>> The risk to the American people remains very low.
People die from the flu. We have it so well under
control. I mean, view this the same as the flu. >> This is insurrectionist President Donald Trump.
>> And a lot of good things have come out about the hydroxy, a lot of good things have come out.
>> Downplaying COVID and promoting anything other than the vaccine.
>> The CDC reports that the Delta variant now accounts for 93%
of all COVID cases in the country >> In some states, thousands of people,
nobody young, below the age of 18, like nobody. >> At Children's Hospital in New Orleans,
Dr. Mark Klein says patients under 17 years old make up one in five new cases.
>> They have a strong immune system, who knows? You look at you, take your hat off to the young
because they have a hell of an immune system. >> 16-year-old Riley Broox did qualify.
>> There's my girl. >> But her family held off.
She's now spent the last three days on oxygen.
>> That is the absolute scary part, is how fast it happens.
>> It affects virtually nobody. It's an amazing thing.
>> Youth COVID cases are on the rise. The American Academy of Pediatrics reporting more
than 70,000 new infections just last week. >> I wanted to always play it down.
>> 90% of those hospitalized patients are unvaccinated.
>> We're just exploding, we're bursting at the seams.
>> 75-year-old Curtis Cannon is one of them. >> I tell them they need to get vaccinated,
because this isn't fun. >> Which brings us to one of
the PGA's top golfers, American Bryson DeChambeau.
The 27-year-old has been dubbed the mad scientist of golf. He has given quotes,
time and time again that shows his affinity for the subject, he's worked with a dietitian
to measure his chew rate. He wants to live to 130 or 140 and believes
he could do it with the help of technological advances.
Even with him being sharp, DeChambeau was forced to withdraw
from the Olympics because he tested positive for the coronavirus. COVID has taken more than 615,000
American lives. Yet Bryson, a player whose focus is science, obviously did his part, right?
Well, see for yourself. I'm young enough, I'd rather give the vaccine to people who need it.
I don't need it, I'm a healthy, young individual that will continue to work on my health. How
should we feel about this? I'll let Brooks Koepka, emulate my feelings for starters. I don't think
taking the vaccine away from someone who needs it is a good thing. My dad is a perfect example.
He got it early on because he's a diabetic. My mom got it, I don't want to take away that ability.
There is no vaccine shortage in the US, Arkansas throw 80,000 doses over the weekend because people
didn't want them. We have shipped 110 million doses to other countries, wrote Geoff Calkins.
For the record, DeChambeau appears to have a cozy relationship with the Trumps. He celebrated his US
Open win with Trust Fund racist Eric. He's golfed many times with the white supremacists, including
a round with ex-MAGA Senator David Perdue. Bryson called it quote, a day I will never forget.
>> What's up Trump golf family, hope all's well. >> And yes, that's DeChambeau doing videos
for the Trump organization. He even had Trump's
logo on his bag till the PGA drew a line in the sand saying hey, that insurrection
you lead with your supporters on January the 6th, we don't want any affiliation with you.
DeChambeau declined comment. It was bound to happen, DeChambeau said of contracting COVID.
I tried to take all the necessary precautions to not contract it. And unfortunately on Friday,
July 23rd, I tested positive, you can't do anything about it. Actually, Bryson, there is
this thing we can do. It involves science and is fairly harmless, it's called getting vaccinated.
Now, as time goes on, if the vaccine is mainstream, really,
really mainstream, then yeah, DeChambeau said, really, really mainstream? Nearly 350 million
vaccinations have been administered in this country. More than 165 million Americans have
been fully vaccinated. Only 161 million people voted in the most recent presidential election.
Only 95 million people watched the Super Bowl. We're averaging 90,000 cases of COVID a
day in this country, the past seven days. There are 50,000 people in the hospital,
the highest number since January. More than 600 people have died in each of the past two days.
Two kids died at a local children's hospital last weekend.
And the reason, the only reason is that too many people are declining
to be vaccinated. They account for the vast majority of cases,
hospitalizations, and deaths. According to a recent report from the Kaiser Family Foundation,
they account for more than 94% of reported COVID-19 cases in states with available data.
It's pretty simple, get vaccinated.
