7 years about 3 years sooner than we had thought and it might even be sooner than that because keep in mind you know when you're looking at these numbers when you don't include things like world wide pandemics that shut down the supply chains and then we watch as china redoubles its effort and gets manufacturing moving again at a breakneck pace and the u.s. has not done that and other countries have not at china is on pace actually maybe to get there even sooner than 7 years from now but here's what's really fascinating is that what the chinese have managed to do is they have become not only the most desirable market in the world for every company and every manufacturer right who once their products their goods their items to be sold in china and by the way that really is the value of what china is bringing to this european trade deal the european manufacturers and companies that are trying to get into china are thrilled at the idea that they have access to it the u.s. wants to slow that down and the u.s. is attempted on many levels to slow that down but the problem that they run in

but the sooner we get out of it, the sooner we lock people down and keep people separated to keep this super spreading. we have to take the tough medicine in order to have things get better before that vaccine comes. that vaccine is a wonderful thing. it's just not going to be available for most of us for many months. >> but a lot of people are says, hey, show me the money. the frustration comes from certain misunderstanding about how is my outdoor dining causing transmission. where is the data on infection and transmission? >> it's a legitimate question. there's a data desert out there. the state is collecting the data but they're not sharing any of it with us. they're not sharing it request schools, they're not sharing it with businesses is particularly problematic where they are not. people get frustrated because they want to skill this virus but they want to know the rules have been established in an objective way. people are having trouble seeing and understanding that and that's unfortunate. >> right. and a lot of people are asking show us the data with kids and transmission, the

so, the sooner we start, the sooner we will reap the benefit.hink that's the right way to think about it. somewhere between two weeks and a month is typically when you can have a impact and knock down the infkz rate substantially. >> you guys had earlier in the year, a lot of experience, bad experience with this, you have learned a lot. what about schools? how does it affect kids going back to school? >> the schools have been amazing and i credit our parents, educators, staff, and health care folks. our schools in new york city are the safest places to be in all of new york city. incredibly low level of infection. testing every week. constant cleaning, social distancing, mask wearing. the healthiness, the safety of the school system has been one of the bright spots in the crisis. so, i want to see them stay open. obviously, we have to be sure that we can keep them safe and the kids and the staff and everyone in them. so, right now, i think the key point is, continuing to test every single week. make sure the schools are safe, and that's how we m

this could not have come any sooner this could not have come any sooner because things are so difficults. it's been a long road to get here. it's incredibly difficult for so many americans. many would say it is almost too late. they've been waiting a very long time for this stimulus bill. the second largest stimulus bill in american history, second only to the first stimulus after the pandemic started. it was worth $1.8 trillion, so not quite as much money this time, but it means there will be additional unemployment payments to people, fixed sums to many, many americans, help for students. students have been struggling to pay their loans. assista nce struggling to pay their loans. assistance for farmers, small businesses, schools. it really covers a wide range of areas from individuals and businesses that have been suffering to this pandemic and of course, for a very large number of people, there's still no end in sight. people are still losing theirjobs sight. people are still losing their jobs because of sight. people are still losing theirjobs because of this disease and going throu

the sooner we pass the funding, the sooner we can turn the corner on covid-19. in the weeks since the election ended, there were questions whether democrats and republicans could work together. i know many of you are skeptical on my view that they will or can. right now we are showing they can. congress and president trump have to get this deal done for the american people. but any package passed in the lame duck session is not going to be enough overall. it's critical, but it's just a start. congress is going to need to act again in january. earlier today, i consulted with a number of my economic team, most of which have been announced by now. and vice president harris and i announced that team last week. as we inherit the public health and economic crisis, we are working on a plan we will put forward in the next congress to move fast, to control the pandemic, to revive the economy and build back better than before. we hope to see the same kind of spirit of a partisan cooperation as we are seeing today. our plan is based on the input from a broad range of peopl

we know the sooner we can vaccinate everyone, the sooner we can get back to the pandemic and have ours back to school in the fall and be normal again. in order to reach that kind of immunity throughout, we really need these other vaccines to come online as well. but alone the production is not going to be enough. >> okay. i want to ask you about the covid variant. both pfizer and moderna are testing to make sure the vaccines are effective. they are both hopeful that it is. any reason for any of us to think differently? >> no, there's no reason for us to believe at this point that, for some reason this vaccine is not going to be effective against this variant. muleations do occur. vaccines are designed with that in mind. it may be that over time, it may be mutations are significant enough that vaccines need to be recon figured, but there's no reason to believe that the vaccine, unlike influenza, don't mutate that quickly. there's no reason for us to believe the vaccine won't work now. the fact thajts vane vaercht is more transmissible. i hope what people take away is we need to double

the economy was able to get control sooner has provided them with a base to rebound.oe: what is the nature of this growth? crisis, therethe was talk about and balanced growth in china. it was veryat investment led and it needed to bounceback to more consumption, redistributing some of the wealth toward more household purchasing power. is that happening in any meaningful sense? or is what we are seeing now in china simply looking like the previous growth regime? emily: i think we are starting to see that shift. we have now seeing it encoded and policy decisions, as this dual circulation strategy where their direct focus over the next 10 years is to make it a more consumer led economy, and have that approach rather than reverting to the old model of what they have traditionally done. we have that. but on the same side, i think we also do see this constant background hovering of the concern in the past. i think that is some of the regulatory burdens that have come up in recent weeks and also we have seen a little bit more scrutiny from the government side. because there
