so, in 2438 test i matches, patel isjust the third man matches, patel is just the third man to take allse to show you these wonderful archived photos. the ashes test matches at old trafford, leica took nine wickets in the first innings, ten in the second, 19 in the match and that remains a record as well and the plaudits have been coming in from all over the world. quick to congratulate patel sane, welcome to the club, a special effort to achieve it on day one and two of a test match. however, it looks like it is all going to be in vain as new zealand were skittled forjust 62 in reply. ajaz patel was zero not out in that one, so new zealand 332 runs behind heading for defeat on the third day, but regardless of the outcome, this will always be patel test match. eileen ash, the world's oldest former test cricketer, has died at the age of 110. the bowler played seven matches for england either side of the second world war and rang the lord's bell ahead of the women's world cup final in 2017. former england captain clare connor, who is now the ecb managing director of women's cricket, said

patel. make sure you have an extra one of these when you travel in your suitcase, that's that's swagger. that is swagger. all right, let's get to our game right now. basically for anybody who has not played what you do is you try and figure out which are the truths which are the lies so take it away. dion you're in the hot seat. so everyone out there tell me which one of these headlines is not true looking from the top. is it a early studies suggests pax levid pfizer's antiviral pill is likely to work against the omicron variant with an eua expected soon, or is it b while omicron can evade antibodies lab data suggests t cells still recognize and respond to the variant or is it c a showing of chicago on broadway was canceled after the audience was already. in their seats. oh boy, which one of these is not true. okay. this is a lot to unload. so i want everybody to take a moment. look at your screen if you are joining us on facebook, please let us know your response your answer to which are th

patel. >> we are matching, kind of. kristen: we are simpatico. let's start with -- two truth and aa lie -- and a lie. >> tell me which one is not true. as of december or is it b, two studies came out this week suggesting omicron was -- omicron causes less severe disease than delta or is it c, the best day is to test before how -- ha is true. it is either a or c. i think san francisco's hospitalizations from covid is lower than 36. and i think that the best time to test for omicron is either the day before a gathering or the day of, in fact day of could be best. it is a or c and because you are so tricky that way, our viewers, betty says c, carla says c but a lot of smart people are also saying a including lisa, betty. oh my goodness. i'm going with a is the lie because i think it is fewer than 36 hospitalizations in san francisco. >> everyone said c. and you said a. kristen: half the people said a. as of december hospital capacity still looks ok and we are always looking at the rise in cases to see if that translates into hospitalizations because

patel. so much confusion over the cdc's new guidelines shortening quarantine procedures for those with covid and exposed to it. i want to read what a senior health official told "the washington post." they worried that the sheer volumes of infections could mean that tens of thousands of police, firefighters, grocery workers, and other essential employees would be out of work, making it challenging to keep society functioning. even though many of the infections would be mild or produce no symptoms. and the officials said, look, obviously, there's great legitimacy to that. we're seeing it play out all across the country. are you concerned at all that economic pressures could push decisions that maybe aren't based on as much science as they should? >> absolutely. chris, especially, when there's not a testing requirement. look, i'm one of those people, if i were sick and i had a mile infection, i too would probably want to get back to work, because my colleagues having to pick up any slack, it's

kavita patel. dr. patel, thank you for joining us. i want to reiterate for everybody out there, we're seeing this giant spike in cases, you probably know a handful of people at least who are sick right now. employers are having a very hard time keeping staffs in place. that being said, i don't want to lose sight of the hospitalization rate and the death rate, which actually dropped yesterday. >> yes, katy, i think you're bringing up an important point. we could reach very easily, and i think in reality we probably have a million cases per day in the united states alone because we're undercounting. we're not testing everyone and people are getting at-home tests. having said that, you're pointing out that we are not at the same hospitalization rates we were a year ago or even six months ago. and that's because of vaccination. we have less degree of hospitalizations, meaning we may have a lot more numbers of hospitalizations and hospitals right now feel like we're being held together by duct tape. that's because of the staffing issues. t

patel, take me through the studies that were released today. i think some of what's going on with kids is exactly what you described, the resistance, the hesitancy, some of the politically influenced hardening against vaccines. but 1% is much less than the adult population that's vaccinated. it is more than that. for any parent who thinks this is a damned if you do, damned if you don't, the poib of the study is that that's not true. i want to read this. many of the roughly 43,000 children surveyed report pain at the side of the shot, fatigue or a headache, especially after the second dose. roughly 13% of those surveyed reported a fever after the second shot. reports of myocarditis that has been linked in rare cases to coronavirus vaccine remains scarce. the cdc said there were 11 verified reports that came from doctors, vaccine manufacturers or members of the company. of those, 17 recovered, and four were recovering. even that, as i understand it, dr. patel is something i can treat with something that reduces the inflammation. zero sort of seve

alok patel. dr. patel, thank you for joining us. i want to start with the issue of testing. we've seen the lines forming at places around the country and a lot of concerns about people having access to testing if they're concerned about an exposure. what is the holdup right now on testing, and what do you say to people having trouble finding a test? >> you know, it is alarming, because those lines look like they did in early 2020. it comes down to a supply chain issue, and we're seeing this influx of demand for testing that's not being met by the supply that exists. we were not prepared for this even though we saw omicron coming. hopefully the billions of dollars poured into this see a change. and tests become not only more available but more affordable. go online. talk to your pharmacies, your friends, because a lot of over-the-counter places have those available right now. >> so much of the advice is very familiar, get the booster shot, get vaccinated, wear a mask, open a window if you are getting together indoors. be careful around people who aren't vaccinated. is there a

kavita patel, nbc news medical contributor. doctor patel, great to see you this morning.with this pandemic, just the idea that we've now lost 800,000 americans, it's astounding to me every single day, every single life that we continue to lose. on top of that now, we have this natural disaster in the middle of the country, hospitals overwhelmed. one of the lowest vaccination rates are in the state of kentucky. how are they going to be able to deal? >> yeah, yasmin, unfortunately, they weren't dealing well to begin with, because of rising rates. and a lot of the areas affected, especially in kentucky and the surrounding states are very rural, very low, kind of hospital and provider capacity in general, minus the pandemic, minus the natural disaster. now you add into that a tornado is one of the worst. we've dealt with disasters after hurricanes, but we can kind of anticipate some of those things. we can get patients dialized. with a tornado, it's so arbitrary, as you just heard from kyanna, you don't know what's going to happen next minute. this is, really unfortunately, a

new zealand's ajaz patel achieved the milestone in the second test against india in mumbai.ay two. he'sjoinsjim laker and anil kumble as the only men to have achieved the feat. kumble described it as a special effort — especially as it came so early in a match — when conditions are normally harder for spinners. not so good for patel�*s side though — they're staring at defeat after being bowled out forjust 62. eileen ash, the world's oldest former test cricketer, has died at the age of 110. the bowler played seven matches for england either side of the second world war and rang the lord's bell ahead of the women's world cup final in 2017. former england captain clare connor, who is now the ecb managing director of women's cricket, said ash was a "pioneer" of the sport. the uk snooker championship in york has reached the semifinal stage. these are live pictures. kyren wilson is currently taking on luca brecel. best of 11 frames this. five frames to full at the moment. if he wins this, he will progress. later this evening, barry hawkins plays zhao xintong. saracen's have gone t

we knew who two of them were, kash patel, ally alexander. know who the other two are. >> reporter: yeah, our colleague garrett haake confirming the other two people who the january 6th committee spoke with today, csia former director chris krebs and then also former trump attorney and ally john eastman. we know that eastman was planning to come in and plead the fifth. it seems like today was his day to come in and do that. at least that was our expectation, and we'll keep reporting out what was actually said in that meeting. but today i think it's really important to note that the conversation has really been around the people who have not complied with the committee's subpoenas and who have not been cooperative. instead today in part because of the way liz cheney framed these tweets and because these four key players showed up for in some cases hours of depositions, you're seeing the committee show case the side of it that's actually working, that actually has people complying, giving information. and even in the case of someone like mark m

patel. listen, we talked about it a minute ago.rt hearing about this a whole lot n a bunch of states, a bunch of people. am i nuts or is that fair? >> no, no, that's fair. i think that's actually right to set expectations so each case doesn't terrify us. i expect dozens to 100 sets of cases in a matter of days. we are asking critical questions, were these people vaccinated? when? there are deals we need to know before we raise a level of panic. but i think going into the holidays it makes people think through what they are going to be doing, how are they going to take precautions. >> when people are thinking of precaution, rapid tests can be important. listen, they are still not super accessible and available to everybody in this country. what is the deal with that? >> right. yeah. there is -- it is interesting. months ago, the very same manufacturers, for example, abbott and others, actually destroyed tests because nobody wanted them when we thut we were in the summer before delta and we didn't need these tests. it is a combinatio

kavita patel.o see you and you write about how this travel ban really misses the mark since this variant was likely in the netherlands first. do travel bans have any utility today in our global society? >> yeah, lindsey, i wish they did, but they really don't have any evidence of utility, and particularly within the case of covid, which we know is, one, it's global, and two, our borders just prove, as scott kind of emphasized with what's happening at sfo, that our borders are just so porous, so yes, you might get some days but let's be clear. now we have evidence of community spread in the united states and as i referenced in the blog post that we have evidence that it was there -- in other countries before south africa picked it up. >> so, essentially, the u.s., many believe, is actually punishing south africa for having a strong surveillance system, one that, by the way, we ourselves don't even have so how can we be ahead of the curve, knowing that until we reach herd immunity, which might keep i
