The White House Thursday offered a blueprint for states to re-open. It starts with a decline in confirmed cases of COVID-19 and includes extensive testing that does not yet exist.

In the past four weeks, 22 million people have filed for unemployment, nearly wiping out all the job gains since the Great Recession. A group of volunteer EMTs in New Jersey is on the front lines of the coronavirus outbreak.Plus, after seven months in space, astronaut Jennifer Mier returns to a very different reality on Earth.Find and support your local public radio stationSign up for 'The New Normal' newsletterThis episode was recorded and published as part of this podcast's former 'Coronavirus Daily' format.
