anthony fauci is revealing a covid rebalancing he was her effect infected and recovered and then tested positive again and is apparently feeling worse than ever. now that the shot has been approved for kids ages 0 to 5, they are not immune from the less pressure tactics to get the jab. >> just like elmo. >> you were super-duper today getting your covid vaccine, elmo. >> it was okay. >> while the supreme court back in january blocked biden's vaccine mandate for private employers, there still a mandate in place for federal employees including for the military and national guard. now a guard spokesman tells us that guard troops have not gotten the shot yet face penalties, including separation. while the fate of that hangs in the balance, republicans in congress are moving to protect them. thank goodness. the leader of that effort is tennessee senator marsha blackburn who joins me now. thank goodness for you on so many different fronts. americans perhaps feel that we are moving on with our lives. we have some lifting of certain mandates like mask mandates, et cetera. yet there is this hangi

anthony fauci at 4:00 p.m. on fox news. one thing that is striking here that china risks slowing the economy all over again with its pretty draconian response. you talked about the bumps in manufacturing as a result but what do you make of it all? >> zero covid policy over in china i think they reported a record 3,000 cases or so. obviously that is going to impact on some of the multinationals that have big factories in china. we've been talking about apple and tesla. i think apple will probably be the bellwether report later on this month on july 28th when they report results but also there is a counter story to this china covid number but did you see the fact they will sell $200 billion, release $200 billion in the economy through the bond system? that is a possibly a wild card in this. if you see china like in 2008 when they funneled $600 billion into the economy that could be a backstop for global markets. neil: i wonder as well on that, ray, not that you're a gambler, but i know macau is a gambling mecca shut down. and

anthony fauci, the president's chief medical adviser, detailed the president's condition on saturday. >> i spoke to dr. o'connor last night at 10:00 to get an update and just as you've said and you heard, the president continues to improve. and we have every reason to believe that he will do very well. having a runny nose, having someone who he has a history when he does get colds that have nothing to do with covid, he has a history of asthma. he has for trouble breathes at all right now. >> reporter: and dr. o'connor says that the early sequencing results have come in and he mostly has the ba.5 variant, that is the variant that the majority of americans currently contracting covid-19 here in the country are experiencing. now, while the president is isolating here at the white house, his wife, first lady jill biden, is spending the weekend up in wilmington, delaware. she has tested negative for covid-19 on saturday and is not experiencing any symptoms. she's expected to remain in delaware until at least tuesday which would mark day five of president biden's isolation. dr. o'connor say

anthony fauci. senator, thank you for joining us today. >> john: thank you. the family of the two girls allegedly snubbed in sesame place are speaking out, they say it was pure racism and they are demanding the park take action. lauren green is following the story. what does the family want here? >> the attorneys for the family say the employee playing the costumed character should be fired immediately. the family says sesame place's apology seemed very in sincere. >> i was sad, i was pissed, and immediately just going to defense mode. first thing as a parent, you want to defend your child and protect their innocence. >> she says her 6-year-old daughter and niece were traumatized last weekend at sesame place theme park in pennsylvania after they were snubbed by the character rosita. high fiving several white adults and children but waving off two young black children. the attorneys say it's blatant racism, increasing at theme parks. sesame place blamed on the outfit saying the costumes our performers wear sometimes make it difficult to see at lower levels and

he said that anthony fauci was going to be fired, and he was not fired. he said that the secretary would be among them. and the head of the cia would be fired. what is striking about that is that he is predicting that because trump will not have to face voters again, he will be freed, and can do whatever he wants and not be responsive to democratic pressures. steve bannon and trump have described themselves as these great populist advocates of democracy. and, here bannon is expressing contempt and mockery for the idea that voters have a say in how the government is going to be run. >> in a normal political environment, audio like this would be absolutely devastating, and damning. what was bannon's response to this audio being published? >> his response was that this is already being said in public, and so there is no story. this is not news. that's extraordinary, because what he is saying is that anything is exculpatory. he's not saying that he didn't do it, this is insignificant. he's just saying that, well i already said, this where you writing an artic

anthony fauci spoke about after taking a course of paxlovid, he had a rebound infection after i believe he said he tested negative for maybe three days. dr. fauci then started experiencing mild symptoms again and testing positive. what are -- what is the data out there of how likely a rebound infection would be? >> i'm going to clarify, because i don't think of it as a rebound infection, but rather the paxlovid does its job of suppressing the virus, preventing all of those horrible side effects, and organ damage that's caused by covid. it avoids hospitalization and severe disease. but because paxlovid was approved for five days, what we are seeing is that with these new variants, it's likely that the virus is kind of not fully eliminated but able to reemerge. that's why you're testing positive again. we're not seeing folks who end up with those symptoms with a need for hospitalization after taking paxlovid. so the term rebound i don't like because it scares people away from taking paxlovid. it's likely you would have had symptoms and been infectious for 10 or 14 days. paxlovid made you

anthony fauci. it wasn't surprising this happened. in fact a couple days ago i warned don't be disappointed if it happens to the perceresident. the percentage number i hear for rebound is 20%. i don't know how valid that is. but it's higher than the original clinical trials. i think it may be partly due to the new subvariants. there's a lot more virus replication so there's more virus to concur by taking the antiviral drug. there's a new study that the university of san diego is looking at, it's not due to drug resistance, the virus is still sensitive to paxlovid when rebound occurs. i think it's a matter of exposure to the medicine, there's not enough medicine getting inside the cells over a five day course to totally wipe out all of the virus. so the question is, should we extend it to 7 to 10 days. someone is looking at this, they have nih funding to look at this. we'll learn more. i think the question right now, i think the president will continue to do well. there's a question if there's another course of paxlovid. so there's a l

anthony fauci is said to be planning to retire before the end of president biden's current term. bloomberg learned he will step down before january 2025, wrapping up a storied career as the u.s. government's top infectious disease expert and are seven presidents. he has served since 1984. global news, 24 hours a day, on air and on bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. i am vonnie quinn. this is bloomberg. haidi: traders are peering their bets on a 100-basis point hike from the fed on signs of moderating inflation expectations. let's bring in annabelle for some morning calls. is it too early to call a peak when it comes to price pressures? annabelle: that is what we are hearing. it was the big move in markets. we had seen traders pricing a 100-basis point hike, the odds of that at one in three. then we got the university of michigan survey and we saw expectations moderating. goldman sachs is telling us it is too early to call a peak on this. here's what we heard from the chief global equity strategist, peter oppenheim a

disease doctor anthony fauci says that while there is no evidence that the ba.5 variant causes more severe disease, deaths and hospitalizations are unacceptably high. u.s. department of health and human services says current hospitalizations surpassed 40,000 for the first time in about hour months and the cdc is predicting an average of more than 400 deaths per day over the next four weeks. so to bring those numbers down, dr. fauci says masks, testing and covid boosters are key, but many americans in the under 50 age group are wondering when a second dose will be authorized. here he is. >> the fda right now is looking at all the data and making the decision which i think will be reasonably soon as to whether or not there will be the authorization of vaccination in the fourth boost for individuals less than 50. and if so, will there be subcategories like people maybe who are at a higher risk for complications. but let's leave that up to the fda, they are the ones that will look carefully at that data and hopefully we'll get an answer reasonably soon. >>> iran says it is cracking down on dis

anthony fauci, the chief medical adviser to the president, detailed the president's condition. he has spoken directly to dr. o'connor. this is how fauci described how the president is doing. >> i spoke to dr. o'connor last night at 10:00 to get an update. and just as you said and you heard, the president continues to improve. and we have every reason to believe that he will do very well. having a runny nose, having someone who has a history when he has a cold nothing to do with covid, has a history of asthma. he has no trouble breathing at all right now. >> in his letter earlier today, dr. o'connor did say the early sequencing results of the president's covid-19 test indicated he most likely has the highly contagious ba.5 subvariant, which is what most americans who are currently contracting covid in this country are experiencing at the moment. while the president is in isolation here at the white house, first lady jill biden is spending the weekend at their home in wilmington, delaware, where the president was supposed to be this weekend before he contracted covid-19. her spok

anthony fauci, the president's chief medical adviser had to say earlier today as he summarized the president's condition. >> when he does get colds that have nothing to do with covid, he has a history of asthma, and he uses a bronchodilator to make sure he just breathes well. he has no trouble breathing at all right now as he's vaccinated, doubly boosted. he's on an antiviral drug that has a very good track record of preventing people to progress to disease that is serious. so he's doing very well, and he continues to improve. >> now, the president's physician dr. o'conner also said that the early sequencing result os. president's covid diagnosis have come in and it is most likely that he has the ba.5 variant, that highly contagious variant that the majority of the country, americans who contract covid-19 at this moment currently have. now, additionally while the president is here at the white house over the weekend, his wife, first lady dr. jill biden is spending the weekend in wilmington, delaware. her spokesperson tells me that she tested negative earlier today and she still is not experien

anthony fauci. he said look, the window is not closed. and today, to cnn, dr. walensky, the director of the cdc, saying the same thing. let's take a look at what she told cnn. she says the interview meaning dr. gottlieb's interview, was misinformed and off base. those are pretty strong words. it is true that we have work to do here and internationally and are likely to see more monkeypox cases in the near term, but it's possible to significantly decrease the numbers and contain the current monkeypox outbreak. let's look at things she pointed to that the cdc and the u.s. health officials are doing. she said if you take a look in mid-may, the u.s. had capacity to do only about 6,000 tests per week. by the end of june, that ramped up to 10,000. now, it's about 80,000. and the reason we started with mid-may is that's when the first monkeypox case appeared in the u.s. if you look at vaccinations, 156,000 doses have been distributed and 130,000 more will be distributed soon. to be clear, dr. walensky makes it clear things are going to get worse before they get better

anthony fauci joins us live with more covid headlines. >>> breaking overnight, two americans killed in ukraine fighting against russian forces, the u.s. stepping up assistance. >> trump versus pence, stumping for rival repubicans in the arizona governor's race. is it a sign of things to come? >>> new twist in the johnny depp/amber heard defamat

anthony fauci. thanks for being here. >> god to be with you. thank you for having me. >> how is president biden doing? >> he's doing fine. i mean, you saw him there on the clip. i had a discussion today with his primary physician, dr. kevin o'connor, and as he reported publicly in the letter, the president is actually even better today than he was yesterday. so, you know, you never can guarantee anything but he has all the signs of looking like he's going in the right direction. you know, he's generally healthy person. he's vaccinated, doubly boosted, and he's on an antiviral drug that has been clearly shown to have a major positive impact in preventing one from progressing to severe disease, and as you've heard from his physician and even from the president himself, he's carrying on his duties virtually today and actually doing quite well. he's even better and more improved today than he was yesterday. >> yeah. you mentioned him work, and they shared that video and shared a photo of him at work, virtual, as you say, for safety. you have now, s

anthony fauci if he expects other cities to follow suit. >> it is clear that some jurisdictions could have a high level of virus circulating will make that decision that they will mandate a mask, but that will be left up to the local jurisdictions to make that decision because each state, each county might be different from the other. so you don't want to make a universal declaration about whether it's a good idea or not. it has to be decided at the local level. just be a bit cautioning. it shouldn't let it disrupting your life or disrupting what you want to do, but there should be a certain level of caution we should all be exercising. >> dr. jonathan reiner joins me now with more. you just heard dr. fauci advise prudent caution. given that map which was really a sea of red and orange to say the least, is that advice strong enough given what we're seeing right now? >> no. the unequivocal statement from the federal government should be for all americans to mask up in public. we are seeing right now probably more cases transmitted every day than we have at any time during the 2 1/2 yea

anthony fauci had a similar rebound case, but hopes people will stay confident in the job. >> paxlovid is doing what it is supposed to do, it is keeping people out of the hospital, preventing disease. liz: that was maryellen parks reporting. with the ba.5 variant running wild here in california, it seems like nearly everyone has had a brush with covid. there are exceptions. leslie brinkley caught up with some people who never got the virus despite some close calls. >> is getting covid inevitable? not according to those who have somehow walked through the covid minefield unscathed. you could call them covid virgins like this woman who took care of her mom and sister unmasked. >> i was lysol in the house, i put a towel under the door, everything was getting sprayed with disinfectant, but i didn't catch it. i don't know how i didn't. it was a miracle, for sure. >> just a few weeks ago, my dad had it and i'm living at home this summer with him. he went upstairs and lived in his room and i tested negative. >> these two friends avoided covid despite a college roommate testing positive. >> i'

anthony fauci with more on that this morning. >> one thing you don't want to do, john, you don't want to withhold a vaccine for someone who hasn't had a vaccine for a while, who is at risk. if i had someone at risk, and hasn't been vaccinated with a boost in several months, i would not want to wait a fewmonths. when you get to the fall, then you are concerned about when they get that additional boost. but you don't want to hold back in a high-risk person. >> joining me now for more on this is dr. carlos del rio, dean of emery university school of medicine. great to see you. so this white house summit comes as people under the age of 50 still aren't eligible for their fourth shot or second booster. at this point, should they wait for one of these next generation vaccines or get a shot now if they are not one of the highly vulnerable group of people we just heard from dr. fauci? >> i think you're talking about two different things. we definitely need next generation vaccines, the vaccines we have were chasing variants, and chasing variants is not a good strategy. so the white house summ

anthony fauci who says that despite the president using an inhaler, biden isn't having any trouble breathing. >> he has an upper respiratory infection right now. having a runny nose, having someone who he has a history, when he gets colds that have nothing to do with covid-19, he has a history of asthma, and he uses the bronco dilator to make sure he breathes well. he has no trouble breathing at all now, that would be a misinterpretation, to say that. that's something he does regularly when he gets an upper respiratory infection. the president continues to improve and we have every reason to believe he will do very well for the obvious reasons. he's vaccinated, doubly boosted, he's on an antiviral drug that has a very good track record of preventing people to progress to disease that is serious. so he's doing very well and he continues to improve. >> dr. fauci also discussed whether the cdc needs to change its recommendation to a longer isolation period. take a listen. >> people have different circumstances in their lives. and it may be very difficult sometimes for people to have the access

anthony fauci says needs to improve. >> there now has to be a balance between vaccines available for those who clearly have been exposed as well as those at risk, and that's where now the change and the distribution so that you anticipate that someone might get infected as opposed to responding to someone who is infected. >> dr. fauci also mentioned a public health emergency declaration four monkeypox is under active consideration. kyle plank is recovering from monkeypox. he started feeling sick in june, was diagnosed in early july. he's joining us now. thank you for coming in. >> thank you for having me. >> you are fully recovered, right? >> i am, thankfully. >> any residual issues? >> not really. i have a little bit of scar tissue where some of the lesions were. i'm hopeful it will get better in no time. >> tell us how you learned you had monkeypox. >> i work in the infectious diseases space. i'm doing research and with being a gay man in new york city, monkeypox is on my mind more than the average person perhaps. i was aware it was happening in europe and after pride when i starte
