Destroyed in this hurricane, about 14,000 people sought shelter and as of last night 100,000 people in texas without power and thousands in louisiana. Id like to bring in peter hotez. We had to interrupt our conversation regarding coronavirus when the president began speaking. Also jake levine former aide to president obama. Is there concern this could converge and become a super spreader event when we talk about the pandemic . Absolutely. There is a lot of worry because even before this hurricane, texas still had one of the highest rates of transmission of covid19 in the country even though it was 10,000 new cases a day, it was down to 5,000 new cases a day, it is still 5,000 new cases a day and those are confirmed cases and what it really means is five or six times higher than that. Louisiana was around 700 new cases confirmed per day. So pretty screaming high level of transmission, one of the highest areas in the country. You have all that disruption.
