york magazine." she said her job was to report on the governor's every move and alleges he often touched her without her consent, on her arms, shoulders, small of her back, her waist. it led her not to even want to go to events like the one she describes, when she was 25 years old she went to a holiday party at the executive mansion and said the governor approached her and as she described it, held her firmly in place while gesturing to a photographer that he wanted their picture taken. the governor said to her, "i'm sorry, am i making you uncomfortable, i thought we were going steady." it's a moment she subscribed as humiliating, happening in front of her colleagues. she says she felt the governor's actions weren't about wanting to have sex with her but about wanting to show that he had power over her and he used touching and sexual innuendo to stoke fear in women. we've reached out to bateman and haven't heard back. we've reached out to the governor's office. they haven't addressed the specific allegation but he addressed the allegations in toto during a telephone news conference on friday. take a listen. >> i did not do what has been alleged, period. look, it's very simple. i never harassed anyone. i never abused anyone. i never assaulted anyone. now -- and i never would, right? >> reporter: so there you have the governor continuing to deny that he's done anything wrong. i should mention the protest you can hear behind me, they talked about several issues but one of them is wanting cuomo out of office, one more sign that he's losing support not just members of congress but some members of the public as well. >> let's talk about what appears to be the growing list of democrats who are calling on the governor to step down. what can you tell us about that movement? >> reporter: right. these are really the biggest names in politics in new york. we're talking about the majority of the congressional delegation. and not just the majority of the congressional delegation but prominent members of it like jerrold nadler, sean patrick maloney, congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez. also we heard on friday afternoon in a joint statement from the two senators from new york, senate majority leader chuck schumer and kirsten gillibrand coming out together to say the governor should resign, because he's facing multiple allegations. even the folks saying he should resign are saying yes, there should be due process and these investigations should continue but as of right now we feel the governor has lost the confidence of new yorkers. the governor saying he's not going to resign, politics didn't elect him, the people of new york elected him so he's going to stay in place. >> athena jones, thank you so much. new york city mayor bill de blasio announced domestic travelers will no longer have to isolate on april 1 as air travel hits a new pandemic record here in the u.s. more than 1.3 million people passed through the tsa checkpoints, the highest number since march 15 of 2020. spring break now in full swing as people pack the beaches in miami despite the cdc warning that even fully vaccinated people should avoid travel for now. cnn's natasha chen joining me now from miami beach, a popular destination for air travelers. natasha, what are you hearing and seeing? >> reporter: fred, there are a lot of people descend to go this area, not really heeding warnings. we're seeing packed businesses, people not wearing masks on the beach, we're seeing boat traffic behind us. we're talking about more than 50,000 new cases on a given day. so there is still some way to go before we're in the clear. the u.s. hit a new record of covid-19 vaccine doses administered in a single day. more than 2.9 million doses on friday alone. more than one in ten people in the u.s. are now fully vaccinated according to cdc data. and more doses are coming. but there is still some hesitancy hawhen it comes to th vaccine. and it's not just among vaccine communities. >> we're seeing vaccine hesitancy, dealing with white republicans, honestly. >> reporter: but more options for those who do want it. three covid vaccines are now going into arms. astrazeneca tells cnn its phase 3 trial results are coming in the next few weeks after which they'll apply for emergency use authorization. more states are expanding eligible groups for a covid-19 vaccine. as president biden has directed states to make all adults eligible by may 1. but for some people, satisfying the light at the end of the tunnel isn't enough. some spring breakers want to enjoy normal life now. >> i work in a hospital back in st. louis. >> every day in st. louis, trying to get a little freedom down here. because we heard about the rules. >> reporter: more like the lack of them. florida businesses were allowed to reopen at full capacity in late september. but without the ability to enforce mask wearing with fines. >> we're probably one of the few wearing masks, walking around. >> reporter: now miami beach's mayor is bracing for what he fears would be a super spreader. would it make life easier if people didn't come? >> yes. >> reporter: for the spring breakers who do come, he hopes they'll vacation responsibly. >> i'll be blunt. we're trying to survive this. this is not a moment where we're saying everything's great. we recognize that there's a pandemic, there's a crush of people who want to come here, there's real public safety issues that we have to address. and we also worry that this community will become a super spreader for other communities. >> reporter: the same concerns echoed by the nation's top infectious disease expert. >> i don't know if you're a cancun guy or a miami beach guy, how concerned are you about spring break? >> we want people to have a good time but don't put your guard down completely, just be prudent a bit longer. >> reporter: one of the challenges is seeing differences of opinion among leaders at different levels, in different regions, on how to approach all of this. for example, here in florida businesses were allowed to reopen at 100% capacity starting late september, in comparison, there are other states only now starting to relax some of those restrictions, for example los angeles county starting monday will start allowing indoor dining at reduced capacity for the first time in nine months, fred. >> all right, natasha chen, thank you so much for that. coming up at 2:30 eastern time, "coronavirus: one year later." a panel of experts will discuss the past and future of the pandemic including the medical, emotional, and financial tolls taken. right now in louisville, kentucky, people are gathering to remember breonna taylor, the young black woman who was shot and killed by police in her apartment one year ago today. earlier this week, taylor's mother filed internal affairs complaints against six louisville police officers in connection with her daughter's death. jason carroll is at the memorial event in louisville right now. >> reporter: fredericka, the crowd has already heard from tamika palmer, breonna taylor's mother is here in the crowd. members of george floyd's family also here as well. on the stage behind me, civil rights leader benjamin crump who was speaking to the crowd for several minutes. kenneth walker was breonna taylor's boyfriend. you'll remember he was charged with attempted murder for firing at those officers during a botched police raid. of course walker said he only fired because he thought someone was breaking in and the officers never identified themself. the officers saying they did. just this week, fredericka, as you know, a judge dropped those charges against kenneth walker. walker taking the stage, saying the fight for justice must continue. also out here today are a number of people who wanted to hear from the speakers to talk about justice. i wanted to introduce you to olivia alexander and jodie zahn. i wanted to get your impressions about what you've heard so far. >> yeah, i've been really encouraged about the message of community, most importantly. i don't want our city to be represented in a way negatively by the breonna taylor incident. the community message is the most important to me. >> reporter: there's been a lot of talk about police accountability from a number of the protesters, demonstrators who have been out here so far. >> i think it's wild that it's been 365 days and it seems like there's been gradual concessions but still no conviction, still no trial that's criminal. and it kind of i think is jarring to realize we're so far out. and that's not even a thing that can be done on the government level. >> reporter: i know there have been some changes here in louisville, for example banning no-knock warrants. but a lot of folks out here are saying they want to see still more changes. what are some of the concrete changes that you would like to see in terms of police reform? >> that's a really great question. i think there needs to be a stronger relationship between the police and the community in general. i think there's not a great relationship between the black community and the police here in louisville. it would be really great to see some more initiatives around that, around community building within the black community and lmpd. >> reporter: when i was speaking to breonna taylor's mother, she was saying the protests and marching will continue. do you think that's true? >> absolutely, they have incredible endurance. >> reporter: thanks very much for joining us. i did have an opportunity to speak briefly with breonna taylor. i asked her if she would be able to take the stage. she said emotionally, if she could find the strength, she would take the stage. i asked her what she will say, she said she'll just speak from the heart. >> she has to be incredibly strong. that's really difficult. jason carroll, thank you so much for that. coming up, heartbreaking scenes from the border. the biden administration struggling to keep up with a surge in migrants at the u.s. border. cnn talks with families about their difficult journeys to america. plus dr. anthony fauci says he's very concerned that the coronavirus pandemic will trigger a mental health pandemic. a psychologist will be joining me live straight ahead. when it comes to your financial health, just a few small steps can make a real difference. ♪ ♪ ♪ guidance on your terms. confidence feels good. chase. make more of what's yours. many plug-ins are stuck in the past. they release a lot of scent at first but after a while, you barely know they're working. new febreze fade defy plug works differently. it's the first plug-in with built-in technology to digitally control how much scent is released to smell 1st day fresh for 50 days. it even tells you when it's ready to be refilled. upgrade to febreze fade defy plug. antibacterial or moisturizing body wash?

mhm. humana. a more human way to healthcare. as massive influx of might go grants at the southern border has made the situation so dire, cnn has learned, that children detainted in an overcrowded government-run tent facility say they haven't been able to shower for days or even contact their parents. attorneys who spoke with the children say the situation is quickly becoming a humanitarian crisis. this coming as immigration and customs enforcement, i.c.e., says it needs help to manage the surge of immigrants along the u.s./mexico border. i.c.e. is asking for agency volunteers to help with security for a growing wave of migrant families and unaccompanied children. deployments could begin as soon as this weekend. cnn's rosa flores takes a closer look at how critical the wave has become. >> reporter: these are the faces of the immigration surge on the u.s./mexico border. maria mendoza is from i will salvador and hopes to reunite with her family in maryland. roxanna rivera is from honduras and lost everything during a recent hurricane. she says that her dream is to have a house and that that's why she made the trek to the united states. maria and roxanna are among the tens of thousands of migrants who have been encountered by u.s. border authorities in recent weeks. one area alone saw more than 500 migrants enter during an eight-hour period last week, according to a federal source, to expedite processing. authorities started fingerprinting them under this bridge. many unaccompanied children and families are bused to this new temporary immigration processing center in texas. maria de larosa lives across the street and says buses packed with people arrive around the clock. at night she hears children crying. you're scared? >> yeah. >> reporter: from there, some migrants are dropped off by immigration officials and bus stations like this one in brownsville where we met roxanna, maria, and her 6-year-old daughter caitlin. she says she evaded a snake during her journey to the united states and fell off a raft while crossing the rio grande. why is there a surge right now, do you think? both maria and roxanna say they learned from news reports. in their home countries they learned the biden administration is allowing migrant women with children to enter the u.s. and you believed that that was true? >> si. >> reporter: which is not entirely true. the biden administration says it's allowing unaccompanied minors to remain in the u.s. pending immigration cases and some families are allowed in on a case-by-case basis. that perception could be driving some of the surge. health and human services is caring for about 8,800 unaccompanied minors while they're reunited with company and is considering using a nasa sig site to expand bed space. some nonmigrant shelters have seen a spike in the flow of mothers, children. and pregnant women. cindy johnson has volunteered to help thousands of migrants across the river and collected hundreds of postcards with their story. this child is saying that they witness people dying, people getting beaten? cindy says she scanned them and sent them to then-candidate for president joe biden. what was the goal of sending these letters to biden? >> the goal was i wanted them to see their humanity. >> reporter: rosa flores, cnn, along the u.s./mexico border. overnight we spring forward. but don't store away your snow shovels just yet. merely 5.5 million are under a severe blizzard and flash flood warnings. historically severe weather conditions are expected to move eastward over the weekend. heavy snow in nebraska is expected to start later today. in shallow water texas, take a look at what happened just yesterday. >> look at that! >> too dangerously close there. a tornado watch is in effect for portions of northwest texas and east central new mexico until 6:00 p.m. central time. those storms are expected to shift eastward into arkansas, mississippi, and western tennessee today and into tomorrow. and talk about a job with a view. that's are live pictures outside the international space station where two american astronauts, victor glover and michael hopkins, are in the muddle of a lengthy space walk. nasa says the pair will be completing several system upgrades including the station's cooling and communications systems. this is the fifth space walk of the year. coming up next, coronavirus one year later. hard to believe. are we any closer to normalcy?
