Im natalie allen. Cnn newsroom starts right now. Thank you for joining us. The numbers are overwhelming, but consider this, to get a sense of how many people in the u. S. Have been infected with the coronavirus. According to Johns Hopkins university, the total stands at more than 3. 2 million. Thats more than the individual populations of 21 states, washington, d. C. , and puerto rico. 29 states are reporting spikes in cases. You can see them in red and orange here. Single day case records were broken saturday in texas, wisconsin, and south carolina. The mayor of austin calls texas a cautionary tale. Im watching whats happening in cities around the country that have gotten their numbers low and now theyre relaxing and it looks like too many of them are going to try to do what we did in texas when we reopened and austin is a cautionary tale. Cities cannot open in any way that looks like what they used to do before the pandemic. New guidance from the cdc says up to 40 of people infected by the virus may show no symptoms at all. But they can still spread it to others. The agency also says about half the time the virus is transmitted before people get sick. Thats part of the reason social distancing and masks are so important. Speaking of masks, u. S. President trump wore one in public for the first time on saturday. He put it on for his trip to Walter Reed National military medical center. Ahead of the visit, he said he had never been against wearing them. I think it is a great thing to wear a mask. Ive never been against masks, but i do believe they have a time and a place. Until saturday, mr. Trump had resisted pressure to wear one. At least in public for an extended period of time. Floridas governor says the state will not move to the next phase of reopening. He also says hes working with the white house to get more testing amid a staggering rise in hospitalizations. Cnns rapndi kaye has more from florida. Reporter here in the state of florida, we are getting word that the numbers just keep going up. More than 10,360 new cases in the last 24 hours. And 95 deaths in the last 24 hours here in the state of florida. We also know finally the number of hospitalizations here in florida, reporters have been pressing the Governors Office for weeks to release the numbers of those who have covid19 and are in the hospital. We now know more than 7200 people are hospitalized with covid here in florida. More than 560 of them in orange county, where orlando is, where disney world is, and more than 1600 hard hit miamidade. The news keeps getting worse for the Miamidade County in southern florida, that is the hardest hit county, were getting word today that 44 county bus drivers have tested positive for the coronavirus. One of them has died. It is unclear if that driver was symptomatic or what route that driver had taken. Others are quarantining at home. But the numbers just continue to jump, since the state reopened on may 4th, we have seen a 12 more than a 1200 increase in the average number of daily new cases here in the state. Back on may 4th, the average number was about 680. It is now more than 9,000. The governor speaking today good say that hes going to try to get more selfswab testing in place to try and get faster results of those who may have this virus. He said that would be about 36 to 72 hours instead of several days that it is taking right now. Imrandi kaye on singer island, florida. Back to you. The Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom at disney have reopened at florida despite the surging infects in the state. Everyone did have to get their temperature checked and face masks are required. But not everything went smoothly. Cnn spoke with a theme park journalist who was there. She says she got so uncomfortable on a crowded walkway she left. But she says disney did get a lot of things right. Every procedure they laid out for the most part works extremely well. It is everything in between that. Once you start putting a group of people in the parks, issues start popping up, like i saw today and a few other things. When there is lines, people stand in them. It is working incredibly well, it is working at Orlando Universal well. It is the type of thing, when there is a line you dont expect like today and arent those lines, we dont know what to do because all of us havent been in this situation. The employees, the guests, everyone. Almost all performances have been suspended at the park for now. Epcot and Hollywood Studios are set to open their doors wednesday. The coronavirus is, of course, raging through latin america and the caribbean, brazil as we have been reporting for many days is the second worst affected country in the world after the United States. It reported more than 39,000 new cases saturday, bringing the total past 1. 8 million. And the countrys most high profile patient, president jair bolsonaro, is touting a controversial drug. Bill weir reports from brazil. Reporter here in brazil, that covid19 curve continues to go completely in the wrong direction, averaging over a thousand deaths a day. Now over 1. 8 million confirmed cases, but with a lack of testing, all across this vast country, a lot of experts believe that number is off by at least a factor of 5 or 10. President jair bolsonaro, the most famous covid19 patient in brazil, continues to promote his prescription of hydroxychloroquine, the anti antimalaria drug hes so fond of. Im in the center of brazil today, the geographic center, big agricultural region, i met a doctor who spent ten days in intensive care. Now his boss, the supervisor of his hospital is in intensive care. I asked him about bolsonaros prescription, he said he took those antimalaria drugs and they did not work at all for him and he prescribes them because he has no other choice. Theyre cheap, theyre available. He says otherwise what do i give my patients . Water . He also said that for a lot of the patients in this rural agricultural area, the other choice to infection is poverty or starvation. And so it doesnt take much encouragement from the man in charge for people to get back to work, for people to heed that call. So that comes down then to the only way to protect themselves, to try to flatten this curve here is mask wearing, social distancing, quarantines, we know the president s not fond of that. And the president even though he was ordered to wear a mask by a judge, back in june, defied that time and time again, flew to other states, would wait in the crowds with hugs and handshakes. We have seen him wear the mask, though he took it off the day he announced he had it. It will be interesting to see after if he comes through, hopefully he comes through this, if it will change his mind about the other precautions. His wife and daughters tested negative for covid19. The bolsonaros. But now it is just places are bracing for what may be another wave that never really went down as more and more cases become evident all around this country. Im bill weir, cnn, brazil. Former special Counsel Robert Mueller is making a rare statement defending his indictment of roger stone. Thats because stones loyalty to the president may have just saved him from a lengthy prison sentence. Well discuss that coming up here. When we started our business we were paying an arm and a leg for postage. I remember setting up shipstation. One or two clicks and everything was up and running. I was printing out labels and saving money. Shipstation saves us so much time. It makes it really easy and seamless. Pick an order, print everything you need, slap the label onto the box, and its ready to go. Our costs for shipping were cut in half. Just like that. Shipstation. The 1 choice of online sellers. Go to shipstation. Com tv and get 2 months free. Im a talking dog. The other issue. Oh. Im scratching like crazy. Youve got some allergic itch with skin inflammation. Apoquel can work on that itch in as little as 4 hours, whether its a new or chronic problem. And apoquels treated over 8 million dogs. Nice. And. The talking dog thing . Is it bothering you . No. Itching like a dog is bothering me. Until dogs can speak for themselves, you have to. When allergic itch is a problem, ask for apoquel. Apoquel is for the control of itch associated with allergic dermatitis and the control of Atopic Dermatitis in dogs. Do not use apoquel in dogs less than 12 months old or those with serious infections. Apoquel may increase the chance of developing serious infections and may cause existing parasitic skin infestations or preexisting cancers to worsen. Do not use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs. Most common side effects are vomiting and diarrhea. Feeling better . Im speechless. Thanks for the apoquel. Aw. Thats what friends are for. Ask your veterinarian for apoquel next to you, apoquel is a dogs best friend. According to Johns Hopkins university, the total of coronavirus cases in the United States stands at more than 3. 2 million, 29 states are reporting spikes in cases. You can see them here in red and orange. Single day case records were broken saturday in texas, wisconsin, and south carolina. New guidance from the cdc says up to 40 of people infected by the virus may show no symptoms at all, but they can still spread it to others. Were going to talk about the latest developments with my guest, joining me from toulouse, france, is shawn griffith, she led hong kongs inquiry into sars in 2003. Thank you so much for joining us. Good to see you. Good to have you on again. Thanks. As of saturday, the United States has 61,352 new cases and we keep setting new records every day. What does that tell you about the situation we are in here . From an external perspective, it shows that youre not really in control of the virus. The epidemic is increasing, the numbers keep as you say keep breaking the records, which is a really unfortunate record to keep breaking. And it is a very serious situation because obviously covid is running rife, particularly in those states that show red on your map. It is hard to fathom, isnt it, how quickly states like florida and even West Virginia now, louisiana, south carolina, are surgie ining and so rapidly. What should states do to try to turn this back . I think they need to get public messages out, that this is a serious disease. This is a sense that it doesnt seem to matter if you get covid, i read about covid parties, but thats just ridiculous to think this isnt a serious disease. It can affect any of us. It is more likely to affect older people, more likely to kill people who are older with a preexisting condition. At the same time, young people can also contract it and there are longterm consequences of having the disease. So really it is a matter of saying what can we do as individuals and what can we do as authorities. And so for individuals, it is remembering social distancing, remember social hygiene and i would advise Face Covering from mask wearing and for the states, they need to think about what lockdown measures should be in place to stop the spread of disease. It seems to be increasing, increasing, increasing. And we had as we head toward winter, we add in flu and the population is poor. We also now have seen this new development from the cdc which estimates 40 of people infected dont have any symptoms. How does that complicate the situation . It means that if you dont feel unwell, you think i havent got it, but in fact you can be infectious. If youre close to somebody who is vulnerable, then they will get the infection or they may well get the infection. What you need to do is remember that each and every one of us needs to take those hand washing precautions, wear Face Coverings, needs s ts to remem social distance, and remember that when we go shopping, when we go out for a meal, remember when with friends, we need to remember that though we have no symptoms, we could be infectious. And how long could it now take, do you think, for the u. S. To get out from under this . It will depend on what measures are taken. And i think, you know, i think that people thats why im really emphasizing it is the measures you take. We we can hope there is going to be a vaccine, but the vaccine isnt with us yet and then the question is, who gets the vaccine. Having a vaccine is not necessarily the answer. Were Getting Better at treating people. But a lot of the Hospital System under pressure that dont rely on the Hospital System. It is going to be about the Public Health precautionary measures, which will, you know if you get symptoms, get tested, go into isolation, make sure your contacts are also tested and are in isolation and so that we can break the chain of transmission. Thats what we need to do and need to do it many times over when you have a huge surge in so many places. Yeah, and the threat here is hospitals being overrun, florida, Miamidade County, is seeing over 100 increase in ventilators. There are a lot of very sick people in these hospitals and even manpower could be short at some point and that would put the United States in a situation that could be, well, quite frankly, historic. Well, the unfortunate thing is that we saw in wuhan, where the disease started in january, it was those pictures of overwhelmed hospitals, healthcare staff, who are getting sick, and finding themselves we know that theyre at risk because theyre closer to the virus, it is the fact that the Healthcare System can be overwhelmed. It was overwhelmed in northern italy and so the states have plenty of time to look at these messages. Thats what is so unfortunate. And we you will start to run out of protective equipment, you will start to run out of ventilators if you cant stop the curb this disease and priority size wize who gets car. It is very serious that people think hard about how we can prevent the disease, and think hard how we can best intervene. Really important that you stress that people in these states must get proper information, you know. This has been a very much a conflict here in the United States. Young people as you mentioned havent taken it seriously. I saw one report today where a young woman who was 30 years old in a hospital died and the last words to the nurse was, i got this wrong. I thought it was a hoax. That just goes to show you how far we are to getting the message straight. You really have to get the message straight. This is not a hoax. It can affect young people. It can also affect children. So to think it doesnt is incorrect and sometimes they can get an extremely severe reaction. So it is a serious disease. It will it can be controlled if we all take it seriously. If you think of it as a hoax, it is not a hoax. It is a real disease. You look across the world, you look at brazil, mexico, you look at indonesia, pakistan, india, theyre all seeing increases in numbers of cases, increases in deaths and the deaths are among the most vulnerable and the elderly. So, you know, young people it your grannie youre protecting when you take the measures if not yourself. We always appreciate your expertise, sian griffiths joining us from fltoulouse, france, thank you so much. Thank you. Two republican senators have broken ranks with u. S. President donald trump after he commuted the prison sentence of his long time friend and ally roger stone. Senators mitt romney and pat toomey both denounced clemency for stone, even though most other republican lawmakers have remained quiet on the matter. Stone was convicted of seven felonies including lying to congress and witness tampering. The president on saturday doubled down on his action, defying what the attorney general said about the stone case. Roger stone was treated horribly. Roger stone was treated very unfairly. Roger stone was brought into this witchhunt, this old political witchhunt and the mueller scam, it is a scam, because it has been proven false, and he was treated very unfairly. What i did what i did, i will tell you this, people are extremely happy because in this country they want justice. And roger stone was not treated properly. Well, as you know, the stone case was prosecuted while i was attorney general. And i supported it. I think it was established, he was convicted of obstructioning congress and witness tampering and i thought that was a righteous prosecution. And i was happy that he was convicted. Most thought it was a righteous conviction there prosecution of roger stone. The former special counsel of the russia investigation Robert Mueller made areacting to trump action. In the washington post, he wrote this, i feel compelled to respond both to broad claims that our investigation was illegitimate and our motives were improper and to specific claims that roger stone was a victim of our office. The russia investigation was of paramount importance, stone was prosecuted and convicted because he committed federal crimes. He remains a convicted felon and rightly so. Lets get more perspective now on this, joining me from london, inderjeet parmar, a visiting professor at the London School of economics. Thank you for coming on. Thank you, good morning. Good morning to you. There has been no shortage of outrage over this move by President Trump, a cnn legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin called the president s move the most corrupt and cronyistic act in perhaps all of recent history. What are your thoughts . Well, it is within his constitutional remitt. On the other hand, the on commutation of a sentence doesnt mean a pardon, doesnt mean the person is not guilty, but what it does show, if you like, is that President Trump is continuing to declare war on what he would call the deep state and he wants to wear again the mantle of the champion of the people who is draining the swamp and so on and still fighting that war. But what he shows is that now Something Like 7 of his advisers who are convicted of various crimes, some of them are serving sentences. But President Trump wants to try to exonerate himself by exonerating the people who basically acted on his behalf, even if not necessarily with his own knowledge. So hes basically doing the opposite of draining the swamp as a promise he made to the american people. On another topic involving the president , he finally wore a mask in this pandemic. Took a minute. Who knows if hell continue because he doesnt like the look of it, but he bent pressure from his team. What could be the significance when you consider he has staunchly rebuffed recommendations from Top Health Officials as cases surge in the u. S. , and he does impact his supporters, his country has had serious conflicts over mask wearing because they just havent gotten that leadership from this president. Yes, i think what it suggests is that President Trumps recent strategy of that there is no pandemic, there is no problem, people will get used to it, it wont make any impact and so on, has been basically contradicted by facts on the ground. There is an objective reality about a pandemic. You cant just wish it away. And as it moves closer to his political heartlands, it effectively has had massive political effects and there is a great fear among the gop leadership that theyre going to lose the senate and possibly quite badly. The number of states which are safe, republican states like iowa, for example, now appear to be coming into play. And from what reports that ive read it suggests the gop leadership is putting pressure on the Trump Administration to take this a lot more seriously, handle it better and effectively hes got nountil about labor d to save the day. Hes sinking in the polls. Hes behind in key states which he won in 2016 like florida, for example, and battleground states as well, and also nationally, and he also appears to hit a low of 78 loyalty approval among his gop voters as well. So there is a kind of massive shift going on, which is sort of taking the rug from under his feet and the gop leadership is keeping a good eye on this now. And theyre even casting around for other candidates in future elections as well. I think theyre losing a little bit of confidence and giving hmm a deadline to get it right by labor day or youre done. Mask wearing may be a signal of a change of strategy. Perhaps. Well wait and see. You recently cowrote an article stating that mismanagement of the covid crisis on behalf of the president coupled with racial upheaval we have seen over Police Brutality, and the president s response to that have contributed to a terrible but perfect political storm. Can you elaborate . Yes, any storm of this character will take me a long time in the making. So President Trump, if you like, is the person in charge. Hes responsible and hes got to take responsibility for a large amount of the outcomes. But if you like, longterm shift has been occurring. And the floyd killing has taken away the kind of support for the police and his ideas about White Nationalism and minorities are the problem and so on. That brought that home, thats taken the rug from under his feet. The pandemic hit minorities and workers very, very hard, much harder than most other people, thats taken a big hit on that front too, but also hes hit the economy, which is a second area he was going to give america back to the ordinary people, his people, and hes going to rekind of strengthen the economy. That there is two things together have actually removed the ground from under his feet and hes lost his two main kind of planks that he stood for. I think hes therefore floundering. The majority of Public Opinion in america thinks race and racism and Police Brutality are major problems. And the economy is in a terrible situation. And i think those two things combined have made the current position of President Trump rather desperate. It is a terrible, but kind of perfect storm too. Inderjeet parmar, thank you for your time. Thank you. Coming up here, covid19 cases in the u. S. As we mentioned are soaring. But other countries have managed to stifle the spread. Well have details on the shocking comparison. Also, protests and coronavirus in serbia, how the governments covid19 response is having major consequences for the president there. Well have live reports. Welcome back to our viewers here in the u. S. And around the world. Im natalie allen. Youre watching cnn newsroom. We want to get you the latest on the covid19 pandemic here. There is a new estimate of how many people may have coronavirus while showing no symptoms at all. The u. S. Centers for Disease Control says it could be as much as 40 . It is one of the reasons why this virus has been so hard to contain. The number of confirmed cases worldwide is now beyond 12. 7 million, according to Johns Hopkins university. The u. S. Continues to rank number 1 for confirmed cases and for deaths. More than half of all states are seeing a rise in cases. South carolina, texas, and georgia are reporting their highest number of daily new cases yet. For months, President Trump ignored the advice of his Health Experts and refused to wear a face mask in public. But on saturday, he finally caved while visiting u. S. Troops near washington. He made wearing one a political issue as the u. S. Became the worst hit country in the world. And remains so. Around the world, many countries have successfully managed the virus or avoided it altogether. Cnns max foster looks at how they got it right. They need help. Because this horrible virus has hit 188 countries. Reporter President Trump is fond of reminding us that plenty of others have struggled with covid19. But heres the reality. For every 100,000 americans, at least 40 are dead. And the number of new cases is soaring. Meanwhile, many parts of the world have either recovered or avoided the brunt of the pandemic altogether. No two strategies are the same, but Public Health experts tell us that around the world there was some commonality to the places that got it right. They took the virus seriously and they acted quickly. When we shut down as a nation, in reality only about 50 of the nation shut down with regard to other things that were allowed. And many of the other European Countries, 90 , 95 of all activities were shut down. Reporter one strategy, quick and total lockdown. There is a lot we dont know about when covid19 first surfaced. The Chinese Government suppressed the earliest reports of the virus, silencing whistle blowers like dr. Liang who would succumb to the disease. When the scale became clear, china led the way, with the lockdown strategy. They ordered wuhans 11 million residents to stay home. Then more and more 62 million by early february. There was a high toll at the epicenter, but the official nationwide death rate for 100,000 is less than 1. Its curve of new coronavirus cases way down. New zealand was one of the first democracies to shut down. Just two weeks after their first case was discovered at the end of february, the Prime MinisterJacinda Ardern announced mandatory quarantine for anyone entering the country. That was followed by a ban by almost all noncitizens and residents entering at all and after that, total lockdown. The government reports that just over 20 people total have died. Less than 1 per 100,000. Its curve, down. Italy was the first european country to be hit hard by the coronavirus. And proof that covid19 wouldnt stay in east asia. Infections and deaths spiraled, cemeteries filled, and italys hospitals, especially in the hard hit lombardi region were overwhelmed and overrun. More than 100 doctors died in less than two months of the initial outbreak there. But the government knew when to change tact. Eventual eventually locking down the entire country. The reported death toll in italy was high, 58 per 100,000, higher than the u. S. , but it is not climbing much anymore, the covid curve is now down. Denmark also adopted the early lockdown, the Second European country after italy, and before it had a single confirmed death. Its strategy stood in stark contrast to sweden, which refused to lock down to pursue herd immunity. Masks have never been widely adopted in denmark. Mass testing is only just taking off. But extreme social distancing allowed dans to become one of the first European Countries to reopen. It reported ten deaths per 100,000. Their curve way down. When you do testing to that extent, youre going to find more people, youre going to find more cases. I said to my people, slow the testing down please. Reporter another common technique, mass testing for the virus, and tracing its spread. Vietnam had the potential to be a covid19 hot spot. But they knew a lot about fighting disease. They also had an aggressive and innovative communication strategy. The government says not a Single Person has died from covid19 there, their curve down. South korea also made its own tests. Just weeks after chinese scientists published the virus rna sequence. They hadnt even had a single confirmed case at the time, just the genetic code. They quickly ramped up testing, setting up drive through testing, way before it would become commonplace around the world. South korea has a reported total confirmed death rate of 1 per 100,000. And their curve is down. Iceland, i saw firsthand last month. It is home to one of the leading genetics labs in the world. They use that scientific know how to trace the contacts of anyone who had covid19. I met this woman who was told to quarantine, not to be in contact with a waiter who had covid19. Days later, quarantined at home, she also got sick. The government reports 3 per 100,000 have died. Icelands curve is down. I just dont want to wear one myself. It is a recommendation. They recommend it. Reporter it took months for President Trump to say he was all for masks. But the many places around the world they simply werent controversial. While the west endlessly debated Face Coverings, east asia drew on years of standard practice. Japan long declined to lock down, but masks already popular became universal. Official death rate, 1, the covid curve is now down. Americas northern neighbor has had its struggles with coronavirus, especially in elderly care homes. But the canadian government was able to keep its response free of political bickering. Masks arent controversial in canada. Just respectable to be respectful to other people. Reporter canada has a reported 24 deaths per 100,000. Its curve down. Turkey may not have had the mask culture of east asia, but Face Coverings became mandatory in public places, way back in april. Just six people per 100,000 are reported to have died there, and their curve is down. American doctors know this as well as their counterparts abroad, covid19 is new and it requires innovation. Here at the university of oxford, for example, scientists have discovered the power of the steroid dexamethasone according to preliminary results. Germany helped avoid the worst of the epidemic in part by massively increasing its icu capacity. They had so many extra beds, the patients were flown in from strapped hospitals in france and italy. Like the u. S. , germany is a federal system, but chancellor Angela Merkel avoided the pitfalls of political infighting. 11 per 100,000 are reported to have died there, their curve way down. Here in the uk, the government has come under heavy criticism for its response to the virus, particularly how it didnt go into an immediate lockdown. The tension now is focused on places like the university of oxford, which is leading the way in vaccine development. Above all, the most successful countries empower the Public Health experts from the very beginning. The icelandic Prime Minister told me why she stepped out of the way. We listened very closely to the experts and that was actually a very conscious decision. Now were going to follow their guidelines and not put up a show around it. I think were going to be very good with the coronavirus. I think that at some point thats going to sort of just disappear, i hope. You still believe so, disappear . I do, i do, yeah, sure, at some point. Reporter the american president hoping for the best, but scientists will tell you there is still no end in sight to this pandemic. Max foster, cnn, oxford, england. One countrys plan that is not going over well with its people is serbia. This is what is happening, things were calmer saturday, but violent protests rocked the capital belgrade on friday. There were dozens of arrests and at least one stabbing as protesters squared off with riot police. The unrest began over anger at the governments handling of the pandemic, but demonstrations have evolved into wider dissent over the rule of the president. Cnns malania beslovich is tracking this story to tell us what is fueling what is going on here. Reporter good morning, natalie. On saturday, the protests were largely peaceful around a thousand people gathered around the parliament in belgrade, but also in other cities across the country. As you mentioned, these protests started over the plans of president alexander vukkic to put in a weekend curfew because of coronavirus cases in the country. After two nights of rioting, the government was forced to scrap that plan. And but the protests continued. They have now moved into wider discontent with the leadership of the president. What the protesters allege he is lifted lockdown too soon in early may and thats why the virus is surging now. They say he did that so he could allow large gatherings, so he could hold a parliamentary election in june with political campaigning and other events. Now, serbia was first country in europe to hold a National Vote during this pandemic. The party of the president overwhelmingly won, but opposition parties largely boycotted this election. President vucic says thats not true, he lifted lockdown, he says, because the situation with the virus was favorable at the time and hes blamed his political opponents and also what he called foreign agencies for staging these protests. Now, the protests have at times turned quite violent at times, both the protesters and others have been injured. Theyre not led by a Cohesive Group or movement, but what we have been hearing from some of those people attending the protests in the last few days is that far right groups have infiltrated these protests in order to cause violence.

Voters in poland are casting ballots now in a runoff race for president in what could be the countrys most consequential election in decades. The populous right wing president faces a challenge from the more liberal center right mayor of warsaw. Cnns Frederik Pleitgen has been covering the runup to the election for us, hes at a polling place right now. This is certainly election being watched closely, fred. Reporter definitely being watched closely, it is an important election, some say one of the most important elections in this country in decades. Where the direction of this country is really up for grabs. And also, natalie, one that is really, really difficult to hold because of all of the coronavirus restrictions that are in place in poland and around the world. You can see before going into the polling station people are can see all the rules for the coronavirus, you see the distance and then you have to wear the mask like i am now. And then well take you inside. And you can see here, you get inside, first thing you need to do is sanitize. And if we come in, we can see the folks are already lined up, everybody perfectly socially distanced. But this is really what it takes to hold an election in times like this. You need a lot of discipline from the voters, people need to be wearing their masks. And then they just go there to register. They come over here, to actually make the cross on the ballot and then they throw it into the polling and thats how the vote goes. One thing we have to keep in mind, there are 27,000 polling stations like this one all across the country that are all operating under these rules. It is a key election, a very important election.

Major League Baseball is planning to get its season going four months late. But big names have been opting out or testing positive almost every day. Paul vercammen has the details from outside dodger stadium. Reporter at latest count, 57 new deaths, more than 29 new cases here in los angeles county. And two developing stories intersecting this weekend here at dodger stadium. In the parking lot, aggressive covid19 testing continues. Six lanes, a capacity of 6500 tests per day. Theyre trying to flatten the curve here in los angeles. And this might be the biggest testing site in the nation, the city of los angeles thinks that it is. So that continues. Inside the stadium, the Los Angeles Dodgers held an intersquad game and Major League Baseball is ramping up to begin its season with new protocols. Among other things, the players will take a covid19 test every other day. Their temperatures will be taken at least twice a day. There will be no more of these sharing team meals and buffet style, theyre going to have meals given to them in individual containers. There is no arguing with the umpire. Get in his face, youre going to get ejected. One player not on the field for the dodgers, david price, hes opting out for the season, and we also learned that the yankees closer, Araldis Chapman tested positive. This virus does not discriminate. It is it can get to anyone at any point, so it is obviously just another reminder that we have to be vigilant as far as wearing our masks when possible, the distance, the decisions were making away from the field, best we can stay out of harms way. Those are all just constant reminders and by the way, not that anyone that has been in here hasnt done that, including chappy, but it is just important that, you know that it can strike at any time. Reporter when the dodgers intersquad game ended, is sounded like for all the world like dave rogers, the manager, quipped dodger won. They are getting prepped and ready to begin the season against the giants with all the covid19 precautions and thats a week from thursday. Reporting from dodgers stadium, paul vercammen, back to you. Heres the Success Story for you, we can share a few of those. Virus restrictions are prompting a new york city staple to do something he hasnt done before in its 132year history, offer outdoor seating to customers. Were talking about katzs deli, featured in movies, famous for pastrami sandwiches and aisles of indoor seating. Now the tables are outside. The owner of the deli say they have been able to keep all the staff employed despite challenges brought on by the virus. Since so many restaurants and bars are hurting, that certainly is good news.
