changes into the fall. three western states are reinstating restrictions put in place early in the pandemic. most notable is california where every county will have to shut down bars, indoor dining and other indoor activities. 30 counties with about 80% of california's population, that's 32 million people face additional closures. those counties include los angeles which faces a hard lockdown. >> while the city of los angeles's covid-19 threat level remains at orange, we are on the border of going to red. red is when it's -- everything shuts down again, everything, to our strictest level so i do want to warn people that we're close to that. >> look, the move leads a lot of uncertainty to millions of people. a 72-year-old catering business survived wars, recessions, even the owner's heart transplant but since no one is holding catered events, they cannot survive the pandemic. >> as i kept going, you see the writing on the wall. >> there is no light at the end of the tunnel. there is no time line, if you will. you don't know how long it's going to last. >> yeah, especially as there is a resurgence in cases. take a look. in the past two weeks coronavirus cases have increased 47% in california. hospitalizations have almost doubled since the end of june even though the rate of positive cases is down. >> california's two largest school districts will be entirely online when the new school year starts next month. this could have a domino effect on school districts deciding what to do next fall even as the trump administration pushes schools to return to learning. our nick watt in los angeles. >> reporter: christine and boris, massive news out of california. the governor always said he would do this if the numbers got worse. he has made good on his promise. could be a political risk, we will see, but he has now closed every bar in california. he has also closed indoor dining in restaurants and movie theaters and zoos and museums and also if you live in one of the counties in this state, such as los angeles that is on the governor's watch list because the numbers are particularly bad, then these things are also now closed down again. >> fitness centers, places of worship, offices for non-critical sectors, personal care services, that includes hair salons, barber shops and indoor malls. so, again, these are sectors to close indoor operations. >> also a huge announcement from the los angeles school district. the second biggest district in the country. more than 600,000 students. they say when students return at the end of august, it will not be to classrooms. it will be online only. san diego school district has said exactly the same thing. they both say they will watch the numbers and when the public health situation allows it, then and only then will kids be back in classrooms. listen, as governor newsome of california said, this virus is not going away any time soon. christine and boris, back to you. >> nick, thank you for that. money plays a big role in the decision to keep schools shut. san diego faced a $90 million expense for masks and disinfecting. some schools like new york are looking at hybrid model with students rotating between in person and online classes. >> everybody wants to reopen schools. i want to reopen the schools. everybody wants to reopen the schools. it's not do we reopen or not? you reopen if it is safe to reopen. how do you know if it's safe? you look at the data. we're not going to use our children as the litmus test and we're not going to put our children in a place where their health is in danger. >> now cnn has learned the white house wants to tie any new stimulus money for schools to their reopening. the administration has been told it cannot withhold existing funding to schools to bully them into reopening. big cities like atlanta, nashville, las vegas are delaying. cities like chicago, seattle, miami still weighing their options. speaking of miami, hospitals there are over 90% capacity. the positivity rate in miami-dade county, over 25%. all the major medical indicators heading in the wrong direction. >> miami's now the epicenter of the pandemic. what we were seeing in wuhan six months ago, five months ago, now we are there. so we really need your help. >> there were more than 58,000 new cases reported in the u.s. monday. a leading lab, quest diagnostics, says the surge is causing a delay. as long as seven days now turning around test results. that's a critical problem because people can be unknowingly spreading the virus while they're waiting for results. testing is up but cases are up much more. the virus surge in the south and west reviving one of the biggest concerns early on in the pandemic, a lack of personal protective equipment for health care workers. a cnn investigation finds nearly four months after invoking the defense production act to compel businesses to manufacture equipment, the white house has made sparing use of it. the department of health and human services listed 19 companies that received contracts, but experts say it's not enough and the efforts started far too late. get this, only about half of the masks ordered will be delivered before the end of the year. >> they want you to reuse that mask multiple times and they send it for cleaning. >> it's something we were talking about four months ago. >> the white house has been reluctant to take too active a role in managing supply production and distribution. it is putting the onus on the states. the white house is walking back criticism of anthony fauci. they noted fauci's mistakes. the president himself has made several bad mistakes, misjudgments, false claims about this virus, and now a senior administration official admits the frustration doesn't stem from a lack of confidence in dr. fauci. they say it's them getting questioned about saint anthony. >> passive aggressive. they don't plan to fire dr. fauci. the white house has concluded he can't directly fire him even if he wanted to. >> well, i have a very good relationship with dr. fauci. i've had for a long time, right from the beginning. i find him to be a very nice person. i don't always agree with him. i get along with him very well. i like him personal zbli dr. fauci has been finding ways to be heard even as the white house keeps him off of tv at a webinar with the stanford school of medicine he said the u.s. is seeing surges because it failed to entirely shut down. >> all you needed to do was look at the films on tv of people in some states who went from shutdown to complete throwing caution to the wind. this is a really serious problem. it is truly historic. we haven't even begun to see the end of it yet. >> dr. fauci also says there is no good answer to the question of whether the states or the federal government should lead the way on the pandemic response. the coronavirus has cratered tax revenue and sparked record government stimulus to save the economy. the result, an exploding budget deficit. $864 billion in june alone. 3 trillion in the last 12 months. the government spent hundreds of billions of dollars to support businesses and unemployed workers. as a share of the economy, this deficit is now the biggest since world war ii and more stimulus may be coming. former white house chief of staff mick mulvaney said new stimulus must target the virus, stimulus. he says there are very real risks, including inflation and under delivering to voters ahead of the election. also, the last time in a rush to get checks out, stimulus money was sent to people who had died. now the irs says those checks have been canceled rather than forcing families to return the payments. this really caused a lot of people to be pretty upset about the idea that the stimulus checks were going to people in prison and dead. it shows you the rush to get money out the door, just how serious this coronavirus crisis is. >> yeah. mulvaney making clear it may not be something popular to talk about among republicans, just the idea that testing is inadequate across the country. >> right. ten minutes past the hour. antibodies that protect you from coronavirus may not last very long. we're going to break down what that means for long term and short-term treatments. we'll be right back. you're clearly someone who takes care of yourself. so when it comes to screening for colon cancer,

has a warning for visitors from high risk states and another big sporting event bites the dust. cnn is covering the pandemic from coast to coast. >> reporter: i'm diane gallagher in atlanta where georgia governor brian kemp reactivated covid-19 overflow hospital on friday. that's the same day the state hit a record number of new cases with nearly 4500. his relationship with atlanta's mayor seemingly recharged. the mayor is getting some support from a governor. new york's andrew cuomo offered some support to atlanta saying new york is in a more stable place now, new york could offer testing, tracing, and strategy resources to the mayor as numbers continue to rise here in atlanta. >> reporter: i'm erica hill in new york where governor andrew cuomo has announced an emergency health order to enforce the mandatory 14-day quarantine in new york state for travelers coming from 19 states that have a positivity rate of 10% or higher. when arriving at any airport in new york state, travelers will be given a form. they'll be required to provide local contact information so they can follow up to make sure they're following the quarantine. if anybody leaves the airport without filling out that form, without providing the information, they're subject to a summons and immediate fine of $2,000. i'm pete mondunteen, major airlines are calling for a recovery and they've seen a

the covid worries going on organizers thought it would be safe not to have it this year. two experimental coronavirus vaccines have been given fast track status by the food & drug administration. these are biontech and pfizer. if the trials are successful, the company says they expect to make up to 100 million doses by the end of this year and potentially $1.2 billion doses by the end of next year. new research suggests immunity could be brief and that could have a significant implication for research. >> reporter: christine and boris, this study out of the u.k. does suggest that natural immunity from having covid could decline within months. now this study hasn't been peer reviewed yet and it was done on only 65 patients and 31 health care workers who got antibody tests done regularly. it found that antibody responses started to wane about a month after symptoms first emerged. now this has implications for vaccine development. it could mean that a vaccine has to trigger an antibody response that's stronger than what we might see naturally. it could mean we need boosters since anti body responses might diminish. it could mean we need a vaccine each year, kind of like flu shots. the study also suggests that there could be challenges with natural herd immunity. this is all new and emerging data that certainly needs more study. christine? boris? >> jaclyn howard,

russian authorities claiming it's contained but a whist whistle-blower tells a different story. >> reporter: it was one of the worst chemical reactions in the arctic. at the end of may a fuel spill burst releasing 20,000 tons into nearby rivers. there are clear signs the mining giant is dragging its feet in dealing with the aftermath. the company quickly claimed the damage had been contained saving a nearby lake, but whistle-blower says that's not true. >> translator: it is such an obvious childish lie i couldn't wrap my head around it. obviously i thought we must investigate the lake, but my management had a different view. >> reporter: he was working for russia's state environmental regulator at the time and was one of the first on the site the day of the disaster. he took cnn to the spot where puddles of diesel and gasoline streaks are still clearly visible and the water can literally be set on fire. >> translator: you can see the fuel is still burning and puddles like these stretch all the way down the river and will be polluting it for a very long time. >> reporter: activists say they tried to prevent them from independently investigating it but environmentalist managed to sneak past the guards. what he found was shocking. >> translator: you can see the contamination levels are two to three times what is allowed. >> reporter: it is guided on official data from local data as well as satellite imagery and it continues the cleanup. the company did not respond to cnn for comment. the disaster highlights a wider problem as they look to industrialize the arctic and exploit the natural resources. melting personal ma frost makes similar accidents more likely. some hoped the disaster could turn out to be a watershed moment for environmental protection in russia.

absolutely. i mean, we've been watching the relationship between the world's two largest economies deteriorate throughout 2020. the south china sea has always been a bubbling area of tension but the rhetoric has ramped up after the u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo announced the trump administration was taking a new position, which is to consider china's claims to virtually all of this heavily trafficked body of water, about 1.3 million square miles to be illegal and that the u. sms. wo view any chinese action to harass fischer men, harass hydrocarbon development as unlawful as well. pompeo going on to use tough words saying that the world will not allow beijing to treat the south china sea as the maritime empire. they fired back. the foreign ministry spokesperson calling the u.s. a troublemaker that seeks to undermine regional peace and stability, irresponsible and neglecting history. the fact of the matter is this. there's a huge body of water. there are a number of other countries alongside it that have claims to territory there, including the philippines, vietnam, malaysia, indonesia, brunai and i have flown over the region and i've seen a network of islands that china has built up, manmade islands to help lay claim to almost all of this body of water and the u.s. is positioning itself as kind of a big brother to smaller countries against china, which kind of dwarfs all of these countries that have competing claims to this strategic sea. christine? >> it's been remarkable to watch. almost the militarization of these scholes and small islands so that china can try to make that claim. thank you so much for that, ivan watson for us. dozens of sexual assault allegations are rocking the prestigious saint andrews university in scotland. several women say
