About this episode
We closed down the country because we didn’t have enough COVID-19 tests. Now that testing capacity is improving, there’s another problem: figuring out what all this new data means, and who’s reporting accurate figures.
Guest: Robinson Meyer, staff writer at the Atlantic, and part of the team working on the COVID Tracking Project.
