Description

On today’s Sup Daily Coronacast, our hosts walk through the latest numbers on COVID-19 in the US and the increasingly drastic actions governments are taking to flatten the curve, including ordering all New Yorkers and Californians to stay at home indefinitely and invoking emergency war powers to urge industry to manufacture medical supplies. They also look at a CDC study showing young people are more likely to be hospitalized for COVID-19 than we thought. Lastly, they discuss the senators who dumped their stock after being briefed on the threat, all while publicly assuring Americans they weren’t worried at all, protecting their wealth over American lives. Finally, they close out the show with some of the good news listeners have shared over the week.
