reiner. let me play it. >> we are going to be working to unwind the sort of testing psychology that our federal leadership has managed to, unfortunately, get most of the country in over the last two years. we need to unwind this testing sort of -- um -- sort of planning and living one's life around testing. so, you know, it's really time for people to be living, to dec -- you know, to make the decisions they want regarding vaccination, to enjoy the fact that many people have natural immunity. >> dr. reiner, i mean, he does express what i think a lot of people may feel, right? which is why am i testing all the time when i'm not symptomatic? i'm not sick. i'm vaccinated. and -- and all the sudden, i am told i have to stay out of work. you know, does -- does he have a point? and -- and if not, why? >> no, and in fact, it's hard to believe those comments came from the surgeon general of one of the largest states in -- in this country. and his words echo what the former president of the united sta

reiner. 1 million cases a day, a real possibility now according to dr. fauci. is there anything left the biden administration can do to get us out of this hole? or are we just going to have to ride this thing out? >> um, well, first of all, i think a million cases a day is going to be probably a big underestimate. remember, a lot of people are testing at home now, and very few of those tests are being reported. so, i expect that many more than a million people a day will end up contracting this virus. look, i think the biden administration has focused most of their energy over the last year in trying to vaccinate as many americans as possible. and they vaccinated about 210 million people, which is a great achievement, except about a third of the country remains unvaccinated. but they spend less attention on testing, and we're starting to see how we're being hurt by that. so, going back to, you know, to how you opened this piece, if you want to get kids and teachers back in schools, the way to do that is a multipronged approach, including flooding our schools wi

jonathan reiner. and also dr.covid-19 newsletter and contributor to the atlantic. "dr. reiner, to you first because you called out bari weiss on twitter. you told her to grow up. tell us why you had such a negative comment to her comments. >> well, first of all, her behavior was childish, which is why i told her to grow up. she ranted about how inconvenienced she's been by this pandemic and how it's not real anymore. well, i'll tell you that for the 10,000 americans who died last week and for their families, yeah, it was damn real. and for the people who, you know, struggled to keep them alive, and for the thousands and thousands of health care workers who have been doing this nonstop for two years. her behavior was childish and selfish. look, this pandemic has gone on, you know, in large part because the virus has mutated. and 25% of the american population, of the adults in this country, have decided not to get vaccinated. she may be frustrated that life isn't normal, but we are in the hottest point of this pand

chair, i see vice chair reiner wanting to speak. >> vice chair: again. sorry. and you had such hopes, john carroll. i would just like to make sure, you know, drop boxes are great, but they really don't help in terms of staying current. i don't know when it's happening so i would request that you get the list of the names of the task force, the e-mails of the task force. if you could, i will send you reverend townsend's and my personal e-mail. i really like to know when things go out and i think the task force needs to be aware. i think that if you could work with member cooper on getting the instagram, the, you know, facebook, whatever the versions are that are going to be posted on the social media and he can post them as well. i think all of those are really important that we be connected to that and we know when it's happening. i don't mind my inbox filling up and moving it over to archive or something, but i like to know when i get a call or if somebody else calls me and says i didn't see this or i didn't see what happened, i can at least find it. >> i thin

jonathan reiner joins our conversation on this, along with seung min kim. wave is here. it's more like a tsunami, and we have the masks, we have medical personnel being deployed to hospitals that are overwhelmed. you've got the covid test. but is all of this a little bit too late for this particular wave? >> it certainly is. we've had rapid tests in the united states for almost a year. the test was given the okay by the fda for almost a year. and many have been urging the government to do this because it was seen that these rapid tests were really the tools to keep businesses open and keep -- keep the pandemic at bay. but they've come to the party very, very late. so the government's website will open on wednesday. we're told initially there will be about 50 million tests available for shipment. each home can order up to four tests, and it will take about 7 to 12 days for these tests to be shipped. so we're really talking about getting tests into homes really beginning in february. and for a large part of this country that's been hit the hardest, particular

jonathan reiner from george washington university. dr.e 34 states trending down, but trending down, you see this in the hospital every day, from a very high base line. what do you make of public health experts saying please, mr. president, explain this next chapter. >> well, i think it's very notet the country is going to come out of omicron in a wave. and so we're seeing the mid-atlantic where i live and the northeast. the areas in this country that were hit first now dropping dramatically. d.c. is more than halfway down on -- now on the back side of the curve following the -- really the highest levels of infection we saw throughout the entire pandemic. george washington university where i work announced that as of monday, all meeting restrictions will be lifted. and now for instance, basketball games can be attended by students and visitors. so things are getting better and i think we're going to start to see in waves this happen across the country. i've always thought that's sort of the dogmatic restrictions of either locking down the

reiner, fight for these vaccine mandates.ing ready to reject biden's vaccine requirement for businesses with 100-or-more employees. i want to play an exchange we heard with conservative justice sam yell alito. essentially, unvaccinated employees should be able to assume their own risk. it is up to them. >> maybe, very foolishly, but they want to balance the risks presented to their health in a different way and osha says no, you can't do that and that applies when you are on the job, and also when you are not on the job. and for the rest of your life baufz to take these vaccines. unless the testing option is viable. >> so, what do you say should be at their own risk? i guess maybe if you are out sick because you have covid and are unvaccinated, a company doesn't -- they don't have to pay you. i do not know how all that gets fed through but what do you make of what he is saying? >> so, what the justice ston astopishingly seems not to realize is this is not simply about individual risk. if you are look locked in a room forever,

reiner. joining. the president saying he is satisfied with how his white house handled the coronavirus pandemic, but acknowledges that they could have done better with testing. but it's not a mark of incompetence. it does seem like a pretty big failure, though, do you agree with that, or no? >> i think i have been saying for months this administration should have sent tests out to every household in the united states. but what i think the president should have said today in response to that question is he should have said that no one could have predicted that fully 25% of americans would refuse to get vaccinated. 70 million people. and that they would then -- they would not vaccinate their children. >> listen, we are going into year three. it's hard to believe. just today, almost two years into this pandemic. the biden white house announcing they will be distributing 400 million n95 masks to the public for free. i mean, they are going to be available at local pharmacies and community health c

as vice chair reiner says. meeting people in person makes for a more collaborative atmosphere, but we can only collaborate with each other anding with the public if all of us are alive and well. so i think it is prudent to go with member hernandez gil's motion. my main concern then is mr. ing's references to his staffing issues if we need to somehow annul that in some shape or form should we take this course of action. thank you. >> chair townsend: thank you. >> clerk: mr. chair, i see member castillon. >> chair townsend: mr. castillon. >> member: thank you, mr. chair. >> clerk: i think that your microphone has cut out. >> member: can you hear me? >> clerk: we can hear you now but we just missed all of what you just said. >> member: okay. i will try to speak very closely to my computer. i'll keep my comments short, but i know member cooper was hoping to hear from everyone regarding their personal feelings towards the current situation. i'm generally supportive of member hernandez gil's motion in this particular

jonathan reiner, proffers of medicine and surgery at george washington university. president biden said yesterday that covid is not here to stay, but a growing number of medical expert including some of the president's advisers disagree and basically says the public needs to accept living with covid. look, there's gray area here, it's not a black and white -- necessarily answer. which side do you fall on in terms of what the pandemic is going to look like in the weeks and months ahead for average americans? >> well, for the next several weeks, it's going to look bad in many american cities. new york, 40 hospitals in new york just canceled elective procedures. the d.c. hospital association where i work has asked the d.c. government for permission for hospitals to enact crisis standards of care. and that's coming to every city in the united states. it's going come in a wave from north to south in this country. and it's going to last hopefully not much more than a few weeks, but it's going to be a tough january into the first part of february, and then hopefully it wil

jonathan reiner, he's a medical professionaler of surge at new york hospital.hank you for being with us. right now, we have seen millions of americans ringing in the new year. while cases are at a record high. what are you worried about now in the weeks ahead? >> well, i'm worried about our hospitals, we're going to continue to see millions and millions of cases in the united states. and even with the lower virulence, apparently for the variant, 2% of folks who contract the virus need to be hospitalized. and it's going to be a race, it's going to be a race between waiting for this surge to crest. and hoping that we don't run out of hospital capacity. and again, it's not just the bed capacity in the hospital. what we're really worried about is hospital staff getting ill and having to isolate. and it's going to be close in many parts of the country. we're seeing hospitalizations in places like new york, rise significantly, you know where i live and work in d.c., also we're seeing hospitalizations rise. we still have some capacity, but it's all going to depend on

john reiner, and medical adviser to the george bush white house, and what do you think about what dr.fauci said there, and it is a change in the tone, because it seems a significant shift saying no thaw everybody is going to, is going to get it, and what do you hit the means? well, i don't think is saying that everybody is going to get omicron, but, everybody is going to encounter omicron, and how prepared are you when the virus does find you. and for the people who are unvaccinated, this virus will make them sick, and can kill them. for people who are vaccinated and boosted, illness, either they won't contract the disease at all or illness will be mild and quite limited. that is really what he is saying. the virus is everywhere, and it is going to find you, and it is really your decision about how protected you are when the virus does find you. >> is it saying this and the acting fda commissioner said that as well yesterday. is it defeatist or realistic, because when and if people should be changing their behavior with them giving this assessment now. >> no, i think it is realistic.

jonathan reiner, i'm not sure if you heard ability the sound bite, previous steps to mitigating covid that might not be as effective during this surge. 6 plus feet of social distance, et cetera. if the answer is more stringent steps how do you persuade a public that is already ignoring them and covid fatigued? >> yeah. it's challenging. i think we have to just continue with the messaging that we've been using and try to be available as health care providers to answer the questions that families have. but it's just so important for families to understand that they do have some control over this virus. from my perspective, i believe that mitigation strategies like masking, like hand wash, like distancing and avoiding excessive indoor gatherings are critical to helping decrease the spread of this virus. it may be more transmissible, but these same strategies still will work against any respiratory virus, and that includes omicron. >> dr. susanna hills, appreciate your insight. thanks for the time. >> thank you. >>> and a further discussion of covid policies and white house's testing stra

jonathan reiner. the white house rolled out its free at-home testing site today. a limit of four per household and it will take a couple of weeks before the tests get to people's doorsteps. will this effort ultimately make any sort of dent in the pandemic? >> well, maybe not for this big omicron surge, but going forward, yes. i think tests are critical -- a critical tool to help us get back to normal. it's how we are going to be able to understand whether that tickle in your throat is just a tickle in your throat or whether it's covid. and whether you need to stay home. it's a tool to allow you to go visit your friends on saturday night which is what we and our friends did before we met this past weekend. so it's going to be critical to have tests in every home. it would have been wonderful for us to have had this months ago, but here we are and i'm glad the administration is doing this. but for most people they won't be able to get these tests until the beginning of february and i encourage everyone to go on the website this week and order some to have in your ho

reiner. we've discussed it many times before. the up vaccinated are at higher risk of more severe disease and if you look at the data, the percentage of americans who are fully vaccinated, hovering around 62% forever. just been a stagnant flat line. why is it not breaking through that getting a vaccine and getting boosted at least protects you from severe illness. >> a large part of the media, conservative media, has not promoted vaccines. the former president of the united states who has taken credit for inventing the vaccines has not promoed the vaccines. another big problem in this country is that relatively few people have been boosted. only about a third of people who are vaccinated and eligible for boosters have actually booten boosters. and i think we've done a version very poor job at messaging that so we don't have a fully immunized country. we, have you know, maybe 50 million people who are vaccine naive right now, and this is incredibly contagious virus. if you are unvaccinated now, you will acquire this virus. it's ju

jonathan reiner. >> the country should understand that the virus is not going to go away. pandemic is going to go away. and going forward, we're going to have to start to think about having low level of covid, the same way we have low level of -- well, we have high levels of influenza over year, but we'll have to face this notion that this is going to be a background in our society and we're going to have to learn how to live with it. we'll probably have yearly updates on vaccines, we'll have different ways to test for it, better therapeutics. so we are going to live with this virus indefinitely. but the pandemic itself, the health emergency that we're in now is going to eventually go away. hopefully in the next several weeks. >> and dr. reiner adds that he wants to hear american leaders from the local level, all the way up to national, tell the public the truth. that this is going to be a very difficult several weeks. now, officials are struggling to contain covid-19 in europe, as well. in europe, the uk has joined only a handful of country reporting more than 150,000 tot

jonathan reiner. hello, doctor. thanks for joining us this evening.om a texas judge comes just days after the supreme court blocked the administration's vaccine rules for large businesses. what is the impact on public health, do you think? >> probably not a lot. about 98% of federal employees now are vaccinated. this mandate has been in place since the president issued it in november, so just about everyone who works for the federal government has complied. so i'm not sure it's going to have a practical impact. but it continues to amaze me. you know, mandates for vaccines are not new. we've lived with these for a long time. kids can't go to school in any state in this country without getting vaccinated. the military has had a vaccine mandate, you know, forever. so there's all this precedent. this is not some new government overreach to try and vaccinate people. we've lived with this for a long time. this is just a ginned up political thing right now, but i don't think this judge's ruling will have any practical impact. >> i want to talk about the new

jonathan reiner tweeted this over the weekend, "the cdc refuses to redefine fully vaccinated as the primarys. population is fully vaccinated, but that's the truth and that's why we're seeing packed hospitals and 1 million cases per day." why hasn't the biden administration reclassified fully vaccinated to include the booster? >> well, jake, what the cdc has said is that to be up to date on your vaccinations, you need to have your primary series plus the booster. that is the key, we need everybody up to date. it's absolutely right we need to get more people boosted in this country. that's why i and many other clinicians inside and outside government have been urging everybody to get boosted as quickly as possible. here's what we see in the data, if you had your primary series, two shots of moderna or shot of the johnson & johnson vaccine, that you still have decent protection against hospitalization and death, but you increase that protection even more and increase your protection against all infection by getting that booster shot. to anyone out there who hasn't gotten boosted it, if you're
