00:00:00.020 --> 00:00:03.520
Now listen there's all of these variances delta variant and

00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:08.200
...which they're calling...the nineteen on steroids, you know, and,

00:00:08.200 --> 00:00:11.240
they're saying it's everywhere...there's a mass now when

00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:14.690
the mass what my question is what the hell is going on and what should

00:00:14.690 --> 00:00:19.820
I actually paying attention to...you know, it's concerning

00:00:19.820 --> 00:00:24.280
...when you see when you see the rising cases in so many states

00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:28.840
their data sets ran the nation of victory and there is a sense of victory

00:00:28.840 --> 00:00:34.210
in that we've got so many vaccines that are highly effective against, against...but,

00:00:34.210 --> 00:00:38.290
as the virus continues to spread and transmit both here and around the world

00:00:38.290 --> 00:00:40.230
of what happens is when it

00:00:40.230 --> 00:00:45.930
when it multiplies little mistakes get made and when those mistakes lead to

00:00:45.930 --> 00:00:49.550
...the virus that...take called me spread so this delta

00:00:49.550 --> 00:00:54.330
virus this delta variant is one of those it spreads easier than the strain

00:00:54.330 --> 00:00:59.060
that had been spreading here around the united states so what that means is that in

00:00:59.060 --> 00:01:03.870
any community where the vaccine coverage rate is low it means that there's a

00:01:03.870 --> 00:01:09.680
chance for that very into take off and spread and hit people who are on

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:13.220
...the good news is that the vaccines that are out there that we've

00:01:13.220 --> 00:01:17.770
been getting vaccinated with our protective against the delta

00:01:17.770 --> 00:01:21.470
variance so if you are fully vaccinated today

00:01:21.470 --> 00:01:27.150
you are protected from serious infection and deaths from the delta...

00:01:27.150 --> 00:01:30.670
Doctor the delta variant seems to be spreading even in areas

00:01:30.670 --> 00:01:35.200
with high vaccination rates in israel fifty percent of those testing positive have

00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:40.120
been fully vaccinated those summer asymptomatic are people who are vaccinated at

00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:45.270
risk of contracting the delta variant I've been double vaccinated how concerned should

00:01:45.270 --> 00:01:50.920
I be well it's great that you are fully vaccinated because while

00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:54.590
...seeing some breakthrough cases in israel and it's really important

00:01:54.590 --> 00:01:59.260
we watch what happens in israel because they started that name before we did

00:01:59.260 --> 00:02:02.530
...the breakthrough cases that they're seeing or either asymptomatic

00:02:02.530 --> 00:02:06.750
are mild they aren't seeing a rise in sears

00:02:06.750 --> 00:02:11.340
infections are deaths in people who are fully vaccinated but it's something to pay attention to

00:02:11.340 --> 00:02:16.750
is also the your country worth watching in terms of whether we're going to need boosters because

00:02:16.750 --> 00:02:21.310
they start vaccinating earlier if they start to see breakthrough serious cases they'll

00:02:21.310 --> 00:02:27.010
be assigned here for the united states that we may need to do boosters ourselves

00:02:27.010 --> 00:02:31.300
better, better pfizer will be briefing officials here in the us today on the potential need for

00:02:31.300 --> 00:02:35.950
a booster shot now they say people will need a third dose six to twelve months after their

00:02:35.950 --> 00:02:40.800
two shot regimen israel has already announced that they will begin administering booster

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:45.530
shots to vulnerable populations in light of the rising number of cases there caused by the delta

00:02:45.530 --> 00:02:50.060
variant but so far officials cdc the fda here in the us

00:02:50.060 --> 00:02:55.950
are not recommending a booster yet we'll we all need one eventually and, if so...win,

00:02:57.250 --> 00:03:02.070
yeah, I mean that's...a really good question and it's one where the answers

00:03:02.070 --> 00:03:06.560
are in the end, you know, the state that came out from the cdc in the fda is that

00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:11.540
at this point there's no recommendation for boosters but they're continuing to file the data

00:03:11.540 --> 00:03:16.450
...places in the united states to keep an eye on would be in particular nursing homes

00:03:16.450 --> 00:03:21.070
because that's where the earliest vaccine efforts to place it's a very high

00:03:21.070 --> 00:03:26.030
risk population and if you started to see cases occurring among vaccinated

00:03:26.030 --> 00:03:30.770
people in nursing homes that would be...that we need a booster at this

00:03:30.770 --> 00:03:35.640
point is really important for government officials to be planning for the eventual

00:03:35.640 --> 00:03:39.790
...that we would need a booster even if they're not ready to say we're going to do that right

00:03:39.790 --> 00:03:44.080
now it's also not clear whether we would want to see a booster if we

00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:48.980
if we need to see one with the same vaccine we've already gotten or with one that was tailored a little

00:03:48.980 --> 00:03:52.030
bit more closely to any of the particular variance

00:03:52.030 --> 00:03:55.750
...are out there so I think it's the right

00:03:55.750 --> 00:04:00.830
decision right now to hold off on saying yes to definitely needing

00:04:00.830 --> 00:04:04.840
a booster the other reason for that is there's such dramatic need

00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:09.900
around the globe for first-time vaccination that if we are holding on

00:04:09.900 --> 00:04:15.160
to a significant vaccine store here we're not able to contribute in the same way to control

00:04:15.160 --> 00:04:19.470
around the globe and the spread of virus anywhere around low puts us

00:04:19.470 --> 00:04:26.260
at risk because as I was saying earlier that's the way the new variants can arise?

00:04:26.260 --> 00:04:29.920
Doctor this weekend at c pack which stands for crazy

00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:34.050
packed these days the crowd cheered the fact that we aren't reaching our

00:04:34.050 --> 00:04:39.050
vaccination goals let's play a clip government was hoping that they could sort of

00:04:39.050 --> 00:04:43.720
soccer ninety percent of the population into getting vaccinated and it and it

00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.990
...happening right there's a.

00:04:46.990 --> 00:04:52.660
The younger people why is this happening what's your reaction to this I, you know,

00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:55.820
I don't get it because of donald trump and he did and

00:04:55.820 --> 00:04:58.860
his administration has so much to do with the development of

00:04:58.860 --> 00:05:04.620
this vaccine why then are his supporters not wanting to get a can you explain it?

00:05:04.620 --> 00:05:10.120
Yeah, you know, this is really depressing...concerning your

00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:14.640
eye lead emergency preparedness and response of the cdc for years.

00:05:14.640 --> 00:05:19.690
And, you know, a success factor in any response was if we could make sure

00:05:19.690 --> 00:05:22.270
didn't become politicized and there's never been

00:05:22.270 --> 00:05:27.160
a response in our history that has been more politicized...response to

00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:32.170
the to covert it...a problem because it means that a

00:05:32.170 --> 00:05:35.910
decision to vaccinate which should be a health decision it should be a decision you

00:05:35.910 --> 00:05:40.700
make in consultation with your trusted healthcare provider is a badge

00:05:40.700 --> 00:05:46.050
of political honor shame and, that shouldn't be because it means large percentage

00:05:46.050 --> 00:05:49.640
of people are...vaccinated what I...

00:05:49.640 --> 00:05:54.540
someone who has concerns is you go to someone you trust get

00:05:54.540 --> 00:05:58.940
all of your questions answered so that you can make an informed decision but I can tell

00:05:58.940 --> 00:06:03.740
you each day in america more than two hundred people are dying from cove it

00:06:03.740 --> 00:06:06.310
...just about every single one of them is

00:06:06.310 --> 00:06:11.480
and that's needed those are jess that we could prevent?

00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.490
So, doctor the cdc put out new school guidance

00:06:14.490 --> 00:06:18.100
...saying that in person learning is a priority this fall and

00:06:18.100 --> 00:06:22.030
recommending vaccinated students and teachers don't need to be masked.

00:06:23.080 --> 00:06:26.780
But, california is already saying they'll require everyone in school to be

00:06:26.780 --> 00:06:28.430
...and some parts of the

00:06:28.430 --> 00:06:31.950
...are still requiring indoor masking a more broadly

00:06:31.950 --> 00:06:36.670
now does this bring more confusion because it does in my mind do

00:06:36.670 --> 00:06:41.280
fully vaccinated people need to wear masks is the bottom line?

00:06:41.280 --> 00:06:45.010
Yeah, you know, join this is one of those areas where there is confusion I'm

00:06:45.010 --> 00:06:49.770
...a general pediatrician and one of the things I loved about the new...guidance is

00:06:49.770 --> 00:06:54.220
...it says the most important thing we can do this fall is make

00:06:54.220 --> 00:06:58.110
sure that every child in america is in school for in person learning

00:06:58.110 --> 00:07:03.100
every day of school is so important not just for the facts that you are

00:07:03.100 --> 00:07:07.570
...in terms of socialization and development schools allow the parents

00:07:07.570 --> 00:07:13.550
...to go back to work which is so...you want to do it safely and the ccc

00:07:13.550 --> 00:07:18.460
guidance it gives lee ways to local communities and what it's saying is that

00:07:18.460 --> 00:07:23.400
...middle schools and high schools were vaccine is available if you have high levels

00:07:23.400 --> 00:07:28.440
of vaccination you may not need required that people wear masksbut,

00:07:28.440 --> 00:07:33.440
you may decide that operationally because it's so hard to know who is been vaccinate who is

00:07:33.440 --> 00:07:38.310
not we don't want to police that may say we're going to require masks indoors

00:07:38.310 --> 00:07:42.010
but people take their masks ...off outside when...and other

00:07:42.010 --> 00:07:46.730
...but let's continue...require masks indoors

00:07:46.730 --> 00:07:51.660
it may also be that it's kind of vary by community so for instance I'm here in new jersey and

00:07:51.660 --> 00:07:56.680
new jersey close to seventy percent of adults are fully vaccinated in my town of

00:07:56.680 --> 00:08:01.060
...seventy six percent but the next town over trenton new jersey it's

00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:05.710
forty four percent so you may see schools in the two different communities deciding to

00:08:05.710 --> 00:08:10.520
do different things and it makes sense in an area where numbers are going down you

00:08:10.520 --> 00:08:15.330
may be able to allow more activity without masks in areas where they're going up you may need to put

00:08:15.330 --> 00:08:20.320
in more measures like social distancing but it's critically important that you look at what's going

00:08:20.320 --> 00:08:23.820
on in each community and we need to make sure that the communities

00:08:23.820 --> 00:08:27.160
that been hit the hardest to communities with black and brown children

00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:31.510
have the resources they need so that children in those communities can be

00:08:31.510 --> 00:08:38.180
and person learning as well there's been major disparities in that regard during this condemning?

00:08:38.180 --> 00:08:40.930
I have a question...better because I have a I

00:08:40.930 --> 00:08:45.490
have a seven-year-old and I one and now when is

00:08:45.490 --> 00:08:49.560
it going to be something to protect her because with all of these

00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:54.320
variance around and all of the cold than the regular called then that's out there

00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.750
these little guys still have not had any vaccination and,

00:08:58.750 --> 00:09:03.640
you know, you can't put a child in school unless they're vaccinated and people just they

00:09:03.640 --> 00:09:05.660
...we have certain

00:09:05.660 --> 00:09:10.400
...of map this cell is anybody talking about when these little guys are going to be able to get

00:09:10.400 --> 00:09:15.890
...and we can get comfortable that they're going out to do things.

00:09:15.890 --> 00:09:19.920
Yeah, it's calming I wish I could be more definitive than that

00:09:19.920 --> 00:09:22.580
...it's coming we see many of the

00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:28.110
companies that are have vaccines that are on the market right now offer

00:09:28.110 --> 00:09:33.040
...adults doing their testing and children it's really important to be done

00:09:33.040 --> 00:09:37.760
in a very safe a thorough way but,

00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:40.420
I hope that by the end-of-the-year we're going to start

00:09:40.420 --> 00:09:44.830
to see vaccines for everybody not just for those twelve and older?
