Summary

We’re back for our inaugural Sup Daily Coronacast to cover all the crazy sh*t going on in the news, aka, COVID-19. We check in on the number of cases and fatalities in the United States (and globally) while exploring why cities and states have yet to meaningfully expand testing. Why don’t we have enough swabs?! We run through the emergency relief package signed by the president just as two members of Congress tested positive for coronavirus. We try to answer the infuriating question of why the rich and well-connected are getting tested even without symptoms while extremely ill normies are left hanging. We also run through what this week’s primary meant for the Democratic race. Finally, we're joined by Molly McGrath of the ACLU to talk about the impact of a global pandemic on elections, and how the response is revealing serious flaws in our voting system.
