As coronavirus cases continue to surge across the nation, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky joins MSNBC's Ari Melber to discuss the rise in breakthrough cases, the need for booster shots and coronavirus safety fatigue. Walensky also addresses the misinformation perpetuated by conservative politicians and pundits like Fox News' Sean Hannity, asserting "my job is to give accurate information to the American people.
