good morning, america, i'm robin roberts. >> i'm george stephanopoulos, it's tuesday, february 1 and this morning, blizzard blowout. snow and ice take aim at the more than a third of the country from new england all of the way to new mexico. some cities brace for the worst storm in 40 years. breaking right now, the largest demonstrations yet. egyptians pour into the streets, demand president mubarak steps down as his grip loosens. we're on the ground at the heart of a revolution. the challengers can anything stop mitt romney from taking on president obama. we ask him as he weighs in on the crisis in egypt, health care and the race for the white house. and shark invasion, have you ever seen so many? why thousands of sharks are lurking just off a florida

beach. good morning, for so many of you watching right now time to get ready for the big one. robin, seems like every single week, we're waiting for a new storm, and this is the worst one yet. >> just getting started and it's a real messy mix, snow and ice expected to cover more than 2,100 miles from the northeast to southeast with indianapolis expecting the worst of the ice, an inch or more. the nation's ice zone, it's as if the state of texas turned into a skating rink. it's so massive. it's close to that size and winter storm warnings for new york city, boston, with predictions the ice is worst than first expected. >> it's gotten so bad that the federal emergency management association is helping states deal with the impact and federal government dealing with that other major story this morning, the demonstrations in egypt. look at these live pictures of liberation square in cairo, more than 100,000 have gathered. the army said it will not

intervene, will not take on the protesters. troops are standing by peacefully at that hour and that announcement is increasing pressure on president mubarak to step aside. some opposition groups saying they won't negotiate until he steps aside. our team is on the scene, and we'll get to them in just a moment. >> but first our team covering the mass of storms in the mid west. sam champion in chicago this morning. good morning, sam. >> good morning, robin. good morning, george. as you said this is the biggest winter storm so far. we've got 2100 miles covered by this pattern of storms. we've seen 28 degree temperature drop in dallas, texas. ice and snow there. big snow going on in tulsa, and oklahoma city. let's show you where the ice something falling. this is about 1500 mile path.

the ice could be the worst part this snow system. once you're in ice, it's almost impossible to get out of it. and the snow in this system will be measured in feet. chicago, possibly two feet. from blinding snow to bitter cold, this winter storm is already blasting snow and ice all across the midwest and now it's headed east. in its wake, mangled cars from dozens of weather-related accidents. in kansas city a bus full of students flipped over on this icy, narrow lane. in loveland, colorado, emergency crews responded after several cars lost control and tumbled off the highway. winter watches and warnings from new mexico to maine with blizzard warnings in at least nine states. take a look at this time lapse video from the storm spotters from oklahoma city to kansas city to chicago, expecting one to two feet of snow, chicago could receive its biggest snowfall in 40 years. this system could create potentially deadly conditions. fema has already dispatched teams with emergency supplies to

six cities across the midwest. >> we know it's going to be bad, prepare like it's bad. >> where there isn't snow, there is accumulating ice. on sidewalks, roads and power lines, possibly an inch of ice expected in some places. >> i'm barbara pinto in indianapolis, you see the trouble under foot and above. thick coats of ice on everything. >> in denver temperatures may not get above zero today the first time that's happened in 15 years. clayton sandell is there. >> reporter: we poured water and as you can see, it's frozen solid after only 15 minutes. the real problem is water in your skin. that, too, can freeze if it's exposed, and with windchills here in denver 30 degrees below zero, frostbite kicks in only one minute. >> and while the rest of the country wait force those conditions to appear, some have been in those conditions all

night long like m our ryan owens in new york city. good morning, ryan. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. i'm 800 miles to the west and south of you. here in oklahoma city they're predicting a foot of snow. there's also easily 6 inches or so on the ground and the bigger news is really the wind. it has been howling, gusting at more than 50 miles an hour at some point this morning, so that is causing a windchill well below zero. >> the schools shut down here, so are most businesses. the governor has declared a state of emergency in all of oklahoma's 77 counties. and here's the problem. whatever does fall today, will not be going anywhere for a while. that's because this state is supposed to see the coldest temperatures it's seen in 15 years. george. >> it has really whipping, ryan. thanks very much. as we said, federal emergency officials taying this storm very seriously, trying to get ahead

with t. and bianna golodryga is here with how big the impact will be. >> this is a colossal storm, affecting the vast majority of the country. particular concern are power outages from texas to new hampshire now just on the ground. here is what is happens, these are plane real time flying across the country. 3500 flights cons canceled today. 2 200 canceled tomorrow. take a look what that's costing the city. 20 million in new jersey, 38 million through the budget for snow cleanup in new york city, and, george, i'm not just reporting on this storm, i'm going to live it. i'm going to the airport after this. what are the odds you think i'll be getting out. if you need a until reporter at laguardia tomorrow, call me.

>> that's a pretty safe bet. >> bring sweat pants just in case. >> tips on how to prepare for this protect yourself from the storm at abc news news/gma. we'll move on to the other big story, of course, what's going on in egypt right now with tens of thousands of protesters are there at the biggest demonstrations we've seen as yet. christiane amanpour is there in cairo for us, we'll talk to her in just a moment. lama hasan is in the middle of it all. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, yes, you're right. forgive me if you can't hear me because of the loud chants and music coming from the square. we're just overlooking the biggest demonstrations we've seen so far. look, men, women, young and old, all united by one message. they're all saying they want president mubarak to step down. and hearing all kinds of chants from mubarak you must leave to

mubarak, you are a coward and collaborating with americans, and finally, mubarak, you leave, we're not going to leave, alluding to the fact they'll stay in the square for however it takes until their demands are met. we're expecting this protest to get bigger, people are still pouring into the square and this protest so far has been a peaceful one. >> thank you very much, stay safe there. we saw the tens of thousands of people streaming there and the biggest protests we've seen since the demonstrations began a year ago. christiane amanpour, we're starting to see concession by president mubarak, army standing by, as the protesters allowed to continue. the big question is, is this enough for mubarak to save his position? >> reporter: that is the big question, everybody is waiting to see whether that will be the case. these huge protests are sending a very long and strong and sustained message. at the same time, president mubarak yesterday authorized his vice president to open immediate

dialogue with the opposition but the response from the opposition today is yes they want a national conversation said mohammed elbaradei and the muslim brotherhood but no, they would not start a conversation with the government until president mubarak leaves. these demands look like they're getting harder and harder by the opposition. now, we also are seeing from our vantage point just behind me you see a highway, a bridge that turned into a parking lot as more and more people have to abandon their cars to go into the central tahrir or liberation square. on the bridge behind that is absolutely full of people walking in. and in the meantime, of course, this is being watched by the u.s. administration and special envoy, former ambassador to egypt and other strategic places over the last 24 hours, talking to president mubarak. robin? >> yes, because you talk about that connection, christiane, and the u.s. has been able to work somewhat with mubarak over these many years, these many decades and the question would be, the

successor, if there is a successor, that relationship, what that relationship would be with the u.s. >> reporter: this is what is troubling the u.s., countries in the region and israel, they don't know what will happen in a post-mubarak situation. now, many people who we've talked to here and have actually waved flags at us and signs at us saying we're friends with the united states, we are friends with israel. they're mindful that egypt is one of the only two countries in arab world which has signed a peace treaty with egypt, with israel, rather, and many people told us they have no expectation of their alliances being overthrown but still people are suspicious, they don't know in the absence of a strong and unified opposition leader, what the future will hold. again and again people tell us what we want is what you have, freedom, democracy, and the opportunity for a better life. >> i have to tell you, watching the protesters from this distance and having seen other

protests in the arab world, it does appear to be different. is that fair to say? >> reporter: it is fair to say, because we've seen over the years protests erupting in various capitals for various reasons where the political or economic, and this one obviously started a week ago with some violence because the police were on the streets, mr. were battle, people were injured and killed. on friday police were pulled back and military deployed. so, this is entirely peaceful and has been since the late hours of friday. and if this sparks a change, whether it's revolution or an evolution of the political system, and if it stays like this and the army keeps to its word and does not use force against the people, it will mean an extraordinary and unprecedented move. that would be political change in an entirely peaceful way in the arab world. robin? >> we'll see what happens we'll

check back with you later in the morning. thank you so very much. let's go over now to george. let's get more on how the president is handling the situation from jake tapper at the white house. jake, we just heard christiane say the president sent former ambassador to egypt there for talks with the government and op figures. is that a sign that the administration's moving toward a more explicit call for mubarak to step aside? >> reporter: well, they have not yet made that call but tone has certainly shifted from last week when protesters call ford reforms and president mubarak described the process of reshuffling his cabinet, the white house feels that mubarak lost an opportunity there to get ahead of the protest. you hear the protesters calling for mubarak to step down, so they did send frank wisner. on sunday, wisner, they're not commenting on what the message is, other than for mubarak and

the government to initiate political reforms. if the white house were to send someone to deliver a tough message to mubarak, wisner would be the one to do it, he was ambassador to egypt during the golden age of relations between the u.s. and egypt, in the '80s and early bush, senior, administration, he would be the one to deliver a tough message. >> he's one tough man. thank you. and for more on this, we turn to one of the men looking to replace president obama, former massachusetts governor mitt romney came in second to john mccain for the republican nomination in 2008. he's the next guest in our series "vote 2012, the challengers" and written a best-seller "no apology, believe in america" out in paperbook. thanks for coming in this morning. >> thanks, george, good to be with you. >> if were you in the oval office now would you tell president mubarak go? >> we have to make it clear to the people in egypt that we stand for the voice of democracy and freedom and we have to communicate as the administration has we would like to see a transition to a permanent democracy, not just a

one-time, one-vote and extremists take over. instead of permanent democracy with the rule of law, with the support for the allies that existed in the past and that kind of transition i think would be best undertaken if president mubarak would step out of the way or lead the transition. i don't know i would say to the president you should call for mubarak's resignation. that, i think flies in the face of a long history of the friendship between he and our country and our friends. but it's very clear that he needs to move on and to transition to the voices of democrat congratulations. >> sounds like you have no quarrel with how the administration is handling this so far. >> i think they got off to a rocky start. i think some of the early statements were misguided. they want to see transition, and i think that's right. and you'll see mr. wisner and others will say there is a transition that you or mr. mubarak leads to voice of democracy on a street.

we are a nation who demands freedom, free enterprise, democracy, right course for egypt. >> let's turn now to health care, a major court ruling, federal judge down in florida targeted individual mandates that the president obama health care reform is unconstitutional and in doing that, he wrote this, he said "it is difficult to imagine that a nation which began as result of opposition to a british mandate giving the east india company a monopoly and imposing a nominal tax on all tea sales in america would create a government with power to force people to buy tea in the first place." do you agree with with that? >> i do. i think it is a very bad piece of legislation. i think the president should have been more attune to what we did in our own state. which is that we allowed each state to create a solution to the issue of the uninsured in the way states thought best, that's the what the constitution intend. we're a federalist system, we don't need the federal government imposing a one size fits all plan on the nation. >> he was talking about requirement that people buy health insurance, you had that

same requirement in massachusetts. why is it right for a state to impose that kind of a mandate and not the federal government? >> states have rights. the federal government doesn't have. under the 10th amendment of the constitution, the powers of the federal government are specifically limited. states have right to mandate kids going to school, auto insurance, states have rights they can exercise, try different things in different states. find out what works and what doesn't. the last thing you want to see is the federal government usurping the power of states. this is a federalist nation. by the way, it's also bad policy. what works in one state is not going to work somewhere else. i'll be the first to tell you as well, our plan isn't working perfectly. there are a number of things i would do differently the second time around and right thing for the president to do now with these decisions saying his bill is unconstitutional with the house taking action to repeal it, with the senate considering doing so, he should press the pause button and say let's hold back on this obamacare.

>> i'm interested in the distinction you're drawing on, but it's not going far enough for many republicans, as you know, even karl rove, president bush's former adviser, number one challenge to you getting nomination in the republican party is your support for individual mandate. you have to find some way to work around it but you're sticking by the title of your book, no apology. you won't apologize for the individual mandate? >> i would indicate differently, i point that out. >> is that one of them? >> i won't apologize for rights of state to craft plans in bey partisan basis they think will help their people. >> but i can tell you this, which is the politics of it are something i'm not going to give a lot of worry to. i'll focus on the things i believe. >> are you apologizing for imposing that requirement that people buy health insurance. >> of course not. i'm not apologizing for it. i'm indicating that we, in one direction, and there are other possible directions. i like to see states pursue their own ideas, see which ideas work best. that was the whole idea of our federal democracy, have people

able to try different ideas state to state but what we did not do was say that the federal government could make its choice and impose that on all of the states. that's one reason why this bill is unconstitutional. >> you're leading the republican pack in fund-raising, is there anything that can stop you from take on president obama? >> well, i haven't made a decision yet as to what we'll do. that decision will be made down the road. but i can tell that you i'm very drawn to the fact that this country needs someone who has private sector experience because this economy is troubled. we've got a president who says a lot of the right things but doesn't know how to get the job done. almost everything he has done in his first two years has made it more difficult for our economy to grow. it's been the most anti-investment, anti-job, anti-growth administration we've seen in a long time. i'm inclined to make sure there is somebody in the race who understands how the economy work, and can get jobs back.

>> i notice once change from the last campaign already. you're not wearing a tie. >> i'm not a candidate, i'm just having fun. >> what else did you learn from the last run? what mistake won't you make the second time around if you run? >> i'm sure i'll avoid some mistakes last time but i'll make new ones this time. probably first and foremost is to make sure your message gets through. that you don't get diverted by all of the daily events and speak on every possible topic but focus on what you care about. in my case, getting america working again, getting our economy strong so we can protect ourselves globally, provide freedom for our service and our friends and our kids. >> governor romney thank you, hope you come back when you're an official candidate. you can read a chapter from his book on abcnews.com/gma. let's go back to sam with the rest of the weather in chicago. >> hey, george.

chest. police went to the home in this upscale gated community and found her alone on the back porch. >> she was wearing a robe and there was blood on the robe. first they found the 16-year-old daughter upstairs in bedroom with gunshot wounds to head and 13-year-old son was in the front seat of the family suv. >> reporter: she told them they killed them because she was tired of their back talk. inside police found handwritten notes outlining the crime, written before and then updated after the shooting. >> it's hard to believe a mother authored the notes because it's a very methodical, nonemotional description of the murder of two innocent children. of her own children. >> reporter: so, what went wrong? in november, police visited the house after a school counselor was told her mother hit her, insurance including an incident where she backhanded her daughter in the face three

times. they closed case after concluding the teen had no signs of physical injury. that same month, schenecker got into a severe car accident. police report indicated she showed signs of drug impairment and mush-mouthed speech. we also spoke to this woman, who met color in schenecker and the children at an al-anon meeting for families struggle with addiction. she asked us not to show her face. >> i don't think anybody knew what they were doing, i think it was hidden. >> reporter: she said daughter spoke first. >> as soon as she tried to speak, she was bawling, no other words but "my mom." >> reporter: that's when color in schenecker took over. >> he didn't cry, didn't sound depressed, sounded like he was there to tell a story. >> reporter: what was that story? >> his wife had a drug and alcohol problem and they were there to talk by the and cope with it. >> reporter: and as you know, colonel schenecker was on assignment in the middle east at the time of the murders.

he is now back here in tampa and last night he released a statement saying that he is devoted to the lives and memory of his children. police tell us they do not expect him to support his wife. robin? >> can only imagine what he's going through right now. thank you. this is an unusual case for many reasons, joining us to talk about it is dr. michael wellner, a top forensic psychiatrist. good to have you in. we say unusual, not unusual for a mother to have drug and alcohol problems, we do see that but to go this far and to allegedly kill her children like this. of course, you have to think there is something much more there, mental issue here. >> best way to understand a case where a mother kills her children is to look in three directions. the relationship with the children, the relationship with the husband, and the relationship with the self. there could be psychiatric issues, there could be medical issues that contribute to suicidal thinking that contribute to how she relates to

the children and there could be drug and alcohol issues. those who have gone through addiction and dependence as family members and even in themselves, experience a dead deadening in how they relate to others and how they relate to themselves. there is a deadened quality, a banality of how she approached her relationship with her children. we don't know enough to say how drugs and alcohol or even psychiatric illness contributing. we look in three directions at this point. >> is there a trigger point? it seems from what we've been told, the son was in the car going to soccer practice, the daughter was sitting at her computer doing her homework zplf when a parent kills the children there is always a trigger point, in my professional experience. it's ironic, when we talk about mass shooting, i tell you there is not a trigger point. these kinds of cases there is. however, one thing we need to know is that this is not a case that is going to resemble the happy pictures you'll see.

in my professional experience in working in cases both where mothers kill their children and fathers kill children, there has been a progressive alienation that's gone on for some time. by the time the mother kills the children, there is a lot more distance there than you saw in the happy pictures of days gone by. >> very detached at that point in how -- >> that's right. it may be self-serving. the mother may detach because she may have suicidal thinking or there may be conflict, so both feed into each other at the same time. but that alienation is well in play by the time this -- it gets to a homicidal point. >> looks like premeditation here, talking about she got the gun. >> she wrote notes. >> wrote the notes. so, you think that if somebody is unstable they're not quite thinking in that regard? >> it tells you that intoxication is off the table. it tells you that a conflict over privileges that just es ka laid out of control, i want the car, you can't have the car, i want to go out, you can't. i want to date him, you can't.

those kind of things are describes in intrafamily homicide but when you see a note and a gun, that's not the case. >> but she could have 'delusion. don't know that. we don't noer medical state. she could be someone who was alien ated from the children or may be something in the dynamic with her husband. there are a couple of possibilities and it's important not to leap. >> talk a little bit more possibly with her husband. he was overseas, he's back now, giving indications he's not going to support his wife. he's there for the memory of his children. >> yeah. well, couple of things to keep in mind. first of all, in my professional experience and i consulted the prosecution in the and rhea yates case, rusty yates, most people don't remember this, when rusty yates came home and discovered his children were murdered, he yelled and screamed at his wife, how could you kill my children and she ignored him. he went to the jail. she blew him off.

she said, have a nice life. what happened? the media descended on the family, looked at him and said how could you leave your children alone with her? under that pressure, in my professional experience, sometimes oftentimes the husband will turn around and blame the sipsychiatrist or the communityr someone else because otherwise it draws scrutiny to him. this is not to take anything away from the husband because he was going to an al-anon meeting, involved in family support, but he wasn't there and those questions are painful, especially because he's asking them himself. i will say this, in closing, the sad experience i have as a professi professional, for desperate mother and parents, killing children is actually an option. that's unacceptable. that's the unacceptable message from the and rhea yates case. nobody speaks for the children, noah, luke, paul, mary, john,

those are the yates children. people don't remember them. and someone has to speak for the children because otherwise you have someone doing her homework and zbhets shot in the face. someone coming back to soccer practice who gets killed because the mother doesn't work at the issues. >> never an option. never. michael, thank you very much. we appreciate it. for other stories developing, let's go to juju cha chang. good morning. >> good morning. global financial markets are closely watching the massive pro nests ee jupt. one big concern, oil and whether tankers through the suez canal will be affected by the turmoil. oil prices are already at the highest level since 2008 and analysts fear gas prices here in the u.s. could rise by up to 20% as early as next month. new evidence of the impact the housing crisis is having on millions of families. new figures show only 66% of americans now own their homes, lowest rate since 1988. mortgage industry meltdown and foreclosures have wiped out more

across the country watching this big storm system move. here is how it does move across the country. early in the morning, dropping temperatures in dallas, changing everything into snow, firing up some storms in houston, white-out conditions in oklahoma city near tulsa and watch snow pick up from kansas city into chicagoland and then that low will travel through, look how many watches and warnings this morning. west coast, mild, one or two degrees below normal. dry, very nice thing. severe storms move east from houston to new orleans and louisiana in general during the day today. wouldn't be surprised to see some in alabama kick up as well. ice may be the biggest issue, stay with your local abc stations.

and all that weather was brought to you by jared, the galleria of jewelry. >> we'll wrap up those wings get them to you. >> please do. "dancing with the stars" co-ost brooke burke may look like she's gliding through life, may look that way but we know juggling career and family is not as easy as it looks, busy mother of four children is revealing how she does it in her first book, called "the naked mom." and brooke is here with her insights from health and fitness to love and romance with a multitasking woman. >> great to see you. >> nice to see you, too. last time we were together was derek and i dancing after our win. too long ago. >> can't let that much time pass again. but you have been doing a lot in the meantime. i know you have -- >> very busy. >> i thought the book was here. no, flowers here. >> i'm excited. it's been an amazing year writing this book.

i have to say it's very vulnerable, very honest, a bit scary. i'm kicking off the tour with you guys, going all over the country this week. i almost named the book "dancing through chaos" because it's about maneuvering through life and finding my own rhythm and trying to gracefully manage the chaos and i think most mothers are going to relate to it. it's a book for everyone. it's for moms, even for dads. >> i found it much more humorous than i thought. >> i hope so. >> great, great bits in there. you did decide to go this route, and you say you are baring all, you're just the bare truth because you were quite candid. >> thank you, "the naked mom" is about motherhood revealed and parts of me no one has seen before. when i committed to book, that's how i feel about modern mom and yi blog, either i'll do it truthfully and tell all or not at all. that's what people can relate to. i'm one of those mothers i'm not ashamed to share my challenges and difficult moments and the things i did right and things i'm learning. raising a blended family, not

easy. i learn every day from my children. i never do it perfectly. i was in conversations to write a book about balance for a period of time. i was like balance, what's that? >> we're always searching for that, talking about balance. you have the help and the health and beauty and all that, doesn't matter. it helps -- >> i think it's too much pressure. i hope that women can read this book and realize they have to take it day by day, always going be somebody doing better than you're doing and about finding humorous moments in the most stressful moments of your life, doing the best you can, not losing your sense of self, finds moments of me time. it's funny, when i worked with florence henderson on "dancing with the stars" she really changed my point of view because i always thought raising a blended family, i have four kids, david, i'm last on the totem pole, she said, don't be last, you have to be first. i laughed with her, i said how old were you when you figured that out? it's true, you become a mom, you lose your sense of self.

very dangerous. >> you admitted that what's you did in the first marriage. something else that you said in the book, we've had this discussion with tiger moms, had this ongoing, the mommy wars, it's a battle, everyone has their point of view and their side. you wrote something that many mothers will not admit and that was how sometimes you feel about your children. >> yes. >> just explain. >> yeah. >> share that with us. >> one of those scary naked truths i call them in the book and i revealed that i don't always like my children. and taken out of context, that was actually on the back flap copy for a bit, i thought that could be misinterpreted, i don't think most people are strong enough to understand that. i love my children madly and deeply but there are different things i prefer with different children. i have a tween, she has her moments. a 4-year-old that is full of light and love and energy and my son is bad to the bone sometimes and my 8-year-old has her issues

but i love them all madly but i think as a mother you love your children differently and go through phases and it's about communicating and listening to them and figuring out what works with each child. what i do successfully with one absolutely fails with the other one. and you know, those are moments where it's not supposed to be blissful or perfect every day. that's what the book is about. it's about taking it day by day, being best that you can be. >> you -- i could hear you talk about this on and on, something we discuss a lot on this program, everybody tries do the best they can. >> a lot of pressure. >> you write and this is what was shocking for me, like you said last time you were here you were with derek and smiling and dancing, happy couple and i read that you all had some really tough times and even had to go to counseling, you and derek? >> we had our ups and downs and there is never enough time on live television to get through that. the good news is, i learned so much about that experience.

so many life lessons. the couples on "dancing with the stars" are forced into almost a pre-arranged marriage and each other's arms for three months. you don't know the person, you have to trust them. the naked truth in the book about what i learned from "dancing with the stars" and it's about being flexible, learning to trust a partner, being brave. i talk a lot about doing something that scares you every day, taking chances, finding your confidence. just persevering, derek and i had to learn how to really listen to each other and face our fear, figure it out, find our rhythm. great life lessons for any couple. went to counseling to figure how to tune in and really hear each other and treat each other with compassion. once we did that, then we were like in it to win it. we would show up to work and say how are you, with honesty i would say didn't sleep all night. i'm exhausted. i'm frazzled but i'm here. i'm totally committed, from that place we could really work together as a team. it worked out. >> we're going --

going to miss him next year. >> i'm going to miss him so much. >> so many life lessons you are sharing with us now and sharing in your book, thank you very much. thank you. i know people are going to really get a lot out of this. >> i think it's important. it's really about community healing. that's why i blog and i write. from woman to woman, so much to share and learn. i hope that everyone enjoys it. >> continued success. tell tom bergeron we said hey. >> i will. >> check out a copy of her book "naked mom "on abcnews.com/gma. three things you need to know to keep your children healthy. ♪ me and you m m m m m

number of years, that horable one that hits college campuses. 11-year-olds have been getting the vaccines but new recommendation is a booster before age 16 before your off to college or before they hit adulthood if you want them to be fully protected. very important one to get. >> recent weeks we read about this increase in whooping cough, especially in california, we have a vaccine for that. >> that's right. one of the reasons we're seeing an increase, as we get older our production goes down, the vaccine you got as a child or your children got is no longer fully protecting them. new recommendation, instead of just a booster for at the time news, every ten years you need a tetanus booster, that first booster should include vaccine that protects against whooping cough called pertussus. >> i have to get a booster on hepatitis. >> hepatitis b, we've been vaccinating for a number of years, babies, but some babies miss out on that, so it's a
