We're grateful to have you watching this Wednesday Theme U.

S Centers for Disease Control says nine million people in America have gotten a first shot of coronavirus vaccine.

They're two different vaccines that have been approved for emergency use in the U.

And regardless of whether people get the one made by Pfizer and by on tech or the one made by Moderna, health officials say two doses air needed to maximize the drug's effectiveness.

Manufacturing hasn't been as fast as some experts expected, and states have reported problems distributing the vaccines through hospitals and doctors offices because some of these places say they don't have enough workers to both care for their patients and service vaccination clinics.

S government is changing some of its guidelines.

It wants more pharmacies to be able to give vaccines.

It's planning to help states set up mass vaccination sites if they ask for government assistance.

It's going to allow anyone over age 65 to get the vaccine immediately where it's available, and both the Trump Administration and the incoming Biden administration want to release all available doses immediately.

Instead of holding half of them back to ensure that people who've already gotten the first dose will be able to get the second on time.

The benefit is that this will make MAWR vaccines available in the short term.

The drawback is that it risks people not being able to get their second dose when health officials say they should have it.

There have been some side effects, including several cases of dangerous allergic reactions associated with the vaccine, and several polls have indicated that at least 40% of Americans do not plan to get vaccinated against Cove in 19.

I'm Nick what in Los Angeles, where this week we will see a major symbolic shift in the fight against this pandemic.

Dodger Stadium, which has beena testing site for the past eight months or so, will transition.

The governor in California and set himself a target.

The rollout of the cove in 19 vaccine continues to be rocky in some states.

CNN affiliate wjxt, reporting long lines of seniors bundled up before dawn to get the shot in Jacksonville.

These air people 65 over in frontline healthcare workers who showed up not with an appointment but based on birth month Now to Texas, where hundreds received the vaccine at the Alamodome in San Antonio, according to affiliate K A B B w o a.

The process was mostly smooth, except for a few people who said that they registered and were turned away.

The FBI says it's working to identify and stop people who may be planning violence, according to an internal FBI bulletin obtained by the media.

Armed protests are being planned at all 50 state capitals.

They're expected to start this weekend and continue through Inauguration Day on the 20th.

The FBI has also identified threats to several government leaders.

President Donald Trump has approved an emergency declaration for Washington, D.

That was requested by the city's mayor that'll bring additional government security to the inauguration of President elect Joe Biden.

It's been a week since a riot broke out at the US Capitol building as lawmakers were meeting to formally certify electoral votes from the November 3rd election.

Some of the people in attendance of a massive rally in support of President Trump later marched to the Capitol and broke in, forcing a lock down in the evacuation of government officials.

Five people died in the violence, including one Capitol police officer.

S social media organizations have been clamping down on the president and some of his supporters, who have repeated claims that the election was fraudulent, even though courts have ruled there's not evidence of this to overturn any election results.

Facebook and Twitter have banned President Trump from using their services altogether.

So his Instagram Snapchat and Twitch, another app named Parlor, which calls itself unbiased social media and is popular with conservatives, has been banned by Apple, Google and Amazon.

That's pretty much taken parlor off the Internet.

The big technology companies say online statements by the president and some of his supporters could encourage more violent events like last week's riot.

But a diverse group of critics says these companies are censoring political viewpoints that they don't agree with and that it shows that apple, Facebook, Google and Amazon have too much power over speech.

Parlor is suing Amazon for removing the APP from its cloud services.

Which of these trade shows was first held in 1967.

New York Toy Fair, South by Southwest or Consumer electronic show.

New York City was the site of the first consumer electronics show in 1967.

It's usual home these days is in Las Vegas, Nevada, but not this year to show that helped introduce digital technology to the world is being held digitally in 2021 because of concerns about the coronavirus pandemic.

And it makes sense that many of the products being promoted are those that able to help people keep connected virtually.

Imagine what all this would have looked like to the people who attended Si ES in 1989.

You can always find great new toys at the Consumer Electronics Show.

Improved electronic still cameras, for example.

Portable CD players of varying degrees of portability.

Ah, hi tech Teddy bear somewhat more aggressive than Teddy Ruxpin that serves as a car alarm.

Earthshaking new ideas were in short supply, though, is the retail buyers for the electron ICS industry were shown mostly variations on existing equipment.

Yes, yes, might be called a show of embellishments.

Really, new developments won't be available at retail for a few years.

HDTV The wider, brighter, clearer television system was on display, but a consumer version will have to wait until the nineties.

Home Automation The remote control fanatics dream is now on the horizon now that most manufacturers have agreed to a single standard.

Last year's headline grabber, the digital audio tape player was hard to find.

This year, D 80 has been blocked by the record industry because they're afraid it's the perfect weapon for copyright pirates.

Sony, one of the eighties biggest backers, is still hopeful.

There's another meeting schedule in the next two months.

A recordable compact disc, expected in a year or two will kill it.

Another battle has come to an end, though.

Jack Valenti, president of the Motion Picture Association, fought to keep the VCR out of America in the early days of the video age.

He came to Vegas to celebrate the armistice VCR really is barren of all value until you you illuminated, uh, with a good movie.

So I think we we do have, ah, joint interest in the future.

The future seemed brightest, though, with a Nintendo booth where the video game system celebrated two years in a row as the top Christmas present.

New games and new accessories air coming online, the action pad and the hands off you force controller promised to keep the video claim in flight with or without earthshaking new developments.

Hundreds of millions of dollars changed hands of the Consumer Electronics show, where the course of home entertainment is plotted for the next six months.

Denis Michael, CNN Entertainment News Las Vegas Oh, the 0 202 m is 662.73 ft.

The reason we bring that up is because this guy swam it.

That's like four laps in an Olympic pool.

But hold your breath, y'all, because he did it without one stick.

Severinsen recently earned the Guinness world distance record for swimming with fins on just one breath.

He's been known to not breathe for more than 20 minutes at a time.

So this was all part of an effort that would leave anyone else breathless.

It must take an entirely new breathe of athlete toe.

Hold out long enough to leave others gasping for air for what must seem like an oxygen oration.

I'd rather hold my breath even if I'm just full of hot air up Carlos, there's for CNN.

Lacks Virginia today to give a shout out to our friends at Gay.
