and only three people in vermont are in the hospital for covid, according to vermont's governor.nd be alive because you did the right things in the right numbers when you needed to. let's discuss how they got there. we have vermont's commissioner of health, dr. lavine. great to see you, doc. >> good to see you, chris. >> what did you do there that hasn't been done elsewhere? >> we started with a population we call vermonters who really prioritized health. no matter what metric you look at, vermont is regarded as one of the healthiest state. so vermonters are traditionally prioritizing health and they're very cooperative. it's not only their health, it's their family's health, their community's health in a very new england way. secondly, trust is really the key, trust in leadership. surveys throughout the pandemic have shown that one of the governors that leads the charge when it comes to their state's assessment of their performance is our governor, phil scott. and when you ask vermonters where they go for their most trusted source of health information, it's the department of he

that means on any given day, only 30 people in the entire state of vermont got covid-19.

it's interesting, anderson, because you go to a place like vermont and i think vermont is probably twice. iceland is like 350,000 people. vermont is pretty similar in terms of vaccination rates. 16 plus getting close to 90% vaccination rate. so you've got these pockets of that sort of civic duty as you and gary were talking about. but obviously if you look at overall the status in the country we've got about 52% fully vaccinated, 9% more that are partially vaccinated, and it's that red in the upper left corner, the eligible unvaccinated. that percentage is just too high, anderson. and that's the problem. 98% of people in the hospital with covid in june, july were from that red part of the pie graph there, so that's the issue. that continues to be the issue. >> by the way, how is vermont doing in terms of covid? >> well, you know, it's interesting because they still have higher spread than thidid a couple weeks ago or about three or four weeks ago now. but the overall hospitalizations and deaths are quite low. that's the thing. we look at cases and then we look at hospitalizations and dea

he is the governor of the state of vermont. now, yes, you say, vermont is a rural state with a small population. but you know what? so is south dakota. south dakota is also a rural state with a small population and as christy gnome shaz has shown, none of that precludes you from really screwing up the response to the virus. well, phil scott has done the opposite of christy gnome. he has been proactive since the beginning of the pandemic. instituting a mask mandate, last july. and crucially, rolling out a very, very successful vaccination campaign earlier this year. vermont is now the most-vaccinated state in the union. 76.6% of the eligible population, 12 plus, fully vaccinated. this dispatched from vermont describes a world where the pandemic has basically been defeated, suppressed. restaurants, bars, shops, open. hospital covid units are empty. the state is basically staved off an outbreak, brought on by the delta variant because they have such a high-vaccination rate. they also have among the lowest death rates per capita. n

this dispatch from vermont describes a world where the pandemic is basically been defeated, suppressed. restaurants bar shops are opened, hospital covid units are empty. the state is basically stepped off an outbreak brought up by the delta variant, because they have such a high vaccination rate. they also have among the lowest death rates per capita. now, this is a state that joe biden won by more than 35 points. it's a pretty liberal state. governor phil scott is a republican. but his approval ratings for the handling of the pandemic through the roof. 71% according to one survey released in march. think about all, this what this adds up to. any same political culture, phil scott would obviously be a top tier candidate for higher office. this is a guy who could walk on to the national stage and say, i managed to watch in this century pandemic than any other governor in our country. as a republican in a democratic state, with a 71% approval rating. but not only is that not the case, it's literally the opposite of the case, the fact that phil scott managed the pandemic so well, is disqu

that means, on any given day only 30 people in the entire state of vermont got covid-19. nearby maine, which is vaccinated -- has seen nearly 6% increase in vaccination. they're saying nearly 10 to 20 million more cases for unvaccinated people in lower vaccinators states read it is heartbreaking. particularly because it is preventable. that is why we are doing everything we can to get more people vaccinated. and we are seeing real results. in the past two weeks, we've seen a 55% increase in the average number of new people getting vaccinated every day area in the last seven days alone, 3 million americans have gotten their first shot. that is the highest seven-day total in a month. and more importantly, the eight states with the highest current case rates have seen a doubling of the number of people newly vaccinated each day. the message is getting through, apparently. louisiana has seen 212% increase in the average number of vaccinated in that state per day. going from 3600 to over 11,000 people vaccinated per day. arkansas is up 99 percent. mississippi 125%. alabama is

that means on any given day, only 30 people in the entire state of vermont got covid-19. nearby maine, which has vaccinated nearly 80%, has seen just six new cases per 100,000. the state with the lowest vaccination rates are seeing 10 to 20 times as many new cases per 100,000 people. it is moving like wildfire through the unvaccinated community. it is heartbreaking. particularly because it is preventable. we are doing everything we can to get more people vaccinated. we are seeing real results. in the past two weeks we have seen a 55% increase in the average number of new people getting vaccinated every day. in the last seven days, nearly 3 million americans have got their first shot. that is the highest seven-day total in a month. over the past two weeks, the eight states with the highest current kate race -- case rates have seen a doubling in the number of people newly vaccinated each day. the message is getting through. louisiana's seen a to 12% increase in vaccinations per day. going from 3600 two over 11,000 vaccinated per day. arkansas is up 99%. mississippi is up 12

but now let's switch to vermont, the one vaccinated state. look how dramatic the difference is in this chart. yes, there are some slight rises in hospitalizations in states like vermont, but the difference is so dramatic and people need to see the differences in these charts. in vermont, there are more neighbors protecting their neighbors. it's as simple as that. this is why the coverage need for nuance, because there is no single national story right now about covid-19. there are two very different stories. clearly at this point many unvaccinated adults have made a choice and they've settled on it and they're not going to be swayed. they don't fear covid, they don't mind getting sick, they think they're going to be okay. they're wrong not to get vaccinated, but they made that choice. again, even there, there is no single story, because right now daily vaccinations are ticking back up. some clearly are listening. let's hope this fox news graphic works. let's hope fox viewers see this. let's hope the message is clear. there are two different c

other things you want to say about that before we kind of get to the end of the conversation. >> vermont is a great model when we suggested the gender equity amendment and i think there are a number of states and i don't have the exact number, but about ten that have already recognized the constitutional right within their state constitutions or have passed the omnibus law that guarantee that it's a statutory matter so there are a lot of good things in some states that will help women obtain the services. the first question of where can people go to help, and every community there are pro-choice organizations working on this issue that shouldn't be hard to find, but if they are, the book website has a whole list of organizations that are working in the area. many of them have local affiliates, planned parenthood are in every states, so i think hook up with a friend and find some group to work with because it's also more fun when we do it collectively. >> i was going to say who inspires me. to me it is a teenager for a day of commencement speech. she inspires me, the women of argentina an

it has been enormously successful in vermont and all over this country as parents finally get the help that they need to raise their kids. and in fact, it has helped reduce childhood poverty in our country by 61%, and we are going to extend those child tax credits. further, we're going to help working parents by addressing the crisis in child care by making sure that no working family in our country pays more than 7% of their income for child care. and all over this country, talking to parents in vermont, elsewhere, people are paying 20%, 25% of their income for child care so that they can go to work. that makes no sense at all. and under our proposal, no working family will pay more than 7%. and when we do that, when we make child care more affordable and accessible, it will allow over a million women who are now home with their kids to reenter the workforce and improve our economy. and further, in terms of addressing the needs of our working parents and their kids, we will expand public education by providing universal pre-k to every three- and four-year-old in the country. madam pre

i wrote a book called the death of the vermont which amongst other things is about the battle of stalingrad and you don't need to know a whole lot about world war ii to know that many people consider staling rod to be the turning point of the war at least the eastern front now, i'm not sure. i'm one of those people iii i'm a little dubious of the whole concept of turning point and i wrote the book very carefully so that i never said the word turning point and i was lucky the book. i picked up by the book club book of the month club history book club at the time. you know, i helped put my daughters through college with with the proceed. so it was all good. but i remember when the little brochure came about, you know, this month's selections and there's death the vermont by by satino and big bold headlines turning point of world war ii, so i realized that at some point it doesn't matter whether you think staling rod is a turning point or whether you're uncomfortable with the concept people are still going to use it and so you might as well go along with that and at least try to define what yo

we can always guess what a young soldier, a young private from vermont, he had just celebrated his 20thy on the 5th of june, 1918. so he lived only to be 20 years old. we can probably guess what most of these guys were thinking, they were thinking about going home. they were thinking about how miserable they were that they had to see this through, even if if they agreed that, yes, this is something that we've got to fight for, a common cause with our french allies. but now i can tell you that all of those things were true with ludger. he couldn't wait to get home. he kept talking about, he said i hope this is the final birthday i ever have to celebrate away from home. and as it were, he never got to use the return ticket that he was provided. you know, he never lived to see past, actually, day three of combat here in the area. and i know -- i use his story as an example, because he could have a similar story with a guy who's buried on his left or right, but i just don't know. but i can tell you with his letters, with his words, and i can look just down, just past that red-tiled farm, an

forecast, that henri is tropical depression and moves off the coast, by that time reaches as far as vermont and new hampshire. 9 bottom line is, yes, they dodged a bullet. people have seeing what tropical storms can do, like sandy, which is a much more massive event, but still a big sigh of relief here on eastern long island. >> i bet. i want to bring bill karins into the conversation. we were e-mailing yesterday, because i was on the ground covering sandy and saw the devastation. a lot of folks were worried this was going to do what in fact sandy did. so far, so good, it seems like, but combining of what we heard from ron and kathy, we're not yet out of the woods yet. it seems as though at this point it slowed down. so where are we? >> a sigh of relief. we predict what storms will be like, but this storm is an underperforming one. three to five had the foot surge was the potential. i didn't see anything over a foot, i didn't see in surge damages. power outages, we now have 125,000 people without power, much less than predicted. it's horrible for the people who have lost power, mostly areas

already in vermont probably that's what you have. so many people almost 90% of adults have been vaccinated in vermont that you really do have a level of immunity. in places, particularly in the south, where in some place only a third of adults have been vaccinated, we won't reach that for a long time. but the level of deaths we're seeing now is the tip of the iceberg. 500 americans die d yesterday, but death is a lagging indicator. typically it lags if he cans by two to three weeks. two to three weeks ago there were 33,000 cases per day that. generated 500 deaths. right now we're three times that level so i suspect by the end of this month we'll be tipping 1500 deaths per day. almost every one of those folks unvaccinated. >> we're seeing these vaccinated mandates come in, such as new york city, the federal government, some states talking about doing the same. new york city, you go to a restaurant, broadway show, see a movie, you have to show that you've been vaccinated. we could see this across the country. to you, how much will that

inland, the main concern is heavy rain, even places like upstate new york, vermont, even new hampshire looking at several inches of rain. keep in mind a lot of these same areas picked up several inches of rain from the remnants of fred earlier this week, so that ground is completely saturated long before the rain from henri comes in, which is why you have the flash flood threat across several states. one thing to take into account, when the ground is saturated it makes it easier for the wind to bring down trees and power lines, often when the ground is that wet it takes about 40 to 60 mile per hour winds we'll be experiencing 60, 80 potentially higher wind gusts off and on sunday into monday. so you have to take that into account. another thing, stretching from north carolina up towards massachusetts high surf and rip currents are going to be a concern. so going to the beach in virginia or north carolina, keep in mind even though the storm may not make landfall where you are, you are going to have direct impacts from the storm. timing is off depending on the model you look at. american

bill scott in vermont, where the vaccination rate is the highest in the country. and he's left it to school districts to mandate their masking policy. and then florida's ron de santis where, on friday, the state topped its highest one-day tally for new infections for the third time last week. according to the cdc, de santis has of course threatened to withhold funding from public school boards that mandate masks. now, both republicans, both facing re-election. but very different responses and results. your thoughts, madam governor? >> well, again, i think it points to the fact that, you know, you have republicans like governor hogan in maryland, the governor in vermont who you just showed, others like governor baker who are trying to mobilize efforts to follow the science. you have ron de santis who you pointed to, and governor parsons in missouri who is doing everybody possible to undermine public health, undermining the science. it is a dangerous situation in which to live. i live 25 miles from the missouri/kansas border. lots of communities in the area. what we

up in vermont, they're crushing the injection game, becoming the first state to reach an 80% vaccine( cheers and applause ) that's fantastic. it's amazing. they should be proud of themselves. it's all thanks to vermont's vaccine incentive program: anyone who doesn't get a shot gets a personal visit from bernie sanders. ( as bernie ) "knock-knock, ding-dong! open the damn door and show me your vaccination card! don't make me take off my mittens! and of and while i'm here i gotta ask. what's the soup situation in this house? i smell navy bean. do not lie to me!" we're all anticipating the showdown, america's joe biden versus russian president vladimir putin, seen here laughing at the last joke you'll ever tell. back in march, biden called putin a "killer," but yesterday, the definitely-a-murderer explained that all the bad things he is accused of, americans do, too. >> ( translated ): we have a saying: "don't be mad at the mirror if you are ugly. it has nothing to do with you personally. but if somebody blames us for something, what i say is, why don't you look at yourselves? you will

that means on any given day, only 30 people in the entire state of vermont got covid-19.rby maine, which has vaccinated 80% of their adults has seen six new cases per 100,000. the state with the lowest vaccination rates are seeing ten to 20 times as many new cases per 100,000 people. it's moving like wild fire through the unvaccinated community. it's heart breaking, particularly because it's preventible. that's why we're doing everything we can to get more people vaccinated. we're seeing real results. the past two weeks, we've seen a 55% increase in the average number of new people getting vaccinated every day. the last seven days alone, nearly three million americans have gotten the first shot. that's the highest seven day total in a month. importantly, the past two weeks, the eight states 20 the highest current case rates have seen a doubling of the number of people newly vaccinated each day. the message is getting through apparently. louisiana has seen a 212% increase in the average number of newly vaccinated people in that state per day going from 3,600 to over 11,000

we are lucky in vermont, 80% vaccine rate yesterday. the governor who has been incredibly good was able to announce the reopening. in vermont, the vaccines worked. we are a rural state. how do we address this difference in vaccination uptake in rural areas versus urban areas? the cdc found that in rural counties, 39% versus 46%. knowing of the rural access differences, are there things they can do better to reach rural communities? >> i think with rural communities there are lessons we are learning from covid-19. we need to be finding individuals in those communities that can serve as representatives for vaccination in general. folks that are posted leaders in those communities -- trusted leaders in those communities. they can be charged leaders -- church leaders, farmers, rural outreach in the forming community -- farming community. to communicate why those who got the vaccine did so. >> the covid vaccine was free. it made a huge difference, it eliminated the barrier. from a public health standpoint to have vaccines be free. >> we need

i even remember terrible flooding in vermont. that's something to take vote. urban flooding is much worse than rural flooding. i mean, west central tennessee, west of nashville, 17 inches. the greater 24 hour rainfall for the state of tennessee. 15 fatalities and 30 missing. can you imagine with 7, 8, 9 inches already. and toss in another 6 or 7 inches. the urban flooding in the cities where it funnels down through, of course, the streets and the avenues on concrete and asphalt could be much, much worse. to the north and northeast, the winds are still going to remain strong enough where we could see some more power outages. very interesting. all the rain is in the western flarng. as i pointed out earlier, i want to remind everyone, down to the south of this line here, you see where this rain is converging, it is started last night during the concert. and it's going to stay there all day long. we have a system to the south that's preventing it from moving any more to the south. it's enhancing the rain. we have problems here in the southern flank with heavy rain

what, they wondered, had happened to those girls in the four years they had been in vermont. >> as farn only attribute that to, you them living in a house with a master manipulator. >> the notion of matt leili as a master manipulator would become a central theme when his murder trial began in january 2016. >> morning, ladies and gentlemen. >> in her opening statement to the jury, prosecutor lisa jones depicted matt leili as a couch potato sponging off his hard-working wife. >> nique leili was the breadwinner. the family was in debt, up to $300,000 in debt. >> furthermore, jones said, matt leili tried to control his wife by turning their home into a virtual north korea. with cameras and recording devices everywhere. lenses aimed at them as they sat on the couch and watched tv. >> you will take a look into this marriage, ladies and gentlemen, in this case. you will hear the voices of nique leili and the defendant in this case arguing. >> nique's murder, she claimed, was simply matt leili's final act of control. >> i think they got into an argument. that he wanted to have sex. that he dru

we have seen republican politicians, phil scott in vermont, do the thing where they really go out day after day to make sure that their state is vaccinated. there are republican governors who have done that. i think mike dewine has done it to a certain extent, but i think the veto power of the heckler, the heckler's veto, jeff, that we saw from that crowd, it cows everyone. that is the thing. they are scared of those people. they do not want to get cross wise of them. >> that's the tendency of today's republican party. when we look at anti-vaccination sentiment and its roots in qanon, qanon which already had this deep fear of big pharma, this idea that elites were harvesting strange substances and trying to put it in their bodies or who knows what, these conspiracy theories. qanon is a fringe movement, a fringe movement that we know at this point in many ways drives the republican party. what you're saying resonates with me. i'm a vermonter, not a republican, but i appreciate my governor phil scott for giving me the best vaccination defense in the nation. not listening to qanon, not l

that means on any given day only 30 people in the entire state of vermont got covid-19.ch has vaccinated almost 80% of their adults, has seen just six new cases per 100,000. but the state with the lowest vaccination rates are seeing 10 to 20 times as many new cases per 100,000 people. it's moving like wildfire through the unvaccinated community. and it's heartbreaking, particularly because it's preventible. that's why we're doing everything we can to get more people vaccinated. and we're seeing real results. in the past two weeks we've seen a 55% increase in the average number of new people getting vaccinated every day. in the last seven days alone, nearly 3 million americans have gotten their first shot. that's the highest seven-day total in a month. importantly, over the past two weeks, the eight states with the highest current case rates have seen the doubling of the number of people newly vaccinated each day. the message is getting through, apparently. louisiana has seen a 212% increase in the average number of new day vaccinated people in that state per day. going f
