Summary

As the country continues to experience several coronavirus outbreaks, some doctors have signed a letter urging lawmakers to enforce another national shutdown like the one we had back in March. Dr. Seth Trueger, who specializes in Emergency Medicine at Northwestern University and Dr. Marc Siegel, Professor of Medicine at NYU Langone and Fox News Medical Contributor discuss the possibility of schools reopening, what to do when there is a hot spot and the possibility of another COVID-19 shutdown. The U.S. economy isn't showing many signs of a fast recovery, as coronavirus cases continue to surge in parts of the country. Associate Editor at the Wall Street Journal John Bussey weighs in on COVID's toll on the nation's economy and Hitha Herzog, retail analyst and chief research officer at H Squared Research LLC discusses how restaurants and retail continue to be impacted by the virus and what it means for consumers. Plus, commentary by Deroy Murdock, FOX News Contributor and Contributing Editor with National Review. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
