Continue, well hand it over to chris cuomo to primetime. Thank you, i am chris cuomo, we got 64 days until elections day. It is time to come together to understand the facts and for you to make the choices that we set our course ahead. The country is under two crisis. Neither one is under control, coronavirus continues to spread and kids are back in in schools almost everywhere. We need to track and trace and keep them and their family safe. The president continues to ignore this health crisis. He focuses on the violence around the country. He is ignoring the real illness of systematic inequality and instead of blaming his opponent for the growing disorder thats happening on his watch. The wave of violence and destruction that we have seen in recent weeks and months occurred in cities and dominated by the biden party. The violence is fuelled by dangerous rhetoric by far left politicians, demonizing our police. Many been fed lies about racism. I dont know whos writing this stuff for him. You can see hes reading and hes not familiar with the material. Those people too are complicit. Systematic inequality isra real. You know it and i know it. We see it in our schools and courts and prisons. This president knows it, too. All americans are not racist. No one should say that because it is not the truth. Remember our country was designed to be able to defeat in equal at t equality like this and uniquely so. Why would this president lie about the reality . It seems this is just about scaring his base enough to win the elections. I have to tell you whatever the polls say it may work. The big question is at what price . Hes now literally painting a man who supports him as a victim the same time the police are calling him a murderer. That was an interesting situation. You saw the same tape i saw and he was trying to get away from them, i guess, it looks like and he fell and they very violently attacked and it was something we are looking at right now. It is under investigation but i guess he was in very big trouble. He probably would have been killed. You guessed . Y he probably would have been killed . The guy with the gun against the unarmed people . Is this law and order . Backing the 17yearold who came to town from out of state with a gun that was illegal for him to carry openly and shot and killed people. And the crowd shouted what he had done. What about the two people who were killed at the scene . You dont have to guess about them. Theyre dead. They were white, too. Maybe not Trump Supporters but theyre a shooter. How can our president believe that painting the shooter is good for our country. The violence in the streets even when in the name of positive change is negative and wrong. You dont need me to tell you that looting and rioting are not protesting. Scenes of whites and blacks, hurting and being hurt or scared, theyre unamerican. Theyre not progress. All politicians should be loud and clear about that. It should not be a point of division. This president has chosen to make racial equality an opposing force to his own political cause. He defended supporters who shot paint balls at protesters saying paint is a defense mechanism and blaming biden whos not in office for what is happening while trump is in office. The democratic nominee had to remind the president today. The violence that were seen in Donald Trumps america, these are not images of Joe Bidens America in the future. These are i mages of Donald Trumps america today. He keeps on telling you if only hes president , it would not happen. If he was president , you would feel safe. Well, hes president whether he knows it or not and it is happening. It is getting worse. It is getting worse. In 67 days, you will have to decide what will make it better. It has to be our collective calls. Our president is about to head to kenosha. Local leaders there are uncertain of his impact. They think it is too unstable for him or biden to go. The president barely spoke at his briefing today about coronavirus which is why he started holding briefings again. He declined to take reporters questions from cnn. The pandemic is a problem, what is he going to do about it . We know in our lives very few problems get better when you ignore them. The unrest over systematic inequality, we are ignoring him, at least our leaders are. We got now more than 6 million of us infected with covid. We could hit 300,000 deaths by years end according to a new projection. Our president s answer . Forget the feedbacacts and the reality. Forget that we need testing on a scale that only he can make happen. He wants you to believe the statistics from grocery exaggerating. Do you know someone in your own family who had this and you heard the stories of people being sick and you hear the story of them staying sick, long hall syndrome. We are hiding from it. I am going to Start Talking to you about what people are suffering even when they are getting mild cases. Instead of protecting the herd, he now has a doctor whos on your screen, dr. Atlas sayi saying on his task force is trying to get the administration to go for a herd, immunity strategy. That means you have to have a lot more people get sick so we can get this over with. I hope this is not the best that this administration can do. I hope it does not happen. Has trump already told us hes okay with staggering loss. He responded to news of the death toll by saying it is what it is. How do we make it better than that . Trials are not complete . You got tony fauci and other Task Force Members warning against that. Zb aga again, the braackdrop, remember where we are today, kids going back to schools. Why . Because they cant test the kids effectively in timely fashion to manage the situation. We should have done better. You see whats happening at our colleges . These reclekless scenes, it is t fair to the kids. Lets look at the path Going Forward. Lets bring in tom freedman. Thank you, for being with us tonight. Doctor, what is your take on what you understand dr. Atlas pushing as herd immunity. We saw the fda have decisions on emergency use of plasma which may have been a correct decision but politicize it and you have the white house and hhs over ruled the center for disease and control preventions, dont test people who have no symptoms which makes no sentence. This is concept of young people get covid, they wont get very sick and well be okay. What starts in the young does not stay in young. There has already been more than 250,000 excess deaths beyond baseline between march 8th and july 31st. 71 of those deaths had a doctor who wrote on their death certificate, covid caused it. The others could have been covid was not diagnosed or people who could not get the doctor to get their heart attack taken care on time. We have too many casualties and too many people have died and too many jobs have lost and too much harm to our economy. We cant let the fda and cdc be the next casualty of this pandemic. He tweeted of what happened with the herd immunity in sweden. You compare how that works for sweden versing denmark, norway and finland, whats the point here . The point is sweden took an approach of saying hey lets let a little Economic Activity go. They have a much, much higher death rate than enabling country. The only way to country this virus is to control this virus. The way to regain our economy is to control the pandemic. The vaccine. Everybody knows theyre going fast and they keep on being told that they have an allstar team is working on it dr. Hahn is saying the agency could green light a vaccine before phase three trials are over. Is phase three virtualous or once you get into it you know you have a winner or not. Vaccines are really complicated because you need to know do they work. Are they safe . And will people trust them . We got vaccine manufactures who never made a vaccine before. We have Vaccine Technology thats never been used before. At this point we would be surprised if there were not a surprise announcement of vaccines in october. The fact that a vaccine is maybe the single best tool that we have to fight covid so it is important to get it right and we not cut any corners on safety. If people dont trust it and not approved with clear data or if there is no complete transparency of whats happening. We risk a blow back. We risk one step forward and three steps backward. Thats what happened with this administration opening too soon in Southern States and thats whats happening in schools opening where there is a lot of covid. We dont want that to happen with the vaccines because vaccines are precious. They are most powerful tools to control the pandemic. They announced a vaccine in o october. It is not about political science. Something positive to line up for this election, i hope it is backed by science. Dr. Tom freidman, thank you for keeping us informed. Whats scared about this is the numbers not being told. Jones said then theyre not doing numbers the right way in florida. She got savage, she was right. Her superior said she was fired because she did not file the whistle blower complaint. Shes going to take us inside the reality of whats happening in school. She worries as a parent and as a scientist. She also launched a tool that may be the first and best of its kind to do something that nobody else have been doing for us, track covid19 cases k through 12 all around the u. S. How could you not have that . Rebecca jones with the reality and what the right way should be, next on primetime. New advil dual action with acetaminophen fights pain in two ways.

We need to increase federal support for testing, doubling the number of drivethru testing sites. We absolutely need a clear message from the very top of our federal government that Everyone Needs to wear a mask in public. Every single Frontline Worker should have the personal protective equipment that they need to be safe. We need to support schools and childcare programs so parents, if and when they can return to work, are confident that their children will be safe and cared for. And finally, we need to protect the populations most at risk our seniors, vulnerable populations with preexisting conditions. We need real plans, real guidelines, with uniform nationwide standards. Its a simple proposition folks, were all in this together. We gotta fight this together. Well emerge from this stronger because we did it together. Im joe biden and i approve this message. Rebecca jones, good to see you. I am happy to see you, chris. They are not big straight of the data. Now you are going to track it yourself. Why do we need a data to democrattrack it . So i noticed there is a gap there and information and data gap and having the resources and knowledge and the skills set i have joined up with the financial profit and decided to fit it. How hard is its for y for yo this in. Very hard. It is more work than any one person can manage themselves. Thats why i was lucky to find people to help me build this project and find all the data i resources that are out there and pull it in. We are talking to potential contributors to add to this list of resources. It is a lot of work. Do you have a lot of in occasi indication of whats going on out there . It is bad. Schools and a lot of places, u. S. Southeast have been opened since the first 1st of august. Governor desantis ordered all schools had to be opened. You got a kid in florida school. Is it true that in your home state of florida, the governor has schools not reporting cases. Yes, it is, duval is ready to launch their dashboard across their school district. According to the studeuperinten, the state stepped in and said no. You need to ask for our permission. Okay, so theyre able to assess data and no calls panic. What happened when people asked to release data . Theyre told to publish this data in a way that does not compromise privacies. All of these states that are using hippa as a shield who are not releasing schools. A they are not using hippa correctly. You cant identify any Single Person by saying the number of lets say teachers who tested positive across the entire school. Theyre just now being selective about this new category. Is it true at some point this month that florida release reports of covid19 cases associated with daycare and colleges and pull them back . Yes, it did. Three days in a row, they release a polish and finalize report in every category for every single county in the state. When called on and asked about it, no, no, theyre taking it off and theyre not finalized. What does it mean . Correct. That means that someone was told to generate this report and upload it before all the docs were in a row at the leadership level and leadership did not like the numbers. What are you worried about as a mom . I am not going to find out about cases in my sons school before it is too late to pull them out to be effective. All the kids are okay when they get sick and one in a gazillion are not bad. Thats not true. I have written obituaries for kids. This is not something that kids are immune to. Over 3,000 children are hospitalized. This does not get better. Children have been the single most shielded since this started. We immediately cancelled schools for the rest of the semester in march when there were only a couple of hundred cases in florida. What will did you think of starting school when there is a baseline of half a million active cases. I hope it does not look like colleges. I get criticized when there are kids. You have kids there and you are telling them to go back to campus whar campus, what are they going to do . You are putting together the National Database and we dont have it at the federal level. Thank you for staying in touch and thank you for the work you are doing and good luck forward for you and your family. Of course, thank you. Have you been following what happened in portland . It is not easy. We dont know what happened yet. We should take time to practice and develop it. No question sometimes people get ahead of themselves and it does not help. We know a man is killed in violent clashes that were going on with Trump Supporters and black looiives matter protests. I dont know why the president encouraged that . We know the identity of the vick. We ha victim. We have a reporter who was there. Theyll take us through what went down before the shooting. All right, this reporter was hit by one of those defensive paint ball being shot by protesters by the president s support. What he saw on the street, you need to know, next. At philadelphia, we know what makes the perfect schmear of cream cheese. You need only the freshest milk and cream. That one and the worlds best, and possibly only, schmelier. Philadelphia. Schmear perfection. Noticks and fleas . O simplifies protection. See ya heartworm disease . No way simparica trio is the first chewable that delivers all this protection. And simparica trio is demonstrated safe for puppies. Its simple go with simparica trio. This drug class has been associated with neurologic adverse reactions, including seizures; use with caution in dogs with a history of these disorders. Protect him with all your heart. Simparica trio. All right, lets go to portland, oregon, there is a lot that we dont know start there. We dont understand what this dynamic does. We are getting closer. We certain lily know the name killed. The 39yearold killed fb. Cnn does have the video of the shooting across the street. It is dark and tough to see what happened. Lets get some perspective from someone who was on the ground to witness, not the shooting but what was going on that night in those clashes. The reporter is named mike baker of the new york times, hes in portland. Thank you for taking the opportunity. Thank you for having me. So tell us, what was it like on the street . They were dpoigoing to come through and driving around the city. A lot of them are in the hundreds of trucks with trumps flags and American Flag driving into the streets. And immediately he came. Protesters blocking vehicles and you have Trump Supporters firing paint balls into the crowd and pepper spray being sprayed and protesters throwing things on the ground. It was just an escalating thing in downtown. You saw them shooting the paint ball and you got hit yourself. The president said this was a peaceful thing. How did it seem to be deployed . It was clear these folks were coming in ready for something. Theyre sitting in the back with paint ball guns and theyre ready and for some of them they were openly carrying when they were getting into their trucks to head down to portland. It was a scene where they were clear clearly ready for some level of conflicts. Did you get to talk to Trump Supporters and get a sense of why they see it of being an opposition for demand of systematic equality. For some of them is a chance to come into portland, they were feeling that portland had been dominated over the past three months by protesters and they see left wing in some way and what they believe. They wanted to come in in portland. This is a chance for them to do it in big numbers and show that they were not afraid to make it happen. Protest according to the president is violence. Thats whats going on around the country. Whats your experience . I have been out many nights with protesters. It is a different thing every week. From the time the feds were here in portland when there were thousands of protesters and the moms were out and larger crowds to now. When i was out last night, there may be 150 protesters out there. Some of them are throwing eggs and rocks and police came out and arrested 29 people, maybe one out of every five was arrested last night. It is a totally different scene. 150 people compare to 4,000 that were there. So it changes every night. Would you say they are too soft or do you think theyre too harsh . Whats your sense of how police are dealing with protesters . A major change the last week. They no longer using tear gas. Theyre limited on tear gas. They seem to be rushing out and grabbing everyone and getting their
