Week In Sound: NY COVID Shutdowns and White House Superspreader

In New York, Governor Andrew Cuomo shut down non-essential businesses, schools and restricted all gatherings in neighborhoods where the COVID-19 positivity rate is surging. This sparked outrage among members of the Orthodox Jewish community who felt their religious freedom was under attack by the safety restrictions.
