Summary

A growing number of states and cities are issuing stay at home orders within the last week amid the coronavirus pandemic. Many of the state’s leaders have complained about the lack of robust testing to help mitigate the illness. CDC Director, virologist and member of the White House coronavirus task force, Dr. Robert Redfield is defending the CDC’s testing timeline. He explains why it is important for every American to follow the White House guidelines for the Covid-19 and what the U.S. can learn from this crisis to better prepare the public healthcare system for the future. Italy is now the center of the global pandemic. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich lives in Rome and joins the Rundown to discuss the coronavirus outbreak and what life is like over there. Gingrich also weighs in on how this crisis has greatly damaged our already tense relationship with China. Plus, commentary by FOX Nation host Tom Shillue. Learn more about your ad choices.
