Shownotes Transcript

President-elect Joe Biden said he’ll ask all Americans to wear a mask the first 100 days after he takes office and thinks the country will see “a significant reduction.” Biden also revealed he asked Dr. Anthony Fauci to be a chief medical adviser and part of his Covid-19 response team. The U.S. recently reported its highest one-day Covid-19 death tally with more than 2,800. There’s also at least 100,600 people hospitalized with the virus, a new high since the pandemic began. Dr. Leana Wen is an emergency room physician and the former Baltimore Health Commissioner. She explains to Anderson Cooper why she’s urging Americans to cancel their Christmas and holiday celebrations now. Plus, two legendary journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, whose reporting on the Watergate scandal helped lead to former Pres. Richard Nixon resigning, join AC360 to discuss the similarities and differences between Pres. Trump and Nixon.
