Show Notes

The White House is blocking US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Robert Redfield and other officials from the agency from testifying before a House Education and Labor Committee hearing on reopening schools next week, just as the debate over sending children back to classrooms has flared up across the US. CNN's Brian Todd investigates so-called 'Covid parties' as the number of hospitalized coronavirus patients continue to rise. Director of the National Institutes of Health Dr. Francis Collins, who is Dr. Anthony Fauci's boss, is asked about what he would do if he were asked by President Trump to fire Fauci.
