The a5. china has not rolled out any updated boosters, unlike the us and many european countries, although in the uk for example they have been using ba one bivalent which is also very outdated, so i think theissueis also very outdated, so i think the issue is that the virus has mutated substantially and the vaccines currently are just not, the muscular vaccines are just not very good against infection anymore against omicron. they are still good and decent against hospitalisation but china has ...

Different mutations and different variants. in china, where it has not been allowed to spread, are they seeing these variants or are they seeing a more original strain? the original strain is almost extinct. they are seeing different omicron subvariants, bf.7 which is a subtype of ba.5. china has not rolled out en masse any updated boosters, unlike the us and many european countries, although in the uk for example, they have been using ba.i bivalent which is also very outdated. so i think the is...

They could have on the winter season. what does the analysis say? >> we know that the viruses tend to spread more as the weather gets cooler and dryer. so covid is still around. thats very clear. what this analysis did, this was from the commonwealth fund and yale. they said, look, if you stay at the current booster rate, whats going to happen? and what they expect is that, you know, well peak around 1,000 deaths per day again some time over the fall and winter. if we increase eligible to closer...

Not, the prime minister has shown leadership throughout. when we look at the emergence of omicron and what happened, as ministers we receive lots of advice notjust on the public health risk, which is hugely important advice, we get advice on what might be the impact of certain measures on the economy, on education, on other health issues, mental health, cancer outcomes, these are all vitally important and what the prime minister has to do, and only pecan can as the head of government, is to bala...

With, and i know that were providing the guidance based on the data, just like i just told you, in terms of our vaccination rate, booster rate, third in the country. we need to get better at that, and were going to use this time frame to really work with everybody to talk about how we can get voluntarily the residents in the state of rhode island to get more boosters. the other thing that were doing, too, alisyn, is that were the most tested state in the country. so, when our numbers were being ...

But if you want to protect against severe disease, and that will be the parameter of getting out of this difficult phase, then that is where boosters come in, that is where therapy comes in, and that is where vaccination comes in. >> lets talk about boosting. this to me is a stand out, in a bad way, an outlier, we saw -- we did not have -- we had elevated levels of mortality per thousand cases of residents compared to other places, i think a huge part of that is a our health to begin with. we ha...
