Returning to the coronavirus, the cdcs new advisory to not travel over thanksgiving is raising questions. Also this morning, new data on where the virus is spreading the fastest. I spoke earlier with dr. Yvonne maldonado. Lets start with the new request from the cdc. The agency is asking people not to travel for thanksgiving. I want to know what your reaction is to that request, and what do you think will happen if most americans ignore that recommendation . Well, we do know that a lot of americans when surveyed are saying that theyre planning on having a large thanksgiving gathering, and that could just lead to an even bigger surge than what were starting to see now, and that could take us all the way through christmas and maybe even the new year, so we have to be extremely careful about listening to our leadership and trying to really limit the number of people that we come into contact with over the holidays. The cdc has issued a new warning as well that the pandemic is shifting from big cities to small towns. Why do you think that is happening, and what are the biggest concerns . Its really a ripple effect. As it hit the big cities, it started to drift out. Its really like dropping a pebble into a lake. You just start to see it ripple across the country. Pfizer is asking for emergency use authorization from the fda for its vaccine. What are your concerns about distributing this vaccine and the logistical issues . Its really exciting to hear this news. It is a difficult vaccine to distribute, but the company and the operation warp speed groups are really working hard to make sure they can package it and get it out as easily as possible. As you know, there are two other vaccines showing promise. Some people are asking whether doctors can mix these vaccines to potentially speed up delivery . Your thoughts on that . Well, i dont know that were going to have that choice initially. I suspect that there wont be enough vaccine to even get to mixing. There probably will be areas that will get one vaccine and other areas that will get another, so at least in the first few months we probably wont have that choice. Well be able to maybe get one or another vaccine. Our thanks dr. Maldonado. Coming up, the companies that will deliver your Christmas Tree and hang your lights but itll cost you.
