Description:

This week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released new data that showed around 60 percent of Americans — more than half of adults and three quarters of children — have now been infected with the coronavirus.

Guest: Apoorva Mandavilli, a science and global health reporter for The New York Times.
