You know, Here's a Kroger's doing if you work for Kroger. Gonna give you a hand. Oh, Forget it. If you get the vaccination for the pandemic in the cove in 19, you know which was good because it makes everybody safer.

I think you still paying people $100 may be our only hope. I'm not miss speaking. And I'm not trying to irritate anybody. But I think that's good that they're doing that. All I'm saying is I heart media. I'll take the extra 100. If I can get I'll get the shots and give me $100. I'll show you I'll film it and put it online video it when I When I can actually get it.

"Available to us. We'll get all good news. We all need to have a little patience until we get vaccinated. But the vaccines coming and we now have more and more information every day that this is really a safe vaccine. These initial concerns about allergic reaction turns out they do occur but extremely rare on we have great data coming out from Israel and other places that this vaccine really works well. In a regular, You know, not the special study conditions but regular conditions. But good news on top of good news. Please get vaccinated when your opportunities come. I have one more question. Dean. Ah Public Health in University, Nebraska Medical Center, Dr Alec Khan was sterling on 700 wlw. Then we can open up the phone. So I want to delay this break a little bit. Give people a chance to ask their questions. And since that we lost, we didn't really lose. Larry King passed away. On sort of in the vein of Larry King, who I grew up listening to way late. And when I was supposed to be in bed overnight to be like, uh, you know, I owe Finney town. You know what you're on. You know, whatever you need, ask questions. You know, in that type of thing, give people a chance to call and interact, which is always like playing Russian roulette. Want to give a chance for that very thing to ask you some questions. You always want to talk to people besides me, which I don't take personally, by the way. 513749 7800 the big £1.718 tea. If you have a question about this cove, it 19 situation. This is your time to act is a guy who's been about it is intimate issue can be chasing down virus, pathogens and things killing people all over the world. Indiana public health, former head of the CDC, uh Stockpile on everything else in the past, so you've lived it, you living and breathing. It's probably bad choice of terminology right now considering what we're talking about, but we hopefully get some people online to ask some questions. I wonder this. If you were taking care, say of someone elderly, A parent's or grandparent's. They may you know, just by age, they're more vulnerable. Maybe in their early to mid seventies, maybe maybe older. And you may be bringing groceries or having groceries delivered. What have you when there comes a time for them to be inoculated? Vaccinated? Where does it stand? Whether if they're sharing your home with you, or youth with them, How does that fall? And how concerned should you be to get the vaccine vaccine are available to you? Yes, in a timely fashion. Help not kill your loved one, I guess. I expect excellent point. So the vaccine strategy in the United States currently is really about producing as many deaths as possible. So we know that, for example, those in long term care facilities 40% of deaths have occurred amongst people in long term care facilities. There are nursing homes or hold eight homes, depending on how you call them where you are in the United States. And so those were up front, like get you vaccinated. Now, the next group of individuals, which represents probably The next 40% of death. Go 65 years of age and older, So though they're also going to get vaccinated, So as we vaccinate all of these elderly individuals in the United States, we should see a dramatic drop in debts, which would be so wonderful because we're over before I mean 400,000 tragic deaths in the United States. From this disease so far, so that's all excellent. Now selling. I have a 93 year old God, Mom that I take care of, and I have been doing her shopping since March, so I'm the only one who does all her shopping. For her Just because of exactly what you're talking about. How do you make sure you protect the people with in your household? Who? Maybe elderly. And so? Yes. Uh, I do all the shopping for them. Help protect them. Protect my God, Mom as much as possible, and I've got her on the list in the county that I live in. So that is the moment they open up vaccine for her. I will go get her vaccinated. And that would be my recommendation to all of your listeners that once your time comes up for your loved one's time is is there to get vaccinated. Please go. Show up and get vaccinated. There you go. Well, let's not go to mount. Look out. We'll talk to Jean. You're on. I just sound like no longer lurking amount. Look out, Gene, you're on with Dr Ali Khan. Hi. Thanks for taking my call. Um, are you there? Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, honey, I'm 78 years old, and I'm scheduled to get that vaccine this coming week. I wanted to ask the doctor I have never had trouble taking back scenes like the flu or other loom a clock on the moon, Yuri, But I was allergic to it. Um, Blood pressure drug called the sergeant. Is that in any way gonna pose I didn't no longer take that That was about 10 years ago. My calling my regular doctor. They said to take Benadryl before I go to get the vaccine. I wondered if this doctor would agree with that. And that I'm OK to get that. Kobe vaccine. There you go. So in other words, so allergic reaction in the past to a drug not taken in about a decade. Uh, thank you Machine. It's a pleasure chatting with you. So the Contra indications are very few to these vaccines because there's they used a different type of technology from previous Vaccine that I'm not going to countermand which your position suggested to you of what you do before you get vaccinated, But you should be very safe to get vaccinated. And I will tell you that we watch people for 15 to 30 minutes after they get vaccinated and make sure that they don't have an allergic reaction. So congratulations. Good luck getting vaccinated. Please do remember to stay protected. To wear mask and watch your hands and social distancing even after you get your second does to make sure that you stay protected until more disease goes down in our community. There you go. Thanks. Gene, Indiana, John Muir was Sterling and Dr Khan on the Big one. Yes. Thank you. Sterling and Dr Khan..

Try health, premier health and this guy for some reason, who took my call who used to oversee the CDC cilia strategic supply of stuff that somehow wasn't there. He was not on the job at the time.

But yours If you want to know about vaccines or whatever you can tweet at Sterling Radio on then maybe we'll get some people lined up on the phone when the time comes and will rip through because it's not just my I got lots of questions. That's all I've ever had as a kid. You think I'm annoying now asking questions. Uh, imagine me being like, five years old. It hasn't changed a lot. I'm just taller and I drive now that's basically it And I'm like I'm on my own, trying to like, survive the world. Also Tim McGee going to join his former Bengal wide receiver who we get to hear regularly during Bangles times. Unfortunately, not this conference championship weekend with the NFL games, kicking off the pregame at two o'clock here, But he does the postgame show and sports talk stuff, which took Ludwig. But we'll talk to Tim about what he sees because he's been to these championship games before he's been to the Super Bowl, and we'll see what it's like and what he sees between this Tampa Bay game up in Green Bay. They're trying to get back to Tampa to play in their own state, which has never happened before. I wondered about that. And talking to David Purdom from ESPN Chalk on Friday night, no team has ever gotten to the Super Bowl and playing their own place. So that could be a first and I'm Tom Brady is only like 276 years old in football years. It's only a slight exaggeration. Aaron Rodgers about 182 and has just been spectacular, so that should be a good one of them. The Bills and Kansas City Holy crap, You got a team trying to get back to the Super Bowl and do it again. Concussion or otherwise, there's a lot of layers to this. We'll talk to Tim McGee about in just about an hour. I want to start, though, with something And Ah, I I've spent the last I was off yesterday. Gamble and Finn were on because there was no basketball because a covert stuff And I got some love email. I got some hate email. I'm fine with both. You can email to sterling at 700 wlw dot com. But here's the thing. So Friday night. I wasn't wrong and what I discussed and what I said in my position, But my messaging was wrong. My I got worked up. I got I was viscerally affected. By what's been going on like a lot of people. And I did not maintain my cool in my calm collective self. I got a little worked up. I arguably could have been. This chick has told me before, maybe a little bit belligerent. The podcast is there for you to listen to later and I'm man enough. To say I'm sorry. On Lee about my aggressive nature and dealing with the weirdness, not for Mike. I'm absolutely right about what? And if you're not aware because it was Friday night, maybe you have a life and you weren't driving around and you were forced because of the curfew. That's another week after 10 o'clock, you're supposed to be home huddled down safely to stay away from the virus. Maybe you missed it. I don't know. I would hope that you were here. But see, I all I can see. Is Jeff now and then 71 to my right into the left the hallway and it doesn't matter So I don't know wherever you are now in 71 75. I can't peer through the speaker. Good. I mean, I just did it, but I can't really see you. So if you did not hear the show Which is ridiculous. You should Everyone's doing it. Millions of people. Here's what part of the conversation was about. We did a lot of things. It wasn't just what I'm about to get mention here, and I'll give you a chance in the next segment to sound off on a little bit, and then I think we can package it up and put it away. I've had family. I've had friends. I've had family and in radio friend. And others approach me. And talk about these very strange days in which we're living and the conversation on. I know I'm already sick to my stomach, just starting to mention it again, but I wanted to apologize. Again, not because I was wrong, but because of the way I may be delivered the message or responded to people who were Not right. And I should be better than that. What has been presented to me. Is that for unity sake So we can all get past and get healthy and get along again. Is that it should be really no penalty for what the hell happened..

"World that fear by anti ballast. This is democracy now democracy now dot org the quarantine report. I'm amy goodman with nursing shea. More than eight thousand. Americans have died from cove in one thousand nine hundred in the last two days alone. Experts believe the outbreak will get even worse before the effects of vaccines are felt the centers for disease control and prevention warns. another ninety. Two thousand people could die in the next. Three weeks is complaints grow over the slow distribution of vaccines and effort to speed up the vaccine. Roll out the cdc's expanded its guidelines to include eligibility for anyone sixty five or older as well as those with some underlying health conditions for more we go to omaha nebraska on the rollout around the world and in the us. We're joined by. Dr ali khan epidemiologist and dean of the college of public health at the university of nebraska medical center where he joins us now. He's the former director of the cdc's office of public health preparedness and response where he the strategic national stockpile. Dr khan welcome back to democracy now so you have these new. Cdc guidelines anyone sixty five or older can get this vaccine or people with co morbidity with underlying problems below that As well as of course teachers and healthcare professionals and the biden decision as well as the trump administration decision now to just release everything not to save half for people to go back and get their second dose for the moderna and the pfizer vaccines which requires two doses for the full protection. What are your thoughts about this. Thank you so. This really helps to balance the supply demand. Mismatch were seeing across america. So they've been approximately thirty million doses distributed but only about ten million doses actually administered. So i think the overall national numbers thirty percent of doses that have been distributed have been administered. We're seeing again. Great variability across states actually a fourfold ability in their ability to get this vaccine out by releasing all the vaccine you take care of addressing issues where sites have more people than vaccine and by increasing the number of people who are eligible. You'd take care of sites that are throwing away vaccine because they can't give it to anybody so it addresses some of the mismatch. But there's a real concern here so the first concern. Is this a no way addresses. The continued operational insufficiency We are seeing at local and state level. Do they have the processes and procedures in place to enroll these people vaccinate them and track them. I also have slight concern about trust so by increasing the people who are eligible. That's approximately one hundred and fifty million people who have just now been made eligible. What's not going to happen is there isn't going to be three hundred million doses of vaccine that are about to be released tomorrow so these individuals still going to get vaccinated over the next couple of months And so we need to remind people that this doesn't mean you can get vaccinated tomorrow. The other concern is from the manufacturing standpoint. So we've had a mismatch between distribution and administration but there's also the concern of a mismatch between matinee between manufacturing and administration because we know one vaccine is not sufficient you need to get to vaccines and so manufacturing be able to keep up with all of this increased demand for vaccine so it's not a panacea. It's not a solution. It'll help some of the problem. But the fundamental issues around improving operations remain untouched. Upon could you comment also on the reports that some health workers who were of course the first among those to be offered the vaccine that some health workers have been refusing the vaccine. That's one point. And then the second issue is what we know about those who received both doses of either vaccine the likelihood of them still being able to spread the virus if they become infected a so. Those are excellent questions. We should not be surprised that there's vaccine hesitancy in the united states including amongst healthcare workers as we heard from your last guest has been a significant polarization in politicization of this response. And often that hasn't been see sorta cleaves along ideological lines In our facilities here in nebraska. We've almost had over ninety five percent compliance so people are lining up to get back. Sonate it so. We need to be careful about anecdotes about who does not wanna get vaccinated. The good news is that for people who are getting two doses of vaccine. Recent report suggests that the likely protected for a year which is excellent news about the vaccine. We do not yet have the data if getting vaccinated present prevents disease transmission. So you could get back. Aided you may have mile day symptomatic disease but you still could be infecting other people We just didn't have enough time to collect that data and often that data is collected after the fact is back. Scene is administered within the community. So your question is a great reminder that even would vaccination. We still need to make sure that people are wearing masks that their social distancing that they're washing hands and a great reminder that there's one point seven billion people right now who wake up with near zero cases and zero beds they go to live sporting events. Their economies are growing. And we can do that. Same thing here in the united states we use good science if we're data driven and we won't need a whole lot of vaccine to drop this tragic number of cases we continue to see in the us. And i believe for the fourth time third time in a row. We've had over four thousand debts in a single day from completely preventable disease. Terrible fear that now flattening the curve means going straight up. What about dr kahn. If you're getting to vaccines. Johnson and johnson apparently now has a one shot vaccine and they are just about to make an announcement about that. But if you get the pfizer for example what if you go back and they only have the moderna. Are the studies done that. Show that this is okay to mix and match. No there are actually. No studies are available. That suggest it's okay to mix and match and this is a lot of effort at the local health departments to make sure you go back and get the exact same vaccine Good point also by johnson and johnson. That vaccine would be a game changer. If the phase three studies suggest that it's efficacious and safe to give to americans. It's a single dose. There's not these issues about refrigeration freezing maintaining these vaccines under frozen conditions and it does allow the more typical mindset of mass vaccination campaign. Because you don't need to have a relationship with the people who you vaccinate and you don't need to follow up with. You just need to give them that one dose. So hopefully we'll hear good news. In the next couple of weeks on the johnson and johnson vaccine and their commitment to supply approximately twelve million doses by the end of february. And let's not forget is the world. Health organization has pointed out of the forty-six six countries. That started vaccinating. The population's only one is low income. A future discussion tomorrow. We'll be joined by dr peter. Salt the son of jonas salk inventor of the polio vaccine. Dr ali khan thanks so much for being with us from omaha epidemiology epidemiologist and dean of the college of public health at the university nebraska medical center former director at cdc.
