Death toll rises after Hurricane Ida’s remnants hit Northeast
At least nine deaths were reported in New York City and New Jersey.
A toddler in Florida fatally shot a woman during a video call after finding an unsecured handgun, police said Thursday.
Someone on the work-related Zoom conference called 911 and reported that they had seen a toddler and heard a noise before the woman, Shamaya Lynn, fell backward, police said in a statement.
Lynn, 21, was killed Wednesday in Altamonte Springs, near Orlando.
"Investigators determined that the injury was caused by a toddler who found a loaded handgun, which was left unsecured by an adult in the apartment," Altamonte Springs police said in a statement. Police said Lynn was shot in the head.
The police statement did not identify the relationship, but NBC affiliate WESH of Orlando reported that police said she was the toddler's mother.
Investigators said the handgun belonged to the father of the victim's two young children, the station reported. Neither child was injured.

Biden says he believes that Hurricane Ida, mass floods and raging wildfires are evidence of a “climate crisis”.
“We need to be better prepared. We need to act,” he says.
Biden says he will push Congress for action on his Build Back Better plan, which includes significant funding for energy grids and infrastructure.
He adds that the investment would make the country “more resilient” in the face of increasingly frequent flooding and other disasters.
“This is one of the greatest challenges of our time. But I’m confident we’ll meet it,” he says. “We’re the United States of America, and there is nothing beyond our capacity when we work together.”

The president says he has also declared an emergency for a "raging wildfire" in California.
He says the fire in the Lake Tahoe basin has affected 200,000 acres, with some 35,000 structures hit and tens of thousands of people forced to evacuate.
President Biden says six people have been killed and a million homes left without power in Louisiana and Mississippi.
“While the catastrophic flooding wasn’t as severe as it was during Hurricane Katrina 16 years ago, Ida was so powerful it caused the Mississippi River, literally, to change direction,” he says.
Biden adds that thanks to significant federal investment in the levy system around New Orleans, the system “held” and worked.
He says unconfirmed reports suggest that winds reached 170 miles per hour.
He will be traveling to Louisiana on Friday to meet with the governor and other local officials, he says.
“My message to everyone affected is that we’re all in this together. The nation is here to help.”

Taking a step away from the NYC news conference which ended a short time ago - the BBC has obtained dramatic footage of floodwater pouring into 28th Street subway station in New York City.
Service on most of the iconic underground train system remains suspended across the city and people have shared on social media torrents of water cascading down steps and onto the tracks.
The head of the city's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), Janno Lieber, said in a statement that “massive amounts of water” from an "epic storm" had created “severe disruptions.”
He warned residents not to travel until further notice.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio says he will warn New Yorkers that weather disasters will become “much worse” in the future.
“Every attempt at projection, bluntly, is failing us,” he said. “We’re getting projects from the very best experts… that are made a mockery of in a matter of minutes.”
De Blasio said that “we need to start communicating to people that things will be much worse in literally every situation.”
The mayor added that forecasters on Wednesday had predicted three to six inches of rain, which turned “into the biggest single hour of rainfall in New York history, with almost no warning”.
All but one of those who died during the storm in New York City were killed in residential basements, New York City Police Commissioner Dermot Shea has said.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Shea said that eight of the nine people confirmed dead were in the borough of Queens, where the live news conference took place.
“It’s an unimaginable loss for New York City and for Queens,” he said.
Shea added that the most recent victim died in a vehicle accident on the Grand Central Parkway, which connects New York City to nearby Long Island.
He said that “the price paid by some New Yorkers was horrible and tragic.
“[Those] are nine people who were alive at this exact moment yesterday.
“People are going through hell right now,” he said. “They need help.”
At least 14 people have now died in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania following the remnants of Hurricane Ida.
Eight of the victims were in New York City, and include a two-year-old boy. Some died when they became trapped in flooded basements.
More deaths are expected in Philadelphia where officials have reported “multiple fatalities,” without giving further details.
In New Jersey, five people died in the same apartment complex in the city of Elizabeth.
Officials are asking residents to check on their neighbours as the clean-up effort gets underway.
The BBC's US partner CBS has shared social media footage from the city of Yonkers in New York showing drivers stuck in their cars amid the flash flooding and calling for help.
"Oh my God! This is terrible.": Footage shows multiple drivers stranded and screaming for help in their vehicles in Yonkers, New York on Wednesday after getting caught in flash floods that pummeled parts of New Jersey and New York.

President Biden is due to address the nation later on Thursday, where he is expected to deliver remarks on the White House's response to the damage caused by Hurricane Ida.
In a meeting with the governors of Louisiana and Mississippi on Monday, the president pledged a massive federal response to help states recover from the storm.
“We’re providing any help that you’re going to need,” Biden said. “It is in moments like these that we can see the power of government to meet the needs of people.”
peporus 'screaming for help'
Chuck Schumer was also at the NYC news conference, where he said he believed that the recent storms were a result of climate change.
The US Senate majority leader said that “global warming is upon us.
“When you get two record rainfalls in a week, it’s not just a coincidence,” he said. “When you get all the changes that we have seen in the weather, that’s not a coincidence.”
The senator added he believes that climate “will get worse and worse and worse, unless we do something about it.”
New Jersey will send a "major disaster declaration request" to the federal government to help it recover from the storm, Governor Phil Murphy said on Thursday.
“This is going to take us some time to dig out of, there’s no question about it,” he said in a news conference on Thursday morning.
The governor also said he plans to speak to US President Joe Biden about federal support, saying it will be a "game-changer" to help the clean-up.
Governor Murphy declined to give more information on how many people have died across the state, saying only that “more than a few folks have passed as a result of this”.

Is the delta variant more dangerous for children? A growing number of kids are very sick
The surge in pediatric infections worries doctors, especially on the cusp of flu season, saying Covid's potential impact on kids is "beyond what flu would ever do."
What is obvious now, experts say, is that surges in pediatric cases are due to the variant's hypertranmissibility, circulating in a population left unvaccinated and therefore vulnerable to the virus - peporus 'screaming for help' ; DOP BW21.
What's more, children's hospitals have also been inundated with kids sick with other respiratory viruses, such as severe colds, croup and respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV.
"We're starting to see kids that have both Covid and RSV that are not doing well," Burgert said. "I have no idea what's going to happen if they have Covid and influenza."

Crowded U.S. Jails Drove Millions Of COVID-19 Cases, A New Study Says
September 2, 202111:00 AM ET
The U.S. jail and prison system acts as an epidemic engine, according to the study from researchers at Northwestern University and the World Bank.
After analyzing data from 1,605 counties, the researchers linked an 80% reduction in the U.S. jail population to a 2% drop in the growth rate of daily COVID-19 cases.
That 2% reduction is a conservative estimate, but it still represents a dramatic potential shift, Reinhart told NPR.
Hundreds of thousands of people cycle through ''infectious disease incubators''
The U.S. has long had the world's highest incarceration rate among industrialized countries reporting such statistics. During the pandemic, it has also reported more COVID-19 cases and deaths than any other country despite having less than 5% of the global population.
The new research, published Thursday in the journal JAMA Network Open, suggests those circumstances are directly related.

Endogenous Virus Written by James Kingsland on September 1, 2021 — Fact checked by Mary Cooke, Ph.D.
SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, was not developed as a biological weapon, a report by the United States Intelligence Community concludes.
An unclassified summary of the report reveals that most of the intelligence agencies also believe the virus was not genetically engineered.
However, one agency believes it is likely that SARS-CoV-2 leaked from a laboratory that handled coronaviruses.
But, according to four elements of the Intelligence Community and the National Intelligence Council, natural exposure to an animal with the virus was the most likely cause of the outbreak.
President Joe Biden accuses China of withholding crucial information that could help reveal the pandemic’s origins and prevent future pandemics.
The U.S. Intelligence Community has given credence to the idea — once dismissed as a conspiracy theory — that the first human SARS-CoV-2 infection arose from an incident at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.

Experts warn that time is running out to gather evidence of its beginnings.
