How the White House bungled the COVID-19 response

President Trump told Americans in late January that the government was ready for coronavirus. In an interview with CNBC, on the day Seattle recorded the first U.S. case of COVID-19, Trump said, “We have it totally under control.” Now 220,000 Americans have died from COVID-19, more than 8 million have been infected, and cases and hospitalizations are spiking again.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney looked at why the U.S. failed so stunningly at tackling COVID-19. He’s out with a new documentary called “Totally Under Control.”
