Coronavirus pandemic that killed 117,000 and infected north of 2. 1 million. 21 states, show you the map. Infection map trending upward. Orange and red. Experts warn if that trend keeps going up, following, spike in hospitalizations and deaths as well. The president meets with the task force in private today. Hoping to get us back on track before the november election. Vice president pence says, there is a Success Story to celebrate. Any talk of trouble is alarmist. Also writes, there is no second coronavirus wave. On that latter point hes technically correct. The nations top expert says we are still in the middle of the first coronavirus wave. 1,000 americans continue to die daily. That is a fact. Not as the Vice President suggests, some media conspiracy designed to ed ted to so w fea and we do not expect to hear in public because the president and Vice President decided to take control of the message . Reporter thats right, john. What we have increasingly seen from this white house, a focus on reopening the economy the last several weeks. Even more recently as we are seeing some of these concerning spikes, 21 states around the country seeing increases in coronavirus cases, and what were hearing from the white house beyond that focus on reopening the economy is also a misleading message both trying to say the testing is the cause of those increases in many of these states, which is not true. In particular some states youve seen testing stay the same or increase, still an increase in coronavirus cases and hearing a message from the Vice President which is arguing that we in the media, talking about these increases are fearmongering and being alarmists, the Vice President writing the media has taken to sounding alarm bells over a second wave of coronavirus infections. Such panic is overblown. What we have also heard from, john, is from dr. Anthony fauci, the governments top Infectious Disease expert. Hes saying we are very much still in that first wave. Thats not cause for celebration. Its cause for concern. Dr. Anthony fauci writing, people keep talking about a second wave. We are still in a first wave. So, john, this administration is certainly trying to navigate what we are seeing and hearing with our own eyes and ears. Concerning increases in several states around the country with at least three states reporting record increases in cases over the last day or so. Versus, also, what this administration wants to focus on, which is reopening the country, returning to that sense of normalcy and driving all of that, john, we have been told by numerous sources, is the president s concerns about his reelection. He believes in his political advisers telling him a recovering economy, reopening the economy, is his surest ticket to reelection and thats where the president s focus is. Jeremy diamond at the white house. Facts, not fearmongering even if you support reopening. You want the facts as you go through it. Appreciate the reporting there. Jeremy notes, all 50 states now, statebystate experiments of reopening. Florida among those to turn its economy back on early. Its republican governor says his state will not shut down again. Cases there are on the uptick. State reporting 2,600 new confirmed cases just this morning. Here with me, doctor the Harvard School of Public Health. Doctor, good to see you. The Vice President says we should be having a celebration, weve contained the coronavirus. Not that all is well but all is better. You look at the map and states trending up. We knew this is not fearmongering, knew inevitable. Reopen the economy, case counts go up. Question, is it manageable . Turn into spikes . Whats the hospitalization infection jate are we in a moment of celebration . I think were far from a moment of celebration overall. We have seen encouraging results from states that have really worked hard to keep the rates down and have continued social distancing and have been opening back up more slowly. Weve seen cases actually continue to drop in those states, but then there is a large number of states in the u. S. Where cases are fournt unfortunately continuing to increase. Even after some decreased they opened back up and weve seen increases. Those are concerning. We have to, i think any state that is celebrating is probably, you know really, we should be concerned about these, and planning to have contingency plans in place in the event these cases become out of control, and that is something that is a real possibility with a virus like this. And help people. At this a few months now, but there are medical terms that get used in lay conversations, sometimes things get confused. You hear the Vice President people in my business trying to fearmonger. Not try to do any such thing. I trust when dr. Fauci says were still in the first wave. Worry about the here and now . Define what that means from a medical perspective . Still in the first wave, how long does it last . And leave whether the second one is for later. Depends a little on what scale youre looking in. Certainly dr. Fauci is looking at the nation. What we see is that there was a, of course, on a daily basis, beginning of this epidemic in the u. S. , cases increased and increased exponentially and have since plateaued off. That means we have never gotten off of this first wave of the epidemic. We essentially stopped the epidemic from growing exponentially across the u. S. , but that shouldnt be satisfying to us. We should be working to get off of the wave. You know, before we can really be celebrating, and so until we do that we really cant see much of a second wave at a National Level that we could see, of course, this first wave really continue to grow, which in some states that could be a second wave. So were very concerned in the fall for that. Very concerned in the fall for that. Sorry to interrupt. I want to show people what that looks like. In the United States, sidebyside with italy. Be clear, italy is a smaller country. Has more national control. We have 50 states here in the United States. Things will are different. This is not apples to apples, however, the trend line what you look at. See the new cases in the United States left of your screen. Still at 20,000 new a day. Italy, numbers different, a smaller country. But that it trajectory of the red line dropping down. That, doctor, if it comes back in italy, they will say this is a second wave because we obtained the first wave and still at a plateau here in the United States in wave one . Exactly right and we want to get that curve down as much as possible. As long as we continue to see increases in many states in the u. S. , its going to be very difficult. So to get it down, get it down, please, correct me if you think im wrong. You need communication all the time. Again, 50 states. Complicated in the United States. The president of the United States doesnt like to wear a mask. Vice president doesnt like to wear a mask in public. President of the United States has a rally planned, 19,000, 20,000 people in an arena this weekend. His top Infectious Disease expert said yesterday, hasnt spoken to the president or briefed him. I think heres why. The president doesnt want to hear this. Would you personally attend the rally . The doctor, no. Personally would not. Im in a highrisk category. Outside better than inside. No crowd better than crowd and crowd better than big crowd. That is the top Infectious Disease expert of the United States of america, but advice not being accepted by the president of the United States of america . No. Its i think its a terrible idea. It sends the wrong message to the United States. It puts people at risk. There is a very people could die as a result of going to these rallies, and, you know, thats not an exaggeration. These are places where super spreading events can happen. Many people could get sick, and its just its setting the wrong tone from the highest office in our country. Doctor, appreciate your expertise and insight. Thank you. Absolutely. The race in the policing crisis and urgent effort on capitol hill to make big changes. Senate republicans unveiling a 106page plan and gop leader saying when he brings it to the floor next week he hopes democrats will help. Democratic friends if they want to make a law, and not just try to make a point, i hope theyll join us in getting on the bill, and trying to move forward in the way the senate does move forward when its trying to actually get an outcome rather than just sparring back and forth. Lets go straight to capitol hill. Cnns phil mattingly. Recent experience, theyre much better at the just sparring back and forth as the leader put it. Start a debate, have amendments try to get to the finish line. Which this time . Reporter look, its an open question now. Obviously, Senate Republicans moving quickly. Majority leader making clear the bill will be on the floor, a motion to proceed to the bill at least, next week. Now Senate Democrats have to decide whether or not they want to agree. Look, stark differences on some key components of the Senate Republican bill versus what democrats in the house and Senate Democrats agree with that house proposal. Wheres those two issues lie. Issues that would have to be worked out on the floor may never be able to be worked out. The big question now is whether or not democrats will block loving on to this bill. Talked to a democratic senator on my way here. My point to that senator was, why not get on the bill, an m amendment, see where it ends up. No trust with senior mcconnell. They dont believe and shortcircuit the prauocess. Right now talks on amendments. I will say, though. Why this feels somewhat different, again, still a long road here to reconcile the proposals and pass something throughout the senate. Monday afternoon Senate Republicans we talked to said no chance this bill would be taken up before the july fourth recess. Coming up. Things shifted inside the chamber and the House Chamber in terms of dynamics how these issues are approached. Terms of willingness and need to address these issues now. The big question now is, will the lack of trust really kind of become concrete over the course of the last several years, maybe last decade, shortcircuit this before it starts . Or actually a full debate with amendments on the senate floor . I note one big red line issue between democrats and republicans now besides how the process works unqualified immunity. Democrats making clear there has to be something in the bill for it to pass. Republicans did not include it in the proposal led by senator tim scott. The president has said that is a red line for him. Try to figure that out on the policy, also the politics, and procedure. Still a lot going on here, but clearly a move towards something at least at the moment, john. A big shift. Big enough, the question . Id love to see an oldfashioned senate debate, take votes and see who wins. Wouldnt that be Something Else . Phil mattingly live on capitol hill. Might be too much to ask for. Maybe, just maybe, notice this time. Up next, promising a decision today on possible charges against two Atlanta Police officers involved in the deadly Rayshard Brooks shooting.

I wanted to help protect myself. My doctor recommended eliquis. Eliquis is proven to treat and help prevent another dvt or pe blood clot. Almost 98 percent of patients on eliquis didnt experience another. And eliquis has significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Whats around the corner could be worth waiting for. Ask your doctor about eliquis. Whats around the corner sir. D be worth waiting for. Youre talking about a first [runnigeneration americanren] from the streets of the Imperial Valley who rose to beat the odds. She worked nights and weekends till she earned herself a masters degree. She was running in a marathon when a man behind her collapsed from cardiac arrest. And using her experience saved this mans life. So why do i think there should be more people like carmen bravo in this world . Because that man. Was me. Learning a bit later whether charges will be filed in the Police Shooting death of Rayshard Brooks. The District Attorney in atlanta, paul howard, will hold a press briefing at 3 00 p. M. Each. Previously said weighing murder, felony murder and voluntary manslaughter charges. The other officers at the scene, on administrative leave. Former Deputy Assistant attorney general Elliott Williams is with us. The prosecutor is publicly weighing those charges. Has a News Conference made a decision and will announce them today. What do you anticipate . Again, the questions the prosecutor is weighing, at the heart of this, strip down the statutes and all that, did mr. Brooks present imminent harm of death or serious injury to the officer at the time he died . Was this shot fired to save someones life or prevent serious injury . Look, weve watched the video. The individual, mr. Brooks, was fleeing. He is holding a weapon, a nonlethal weapon. We know it was a taser. To be clear, in this National Conversation were having on policing and force, we got to ask two very different questions. Right . What should the role of police be and the role of force from police be and what can you prove to a jury in this case . To be canid, this is a much more complicated legal case than what we saw in minnesota. To that point, this is fulton county, atlanta. I want you to live here. Police union leader from nearby cobb county saying that under georgia law, because there was a scuffle, because Rayshard Brooks had that taser, this Police Union Leader, might question his judgment but he had the right. Listen. I think you can justify this case by georgia law. It specifically gives him the right based on aggravated assaults and threat he poses to the public and to the officers there. This specifically gives them, by law, the right to shoot him. He chose to make those actions. He chose to do what he did. So you can, as you said, watch the video, and you can say, come on. Give me a break. He was running away. He had your taser. Let him run. You have this name, his car, a little intoxicated probablyyou. What common sense look at video is. But may a judge have to instruct the jury in georgia if it gets that far about that law . Absolutely. Again, its going to depend what he is charged with. I i wouldnt go as far a Police Union Leader harks a constituency to represent. I wont fight with him there. At a minimum, its complicated. Yes, there was a struggle. The thing that cuts against that is prior to the struggle there was 20 minutes of sobriety tests and calm conversation where mr. Brooks con sense to being padded down and officers know he doesnt have a lethal weapon. There was a scuffle. The question, how to treat scuffles between the individuals and police. Thats how the world ought to be today. Questions were thinking about as a nation. At a minimum its complicated, but again just hard to watch a video where you know theres been 20 minutes leading up, 20plus minutes leading up to it. Know the weapon in his hand is not lethal and hes not armed. Frankly, the fact hes intoxicated cuts against his ability to be dangerous or a threat. To get away. Probably slowed him down. All of these factors create a jumble of a legal mess the prosecutors and d. A. s office has to weigh
