how willtate to state, that impact a major pandemic? : the decentralization of health care means there is a huge variation in how different states are ready to cope with these kinds of diseases. theeporting out went to university of nebraska medical center which is probably the best repaired place for diseases like ebola or sars, deadly infections we know very little about. theyhey are ready because have had very, very thoughtful and visionary leaders who have facilities in place, long before those threats were actually manifesting at our doorstep, and they kept those facilities ready , even though they were largely dormant for years. i think it is that kind of commitment in the face of other and with the absence of any immediate threat, that is systemin a health care in which it is very difficult to get everyone on the same page. preparedness basically boils down to individual wills. it boils down to whether this hospital and this administrator take the steps necessary to be ready for future threats or not. situation butbest it is unfo

when we talk about is the 1918 pandemic. it is likely it would be an influenza but if not influenza, and influenza like --an influenza like respiratory virus. influenza or something like influenza is the one that keeps me up at night. article says the next leg coming is america ready. is that the biggest concern now? guest: i think so. we never know what is going to come next. diseases have a history of taking us by surprise. it was sweeping around the world. the threat that keeps people of that night. just because of its ability to involvesnd the fact it . flu is an odd one. we can make vaccines. we have surveillance networks. but even in 2009, all of that infrastructure was not able to prevent a pandemic. even this year, the regular non-pandemic seasonal flu stretched america's health care system fan. harbinger ofing what can happen. host: carol, what is your question? caller: i have a couple comments. jesse, i have not been on with you and i thank you for having me on. thanks for this program. my first question is how far

it wasn't just that, there have been other pandemics, not nearly as catastrophic at 19, but truly pandemics. in 1957, 1968 then in the 2009, the first pandemic of the 21st century, the famous swine flu, which we saw with an h1n1. what is the status in 2018 and why is this the introduction of why we think not only think, we know we need a universal flu vaccine. there are three things about influenza that i refer to depending on the audience as suboptimum, really not so good or bad. every time i show this slide, i get multiple e-mails. it's always better to get vaccinated than not. why? because some protection is always better than no protection. having said that, having seens are not consistently effective sochlt if you look at these graphs, on a good year, the effectiveness is about 60%. on a really bad year, it's anywhere from zero to 10%. we need to do bett tat. the other thing is that historically, pandemics do occur. and responding to the pandemic after the fact is generally not effective given the way we make and distribute vaccines. so this is 2009. as we were all looking at china for

with pandemic's, -- with pandemics all the population of the world is susceptible. the rest of -- the threat of pandemic is at the top of the list. >> my number 1 and maybe number 2 and number 3 is influenza also. i agree for the reasons that she mentioned. when you have a respiratory virus that can be threadlike -- spread by droplets and aerosol and have a situation with a degree of morbidity, you can have a catastrophe. we have experienced in the real world those types of things. we always talk about 1918 pandemic that killed 50 and 100 million people. it's likely that it would be an influence of. but it is not an influenza-like respiratory virus. we had a scare with sars and they were able to contain it. but something like influenza is what keeps me up at night. >> i would say the threat that would keep me up at night would be unknown. if we don't know what that threat may be we have to be able to anticipate. >> for each witness, what area of bio preparedness is at the highest rarity? >> -- priority? >> the ability to rapidly detect something that has entered our

so that's where the reauthorization of the pandemic law preparedness act comes in. it was adopted in 2006 and set to expire at the end of september. we intend to move forward with legislation prior to that. our health subcommittee most last tweak consider a bipartisan constitution draft reauthorizes the law and continues to fine tune its. it's critically important congress rethat ares the law and that all members of government are prepared for chemical attacks, cyber security incidents and mass casualty events through let'ses, hearings and investigations the committee as raised numerous issues regarding biological threats to the u.s. and the nation's ability to respond. for example the committee has examined concerned be that's cdc management and the security of the strategic national stockpile and the capabilities of cdc laboratory response network. trump administration set to transfer management of the stockpile from the cdc to the assistant secretaries for preparedness and response, known as aspr and we look forward to hearing more details. another area of intere

and with a pandemics, all of the population of the world can be susceptible. so the threat of a pandemic has to be at the top of the list. ecause it can all happen fast. mr. fauci: my number one and maybe number two and number three is influenza also. i agree. for the reasons that dr. schuchat has mentioned. when you have a respiratory virus that can be spread by droplets and aerosol, and then you have a situation, if there's a degree of morbidity associated with that, you can have a catastrophe. i mean, we've experienced in real-world those types of thirnings the one that we always talk about is the 1918 pandemic which killed between 50 million and 100 million people. it is likely that it would be an influenza. but if not influenza, an influenza-like respiratory virus. i mean, we had a scare with sars. fortunately public health measures were title of the bill contain it. but influenza first or something like influenza is the one that keeps me up at night. ms. hinton: thank you for the question. i would say the threat that would keep me up at night would be th

so, that's where the reauthorization of the pandemical hazards act. it was in 2006 and set to expire the end of september and we intend to move forward with lap legislation prior to that. to reauthorize this hoo law and fine tune it. it's important that congress reauthorizes this law in time and make sure that all levels of government are well-equipped to handle not only emerging biothreats, but chemical attacks, radiological, and mass casualties events. the committee has raised numerous issues regarding biological threats to the u.s. and our nation's ability to respond to infectious disease outbreaks. for example, the committee examined concerns about the c.d.c.'s management and the security of the strategic national stockpile and the capabilities of c.d.c. laboratory response network. the trump administration is set to transfer from the stockpile to the response known as asper. and how this will work. and our biosurveillance capabilities, innovation could look at our response in the event of an attack or epidemic. i'll be looking forward to that. th

and i wanted to know, we be using that model in the future for other pandemics? and other risks that we might run into, we are part of the work at emory university and is a great example of what we can do in the future. dr. schuchat? >> cdc benefits tremendously and there's a close working relationship. we were fortunate they did such a terrific job in the ebola and care of the patients there. there is ongoing collaboration and communication and support. i think they may have more in the hospitals in the care of citations and doctor bright might want to comment. >> yes, i also want to be sure we capitalize and not lose that extra lessons learned from emory university. as you may know, we stood up in national ebola training and education center. the space in nebraska is in collaboration with emory university. and it is an example of the finest educational centers on ebola and other epidemic treatments in the world now. >> again, i thank all of you for the work you do.extremely important and especially a shout out to the cdc and the work they do. thank you. i yield

the largest response to a single disease in history tackling the global aids pandemic had on. today we also recognize also red congress have gone before us. congressman lantos, and those who continue to lead the fight against this disease now into the future. senator daschle, i want to thank you for your leadership o leade, passion, dedication, it's been a remarkable journey to do good, to do well, to demonstrate the best of who we are. so please join me in paying tribute to a great american leader, senator tom daschle in the role congress plays in tackling the crisis. [applause] ' thank you, senator. as we commemorate america's signature on global hiv and aids program, we would be remiss to not honor the man that started it all, president george w. bush. as we know, it was his leadership, first of the state of the union address in 2003 as i mentioned about throughout his presidency as well and in his postpresidential life with first lady laura bush that rallied the congress and the nation and in many ways the world to this cause. it was because of his leadership and compassio

bill gates has often warned about are we rdy for the larger global pandemic.e has talked about it. there was a spanish influenza of this century in a matter of a short amount of time, 30 million people could die in less than a year. are we ready? has pepfar taught us how to make sure we invest in health security systems? we could have an hour or more just on this topic alone, but just in a few minutes, talk about what pepfar lessons learned in investing in global health systems. >> yeah, well, very much so. that's an excellent question. when i get ask in my other hat of non-hiv responding to ebola, responding to zika, i use the pepfar model, really, as a model of what happens when you go into a place and part thaer winer wi country and help develop sustainable infrastructure and health systems. countries that have those health systems can respond. i think the classic example of what happened in west africa with guinea, liberia, and sierra leone, that that country was devastated -- >> around ebola. >> -- for so many reasons, around ebola. and when others came i

it would be impossible to overstate the devastation caused by the blades pandemic. then we say in the letter in december the us initiative to consist of new monies and policies that complement existing us programs in additional to the millennial challenge at hand and then we say you will have a strong support and the support of the american people for a bold, new initiative to save family communities affected by the aids crisis to extend the parent-child relationship and secure the future of young people. we suggested that he say something in the state of the union of about this bold initiative. this is what i want to make sure that was in the record because every member of the congressional black caucus sinus. we felt very proud and to listen to state of the union when we announced the 15 at the state of the union in 2003 we knew we were working together to make sure that we would save the millions of lives. >> there is 40 million people's lives.

and the open-air vaccine test the chinese conduct around that time and you have worldwide pandemic which for reasons we get into with interest, the panel, you all, clearly doesn't arise from a natural cause but rather interactions of technology, and to highlight two aspects of this, diagnostic, is this a right picture of the world? should we be worried about this in the way that i described and it is prescriptive, what is it we ought to do about this. the intent is not to have presentation from these skilled experts but to have a discussion among the poor laws and i encourage this trio, you probably don't need much encouragement, as hopefuy finding things they like in this report. we decided amongst ourselves with gen. cartwright, the most courageous of the four of us. >> this discussion is imrt he fnt end early into the game as possible and should probably be redone on multiple occasions as new technologies are introduced. i think for me, the experience side of the equation, the one area that has to be explored a little more was given opportunity and favor but the risk is a continuum an

issues that would benefit from that type of global agreement and just to name a couple with the pandemichat architecture that could save millions of lives if you could replicate that global coalition with information sharing with the paris agreement related to global health security i think there is a similar effort we tried to get out with refugee settlement that is the project to say how you deal with the crisis where you have a small number of countries for bearing an enormous amount of the burden that then politically i still feel like the united states the region i was most interested in and i feel like there is a lot of room to significantly enhance the integration between the united states and the cooperation between southeast asia and like to try to approach that a regional mindset. but to be opportunistic to see where the opportunity could emerge. it's probably too late to do anything like sri lanka or a democratic transition to get more engagement. that is important or our values but also to back up huge parts of the world. so opportunistically but the movement gaining momentum

currently, we're also dealing with the ongoing weaponized parasitical pandemic with the aluminum dust and the -- what's that call the morgallenes in our food, body, our air in the weaponized parasitical assault. they enter the body and end up creating with all the aluminum already in us, we become receptacles for antennas which is why they can control people's mind especially people stressed or troubled or what have you a little bit more easily. operation crimson mist was used in uganda and chicago and berkeley and ferguson and more so. there's plenty of people who know all this is true. san francisco had a $500 million lawsuit regarding a psychotronic attack that was accepted by the first judge on its merit and psychotronic energy weapon was designed to blow out mayor lee's heart for cause, okay. you can look the information up and look up the revolution radio archives of which a lot of information is there. so i'll finish by saying under the big money and guys of better reception, they demand you deny and ignore the obviousness and overwhelming attempt for succession for they've bee

either way, you have a worldwide pandemic, which for reasons we can get into but the panel and you all can clearly doesn't arise from a natural cause, but rather the interaction. the paper lays out recommendations about what to do with all of those and we can get into that in discussion. i'd like in thecussion to really highlight to ats this. one is diagnostic. is this the right picture of the world? should we be worried about this in the way i described in the second is prescriptive. what is a that we ought to do about this? so our intent really is not to have presentation frenzies are a very skilled expert, there really to have a discussion amongst the four of us. i'm encouraged this trio and if you know this trio, you probably don't need much encouragement, to be critical as i was hopefully finding some things they like in this report. we will go back and forth between one another. we decided amongst ourselves general cartwright would start. >> on the knuckle dragger. they think, you know, this discussion is important to get at the front end, early into the game and they should prob

either way, you have a worldwide pandemic which for reasons we can get into if it interests the panel and you all, pretty clearly doesn't arise from natural cause, but rather from these interactions of technology. the paper lays out some recommendations about what to do about all this,can and get into that in the discussion. so i'd like in the discussion to really highlight two aspects of this. one is diagnostic. is this a right picture of the world? should we be worried about this in the way that i described? and then the second is prescriptive. what is it that we ought to do about this? so our intent really is not to have presentation from these three very skilled experts, but really to have a discussion amongst the four of us, and i have encouraged this trio and if you know this trio, you know they probably don't need much encouragement to be critical as well as hopefully finding some things they like in this report, and we'll go back and forth between one another. we decided amongst ourselves that general cartwright would start because he's the most courageous of the four of us. [

so dealing with pandemics that you would try to set up is truly global to say ultimately in the longn if you could replicate the global coalition and arrangement, that would be developed in the paris agreement to the global health security that comes to me off the top of my head. with that effort around refugee settlement systematize how you do with our refugee crisis with countries bearing such an enormous amount of a burden. then politically, i still feel like the united states, the region i was most interested is southeast asia and i feel like there was a lot of room to significantly enhance the integration between the united states and southeast asia that i would like us to try to approach not an individual country but with the regional mindset. but you have to be opportunistic to look where the opportunity could emerge. late in the administration it was too late to do anything like sri lanka with the democratic transition and if we had more time we may have tried to and those that are important for our values but also with china trying to come off those parts of the world. so yo

everybody else had done bombed and we were the one country that had not suffered any civilian war pandemico we were huge portion of the world and we could afford to be generous. over the last 25 years that has all disappeared. we have agreed to work with the chinese and to let them into the world trade organization with the hopes that they would become part of a rules-based modern system. the director of national intelligence under obama not under trump said two years ago the chinese stole $460 billion in intellectual property in one year. that's more than our total sales in china. trump is taking the position that we are going to defend that intellectual property. that's going to lead to friction. he's taken the position that if they put a 2.5% tariffs on cars th chinese put a tariffs on cars. we are not going to play a game where you charge 10 times as much as we do. that's going to lead to friction. people need to understand this but if you have an american president who puts america first instead of putting some kind of fake world global system first that can create tension first becau

but what we do know for sure is it's another example of a gun violence pandemic that our society is maddeningg to accept. it is a fact that there has been no meaningful legislation in congress to stop the shootings. so more dead. more lives shattered, more proof that we have a problem. also more reason to do something to stop the damn shootings. now the shooting taken together with the kids stranded at the border and the political punch fest that we're suffering, all lead us to the same problem. those kids torn from parents, dumped all over the country, the harshness of that move, the lies about fixing it, the slow fade of interest in our society about it. the empty calls for civility. why empty? because they're mostly made for those who decidedly uncivil. yeah, i'm talking about the president. those around him who excuse and empower his talk. his immediate friends that echo and reward it. the idea of suggesting today that this shooting is to be blamed on the left is as baseless, unproductive and frankly stupid as it is to point to the other side. and this guidance goes for those who oppose t

preparedness for potential biological attacks, pandemics and infectious disease outbreaks. a house energy and commerce subcommittee heard from doctors anthony fouchy, the director over in national institute of allergy and infectious diseases among others and discuss some of the potential health security threats along with vaccine development and the management of the strategic national stockpile of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies that could be used during a public health emergency. greg harper chairs the hearing. fouch. >> today the subcommittee continues the long-standing oversight of the u.s. public health system's preparedness to respond to biological threats and emerging infectious defenses. the person othe hearing is to hear from the top public health experts on their work to protect the public and explore
