Anthony fauci telling 60 minutes that despite its denials, the white house has, in fact, tried to muzzle him preventing him from making some Television Appearances to inform the public. I certainly have not been allowed to go on many, many, many shows that have asked for me. Reporter dr. Fauci also saying he wasnt surprised President Trump contracted covid. I was worried that he was going to get sick when i saw him in a completely precarious situation of crowded, no separation between people and almost nobody wearing a mask. When i saw that on tv, i said, oh, my goodness. Nothing good can come out of that. Thats got to be a problem. And then sure enough it turned out to be a superspreader event. Reporter the u. S.

The National Governors association sending the Trump Administration a least of 3 dozen questions about how will the vaccine be selected and how will it be funded and distributed. George. Okay, lets talk to the new york governor about that. Andrew cuomo out with a new book, american crisis leadership lessons from the covid19 pandemic. Governor, thank you for joining us again this morning. Were seeing this surge across the country right now. Several experts warning that the next two to three months could actually be the worst of the pandemic. How worried are you about new york . Whats your strategy to stop any surge . Thanks, good to be with you, george. I think the experts are right and have been saying it all along, right . They said the fall was going to see a viral surge, and it makes sense, the weather gets colder, people go inside, schools open, colleges open. Theres less outdoor activity. So, if you listen to the scientists, we expected this. Here in new york, our statewide number is very good. Were about 1 infection rate which is one of the lowest in the United States and, remember, we started with the highest infection rate, were now down to the lowest. But its going to be a precarious fall across the country. Theres no doubt about that. You put the viral increase of the fall together with this, quote unquote, covid fatigue and thats a bad combination. The fatigue, i think, is in part, yes, weve been doing this for a long time but people dont know who to believe, george. And what to believe. And i think thats a major problem. We played politics with this disease. I do want to ask you about that, especially as it pertains to the vaccine. We saw dr. Fauci last night say that he trusts the experts at the fda. How confident are you in the approval process of the fda right now . Well, first, how confident am i . Im not that confident. But my opinion doesnt matter. I dont believe the American People are that confident. Youre going to say to the American People now, heres a vaccine, it was new, it was done quickly, but trust this federal administration and their Health Administration that its safe . And were not 100 sure of the consequences. I think its going to be a very skeptical American Public about taking the vaccine and they should be. So whats it going to take to convince you that its safe, that its effective, that it should be distributed . To do in new york, well put together our own group of doctors and medical experts to review the vaccine and the efficacy and protocol, and if they say its safe, then ill go to the people of new york and i will say its safe. With that credibility but i believe all across the country youre going to need someone other than this fda and this cdc saying its safe. And that means well need a change in the white house, is that what youre saying . Look, i personally hope for a change in the white house but put that aside, if this administration continued, the cdc, george, and the fda doesnt have any credibility. You have dr. Fauci now saying that they basically tried to muzzle him. He has the highest credibility in the nation on this issue, and then not only is the vaccine safe, this administration is learning nothing from the past. What theyre saying is that the day we get the vaccine, thats when it ends, thats not true. The day we get the vaccine, we then have to prove to the American People its safe, we then have to administer millions of doses and that is a massive undertaking that this administration hasnt even talked about and is going to take months and if its not done right, will be a debacle like back in january and february, when we made so many mistakes with this covid virus. This is going to be the first election in a century during a pandemic. How confident are you that its going to go smoothly . I dont think its going to go smoothly. I think the president has already been establishing his grounds to refute the election results. Hes been talking about fraud and mailin ballots for weeks, george. Now, somebody who is confident about victory on Election Night doesnt discredit the results, right . So i think the president knows hes in trouble on Election Night and i think hes already designing the case to allege voter fraud through the election. Governor cuomo, thanks for your time this morning. Thank you. Amy. Well, george, now to the latest on the race for the white house, just 15 days until the final votes and this morning early inperson voting kicked off in the key battleground state of florida. At least 28. 1 Million People have voted early around the country so far. A new record actually being set every single day as both candidates hit the swing states hard in the home stretch. Our mary bruce in washington tracking it all for us. Good morning, mary. Reporter amy, good morning. Just over two weeks to go and that isnt a lot of time to change the trajectory of this race. President trump is down in the polls and now scrambling to hold on to states he won comfortably in 2016, but joe bidens team is warning do not underestimate the president s ability to fight back and win this thing. 15 days to go and the candidates are pounding the trail as they enter the final stretch. Its go time. Get out and vote. Reporter down in the polls the president is crisscrossing crucial states and seeming to admit a loss is possible. If i lose, what do i do . Reporter in las vegas sunday, trump making a rare visit to church attending this packed Indoor Service not wearing a mask. At a rally overnight in carson city, he continued to insist the country is on the mend, mocking his rival, joe biden, for saying hell follow the science. Hell listen to the scientists. If i listened totally to the scientists, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression. Reporter but over 12 million americans are currently unemployed and congress is still fighting over a stimulus plan. As deaths in the u. S. Climb past 219,000, biden sunday in the critical battleground state of North Carolina holding a drivein rally saying trumps rosy picture of the pandemic is flatout wrong. Turn the corner . Things are getting worse. He continues to lie to us about the circumstances. Reporter biden is leading trump by 12 points nationally according to our latest poll, but his team isnt taking anything for granted blasting out a memo warning donald trump can still win this race and urging biden supporters not to grow complacent. Trump is ramping up his rallies campaigning heavily in states he narrowly won in 2016, like wisconsin and michigan, where saturday he ripped into the Governor Gretchen Whitmer just one week after the fbi revealed she was the target of an alleged domestic terror plot to kidnap her. You got to get your governor to open up your state. Lock them all up. Reporter whitmer says the president s words are putting her life in danger. The president is at it again and inspiring and incentivizing and inciting this kind of domestic terrorism. It is wrong. Its got to end. Reporter now on the stimulus, the window to get something done is closing. Now House Speaker pelosi is issuing a deadline, she wants to see a deal by tomorrow. That seems impossible. The two sides are still far apart on how much to spend and what to spend it on meaning millions of americans who are looking to washington for relief will have to wait until after the election. Amy . All right, mary bruce, thank you for that. We will have complete coverage of the president ial debate on thursday, george is anchoring with our Political Team. It all starts at 8 00 p. M. Eastern.
