Summary

A top health official fights back tears as covid deaths surge. As the United States repeatedly reaches record hospitalizations and deaths, with 2,000 reported so far today, United States President Donald Trump mocks Germany for record day in deaths. Fauci warns that too many people still think that the coronavirus pandemic is a hoax. Fauci says that the United States has to "own" the pandemic problem. Two states with the highest positivity rates in the United States face covid doubters and one covid denier calls the pandemic "fabricated." The FDA panel meets tomorrow to consider authorizing the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine. The FDA panel could greenlight the vaccine as early as tomorrow and vaccine doses could be distributed in just days. The United Kingdom health authorities say that people with a history of allergic reactions should not receive the Pfizer vaccine. Fauci says that allergic reactions to the coronavirus vaccine are concerning but are likely "unusual and rare." There is a logistical challenge of bringing covid vaccines to rural United States. The GOP zeros in on Rev. Warnock as its main target in the Georgia runoff election. Judge who approved armed raid at the home of a fired Florida covid data scientist was appointed by Gov. Desantis. A source says that Melania Trump "just wants to go home." To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
