thankfully that didn't seem to be the case currently. still remains a hard to transmit virus compared to other things like covid. it requires very close human contact. could it be that it just was bad luck of an introduction from a potential travel case on to a vulnerable population with close social network. and the third is, could it be that it was potentially a lot more cases and now that we've raised alarm for it that physicians are looking out for it a lot more? again, the kind of rash of this virus causes that others are looking, it might look like chickens pox or herpes so it could be missed. the good news that i want people to know is that we have invest -- vaccine against -- anti viral medications that may work. and we don't expect these clusters to get bigger but of course it's a matter of concern and requires good epidemiology and contact tracing. >> and obviously people like you know about the stuff on most of us learned about it in the last two years transmissibility. how different viruses transmit differently. this one, as you mentioned, you

dr. peter otez joins me from houston, he is a professor at baylor college of medicine. all right. a lot of people have questions about this, about this monkey pox. how concerned are you about it? >> you know, i'm modestly concerned, pamela. if you look at the total number of confirmed and suspected cases outside of affect right now, you are talking 200. maybe half of them in spain and portugal and a handful in several other european countries, an outbreak that looks like it's happening in montreal and three suspected or confirmed cases in the u.s. and massachusetts, new york and florida so we are talking very small numbers. this is a virus that's not nearly as transmissible as covid-19. it requires wearing close face-to-face intimate contact. transmissibility is weighed down. it's important to remember that because it does have some

available to the public and we have lifted mask mandates. it makes us be in a more dangerous situation, mum like when were in 2020 when we were finding out covid-19 is. at this point we have a more transmissible variant. with each variant it seems to increase in transmissibility. we have waning vaccine effectiveness. in fact, if you look at the omicron surge, if you only had two doses of your vaccine at that point, the vaccine effectiveness was between 30% to 50%. we have to start getting real about this and think about mitigating factors. >> you started our conversation by saying i don't mean to be alarmist, but you just alarmed the heck out of me. i thank you for doing that. let's talk about that. the monoclonal antibodies and

transmissibility. that's just the nature of how this virus will continue to evolve. >> martha: one last question, quickly. the reason this is so super charged and variant prolific is because it was created in a lab. that's why it's so good at mutating and producing variants. you still believe that? >> yes. this virus was educated to be an efficient virus for human-to-human transmission as posed to some of its similar members of the family, sars and mers that never had that education. that education occurred in the laboratory. one of the most important things that we can do now is to move on, this virus will be with us the rest of time, we have to accelerate the development anti-virals and the availability of anti-virals. it's going to be treatment plus vaccines and targeted use of testing. it's going to allow us to keep

can't -- dr. jha said we can reasonably disagree on policies, but during this pandemic response many of us have been operating from different sets of facts, which is challenging. i mean, what is the white house's messaging strategy going forward here? i mean, as we've already said, a lot of the messaging around what to do in this moment of covid is confusing. >> well, i can't speak on past of the white house. you know -- but i do think that dr. jha's point is correct which is that i think one of the biggest tools that we have in our arsenal is to get information to people and -- timely for communities to make decisions for protecting the health in their communities. from that perspective, i think the investment that the cdc is making in the center for forecasting is going to be important for future variant, to understand cases are going up, to understand the impact in terms of transmissibility and the illnesses that that might cause. but -- but one of the major

given the ba.2 transmissibility and the fact there would likely be an uptick. but given that the people who are in close contact with him are all tested before they're with the president. number two, that about 99% of the white house complex staff are vaccinated, and the president himself is vaccinated and double boosted. so from the standpoint of risk, the risk is not zero. and the president realizes that. to the extent we can possibly protect him, it is okay. but it is conceivable he could get infected. we're hoping if that happens, the. a protection he has from his vaccination and double boost, that he would get a middle illness, if anything. >> so this is something new we're hearing from the white
