joining us with answers on what to know about traveling associate professor of public health from uc irvine. >> the volume of people is up significantly from last year. down from 2019. do you feel there's a slowing down again? i mean, should people be traveling this much? >> well, i mean more and more people are fully vaccinated. so they are 14 days after the final dose. the johnson & johnson first dose or the second dose of pfizer or moderna. those people can safely travel. we have faith in the vaccines, it makes sense that travel is up compared to last year. >> on friday the cdc said anyone fully vaccinated can travel. does that mean you're fully safe to travel the way you would pre-pandemic. >> there's no full safety. there are breakthrough cases among people who are fully vaccinated. typically, those are milder than the cases we see in the non-vaccinated population. but there's no water tight guarantee that you won't get covid if you do x, y, or z. the viewers should remember that during a normal flu season there's no water tight guarantee that you won't get influenza. we can take

marty makary, professor of public health at johns hopkins university and a fox news medical contributord good news, dr. makary, for those who have been fully vaccinated. however, listen, with the potent variants, can a fully vaccinated person feel protected on an airplane for several hours? >> yeah, arthel, this is something which is not getting enough messaging out there. we need to let people know that the vaccines are 100 effective against all the variants in preventing death and serious illness. those are really the outcomes we're interested in. so just remember you've got no protection for the first ten days, it takes a couple weeks to kick in, and by the time you're at four weeks, you're good to go. arthel: okay. so i'm safe on the plane if i'm fully vaccinated with my mask on. got it, check one. what if you've only got one of two vaccinations? what can you do, who can you be around and how this. >> so it varies with different medical opinions, but if you look at the data, it's pretty clear that that protection at four weeks is 92%. the one dose is 92% effective for the mow modern

let's talk about this with johns hopkins university professor of public health dr. marty mccarry.onservative, i would say, as a proposal, as a rule. the kids back at summer camp and they can be within three feet of each other but they will still have to wear masks. this as we may be hearing masks may be coming off. >> we need to move back to the outdoors and what the cdc doesn't realize there are is alternative to restrictions outcoarse where people sit around indoors where there is a greater risk of people not only getting covid but sedentary lifestyle and other problems. encourage as many activity outdoors. cdc is too late, too little here. they are pushing this guidance out three weeks before summer camps start. what were they waiting for the evidence is overwhelming, jerry, studies out of ireland and asia now. these are not new studies show that 1 in 1,000 infects come from outdoor setting. we don't need the cdc to take three weeks to read 10 studies to adjudicate what we can do. >> jerry: why are they so slow, doctor? what are they so slow in caution? >> we saw this many time

joining us to discuss this is johns hopkins university of professor of public health dr. makary, thanks of all indeed. first of all this is a very, very, tiny baby step, right? i think the announcement said, people who are vaccinated can go outside or biking on their own, for a run, meet with friends outside. that is basically it. it is not exactly liberation day, is it? >> that's right. the message i took away from it, gerry, everybody needs to keep wearing a mask outdoor which is inconsistent with the science except for a small carveout group, those far out from the vaccine and fully vaccinated and they're in small gatherings. we have to move more activities outdoors. weather is nice. safer than indoors. when you make restrictions outdoors, guess what? people stay indoors. they're at greater risk of sedentary life-style, getting the coronavirus and of other problems and they gain weight. guess what the leading risk factor for hospitalization is? it is weight gain. gerry: there is not incentive for people to go out to get vaccination. all this involves, yes, maybe you can

but also the rest of the world, which, like us, is still battling this pandemic and watching this very closely >> thank you dr. atul gawande, professor at harvard school of public health. thank you. the cdc really punted on the j&j decision today are you concerned the longer they wait to make a decision the more harm that could do to confidence in the vaccine? >> no question that will happen, but i understand some of the reasons why they did it is 6 per 7 million, but there was a couple of pieces of new data that came through number one, they were able to calculate the risk for -- actually for women who are ages 20 to 50 who got the vaccine longer than two weeks ago, and that was closer to 1 in 13,000, and that was part of the reason to want to pause most of the women who got vaccinated in the last two weeks we haven't seen the reports come out. second, they recognized a case of a man age 25 in the johnson & johnson trial who had a cerebral hemorrhage from the same type of blood clot, and so they want to assess whether young men are at risk however, i think there is enough information to know that for people over 50 this is safe, and i think they could have potentiall

let's bring in andrew pekosz, john hopkins school of public health professor. i will be careful with my words. do you think the current guidance for vaccinated people is a reflection of what the science tells us vaccinated people can do or is it out of ensuring compliance from the people who have not been vaccinated? andrew: it is certainly based on the science and terms of what we know vaccination will do for an individual. we now know based on a number of studies that vaccination will not only text from severe disease, it will protect from symptomatic disease and reduce transmission. getting vaccinated is going to have a major impact on the pandemic. we assumed it would and now we have the data to support that. these relaxations of the guidance of the public health restrictions for vaccinated individuals reflects the fact that if you get vaccinated, you pose less of a threat to the population in terms of passing this disease onto people. i think that is a good thing that you are seeing. jonathon: do you think some people are still struggling with the logic of
