Description

Today on Political Rewind: The COVID-19 pandemic continues to challenge the nation’s public health efforts as infection rates spike in some counties. With the virus on the minds of voters, the government’s public health response is a top issue on the campaign trail just days before Election Day.

Joe Biden hammered President Donald Trump during a campaign stop in Georgia yesterday, saying the president "surrendered" in the fight against the virus. Likewise, Trump warned voters of a severe shutdown and economic stagnation under a Biden presidency if the former vice president was elected.

Our panel of insiders and experts break down the latest on the pandemic.

Our panelists included: Andy Miller, CEO and Editor of Georgia Health News; Ariel Hart, health reporter for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution; Dr. Harry Heiman, professor in the School of Public Health at Georgia State University; and Kevin Riley, editor of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
