,022 to get one now to reduce chances of hospitalization from the look on sub variant ba 5 which is responsible for four of every five active us cases. pfizer and motor and are developing booster shots the target homework on variants with several health officials say getting a conventional covid shot will not preclude you from getting in a look on specific booster in the fall so they are urging everyone who is not currently up to date on their vaccines to get their shots without further delay. neil: a qu
