  • COVID.

  • AND THE STORY OF A BLACK MIDWIFE

  • I AM JOHN YANG.

  • DONALD TRUMP'S DECISIVE VICTORY

  • IN YESTERDAY'S SOUTH CAROLINA

  • PRIMARY -- IN NIKKI HALEY'S HOME

  • STATE -- MOVED THE FORMER

  • PRESIDENT THAT MUCH CLOSER TO

  • THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION.

  • WITH NEARLY ALL OF THE VOTES

  • COUNTED, TRUMP LEADS HALEY BY 20

  • PERCENTAGE POINTS.

  • AND HE'S WON AT LEAST 44 OF THE

  • STATE'S 50 DELEGATES, BRINGING

  • HIS OVERALL TOTAL TO MORE THAN

  • 100.

  • DESPITE THE LOSS, HALEY TOLD

  • SUPPORTERS LAST NIGHT THAT SHE'S

  • NOT GIVING UP.

  • >> I'M AN ACCOUNTANT.

  • I KNOW 40% IS NOT 50%.

  • BUT I ALSO KNOW 40% IS NOT SOME

  • TINY GROUP.

  • THERE ARE HUGE NUMBERS OF VOTERS

  • IN OUR REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES WHO

  • ARE SAYING THEY WANT AN

  • ALTERNATIVE.

  • JOHN: THE NEXT PRIMARY IS

  • MICHIGAN ON TUESDAY -- IT'S THE

  • LAST MAJOR CONTEST BEFORE MORE

  • THAN A DOZEN STATES VOTE IN

  • MARCH WITH MORE THAN A THOUSAND

  • DELEGATES UP FOR GRABS.

  • IN ISRAEL'S WAR WITH HAMAS,

  • THERE ARE SIGNS OF SLOW PROGRESS

  • TOWARD A DEAL FOR A CEASE-FIRE

  • AND RELEASE OF BOTH ISRAELI

  • HOSTAGES AND PALESTINIAN

  • PRISONERS.

  • AN EGYPTIAN OFFICIAL TELLS THE

  • ASSOCIATED PRESS THAT THE DEAL

  • THAT'S EMERGING FROM TALKS IN

  • QATAR WOULD CALL FOR A SIX-WEEK

  • PAUSE IN FIGHTING, INCREASED AID

  • DELIVERIES TO THE GAZA STRIP,

  • AND THE RELEASE OF 40 ISRAELI

  • HOSTAGES, AND HUNDREDS OF

  • PALESTINIAN PRISONERS.

  • IN ISRAEL, PROTESTERS ARE

  • KEEPING UP PRESSURE ON THE

  • GOVERNMENT FOR THE HOSTAGES'

  • RETURN.

  • ON CBS'S "FACE THE NATION,"

  • ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN

  • NETANYAHU SAID GETTING AN

  • AGREEMENT WAS UP TO HAMAS.

  • >> I CAN TELL YOU THAT WE'RE ALL

  • WORKING ON IT.

  • WE WANT IT, I WANT IT.

  • I CAN'T TELL YOU IF WE'LL HAVE

  • IT.

  • BUT IF HAMAS GOES DOWN FROM ITS

  • DELUSIONAL CLAIMS AND GOES DOWN-

  • CAN BRING THEM DOWN TO EARTH,

  • THEN WE'LL HAVE THE PROGRESS

  • THAT WE ALL WANT.

  • JOHN: THAT IN YAHOO! SET A

  • CEASE-FIRE DEAL WITH DELAY BUT

  • NOT CANCEL AN OFFENSIVE IN RAFA

  • WHERE MORE THAN HALF OF GAZA'S 2

  • MILLION RESIDENTS ARE TAKEN

  • REFUGE.

  • A MAN SET HIMSELF ON FIRE

  • OUTSIDE THE ISRAELI EMBASSY IN

  • WASHINGTON.

  • THE MAN WAS TAKEN TO THE

  • HOSPITAL WOULD LIVES EARNING

  • INJURIES.

  • THE TIMES OF ISRAEL REPORTS NO

  • EMBASSY STAFF WAS INVOLVED.

  • STILL TO COME, HOW

  • MISINFORMATION ABOUT VACCINES IS

  • CONTRIBUTING TO A RISE IN SOME

  • PREVENTABLE DISEASES AND A BLACK

  • MIDWIFE'S STORY IS TOLD BY HER

  • GRANDDAUGHTER TO HER

  • GREAT-GRANDDAUGHTER.

  • >> THIS IS PBS NEWS WEEKEND FROM

  • WETA STUDIOS IN WASHINGTON, HOME

  • OF THE PBS NEWSHOUR ON PBS.

  • JOHN: THE END OF PANDEMIC-ERA

  • PROTECTIONS FOR MEDICAID

  • PARTICIPANTS HAS MEANT THE END

  • OF COVERAGE SO FAR FOR MORE THAN

  • SEVENTEEN MILLION LOW-INCOME

  • AMERICANS.

  • AND STATES ARE STILL CHECKING TO

  • SEE IF MORE RECIPIENTS ARE NO

  • LONG ELIGIBLE -- A PROCESS KNOWN

  • AS "UNWINDING."

  • NOW THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS

  • RAISING QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT

  • PROCESS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT

  • COMES TO CHILDREN.

  • IN DECEMBER, THE DEPARTMENT OF

  • HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES SENT

  • LETTERS TELLING NINE STATES WITH

  • THE HIGHEST NUMBERS OF CHILDREN

  • LOSING COVERAGE THAT THEY MUST

  • DO MORE KEEP CHILDREN IN THE

  • PROGRAM.

  • ONE OF THOSE STATES IS FLORIDA,

  • WHICH IS CONSIDERING OTHER

  • CHANGES TO THE WAY IT PROVIDES

  • HEALTH INSURANCE TO CHILDREN

  • FROM LOW TO MODERATE INCOME

  • FAMILIES, EXPANDING ACCESS FOR

  • SOME, LIMITING IT FOR OTHERS.

  • ALI ROGIN HAS MORE.

  • ALI: SINCE THE MEDICAID

  • UNWINDING BEGAN LAST SPRING,

  • FLORIDA HAS REMOVED 420,000

  • CHILDREN FROM THE ROLLS OF BOTH

  • MEDICAID AND CHIP.

  • THE CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE

  • PROGRAM.

  • CHIP INSURES CHILDREN FROM

  • FAMILIES WITH MODEST INCOME, BUT

  • THAT MAKE TOO MUCH MONEY TO

  • QUALIFY FOR MEDICAID.

  • FLORIDA IS ALSO CHALLENGING A

  • FEDERAL LAW THAT WENT INTO

  • EFFECT AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS

  • YEAR, REQUIRING STATES TO

  • PROVIDE CHILDREN WITH 12 MONTHS

  • OF CONTINUOUS MEDICAID OR CHIP

  • ELIGIBILITY.

  • BUT FLORIDA ALSO TOOK STEPS TO

  • EXPAND CHIP ELIGIBILITY VOTING

  • LAST YEAR TO INCREASE THE AMOUNT

  • OF INCOME A FAMILY CAN HAVE

  • BEFORE THEY NO LONGER QUALIFY

  • FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE

  • PROGRAMS.

  • DANIEL CHANG IS A CORRESPONDENT

  • BASED IN FLORIDA FOR KFF HEALTH

  • NEWS.

  • HERE TO BREAK IT ALL DOWN FOR

  • US.

  • SO DANIEL, WE HAVE THE MEDICAID

  • SITUATION.

  • WE HAVE FLORIDA'S CHIP

  • SITUATION.

  • CAN YOU TELL US BROADLY WHAT IS

  • THE STATE OF HEALTH INSURANCE

  • FOR CHILDREN IN FLORIDA RIGHT

  • NOW?

  • AND IF YOU CAN, HOW DOES IT

  • COMPARE TO WHAT'S HAPPENING IN

  • OTHER STATES RIGHT NOW?

  • DANIEL: SO FLORIDA HAS A

  • CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE

  • PROGRAM LIKE PRETTY MUCH EVERY

  • OTHER STATE DOES RIGHT NOW.

  • AND LAST YEAR, IT HAD ABOUT

  • 120,000 CHILDREN IN ITS PROGRAM

  • FOR LOW AND MODERATE INCOME

  • FAMILIES.

  • AND AH WHAT FLORIDA IS DOING IS

  • IT'S IT'S CONTESTING THE FEDERAL

  • -- AND WHAT FLORIDA IS DOING IS

  • IT'S CONTESTING THE FEDERAL

  • GOVERNMENT'S AUTHORITY TO

  • ESSENTIALLY CHANGE THE RULES OF

  • HOW KIDS STAY ENROLLED IN THE

  • PROGRAM.

  • WHAT FLORIDA IS SAYING IS THAT,

  • IT SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DIS

  • ENROLL CHILDREN FROM THE

  • CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE

  • PROGRAM IF THEIR PARENTS DON'T

  • PAY PREMIUMS.

  • THEY GET A 30 DAY GRACE PERIOD

  • AFTER THAT.

  • VACCINES HAVE PROVEN TO BE AN

  • EFFECTIVE WEAPON AGAINST MANY

  • DISEASES.

  • YOU CAN ONLY REQUIRE THEM TO PAY

  • THE FIRST MONTH.

  • AFTER THAT, IF THEIR PARENTS DO

  • NOT PAY, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE THEM

  • ON FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 11

  • MONTHS.

  • FLORIDA SAYS THAT IS NOT FAIR

  • AND WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO

  • DISENROLL KIDS FROM CHIP IF

  • THEIR PARENTS DID NOT PAY THEIR

  • PREMIUMS.

  • WE NEED THAT MONEY TO FUND THE

  • PROGRAM AND IT IS ACCUSING THE

  • FEDS OF BASICALLY NOT FOLLOWING

  • THE PROCESS THAT IS REQUIRED FOR

  • CREATING NEW RULES LIKE THIS.

  • ALI: ARE THERE ANY OTHER STATES

  • WHO ARE BRINGING UP THE SAME

  • CONCERNS AS FLORIDA IS OR ARE

  • THEY OUT ON THEIR OWN ON THIS

  • ONE?

  • DANIEL: FLORIDA IS THE ONLY

  • STATE AS FAR AS I AM AWARE THAT

  • HAS CHALLENGED THE FEDERAL

  • GOVERNMENT'S NEW RULE ALTHOUGH

  • THERE ARE 18 OTHER STATES THAT

  • DO USE THE SAME PROCESS, MEANING

  • THAT THEY WILL DISENROLL

  • CHILDREN FROM CHIP IF THEIR

  • PARENTS DON'T PAY THE MONTHLY

  • PREMIUMS.

  • THOUGH THOSE 18 OTHER STATES

  • WILL HAVE TO DECIDE IF THEY WANT

  • TO FOLLOW THE NEW FEDERAL RULES

  • OR JOIN FLORIDA IN ITS LAWSUIT.

  • ALI: HOW IS THE BIDEN

  • ADMINISTRATION RESPONDING TO

  • FLORIDA'S SUIT?

  • DANIEL: THEY FILED THE FIRST

  • RESPONSE IN THIS WEEK AND

  • ESSENTIALLY WHAT THE BIDEN

  • ADMINISTRATION IS SAYING IS THAT

  • THE CONSOLIDATED APPROPRIATIONS

  • ACT OF 2023 CHANGED THE RULES IN

  • TWO FUNDAMENTAL WAYS.

  • ALI: THAT IS THE BILL THAT

  • ESTABLISHED THIS 12 MONTH

  • CONTINUOUS ELIGIBILITY PERIOD.

  • DANIEL: THAT IS CORRECT.

  • THE NEW RULES UNDER THAT LAW

  • WENT INTO EFFECT ON JANUARY 1

  • AND ESSENTIALLY WHAT THE BIDEN

  • ADMINISTRATION IS SAYING IS THAT

  • THE LAW NO LONGER ALLOWED

  • CONTINUOUS ELIGIBILITY TO BE

  • OPTIONAL.

  • IT IS NOW MANDATORY FOR MEDICAID

  • AND CHIP.

  • WHAT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS

  • SAYING IS ESSENTIALLY THAT

  • STATES WERE NEVER ALLOWED TO

  • DISENROLL PEOPLE FROM MEDICAID

  • FOR NONPAYMENT OF PREMIUMS

  • DURING A CONTINUOUS ELIGIBILITY

  • PERIOD AND NOW THE SAME HAS TO

  • APPLY TO KIDS IN CHIP.

  • THEY HAVE TO HAVE THAT SAME

  • PROTECTION AND THAT IS

  • ESSENTIALLY WHAT THE BIDEN

  • ADMINISTRATION IS DOING.

  • ALI: AT THE SAME TIME, THIS CHIP

  • STUFF IS HAPPENING, FLORIDA HAS

  • ALSO COME UNDER SCRUTINY FROM

  • THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR

  • DISENROLLING WHAT THE HH S SAYS

  • IS A VERY HIGH PROPORTION OF

  • CHILDREN FROM THE MEDICAID

  • ROLLS.

  • WHY IS FLORIDA COMING UNDER

  • SPECIFIC SCRUTINY FOR THIS AND

  • DOES IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH

  • THE FACT THAT IT IS ONE OF 10

  • STATES THAT DID NOT EXPAND

  • MEDICAID COVERAGE DURING THE

  • AFFORDABLE CARE ACT?

  • DANIEL: FLORIDA HAS DISENROLLED

  • A LARGE NUMBER OF CHILDREN FROM

  • ITS MEDICAID PROGRAM.

  • IT'S CLOSE TO 460,000 AS OF THE

  • REPORT FROM JANUARY AND HHS

  • SECRETARIES SENT A LETTER TO

  • FLORIDA AND THE GOVERNORS OF

  • EIGHT OTHER STATES EXPOSING

  • CONCERN ABOUT THAT AND

  • SUGGESTING MEASURE STRATEGIES

  • THESE STATES COULD TAKE TO KEEP

  • THEIR KIDS COVERED.

  • ONE OF THEM RELATES TO JUST

  • ELIMINATING PREMIUMS IN THE CHIP

  • PROGRAM.

  • OTHERS INVOLVED IN PERSUADING

  • STATES TO TAKE UP WITH THE

  • FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CALLS

  • FLEXIBILITIES FOR THIS UNWINDING

  • PROCESS SO FOR INSTANCE,

  • ALLOWING STATES TO JUST

  • DETERMINE A KIDS ELIGIBILITY AND

  • REENROLLED THEM IN THE PROGRAM.

  • THERE IS A LARGE NUMBER OF

  • DISENROLLMENT'S DURING FLORIDA'S

  • MEDICAID UNWINDS THAT ARE DUE TO

  • PROCEDURAL REASONS WHICH IS WHEN

  • PEOPLE DO NOT RESPOND.

  • MEDICAID EXPANSION IS ANOTHER

  • STRATEGY THAT THE SECRETARY

  • CITED IN HIS LETTER TO GOVERNORS

  • AS HELPING TO IMPROVE COVERAGE

  • FOR CHILDREN BECAUSE WHEN

  • PARENTS HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE,

  • IT IS A LOT MORE LIKELY THAT

  • THEIR KIDS WILL ALSO BE INSURED.

  • ALI: THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE

  • VOTED TO RAISE THE FAMILY INCOME

  • LIMIT TO QUALIFY FOR KID CARE

  • WHICH IS BASICALLY THE

  • CHILDREN'S HEALTH INSURANCE

  • PROGRAM IN FLORIDA SO WHAT IS

  • THE STATUS OF THOSE EFFORTS AND

  • HOW MANY CHILDREN WOULD THAT

  • STATE LEGISLATURE ACTION

  • POTENTIALLY PROVIDE COVERAGE TO?

  • >> GOVERNOR DESANTIS DECIDED

  • THAT SHE CITED THAT SHE SIGNED

  • THAT EXPANSION INTO LAW IN JUNE

  • AND IT RAISED THE INCOME

  • ELIGIBILITY LEVEL SO ABOUT

  • ANOTHER 40,000 OR SO CHILDREN

  • WOULD BE NEWLY ELIGIBLE ONCE

  • THAT SHIP EXPANSION TAKES EFFECT

  • BUT IT HAS NOT YET BECAUSE THERE

  • IS A COMPLICATED PROCESS FOR

  • STATES TO DO THIS AND IT

  • INVOLVES HAVING STATE AND

  • FEDERAL PUBLIC COMMENT PERIODS

  • IN FLORIDA HAS NOT DONE THAT AND

  • NOW THEY HAVE TO.

  • THE STATE WANTED TO START THE

  • EXPENDED POPULATION FOR CHIP

  • THIS YEAR.

  • IF THEY DO, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE

  • MUCH LATER IN THE YEAR.

  • RIGHT NOW, THEY JUST STARTED

  • RECENTLY THE PUBLIC COMMENT

  • PERIOD.

  • >> PEOPLE HEARING THIS MIGHT

  • WONDER TO THEMSELVES FLORIDA IS

  • TAKING SOME MEASURES TO EXPAND

  • ELIGIBILITY VIS-A-VIS INCOME BUT

  • CHOOSING OTHER OPTIONS THAT

  • WOULD EFFECTIVELY KEEP OTHER

  • CHILDREN DISENROLLED.

  • >> WHAT FLORIDA IS CLAIMING IS

  • THAT THOSE PREMIUMS HELP FUND

  • THE CHIP PROGRAM AND THEY ARE

  • COUNTING ON IT TO FUND THE

  • COVERAGE FOR THE EXPENDED

  • POPULATION.

  • FLORIDA COLLECTS ABOUT $30

  • MILLION A YEAR IN CHIP PREMIUM

  • PAYMENTS AND THEY ARE ESTIMATING

  • THAT THE FIRST FULL YEAR OF THIS

  • PROGRAM UNDER THE EXPANSION

  • WOULD COST ABOUT $90 MILLION SO

  • THAT REMAINDER WOULD BE PAID

  • BETWEEN THE STATE AND FEDERAL

  • GOVERNMENTS AND YOU KNOW, ABOUT

  • 3000 KIDS IN ANY GIVEN MONTH ARE

  • DISENROLLED FROM CHIP FOR THEIR

  • PARENTS NOT PAYING THE PREMIUM

  • SO PART OF WHAT CMS WANTS TO DO

  • WITH THIS NEW RULE OF CONTINUOUS

  • ELIGIBILITY AND CONTINUOUS

  • COVERAGE IS TO REDUCE WHAT IS

  • CALLED CHURN, KIDS FALLING IN

  • AND OUT OF COVERAGE, HAVING

  • INTERRUPTIONS IN OUR COVERAGE

  • WHICH IS NEVER GOOD.

  • ALI: DANIEL CHANG, THANK YOU SO

  • MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

  • >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

  • JOHN: VACCINES HAVE PROVEN TO BE

  • AN EFFECTIVE WEAPON AGAINST MANY

  • DISEASES.

  • MEASLES, FOR INSTANCE, WAS

  • DECLARED ELIMINATED FROM THE

  • UNITED STATES IN 2000.

  • AND, MORE RECENTLY, VACCINES

  • HAVE HELPED CURB THE SPREAD OF

  • COVID.

  • BUT THIS YEAR, BOTH OF THOSE

  • DISEASES ARE ON THE RISE: THE

  • CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND

  • PREVENTION SAYS THERE'VE ALREADY

  • BEEN 35 CASES OF MEASLES SO FAR

  • THIS YEAR, COMPARED WITH 58 IN

  • ALL OF 2023.

  • NEWSHOUR DIGITAL HEALTH REPORTER

  • LAURA SANTHANAM HAS BEEN LOOKING

  • INTO THIS.

  • LET'S TAKE THE CASE OF MEASLES.

  • THERE HAS BEEN AN EFFECTIVE

  • MEASLES VACCINE FOR DECADES.

  • WHY ARE CASES CLIMBING?

  • LAURA: IT BOILS DOWN TO AN

  • ANSWER AN EPIDEMIOLOGIST GAVE ME

  • RECENTLY WHICH IS A VACCINE IS

  • NOTHING IF IT IS NOT

  • ADMINISTERED AND THAT IS WHAT WE

  • ARE SEEING RIGHT NOW.

  • THE PANDEMIC AND MISINFORMATION

  • HAVE COMBINED TO SORT OF

  • RELEASEE THIS DECLINE IN

  • VACCINES FOR BOTH OF THESE

  • INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

  • THINKING ABOUT JUST SORT OF THAT

  • CHAOS THAT THE PANDEMIC YOU GAVE

  • US, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE

  • WERE NOT GETTING, YOU KNOW,

  • SCHEDULED CHILDHOOD VACCINES FOR

  • THEIR KIDS.

  • PEOPLE WERE AFRAID TO SIT IN

  • WAITING ROOMS AND EXAM ROOMS AND

  • WE SAW THAT AND WE ARE STILL

  • SORT OF WORKING OUR WAY OUT OF

  • THAT.

  • AND THEN THINKING ABOUT THE ROLE

  • THAT MISINFORMATION HAS PLAYED

  • IN SORT OF UNDERMINING PEOPLE'S

  • CONFIDENCE IN THAT WE ARE STILL

  • DEALING WITH THAT MESS.

  • >> SOME VACCINES HAVE BEEN WITH

  • US FOR GENERATIONS BUT LOOKING

  • BACK AT HISTORY, WHEN THEY WERE

  • FIRST INTRODUCED, WAS THERE THE

  • SAME SORT OF MISINFORMATION THEN

  • OR IS THAT A NEW PHENOMENON?

  • >> IT IS KIND OF WILD TO THINK

  • INFECTIOUS DISEASE HAS BEEN

  • SOMETHING HUMANITY HAS BEEN

  • DEALING WITH STUDENTS BEFORE WE

  • WERE ABLE TO RECORD HISTORY AND

  • SOME OF THESE DISEASES, YOU

  • KNOW, WE ARE JUST STARTING TO

  • WRAP OUR ARMS AROUND.

  • TAKE POLIO, FOR EXAMPLE.

  • THE ANCIENT INJECTIONS WERE

  • DEALING WITH POLIO AND IT WASN'T

  • UNTIL THE 1950'S THAT DR. JONAH

  • STARTED TO DEPLOY A VACCINE

  • STARTING IN A SCHOOL IN

  • PITTSBURGH AND THAT CAMPAIGN

  • WENT AROUND THE COUNTRY, AROUND

  • THE GLOBE, AND GENERATIONS

  • LATER, MEDICAL SCHOOL STUDENTS

  • ARE MORE LIKELY TO LEARN ABOUT

  • POLIO IN HISTORY BOOKS THAN THEY

  • ARE IN LENOX HERE IN THE U.S.

  • AND THAT IS BECAUSE OF THAT

  • WORK.

  • IT DID NOT JUST GO AWAY BECAUSE

  • WE WISHED IT AWAY BUT BECAUSE OF

  • THESE VACCINE CAMPAIGNS.

  • >> HOW DID ALL THE

  • DISINFORMATION SPREAD AND THE

  • MISTRUST THAT SPREAD AROUND THE

  • COVID VACCINE, HOW IS THAT

  • AFFECTING OTHER VACCINES?

  • LAURA: WE HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH

  • MISINFORMATION FOR QUITE SOME

  • TIME WHEN IT COMES TO VACCINES.

  • STARTING IN THE LATE 1990'S, YOU

  • KNOW, THINKING ABOUT THE

  • MEASLES, MUMPS, RUBELLA VACCINE.

  • TO THIS DAY, THERE ARE PEOPLE

  • WHO WITHHOLD THAT VACCINE FROM

  • THEIR CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY

  • THINK IT MIGHT CAUSE PROBLEMS

  • THAT JUST EVIDENCE, STUDIES

  • CONDUCTED OVER SO MANY YEARS AND

  • SO MANY COUNTRIES, JUST THEY

  • CONTINUE TO DEBUNK THAT SINCE

  • RETRACTED STUDY BUT THAT HAS

  • LAID THE GROUNDWORK FOR SOME OF

  • THE DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGNS WE

  • ARE SEEING ABOUT THE COVID

  • VACCINE NOW WHETHER IT IS

  • TALKING ABOUT HOW QUICKLY IT WAS

  • DEPLOYED OR WHEN POLITICS ARE

  • GETTING INVOLVED IN SOME OF

  • THOSE CAMPAIGNS, IT MAKES IT A

  • MESS TO DISENTANGLE.

  • AND I TALKED TO CLINICIANS ABOUT

  • THIS, THEY RECOMMEND PEOPLE ASK

  • THEIR DOCTORS IF YOU HAVE

  • QUESTIONS ABOUT THE COVID

  • VACCINE, MEASLES VACCINE, ANY OF

  • THESE VACCINES THAT ARE

  • RECOMMENDED THAT ARE APPROVED

  • INFECTED BY THE CDC, BY THE FDA,

  • YOU KNOW, HAVE THOSE

  • CONVERSATIONS WITH YOUR DOCTORS,

  • BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, EQUALLY

  • IMPORTANTLY, DOCTORS SHOULD BE

  • READY TO HAVE THOSE

  • CONVERSATIONS.

  • I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH A

  • DOCTOR IN SOUTH ALABAMA WHO WAS

  • SAYING, YOU KNOW, PHYSICIANS

  • SHOULD BE WELCOMING THESE

  • CONVERSATIONS.

  • THEY SHOULD BE READY TO ANSWER

  • QUESTIONS AND SHOULD NOT

  • DISCOURAGE PATIENTS FROM HAVING

  • THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

  • AN EXPERT TOLD ME THAT PEOPLE

  • ARE GOING TO MISS INFORMATION

  • FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS BUT SOME

  • OF THAT IS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT

  • ABLE TO GET ANSWERS WHEN THEY

  • NEEDED THEM FROM THEIR HEALTH

  • CARE PROVIDERS IN THE FIRST

  • PLACE SO JUST BE READY TO HAVE

  • THESE CONVERSATIONS AND WELCOME

  • THEM.

  • >> WHAT ARE THE FEARS THAT YOU

  • HAVE HEARD FROM DOCTORS AND

  • PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIALS ABOUT

  • THIS, ABOUT DISEASES THAT WE

  • THOUGHT WE HAD CONQUERED BUT --

  • THAT HAVE BEEN WIPED OUT LIKE

  • MEASLES?

  • >> IN THE U.S., WE HAVE SEEN

  • VACCINATION RATES AMONG

  • KINDERGARTNERS DECLINE TO 93%

  • AND IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE 95%.

  • THAT IS THE RECOMMENDED

  • THRESHOLD TO PREVENT COMMUNITY

  • TRANSMISSION AND A LOT OF

  • SUFFERING AND HARM.

  • TWO PERCENTAGE POINTS MIGHT NOT

  • SOUND LIKE A LOT BUT ACCORDING

  • TO THE CDC, THAT TRANSLATES TO

  • TWO JUNTA 50,000 KIDS WHO ARE

  • LEFT AT HIGHER RISK FOR

  • DEVELOPING MEASLES.

  • THEY COULD BECOME DEATH AS A

  • RESULT, DEVELOP ENCEPHALITIS,

  • AND IN MOST TRAGIC CASES, DIED.

  • PHYSICIAN, PEDIATRICIANS WHO

  • HAVE TALKED TO IN MY REPORTING,

  • THEY ARE VERY CONCERNED THAT WE

  • WILL GIVE IT WILL GIVE AN

  • OPPORTUNITY FOR PREVENTABLE

  • DEATH TO RISE IN THIS COUNTRY.

  • JOHN: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

  • YOU CAN READ MORE OF LAURA'S

  • REPORTING ON THE RISE IN MEASLES

  • CASES IN THE MISINFORMATION

  • AROUND THE MEASLES VACCINE AT

  • PBS.ORG/NEWSHOUR.

  • FOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH, OUR

  • PARTNERS AT STORY CORPS ARE

  • AMPLIFYING BLACK VOICES WITH

  • CONVERSATIONS ABOUT ACTIVISM,

  • LOVE, JOY, AND LEADERSHIP.

  • TONIGHT, THE STORY OF MARY STEPP

  • BURNETTE HAYDEN.

  • SHE WAS BORN INTO SLAVERY ON A

  • PLANTATION IN BLACK MOUNTAIN,

  • NORTH CAROLINA.

  • AFTER SHE WAS FREED IN 1865,

  • WHEN SHE WAS 7, SHE REMAINED

  • THERE, GOING ON TO BECOME A

  • MIDWIFE.

  • AT STORYCORPS, HAYDEN'S

  • GRANDDAUGHTER, MARY OTHELLA

  • BURNETTE, TOLD HER GREAT

  • GRANDDAUGHTER, DEBORA HAMILTON

  • PALMER, ABOUT THEIR FAMILY

  • MATRIARCH.

  • >> SHE PROBABLY WEIGHED NOT MORE

  • THAN 110 POUNDS.

  • SHE WAS ABOUT FOUR FEET 11IN

  • TALL AND HER HAIR HUNG WELL

  • BELOW HER WAIST.

  • SHE HAD DEEP SET EYES AND A

  • FIERCE LOOK, AS IF SHE WERE

  • LOOKING RIGHT THROUGH YOU.

  • WHAT WAS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH

  • HER LIKE WHEN SHE DELIVERED ME?

  • -- >> RELATIONSHIP WITH HER

  • LIKE?

  • >> SHE DELIVERED ME.

  • A FEW MINUTES AFTER IT WAS MINE.

  • BY OPENING MY EYES AND TURNING

  • MY HEAD TO LOOK AROUND THE ROOM

  • AND SHE SAID, GOD, LOOK AT THAT.

  • MY GRANDMOTHER LOVED TO TALK.

  • AND MOST OF OUR STORIES WERE

  • BAD, BUT GRANNY STORIES WERE

  • REAL LIFE STORIES.

  • SHE DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT

  • HANSEL AND GRETEL.

  • HERE WAS THIS WOMAN, A FORMER

  • SLAVE, WALKING AROUND DELIVERING

  • BABIES AND HELPING PEOPLE.

  • YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT BACK

  • WHEN GRANNY STARTED, THERE WERE

  • NO HOSPITALS FOR BLACK PEOPLE TO

  • GO TO, AND POOR PEOPLE HAD NO

  • MONEY TO PAY FOR PROFESSIONAL

  • MEDICAL CARE.

  • SO IF YOU HAD A DISEASE THAT

  • COULD NOT BE TREATED BY A

  • MIDWIFE, YOU DIED AT HOME.

  • HOUSES COULD BE SEVERAL MILES

  • APART, AND BEARS COMMONLY ROAM

  • THE NEIGHBORHOODS.

  • BUT WHAT IF SOMEBODY NEEDED

  • HELP?

  • GRANNY WAS GOING.

  • BLACK AND WHITES ALIKE.

  • IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE TO HER.

  • SHE WAS FEARLESS.

  • YOU KNOW, SHE NEVER BOASTED

  • ABOUT WHAT SHE DID, BUT SHE

  • PROBABLY CAUGHT SEVERAL HUNDRED

  • BABIES, IF NOT MORE.

  • HOW OLD WAS GRANNY HAYDEN WHEN

  • -- >> HOW OLD WAS GRANNY HAYDEN

  • WHEN SHE STOPPED HER PRACTICE?

  • >> SHE WAS ABOUT 90 YEARS OLD.

  • SHE WAS A VERY STRONG LITTLE

  • WOMAN.

  • YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE THINK

  • ABOUT SLAVERY, THEY THINK ABOUT

  • HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO, NOT ABOUT

  • SOMEBODY WHO DIED IN 1956.

  • SHE WAS A PILLAR NOT ONLY IN OUR

  • FAMILY BUT IN OUR COMMUNITY, AND

  • I ASSUMED SHE WOULD ALWAYS BE

  • THERE.

  • LIKE WHEN YOU'RE CHILD.

  • YOU ASSUME EVERYTHING'S GOING TO

  • BE THERE.

  • BUT I'M VERY PROUD TO HAVE

  • DESCENDED FROM SOMEONE LIKE MY

  • GRANDMOTHER.

  • VERY, VERY PROUD.

  • JOHN: AND FINALLY TONIGHT, WHAT

  • COULD BE THE BRIGHTEST KNOWN

  • OBJECT IN THE UNIVERSE,

  • ESTIMATED BY SCIENTISTS TO BE

  • EMITTING LIGHT THAT'S A

  • MIND-BOGGLING 500 TRILLION TIMES

  • MORE INTENSE THAN THE SUN.

  • ACCORDING TO A PAPER PUBLISHED

  • THIS PAST WEEK IN THE JOURNAL

  • "NATURE ASTRONOMY," IT'S A

  • QUASAR PRODUCED BY A MASSIVE AND

  • VORACIOUS BLACK HOLE THAT

  • DEVOURED THE EQUIVALENT OF ONE

  • OF EARTH'S SUNS EVERY DAY - A

  • COSMIC STAR DESTROYER.

  • QUASARS ARE WHIRLPOOLS OF MATTER

  • BEING SUCKED INTO BLACK HOLES -

  • SWIRLING LIKE WATER CIRCLING A

  • DRAIN.

  • THE LIGHT IS THE RESULT OF THE

  • GLOWING HEAT CREATED BY THE

  • FRICTION OF ALL THAT MATTER

  • RUBBING TOGETHER.

  • THE BLACK HOLE AT THE CENTER OF

  • THIS QUASAR IS MORE THAN 17

  • BILLION TIMES MORE MASSIVE THAN

  • OUR SUN - WHICH ITSELF ACCOUNTS

  • FOR 99.8 PERCENT OF ALL OUR

  • SOLAR SYSTEM'S MASS.

  • CHRISTIAN WOLF OF THE AUSTRALIAN

  • NATIONAL UNIVERSITY AND THE

  • STUDY'S LEAD AUTHOR, SAYS IT'S

  • THE MOST VIOLENT PLACE IN THE

  • KNOWN UNIVERSE.

  • AND IT'S SO FAR, FAR AWAY, THAT

  • THE LIGHT SCIENTISTS ARE

  • STUDYING NOW TOOK 12 BILLION

  • YEARS TO REACH EARTH, AND THE

  • BLACK HOLE STOPPED GROWING A

  • LONG TIME AGO.

  • AND THAT IS PBS NEWS WEEKEND FOR

  • THIS SUNDAY.

  • I'M JOHN YANG.
