I think that very high quality masks really seem to be effective. To that point, doctor ray Johns Hopkins says healthcare workers with those high quality masks don't seem to get infected quite as quickly. President Biden is going to address the nation about omicron this afternoon as he meets with his COVID response team, Terry Haines with pangea policy says The White House can do more on testing. President himself has been talking about them taking steps to ramp up testing for ten months. Now as parents of people in the country who are trying to experience this trying to come up with testing that it hasn't happened. So he's going to have to do something substantial on that. Terry Haynes and pangea meantime CNN is reporting the Centers for Disease Control could update its quarantine guidance as soon as today you'll recall the agency came under some fire for not including a testing requirement when it cut isolation times for infected people from ten days to 5. The CDC is cutting the time people should wait for a Pfizer BioNTech booster to 5 months. The earlier recommendation was 6th after the first two doses. Food and Drug Administration made a similar call yesterday tomorrow, CDC advisers are going to meet on whether to recommend Pfizer boosters for 12 to 15 year olds.

"It was absolutely lovely. Yes, it was very nice. But new year, fresh starts and markets are going up. Now we've been holding down the fort here in the U.S., we've been working through the week and on into this new year looking at yet more gains, records for equities. This morning we're starting out with the big story out of Silicon Valley, guilty verdicts in the trial of Elizabeth Holmes, the once high flying founder of the blood testing startup theranos is now convicted fraudster, accused of bilking her investors in a case that could reverberate through the world of venture capital. We're going to look at the potential impact of the theranos case with Bloomberg's legal news executive editor Tina Davis, she'll be joining us live this morning. We're also, of course, watching omicron numbers. We've never seen before in this pandemic more than a million new cases in just one day and that was just in this country. Doctor Stewart ray is with us from the Johns Hopkins school of medicine. But as we mentioned, even with the pandemic setting records, some of the markets with the S&P at an all time high, Apple now a $3 trillion company and as you mentioned, the end of an era for old smart. You see that you're an old CrackBerry character. Why was that Nokia person at the time? Yeah, I had everything I did not have a BlackBerry no. Do you think there's a whole generation of us who've got small bouts of arthritis as a sort of both of that. I've had to learn to dictate everything now just so that I don't get on a fight. It's still rough to type on a screen. Anyway, join me and Karen Moscow. We'll get you set for the new trading day. Bloomberg day break America is coming up shortly. Tom and Caroline. Good stuff. Thanks so much, Nathan. Yes, Bloomberg, daybreak. Up next. And if you're listening to London DAB digital media, you're here Bloomberg surveillance. Okay, let's get more analysis on these markets then the price action that we're seeing across the session here with Andrew P global head of investment strategy Russell investments, Andrew happy new year. Thank you for joining us. So some optimism in these markets can we fade the omicron risk and look ahead to a strengthening economy? Well, I hope we can test the science right now, but obviously one thing we've learned from COVID is that we can never be completely confident about what's going to happen next. But yes, I think that in terms of where markets are, it does look like 2022 is going to be an above trend growth year for the global economy. But I think the theme for 2022 that I'd like to moderation. So we are going to see a moderation in growth, which is still above trend. We will see a moderation in returns but I do think equity returns will be positive. I think most controversially will, I think we'll see in moderation in inflation pressures globally as the proceeds. Well, in fact, we had the French inflation figures out just this morning, 3.4% year on year increase for the second largest economy in Europe. I mean, November, December still the highest level since 2008. For France. But how quickly do you think that inflation moderates? That's the key question. Well, I think I don't think it's peaked yet either. So I think it's probably still yet to peak and it will peak probably as we head into the spring. But once that happens and we're saying now we've oil prices aren't going up and we've seen OPEC is starting to increase the supply again and they are targeting moderate prices. We know the Chinese economy is slowing as if COVID starts to fade that big surge in good demand, which is caused to one of these model next will start to stage as well. We'll see those supply chain likely to start to clear up as well. All of those things suggested as we get towards the middle of the year. There should be a pretty clear downward trend emerging in inflation. I think that's going to be one of the big things because right now I think people are a bit overpainting to bad inflation. And do you think the market priced in too many hikes from the fed? Do we get to three? Is the fed behind the curve? Or are they on point? Well, I think what the phase is doing is that they're giving themselves optionality. And if you're a Central Bank, if you see inflation pressure, you see a lot of chatter about inflation, then you've got to say that you're worried about it. But I think this table will end up talking a bigger game than it probably ends up playing. So I think that the state, if we have that downward, we have a slowing economy, we have China under pressure and we have inflation indicators starting to trend lower later in the year. I think all of those things add up to central banks in general that move slightly slower pace to markets are currently anticipating. Okay, so then how bullish or bearish can we be for equity markets for 2022? And money into mega caps like apple like Tesla, apple again, the topping that $3 trillion level. So why are you point is that we've had three years of double digit gains in the S&P 500. So I think predicting a full Q double digit gains is a bit of a challenge. But I think in terms of thinking about the most important relative goal, which is due equities, do better than bonds. I think at this stage, we have central banks taking away accommodation only gradually. You don't get variation until central banks are planning to move towards outright type policy or they're doing right now is sending themselves up to slightly less accommodating policy. That's a more volatile environment for equities this to a positive environment, but he's relative to bonds. In terms of those big mega caps, I thought last year that might have been the final phase to make it catch particularly after the vaccine announcement in late 2020, it looked that toy for a while, then we got built as many of the bond market rally. Remember those big mega cats that what we call long duration stocks. So they will be heard if we see this rise in long-term rate space sustained. So I think that's going to be the other thing of 2022. If you also rising, then that's not great for these long duration. Technology mega cap type stuff. And I think the shorter duration of value cyclical stuff probably looks a little bit more attractive. Andrew, do we continue to see U.S. outperformance this year or does EM get a boost from a looser PBOC policy? And it's been a bit of a we don't make her over the last decade or more trying to call the end of U.S. dominance in terms of equity markets. But at some stage it has to end. And it's very related to that thing I just talked about. If you think about the U.S. market, what is the U.S. market? It's very much it's very much tick and healthcare. It's very much growth the long duration stocks. So we have that upward trend in long-term rates, that's a bit of a headwind for U.S. for the U.S. market U.S. market. Will it be replaced by EM? That's a much more challenging call, particularly given the risks around China. And given and Cuban, what we've seen so far in U.S. dollar spring. If we see the U.S. dollar weekend and if we see China coming with some really much stronger stimulus in the first half of the year, I think that one of the contrarian calls for 2022 would be to overweight offshore Chinese equities, which got hammered last year, but we need those things to fall in place before you can be confident these energy rotation into EM. Okay, Andrew, very interesting call for 2022 Andrew P is global head of investment strategy at Russell investments. Really good to have you on the program. Andrew, thank you so much. Looking forward to a great year with you as one of our guests, I'm sure in future. Let's also tell you then about where we stand in the markets as we go into U.S. hours. So futures actually up for the S&P 500, two tens of 1%. The White House likely to nominate Philip Jefferson for a fed seat, so he's a has had a couple of jobs at the fed previously, but this is a new name, so how hawkish or dovish will he be and lots of other threads to think about for markets today. And the UK is back open once again after the holidays, the FTSE 100 more than 1%, as you say, the future stateside points into gains of two tenths of a percent. We'll get all the details more analysis, more calls from strategists and investors in daybreak with Nathan Hager and Karen Moscow or for our London based listeners, it's Bloomberg's surveillance. It's the early edition with Matt Miller, Anna Edwards and Kayla nights. This is Bloomberg.

Global news, 24 hours a day on air and on Bloomberg quicktake, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts to more than a 120 countries, Michael Barr and this is Bloomberg Nathan. All right, Michael, thank you. We're coming up to 5 49 on Wall Street live from the Bloomberg interactive broker studios. This is Bloomberg daybreak. And we turn again to the pandemic this morning and yet another unheard of record in the omicron wave more than a million new COVID cases just in the U.S. in just one day. For more, we're joined by doctor Stewart ray, vice chair of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University school of medicine. Doctor, we've been watching this omicron variant spread like wildfire. That's the cliche that's been bandied about for weeks now. When you see numbers like this, I mean, maybe it's a silly question, but is there any way to keep this variant from spreading? Well, I think we do know that we have tools, I think there's a lot of fatigue and it's having impact on our concerted effort to limit spread. I think that very high quality masks really seem to be effective. We are not seeing healthcare workers get infected in healthcare settings wearing those high quality respirator masks, but they are not as available as they should be and I think a lot of people are still not wearing masks as carefully as they could when they're out and about. And that's one of the limitations. I think we also know that there are other things we can do with ventilation that could help and we're just not doing all that we can. Should the goal be to prevent spread of COVID at this point or to prevent serious illness or can we do both? Well, I think those are coupled. The spread of this virus will result in individually perhaps somewhat milder infections, the problem is even a milder variant can cause a tremendous wave when it's very highly infectious and we still have vulnerable people, vulnerable, either because they have not gotten vaccinated or because they have compromised immunity or other conditions, we have so many people that are susceptible. We will have a lot of disease if we have unlimited spend. How will we know when we've reached the peak of this wave? And how will we know if this is going to be the last wave? Well, I think it was something that we anticipated to some extent in conversations before that this virus is continuing to evolve. And with this many infections, the virus is still evolving. With your question about when will we know we're at the peak? The tough thing is it's always in retrospect. And we know that severity lags cases. And so we see this huge rise in cases. We're now seeing hospitalizations rivaling at a 100,000 currently. The numbers we saw in the biggest peak last winter. So we're clearly seeing a lot of hospitalizations and it seems likely that the severity will continue rising as a lagging indicator. So we're not at peak. We'll get there, but we have not yet seen the peak of severity and the disruption to our healthcare system is tremendous. Are we still seeing indications that omicron isn't producing as severe disease as prior waves or is that something that we can't say anymore? Well, I think that it is on an average basis, a little milder. But part of that is the accumulated immunity that we all have. So between vaccination, per infection, et cetera, we have a lot of people who are less susceptible and so the infections in people who are less susceptible are a little milder. So part of that is the sort of secular trend of mounting immunity in the population. The problem is that we still have people who can't mount that immunity or haven't and so we're going to continue to see this rise in hospitalizations when we get to a point where we're highly immune, we may be better off, but the virus is evolving and it's possible that it will continue to evade our immune responses. The current wave of omicron is partly driven by infection of people who had been infected last winter and are now susceptible again because of its evasive properties and their weighting so called natural immunity. Thank you as always for your insights as we continue to watch omicron spread. That's doctor Stewart ray, he's the vice chair of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University school of medicine. Karen. Nathan, it is 5 53 on Wall Street. It's time for the Bloomberg law report. Let's get to the legal stories. We're watching this morning from Bloomberg's Jeff Bellinger. New York New Jersey Connecticut and Maryland took their challenge to the $10,000 cap on the federal tax deduction for state and local taxes to the Supreme Court. Minnesota is the first state to announce it is adopting osha's vaccinate or test weekly standard for employers with 100 or more workers, a federal labor judge ordered the reinstatement of four McDonald's workers who were laid off by a Connecticut franchisee in 2020 warning employers can not use the pandemic as a pretense to purge certain workers. Bloomberg law, everything you need all on one legal research platform, including guidance and analysis and Bloomberg market intelligence, find out more at Bloomberg law dot com. Jeff, thank you. Now another legal story where watching brings us to the January 6th insurrection at the capitol. The chair of the House committee investigating the event says lawmakers are learning more about what transpired at The White House that day. Democratic representative Benny Thompson says the committee is looking at whether former president Trump's actions were part of a broader plan and whether they merit criminal referral to the Justice Department. At issue is the time from the start of the siege to the moment he released a video asking supporters to leave the capitol. For more on the matter, Bloomberg June Grasso speaks to former federal prosecutor Robert mince a partner at mccarter in English.

"Think you're going to get it better what they've offered down, which is basically because they're going to end this tapering. And let's be clear with the listeners, right? Tapering means they're going to slow the addition of assets to the balance sheet, which is already close to $9 trillion. So they're going to kind of end the growth of the balance sheet by March. I don't think you're going to get anything faster than that. I think the bigger question now, it's not necessarily in today. Specifically, not necessarily. The market is expecting about three hikes next year starting around May. Bigger question right now is once they stop adding to the balance sheet, are they going to actually start to reduce it? Like, will they proactively look to sell securities into the marketplace or let the ones mature and not replace it? That could have a big impact because a lot of the rate move we saw in the last three, four months of the year was about the short end of the curve. What's the fed going to do with the FedEx? If the fed starts changing, it's planned for what it does with its balance sheet in terms of reducing the size of it. That could really impact the longer end of the yield curve. And that has a lot of impacts across the economy, including markets like housing. Brian, I really appreciate your time. Thanks so much for stopping by. Brian whale and co CIO and generous portfolio manager at TC W fixed income group. We are produced. By Eric molo, he was an English major at university, but also a winner of a sports Emmy and the Edward R murrow award. Really? Yeah. That's pretty good set down to Washington D.C. now. We'll go to some of the smart people down there, talk about some world and national news with Nathan Hager. All right, Paul, thank you. President Biden plans to address the nation about the omicron variant this afternoon a day after the U.S. recorded more than a million new COVID cases in one day for the first time in the pandemic. Doctor Stewart ray at the Johns Hopkins university school of medicine says, even as quickly as omicron spreads, there is more we can do to slow it down. We are not seeing healthcare workers get infected in healthcare settings wearing those high quality respirator masks, but they are not as available as they should be and I think a lot of people are still not wearing masks as carefully as they could when they're out and about. Doctor Stewart ray at Johns Hopkins, the Centers for Disease Control is following the Food and Drug Administration, cutting the wait time for a third Pfizer dose from 6 months to 5 federal government still recommends a 6 month wait for the Moderna booster. Senators are returning to Washington with a to do list that will likely be delayed by negotiations over President Biden's build back better agenda. Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports. Lawmakers had hoped to have the president's social spending bill done last month, but senator Joe Manchin opposed it and it stalled out. The extra weeks of work to get that Bill done will make it harder for lawmakers to reach a government funding deal by February 18th. Republican senator Roy blunt of Missouri says it could happen in March, any longer and a full year continuing resolution could be on the table.

"At 1236 new from the CDC today a significant change in its recommendation in the way some people get their two shot COVID vaccines The CDC now says that some who get Pfizer or Moderna should consider waiting up to 8 weeks in between their first and second doses instead of the three or four weeks that was previously recommended The CDC says it comes out of research showing that the longer interval can actually provide more enduring protection against the virus The research suggests that 12 to 64 year olds and especially males ages 12 to 39 can benefit from that longer spacing in between the two shots They also say the longer weight may help diminish an already rare vaccination side effect which is a form of heart inflammation seen in some young men The original shorter interval is still recommended for people with weakened immune systems and folks who are 65 and older Meantime researchers are also learning more about how the COVID-19 booster shots are working When it comes to a booster shot protecting you from infection We see that dropping down after anywhere from three to 6 months depending on the person There's a lot of variability But doctor Stewart ray of Johns Hopkins hospital says when it comes to preventing severe outcomes from COVID there's mounting evidence boosters last month possibly years What we need to do is get the most vulnerable people protected as well as we can because we're not going to stop the virus in its tracks What we can hope to do is lower the level of spread so that new variants don't evolve Christy king.

on the pandemic with these trucker protests continuing and mask mandates being lifted doctor Stewart ray is with us now Vice chair of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University school of medicine Doctor it's good to have you with us as always I just saw a headline cross of Johns Hopkins data showing that the world has surpassed 400 million known coronavirus cases as of yesterday Just a month ago we were at 300 million around the world And I guess if nothing else it says just how dramatic the spread of all Macron has been Yes scale which I don't think any of us could have imagined two years ago It's really come across the world and of course there's likely undercounting of cases So going forward it's going to be interesting to see how we face this And it's been interesting as well to see the push in a number of states particularly in the northeast to ease up on public health restrictions the mask mandates that sort of thing even as we are seeing this dramatic rise in case counts from a public health perspective what's the view on that in terms of easing up on mask mandates I think we all recognize that folks are exhausted and I don't think that if we were starting out now with 2500 deaths a day or more that we would be accepting the current situation as acceptable but I think I was also a big part of this is that lend it or not people really should be thinking about how effective masks are and the reality that we need to limit spread of this virus It's a shame that mandates are the big conversation when it should just be the sensible to wear a mask And that's really where we need to get And if we can politicize the wearing a mask and just wear them when rates are high that would be really helpful Well there has been some mixed messaging hasn't there about the effectiveness of masks whether it's cloth masks or kn 95s or N95s In terms of that can you provide a little more clarity about the type of mask that works well and why people should be wearing masks even if they're fully vaccinated and boosted Certainly over the last two years we've learned a lot and when we started out we didn't understand how important masks would be We didn't understand how important aerosol transmission was So now that we have so much more information it's very clear that masks are very effective for limiting transmission of this virus And that cloth masks are especially single layer cloth masks are very minimally effective whereas what we call surgical masks those pleated masks that are handed out in healthcare establishments Those are actually remarkably effective It is true that N95 KF 94 K 95 masks respirator masks are more effective when one properly but the big thing is that the mask that works is the one that you wear well and that you can actually keep on I find that some of the other respiratory branch like the TF 94s and K 95s are more comfortable to wear for long periods of time when I'm out moving around in businesses and things like that Those are very highly effective probably a little more effective than the surgical mask but only if warn well And so I think people just need to try to find one that is comfortable for them and where it I only have about 30 seconds left here but I want to get your thoughts on these trucker protests have been going on north of the border for nearly two weeks now Do those have an effect on the public health Well I think when people protest mass mandates it further divides us the way of the masks And I hope that folks look at those as struggles around the political divisions and not about the efficacy of masks And if we can just wear these I think that I don't know whether there are crowd issues around the protests I don't know if they and themselves are spreading events but we do need to try to get past this notion that there's a battle over masking And I'm not sure exactly on a policy level but the best way to communicate about that is All right well as always thank you

the pandemic now as we continue to track the omicron variant and efforts to fight it Doctor Stewart ray is with us this morning vice chair of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University school of medicine Doctor good morning I'd like to get an update from you on where you think the omicron pandemic is going at this point when we've seen pretty dramatic drops in cases and hospitalizations particularly in New York City and other parts of the northeast over the past day or so Good morning looking better in areas that were hit first with this wave We're still seeing rises in hospitalizations and deaths in many areas and we probably haven't seen the worst of it in areas that it arrived later but I think we're definitely seeing a turn for the better in many areas What are you looking for when it comes to how this pandemic could play out from here Are you concerned about future variants I am I think that a lot of immunity has been built up through vaccination and through some infections Obviously the tremendous cost we have a couple thousand people in America dying every day from this virus So it's a costly effort but we're getting a level of immunity that may prevent future big waves of hospitalizations and deaths We're going to have to see whether the immunity from immigrant really translates to broad immunity and whether a new variant might arise from somewhere which is much different and the possibility is always there that the next one could result in fear disease I think the hope that everyone has is that it will become milder if it evolves again but most people have transmitted the virus before they develop severe disease So the link between severe disease and transmission probably isn't one we can count on I wanted to ask you a little bit more about the effect of a infection on future infection We've gotten more studies I think there was one just yesterday from South Africa that suggested that an omicron infection can protect against delta which I think we've seen is a much more severe strain compared to uma cron Is that a reason to force some hope that the widespread spread of omicron could get us closer to that endemic phase Yes I think that it does suggest that we're going to have less severe disease in the future and people who have had the infection or who have been vaccinated The challenge is that we don't know that the next one will be similar enough and basically we may be boxing the virus into a corner where it's next evolutionary step might require that it be antigenically different enough that it can evade some of this immunity It's really something that we're going to have to learn and fortunately we have a bunch of tools available to us like rapid testing and high quality mass and other things that can help mitigate any variant that might come along if it spreads To that point we got the rollout of the new free at home testing website from the postal service yesterday and we're also hearing this morning that The White House is going to announce a plan to make 400 million N95 masks available for free at pharmacies What kind of impact could those steps have Well I'm hoping this gives some people a chance to sort of dip their toe in the water with tools that they might not have used much or make them more available to people who really were motivated but couldn't access them It's not enough of these things to really cover the need but it certainly will give people a chance to try these things and you have some comfort with them and prepare for any eventualities that might come up We're all hoping that we're seeing the beginning of the end here but it's still some risk that we'll see more trouble in the future We're just trying to have tools in hand to manage what comes In our last minute here doctor how much longer do you think we're going to need to deploy these tools These public health measures that many of us the majority of us I think have been trying to put in place over the last almost two years now Well I'm hoping that within a few months we're going to have a lot less of this widespread infection And then people can begin really paying attention to local rates and their own susceptibility and the susceptible of people around them And so I'm hoping that we can begin much more targeted interventions and endemic phase doesn't mean it won't cause a lot of death and illness It just means that it will become a more predictable pattern I'm hoping that we can use these tools to really lower that rate during demo phase to low levels of complications for people Just quickly do you think it could happen this year What The return to an endemic phase or the move to an endemic phase at least Well I think it could become more predictable this year but then we could have outbreaks It's like influenza at that point where a new genetic change could cause disruption.

Wall Street line from the Bloomberg interactive broker studios This is Bloomberg daybreak Let's get more now on our top story this morning as the U.S. and UK pull out all the stops against a winter wave of the coronavirus as we continue to learn more about the omicron variant Joining us now is doctor Stewart ray vice chair of medicine at the Johns Hopkins school of medicine Doctor ray it's good to speak with you this morning as we continue to see big surges of hospitalizations particularly in the northeast Understand that these are mainly driven by the delta variant as opposed to uma cron but are you concerned at all that the health system has the capacity to handle a winter wave I think it's an important thing to consider because we have made a lot of progress We have some new tools but we are seeing a big rise in hospitalizations and people are really fatigued It's a tough situation to be facing as winter is just driving Yeah and we're seeing these surges in states that are pretty highly vaccinated compared to other parts of the country thinking particularly about Massachusetts and New York State and New Jersey What does that tell us about how this winter wave could go and how resilient the coronavirus is against the vaccines I think it does illustrate that we have to use all the tools in our tool belt We can't just depend on the vaccine to carry all the weight and we don't know what will happen and the other states and we may well see waves and that may have to do with dynamics like crowding and human behavior but we definitely are seeing a heavy load and we should be thinking about how we use masks ventilation rapid tests other tools that we have to make sure that we don't leave the vaccine to fail on its own Is there a risk that the winter wave this year could be as bad as waves we've seen in the past when people have started to congregate inside more as the temperatures go down The fact that we have the level of vaccination that we have now compared to last year could it be as bad as that Well these variants are increasingly infectious in each wave is a more infectious one and reaches more potentially more people because it's so much more infectious and we're seeing doubling times meaning that the time it takes for the number of infections to double shorten And so the spread is getting more aggressive And so we're sort of fighting a tide We do have additional tools and we have some new drugs we're going to learn more about them as we go forward And many of them have retained activity against the newest variants but we do have to be cautious about how we approach this and people really need to be thinking about ways to reduce stress I want to get your reaction as well to the latest study that we've seen out of South Africa's largest health insurance provider just out this morning saying that the Pfizer vaccine the two shot regimen that's considered fully vaccinated stops 70% of hospitalizations from the omicron variant while overall it's just 33% effective against infection from the new strain What's your reaction to that Well I think we have to be cautious We're very fortunate to have great scientists in South Africa giving us glimpses from a distance But we don't know how these data will translate and it's also very early days But I think we can look at it half full the vaccines do work but it looks like they're less effective against this new variant And so we have to be cautious And as we think about the coming winter we can also look at whether we've done all we can with boosting and vaccinating the vulnerable because we are going to be facing a more infectious variant which does appear to evade immune responses The other thing I would say is that the reinfection rate the rate of people being infected after having COVID is very high with OM And so we should be thinking that we should do we can which means vaccinate because prior infection with COVID is not going to cover us in this coming wave as overcome comes across the pond Advice certainly noted as the UK is really starting to surge its booster vaccination campaign as it's starting to deal with the omicron variant as

That's exactly what we're talking about antibody dependent enhancement and then it says this specific and significant risk of antibody dependent enhancement should have been and should be now prominently independently independently disclosed to research subjects currently vaccine trials as well as those being recruited for those trials and future patients mean the ones being given right now in order to meet the medical ethics standards of patient comprehension for informed consent. Isn't it ridiculous. Isn't this just painfully insulting. That we are staring at the national library of medicine. They know this is here. Ap doesn't care or they didn't even look it because they know what they're supposed to do has not been observed. Accepted has right.

Get to animal trials right. i mean th. There's the one that we've talked about before..
