Messaging challenge in the fact that there are rising breakthrough infections in vaccinated people because delta is so transmissible and it behaves differently than earlier strains. but they also still need to emphasize to people that vaccines are the most effective tool they have. they are still highly protective. you are at far, far greater risk of death or severe illness without the vaccines but they have to simultaneously acknowledge the individual risk to vaccinated people varies depending ...

Chickenpox. and it warns trust in the vaccine could be undermined by breakthrough cases. its coming out just hours after president joe biden announced all federal employees need to be vaccinated or submit to regular covid testing. plus republicans on defense, trying to explain where they were, who they spoke to, and why they were wearing body armor on january 6th as a select committee prepares to subpoena key witnesses. i want to get to our breaking news now. the chair of uc san franciscos d...

Julie, morgan mentioned talking down to the american people. we had speaker pelosi talking down to her colleague, kevin mccarthy, when she said he was such a for questioning the science behind returning to the mask restrictions on capitol hill. the regulations have been released and you can be only arrested by capitol police if you fail to comply, not if you just dont wear a mask in the first place. dont have anything better to do at all? >> julie: im so sick of hearing democrats talk on both si...

Vaccinated. look, and its important to understand what vaccines do and what they dont do. put simply the vaccines are designed to save lives and prevent severe illness. theyre highly effective at both. 190 million americans have had at least one shot. of that, 90% are done now and 10% are waiting for the second shot. to those folks who have one shot but not the second, go get the second shot. even if you are overdue for the second shot, its not too late. go get the second shot now. now. the bott...

Political. but they dont want to talk about the 6.5% economic growth of the last quarter, doubled donald trumps best. they dont want to talk about the 850,000 jobs created, thats way beyond anything donald trump could have dreamed of, the stock market was hitting all-time highs. its political because republicans dont want to talk about was actually happening. so of course, this delta variant as we know has 1200 times the viral load of the covid virus that we were accustomed to and vaccinated aga...

Will still test positive and some will still test positive and some will show some symptoms of covid—19. that is expected with almost every vaccine there is. further diseases. the breakthrough cases remain rare and almost all are mild cases. in fact, virtually all hospitalisations and deaths are among the unvaccinated. i also know many of you are wondering if you need a booster shot to add another layer of protection. as of now, my medical advisers say the answer is no. no american needs a boo...

After five months, the third boost. but for now the cdc and fda say there is still not enough evidence for boosters. that guidance expected to change as a troubling number of breakthrough infections are being reported at workplaces, vacation hot spots and among families. >> as we hear more about breakthrough cases, is there any concern about the efficacy of vaccines beginning to wane? >> i think the magic question is when will we need booster, not if we need boosters. it feels right now with the...

Anger inducing. honestly, it backs up care for everybody else whos trying to do the right thing, so its very selfish also. >> people wont even do whats best for themselves. you have people literally burning masks in florida to protest the new indoor mask guidance by the cdc. >> the time youre at the level of burning masks, theres probably little i can do to convince you. i have no idea what burning a mask does than being a political trigger point. there has been very good evidence about masks pr...

Unvaccinated, is that what were reading? >> well, youre right, dana. cdc truly does have a messaging problem. it always seems to leave people more confused after they come up with updated guidance. we have to compare. we played president biden saying masks or vaccinated. things have changed since early may. now we have the delta variant, the dominant variant in the united states and certainly much more contagious than the earlier variant and causing a higher viral load which is sending more peop...

Research tells them that they dont trust the science yet, do we still have freedom in the country? >> sean, thats a lot to unpack and a very short segment but first of all but stuck with the fact that the cdc updated their guidance today and the reason they did that is because the now prevalent delta variance. the motivation behind the updates as it pertains to the delta variant, as thats a goodi idea. unfortunately the messaging was completely lost on their messaging shouldve been been insistin...
