Adults was approved for emergency use in december. so for children we have to wait until the data are collected for adults before we can start our studies in kids. and we are well under way. we also are really -- weve taken a lot of care to make sure we are tracking safety as well as the effectiveness of the vaccine. so were actually moving pretty fast. its just this is much faster than what we see for routine vaccinations. >> what is the data showing right now? >> well, so far i have to say thi...

Said it was corrupt, that it didnt have the support of its people, we dismissed. ultimately we saw what happened when we left. the south vietnamese army just couldnt fight. this is frankly more staggering. the south vietnamese army and south vietnam lasted two years after the americans left. this is a collapse within a matter of days. this may be the most stunning military collapse in history. even the fall of france to hitlers armies took a few weeks, took about five weeks, may to june in 1940....

Afghan government, and that its happened so visibly, often times in the discussion right now, there is this comparison to vietnam and that haunting picture of the embassy there as saigon finally fell. and quite frankly with where we are right now were seeing images like that almost every single day. what i dont quite understand in the decision is the timing of it. anybody thats been in afghanistan or around it knows that this is really the peak of the fighting season. so we really are moving out...

The state department, secretary blinken, "the politico"s in the white house with want to paint this rosy picture that somehow these peace talks at doha were going to deliver a rabbit out of the hat at the 11th hour. guess what? that didnt happen. arthel: so the question everybodys asking is why was america caught so so off guard. but i want to ask you, john, how does this impact president bidens effectiveness on the geopolitical stage, particularly his foreign policy, and the president has a big...
