wynter, southern hemisphere's wynter, so we expect in the summer —— southern hemisphere that will becomewhich is coronavirus season also, that might boomerang right back to the northern hemisphere with a second wave that is actually larger and unfortunately potentially more deadly. that is quite scary to hear you say that, that this isn't even the worst and the worst is yet to come. what is it about this coronavirus that makes it so effective in spreading? yeah, it's really three things: first of all, it's a respiratory virus that is highly contagious. unlike ebb although where you had to physically touch somebody —— ebola, or get in contact with bodily fluids, this virus can of course be transmitted by a cough. 0fte nti mes transmitted by a cough. 0ftentimes through touch, where somebody who has the virus, such as theirface, somebody who has the virus, such as their face, touches something else and you touch that thing. for example, on a subway train. in addition, u nfortu nately, subway train. in addition, unfortunately, this virus can cause serious illness or even death, as we have se

and the reason i say that is that what we're starting to see now in the southern hemisphere, in southern africa, the southern hemisphere countries, is that we're having cases that are appearing, as they go into their winter season, and if in fact they have a substantial outbreak, it will be inevitable that we need to be prepared that we'll get a cycle around the second time. what does that mean for us in what we're doing? it totally emphasizes the need to do what we're doing in developing a vaccine, testing it quickly, and trying to get it ready so that we'll have a vaccine available for that next cycle. in addition, to do the randomized control trials of drugs so that we will have a menu of drugs that we have shown to be effective and shown to be safe. because i know we'll be successful in putting this down now, but we really need to be prepared for another cycle. and what we're doing, i believe, will prepare us well. thank you. >> dr. fauci, a trusted voice there. a lot of people sit up and listen when he speaks. when he said that yesterday, i know i heard it. >> essentially he's sayin

transfer to the southern hemisphere is the climate that gets cooler as the southern hemisphere goes on into winter so so it's not going to go away even if it subsides in the northern hemisphere so what happens to a truly global event like the olympics it seems the olympic authorities are saying yes yes yes the no probably lympics will will be going ahead you know it's miles down the road yet before getting ever closer i mean we've had the japanese prime minister talking situations already saying as far as he's concerned everything is going to go ahead as planned and we've heard that it over and over again from from the head of the international olympic committee thomas back i think again you've got a situation where barbara goddess of what they're saying. in the weeks and months building up to an olympics what happens when some of the key athletes starting at a coronavirus what happens when key events in the build of postponed which we've heard from the u.s. olympic committee they're having to cancel trials because they can't host the events i'm looking at the the main track and field

and the reason i say that is that what we're starting to see now in the southern hemisphere and southerna and in the southern hemisphere countries is that we're having cases that are appearing as they go into their winter season. in fact, if they have a substantial outbreak, it will be inevitable that we need to be prepared that we'll get a cycle around the second time. >> this gets at obviously this mixed messaging. here's dr. fauci warning us, we're going to get hit a second time. there's probably going to be a second peak in the fall before we get this vaccine, dr. gupta. the question is, are we going to be prepared to both handle the ability to, i guess, scllow dow our social distancing but then come back and be able to fight this in six months. what's your belief of how we prepare for what dr. fauci is warning is coming? >> i think he's spot-on. any public health expert of any regard is saying the exact same thing. this is not going to magically go away forever. he's exactly right. what we see with flu with that the southern hemisphere first has their seasonal affliction with flu an

that we need to be prepared for the virus to come back but we're starting to see now in the southern hemisphere in southern africa and in the southern hemisphere countries is that we're having cases that are appearing as they go into their winter season and if in fact they have a substantial outbreak it will be their beautiful that we need to be prepared that we'll get a cycle around the 2nd time it totally emphasizes the need to do what we're doing in developing a vaccine testing it quickly and trying to get it ready so that we'll have a vaccine available for that next cycle well far more numbers an information on the corona virus be sure to check out our portable dot tv app and look for the section tracking coronavirus and for more on what this means for the global economy we are joined by bus co-host chrystia kristie. well even as the market continues it's been bad today jumping over 6 percent in the s. and p. fed chair drum palace said that the united states quote may well be in a recession but that the fed will take every action to support the economy when it reopens just before unemployme

of the world and the spread of the virus in the southern hemisphere of the world, i think what his point is that, look, as the weather cooled over there, we started to see increase spread. that might mean as the weather warms here, we'll see less spread. acutely in the short-term that may provide a little bit of relief as we're all going through this. but as you point out, it also means it is likely to come back as the weather gets cooler. what dr. fauci is hoping for, by that time, in the fall, maybe we'll get another shot at getting the testing right. at least doing a better job testing earlier, being able to isolate people who test positive, tracing their social contacts and really trying to curb the spread of this. maybe, again, as dr. walensky was talking about, maybe one of the therapeutics being trialed, still anecdotal, but maybe we'll have better evidence. we won't have a vaccine likely by that point, assuredly drug, testing, maybe better prepared a second time around. >> first we have to get through the spring and we really appreciate both of you. dr. gupta, dr. walensky, thank

>> absolutely, we have cold and flu seasons in winter months and southern hemisphere has the opposite, their winter months are our summer months. we have the dip in summer before the sunlight. uv can inactivate the virus. less illness. still get cold and flu just far less cases. just like 1918 and seasonal flu, can expect a second round in the fall. unless we completely cut off southern hemisphere from traveling to the united states we're going to import cases during their winter months as well. >> dr. lipi roy and joseph fair, thank you for starting us off. >>> when we come back, new york's governor andrew cuomo predicted that a version of what's happening in new york tonight is coming for every other state. in michigan there are now more than 2,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus. and the largest hospital system is almost at capacity. governor joins us next. commerci. not another commercial! when you bundle your home, auto and life insurance with allstate you could save 25%. the more you bundle the more you can save. what? bundle and save. click or call for a quote today. unlike ordi

you are seeing some person to person transmission, the southern hemisphere as well. we have to wait and see. as far as heat for ones that own -- trying to eliminate the virus from their own body, keep in mind, it is very hard to actually significantly change your body temperature. i read all kinds of things, people ask me questions about, you know, should i be using hair dryers? should i be sitting in saunas for a long period time? it is hard to change your body temperature. those types of things aren't going to change the likelihood that the virus is in your body or replicating. but the idea of climate -- weather changes possibly leading to a sort of decreasing of the pace at which this is increasing i think is possible. >> all right, i'll stop sending you my questions about blow drying my hair. this is from barbara in boynton beach, florida, it is hand sanitizer shortage. so she says i couldn't get hand sanitizer with least 60% alcohol, however i could purchase nonalcohol sanitizer, which claims to also kill 99.9% of germs. would that be as effective? >> yeah, well

"the washington post" reported that the virus doesn't appear to be mutating quickly, suggesting that a vaccine could and would offer some lasting protection. what are you seeing about the potential for a second virus or a second cycle of this virus and for an effective vaccine? >> so i'll start with the second piece first, which is you know, what a vaccine does is it gives a jump to your memory of your immune system by introducing it to potential areas of a virus or pieces of the virus that you could then develop immune memory so when you see it, you're able to combat it. it's good news when we hear the virus is not mutating enough, which means the vaccine will

southern hemisphere is starting to see more cases as that virus circles the cold. it likes the cold weather. it is more contagious. when it comes to the winter months here we'll see a recurrence of this. conceivable we wouldn't have somebody carrying it along that far. we have to be prepared. the vaccine won't be here yet. it will be here in a year. meantime we need therapies. >> sandra: meanwhile when it comes to the situation at hand the top pentagon doctor is warning as of now this disease is not showing any signs of letting up. so he is warning against easing up on restrictions. listen. >> this is a pandemic. this is a significant infectious disease outbreak and it is going to be weeks, not days. it will take intensive measures as we're implementing to mitigate it. and it's difficult to be surprised by that. until we go through it, we aren't going to know exactly how long it takes. >> sandra: so dr. oz, what is your message to the american people who are hunkering down at home right now and maybe where they are it is not that bad or they don't know a brother or

more evidence of the virus spreading in the southern hemisphere.hat that means is likely a seasonal variation, it wasn't spreading when the weather was warmer. it is spreading when the weather is cooler. that could mean that as the weather warms in the northern hemisphere, we'll see decrease spread. that part of it is good news. the more challenging part of it is instead this idea then that there will be another cycle to this. that there will be another cycle come in the fall or late summer again and hopefully we will be more prepared. so good news, there might be a seasonal variation, but also a recalled sort of effort to be prepared as the weather might cool again later on this year. >> got to get on that vaccine as quickly as possible. i know so many people are trying now. >> that's right. >> sanjay, don't go far. we'll come back in a little bit. join sanjay and anderson for a new live cnn global town hall, coronavirus, facts and fears, tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern. >>> so millions of americans unemployed, wondering how they're going to make end

it will go to the southern hemisphere and create more damage there. but the human coronaviruses, although they're seasonal, they're not as seasonal as influenza, which almost disappears during the summer. those human coronaviruses continue to smolder. so i think we will, in some form or another, still be very wary and initiating, at least some of the social distancing that we're doing now. and as dr. gupta says, bracing ourselves for a second wave come the winter. >> dr. gupta, very quickly, do you -- i guess what i'm curious about, will our summer be sort of half-staff working, shifted ours, that sort of thing. restaurants at 50% capacity. is that a possibility in the summer or is that being too hopeful and too optimistic? >> i think we should have -- we should temper our expectations and be happy if things are different. so to your point, chuck, i don't know, but, yes, i think that's a real possibility and it's better tempered expectations about what june, july, august look like and be happy if it's different. >> we've go the tell it to me straight

one of our viewers asked why are countries in the southern hemisphere that are warmer now still gettingy the virus? what may, or could, cause this virus to die out? >> those are two different questions. and the first question is, you know, why our southern hemisphere, australia, singapore which is equatorial. israel and egypt, which are warmer, having the coronavirus. that assumes it's seasonal. that assumes it's supposed to go down when it warms up. in fact, it may not go down when it warms up at all. it may not be seasonal. some coronaviruses are seasonal. but some are not, like mers. it also may be the fact that there's no immunity to this, and there is no, you know, the first wave doesn't obey the seasonality. and maybe by the time we get the second or third wave, there will be a seasonality to it. so it's not very, you know, the fact that it's showing up in other countries may suggest that it's not going to be seasonal. but that also may be a result of the fact that there's no immunity to it and it's easily spread. what's going to make it go down and disappear? well, herd immunity
